MWA: August vs. Jeff Starxxxx – No DQ

Kendra- Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match is a no disqualification match. First, let me introduce your referee for this encounter. He is MICK MONSOON!!!!

Poe- What? Monsoon’s back!?

Regi- Amazing. And just in time to officiate an August Joyce match?

Baxter- Now that’s what you call good timing!

Monsoon makes his way to the ring to a chorus of cheers and people chanting his name. Mick has a massive smile on his face as he enters the ring. Mick is given a microphone by Kendra Wing.

Mick- Thank you Miami!

Cheap pop.

Mick- And thank you Major Richard Kendall for helping me get away from August Joyce and his asshat of a boss. I’d like to announce that not only am I a free man, but MWA director, Earls Bickelsbottoms has also been safely returned to us.

Another pop from the crowd.

Mick- And, to the person responsible… watch your backs. The MWA is gunning for you! You will NEVER keep us down!

Mick hands the microphone back having suitably made the most of his time on the mic.

Poe- Good news indeed, Mick and Earls are back where they belong!

Kendra- And now, coming to the ring by way of Hollywood, California. He is JEFFREY ALEXANDER STARXXXX!!

“Whoa” by Black Rob echo’s from the loud speakers as Jeff Starxxxx storms from the backstage area with Randal Williams accompanying him. Jeff stops to soak in the unfavorable crowd reaction. He points to the ring. Randal storms down to the ring ahead of him. Jeff beats his chest, drops down to his knees, looks to the heavens as the pyrotechnic display goes off behind him. Once the one minute display ends, he hops back to his feet. He sprints down to the ring, he slides under the bottom rope. He rises to his feet. He begins shadow boxing, indicating tonight he isn’t here to entertain, he’s looking for a fight.

Poe- Jeff Starxxxx will be up for this match, no doubt.

Regi- This match is all about retribution!

Baxter- I thought it was about revenge!?

Poe- …

Baxter- What?

Regi- Oh dear. Just, oh dear.

Then “Ok, time for plan B” by Enter Shikari begins to play out over the PA system to a chorus of boos.

Kendra- And his opponent, from Vancouver, Canada. He is the former MWA Millennium Champion and member of the Children of Xu, AUGUST JOYCE!!

Joyce appears on the entrance ramp, flanked by two MWA security guards and being lead to the ring by the head of MWA security, Dante. Joyce has his hands cuffed behind his back as he is marched to the ring.

Poe- Looks like August Joyce is in custody and being forced into this match!

Baxter- Good! After what he did to me!

Regi- He didn’t do a damn thing to you! You were safe locked in your damn car!

Joyce reaches the steps to the ring where he stops. Dante pulls some keys from his pocket and unlocks August’s handcuffs. August climbs into the ring and looks across at Starxxxx with an embarrassed expression.

DING DING DING

Poe- Mick Monsoon calls for the bell, here we go!

Jeff Starxxxx makes the first move as he lunges for Joyce, grabbing him and pushing him back into the ropes. Starxxxx begins to lay in some big punches to Joyce, connecting hard in the gut, chest and a few big blows to the chin too. Straight away August is rocked and tries to sidestep out of the way, falling into the turnbuckle instead.

August pulls himself to his feet and Starxxxx grabs him again, whips him into the ropes and takes him down with a powerslam. He makes a cover,

1….
2….
Kickout!

Poe- A quick count there from Mick Monsoon, possibly a signal of what’s to come in this match.

Regi- If I was Mick I’d count slow, prolong the pain for August Joyce!

August gets back to his feet and Starxxxx skips around him, trying to intimidate him with his quickness and hopefully throw Joyce off balance. Joyce tries to grab Jeff a few times but Jeff bobs and weaves, evading his opponent. He then begins to kick August in the side, first one side and then the other. August tries to block but the kicks are hard and wearing down his defences. He looks tired and dazed and Jeff relents on his attack momentarily.

Joyce nails a swift kick to the groin and clotheslines Starxxxx to the mat. Starxxxx gets back to his feet and whips Joyce into the ropes before connecting with a shoulder barge. Joyce is staggering and Starxxxx runs in with another shoulder in an attempt to take Joyce off him feet. Joyce still stays up and Starxxxx rushes in again, only for Joyce to take Jeff down with a huge Spinebuster!

Poe- August Joyce showing that there is some fight in him still, despite everything he’s been through.

