Episode 70: Memphis - March 30, 1985 (King Hospitalized, Lanny's Suit of Armor)

  • Summary

  • Another super fun Memphis 85 edition of Regional Rasslin', as Gene Jackson returns as guest co-host. This week we talk March 30th TV through April 5th on the CWA circuit. The Macho Man's reign as Southern Champion intensifies when he puts Jerry Lawler out on a stretcher, into an ambulance, and off to the local hospital. Will the King ever return to Memphis? Lanny Poffo dons his infamous suit of armor... in front of a castle... to recite a poem... in tornado like winds... Plus, Stan Lane takes a jab at Randy Savage in hilarious fashion. The PYT Express continue dominance as Koko Ware finds another victim for his epic Brainbuster. Sweet Daddy Siki returns for his second week of TV as he takes on (and confuses) The Invader. Eddie Gilbert has a big surprise for Dutch Mantel. Steve Constance has ONE move to do... and even messes THAT up. A rare TV win for the Batten Twins. The Pom-pom girls are in town just as Lawler leaves.. coincidence? Prelim wrestler Gary Jackson hails from where??? Nepotism continues as booker Tom Renesto's OTHER son "Tom Branch" arrives. Other action with Mike Sharpe, Jerry Oski, and so much more. Come join us for 100 minutes of laughs and good old school rasslin action in the Memphis territory!
