Laura Watts:This next match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first from Kingfield Maine, weighing in at 220lbs. He is known as Mr. Match of the Night! Greg Samuels!!!!

Give it Away by Chile Peppers hits the PA sending the fans in attendance screaming and cheering as Greg Samuel is quick out onto the stage. He wears a black vest with the hood down as well as a pair of black baggy, light material shorts that extend down to his black and blue kick pads. Samuel pumps up the crowd a little bit as he heads down the ramp at a moderate pace, slapping some fans hands.

Ted Cedar:Listen to that reaction from the fans! He may have been gone, but the fans still remember him and appear generally happy to see him return. This match could be a real test for him though as he is stepping into the ring with the new comer, in Tyson Smith who we have yet to see in action. Who doesn't look like someone you would want to play with.

Joey Miles:You know Ted, I really don't give a flying rat's ass about Samuels big return. I never liked him while he was here and you can not expect me to like him now.

Once he gets to the ring, he jumps up to the apron on one knee and then pulls himself up with the top rope to a vertical base. In a swift turn, Samuel begins his way to the corner on his right-hand side. He gets up to the second rope and puts a foot on the top rope, pointing out to the crowd. Samuel then grabs onto both sides of the top rope and flips into the ring, landing on his feet. He takes off his vest and shorts and throws them off to the outside of the ring, revealing his blue, white and black tights with a GS on the front left in black and Samuel on the back in the three colors rearranged and then uses the ropes to warm up a little bit before he starts his match. 

Laura Watts:And his opponent, making his way towards the ring weighing in at 350lbs from Nagoya Japan! He is accompanied by Xander Cage, he is the BullDawg Tyson Smith!!!!!!!!!!!

Last Chance Saloon begins to play throughout the arena, the titan tron kicks to life showing videos of Tyson Smith hitting various moves on random opponents, Xander Cage is first to step out from behind the curtain and he slowly saunters his way down to the ring as Smith busts out from behind the curtain, he gives a two finger salute to the crowd, getting them to boo. Smith slowly makes his way down to the ring, his eyes you would assume are focused on his opponent as his glasses cover his eyes.

Ted Cedars:Well, color me impressed, this is a big mean scary son of a gun. You look at him as he makes his way to the ring. He appears to be all business and the fans showed how much they like him when he double saluted them.

Joey Miles:Well fuck me! This guy is a bit scary looking, I mean I have seen some mean son of a bitches before, but damn not sure they compare to him.

Xander is first into the ring, and his cheesy smile hogs the hard camera before Tyson enters the ring. Tyson makes his way to the nearest turnbuckle, grabbing the top ropes he climbs up standing on the middle turnbuckle, looking out to the crowd he shoots both of his arms into the air before giving a two finger salute. Fans boo loudly at the show of disrespect from the new comer. He drops down from the turnbuckle and walks over to his corner as Xander exits out of the ring. The Ring attendant grabs Tyson's jacket, hat and glasses. Tyson turns to face  Samuels who appears as ready as can be.


The two superstars circle the ring, each one sizing up the other. Samuels knowing that there is a 100+ lbs weight difference knows that he is going to have to be quick and fast if he wants to survive. Tyson screams “Come on!” Both superstars charge and lock up in a collar and elbow tie up. Tyson easily gets the advantage and begins to slowly push Samuels back into the nearest ring corner. The ref runs over and calls for the break, Samuels gets his hands in between the bigger man's arms and starts to push up to defend himself, as Tyson slowly breaks the hold, only to bring the toe of his boot into Samuels stomach, that is followed up by another boot to the gut, followed by a third boot, each blow from the impact knocks the wind out of his body. The Bulldawg locks up smiles slyly before leaning his shoulder into the chest of his opponent and then pulling back as he pulls Mr. Match of the Night out of the turnbuckle sending him running with a lot of speed towards the far corner. Samuels turns as his whole back makes contact with the turnbuckles, the impact jars his spine and dulls his senses.

Joey Miles:That looks like that would fucken hurt, did you see the impact.

