Pete Pranica guests on commentary for this week.

Derrick King and Ray Ray Sanders beat The L.A. Hustlers (Notorious Bradley and Ruffshot Lamont) in a tag team lumberjack match despite all the lumberjacks fighting each other on the outside.

Dustin Starr interviews Big John Dalton at the announce desk. Big John says that he recently made an important phone call to someone he loves dearly, but before he can bring that person out, Sir Matthew and Lord Gaston show up. Matthew says nobody cares who Big John was on the phone with, and asks him when he will figure out that he does not belong her and that Memphis Wrestling is their game. Big John then brings out who he was going to introduce: Buff Bagwell, who shows up and says Matthew and Gaston act tough when it is two-on-one, then proposes a tag team match. Matt and Gaston then point out the boot that Buff is wearing on his left foot. Buff also states that the tag team titles will be on the line for the match next week, assuming Matthew and Gaston want to take on someone more their size. Gaston accepts, proclaiming that Buff and Big John do not stand a chance.

"All The Way" Ray Collins beats Mike Anthony in seconds with the Sliced Bread in the corner as Mike Anthony mouths off at the fans. After the match, Mike Anthony says he could not do it again and runs at him. He blocks the Sliced Bread, but Ray Collins beats him again with an inside cradle. After this happens, Mike Anthony powerbombs Ray Collins off the top rope and demands another rematch, which gets granted. Mike Anthony has the upper hand at first and mockingly goes for the Sliced Bread, but Ray Collins counters with an Uranage, then hits the Sliced Bread three more times for a third victory.

Dustin Starr interviews Assistant Matchmaker Michael at the announce desk. Michael addresses Van Viciouss, and The Hollywood Clique ("Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock, Van Viciouss, Secret Service) arrives. "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock stares down Michael and tells him to keep Van Viciouss' name out of his mouth and says he has never been a coward as he pokes him in the chest. Michael calls Van Viciouss "a white liver, no-good, yellow bellied coward," and Van Vicouss dares him to say it again. As the fans call Van Viciouss a coward, Michaels says everyone knows Viciouss is a coward. Viciouss hits him with a cheap shot before he and the secret service agents throw him in the ring and gang up on him. Referees show up as Jimmy Blaylock spray paints a yellow line on the back of Michael's suit jacket, and at this point, security shows up to get The Hollywood Clique to the back.

Sycho Simon beats Brad Martin by forfeit when Brad Martin fails to show. A disgruntled Simon responds by throwing a fan towards the ring and choking him with a chain as referees get him to stop.

Big John Dalton vs. Buff Bagwell vs. Sir Matthew and Lord Gaston for the Memphis Wrestling Tag Team Championships is official for next week.

The man with the brown robe and the walking stick is seen putting an axe and a baseball in a garbage can on his way to Memphis. He makes it to East Kiehl Avenue in Sherwood, Arkansas, which is where show sponsor KAPOW! Comics is located.

Memphis Thing - Memphis Wrestling recap for April 6, 2024

In memory of James Thurber, aka "Gentleman" Jim Casey, 1952 - 2024.

Barnabas the Leader shows up to start today's show and announce that The Circuz (Barnabas the Leader and Maurice the Strong). He introduces Maurice the Strong, then announces that time is rapidly running out for the biggest, the hungriest, the baddest, and the one who stole months from Maurice's career and shutting down their big top. He says that this person stole everything from them, and today, they take everything from them, for Maurice the Strong evokes his championship match clause, and in today's main event, it will be for the Memphis Wrestling Heritage Championship as Maurice ends K-Toomer forever. Barnabas then says he will take K-Toomer's heart, soul and title.

"Mr. All Day" Will Allday retains the Reality of Wrestling Heavyweight Championship against Mike Anthony. David Knight is the referee for this championship match.

