TONY FATORA: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall, and is your Aggression Main Event of the evening! Introducing first..

[CUE UP: “Eat the Rich” by Fozzy. JA comes out to a huge pop, soaking up the crowd as he strides to the ring]

TONY FATORA: Hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he weighs in at two hundred and fifteen pounds and three eighths, he is the Anglo Luchador.. JJJJJJJ..AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

DT: Time for the main event, and JA looks in great shape coming off that hard-fought win at Unleashed inside the steel cage against Shawn Hart.

DM: After all those two did to each other over the months, I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t all over, but tonight JA’s going to be looking forwards as he takes on one of the people from the six way elimination match.

DT: You’ve got to think that what happened after that match is in the back of Melton’s mind though - his fiancée got married off to Troy Windham of all people!

MN: Hey! Lindsay couldn’t have done any better!

DM: Well, she could’ve done worse and married Neels.

MN: Ba

DT: Family show, Mike.

MN: ..bar stewards. You two are a pair of bar stewards.

[CUE UP: “I Need A Hero” by Bonnie Tyler. The legend that is Joey Melton enters the arena to a loud reception, his eyes somewhat distant and his stride mildly lethargic as he makes his way to the ring]

TONY FATORA: And his opponent, coming to us from New York City, he weighs in at two hundred and ten pounds.. He is the Sexual All American, The Unifier.. JJJJJOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEYYYYYY.. MMMMMMEEEEEELLLLLLLLLTTTTTTOOOOOOONNNNN!!

DT: Mike showing some glimmer of creativity, but look at Joey - he doesn’t look at his best.

DM: Would you be, Dave? He’s had his fiancée stolen from him, and doesn’t have the satisfaction of beating Troy Windham to a pulp tonight.

MN: As if he ever could.

DM: Love does strange things to people, Mike. And if you remember, JA took Troy Windham to the limit back in San Antonio.

MN: Troy slaughtered him!

DT: Thanks to Shawn Hart. And it was hardly slaughtered. But there’s the bell, and this match is under way! Meeting each other in the middle of the ring, and Melton with a surprise right hand to kick things off! Melton continuing with right hands, probably looking to end this one quickly, and delivers an Irish whip off the ropes, but JA just took him down with a flying headscissors! Melton just bounced back up off the bottom rope, and JA takes him down with an arm-drag. Melton up, and another arm-drag take down, and JA using his speed to good effect!

DM: JA’s a tough competitor - we’ve seen time and time again how he can use his speed to attack from just about anywhere at any time, as Melton just discovered with that dropkick to the back of the head!

DT: JA going for the cover.. just the one count there, but just like that it could all be over, as JA just scored with a powerful swinging neckbreaker!

DM: Melton’s head is definitely not in the game tonight, but if he wants to win, as hard as it is he’s going to have to forget about what’s going on between Troy Windham and Lindsay Troy

MN: Windham.

DM: and concentrate on this match.

DT: It’s a little hard to concentrate though when you get someone like JA just PLANTING you with a brain buster! Joey Melton wisely rolling to the outside, and it’s been all JA in the opening minutes of this contest.

DM: Joey Melton’s really not having any luck right now in this match. I don’t think the brain buster was as severe as it could have been, but Joey’s focus wasn’t entirely on this match when he stepped through the curtain. I think he’s realising that he’s going to have to try and forget about Lindsay for a few minutes if he wants to pick up the victory.

DT: I don’t know if he’ll be able to though. It must’ve cut like a knife when he regained consciousness and saw what happened. The referee now up to five on his count, and Melton choosing to roll back into the ring, cautiously keeping his eye on the Anglo Luchador, but will he be any more successful after that brief respite?

DM: I think there’s your answer! A hard slap right across the face by Melton, and a knee to the gut driving the air out of JA.

DT: And he goes for a side headlock!

MN: Such enthusiasm for a headlock.. yawn...

