Smoky Mountain Wrestling (August 9, 1992) Report.
  
Bob Caudle and "Dirty" Dutch Mantell announcing from Polk County High
School, Benton, Tennessee.

* Paul Lee (220 lb., Chattanooga, TN)
      VS.
  Hector Guerrero (216 lb., Guadalajara, Mexico)

  Lee started out trying to "Style and Profile" (no Flair Flop (tm) or
  apron walk after turnbuckle flip in this match).  Even match until
  Guerrero gets neckbreaker and applies Jalepen~o Roll (small cradle and
  rolling around ring twice) to then pin Lee.  Time: 2:40.

* Interviews with participating teams in $5000 Tag Team elimination
  match:  "Nitro" Danny Davis & Dixie Dy-no-mite, Jimmy Golden & Robert
  Fuller, The Fantastics ("We'd beat up the Heavenly Bodies for free."),
  and The Heavenly Bodies.

* Review of Dixie Dy-no-mite and Killer Kyle situation.

   - Clip from Dy-no-mite win of match to see what is contained in
     Kyle's violin case that has been ever present at all his matches.
     Kyles uses the roll of tape in the case (the only contents) to secure 
     DD into the corner, tapes up his fist and beats on the helpless DD.

   - Review of last week's attack by Killer Kyle on Dixie Dy-no-mite
     with the coat hanger.  The Hector Guerrero chairing of Kyle has no
     effect.
   
  Interview with Killer Kyle.  Bob Caudle asks about the feud three times
  and Kyle is silent.  Caudle gets very emphatic with the question and
  Kyle produces a Confederate flag which he rips in half as his only
  response.

* Review of Paul Orndorff feud with Ronny Garvin.

   - Clip of Orndorff match, joined in progress, in which he utterly
     destroys a jobber in and out of the ring.  Finishes with a backflip
     sending the jobber high into the air. Time: 2:30.

  Interview of Orndorff from locker room.  Orndorff states Garvin may
  be loved by the "hillbillies" and "rednecks" but he's never faced
  anyone like Mr. Wonderful: the man who piledrove Hulk Hogan and who
  piledrove Andre the Giant.  (Orndorff paused, as if trying to remember
  the name of Hulk Hogan, before spitting it out.)

* "Down and Dirty with Dutch Mantell" (interview segment a la "Piper's Pit")
  Guest: Smoky Mountain Wrestling Commissioner Bob Armstrong.  Dutch
  (because of all the fan's letters he's received and not due to his own
  personal opinions, since he agrees with everything Armstrong has done
  in SMW, we are told many, many times) grilled Armstrong on his policies
  for:

   - Paul Orndorff using the piledriver.  BA: Piledriver can be a
     crippling maneuver and he won't allow it.

   - Fantastics feud with The Heavenly Bodies by giving the Fantastics
     "complete leeway" in their matches with Cornette's team. BA: Everyone
     was fined $1500 for the hallway altercation which had gone too far.

   - Brian Lee vs. Paul Orndorff in "Volunteer Slam" Heavyweight
     Championship tournament finals where Armstrong stepped in as referee
     yet is the Commissioner.  BA: The referee was down, he was the closest
     man to the ring and was making sure the fans would have a champion
     crowned that night.

  Armstrong closed by saying, "I want to tell you what Smoky Mountain
  stands for.  We don't have any impersonators, like Little Richard
  impersonators.  We don't have wrestlers that go out in bad taste.  We
  like role models here, we like athletes here.  We don't charge high
  prices.  We charge regular prices so families can attend.  We don't
  charge ten, twenty, thirty dollars for a Pay-Per-View.  Why am I going
  to sit in my house and pay $30 to turn on the TV when I can go down to
  my local arena and see my favorite star in person and get his
  autograph?"  Also said SMW would be playing the smaller auditoriums
  where the big boys wouldn't bring their cards.

* $5000 Four Team Elimination match with:
   "Nitro" Danny Davis & Dixie Dy-no-mite (434 lbs.)
   The Stud Stable: Jimmy Golden and Robert Fuller (505 lbs.)
   The Heavenly Bodies: Stan Lane & Tom Pritchard 
       (Cornette does intro, no weight)
   The Fantastics: Bobby & Jackie Fulton (460 lbs.)

   Rules Review:
   - in-ring participants may tag out to anyone (not just team member)
   - failure to accept tag results in DQ
   - after tag, wrestlers must attempt to wrestle
   - pin, submission, DQ of team member results in team elimination
   - last team remaining is winner

  Stan Lane put on some headgear to cover his ears as the fan's noise
  seemed to bother him.  Dutch began to explain why but never finished.

  Below is a highlighted description of the action.  I didn't include
  all the holds and moves, but tried to get the tags in and out.
  
