Jerry Lawler vs Toru Tanaka - Beatdown on Lawler Fails (5-19-79) Classic Wrestling Heels Cheating

CWA Championship Wrestling presents a classic studio match featuring Jerry Lawler going against Toru Tanaka with Gorgeous George Jr at ringside. Upon entering the ring, Toru Tanaka immediately attempts to set up a sneak attack before the bell. Later, he’ll use salt to blind his opponent. And if that weren’t enough, Mongolian Stomper will run in during the match and all three heels will attack Lawler and attempt to injure his back. Robert Fuller and Bill Dundee arrive in time to make the save. Date: May 19, 1979 Location: WMC TV5 Studio, Memphis Play-by-play: Lance Russell Referee: Jerry Calhoun
