Bob SmithHOST
Well, the passage of time, you know, what can you do? This afternoon, I got out the record books and I looked at Bill's career.

John McCallGUEST
Oh, he was a, he was a nine time Southern AWA heavyweight champion, uh, two time AWA Southern tag team champion, along with Jerry Lawler.
Eric CornishGUEST
Yeah, but to me, honestly, like I got to see most of his baby face work, which, you know, people didn't really see and that have only seen him in WWF because he was, you know, he was so good and everybody loved him.
Eric CornishGUEST
And it was I mean, we literally we didn't call it Memphis Wrestling and call it USWA.
Eric CornishGUEST
If we were going to watch like my dad's like, you want to watch Lawler's Wrestling? That's what we called it.
Eric CornishGUEST
You know, so he was so larger than life, you know.

All
Travis LassiterHOST
Like, he always beat everybody.
Travis LassiterHOST
He's, like, won a 28-time, you know, Mid-South or USWA champion.
Travis LassiterHOST
So, I get it.
Travis LassiterHOST
He's the local legend.
Steven ConwayHOST
Yeah, I mean, they are absolute locks as the people who made Memphis wrestling popular.
Steven ConwayHOST
And really, it was... through a few iterations, CWA, USWA, it had a few names, it had a few ownership kerfuffles over the years and controversies, but that was one of the very last territories.
Steven ConwayHOST
Well into the 1990s, that place survived going to Memphis on Monday, Louisville on Tuesday, Evansville on Wednesday, and just these places that were... decades after you know decades they would just keep coming back and uh dundee was one of the homesteaders and he would leave he would leave he would go other places but he would come back and he would whenever he came back he was a big star
Jeremy FinestoneHOST
so you know not to not to hard pivot to another topic but i will i will interrupt with this uh we are now a YouTube-only network, and we have paused the Fight Game Media feed for audio for this channel.
Rick Serrano IIIHOST
Elio, you want to explain a little bit what Bill Dundee meant to the business?
Elio CanellaHOST
Bill's been the legend in the USWA down in the Memphis Territory area.
Elio CanellaHOST
So he had a long career down there with Jerry Lawler, Jeff Jarrett, Jerry Jarrett.
Rick Serrano IIIHOST
And, like, yeah, exactly.
Corey MacklinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Bye.
Gene JacksonHOST
Hey everybody, welcome back once again to the Retro Wrestling Review USWA podcast.
Gene JacksonHOST
I'm Gene Jackson.
Gene JacksonHOST
The man to my right, immediate right, is Josh Briley.
Gene JacksonHOST
And so, man...
Gene JacksonHOST
I feel like we have to mention it, but by the time this airs on the main feed by Wednesday, I'm sure that here on the channel, we will probably have done a live stream of some sort, like a tribute we were planning to anyway.
Gene JacksonHOST
But I did want to mention it here, not to kind of bring things down, but man, you can't have a USWA podcast and not mention something this significant.
Gene JacksonHOST
I just wanted to kind of get you guys' thoughts on it before we get going.
Elio CannellaHOST
And they were really playing up, Jerry Lawler being Brian Christopher's father, and he kept insisting, that's not my son, but he was so behind Brian Christopher.
Ben PearceHOST
Yeah, it was actually quite funny, and it was even funnier given the fact that we did that entire 10-part piece on the USWA, and there was a lot of Brian Christopher involvement with that, too, so that was kind of...
Elio CannellaHOST
I'm going to take a small detour because speaking of that, that 10-part episode, that was fun, but that was exhausting, especially the final part where we spent I don't know how many hours trying to get through, getting through it so we didn't have to do a part 11 and part 12, etc.
Elio CannellaHOST
Yeah.
