Step back into March 1991 with Episode #70 of the Retro Wrestling Re-View: USWA Podcast! Gene Jackson, Josh Briley, and Brian Tramel break down a classic Memphis TV leading into the last Mid-South Coliseum card before the move to the Pipkin Building.

This week’s show features:

  • A wild and unfiltered Terry Funk promo that set Memphis on fire
  • Jerry Lawler’s emotional announcement about possibly stepping away after his showdown with Funk
  • Jackie Fargo named as special referee, drawing heat from Funk and adding high stakes
  • Uncle Danny vs. El Grande Pistolero and the battle over the World Light Heavyweight Title
  • The Texas Bunch (Eric Embry & Dr. Tom Prichard) bringing heat in and out of the ring
  • A young “Stunning” Steve Austin facing off with Jeff Jarrett for the Southern Heavyweight Title
  • Full rundown of the March 11, 1991 Coliseum card and the surprising results
