USWA

5/3 in Dallas drew 918 fans with all seats at $5 for the Cinco De Mayo card. The only title change during the week took place on this card as Eric Embry won the Southern title from Jeff Jarrett in a bloodbath when Tom Prichard hit Jarrett with Tojo Yamamoto's briefcase and Embry pinned him. Don't know if they're going to acknowledge this title change in Memphis or not, however they've yet to announce in Memphis that Jerry Lawler beat Embry the previous Friday in Dallas to win the Texas title, partially because Lawler is still "supposed" to be injured in Memphis. The USWA Dallas show airs in Memphis in syndication with Lawler on this past Saturday (even though his last week in Dallas he acknowledged his injury and that he'd be out of action for a month). Also at the Sportatorium, Embry & The Boogie Man beat Gary Young & Terry Garvin when Embry pinned Garvin with his feet on the ropes, Private Terry Daniels pinned El Grande Pistolero, Bill Dundee & Danny Davis beat Texas Hangmen in a non-title double chain match, Jarrett & Robert Fuller beat Steve Austin & Tom Prichard when Jeff pinned Austin after hitting him with Tojo's briefcase, El Gran Maya pinned El Jimines, El Grande Colosso pinned Mascara Del Fuego and Tony Torres won a five-man Battle Royal involving the previous four named wrestlers and himself. The only matches that got any heat were the Jarrett-Fuller tag match and the Embry-Jarrett singles match.

5/10 in Dallas will be headlined by a 12-man Texas Roundup (Royal Rumble rules Battle Royal), Young vs. Pistolero, Tony Falk vs. J.C. Ice Baby, Karate Kid vs. Little Tokyo in a midget match, Davis vs. Gran Colosso for the USWA lightheavyweight title, Dundee vs. Boogie Man and Jarrett & Fuller vs. Prichard & Embry.

4/29 in Memphis drew 700 as Davis drew Hangman Psycho, Dundee pinned Hangman Killer, Fuller DDQ Prichard, Jarrett pinned Austin, Embry DDQ Eddie Gilbert in a chain match and Gilbert was "injured" after the match when all the heels jumped him so the Thunderdome match ended up being 5-on-4 with the heels (Embry-Austin-Prichard-Hangmen) beating the faces (Jarrett-Fuller-Davis-Dundee).

Jarrett was in an auto accident Sunday afternoon which could have ended up a lot worse than it did. Jarrett was going through Jackson, TN. Another guy, whose car was out of control, apparently because the brakes failed, spun across the divider and ended up in a head-on with Jarrett's car. Even though Jeff's car wound up banged up to where it looked like an accordion and also both cars burst into flames, Jeff managed to get out of his car through the window before the car burst into flames. He was treated for three hours in the hospital before he was released. There were seven others, none of the rest wrestlers, who were also treated from the wreck.

5/6 in Memphis had a Texas Brawl in a cage with the same 10 wrestlers who were scheduled to go at it the previous week. Also Steve Keirn vs. Eric Embry in a Lights Out match, Embry vs. Eddie Gilbert (yes, both Embry and also Keirn are working three times on this show) in a match where both men will where gloves with barbed wire on them, Jarrett & Fuller vs. Prichard & Hangman Psycho, Keirn vs. Austin, Dundee vs. Hangman Killer and if Bill wins, he gets five minutes with J.C. Ice (his son) but if Killer wins, J.C. gets five minutes with Bill with Bill's hands tied behind his back and the opener has Karate Kid vs. Little Tokyo.

4/20 in Nashville drew 500 as Pistolero pinned Davis *, Ice Baby pinned Night Train Jackson **, Keirn & Dundee beat Hangmen **3/4, Jarrett & Fuller beat Prichard & Austin in 20 minutes when Jarrett hit Austin with Tojo's briefcase ***1/2, Embry beat Gilbert via DQ in a great brawl ***.

Former area wrestlers Chris Champion, Tom Burton and Terry Adonis are working small-time cards in Northern Tennessee and Kentucky for Dale Mann. Adonis does a Khan from Mongolia gimmick.
