[1991-10-19-USWA-Memphis TV] Interview: Jerry Lawler (again!)

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Better than the first one, but still ... just not great.

[PeteF3]

Lawler rebuts Travis' rebuttal. This feud needs either a decisive blowoff Monday or a hot angle (either literal or figurative) to send it in another direction. Instead, the big sell is "Watch Lawler do something to Travis' jacket." I want to see Eddie Marlin instead.

[Kevin Ridge]

Billy left his ring jacket at the announce desk. Lawler has something special planned for it. Lawler gets another promo in but still not enough to get me really into upcoming match.

[soup23]

Hey, a better Lawler promo. Maybe we can get something out of this heading into next week.

[garretta]

Now we're holding ring jackets hostage? What is this, wrestler's kindergarten? Is the hook for this feud supposed to be whether Lawler or Travis is the bigger brat? And has Travis so much as mentioned once any desire he might have to become Unified champion? If he has, I must have been asleep or daydreaming, because I haven't heard it yet.

 

I agree with Loss; right now the whole Embry/Marlin saga is more entertaining and better executed than this angle is. Given Travis' inferiority in almost every way to Lawler, I doubt this will change any time soon. In fact, what I'd really like to see is Lawler in a second match on the card, teaming with Jeff and Fuller against the Texas Boys in Marlin's place to try to bring at least some closure to that whole mess.

Lawler really does come across as a bully towards Travis these last two weeks. I know Travis broke an autographed guitar and all, but really?