Joyce goes to pick Starxxxx up but Jeff trips his opponent and sends him crashing through the ropes to the arena floor. Starxxxx slides out after Joyce and grabs him from behind, taking him down with a big elbow to the back, and then a kick to the lower back. Joyce pushes Starxxxx back into the guardrail and then whips him into the steel steps. Jeff holds his back in pain as Joyce looks under the ring and pulls out a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire!

Poe- OH HELL NAW!

Regi- Joyce is first to a weapon. This could spell danger!

Poe- And what is referee Mick Monsoon doing? He’s letting him keep hold of that thing!

Baxter- He has to, it’s no DQ!

Joyce grabs Starxxxx’s head and rams it into the steps again before working over the back of the Black Hollywood member with the baseball bat. Jeff’s back is seriously scratched now, and blood pours from his wounds. Joyce then begins to pull Starxxxx up the aisle. About halfway up Starxxxx begins to break free and Joyce quickly grabs him again and drops him onto the concrete floor with a snap suplex. Joyce pulls Starxxxx up and continues to pull him up the aisle to the entrance ramp under the MillenniumScope. Joyce goes to whip Starxxxx into the set but Jeff reverses it and his opponent is the one who hits the scaffold hard. The whole MillenniumScope shakes as Joyce drops to his knees, holding his neck in pain.

Poe- Nice reversal from Starxxxx, but this match is getting quite hardcore!

Baxter- The whole damn screen almost fell over, this is great to watch, these two trying to destroy each other!

Starxxxx grabs Joyce and the two disappear behind the entrance curtain. The camera catches up with them as Starxxxx slams Joyce onto a table, production notes flying everywhere and crew scattering amidst the madness. Starxxxx makes a cover, and referee Mick Monsoon counts,

1…

2…

Kick-out from Joyce.

Poe- This quickly becoming a pinfalls anywhere match!

Starxxxx has pulled Joyce back to his feet and whips him into a wall before charging in with a chair. Joyce manages to duck and then grabs Starxxxx from behind and nails a reverse DDT onto the chair. Joyce doesn’t make a cover, instead he decides to pick Starxxxx up and drag him over to a large, empty part of the arena. Joyce rolls Starxxxx onto a catering table, and then throws food all over Jeff before trying to push a vending machine over. Joyce manages to push the machine over, but Starxxxx has rolled out of the way and avoids the heavy machine.

Regi- Jeez, August is really going out for blood!

Baxter- This is some crazy shit.

Starxxxx is back to his feet and hooks up with Joyce. Jeff spins round behind August, locking his arms around his waist. He lifts Joyce into the air and over his head, tossing him on top of the fallen vending machine with a big release German Suplex. He makes a cover, amidst a pile of glass, metal and leaking cola cans,

1…

2…

Kickout!

Poe- Not sure how Mick can tell if his shoulder was up, considering August Joyce is currently moulded into the side of that vending machine!

Baxter- Damn you Jeffrey, I was going to get a drink from that machine!

Joyce rolls off the machine, clutching his lower back. Glass has shattered under him and his back has been cut in several places, blood now dripping from his body. Starxxxx is also still bleeding from the back and he takes a rest against a wall, allowing Joyce to expend energy getting back to his feet.

Jeff waits for August to get up and then moves to grab him. August punches Jeff in the gut, then again. Then a kick to the knee which makes Jeff stumble. August moves quickly, grabbing him and hoisting him into the air. And then… BAM!

Poe- CANADIAN BACKBREAKER PILEDRIVER!

Regi- ON TO CONCRETE!

Baxter- COVER HIM!!

August does make a cover and Mick Monsoon drops to start the count, but is hesitant. Eventually he does start to count,

1…

2…

KICKOUT!

Poe- How the hell did Jeff get himself out of that one!?

Regi- I think the slow count from Mick Monsoon helped somewhat!

August looks stunned and argues with Mick as Jeff slowly recovers and gets back to his feet. August grabs him again, getting in position for the Qing Ri (FTX) but Jeff fights his way out of the move and grabs August in return, nailing a Northern Lights suplex. Jeff looks up and sees a light fitting above him. He jumps, grabs hold of the cable and hangs in the air. He swings back and forth, gaining momentum with each swing.

Baxter- What the hell is he up to?

Poe- I don’t know, but if I was Joyce I’d be concerned!

Jeff swings one last time and then lets go of the light cable. He spins in the air before crashing down on Joyce with a Shooting Star Elbow Drop! Monsoon is down for the cover,

3!!

DING DING DING

Kendra- Your winner, by way of pinfall, JEFF STARXXXX!!!

Baxter- What the hell kind of ending was that?

Regi- An impressive one!

Poe- Indeed, a stunning move to put paid to August Joyce!
