[1990-03-03-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler vs Ken Raper

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Lawler is feeling confident, and wrestles the match in street clothes. Lawler wrestling in all black like this is an awesome visual. He makes quick work of Raper and the Jerry Lawler Hour of Destruction finally ends.

Lawler doesn't let mere technicalities like the end of the program stop him from murdering a jobber.

Loved Lawler jumping in his street clothes and cleaning house as Dave runs down the card. I love Jerry Lawler in 1990.

Dave Brown runs down the monday night card while Lawler just beats up him opponent. Amusing that announcer would take that approach.

[Cox]

Poor Ken Raper.

[garretta]

Only Lawler can wrestle and win a match in the last thirty seconds of a program and make it look good. This has to be the best two-week stretch of wrestling TV I've ever seen out of one performer bar none, and I've seen plenty of vintage Flair on TBS. Dave adheres to the format right down to the bitter end, which makes this scene even more incredible. There's no comparing TV like this to the stuff we see today.

Hahahah yet another surreal segment as Dave Brown calmly runs down the upcoming card while Jerry Lawler, clad in black Guess jeans, destroys a jobber named Ken RAPER.

[GSR]

Lawler doesn’t even change into his wrestling gear for this, wrestling the match in his black T-Shirt, jeans and boots that he’s been wearing for the duration of the show. A quick squash that Lawler wins after a fist drop.

[dawho5]

If I didn't love Lawler before this show, I don't know how I could keep that view after.

[Stiva]

Dave Brown casually runs down an upcoming card while Jerry Lawler dishes out another vicious beating. I love how Dave Brown has the detached air of someone who can no longer be surprised by anything Lawler does and simply has to work around it.