DT: Joey Melton with the headlock cinched in, as JA tries to fight out of that tight grip. Forcing him back to the ropes, slingshot reversal.. and Joey Melton telegraphed that one! Dropping the head way too early, and JA now with a headlock on Joey Melton!

DM: A rare rookie mistake from the fifteen year veteran, but he quickly manages to get JA off the ropes.

DT: Melton drops down.. AND JA FOLLOWS HIM! JA just reapplied the side headlock when Joey Melton was looking for him to go over the top! You can hear the frustration as Melton kicks at the canvas! He just can’t catch a break here.

MN: He’s old, he should just call it quits and retire now.

DT: Don’t count out his career, Mike. Everyone has a bad day.

MN: Not Troy Windham!

DM: I’m sure Lindsay’s giving him plenty of bad days.

MN: Nah, she’s just playing hard to get.

DM: I somehow doubt that. You may think when a woman says they hate you they’re playing hard to get, but they really do mean they hate you. Especially you.

MN: Yeah.. well.. at least I’ve never been my own mystery wrestler.

DM: If that’s the best you can come up with, I’ve won.

DT: In the ring, JA still has the headlock locked in on the canvas. The referee is trying to see if it’s a choke hold, but Melton starting to try and worm his way out of it.. ROLL UP!

ONE!!

TWO!!

No! JA manages to roll both men back to the canvas as Melton tried for the quick counter. Melton trying again, but only gets a two count! This has got to be frustrating, but finally JA releases the hold, and drops the elbow straight across the chest of Joey Melton as he tried to roll away!

MN: He’s making Melton look like a first match rookie out there!

DM: I never thought I’d see the day that happened.

DT: JA now picking Melton up, and he slams him down hard there before dropping the leg down. Another cover

TWO!!

Kickout just after the count there! One of the things that makes JA so good is his ability to change pace - I don’t know of many better at going from mile a minute to marathon pace just like that.

DM: Joey Melton again going out to the floor, and I’m not sure if he’s able to get back into this match. He’s too distracted.

DT: JA not giving him any time though as he follows him out! Spins him round, and a hard chop to the chest! You could hear the smack from here, and Melton is trying to get away from him!

DM: This is becoming sad.

DT: JA follows Melton, and bounces his head off the ring apron! Grabs the head and lands a stiff forearm shot there, and he looks to repeat the apron trick BUT MELTON BLOCKS IT! Joey Melton with an elbow to the gut and thumb to the eye in quick succession, and he might finally be able to build some momentum after smashing JA face first into the apron. He rolls him back into the ring, and JA looks dazed.

DM: He might be bleeding, but we won’t be able to tell for a short while because of the mask.

DT: Joey Melton looking to slow the pace down now, as he drives a knee down into the inside of JA’s left leg there, following up with a hard stomp to the hamstring.

DM: It’s a smart move - not only will it set up for the figure four, but it might slow JA down if he regains the advantage.

DT: Spinning toe-hold there, and JA just slaps the mat in pain!

DM: He’s got to be very careful not to let his shoulders get counted whilst he’s down there - it’s rare, but I have seen people lose track of where their shoulders are when they’re in a hold like this. They’re too focused on the pain.

DT: The good news for Joey Melton though is he doesn’t have to concentrate too hard to just keep the pressure on, right?

DM: Smart man.

MN: First time for everything.

DM: And maybe one day you’ll have yours.

MN: HEY!!

DT: Joey Melton’s certainly having it his own way right now, as he tightens his grip with a look of determination on his face. Has he finally started concentrating on the match?

DM: He might ha

DT: ROLLUP BY JA!!

ONE!!

TWO!!

THKICKOUT!! Joey Melton left himself open to an inside cradle as he applied the pressure there, and the masked Luchador so very almost made him pay for it! Sorry to interrupt you, Dean.

DM: No problem. As I was saying, Melton may have started to focus on this match more than what’s going on with Mister and Missus Windham, but he still left himself open to a nice roll-up manoeuvre .

MN: Very French sounding there Matthews.

