Latin Lover and Psicosis defeated Memphis Legends (Brickhouse Brown and Reggie B. Fine) when L. Lover pinned Brickhouse Brown after a flying cross body press in 0:11:47. Rating: *** Latin Lover and Psicosis continue their quest to be the top tag team in the USWA. Tonight they took on two legends of the USWA, Brickhouse Brown and Reggie B Fine. Old time Memphis fans will know those names. Reggie B came out and told the fans that they are coming back to the territory to bring respect to the USWA. Tonight was not a good start for the legends. Lover and Psicosis will get a rematch for the Tag Titles on Velocity this week! Jerry Lawler pinned The Christmas Creature after a Thesz press in 0:13:40. Rating: 1/2* Local Promoter Bert Prentice came out to the announcers area to tell the fans that he heard Jerry Lawler is back as a fulltime wrestler, and with the holiday season quickly upon us, he had the perfect opponent for him! Out comes The mysterious Christmas Creature! Lalwer made his way out for the first time since his devistating loss at A Night to Remember. Lawler gets the victory tonight on his quest to get his singles career started from the bottom floor. Interview: Exclusive footage of CM Punk after his loss at AN2R 2002 Click here to see highlights. Mike Awesome pinned Universo 2000 with the Awesome Bomb in 0:05:00. Rating: *** 1/2 Mike Awesome gets his first USWA victory over Universo 2000 tonight on Challenge. Awesome started his USWA career out slow with losses to wrestlers like Ulf Hermann and Ahmed Johnson, but his devistating Awesome Bomb proves that he is going to be a wrestler to keep your eye on as we head into 2003. Interview: Low-Ki and Trinity discuss their actions at A Night to Remember Click here to see highlights. Jerry Lynn pinned Sean Waltman with the Cradle Piledriver in 0:07:11. Rating: ** 1/2 In our Main Event, Jerry Lynn steps into the ring with his long time rival Sean Waltman, and gets a victory with his Cradle Piledriver finisher. Lynn gets revenge on Waltman, and continues to chop down the competition in the X-Division. Interview: Taz hits the ring! Click here to see highlights. Interview: Jerry Lawler heads into Jeff Jarretts office. Click here to see highlights. Steve Corino made Steve Bradley submit to an abdominal stretch in 0:02:39. Rating: *** Steve Corino picks up a victory over Bradley in X-Division action. With Jerry Lynns victory over Waltman on Challenge, it looks as if the tide may be turning for the former tag team champions. Taped Interview: Raven has words for Jun Akiyama Click here to see highlights. Damien 666 and Halloween defeated Colt Cabana and Delirious when Damien 666 pinned Cabana with the Martinette in 0:12:00. Rating: **** 1/4 Making their return to the USWA, Damien 666 and Halloween get a victory over Cabana and Delirious and continue their focus on a match with Super Crazy and Universo 2000. Damien and Halloween looked great in the ring tonight showing no signs of ring rust since their last run in with the company in the 90's. Ulf Hermann pinned Konnan with the Slingshot in 0:14:09. Rating: **** Ulf Hermann gets a shot at former Global champion and comes away with a big victory. After the match Ulf continued to attack Konnan until he had to be stretchered out of the ring. Ulf Hermann has gone completely nuts since losing to Taz on two seperate occasions. He seems to want to destroy anyone thats in his way, accept the man he cant seem to beat, the Heavyweight Champion! PG-13 (J.C. Ice and Wolfie D) defeated Seasons Beatings (Xanta Klaus and The Christmas Creature) when J.C. Ice pinned Klaus after a short lariat in 0:07:00. Rating: * 1/2 Local Memphis wrestling promoter Bert Prentice has brought in two men known as Xanta Klaus and The Christmas Creature in an attempt to ruin the holidays of those wrestlers in the USWA. Lets just say that wasn't the case tonight as PG-13 made short work out of Berts latest tag team. Interview: Christopher Daniels talks about Low-Ki and a returning Trinity Click here to see highlights. The Sandman pinned Bobby Duncum Jr. with the White Russian Legsweep in 0:10:23. Rating: ** 3/4 After the attack on Harris and Duncum at A Night to Remember, Sandman was booked in a singles match against BDJ. Bobby is undefeated in singles action since his arrival in the USWA, until tonight. The Sandman gets the victory and becomes the first man in the USWA to beat Bobby Duncum Jr. AJ Styles pinned Alex Shelley with the Styles Clash in 0:08:21. Rating: *** 1/4 In another X-Division matchup AJ Styles gets the pin on New Europe member Alex Shelley! Shelley looked good in singles action, but AJ was just too much for him! Ultimo Guerrero and Nigel McGuinness and Latin Lover and Psicosis battled to a draw in 0:20:00. Rating: **** (Ultimo Guerrero and Nigel McGuinness retained the Tag Team Titles.) In our main event, Psicosis and Lover get a rematch for the tag titles, this time in a 2 on 2 match. They took the champions to the limits, but once again this one ends in a time limit draw! A solid main event, but once again we have yet to get a clear winner when these four men meet in the ring. Card rating: *** 1/4 Match observations: Backstage Notes: The night started off hot with Taz being jumped and challenged to a 5 on 5 war games match to finish off the 2002 season here in the USWA. Its almost a given we will see Ulf, Harry Smith, Alex Shelley, and Doug Williams but who will be the 5th member? Now more than ever Nigel needs to come back to his roots with his fellow New Europe members. On the other hand you have Taz who has no friends on this planet. Sean Morley will probably join the fight, and some are saying PG-13, but Taz and his 5 man team is really up in the air. Who is willing to bring the fight to New Europe? Latin Lover and Psicosis once again take the Tag Team champions to the limit. A wild main event with the question still being asked, who is the better team? Lover and Psicosis or our Tag Team Champions? The Sandmans victory over BDJ marks Bobbys first USWA loss in singles competition. It will be interesting to see how he bounces back. We have several big names that have expiring contracts after our next Velocity TV taping. Konnan, Vampiro, Chris Harris and Super Crazy will all be involved in negotiations. We will have more on that story as it develops.
