Kelli Burkowski, Heather Cooper, ‘Long Haul’ Rick Hall, and Thunderbolt Smith
MVW… MVW… MVW…
Thunderbolt welcomes everyone to Wrestling Night in the Heartland. Tonight we are in Evansville, Indiana for a great night of wrestling action.
Three matches.
Captain Jack versus Buckshot Henderson. Winner gets the #4 ranking in the Men’s Division. Loser is the #1 contender in the Men’s Heartland Division.
‘The Shadow Warrior’ Shizuko Yamazaki vs. Lisa Barbosa-Stevens in a #2 vs. #3 match in the Women’s Division.
And the big one… MVW hosts a HOTv Tag Team Title match featuring our very own Alabama Gang defending the HOTv Tag Titles against The Final Alliance from HOW.
LAST WEEK’S SHOW Thunderbolt talks about the controversial end to last week’s Hanson Sisters-Jill Berg Enterprises match for the Women’s Tag Team Title where JBE’s Prisoner #034291 was counted out of the ring.
Hall jumps in and says he’ll say it again. This is on Prisoner #034291 and Jill Berg Enterprises. She was out of the ring brawling and did not return to the ring within referee Bailey Jenkins’s ten count.
Thunderbolt adds also last week, Daryn Thompson retained the Women’s Title over Jennifer Colton.
Hall says Colton kept coming, kept reversing out of Thompson’s moves, but the Women’s champion was too much and got the win.
We go right to the ring for our first match.

Referee Ron Martin is ready to go and calls for the bell to start the match.
Thunderbolt cuts in. Time for our first commercial break of the night.
Thunderbolt Smith: Big win for Captain Jack and he remains in the Men’s Division.
HALL’S COMMENTS: -Hall notes things got a little chippy there at times with the low blows. Captain Jack even pulled out the green mist that got into Henderson’s eyes. -Buckshot did what he could but he remains in the Men’s Heartland Division. He will challenge Scott Stevens again next week for the Men’s Heartland title.
Thunderbolt sends it backstage to Kellie Burkowski.
LISA BARBOSA-STEVENS INTERVIEW Kellie has 4-time champion Lisa Barbosa-Stevens with her.
BARBOSA-STEVENS COMMENTS: -She agrees with Kellie that it’s been too long since they’ve talked. Being a part of Jill Berg Enterprises means playing by Jill Berg’s rules and that means she gets to do all the talking. -Lisa says she’s happy to finally get some forward motion again in her career. The win over Yosemite Samantha on Friday night was big for her. She hopes to follow that up with another win over Shizuko Yamazaki tonight. -She gives Yamazaki credit for her in-ring improvement but hopes tonight’s the night Lisa gets back into title contention with a win.

**************************
Thunderbolt Smith: Back from break and we are now going to go to a sold-out Carson Convention Center in Paducah, Kentucky for our main event. Heather Cooper is in the ring and ready to go.
In the ring is Heather Cooper and she’s ready to do the introductions.
Heather Cooper: Ladies and gentlemen. This match will be one fall…
ONE FALL!
Heather Cooper: …and it will be for the HOTv TAG TEAM TITLES!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Heather Cooper: Introducing the challengers…
Both Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr emerge from the back.
Heather Cooper (spoken in the most unenthusiastic voice ever): From Havre, Montana… Jatt Starr.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
The lights do not dim. The ramp does not light up. No spotlights. Nothing.
Heather Cooper: And from Houston, Texas… Dan Ryan.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
And no music, lights, or anything for Dan Ryan either.
Thunderbolt Smith: Well. This is a sight I thought I’d never see. Dan Ryan inside a MVW arena.
Rick Hall: Dan’s coming back from a layoff and he’s already back in form. He defeated Joe Bergman two weeks ago at HOW’s March to Glory for the HOTv title.
Starr walks up the ring steps sporting his black and red checkered suit. The Ruler of Jattlantis demands referee Davey Keels open the ropes for him.
Keels flips him off.
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
The Jattlantic City Idol is forced to climb through the ropes without any outside aid and enters the ring. He takes a knee and outstretches his arms as if he is bathing in the red glow like Andy Dufresne during a rainstorm after escaping Shawshank.