DM: Merci, Neels.

DT: I don’t think Joey Melton’s giving any merci’s right now though, as JA just took him down with a drop toe-hold and sprang back up to dropkick him full on in the face as he was getting back up! He’s now got Melton up by the hair, and pushes him back into the corner.

Crowd: WOOOOH!

DT: Oh boy.

Crowd: WOOOH!

DT: Hard chops here in the corner by JA, and the crowd are

Crowd: WOOOOOOOH!!

DT: ..loving it.

MN: It’s part of the fun, Wendy.

DT: .. I never get a break with that, do I?

[As Dave and Mike argue, JA springs up onto the second rope, before flying off to plants his feet squarely in the side of the legend’s head. Melton’s head snaps over, causing him to drop hard to the canvas]

DT: JA setting Melton in position now, maybe looking to finish this.. and a big splash from the second rope!

One..

TWO..

NO! Joey Melton at the last second there getting the shoulder up, and after that drop kick, you’ve got to think his brain’s even more scrambled!

MN: Scrambled brains - get them at Wendy’s!

DM: Joey Melton is in a lot of trouble though - he’s taken a couple of hard shots to the head, and he was clearly disorientated to begin with. It might help get his mind on the job at hand, or it might make him even more disorientated.

DT: JA picking Melton again, turning him around.. SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX!! JOEY MELTON JUST DROPPED BACK OVER HIS OWN NECK FROM THE IMPACT THERE!

MN: Ow..ouch.. that hurt just watching it!

DT: But he’s not going for the cover! JA picking Melton up again, and a sickening snap as he connects with an Enziguri there! The cover

One..

TWO!!

THRNO!! Joey Melton manages to get the left shoulder up, and that had to be on instinct! I don’t think ANYONE could still be thinking clearly after a dropkick to the head, that suplex, and then an enziguri!

DM: Don’t count Melton out yet. He’s been in tougher matches, and say what you will about his age, he’s still got a lot of fight left in him.

DT: How much that lot might be though is the question. JA’s been relentless in his attacks, and he’s outsmarted anything Melton’s tried!

DM: Maybe, but there’s still life in this match.

DT: The Luchador now picking Melton back up off the canvas, but a thumb to the eyes gives him the time to plant his masked opponent with a side Russian legsweep!

DM: Told you.

DT: Joey Melton getting a quick two count on the cover there, picking JA up and returns the favour for those chops earlier!

Crowd: WOOOOOH!!

DT: Another stiff chop across the chest, and he follows it up with an abdominal stretch. He’s looking to wear JA down and catch his breath at the same time.

DM: And give himself some time to think - you can see by the way he’s wrapped the leg round that he’s using this hold properly, and he’s leaning back far enough that even if JA wanted to, he couldn’t hip-toss him out. Meanwhile he’s leaving the ribs exposed, and stretching them on that side too - this move does a lot more damage than it’s name implies.

DT: And Melton’s showing us how much by driving the point of his elbow down hard into the ribs of JA! JA just shouting in pain as the referee’s asking him if he wants to call it quits. The torque on the ribs has got to be excruciating! I don’t think I’ve EVER seen this move put on so well!

MN: Troy Windham could do better.

DT: He’s not in this match, Mike. JA’s tensing his right arm though, he’s trying to get Joey off-balance enough for a hip-toss, but Melton’s having none of it as he pulls back even harder! Another scream from JA, and the crowd are trying to rally him!

Crowd: *clapclapclapclapclapclapclapclap*

DT: JA still trying to fight his way out of this.. but Melton releases the hold, connecting with a hard smash to the ribs and SPIKING JA down with a DDT! There’s the cover

TWO!!

KICKOUT! Joey Melton getting some control here, and he might have had it there.

MN: Except for the fact he didn’t. Real smart Dave. DT: I’ll ignore that. Joey Melton taking his time here, letting JA get back to his feet before DRILLING him with a hard right hand! JA reeling back, and Melton steps in with a schoolboy rollup!!

