USWA Championship Wrestling #1: 1/5/1985
taped from Memphis, TN
USWA Unified World Heavyweight Champion Terry Funk joins Lance Russell and Bill Watts at the announce table. He talks abut the Funk name and how it has stood for excellence in professional wrestling for decades. He runs down Ted Dibiase as being nothing but a joke. Where are Ted Dibiase's world titles? That's right, he doesn't have any. Funk says that he's the king of the USWA and he's going to hold on to this belt for a really long time and if the fans don't like it then too bad.
Koko B. Ware pinned Gene Ligon at 3:41 with the Ghostbuster
Junkyard Dog is backstage with Bob Caudle. The JYD saw Robert Fuller using that loaded boot during the tag team title tournament and he didn't like it one bit. He tells Fuller and the Stud Stable that he's coming for them.
USWA Unified World Heavyweight Champion Terry Funk pinned Doug Vines at 1:03 with the Piledriver in a non-title match
After the match ends, Terry Funk gives Vines a second Piledriver. Funk goes to give him a third when Manny Fernandez hits the ring. They stare each other down for a few seconds before Terry Funk finally backs away.
Manny Fernandez walks over to the announce table. He calls Terry Funk nothing but a bully. If Funk wants someone to bully then why doesn't he pick a fight with the Raging Bull? Fernandez tells Funk anytime, anywhere. He would be more than happy to take that World Championship away from him.
Checkmate and Magic Dragon d. Jim and Mac Jeffers at 4:51 when Checkmate submits Jim after an arm bar
Gary Hart is with Bob Caudle backstage. He brings out the Great Kabuki, Checkmate and Magic Dragon. He wants the viewers at home to take a good long look at this group of men. He scouted wrestling promotions all over the world to assemble this group of elite international wrestlers. No championship in the USWA is going to be safe from them.
Junkyard Dog pinned Jeff Sword at 2:09 with the Big Thump
Robert Fuller and Jimmy Golden join the announce table for the main event. Fuller talks about how he plans to expand the Stud Stable in the coming weeks and months. He wants to rule the USWA and control everything. He's got a lot of feelers out and he's scouting guys he thinks will be interested in joining up. He announces that the Stud Stable is going to extend an open invitation to Terry Funk. Anytime he wants to join up, there will be a spot for him.
Main Event:
Brian Lee pinned Jeff Jarrett at 12:41 with a big boot after Fuller hit Jarrett with the loaded boot
Fuller, Lee and Golden start putting the boots to Jarrett after the match. Fuller starts hitting him with the loaded boot. The Junkyard Dog hits the ring and the Stud Stable clear out. JYD and Fuller yell at each other as the show fades to black.
