[1994-05-07-USWA-TV] Jerry Lawler vs Dream Machine

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Highlights of a taped fist match from Mid South Coliseum. Looks like another brutal match with DM bleeding hardaway above the eye again. DM eats a piledriver on a chair and a few fistdrops. Jeff Jarrett runs in to attack Lawler and the referee and the heels do a number on Lawler. Billy Travis attempts a save and gets cut off. Good stuff, but the post-match goes a little long. I would have rather have seen more of the actual match, but that's Memphis.

Clips of Lawler in control of the match and Double J shows up! He hits a dropkick in the post match beat down. That felt out of place. Jarrett and Machine keep the ring cleared for a very long time. Christopher tries to help but gets hit from behind by Gilbert. Jarrett ends up tossing Christopher into the ring post which was a nice bump.

I wish I could have seen the whole match. Jeff Jarrett comes out and beats on Lawler and others who try to come out and save him. DM joins in as well. The post-match was too long but the angle was good. Good stuff overall.

Cool beatdown for Jarrett but it did go on forever. Christopher ring post show was a highlight in the later stages of this.

LANCE! Back in the studio! For good (?). I think I said this at Memphis Memories, but all is right with the world.

 

Lawler seemingly has Dream Machine beat in a taped-fist match, but Jeff Jarrett makes a shock appearance and a 2-on-1 beatdown is on. For a guy still relatively new to heeldom, Jeff applies a damned effective-looking beating. A dropkick in cowboy boots rarely fails to be awesome. The attack goes on for a little while, but was still a pretty crazy event.

Also, Russell's incredulous response to the footage is really great. To him, having missed the heel turn in December, Jarrett was still a wide-eyed youngster.
