Memphis Thing - Memphis Wrestling recap for August 3, 2024

Dustin Starr interviews "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock at the announce desk. Blaylock introduces Mike Anthony as the newest member of The Hollywood Clique (Blaylock, Van Viciouss, Secret Service). Blaylock says he is the most caring manager in Memphis and that he cares for people, then gives Blaylock a necklace he bought in Beverly Hills. Dustin Starr reads the package and says it came from Temu. Blaylock also puts 24-karat gold glasses on Mike Anthony's face, then says Mike Anthony looks better already and is ready for "The Cowboy" James Storm, who has embarrassed him not once, but twice, and will pay for what he has done to him.

We see footage from after last week's show where Coach Pillar is helped out of the WrestleCenter.

Big John Dalton beats "Main Event" Brad Skimahorn after being able to hit the Bam Bam Slam despite missing big on a top rope splash.

Dustin Starr interviews Assistant Matchmaker Michael at the announce desk. Michael says he started something at SuperBout that he did not finish, and now Sycho Simon is ruining the shows and he is sick of it. He then calls Sycho Simon out for a fight, and Sycho Simon shows up. Michael says he is tired of this and he has had enough. Simon hits a cheap shot to the throat as he tells Michael to lower his voice, then knocks him out and slams him on the ring steps. Simon then pulls out a table from underneath the ring, and Michael starts to fight back and even grabs some chairs from the side of the arena as he puts the table near the wall. Simon gets the better of Michael and smashes Michael through the table. Simon then makes Dustin Starr look at the destruction, and says that he is going to Mississippi next week while Tommy Dreamer leaves in a body bag. Michael is helped through the back.

The Twins of Salem (Jacksyn Crowley and Abel Booker) beat The O'Neal Brothers (Steven and Devin O'Neal).

We hear from Lord Crewe, who says that he is here to find the biggest, baddest, meanest guy Memphis Wrestling can throw at him. He says he has been scouting the talent and has seen people who are good, but not quite who he is looking for. He says that the target will be acquired next week and that he will find out how tough his opponent is.

Matchmaker King Cobra gets a phone call and finds out what has happened to Assistant Matchmaker Michael, and heads off to meet Michael right now.

Before the next match, "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock calls out "The Cowboy" James Storm, who shows up. Blaylock says he has made sure the WrestleCenter is alcohol-free so that Storm cannot spit beer in his face, then blames James Storm for his diabetes and health issues when he shoved his face in a cake not once, but twice. James Storm says this is just business and tells Jimmy Blaylock to be a man, as a real man gets knocked down and gets back up. He also says that he will not be drinking beer because he will beating him up all over the WrestleCenter before grabbing Blaylock. Mike Anthony then starts fighting James Storm, and the match begins.

"The Cowboy" James Storm beats Mike Anthony after Jay Smooth shows up to grab Storm from behind and Mike Anthony wants Jay Smooth out of the ring while "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock distracts the referee. After the match, Jimmy Blaylock chews out Jay Smooth, then James Storm tells Mike Anthony to stand on his own feet and be a man, for America is built off men who get back up, as Mike Anthony is way too good to be with The Hollywood Clique ("Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock, Van Viciouss, Secret Service). He tells Mike Anthony to go home, look in the mirror, and remember the fans chanting for him.

Bosby says that at Championship Saturday, "The Problem Child" Aaron Roberts cheated him even after he made him tap out in the middle of the ring, then says he knows Roberts is here today and that he wants one more match. He also says that Roberts is nothing more than an egg-sucking dog, to which the fans agree, and demands Roberts accept the challenge, even asking for Matchmaker King Cobra and Assistant Matchmaker Michael to make the match official. Matchmaker King Cobra shows up and says he has some good news and bad news. The good news is that he has a contract for the championship match today, but the bad news is that in order to get the signature, Bosby has to put his Memphis Wrestling contract. If Bosby wins, he is the champion again, but if he loses, he is gone from Memphis Wrestling. Bosby says that if this is what it takes, then he is on, as Roberts started this and he will end this and become a three-time champion.

While Brother Bruce thanks Ash Taylor, Marrow simply laughs. Afterwards, Ash Taylor raises the shinai into the air.

Dustin Starr interviews Mackenzie Morgan at the announce desk. Mackenzie says that he loves the fans and that they are her world, and while she is in a world of war, she chooses peace, and she is a fighter for the fans. She says that she is the sound of his mother's scream and the message of his father's whisper as she conquers anything in her way. As for what is next, what happens happens, and she wants to be the fans' favorite. All of a sudden, an unknown female wrestler shows up, and she introduces herself to Mackenzie by punching her in the face. After another punch to the face, she gets Mackenzie in the ring and hits her with a Michinoku Driver before caressing her face. She then hits Mackenzie with a leg drop as security is at the ring. The mystery woman then makes it clear that she wants the Memphis Wrestling Women's Championship.

Tim Bosby beats "The Problem Child" Aaron Roberts to become Memphis Wrestling Internet Champion for a third time despite a pre-bell attack with the championship belt by Roberts and constant referee distraction by Justin Case after Bosby ducks a championship belt shot by Roberts, which hits Justin Case and knocks him off the ring apron. This allows Bosby to lock in the ankle lock and grapevine it, and without Justin Case on the ring apron to distract the referee again, Aaron Roberts has no choice but to tap out.

He blames Matchmaker King Cobra for Van Viciouss not being in the King Cobra Cup and "The Cowboy" James Storm putting his face in a cake, which he says gaves him diabetes. He says that he wants to file a formal complaint and that he wants King Cobra and Assistant Matchmaker Michael out here right now. Blaylock accuses King Cobra of screwing over The Hollywood Clique over and over again and protecting "The GunShow" Brett Michaels. Cobra says all he does is sign the contracts and that whatever is in the ring is not his business, and Blaylock threatens to go over his head as he has pull in the company, and he also puts his hands on King Cobra as he does this. Cobra says he can go over his head, but he cannot go through him, as this will be the last time Blaylock puts his hands on him.

Before the next match, Mike Anthony says that even though he was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, he moved to Ripley, Mississippi in 2000. He also says that the United States should have "built the wall in Tippah County to keep Union County out of it" instead of building the wall on the United States-Mexico border. He also calls Andrew Wilbanks, calling him "the best baseball pitcher to come out of Ripley, Mississippi" only to say that he works for a "sorry sports program."
