Memphis Thing - Memphis Wrestling recap for February 10, 2024

Dustin Starr interviews Assistant Matchmaker Michael, who shows up with the Cobra Cup and welcomes back Matchmaker King Cobra. Michael not only announces that he is bringing back the Cobra Cup, but that the tournament for the cup is starting today. King Cobra says the attack from Simon could have been worse, but he is here today and he is here to stay, for he is back. He then says it is not over between him and Simon and that he has something planned for him.

Backstage, The Nyxx Network (Queen Nyxx, Sir Matt, Lord Gaston) discuss the main event when all of their phones go off, first Sir Matt's, then Lord Gaston's, then Nyxx's. As it turns out, the person calling is James Ellsworth, who is forced to leave messages to everyone.

Mike Anthony beats Zay Washington by submission to advance in the Cobra Cup Tournament.

We hear from "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock and Van Viciouss. Blaylock is disappointed that they are not in the Cobra Cup Tournament, but Van Viciouss says he has a plan and that Memphis Wrestling needs to find out they mean business.

Backstage, we hear from The Last Savages (Gio Savage and Draco). They both agree that they are sick of the same old thing and that they will do whatever it takes to make it to the top, regardless of who Memphis Wrestling brings in. Gio Savage says they have proven they are the best, past and present, and that Too Kool II's time has passed and that they are about to hurt.

Steele Cross (Ethan Steele and Alex Cross) beat The L.A. Hustlers (Notorious Bradley and Ruffshot Lamont) and The Twins of Salem (Jacksyn Crowley and Abel Booker) in a three-way tag team match.

During the commercial break, James Ellsworth arrives at the WrestleCenter. Dustin Starr soon interviews James Ellsworth at the announce desk. Ellsworth says he was supposed to be picked up at the airport and had to call an Uber driver. He wants to know what is going on with The Nyxx Network (Queen Nyxx, Sir Matt, Lord Gaston), saying they are champions due to his tutelage. Ellsworth wants to know what is going on, and Nyxx says "the Ellsworth thing" was not working and that when she showed up, they started gaining championship gold. Ellsworth insists that they stick together, but Nyxx says that Sir Matt and Lord Gaston will always be her guys. Ellsworth asks if Matt and Gaston are being whipped by Nyxx and says that Nyxx is okay but is "nothing like Carmella or anything." Nyxx kicks Ellsworth in the groin, and as The Nyxx Network is going for a three-person powerbomb, Ray Ray Sanders and Diana Taylor show up to stand up for Ellsworth, and referees have to restore order.

Backstage, Reverend Ash Taylor praises Brother Bruce for reclaiming the collection plate, then says it is time for "Righteous" Ryan Rembrandt to do something just as righteous and bring back the Cobra Cup so that the Heritage Championship can be theirs. He says that he and Bruce will join him at ringside to ensure victory.

Backstage, Mike Anthony says that he is one step ahead of K-Toomer like he has always been and that the Cobra Cup will be no different.

K-Toomer beats "Righteous" Ryan Rembrandt by knockout to advance in the Cobra Cup Tournament. After the match, Mike Anthony shows up and sarcastically congratulates K-Toomer for advancing.

Barnabas the Leader has two men try to get in the ring with Maurice the Strong and toss him out of the ring, but it is Maurice the Strong who does it to them. Barnabas says the SuperBrawl Battle Royal has been rechristened the "Big Top Battle Royal" and dares anyone to enter.

The Nyxx Network (Queen Nyxx, Sir Matt, Lord Gaston) beat Ray Ray Sanders, Diana Taylor and James Ellsworth in a six-person tag match. Near the end of the match, James Ellsworth hits Sir Matt with the No Chin Music, but referee David Knight is pre-occupied with everyone else brawling on the outside. As Ellsworth tries to get the referee's attention, Sir Matt hits him with a low blow and wins on a schoolkid pin.
