Championship Gold - Championship Wrestling From Memphis recap for May 22, 2021



"The Memphis Mauler" Alan Steel and Johnny Dotson show up and are interviewed by Dustin Starr at the announce table in the debuting Wrestlecenter. Steel has the feeling he was not wanted as the first Memphis Heritage Champion, and Dotson says he and Steel are the hottest thing going around here. Steel says he and Dotson are the highlights in Championship Wrestling From Memphis, then we see a video package chronicling events from Steel and Dotson's debut and Steel's win in the Grind City Rumble. Steel then says that Dotson's opinion is the only one that matters, and says that in just a little while, they will make one more highlight when Jerry Jarrett awards him the Memphis Heritage Championship and raises their hands in victory.



We see footage of The Posse helping to build the announce table for the Wrestlecenter after The Posse shows up wearing hard hats. Dustin and Maria find out they are on The Posse's "no-prank" list as it is announced that The Posse will be facing The Skimahorns (Brad and Briar Skimahorn).





The Posse (Simon and Lil' Chris) beat The Skimahorns (Brad and Briar Skimahorn). After the match, The Skimahorns are angry with their inability to win and people showing up to play games, and Brad says that back-up is coming while Briar says it is "all a political game."





Dustin Starr interviews "Smokin' Hot" Nikki Lane at the announce desk after some highlights. Nikki says she did what she came to do: slay "The Queen of the Gulf Coast" Katelynn Black and dethrone Derrick King. She says that she is now focused on winning the women's championship. Afterwards, Eric McMahon makes a surprise appearance, saying he fired Super Ed after neither of them showed up at the Grind City Rumble, then says his new client Paris Kelly was in a bad accident a couple of weeks ago. Paris Kelly shows up, and we then see a picture of her from after the accident. Eric then calls out Diana Taylor, who is about to face Nikki Lane, and Diana says that she did not mean to hurt anybody. Eric McMahon demands an apology, and when Diana apologizes, Eric says it is not good enough and to not talk to his client, for they will be suing her in county court for damages.





"Smokin' Hot" Nikki Lane beats Diana Taylor by count-out when Diana Taylor leaves and heads to the back, unable to focus on the match with Eric McMahon and Paris Kelly at ringside.



Dustin Starr interviews "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock at the announce desk. Blaylock demands he be called a director, not a wrestling manager, and says he directs people to kick butt and that he will do this as he directs the "Hollywood Horror Show." As he says he does not care about "The GunShow" Brett Michaels - whom he calls "a big crybaby" - Brett Michaels shows up and Dustin Starr is caught between them. Brett Michaels says the fans know he should be Memphis Heritage Champion right now, then heads to the ring after apologizing to Maxx Stone, saying Jimmy "cost [him] every bit of this right now."



"The GunShow" Brett Michaels beats Maxx Stone. After the match, Brett Michaels chases "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock to the back, then it is announced that Brett Michaels will get a one-on-one Memphis Heritage Championship match against Alan Steel in two weeks. Brett Michaels says he has bigger fish to fry after what's happened to him in Championship Wrestling From Memphis so far, and that he will become the next Memphis Heritage Champion.



"The Memphis Mauler" Alan Steel and Johnny Dotson show up accusing Dustin Starr of being friends with "The GunShow" Brett Michaels and giving out title shots, then Steel demands to know how much longer he has to wait to be given the Memphis Heritage Championship. After being told that Jerry Jarrett is indeed here, Steel says he and Dotson are the only people they worry about and demands that Jerry Jarrett get out to the ring.

Action Jackson beats "The King of Pow" Chris Lexx. After the match, Action Jackson says "The King of Pow" Chris Lexx can go all day, then gets the crowd pumped one more time.



Jerry Jarrett is in the ring with the Memphis Heritage Championship as "The Memphis Mauler" Alan Steel and Johnny Dotson make their way there. Jarrett speaks with Steel and Dotson, then awards the Memphis Heritage Championship to Steel and raises Steel's hand. Suddenly, Steel jerks his hand away and Steel puts on his black gloves after Dotson hands them to him. Suddenly, "The GunShow" Brett Michaels gets in the ring but gets outnumbered, and Action Jackson runs into the ring to make the save for Michaels. Michaels and Jackson then clean house. Jerry Jarrett, who has left the ring at the beginning of the brawl, gets in the ring with Michaels and Jackson and thanks them before raising their hands.
