Match # 17: Ricky Morton & Eddie Gilbert vs. Masa Fuchi & Atsushi Onita (Tupelo Concession Stand Brawl) (9/4/81) This is fascinating for a few reasons.

Match # 148: Eddie Gilbert & Dick Murdoch vs. Terry Gordy & Buddy Roberts (6/25/87) Looks like the Freebirds get to be babyfaces for once. That’s a welcome change for me. Murdoch and Gilbert tries to take out Bam Bam’s leg. First Doc, now this? Crazy Gilbert! What were those two thinking? We shall see in [...]

Match # 146: Eddie Gilbert vs. Dr. Death (5/17/87) Doc sprints to the ring for this TV main event. Eddie Gilbert is going to have Dick Murdoch in his corner. He tells me so in a promo he cuts with Captain Redneck. Murdoch says he showed the brainbuster finish and Gilbert acts like a goof. Priceless. [...]

Match # 142: Chris Adams & Terry Taylor vs. Eddie Gilbert & Iceman Parsons (3/20/87) The story is Adams and Parsons were once tag team partners in a tournament in Mid South (apparently because of the World Class connections). They broke up and Parsons went heel, joining Eddie Gilbert’s Hot Stuff International. Hence this match.

Match # 129: The Fantastics vs. Sting & Eddie Gilbert (9/7/86) This is for the held up UWF tag team belts. Gilbert has his whole faction out there.

Match # 124: The Fantastics & Missing Link vs. Eddie Gilbert, John Tatum & Sting (8/3/86) Dark Journey is a face now and Missy Hyatt makes an appearance with the heels. She’s slept with everyone but Sting on the heels side… maybe Sting too. Neat.

Match # 109: Koko B. Ware vs. Eddie Gilbert (2/28/86) The first of four from the same Houston card. Four matches making it to a 150 match best of the decade review? Must have been a hell of a card. Then again, I’m sure a lot of great cards have happened over the years where no [...]

Match # 94: Eddie Gilbert & The Nightmare vs. The Bruise Brothers (12/31/85) The Bruise Brothers are Pork Chop Cash and some other hack Memphis act doing a black Blues Brothers gimmick. They are the faces. Eddie Gilbert is another known Memphis act (like the faces) who Chris Candido patterned a lot of his stuff after. [...]
