can anyone tell me where to find early to mid 80's mephis championship wrestling tapes with jerry lawler. i heard he was great back then and feuded with guys like savage,rude, hogan, kerry von erich, and ric flair.




I vaguely remember the Von Erich fued. I was pretty young (around six or so) when that happened. It was about the time right before Von Erich went to WWF. I do distinctly remember Lawler playing up Von Erich credentials big time. Saying that he was the World Heavyweight Champion and not just the champ of a single promotion in Texas. He really built up the upcoming match, which was always his strong suit (Lawler ain't exactly the best mat wrestler in the world). I do remember it being entertaining. But, like I said, I watched more than just that one match. I got to see the evolution of the angle as well as the pay off.

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.
