Loss Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Lawler is back out and is bandaged up. He does a great promo vowing revenge, and says they've forgotten everything Jackie Fargo instilled in them. I'm already sucked into this feud, even though I was enjoying Lawler vs Gilbert on top.

soup23 Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 This may just be a Memphis thing but can we please have at least a week to pass where Jerry is laid out for the attack before he comes charging out. This is not as bad as him getting run over and vowing revenge 10 minutes later, but it is pretty close with him taking a banned move on the concrete floor. People criticize WWE for not having the balls to leave Cena off tv but this is a more egregious example in my eyes. Promo was good but way too soon .

PeteF3 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Lawler is back out--he would have expected Cornette to be a sellout but expresses disappointment with the Fabulous Ones apparently not having any pride of their own. Lawler & Dundee vs. the Fabs for Monday. I guess at this point they felt they couldn't run a MSC show without Lawler on the bill, but yeah, you'd think they could have the Fabs go over a team like Dundee & Davis first. A great promo, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Lawler comes out for his interview. After taking a spike piledriver on the floor probably should have kept him off the rest of the show. Takes me back to the angle where Gilbert ran him over with a car and he came back on same show to cut promo. I think it just minimizes these attacks when he comes back so easily on same show.

garretta Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 If you've almost been run over by a car, what's a little thing like a spike piledriver on the concrete floor? Seriously, there were times that Memphis tried to function without Lawler in the past, and they ended up taking a bath at the gate. It's part of the logic of the territory by now that Lawler will be there every single Monday night regardless of what's done to him, so talking about how an injury should be sold or anything else similar is useless. Memphis chose to throw that kind of storytelling out the window long ago, and that's how they're surviving. What would you rather have if you're Jerry Jarrett: a half-full MSC with Dundee/whoever on top against the Fabs and Lawler selling the injury like a dedicated wrestler should, or a jam-packed MSC with Lawler no-selling the injury, on top with Dundee against the Fabs, and beating the living hell out of everything that moves like the attack on TV never happened? If the fans don't care about logic, why should you as the promoter? Since they're mentioning Fargo on TV, I'd expect to see him before too long to counteract Corny. I'm interested to see if he can say more than "You stink!" and "pally" in a promo. I'm sure he was a great talker in his day, but in one promo on the eighties Memphis set, he must have told Jimmy Hart that he stank thirty times in sixty seconds!