Tyson growls as he slowly starts to run across the ring, thoughts of crushing his opponent in the corner. Those thoughts are interrupted as an elbow makes contact with his jaw, stopping him and causing him to stumble back a few paces, Tyson charges again but this time eats turnbuckle as the quickness of Samuels comes into play, which is followed by a school boy for a quick pin. The ref drops to the mat, slapping it once, raising the arm and slapping it twice before Tyson is able to kick out. Both wrestlers get to there feet, Tyson has a scowl on his face as the two superstars lock up once again.  This time Samuels gets the advantage and applies a side head lock wrenching down has hard as he can in hopes of weakening the bigger man. Tyson feels the left arm around his carotid artery and the air being slowly cut off.

Ted Cedar:It would appear that Mr. Match of the Night got the one up and almost ended the match with that school boy. Smart move by Greg to weaken his opponent with the side headlock.

Tyson takes his right hand, placing it on the right shoulder of Samuels he pushes forward with all his might, causing Samuel to lose his grip and run towards the far ropes. Samuel turns as his back hits the ropes, using them for extra spring as he charges towards a waiting Tyson. Tyson grins as he prepares his arm for a closeline, only to find it catch air as Samuel ducks under and runs, jumps, springboards off the second rope flipping his body and landing a toe kick to the top back of Tyson's head the impact enough to stun Tyson and cause him to wobble. Devin quickly ascends to the top rope and perches waiting for the BullDawg to get up, Tyson slowly gets up to one knee before finely standing all the way up back to Mr. Match of the Night.

Tyson turns to where Samuels is perched and at that point Samuels springs off and wraps his legs around Tyson's head and tries to flip him over with a hurricanranna but Tyson blocks the move, then puts his hands on the back of Greg Samuels lifting him up, Mr. Match of the Night realizing what is about to happen begins to punch down onto Tyson's head trying to get free, but before he gets his third punch to land he feels himself flying into the turnbuckle. His back hits the turnbuckle with force as he then slumps down. Tyson smiles as the turnbuckle powerbomb seemed to do the job. Tyson walks over and picks up the dazed form of Greg Samuels standing him up, Samuels leans into the turnbuckle using them for support. Tyson pulls Samuels close, picks him up into a gorilla press and holding him up over his head, he begins to do reps with him before tossing him with a crash to the outside of the ring and to the ground below. Tyson smiles, as the crowd looks on in awe at the strength just shown.

Joey Miles:HOLY FUCKEN CHRIST! Did you see the ease with which the BullDawg dropped Samuels to the outside!? That is fucken impressive!

Ted Cedar:I have to admit that is a rather impressive show of strength by the new comer. I think Greg Samuels has been broken into many pieces.


The sweat is seen dripping off the body of Tyson Smith and begins to splatter on the floor making little pools. The Bulldawg bends down picking up Samuel who weakly tries to fire back punches as Tyson walks with Samuel and bangs his head off a railing. Tyson walks over toward the time keeper who scurries faster then a rat being chased by a cat. Tyson picks up his chair and folds it up and walks over to where Greg Samuel is laying, Tyson sets the chair up in the corner between where the railings meet. Tyson goes back over to Samuel, who has had time to recover as Luciano goes to pick him up, he is met by a stiff punch to the jaw that stumbles Smith and sends him back a few paces. Tyson comes back at Samuel only to get met by a kip into a spin kick. Samuel jumps onto the apron and gets a running start before jumping off and wrapping his feet around the neck of Smith before hitting a hurricanranna which delights the crowd and sends the BullDawg rolling on the ground into the railing. Samuel not waiting runs and jumps onto the railing and uses it to hit a moonsault on top of Tyson which again delights the crowd. Samuel picks up the limp and dazed form of Tyson and grabs him before attempting to whip him into the railings, but has it reversed as Tyson ends up sending Samuel hard into the railing causing it to move back a few inches from the impact, Samuel lets out a scream as he feels the pain of the steel. Tyson walks over and stomps on Samuel several times before picking him up and then setting him on the chair that is where the corner of the railings meet. 

