Memphis in Minutes Episode #9: USWA "Dr. Lawler" Episode - 2/3/90


Listen Later

This week, we’re heading to February 3, 1990, for one of the most infamous and absurd episodes of USWA Championship Wrestling—the day “Dr. Lawler, M.D.” decided to give Jeff Jarrett and Kerry Von Erich live steroid tests on television! From bogus lab results to beeping machines from Osceola, Arkansas, it’s pure Memphis chaos.

This Week’s Madness Includes:
• Jerry Lawler’s unlicensed medical debut and “steroid head” PSA
• Chris Champion vs. Dirty White Boy feud leading to the Snake Box Match
• The Southern Rockers’ roller-coaster TV title run — win, defend, and lose all in one hour
• Jeff Jarrett & Kerry Von Erich’s fiery babyface promos vs. Lawler & Billy Joe Travis
• King Cobra’s revenge vow against Lawler and the Soul Taker (a young Godfather!)

From Dr. Lawler’s steroid crusade to snake boxes and loaded boots, this episode has everything that made Memphis Wrestling wonderfully insane in 1990.
