[1990-07-14-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler and Dirty White Boys

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

We join a Dirty White Boys squash in progress. They continue attacking their opponents after the match until Jerry Lawler makes the save with a baseball bat. He gives Tom Burton a piledriver to take him out of commission, then we have a chair/bat fight between Lawler and DWB.

Anthony looks good, giving us a dropkick in addition to all of his other crisp offense. The DWBs continue beating down their opponents after the match until Jerry Lawler walks tall with a baseball bat. I liked Lawler's savate kick to set up the piledriver on Burton--don't think I've seen that out of him.

Haven't seen much of Burton before and he looks only adequate. The beatdown and piledriver from Lawler was a good way to eliminate him.

A nice angle that sets up the tag match.

[Kevin Ridge]

Dirty White Boys beat some locals. Anthony hits a nice swinging neckbreaker. Lawler hits the ring with a bat. Lawler piledrives Burton in the ring. Anthony grabs a chair and him and Lawler of a weapon swinging contest. Anthony is starting to get this thing together.

I think I like the idea of a Lawler/Anthony feud; I'm not so sure about Burton. I'll say this for Anthony; he doesn't back down or run scared from the King, and Lawler's at his best when he's made to fight, whether he's a face or a heel.

 

Nice to see Ben Jordan still wrestling after what Lawler put him through earlier this year.

Lawler swings and hits the ropes with the bat and for a second I thought I just swung and hit whichever dirty white boy was nearby. Sets up the big tag match coming up.

[GSR]

The Dirty White Boys defeat Ken Raper & Ben Jordan after Tom Burton pins Raper following an assisted leg drop. They attack them after the match, including a nice swinging neck breaker by Anthony on Jordan, until a baseball bat swinging Jerry Lawler makes the save. A piledriver to Burton and Tony Anthony is back in the ring with a chair. He starts swinging it at ‘The King’ who is able to block the shots with his bat, and when the White Boy drops the chair he gets out of their sharpish.

 

I liked this a lot and am certainly looking forward to more Jerry Lawler vs Tony Anthony down the road.

Tony Anthony really impresses in both interviews and the ring. Lawler is a force of nature, but now on the right side of the fence.
