I don't have much to say other this is an out of control Falls Count Anywhere match. I have this as the Memphis Match of the Year 1984 and I just love Koko and the PYT Express. I wanted to make sure they were represented.
Southern Tag Team Champions Tommy Rich & Eddie Gilbert vs PYT Express - Memphis 5/18/84 Falls Count Anywhere
Now this is more like it! Super heated brawl! There is really not much to recap. For about 12 minutes, it is a balls to wall slugfest. With all due respect to Norvell and Rich, Gilbert and Koko (or should I say Stagger Lee as the announcer keeps calling him) owned this. Gilbert was a heat seeking missile for Pretty Young Things just tackling them at every turn. A Koko Ware vs. Eddie Gilbert from 1984 is a new dream match for me. Holy shit! They had insane chemistry. I loved Koko breaking a cane over Gilbert's back and then jabbing him in the throat. In fairness, Rich was a tremendous hot tag. Actually good arena brawling! Oh ECW why could you not be more like Mempho! They end up on a stage in the back of arena and Rich slugs the ref triggering a DQ. I actually booed in my chair in 2016. I was pissed! What a lame finish! It is falls count anywhere! Let there be a winner! Super fun, This is what I expected out of Memphis! ****1/2

2nd. Maybe the best Memphis match without Lawler.

Sleeze has this match covered. At the start this match features some great punches but Gilbert and Rich and some nastiness by Koko. It kicks into another gear after the hot tag and some of the tackles and slams on that stage looked awfully painful. I did hate the dq finish.
