March 19, 201114 yr comment_5467661 I don't know if it was the week before or the week after where Bert basically gave Eddie a lapdance to Achey Breaky Heart. Eddie quit shortly after this.
July 17, 201114 yr comment_5476966 Fired up Eddie was great. It's such a shame that their isn't near the promo guys anymore.
March 5, 201213 yr comment_5496315 I don't know if it was the week before or the week after where Bert basically gave Eddie a lapdance to Achey Breaky Heart. Eddie quit shortly after this. That was the previous week, and what he was supposed to go out there and talk about. All the other stuff (about being overlooked etc) was supposedly a legit shoot and he was fired right after this promo.
July 16, 201312 yr comment_5552240 Eddie thinks he’s stepson of USWA watching other guys walking around with the belts. He should be a main event wrestler. He did seem legit angry.
November 15, 201311 yr comment_5572612 Eddie being Eddie, despite being a babyface he shoots about a lack of title shots and not being a "first match boy" or "second match boy." He does turn this back to Bert Prentice and the Rock 'n Roll Phantom. Killer promo, too bad it led to yet another Gilbert downfall.

February 25, 201510 yr comment_5656063 Eddie throws some shade USWA's way. I love these Gilbert promos but it is sad knowing what is coming around the corner of him leaving another promotion.
July 3, 20169 yr comment_5758456 This was great, and I'm wondering what about it was objectionable other than Eddie not sticking to script. Did he use too many insider terms that the fans weren't supposed to know? Was it that he came off as too much of a complaining heel when he was supposed to be working as a face? Or was it that he was only in the USWA to do what he was doing (wrestling midcarders and feuding with Doug) and they had no intention of repushing him to any titles, which he called them out on here? Dave handled this like it was part of the show from start to finish, even talking about how Eddie had the right to be angry after some of the things that had happened to him lately. If he knew that Eddie was speaking out of turn, he certainly didn't try to stop it or redirect the conversation like you'd think he would, and in fact had done quite often in the past.