One..

TWO!!

THRNO!! JA managing to roll the shoulder up there, but Joey Melton stays in control, stomping on the inside of JA’s knee!

DM: Finally, Melton showing why he’s so highly regarded even at his age.

DT: Melton sends JA into the corner hard there, following it up with a hard clothesline knocking the air right out of the Anglo Luchador! Melton letting JA droop in the corner as he looks around, firmly in control at this point, and a hard knee drives yet more air out of his opponent!

DM: Melton’s still being cautious though - he looks a little groggy still, but that didn’t stop him just laying out JA with a shortarm clothesline!

DT: The cover..

TWO!!

NO!! JA JUST manages to get the right shoulder up that time, and Melton’s arguing with the ref that it was three!

MN: He’s just telling the ref he doesn’t know how to count. Now, if that were Troy Windham in the ref’s shirt

DM: I’m sure Joey Melton would’ve forgotten the match and killed him.

MN: HAH!

DT: Melton really not pleased with the referee, sneering at him as he picks JA back up off the canvas. He measures him, and connects with a hard right hand, knocking JA down! JA back up, and Melton measures him again.. BLOCKED!! JA with a right of his own! Melton tries to fire back BUT HE’S BLOCKED AGAIN! JA JUST TOOK OUT THE KNEE OF JOEY MELTON WITH A DROPKICK!!

DM: And just like that, momentum can change again.

DT: JA very slow to get back to his feet though! It’s a good thing for him he connected squarely with that dropkick to the front of Melton’s knee, because that’s slowed Melton down enough to give him a chance to recover!

DM: But Joey Melton’s still up first, holding the knee slightly, but vertical.

DT: Melton stalking JA as best he can, and he hooks the head, looking for a suplex.. BLOCKED!! Melton tries again.. BLOCKED!! JA trying now for a suplex, BUT MELTON BLOCKS IT! Melton pushes JA back into the corner BUT JA SPINS HIM ROUND INTO IT! JA with repeated hard shoulders to the gut, and Joey Melton’s almost slumped over his shoulder with that last one! I cannot believe how hard JA was just ramming Melton with the shoulder!

MN: Not the first time Joey’s been man-rammed.

DT: FAMILY SHOW MIKE!!

MN: What? He’s admitted it enough times.

DT: You don’t need to say it though! JA propping Melton up in the corner, and a hard right hand rocks him back some more! Irish whip across the ring, and Melton BARELY able to stay on his feet with the impact! JA follows him in with a HARD spear in the corner for good measure!

DM: Big move time.

DT: JA setting Melton up on the top rope, and he rocks him with a right hand! JA following him up AND THEY’RE BOTH ON THE TOP ROPE!! MELTON TRYING TO FIGHT OUT OF THIS, AS JA CLUBS HIM ACROSS THE BACK!! JA hooking the head of Melton BUT MELTON BLOCKS THE SUPLEX WITH A RIGHT HAND!

MN: THAT’S USING THE OL’ NOGGIN!

DT: SKULL CRACKING AGAINST SKULL THERE AS MELTON SENDS JA DOWN WITH A HEADBUTT! MELTON DOWN TO THE CANVAS, GRABBING THE LEGS OF JA HEY! HE’S GOT HIS FEET ON THE ROPES!!

DM: The ref’s counting..

ONE!!

DT: NOT LIKE THIS!!

DM: TWO!!

DT: THREE!! THREE!! JOEY MELTON JUST STOLE THE WIN FROM JA!!

[sfx: bell rings]

TONY FATORA: Th’ winner of this match, by pinfall.. JJJJJJOOOOOOOEEEEEYYYY MMMMEEEEEEEELLLLLLTTTTTTTOOOOOOOONNNNNN!!!

[CUE UP: “I Need A Hero” by Bonnie Tyler, as Joey Melton quickly gets out of the ring, and JA argues with the referee]

DT: Joey Melton just screwed JA out of the win, after JA pretty much dominated most of the match!!
