[1991-01-12-USWA-Memphis TV] Fabulous Ones vs Dirty White Boy & Doug Gilbert

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Highlights from Mid South Coliseum of the Fabs beating DWB and Doug Gilbert to regain the tag team titles in their first match back in the promotion. Looking at gates around this time, this looks to be somewhere in the middle of where they normally were, but the return didn't draw as much as you'd think, at least not the first time out.

Interested to see the Fabs in this run and this looks like the winding down point for DWB/Gilbert at this juncture.

Lane is working pretty half-assed here. The Fabs' return came off as a big moment but the title change less so.

Cornette has his wrestling tights on. It’s not the full match but finish seemed rushed a bit and flat finish for title change. It seemed that the crowd was down compared to previous cards in 1990.

This match definitely had a "hurry up and get it over with" feel to it. Then again, if Eddie was gone, Doug was probably headed out right behind him, so they wanted a title change as quickly and definitively as they could get it.

 

I know we only saw a few short clips, but I didn't see Kim anywhere around, and I would have thought we'd have at least one interference spot from her so Corny could counteract it. If she wasn't even at ringside, you know this was a rush job. At any rate, even if the title change was a little flat, the aftermath definitely wasn't.

Hmmm cool to see the Fabulous Ones back, I'm not sure how long they stay or what exactly happens with them here so I'm excited to see where this goes.

Jan. 1991 rules, on top of everything else I've watched, the Fabs are back and this leads to them attaching Lawler in the studio. Cornette is with them, and I couldn't ask for much else. Love this. Love Jan. 1991!

This looked sloppy from the brief clips we got. Can't say it left me wanting to see the whole match.