Ted Cedar:This can not be good for Greg Samuel, who has put up a fight and taken it to the new comer, there is no quit in him, that’s for sure.

Joey Miles:I am actually taking delight in this match as this Tyson fellow, has been all business. He knows his way around the ring and is proving that Mr. Match of the Night is rusty.

Tyson Smith walks to the far end from where Greg Samuel is sitting he begins to chant Ole`, Ole`, Ole`, Ole` almost in a mocking sense before he begins to run at Samuel before driving a big boot which crushes Samuel's head into the railing with force. The crowd boos as the ref has finally decided to start the count out. Tyson smiles and once again goes to get a running start. Tyson runs again charging at Greg Samuel but instead of connecting Samuel dropped down and Tyson ends up crotching himself on the railing. Tyson  falls to the ground as Samuel has found some support and begins to slowly make his way up to his feet. Both superstars have made it to there feet and both superstars make it into the ring at nine.

Ted Cedar: I see they decided to finally bring it into the ring even though both came close to getting counted out.

Samuel smiles as he is first to his feet, he waits as Tyson stands up he is met with a boot to the stomach, that is followed by Samuel grabbing Tyson locking a inverted face lock before falling backwards onto the mat, the force causing Tyson's head to hit the mat from the DDT. This causes the crowd to cheer, as the second wind kicks in, Samuel kips up to his feet and quickly climbs the turnbuckles before springing off them as he flips his body forward, making contact with his back as he rolls off from the senton. Samuel hooks the leg as he lays across the prone body of Smith. The ref drops to the mat as he begins the count. The hand comes up and slaps the mat once as the fans count, the hand goes up and slaps the mat the second time as again the fans count, the hand goes up and begins to come down, but before it hits for the third time, Tyson just gets his shoulder up, causing the crowd to gasp.

Ted Cedar:Damn that was close! It looked like Samuels might have had it but Tyson found away to kick out.

Joey Miles:Ok, I have had about enough of this damn match, Samuel either needs to just loose or this Tyson fellow needs to get fucken counted out or something, so we can move on to the next match.


Tyson and Samuel are seen both laying on there backs as Samuel had rolled off after not getting the three on Tyson. Neither man is seen moving as there chests are seen moving up and down as they breath in fresh air in order to get to there feet first and put the other one away. Tyson and Samuel continue to lay there as the ref looks down and begins the count to ten. The ref and the crowd count together as at five both wrestlers are seen having made it to there hand and knees, at seven both wrestlers have made it to an almost vertical base, by nine both wrestlers are on there feet, neither man making a move towards the other as both wrestlers continue to try and get there strength and energy back.


Tyson puts a bent at the waist of Samuel, reaches the near hand around and lock his hands around the waist, Tyson then lifts up Samuel into an overhead position as if he is going to slam him but instead falls to the mat almost botching the move as he drives the top of Samuel's head into the canvas with a DDT. Tyson lays across the body of Ziu as the ref comes over to make the count.

Joey Miles:Was that the TRAUMA!? What a freakish move that looks like it finally may put Samuel away and end this match.

The ref drops to the mat and slaps the mat once, raises the hand up and brings it down for a second time as the fans chant “TWO!” The ref's hand goes up into the air and comes down for a third time, thus officially ending the match. The bell rings as the ref stands up and Laura Watts enters the ring microphone in hand.

Laura Watt's:Here is your winner, Tyson BullDawg Smith!!!!!!

Ted Cedar:That was a match that I am sure Samuels wasn't prepared for. He put up a decent fight but in the end the size and strength of Tyson Smith was impossible to overcome.

Joey Miles:It's about time this match is over, now we can get onto something that people will actually care about.

