00:00And from Nashville, Tennessee, weighing 137 pounds, Debbie Combs.
00:07Debbie Combs tangles with Sherry Lynn, a special attraction on Wrestling at the Chase today.
00:17And with us at ringside is Debbie Combs' mother, Cora.
00:20Cora, welcome to St. Louis.
00:21We're very happy to have you here.
00:22Thank you very much, Larry.
00:23It's a pleasure to be here.
00:24I know.
00:25One of the reasons you're here is to possibly sign for a match on Wrestling at the Chase
00:29next week, yourself, in a singles match.
00:31Oh, yes.
00:32Well, I'm supposed to come back in, and Sam Mushnick, I hope, will assign me in to a mother
00:37and daughter team, too, but I'm also on a single, also, next week.
00:44Very good.
00:45That's something that I know that Sam Mushnick has hoped to do for some time, a mother-daughter
00:48tag team combination.
00:49Let's see.
00:50We have the Von Erichs father and son, now we'll have the Combs mother and daughter.
00:53Yes, that's right.
00:54I don't think that's but one other mother and daughter that does wrestle, and I think
01:01Sherri Lynn's mother, Ann Jeanette, and she was injured last night in an accident.
01:07I see.
01:08Yes.
01:09Have you ever wrestled with Debbie before as a tag team combination?
01:12Oh, yes.
01:13Yes, I have.
01:14Yes.
01:15Is it a little bit different than having another girl as your partner?
01:17Well, yes.
01:18Well, when you stand in the corner and she's getting a punishing hold, well, naturally,
01:23you get a little funny going on.
01:25A little different outlook on things.
01:26Oh, yes.
01:27Yes.
01:28Sherri Lynn manages to bring Debbie, she has Debbie by the hair for a flying bear.
01:32Something like that has to bother you a little bit more with your daughter.
01:35Well, yes.
01:36But I've taught her well and she can take care of herself.
01:40If she loses her temper, she'll come back there and get it carried into her because
01:45she can wrestle any way that her opponent wants to.
01:48She can get just as dirty as her if she wants to.
01:51It seems like Sherri Lynn wants to do that just now.
01:53Debbie flips her over, however, once more with a type of monkey flip.
01:57Debbie Combs tosses Sherri Lynn clear across the ring.
02:01Sherri Lynn hangs on to those ropes and then manages to turn Debbie around and clubs Debbie
02:06in the midsection.
02:08Flying bear by Sherri Lynn.
02:10Did Debbie always want to be a wrestler?
02:12Did you have any, maybe, doubts about letting her get into wrestling?
02:15Well, no.
02:16I never wanted her to become a wrestler, but she kept on and she kept on.
02:20She says, well, Mother, I want to be just like you.
02:23And I said, well, see, wrestling is on the road and traveling a lot.
02:27And it's a lonely life.
02:29And I wanted something else for her.
02:32But she says, no, that she'd want to be a lady wrestler.
02:35So I said, well, it's up to you if you want to.
02:39So I've tried to do my best and train her.
02:46Ten minutes left.
02:47Ten minutes.
02:49Cork Combs is our guest at ringside as her daughter Debbie
02:53tries to keep her shoulders off the mat while caught in a step-over toehold by Sherri Lynn.
02:59Sherri Lynn isn't very tall, but I know she's quite a competitor.
03:03A very scrappy young lady.
03:05I tell you, Larry, they call her Dynamite.
03:08Little Dynamite.
03:09And she said, yeah, because that Dynamite comes in small packages.
03:13So, and she lives up to her name on that.
03:16And right now she has Debbie in a bit of trouble, but a beautiful counter.
03:19Double toehold, Debbie Combs comes up with on Sherri Lynn.
03:23Now, did you teach her that move or did she learn it on her own?
03:25No, no, I do that too.
03:26She's copied a lot of my holds and my style, which I'm very proud of.
03:30Because I've been around for quite a few years.
03:34And I try to get the best counter on all the holds that I can see.
03:38And I watch most all the wrestling.
03:40And if I see a good hold, I try to conquer it.
03:44Do you follow the men in wrestling too and maybe try to boss with their moves too?
03:47Oh yes, oh yes.
03:48There's a lot of good wrestling holds that are used.