Ryan also makes it to the ring, then stops and looks out into the crowd once again, soaking in the negative reaction with no expression. He dashes into the ropes, bounces off and sprints to a turnbuckle, step-climbing up and then roaring into the crowd and settling into a snarling stare out at the masses.
Heather’s disposition perks up.
Heather Cooper: AND THEIR OPPONENTS…
Pause for a beat.
The lights go dark.
…
…
…
Then…
A techno-styled keyboard bass rhythm starts pumping through the sound system getting the Paducah crowd to start clapping their hands.
Thunderbolt Smith: Well, this is a little different.
Next- sampled vocals from the chorus of M’s classic “Pop Muzik” and a light show begins.
Rick Hall: This is a LOT different.
Next- a “divebombing-jet” guitar sound… an eerie-whine that comes in and tails off.
Thunderbolt Smith: This sounds familiar.
Another divebombing guitar sound follows with a sampled snippet of M singing “Pop pop pop pop pop pop pop muzik’
Full stop. And then…
“Lookin’ for to save my, save my soul…”
…the music kicks back in following Bono singing the opening lyrics of the U2 song “Mofo”.
The 3,000 fans inside the Carson Convention Center go berserk as a spotlight shines on Ray McAvay who’s wearing a cowboy hat tonight while marching out from the back.
Rick Hall: It should. The Alabama Gang are recreating the opening from U2’s 1997-1998 Pop Mart tour.
Walking with him to his left is Charlie Blackwell- the owner of Texas Championship Wrestling… also wearing a cowboy hat.
On the right is the diminutive ‘Corporate Predator and CEO of Jill Berg Enterprises,’ the phenomenon known as… Jill Berg- the owner of Appalachian Mountain Championship Wrestling.
“Lookin’ in the places where no flowers grow…”
Behind McAvay is Sunny O’Callahan. She holds up a full bottle of Southern Comfort as she marches toward the ring.
“Lookin’ for to fill that God-shaped hole…”
Behind O’Callahan- R.G. Jenkins. He’s holding up one of the HOTv Tag Team title belts.
“Mother, mother-suckin’ rock ‘n roll… (Mother)”
And bringing up the rear? Mark Hendry. He’s wearing a boxer-type robe with the hood up over his head and the other HOTv Tag Title around his waist.
Hendry shadow boxes at the end of the procession while it makes its way down the aisles, zig-zagging towards the ring with wrestlers from MVW, TCW, and AMCW lined up on both sides, escorting the Alabama Gang to the ring in the manner of a grand entrance for a big-time prize fight.
“Holy dunc, space junk comin’ in for the splash… (been around the front, been around the back)”
Rick Hall: The PopMart tour consisted of four legs and 93 shows and took the band to stadiums worldwide from April 1997 to March 1998.
“White dopes on punk staring into the flash… (been around the front, been around the back)”
Thunderbolt Smith: Ah. You learn something new every day.
“Lookin’ for the baby Jesus under the trash… (been around the front, been around the back)”
The procession makes their final approach to ringside.
“Mother, mother-suckin’ rock ‘n roll… (Mother)”
Thunderbolt Smith: Ray McAvay’s pulling out all the stops here tonight.
“Mother, mother-suckin’ rock ‘n ROLL!… (Mother)”
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, this seem to be a call back to when HOW’s Lee Best refused to allow The Highwaymen… a group that included Joe Bergman… to come out to their regular entrances and took away their music.
Thunderbolt Smith: Really? Lee would be that petty?
Jenkins and Hendry roll into the ring.
Heather Cooper (voice much more animated and excited): LAYYYYY-DEES AND GENTLEMEN. HAILING FROM THE GREAT TOWNS OF MONROEVILLE AND ENTERPRISE, ALABAMA! WEIGHING IN TONIGHT AT A COMBINED WEIGHT OF 472 POUNDS…
Jenkins goes for the nearest turnbuckle. Hendry shadowboxes in the center of the ring.