Backstage, we hear from The Hollywood Clique ("Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock, Van Viciouss, Secret Service). Blaylock and Van Viciouss blame Matchmaker King Cobra for keeping Viciouss off the Cobra Cup Tournament, putting Blaylock's contract on the line and inviting "The Cowboy" James Storm to crash their victory party, and Blaylock says he will file a formal complaint against King Cobra as he demands a face-to-face meeting. He also calls Assistant Matchmaker Michael "a lunatic."

The Righteous Path (Brother Bruce and "Righteous" Ryan Rembrandt) beat The Top Gunz (Brandon Beretta and Joey Vinetti). (The masked man is now known as "Marrow.") After the match, Dustin Starr interviews Reverend Ash Taylor at the announce desk. Ash Taylor says he gave "The GunShow" Brett Michaels a chance to join them only for him to tear up the pamphlet. He says that Brett Michaels is in for a world of hurt, as they are stronger and more righteous than him.

We hear from K-Toomer. He says he finds it funny that The Circuz (Barnabas the Leader and Maurice the Strong) talk about time as if it can be manipulated to their will and make videos about how there will be repercussions for his actions. He says he actions were really retaliation for The Circuz trying to make a name at his expense, then tells The Circuz that he accepts their challenge and that The Circuz will be shut down for good.

We hear from Matchmaker King Cobra and Assistant Matchmaker Michael. King Cobra tells Michael not to worry about "Hollywood" Jimmy Blaylock, as he lies every time that he moves his mouth, and to do what he has to do. Michael thanks King Cobra for the advice, but says he does not know if he can let this go. King Cobra says they are doing the right thing and that Blaylock always complains, and Michael entertains the idea of wrapping him up in the bureaucracy and red tape that they have to deal with to see how it feels. The two of them agree that they have time to meet Blaylock face to face.

Diana Taylor beats Raven Black.

We see footage of Tim Bosby and "All The Way" Ray Collins training in the WrestleCenter ring.

Their presence also distracts Ruffshot Lamont, and Steven O'Neal pins Notorious Bradley with a schoolkid pin for the win. After the match, The L.A. Hustlers get in an argument with Derrick and Ray Ray, and referees and officials have to step in before things get physical.

We see a vignette for The Twins of Salem (Jacksyn Crowley and Abel Booker), where the two of them are sucked into a striped box after a had with a ticket lures them in. The box closes, then catches aflame. As this goes on, there is a doll dressed like a clown on top of the box.

Barnabas the Leader introduces Maurice the Strong during the championship announcements.

K-Toomer retains the Memphis Wrestling Heritage Championship against Maurice the Strong by disqualification. David Knight is the referee for this championship match.

The slim figure is Jacksyn Crowley in clown make-up, and Abel Booker, also in clown makeup, soon joins him. The Twins of Salem gang up on K-Toomer so that Maurice the Strong can hit K-Toomer in the back of the head with his hammer. The Circuz, now four strong, celebrate in the ring.

Michael confirms that he has gotten a new job as King Cobra's assistant, then reads an update from the desk of King Cobra which announces that The Posse has been suspended indefinitely without pay following the attack on King Cobra.

Hustlers (Notorius Bradley and Ruffshot Lamont), whom he considers ungrateful. The L.A. Hustlers show up and confront Barnabas and Maurice, and Lamont tells Barnabas not to run his mouth and that he has a big man in Bradley.

This leads to a match after Notorious Bradley and Maurice the Strong have an intense staredown.

Right now, he has to beat up The Circuz (Barnabus the Leader and Marcus the Strong), whom he calls "Vin Diesel in a leotard" and "Willy Wonka, or whatever he wants to call himself," and that this will be an execution, not a match. He also warns "The GunShow" Brett Michaels that the fans will chant for him and that he has something he wants, and that he wants the gold. As K-Toomer tells Brett that he is coming for him, Brett shows up. Brett says he would not expect anything less and tells him not to worry as he still has his opportunity coming and that they will do it and do it right, and until that opportunity comes, he will watch his back from here on it.

Backstage, Ellsworth Enterprises (Matt Williams and Storybook Prince Gaston) talk with James Ellsworth over the phone, saying that everything is fine and that they are waiting for confirmation that everything will go as planned.