03:52But some of them, you can't get the hang of it.
03:58There's definitely a strength and a difference in stature.
04:00Some holds will work and some might not.
04:02You have to use what works best for you.
04:04Yes, yes, sir.
04:05It's been quite a while since I was here, Larry.
04:07But it's your pleasure to be back.
04:09And I've talked to Sam and I'm trying to get him to sign us up.
04:13He gave me a little answer, almost promised it.
04:17But I don't know.
04:18I hope he'll sign us up.
04:20That hope there really is.
04:22Debbie took a hard bounce there.
04:24Sherri Lynn catapulting Debbie across the ring again.
04:27Debbie in a little trouble right now.
04:29But Lynn misses the giant splash.
04:33Debbie grabs the legs of Lynn.
04:34And look out because Sherri Lynn, little dynamite,
04:37takes a hard spill compliments of Debbie Combs.
04:41Debbie with a flying mare.
04:46Lynn tossed across the ring and into the buckles.
04:49Debbie cautiously comes up behind and drives a knee
04:53into the head of Sherri Lynn.
04:55A running knee lift.
04:56Oh, look out.
04:57Look out.
04:58Hard spill.
04:59And Cora Combs has to be worried about her daughter right here.
05:02Very bad spill over the top rope taken by Debbie Combs.
05:07Cora training to look over and see if her daughter's up.
05:10She's on her feet, Cora.
05:12She's okay.
05:14But she has to be shaking a little bit after a fall
05:17like that clear over the top rope.
05:21Makes you a little nervous when you sit here and watch.
05:24It's different when you're in there yourself.
05:27I can see you're a little fidgety.
05:29Yeah, I'm a little nervous.
05:31I can understand that.
05:33Debbie in trouble here.
05:34This is most falls in the curfew between Sherri Lynn
05:37and Debbie Combs.
05:38The lady with the most falls when time expires
05:40will be the winner.
05:45Debbie manages to turn Sherri around.
05:48Debbie pounds away with forearm slashes at Sherri Lynn.
05:54Debbie with the body scissors on Sherri Lynn.
05:57I can remember Cora Combs with the body scissors
05:59in that position.
06:00It seems to me I know what she did right here.
06:02Oh, that's right.
06:04Sherri might be doing some bouncing
06:06and actually getting her tights snapped.
06:09She's pulling the strip.
06:11Her suit strip.
06:13The more angry Sherri Lynn gets,
06:14the more likely she is to make a mistake.
06:16The crowd loves it.
06:19Look out, she's going for a ride.
06:23Combs away.
06:26I know you taught her that
06:27because I've seen you use exactly that move, Cora.
06:29Have you seen me do that?
06:31I've seen you score many of them.
06:32Yeah, I like that.
06:33I like that hold.
06:36It's called the keister bump.
06:38What do you call that?
06:39The keister bump.
06:40The keister bump.
06:41Yes, the keister bump.
06:42Should I ask how you named it that or not?
06:44Well, look at it.
06:45Look at it.
06:47Yeah, yeah.
06:50You get the scissors
06:51and the leg scissors around the waist
06:54and then you squeeze
06:55and it puts pressure on your ribs
06:57and then you bring them up
06:59and bring them down
07:00to what you call a keister bump.
07:01Makes it even more effective, really.
07:02Oh, yes, yes.
07:03A lot more pressure against the ribs.
07:04Never really thought of it that way.
07:06Most fans look at it as a hard way to sit down.
07:08But really, there's a lot more to it than that.
07:10That's right.
07:11Sherri Lynn with a wrist lock
07:13and a little hair pulling.
07:15Lee Warren caught her pulling hair
07:16and Lee wants Sherri to break it.
07:20We're seeing Cora Kolb's daughter in action here
07:22and we're going to see next weekend
07:24another one of the Von Erich clan in action
07:26because Teenage Sensation's Carrie Von Erich
07:29will make his St. Louis television debut
07:31next weekend on Wristing in the Chase.
07:33Plus, we'll see Cora Kolb's in action
07:35so next weekend already shaking up
07:37as quite a program.
07:41Five minutes left.
07:42Five minutes.
07:44Five minutes remaining in the curfew.
07:46Neither girl has come up with a fall yet.
07:48What's the time limit on this, Lee?