Tyson is slow to his feet as Xander Cage is quick to enter the ring and raise the hand of his superstar as he swats the ref away. The crowd continues to boo as Xander and Tyson exit the ring and head up the rampway toward the back

In opposite corners of the ring stand Greg Samuel and Tyson Smith, both ready to hop into action tonight. For Samuel, this is a return match after a hiatus from the company. In his return, “Mr. Match of the Night” is sporting slight stubble that is very much out of the norm for the usually clean-cut wrestler. His adversary is debutant Tyson Smith, who has a height and weight advantage of 2 inches and 130 pounds. The Arkansas crowd is heavily in favor of Samuel as a “Let’s Go Samuel” chant breaks out before the opening bell. A slight smirk crosses the favored combatants face and he hesitantly sticks a hand out, waving to the crowd. Smith glares across the ring at his opponent and is clearly not impressed with it. The ref rings the bell and everyone is ready to start the match. Samuel approaches the center of the ring, and reaches out a hand, looking to start the match with a sign of respect to Smith. The debuting competitor slowly paces into the center of the ring, but decides to not accept the handshake and instead take Samuel into a side headlock. The crowd does not approve of the lack of respect, and is very vocal. Samuel taps on Smith’s arm a few times, as his face reddens. Greg throws a few punches to the gut of his adversary to loosen the grip around his neck. “The Maine Attraction” sends Smith into the ropes. As “Bulldawg” comes back, Samuel leaps in the air, and his impressive vertical leaping ability is enough to get over a bent over Smith who heads back into the ropes. Samuel turns to face Smith and as his opposition comes back, the Maine resident goes for a shoulder block, but receives the worse end of the deal as Tyson levels him. After a hard hit to the mat, Greg is quickly back to a vertical base. Quickly, the bigger Smith looks to continue the momentum with a clothesline; but his attack misses a ducking Samuel. Smith turns around and the former Intercontinental Champion doesn’t even look behind him to deliver mule kick to the gut, stopping the oncoming “Bulldawg.” Samuel then shows of his athleticism; as does a partial back flip, deliver a pele kick to the forehead of his debuting opposition. Smith hits the mat hard after the powerful kick from the veteran Samuel.

Ted Cedar: “Well that’s some athleticism that we haven’t seen in the past from The Maine Attraction. We used to see him in more of a technical fighting style. Could this be the new style from an anti-authority Samuel?”

Joey Miles: “Anti-Authority, that’s original. What’s next, Samuel 3:16 and Stunners? Fuck that shit.”

Due to a lack of fatigue, Smith is up about as quickly as Samuel. “Mr. Match of the Night” drives a knee into the midriff of Smith, who doubles over. Greg takes his adversary by the back of the head and leads him into the corner. The former Million Dollar Champion slams Smith’s head on the top turnbuckle, disorienting the newcomer. Samuel then irish whips the 350 pound combatant across the ring. Smith arrives in the corner and shortly after is met by Samuel with a high knee to the jaw. Smith’s head snaps back and before long, Samuel wraps his arm around his neck. Using the ropes for leverage, Samuel jumps down to the mat, bringing Smith with him and driving him face first into the mat with a Bulldog. With a certain light heartedness, Samuel yells, “HAVE A BULLDOG, BULLDAWG!” The crowd chuckles at Greg little remark. Smith however isn’t laughing as his jaw and head have been the focus of attack by Samuel. Greg struggles to turn over Smith, but ultimately is able to do it. After all the work to get “Bulldawg” flipped over, Greg tries to go for a pin, but is cut off by an eye gouge from Smith that goes unseen due to the ref being out of position. Samuel topples up and backwards, holding his face. The Arkansas audience saw everything and is not pleased with the actions of the debuting superstar. Smith gets back to a vertical base and makes his way over to Samuel, who is leaned on the ropes. Smith grabs Samuel by both sides of the head and delivers a swift headbutt to his adversary. The power of the headbutt sends Samuel into the corner. Smith stalks his opponent into the corner and begins to throw stiff forearm blows into the chest. With each shot, the returning Samuel lets out a gasp of air. After 5 strikes with the forearm, Samuel comes stumbling out of the corner before dropping to his knees and then his stomach. “Bulldawg” stays on the attack, rolling over the much lighter Samuel and going for a pin. “The Maine Attraction” has much more gas in the tank and is able to kick out at one. Smith transitions into his next attack by grabbing the back of Samuel’s head and then delivering fists down on him. Smith decides that 4 punches to the forehead is enough and lets Samuel’s head drop down to the mat. Smith returns to a vertical base and turns his back to Samuel, taking a moment to boast in front of the Arkansas crowd. There is no appreciation to be found for the big man, and he is met with a chorus of boos. Meanwhile, behind him, the former Intercontinental Champion pulls his legs back into his chest before performing a kip up. With Samuel back vertical, the crowd begins to cheer. Unknowing of the situation going on behind him, Smith believes the cheering is for him and gets a smirk on his face. Samuel then charges toward his adversary. Greg leaps into the air and delivers a double axe handle to the back of Smith, sending him toppling into the ropes. Looking to seize this advantage, Samuel begins wildly throwing fists, trying to wear down the bigger Smith. “Bulldawg” has had enough of the attack and with minimal effort pushes Samuel back 10 feet with one arm. Greg bounces off the mat a couple times before hopping back up and charging toward the debuting wrestler. Smith sees this attack coming on and is able to counter by picking up the 220-pound wrestler and slamming him down neck first on the mat with a powerbomb.

