Re-View #55: USWA 12/11/93 (The Gilberts Reunite!)
06/04/25 • 100 min
This week, the gang is watching the December 11, 1993 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling and there's a lot packed into this one! The last time we saw both Eddie and Doug Gilbert here in the USWA in 1993, they were at war with EACH OTHER! By now a few months have passed and they've settled their differences and now they're back in the USWA to do the bidding of Toni Adams against Brian Christopher and Jerry 'the King' Lawler! However, BC and the King have a surprise in store for them as they have acquired the "services" of a "valet" who they say is "TWICE the woman that Toni Adams is!" So with that being said, BERTHA will be in their corner this week and you just have to see BERTHA to believe it! A very fun and memorable segment for sure!
Plus: the brand new USWA Tag Team Champions The War Machines are in action with their manager Lee Womack against Del Rios & Tony Williams. Far 2 Wild (Todd Morton/Chris Michaels take on Doug & Eddie Gilbert w/Toni Adams, The Vampire Warrior is back, old favorite "Mr. Clyde" is back (sorta), and in the main event of the show Jerry Lawler & Brian Christopher team with "Little Eagle" against PG-13 with "Midget D"! Even Richard couldn't find much to complain about this week!

Re-View #54: USWA 12/4/93 (The War Machines Arrive!)
This week the gang re-views the 12/4/93 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling! A lot is happening is this week's episode as some people have left the territory (Rex Hargrove for one) and some people have returned (Buddy Landel/Don Bass/Doug Gilbert). There's a shocking heel turn in a tag team match to start the show (well, maybe not THAT shocking). The brand new USWA Tag Team Champions Jeff Gaylord & Mike Anthony defend the titles in a rematch with PG-13 w/Midget D. Reggie B. Fine introduces a new manager named Lee Womack! Who is Lee Womack? Where did he come from? Who knows, they didn't tell us, but he's here now! Not only is Lee Womack here, he has a brand new tag team called the War Machines who we may have seen here before "catching dogs" if you get my drift. Plus, we hear from Brian Christopher and Jerry Lawler, and Toni Adams is looking for revenge on Brian Christopher for making her eat dog food last week!