Heather Cooper: …AND ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY SUNNY O’CALLAHAN…
Sunny takes a swig from a bottle of Southern Comfort and sways on stage. She’s dressed in the fashion of a female background singer from a late seventies Southern rock band wearing a spaghetti strap top, a pair of jeans, heels. and her hair is all frizzed out and curly.
Heather Cooper (nearly shouting): THEY ARE THE HOTv TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… R.G. JENKINS… MARK HENDRY… THE! ALABAMA! GANG!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: As MVW referee Davey Keels does the pre-match check on both teams, Rick, your thoughts on this HOTv Tag Team Title match?
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, I think the Alabama Gang have got a tough road to travel here tonight. There’s no doubt that Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr are definitely a huge step up in competition from what they are used to. However, we have a packed house tonight in Paducah, Kentucky and three thousand people who are solidly behind R.G. Jenkins and Mark Hendry. As we all know, once that bell rings… anything can happen.
Thunderbolt Smith: Thanks Rick. It looks like it will be R.G. Jenkins starting out the match for the champions and Jatt Starr for the challengers.
*DING-DING*
Thunderbolt Smith: There’s the bell and this match is under- HERE WE GO! THEY’RE NOT WAITING!
Jatt AND Dan sprint across the ring from one side- Jenkins and Hendry rush forward from the opposite side.
Thunderbolt Smith: ALL FOUR MEN IN THE RING AND THEY ARE GOING AT IT!
Jenkins drops down and drives his shoulder into Jatt’s belly towards the corner turnbuckle. Ryan and Hendry exchange heavy right hand bombs and no one is giving any ground.
Rick Hall: DAN RYAN AND MARK HENDRY SLUG IT OUT ON ONE SIDE. R.G. JENKINS AND JATT STARR ARE FIGHTING ON THE OTHER.
Thunderbolt Smith: WE WILL BACK WITH MORE OF THIS MATCH AFTER THIS.

**************************
Thunderbolt Smith: We are back and Hendry drives lefts and rights into Ryan who tries to tie him up. Ryan knees Hendry in the gut! Now he slams him hard into the corner turnbuckle!
Hendry staggers and grabs the top rope.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jenkins and Starr are on the deck. They’re rolling around… throwing punches… rolling around…
Rick Hall: I wondered how both teams were going to approach this match. As soon as the bell sounded both teams rushed to the center and let fly.
Thunderbolt Smith: Dan Ryan has Mark Hendry down in the corner and he stomps away at him… one… two… three… four… five… six… seven.
Jenkins has both hands around the throat of the Rembrandt of Wrestling and is trying to throttle him.
Thunderbolt Smith: JENKINS IS CHOKING OUT JATT STARR… DAVEY KEELS STARTS A FIVE COUNT!
ONE!
Ryan runs in and drives a knee to Hendry’s face.
TWO!
Jatt pokes Jenkins in the eyes and tries to get away from him.
THREE!
Rick Hall: The Final Alliance better heed the referee. He won’t hesitate to count either team out-
Thunderbolt Smith: Both teams need to heed referee Davey Keels.
Ryan backs away – hands in the air – back to his corner.
Thunderbolt Smith: And if Dan Ryan heard us talking, he breaks it off and climbs out of the ring.
Rick Hall: Hendry rolls under the ropes and he’s going to try and regroup.
Thunderbolt Smith: And that leaves R.G. Jenkins and Jatt Starr. They will start the match.
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
R.G. Jenkins takes a couple steps forward. Jatt Starr stays in his corner. The crowd is roaring.
FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP) FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP)
Wry smile from R.G.
FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP) FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP)
R.G. takes one step forward.
Thunderbolt Smith: R.G. is ready.
Jatt turns around and steps through the ropes to the apron.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Thunderbolt Smith: But Jatt Starr is not.
Starr decides to get one last piece of advice from Ryan so while he confers with Dan Ryan, R.G. stews in his corner. This goes on for a few seconds before Jatt turns back to Jenkins and tentatively steps through the ropes to return.
FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP) FUCK ‘EM UP R.G., FUCK ‘EM UP! (CLAP-CLAP)
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt Starr back in. Jenkins hits the ropes and he’s coming forward…
Starr sticks his body through the ropes.
Thunderbolt Smith: …and Jatt steps out again. Referee Davey Keels has no choice but to step in.
