We celebrate Episode #100 of Regional Rasslin' by closing out the month of MAY 1985 in the Memphis Territory! Guest Gene Jackson returns to talk Memorial Day weekend in the CWA! Bruiser Brody now wears the crown, but is Jerry Lawler still the King? Austin Idol returns darlin' to team with Lawler vs. Brody & Kareem Muhammad. Speaking of Muhammad, after his "audition" last week on the Lawler Show, Kareem is given nearly the entirety of this week's 90 minute wrestling program to get himself over... and what a job he does! Plus, Billy Travis no longer a PYT? Jerry Jarrett & Tojo meet the PYT. Plus, Jay Youngblood debuts, Phil Hickerson returns, Jerry Oski vs. Macho Man in a Coal Miner's Glove Match, Jackie Fargo sends in a promo, the Fabs lose the Tag Titles without actually LOSING the Tag Titles, and more!

Regional Rasslin' - Territory Talk
Before the national expansion of Pro Wrestling the business was split into many different regional promotions referred to as "the territories". Each territory competed within their own regional boundaries with unqiue wrestling stars, championship belts, and local TV. We talk the good old days from the territory era, from the AWA to JCP, New York to Los Angeles, Memphis to Mid-South, Portland to Florida, Stampede to Maple Leaf, Houston to Dallas, well... you get the point!
