September 6, 201114 yr comment_5481905 This took place at the Mid South Fair. Fans were throwing things constantly. Also at the end of the video is Taz's only appearance in the studio.
September 25, 201213 yr comment_5515688 I wanted to see more of Taz! JYD wasn't much help to Lawler during the match. Ferris Wheel made for a nice background visual.
August 30, 201312 yr comment_5559543 A giddy Richard Lee Heyman is out to buy the WMC studio and make it LeeTV. Clips from the Memphis Fairgrounds of Lawler & JYD vs. the Moondogs with the Moondogs getting a tag title shot if they win. Lee supplies wonderfully obnoxious two-faced commentary, and the Dogs get the win with the help of a "scientific finishing maneuver" (a bone to the head). Jarrett's not arrived yet, so Lee has to wait for his title shot. Lee is still happy, because he gets to bring out his newest protoge, the TAZMANIAC!
September 11, 201312 yr comment_5561864 Moondogs attacked Lawler & JYD at an outdoor show with a ferris wheel in the background. Onto a match where one dog hits Lawler with the bone and Spot pins him. This feud feels like its just about lost all its steam here.
February 8, 201411 yr comment_5586951 I thought the Moondogs feud was over at this point. It was nice to see JYD. Were they just bringing the Moondgos back to try to rekindle interest and boost attendance again?
April 12, 20169 yr comment_5741326 They had to get the belts off of Lawler and Jeff somehow, so there was due to be at least one last major confrontation between the two teams. What I don't understand is how beating Lawler and JYD gets the Dogs a title shot. Where was Jeff? Was he out injured or something? I notice in the clip that Grandpa Eddie says that the Dogs will have to wait for the match because Jeff isn't at the studio yet; I don't like where that could be leading. Watch out, King! Richard Lee turns in his best performance in quite a while, and his chemistry with Dave is amazing. The match itself isn't much at all, but hearing Lee almost bust a gut with happiness over outsmarting Lawler and defend the Dogs' blatant rulebreaking at every turn is worth the time. Hopefully we see more of this Lee in the future. From facepainted freak to the Human Suplex Machine, Taz came a long way in a hurry, and thank God for that!
April 13, 20169 yr comment_5741871 Was he already doing Double J that soon? I don't remember him doing anything else for Vince before the Attitude Era.
April 14, 20169 yr comment_5742349 No, just some matches against Iron Mike Sharpe and Barry Horowitz. It was reported that he didn't get over at all during those house show bouts.
April 14, 20169 yr comment_5742451 If he did his Memphis stuff with no alterations, it's no wonder. He wasn't as vanilla as some like to claim, but he didn't exactly ooze charisma either. Thanks, AJ!
