[1997-08-30-USWA-TV] Interview: Tommy Dreamer / Interview: Jerry Lawler

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Tommy and Beulah are out for an interview. Dreamer cuts an obviously practiced (and stumbled promo but faces the wrong camera the entire time, referencing Austin Idol, Jos Le Duc and Jackie Fargo. By the time Lawler makes it out, Dreamer is gone. Lawler is also upset because now Bill Dundee is the special referee for Dutch vs Dreamer. Lawler takes this chance to throw all sorts of insults toward Dundee and how jealous and resentful he is of both Lawler and Dutch these days. Between this match and Christopher vs Travis, this sounds like a hell of a house show.

[Kevin Ridge]

I wonder was it intentional by USWA to make Dreamer look bad in cutting a promo into the wrong camera. Bill Dundee will be the special referee in Dreamer/Mantell match.

I thought Dreamers promo was ok but not super. Lawler helps him out by explaining the reasoning of why he doesn't want Dutch vs. Dreamer to happen and even throws a ton of digs towards Bill Dundee in the process.

[PeteF3]

Yeah, that sounded pretty scripted, from a guy who for whatever his faults always seemed to be pretty decent at "acting," at least when grading on a pro wrestler's curve. Dreamer is pissed about Bill Dundee being the guest referee for his title match. Lawler cuts a good but rather whiny promo in response.
