1992

No event was scheduled on Monday 28 September due to the Mid-South Fair occupying the Mid-South Coliseum

During the year the promotion advertised a 'USWA Wrestling Academy' in its programs

An 'interpromotional' angle purported to involve Global Wrestling Federation wrestlers - led by Eddie Gilbert - invading the USWA ended in July, when the real GWF threatened legal action.  The USWA did sign an interpromotional agreement with the World Wrestling Federation that led to their workers starting to appear in Memphis from September. Jerry Lawler began working in the WWF in December.

CWA Southwestern Heavyweight Championship

Created after the merger of the Memphis promotion with World Class Championship Wrestling. After the initial title reigns it was defended in the Dallas end of the territory, before being abandoned when the Von Erich family split from Jerry Jarrett.

The USWA promoted its own Texas Heavyweight Championship from 1991.
1978

In May, Nick Gulas filed suit against Jerry Jarrett, Roy Welch, Jerry Lawler, Las Vegas Louie and Don Fargo. He claimed $1.5 million in damages, alledging that Lawler paid Louie, Garfield and Fargo $200 not to appear on his cards. Gulas claimed the three had signed contracts to work exclusively for him.

Gulas had been driven out of Memphis in 1977, but launched a counter-attack by running cards in Jarrett's Louisville territory between May and October. In retaliation, Jarrett launched an attack on Gulas' Chattanooga operation in July. The Gulas group's attack failed, poor ticket sales forced them to pull out of Louisville again.

During July the tag team titles of a fictional 'Atlantic Wrestling Association' were defended in the promotion. This was promoted as 'AWA' in newspaper advertisements to imply they were the titles of the more famous American Wrestling Association.

On Saturday 18 June, Prentice tried to bribe Kid to pull out of the match by giving him a watch but Kid took the watch and refused to give it back. Kid won the match and Prentice wore the dress.

1980

The promotion's plans were altered when Jerry Lawler suffered a broken leg in a football game.

In August, Jerry Jarrett's win in the Tennessee wrestling wars was confirmed when Nick Gulas retired from promotion, selling the remainder of the company to Jarrett and Roy Welch for $106,703 . Jarrett and Welch sued Gulas in October, claiming that he intentionally sabotaged his business to diminish the value of the 37.5% of it that they still owned.