Ted Cedar: “Holy hell what a powerbomb by the big man!”

Joey Miles: “Fuck his shit…”

Samuel is cringing and arching his back after the hard powerbomb. Smith hooks a leg and looks for the victory. Samuel is able to kick out before two. Smith is disappointed and drags Samuel back up to a vertical base. After bringing him up, Smith takes “The Maine Attraction” in a bear hug and then lifts him up and over with a belly-to-belly suplex. Samuel bridges his back in pain after the suplex. Samuel works his way back to his feet, only to be greeted with an elbow to the midriff. Samuel is doubled over and that is not a good position for him to be in. With an arm around his neck, the former Intercontinental Champion is not where he expected to be at this point in the match. Quickly, Smith drives a forearm down on the back of Samuel, sending the anti-authority combatant to a knee. “Bulldawg” viciously pulls Samuel back to his feet. Smith lifts Samuel up, looking to suplex the veteran. Samuel is able to find a way out of the lock and land on his feet. With great speed, Samuel begins delivering boots to the legs of the big man. This only annoys Smith who turns around to face his adversary. “The Maine Attraction” takes a few shuffle steps backwards while turning his body sideways. Greg then moves right back toward his opposition before lifting his foot with lightning speed and connected that foot to the jaw of Tyson Smith with a superkick. Smith slams on the mat hard after the kick. Samuel jumps up and down a few times, slamming his feet on the mat. And on the fourth jump, he jumps as high as he can and then slams his feet on the mat. The Arkansas crowd responds with excitement Smith is groggy as he gets back to his feet and as he does, he is taken into the oh so familiar to the XWA Universe clutch that is fondly known as the “Fatal Attraction” clutch in XWA circles. “The Maine Attraction” lifts his adversary up just a touch before falling backwards, slamming the face of Smith with the Fatal Attraction. The crowd goes wild as Samuel, running on adrenaline, pushes Smith over and hooks a leg. The count hits three and the Arkansas crowd goes wild.

Ted Cedar: “And in his first match, Samuel is victorious!”

Joey Miles: “Fuck that shit…”

Laura Watts: “Here is your winner, “THE MAINE ATTRACTION” GREG SAMUEL!!!!”

Give it Away hits and Samuel gets up to his feet to have his hand raised by the ref. After getting his hand raised, Samuel makes the belt motion around his waist, signaling he is hunting for gold.

Ted Cedar: “Great to see Samuel back!”

Joey Miles: “Bleh…”

(OOC:Pretty trash I think. Working on getting the rust off.)

Note, this match was about 30 seconds later so I let it through. It was posted at 12:06 because we had to unlock the thread and Greg had to post it on his slow ass computer. He was on the chat at 12:01.
