A shitty angle for Memphis with Alkie Hol the new Commish. and the referee here with a beer can and all. The Rocker is on commentary and he inserts himself into the match after three minutes. Alkie takes the beating to Rocker and then puts Spanky and Dragon on top for the win. Huh. 1/2*

This was mostly them running through a bunch of stuff for a few minutes while the commentary and in-ring angle detracted from the actual work. Dragon threw some nice chops and folded up Spanky with a nice back suplex but not much else noteworthy before the screw finish.

Al K. Holic is somehow now the Commissioner of Memphis Championship Wrestling and is also the guest referee for this bout, which is a number one contender’s match for the Light Heavyweight title. Not only do we have a guest referee, but also a guest commentator in the shape of Fabulous Rocker. Living his gimmick, Al K. is officiating this whilst holding a can of beer! Satellite headscissors by Spanky. Dragon stuns him with a couple of headbutts, however Spanky counters the hip toss with a nice arm drag takedown. Great looking belly to back suplex by Dragon who is pretty measured in his approach here. Powerbomb and folding press for two as old Al K. is a bit slow in getting down to count the pin attempt. Another belly to back, but this time Spanky flips over and catches Dragon with ‘Sliced Bread #2’. Fabulous Rocker then leaves the commentary desk and enters the ring where he nails Spanky and Dragon over the head with a metal sign. Al K. then clocks Rocker with his beer can, puts both Spanky and Dragon on top of him and fast counts a three. He declares them both winners and I have no idea!

 

Al K. as official, Rocker as commentator, that’s all the indication you need to know there was going to be some sort of shenanigans going on here. I wouldn’t say Dragon and Spanky half assed it, but certainly not one of their finer matches due to the booking and finish as they probably realised they didn’t need to go all out. The less said about that ending the better.
