1983 was a banner year for the promotion. The Fabulous Ones laid claim to being the area’s top tag team as they turned back team after team. The new year would find the Fabs and the promotion at odds with each other and the twists and turns the tag team scene would take would prove interesting. In an indirect way the Memphis promotion was involved in the battle brewing between Vince McMahon’s WWF and Ole Anderson’s WCW in 1983 as Anderson hooked up with promoter Jerry Jarrett and for nearly two months the two groups ran a circuit in the long-established Georgia circuit enabling Anderson’s group to expand into running regular shows outside Georgia. As 1984 dawned the WWF was becoming much more aggressive with their plans to expand their business. As the year unfolded Ole Anderson would call on Jerry Jarrett again to help him out. 1983 also saw three major heels, Stan Hansen, Jesse Ventura and Ken Patera all have runs in the area. With Jerry Lawler as the main focal point in the area 1984 would see some new blood challenge Lawler including an old promotional rival. Some old familiar faces would be back to challenge Lawler also, most of them at the behest of Jimmy Hart as the Lawler-Hart feud continued.
