Macho Memphis Maddness



This starts off with a great Macho Man hype video the WWF did after Wrestlemania 8. Macho Man comes into the studio being cheered and quickly turns the fans against him. Macho Man gets across that he has a lot of history in Memphis and really makes the USWA title seem like a huge deal. The fact a former WWF World champion (he had been champ less than a year before) wants the USWA title makes it seem like a huge deal. Makes me really want to see the match.




Kamala vs Jerry Lawler sometime in 1991.

This is a rematch after Lawler regained the USWA title from Kamala. Kamala stays on offense for most of the match. He really wrestles like a savage. But the important thing is he seems like a cunning savage. Not a idiot man child like he was in the WWF in 92/93. Lawler kicks out of the big splash twice which comes across as a big deal. Kamala misses a third then Lawler lowers the strap and starts punching Kamala. He hits the flying fist drop only for Kamala to kick out. Kamala chokes out Lawler causing Lawler to get desperate and throw a fireball.
