Loss Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 The finish of what looks to be a fantastic match from Mid South Coliseum. Don't worry, there's Gilbert/Jarrett in full still ahead on this and the 1991 Yearbook, and it doesn't disappoint, so brace yourselves. Jarrett is covered in blood and is punching the hell out of Gilbert. The ring fills up to pull them apart. Back at the studio, a bandaged Gilbert is out for an interview. He thinks Lawler's mystery opponent on Monday night is finally going to result in a new USWA champ. He does a great interview to get over his own credibility, and is very serious in his delivery. He is putting his hair on the line against the Southern title on Monday night. He is temporarily drowned out by a "We don't wanna hear it" chant. This may be the best Eddie Gilbert interview ever, which is really saying something. He wraps up by accusing Jerry Jarrett of giving Dave Brown bonuses to say nice things about his son and Jerry Lawler. Dave Brown is NOT happy with this and tears into him in his Dave Brown way.

PeteF3 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Gilbert vs. Jarrett from the MSC ends in a bloody pull-apart, and this week Gilbert is, for the first time in his career, putting his hair on the line vs. Jarrett's Southern title. Gilbert says that with the new decade, he'll be the new King of Memphis by taking the Southern title, long thought to be Jerry Lawler's belt. Then he accuses Dave Brown of getting extra pay-offs from Jerry Jarrett for toeing the company line about Jeff Jarrett and Jerry Lawler, and Brown yanks the mic away and actually cuts a killer promo of his own describing the difference in how Jarrett and Gilbert both grew up. Dave is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Jarrett has hit another gusher. Sam Lowe gets pushed aside and Frank Morell is not too bothered to break them up. Shockingly the heat doesn't seem good for this because the action is fierce. Gilbert cuts ones of the best promos in a year of great promos. The studio crowd helps this out by barking at him. Loving this feud and all the individuals involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Match has already ended but Gilbert and Jarrett still brawling. Other wrestlers struggle to keep them a part. Gilbert says he doesn’t want to talk about Lawler but then compares himself to Jerry. Anyways, he wants to be the Southern Champion. Eddie is putting his hair on the line in monday night’s match for the Southern title. Gilbert talks about George Bush Sr breaking promises. Gilbert moves back to talking about Lawler’s World title. Eddie gets into it with Dave Brown. Dave totally calls out Eddie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 I liked this interview a lot, especially Dave telling the truth about Eddie's obsession with Lawler, right down to wanting the Southern heavyweight title because everyone thinks of it as "Lawler's belt". By his own admission, he's more concerned about being Southern champion than challenging Lawler for the Unified title, and that's strange to say the least. Dave doesn't need to get too heated in order for his point about the differences between Eddie and Jeff to be made, but as you'd expect, Eddie's too wrapped up in his own world for it to sink in. I'm glad we'll see plenty more from the Gilbert/Jarrett feud in the weeks and months to come. I liked Eddie's reference to President Bush breaking promises. That's how you use current events in wrestling: sparingly and always to reinforce a point about the angle you're trying to put across. I also liked the story he told about refusing the young Lawler fans his autograph. His mission is to be the anti-Lawler at all times and in all ways, and so far he's been a rousing success. As for the match clip, I have no idea why the crowd wasn't hotter, but the announcing was awful. There was no emotion at all in either man's voice, which made a truly heated and bloody brawl into something pedestrian. I recognized Michael St. John's voice, and boy, has he gone downhill. I have no idea who the other joker is, but Papa Jerry can fire him anytime he wants to as far as I'm concerned. I know Craig Johnson has ties to Dallas and Dave's busy at WMC, but they simply have to get better announcing for the MSC shows. If nothing else, have Dave voice over the raw film during the Saturday morning show. They're the number three promotion in this country (admittedly, by default) and they need to start acting like it at least a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawho5 Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Want to see this match in full. Gilbert cuts a Hell of a promo, but Dave somehow tops him in his own way. Love you Dave Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
