This is a really confusing angle. I don't remember Funk ever working face in Memphis back then, and especially not teaming up with Lawler.
Also,I had a big crush on Miss Linda back then. Today she's in pretty decent shape, but Adrian Street is beyond belief. He's in better shape at 70 than he was here.
awesome loved memphis wrestling! great funny promo and some of the best brawls ever! and pretty much every wrestler wrestled there at one time or another!!
@Mp25DIII Nah, for once I can't pin a rip off on Vince. Adrian Street was feminine, but was always put over as being tough as nails thus fans could believe him.
Vince did the feminine thing with Adrian Adonis as punishment for getting out of shape and always had the announcers run him down for it.
jeez...so young

I imagine it's a work, Cornette speaks very highly of Funk in the shoot interviews he does now

Another great promo...
What do you get when you cross someone from Tupelo with a pig...nothing, because there are some things even a pig won't do!
Hilarious!
The second promo seems to have influenced Mick Foley, another demonstration of the versatility of Jim Cornette.
Cornette is as good as damn near anyone cutting a promo.

Exotic Adrian Street--Vince blatantly (and poorly) copied his gimmick with Adrian Adonis about 3 years after this
