  • Episode #32: USWA Christmas Extravaganza!
    2024/12/25

    Merry Christmas! On this week's episode, there's no review as Gene, Josh, & Richard are joined by frequent guest host Brian Tramel for the Inaugural Christmas Special of the Retro Wrestling Re-View Podcast! It's all Christmas themed non-sense from beginning to end as the guys give out Christmas gifts to the various USWA wrestlers they've seen in action so far in 1993! Plus, "Bert" stops by to sing Jingle Bells, BT reads his version of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, "Miss Texas" recites a parody of "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer" about Miss Simpson, "Santa Claus" stops by to let the gang know who is on the "naughty & nice" lists this year, and then MeeMaw has her own version of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' that serves as the 'main event' of this episode! It's a lot of fun and silliness, we hope everyone checks it out and has a VERY Merry Christmas!!

  • Episode #31: USWA TV 7/10/93 (Burn Baby Burn! Disco Inferno & Vampire Warrior Arrive!)
    2024/12/18

    On this week's episode, we revisit the July 10th 1993 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling! Fresh off regaining the Unified World title from Owen Hart on July 5th, Bert Prentice introduces a new challenger for the King who promises to "drain all the blood of the King's living body!" Johnny Polo reappears after being AWOL for a few weeks to take on the "Fabulous One" Jeff Jarrett! Polo also introduces us to his friend, the Disco Inferno who is here to challenge "Nightmare" Danny Davis for the USWA Middleweight title!

    Bert Prentice now manages the new USWA Tag Team Champions "Principal" C.W. Bergstrom & Melvin Penrod Jr but Bert's "other tag team" Simply Divine want their shot at the titles, Bert's time as Dunn & King's manager may be done, perhaps even…."WELL DUNN". Plus: Scott Taylor & Randy Rockett in tag team action and the main event of the show is Jerry 'the King' Lawler vs. Brian Christopher w/Miss Simpson!

    On this week's episode, we revisit the June 12, 1993 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling!

"Principal" C.W. Bergstrom is still at war with Jeff Gaylord with his paddle, the "board of education" at the forefront, PG-13 are still M.I.A. yet "The Natural" Bo Alexander is still here as is Mark Freer, Miss Texas has words for Miss Simpson, Dave Brown is still on a mission to get Brian Christopher to sign a contract to face Jeff Jarrett but Brian still refuses, so now he has to face…..CONTRACT Inc!! (Yes, that's someone's name apparently), plus we've got a tag team MAIN EVENT that features USWA Tag Team Champions Simply Divine (Rex King/Steve Doll) taking on Jerry 'the King' Lawler/Jeff Jarrett. Sadly, Richard is away this week, however Gene & Josh welcome special guest co-host Brian Tramel to stand in for him.

  • Episode #26: USWA TV 6/5/93 (The Undertaker is coming to Memphis!)
    2024/11/13

    This week we travel back to the June 5th 1993 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling where some new faces are making their debut! "The Natural" Bo Alexander is here looking like a younger less buff version of "Golden Boy" Chic Donovan. Then we meet Ronnie Lotz all the way from Chicago with his tag team, The Untouchables. Jerry Lawler fresh off winning the #1 Contender's Tournament for Papa Shango's Unified World title gets convinced by Bert Prentice to put it on the line in a match against Rex King. We hear from Jeff Gaylord who takes on Reggie B. Fine in a singles match, then in the main event Jeff Jarrett teams with Miss Texas against the Master of Terror and Brandi Wine in a mixed tag team match! PLUS: Miss Simpson is here "cleaning up" Dave Brown and Corey Maclin while calling out Miss Texas! Meanwhile, Brian Christopher refuses to defend the Southern Heavyweight Championship against Jeff Jarrett and in turn Eddie Marlin is forcing him to defend the title against the Undertaker!

  • Episode #25: USWA 5/29/1993 (A Tournament for a shot at Papa Shango!)
    2024/11/06

    On this week's episode, the boys revisit May 29, 1993 where the USWA is preparing for a big tournament to determine a challenger for Papa Shango's Unified World Championship. Also on this week's show, PG-13 face USWA Tag Team Champions Simply Divine (Rex King/Steve Doll) w/Bert Prentice in a non-title match. Mark Freer arrives in the USWA and is immediately propositioned by Bert Prentice! (to be his manager that is) "Jennifer on the Road" pays a visit to Jerry Lawler's house to see his Coca-Cola Collection and some of his art work amongst other things. Jeff Jarrett who was just recently in a serious auto accident with Promoter/Grandfather Eddie Marlin, has a serious message for everyone. Miss Texas still plans to "beat Miss Simpson like she owns her". Brian Christopher cuts a promo that you just have to hear to believe that it happened on Memphis TV in 93 and then he proceeds to beat Miss Texas with a belt like he… nevermind…just check out the show!