07:50It's a curfew time limit.
07:51So actually, when time of the show runs out,
07:53whoever has the most falls will be the winner.
07:55That's a lot of pressure that first fall, doesn't it?
08:00Lee Warren cautioned Sherri Lynn
08:02about doing what Cora Kolb was doing earlier.
08:05I guess, Cora, you learn pretty quick.
08:07Whatever you can do to someone else,
08:09they can do to you.
08:11That's right.
08:13That's right.
08:15For yourself, when you get in that ring,
08:17you have to always...
08:19Larry, my motto is,
08:21when I get in there, if they hit me,
08:23I hit them just as hard.
08:25And I'm in there to win.
08:27Yes, I try.
08:29I'm in there to win.
08:31I'll do anything to win.
08:33In a scientific way, that is.
08:37Sometimes that's not always possible.
08:39You have to fight fire with fire.
08:41Sometimes I get mad, you know.
08:43You have a temper, too.
08:45Oh, yes. That's where Debbie gets her temper.
08:47That's where Debbie got hers.
08:49Sherri Lynn right now has the edge, though,
08:51with that step over toehold.
08:53It's been a pretty even battle to this point.
08:55Yes, it has.
08:57She's putting extra pressure against that ankle.
08:59Debbie kicks her away.
09:01She comes up with a step over toehold of her own.
09:05I guess you have to be happy with Debbie.
09:09She's demanded.
09:11She's going to Japan for six weeks
09:13in Fiji Islands.
09:15She's going to Puerto Rico.
09:17She's traveling quite a bit.
09:19I'm pretty proud of her.
09:23The ladies champion, the fabulous Luna.
09:25I guess we're going a little hard.
09:27You'd like to win her back.
09:29You'd like to be in a tag match with her.
09:33Sherri Lynn pulling Debbie Coles here.
09:35Debbie hanging on to her leg,
09:37but Sherri Lynn is up on top
09:39because they're in the ropes.
09:43I tell you, Larry, I'd like to wrestle Luna
09:45anywhere for the world's title.
09:47Most all the girl wrestlers, that's what,
09:49they're gold, and that's a dirty blow, isn't it?
09:51Yes, it was. Sherri Lynn, boy,
09:53she's living up to her reputation.
09:55You told us about her.
09:57She grabs the eyes, a little eye gouge,
09:59and knocking Debbie down.
10:01She's rubbing her eyes with something.
10:05She's got something in her tights
10:07that she's using on the eyes
10:09and face of Debbie Coles.
10:11Lee Warren trying to catch up
10:13with Sherri Lynn and see what she's doing.
10:15I don't have any reference position, Larry.
10:17I obviously can't search her very well.
10:19Sometimes if you notice, Larry,
10:21the referees stay away from the women.
10:23I don't know why.
10:25I don't know why.
10:27Maybe they're a little leery of...
10:29A little intimidated of her.
10:31Yes.
10:33Debbie rolls out of the ring
10:35to try and regain her equilibrium.
10:37Two minutes left. Two minutes.
10:43Less than two minutes remaining.
10:45No falls yet between Debbie Coles
10:47and Sherri Lynn.
10:49Debbie trying to make her way
10:51back to the ring as Lee Warren
10:53corner cones as well as the ringside.
10:55I think she's getting more and more
10:57worried about how this match is going.
10:59That's true.
11:01Sherri Lynn has broken a few rules.
11:03Two more minutes.
11:05Debbie whipped into the corner
11:07by Sherri Lynn who charges in
11:09with a knee to the stomach.
11:11Come on, girl.
11:13Sherri again with a knee to the stomach
11:15of Debbie Coles.
11:17She charges again.
11:19Debbie caught that arm.
11:21Victory roll.
11:23Victory roll.
11:27She earned that hold well
11:29from you, Mrs. Coles.
11:31Debbie Coles with the first fall
11:33and it looks like it's going to be
11:35the only fall thanks to the curfew
11:37because the curfew would be
11:39eaten up by the rest period so Debbie Coles
11:41with that fall has recorded
11:43a victory here on Wrestling at the Chase.
11:45Cora Coles, thanks for joining us.
11:47We'll be looking forward to seeing you in action
11:49and I hope to be back up here
11:51and then I want to tag next too.