  Davis and Golden start.  Davis tags in Pritchard.  Golden tags Bobby
  Fulton.  Fulton tags Jackie and the Fantastics double team Pritchard
  until he tags Davis.  Jackie Fulton and Davis go at it pretty fast
  with many scientific moves.  Davis tags Golden.  Fulton slams Golden
  who then seeks tag from one of the Heavenly Bodies.  Pritchard and
  Lane both withdraw their hands behind their backs.  Referee cautions
  Bodies with threat of DQ, but Golden backs out of the corner and tags
  Fuller.  Fuller dominates Jackie Fulton with a test of strength.
  Fulton turns Fuller's kick into an inverted atomic drop and then
  catches Fuller with a clothesline.  Fuller tries for tag with the
  Heavenly Bodies.  Again, referee threatens a DQ, until Lane gets in the
  ring. Crowd screams annoy Lane.  Lane ducks under Jackie and tags
  Bobby Fulton to go against his brother.  Fantastics go at it with
  gusto.  They start to criss-cross the ring off the ropes and then both
  tag one of the Heavenly Bodies!  Cornette is outraged but referee
  orders him down off the apron.  Referee starts counting the Heavenly
  Bodies out.  They enter and trade headlocks that are immediately let
  go while apologizing to each other.  Pritchard tags Davis, Lane tags
  Bobby Fulton.  Davis tags Fuller and Fulton slaps Pritchard to the gym
  floor for a tag.  Pritchard enters and starts in on Bobby Fulton.
  Lane and Jackie join in while Robert Fuller (the other legal man
  besides Pritchard) watches from his own corner.  Jackie throws Lane
  out and Pritchard holds Bobby while Cornette clobbers him with the
  tennis racket.  Fuller agrees to step out and give Pritchard chance to
  beat on Bobby.  Pritchard tags Golden.  (Mentioned that Dixie
  Dy-no-mite has not entered the contest, yet.)  Golden throws Fulton
  into the Heavenly Bodies' corner and tags in Pritchard.  Pritchard
  gets 2-count on Bobby Fulton after body slam.  Pritchard bulldogs
  Fulton and gets another 2-count.  Fulton tries to tag in someone from
  Davis's corner, but Pritchard holds him back.  Lane is tagged in and
  slams Fulton to the mat using the hair to pick him up with.  Lane puts
  Bobby into the Stud Stable corner and baits Jackie Fulton to distract
  referee while the remaining heels triple-team Bobby in the ring.  Lane
  returns, tags in Pritchard.  Pritchard misses an elbow leaving both
  men down.  Fulton can't tag while Pritchard gets to Lane.  After taking
  some more punishment, Fulton recovers enough to try sunset flip and
  pin on Lane, but the referee is distracted by Cornette and Pritchard
  breaks it up.  Pritchard comes in, Heavenly Bodies double team Bobby
  Fulton.  Pritchard gets the sleeper applied.  Fulton escapes by
  dropping down and catching Pritchard on the chin.  Fulton is able to
  make the tag to Jackie.  All four heels enter the ring, but Jackie is
  able to clean house.  While Jackie beats on Golden, Pritchard gets out
  International Object for his boot tip, stomps his toe twice and
  catches Fulton with a kick to the back of the head.  Pritchard gets
  the pin on Jackie Fulton.  Time: 11:40.
  
  Bobby Fulton beats Cornette outside ring and gets the tennis racket.
  Danny Davis takes on Pritchard in ring.  Davis whips Pritchard into
  ropes where Fulton catches him with the racket.  Davis gets the pin.
  Time: 0:09.
  
  Fantastics and Heavenly Bodies brawl back to the dressing room.  Davis
  faces Golden in ring.  <Commercial break>  After returning from the
  break, Davis has juiced big time.  His whole face is covered in
  blood.  Stud Stable dominate Davis.  Fuller gouges eyes while camera
  is doing a close-up of Davis' face.  (Dy-no-mite has still not been in
  the ring.)  Fuller and Golden keep dishing out the punishment.  Davis
  recovers a bit but goes to the wrong corner and is cut off by Fuller
  when he realizes there's no one there to tag.  Davis rallies once more
  and lunges for the tag to Dixie Dy-no-mite.  DD takes on both of the
  Stud Stable, throws out Fuller and gets the sleeper on Golden (DD has
  to jump up to get the hold applied high enough).  Fuller, outside the
  ring, clobbers Davis with a chair to send him out of the match in a
  bloody heap.  Fuller breaks up the sleeper.  Stud Stable start working
  away on DD with double teams and quick tags.  Dy-no-mite is able to
  get a Confederate kick on Golden.  Fuller comes in to break up the
  pin.  Stud Stable then start flagrant double teaming.  (Odd note: I
  thought I saw the referee count to 5 three or four times which would
  have DQed Fuller and Golden.  After this he seemed to just sit back
  and condone the double teaming because....)  Robert Gibson runs in
  with a cowboy boot and beats off the Stud Stable.  Referee comes out
  of his self-imposed daze, checks Dixie Dy-no-mite and then finally 
  calls for the bell.  DQ win by the Stud Stable.  Davis tries wanly to
  get off the floor while DD slumps in the corner.  Time: 8:48.
  
* Upcoming cards reviewed.  Tim Horner and Brian Lee interviews from
  last week repeated.

* Interview with Stud Stable.  Complain about Gibson attacking them
  with the boot.  But, they won the $5000.  They are the best tag team
  in SMW and are going to win much more money and even take the belts.
  Taunted Gibson and Ricky Morton.

* NEXT WEEK:

	- Highlights from "Fire on the Mountain" (August 8).
	- Return of the Rock and Roll Express.