Rick Hall: But Keels starts a five count.
Thunderbolt Smith: One… two… three… four…
The Duke of Jattmandu reluctantly steps on foot back into the ring.
Thunderbolt Smith: Starr demands Keels back Jenkins up to the opposite corner so he can get back in.
Keels does and Starr returns.
R.G.’S GONNA KILL YOU R.G’S GONNA KILL YOU
Ryan shakes his head derisively towards at the crowd. He’s less than impressed.
Thunderbolt Smith: Looks like this time is for real. They circle. Lock up in the middle- KNEE TO THE GROIN BY JATT STARR!
Jenkins is bent over.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt takes Jenkins over to his corner and tags in Dan Ryan.
Ryan steps in and starts opening with rights
Thunderbolt Smith: BIG punches by Dan Ryan. Keels behind him and admonishes Ryan for the closed fist.
Rick Hall: That’s not going to stop him.
Keels counts…
ONE…
TWO…
THERE…
Ryan lets go.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan steps back as Davey Keels tells him to break when he says to break. Will Dan Ryan listen?
Ryan starts wailing away on Jenkins again with a closed fist.
Rick Hall: No.
Keels starts another five count…
ONE…
TWO…
THREE…
FOUR…
FI- Ryan steps away at the last possible moment. He goes over and gets in Keels’s face.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Thunderbolt Smith: JATT STARR’S CHOKING R.G. JENKINS IN THE CORNER.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Rick Hall: While Dan Ryan has referee Davey Keels distracted, Jatt Starr is trying to choke the life out of R.G. Jenkins. Hendry’s going nuts in the corner.
Hendry starts to climb over the ropes. Ryan alerts Keels.
Thunderbolt Smith: Now Keels is talking with Hendry while Ryan and Starr double up on Jenkins.
Hendry is furious and tries to get past Keels.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan pounds right hands into Jenkins’s midsection while Jatt Starr continues to choke him out.
Keels basically tells Hendry to get out of the ring.
Rick Hall: Mark’s got to keep his cool here.
Hendry steps through the ropes back to the apron and then gets an earful from Sunny O’Callahan who tells him to ‘think.’
Keels turns back around.
Thunderbolt Smith: Keels sees Dan Ryan working R.G. Jenkins over in the corner.
Rick Hall: Jatt was smart enough to step back before Keels saw what he was doing.
Ryan bends down and rams his shoulder into Jenkins.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan with a shoulder… and again… and again.
Jenkins grabs on to the top rope to keep him on his feet.
Thunderbolt Smith: Dan Ryan steps back. He runs in. BOOM. Running clothesline!
This time, Jenkins’s legs give out and he falls to the mat.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan covers…
ONE…
TWO…
Thunderbolt Smith: Jenkins gets the shoulder up.
*SMACK*
Thunderbolt Smith: And Jatt Starr tags back in.
Rick Hall: R.G. Jenkins is in the wrong part of town. He’s got to get out of that corner and soon.
Thunderbolt Smith: Oooh. Knee to the groin by Starr and that doubles R.G. over. Starr takes him by the head and brings him out.
Jatt lifts Jenkins up and brings him down on his bent knee.
Thunderbolt Smith: MANJATTAN DROP!
Jenkins topples over.
Thunderbolt Smith: Starr for the win.
ONE…
TWO…
Thunderbolt Smith: NO! Jenkins just gets a shoulder off the mat. He reaches around Jenkins…
Starr lifts Jenkins up and over.
Thunderbolt Smith: JATTLANTIAN SUPLEX!
Rick Hall: R.G.’s trying to crawl to his corner but Jatt takes him by the leg and brings him over to Dan Ryan.
Jatt tags Ryan back in.
Thunderbolt Smith: Now Dan Ryan with the elbow drop. He hits another one.
Rick Hall: Hendry’s screaming at R.G. to make the tag.
Thunderbolt Smith: And a third. Now he takes an armbar.
Ryan’s on a knee with Jenkins’s right arm trapped.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan pulls on that arm.
Jenkins thrashes back and forth trying to relieve the pressure.
