They are greeted by a legion of cheers from the capacity audience as they make their MWA debut. They nod at each other. Randal and Jeff sprint down to the ring, slide under the ropes. They go to opposing turnbuckles, leap on the middle turnbuckle, raise there hands in the air at the same time to soak in the heat they have earned from previous wrestling stints.
Kendra: And their opponents…
“Ok, time for plan B” by Enter Shikari begins to play out over the PA system as Benjamin Doi appears at the top of the entrance ramp.
Kendra: First; from Chicago, Illinois; here is “The Omega Man”, Benjamin Doi.
Doi makes his way down to the ring and stops just outside, waiting for his partner. There is a disturbance in the crowd and after a few short moments August Joyce appears as he hops over the security railing. He is still bloodied and bruised, still wearing the same ring gear from over eighteen months ago and his last MWA Pay-Per-View appearance.
Kendra: And his partner; from Vancouver, Canada; He is “The Peoples Choice”, August Joyce!

Regi: Are we in for a show of “anything you can do” tonight?

Poe: Back Hollywood going good early on here in this match

Baxter: Is Joyce in any fit condition to wrestle tonight?
Poe: He looks fired up, but I don’t think he is 100% ready

Regi: Ouch, that is going to hurt.
