Superstar Sleeze Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 AWA World Heavyweight Champion Jerry Lawler vs WCWA World Heavyweight Champion Kerry Von Erich- Memphis 6/28/88 Im very interested in how Kerry is played here. He is the ultimate superhero babyface but this Memphis, Tennessee and you're in Lawler country brutha. I would say we are clipped 8 minutes in. Tempers are flaring and Kerry is throwing sweat at Lawler. Kerry grabs a sleeper twice before Lawler runs his head in the buckles. It is usually Kerry doing that to Flair. Lawler gets his own sleeper and then front chancery. Kerry suplexes but Lawler hangs on. They both are down from a double cross body block. The Fuller Famiky and a masked man attack both men. Kerry and Jeff Jarrett clear the ring. Pretty standard match but we didn't get to see much, Kerry was definitely putting over Lawler...wait...Kerry is asking for the match to be restarted...Jerry agrees... Electric close that makes you really want to see the rematch. Kerry gets a roll up right away as the bell sounds. Lawler takes exception to this. The King BLOCKS The Discus Punch! Lawler knocks him silly with a right. Kerry is selling like a heel! Lawler destroys him with punches. This is heated. Fist drop! Another THE CLAW! KERRY GETS THE CLAW! Great selling by Lawler, huge moment. Lawler fights back and punches him over the top rope. Brawl on the outside! Discus Punch! Double count out. before the match it is good match, but after the restart is when it gets hot. I'm excited for the rematch. ***1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
