[1990-05-11-USWA Texas] Jeff Jarrett & Billy Joe Travis vs Dirty White Boy & John Tatum
I liked Travis as a heel so lets see how he does as a good guy. Pringle refers to Gossett as porky. Gossett getting more physically involved. They cut to the wrong camera at the finish but Jarrett runs Anthony into Gossett. Jarrett practically bumps himself for Gossett’s awful clotheslines. He then does a couple fall over splashes where he gets no distance off the ground. I can’t believe they let him get so physically involved. Making him out like he is Earthquake.

[1990-05-11-EMLL] El Dandy & El Satanico & Emilio Charles Jr vs Atlantis & Javier Cruz & Angel Azteca
Lots of posturing and bravado being displayed during the ring introductions. Nice German suplex by El Dandy. Good fast paced action to finish the first fall. Dandy is getting most of the ring time and looking good in there. Second fall was really rushed. Satanico has a bulldog for all three of his opponents. Double shoulders down pinfall finish. Good match. I presume we are not finished here.

[1990-05-05-USWA-Championship Sports] Steve Austin and Chris Adams
Austin has Adam’s old boots and his ex-wife. He also has his dog which he likes to kick around. Jeannie thinks Adams is jealous of Austin. Adams and Jeannie gets face to face so Austin attacks Chris. They roll around on the floor before Adams gets the advantage. Jeannie has some tear gas according to Marc Lowrance. She sprays it in Adams eyes. Marc seems more concerned that his chair is being used in the attack.

[1990-05-05-NWA-Worldwide] Ric Flair vs Lex Luger
No to the ponytail on Flair. Sting is in Luger’s corner while Ole is backing up Flair. Teddy wants the referee to disqualify Luger for launching himself over the top rope. Lots of clotheslines and press slams from Luger. He gets in a top rope suplex and that’s enough for Ole as he gets involved. Arn shows up too. Sting tries to help out but Windham blindsides him. Horsemen go after Sting’s leg until the Steiners show up.

Warrior actually makes more sense when he’s not trying to out duel Hogan on the craziness.

[1990-05-04-USWA Texas] Bill Dundee vs John Tatum
Dundee has a couple kisses for some ringside female fans. There seems to be a giant fan somewhere in the arena that is blowing everyone’s hair around. Tatum is very aggressive towards his valet Tessa. I am not familiar with Tatum outside of him being involved with Missy. Damn out of position referees. Works to Tatum’s advantage as he gets to use the purse to get the win.

[1991-04-18-PWA] Lightning Kid vs Jerry Lynn (No DQ)
Both guys slugging it out. Kid gets clotheslined to the outside. Missed dive off the top turnbuckle to the outside by Lynn. Seemed like he was worried about hitting the ceiling. Kid pushes a couple fans. Weird to see him as a heel due to his age and size. Audio of announcer makes it seem like he is doing a weather report during a Hurricane. We got someone smoking in front of the camera. Top rope moves look so dangerous in this building. Lynn wins with a good old fashion bulldog. Pretty good match which was more intense than I expected. Would have blown me away if I was watching it in 1990.

[1990-04-30-AWA] Interview: Ric Flair
Flair has the hair all slick backed in a pony tail. Ric talking about his expensive suits and shoes. Save that money Nature Boy. He’s got some words for Larry Z.

[1990-04-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Hart Foundation vs Rockers
Good action to start. Harts using quick tags and bending the rules slightly as Jesse says. Here’s Demolition at ringside to scout both teams I presume. Has Bret ever hit his middle rope elbow drop? Similar to the Dibiase version that never connects. Demolition end up getting involved trying to get Michaels back in the ring. Match ends as disqualification. Was going pretty good until the finish.
