GSR Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 American Dragon is providing guest commentary for this match where he confirms what I thought last week, that he is injured (knee) and doesn’t know how long he’ll be out for. As a result, Shooter Schultz is subbing for him in this MCW Southern tag title defence. Jack overpowers Spanky so he looks to use his speed advantage over the big man. Slingshot headscissors followed by an arm drag and then a Japanese arm drag. Double back drop. Beautiful butterfly suplex by Shooter on Bo. Schultz misses a charge in the corner, and at the same time he goes crashing into the turnbuckle, Jack nails him with a forearm from the apron. Double shoulder tackle for a two. Rear chinlock, and Dragon mentions how the ref should keep a close eye on this because the Dupps have been known to choke during chinlocks and similar holds. Powerslam/big splash combination and Schultz kicks out of the lateral press. Shooter ducks a swinging arm, release German and he’s able to make the tag to Spanky. Bulldog off the middle to Jack. Wheelbarrow roll up and Bo is there in the nick of time for the save. That brings in Shooter and he clotheslines Bo to the outside. Moonsault press by Spanky, but at two Bo pulls referee William Gibson from the ring. Pescado to the floor, although Spanky ends up taking out Gibson as well as Bo. Shooter with an exploder suplex, frog splash by Spanky however there’s no-one to count the pin. He gets the visual three before Jason Sensation and Schultz grab hold of Gibson and throw him in the ring. Near fall as Jack has just had enough time to recover and raises a shoulder. Jack reverses the Irish whip, ‘Brain Scramble’ by the Dupps and they are your new Southern tag team champions. Decent match with a strong closing stretch. I’m starting to see, despite their size, why the Dupps never made it out of developmental (I don’t see anything in Bo) and the Haas brother’s already look much better prospects. Dragon wasn’t bad on commentary, a tad annoying on occasion but that’s it. With him out indefinitely (he attributed the knee injury to the Dupps) a case of getting the belts away from Spanky and he.

soup23 Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Dragon is on commentary and he is trying to find his personality. That is about the biggest development of this. Crowd is dead and lame for this but the work on top by the Dupps doesn’t exactly inspire a rabid reaction either. Spanky looks good enough and Shooter was a nonfactor for most of the match. Shoddy finish including a ref bump. Memphis has the 2000 kliq but other than that, it is struggling mightily right now. *1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