Rick Hall: Starr and Ryan are going to isolate R.G. Jenkins as long as they can-
Thunderbolt Smith: Hendry in the ring!
Keels immediately intercepts him and tells him to get out.
Thunderbolt Smith: Keels is right there telling Hendry he must leave.
Rick Hall: And that leaves Jenkins completely helpless to fight back against two men.
Thunderbolt Smith: Starr in the ring… double team Irish Whip to the ropes… BIG BOOT BY DAN RYAN!
Jenkins pirouettes and falls to the mat.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan covers… but Keels is still talking to Mark Hendry.
The Sultan of SeaJattle tries to get Keels’s attention.
Thunderbolt Smith: Keels sees the pinfall.
ONE…
TWO…
Thunderbolt Smith: Shoulder up again by Jenkins.
Rick Hall: Hendry arguing with Keels may have saved Jenkins on that one. That was a nasty boot to the face by Dan Ryan.
Thunderbolt Smith: We have to take a commercial break right here. We’ll be back right after this.
Hendry turns to the fans and urges them to get behind The Alabama Gang.
Thunderbolt Smith: We are back and Jenkins is still in a lot of trouble here as Ryan drags him back to his corner and Jatt Starr tags back in.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Ryan dismisses the fans.
Rick Hall: This is what I was afraid of. Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr wrestle at the very top of the pro wrestling pyramid. They are used to heavy duty, high pressure matches like this and it’s no accident they are completely dismantling R.G. Jenkins right now.
Thunderbolt Smith: STARRABIAN LEG-SWEEP AND DOWN GOES JENKINS AGAIN.
Rick Hall: Jenkins has taken a lot of punishment. He has got to tag out.
Hendry stretches his arm out as far as he can go.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt rolls him over.
ONE…
TWO…
Thunderbolt Smith: AGAIN. R.G. Jenkins manages to get a shoulder up.
R.G. tries to sit up and move toward his corner.
Rick Hall: Jenkins won’t go down without a fight. But he’s GOT to tag Hendry in.
Now supremely confident, Jatt takes his time in going back over to Jenkins.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt Starr in complete control here. He’s just measuring Jenkins as he gets back to his feet.
Jenkins does get back to a vertical base.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt goes low!
Jenkins bends over and falls back a couple steps.
Thunderbolt Smith: Somehow, R.G. Jenkins is still standing.
Rick Hall: Not for long, here he comes.
The Thane of Starrkarth runs forward and drives into the air with his legs.
Thunderbolt Smith: STARRLITE EXPRESS-NO HE MISSED!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: OH MY! JATT WENT FOR THE STARRLITE EXPRESS… MISSED AND HIT THE CORNER RINGPOST!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Rick Hall: First off, after all the punishment he’s taken in this match, how did R.G. Jenkins have the presence of mind to get out of the way. Second, Jatt’s in a neutral corner away from Dan Ryan as well. Can Jenkins get to Mark Hendry and tag out?
Thunderbolt Smith: The crowd is URGING R.G. Jenkins on!
Jenkins crawls on hands and knees toward Hendry.
Thunderbolt Smith: Can he make it to his cornerrrrrrrrr…
Jenkins with one final dive… *SLAP*
Thunderbolt Smith: YES!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: IT’S MARK HENDRY’S TURN. Mark goes over and pulls Starr up. Whips to the ropes… BACK BODY DROP!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: Again… Starr’s sent to the ropes… ANOTHER BACK BODY DROP!
Rick Hall: Mark Hendry’s on fire!
Thunderbolt Smith: Here comes Dan Ryan! Hendry… SPEAR!
Ryan gets driven back to the ropes.
Thunderbolt Smith: HERE COMES HENDRY… CLOTHESLINE AND DAN RYAN GOES OVER THE TOP ROPE!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Rick Hall: Dan Ryan hit the floor hard.
Thunderbolt Smith: Hendry sends Starr to the ropes again… back body-NO! Starr with a kick… BUT HENDRY CATCHES THE BOOT. HE SPINS STARR AROUND… ATOMIC DROP!
Starr lurches forward and finds himself in the wrong corner.
*SLAP*
Thunderbolt Smith: SUNNY O’CALLAHAN JUST SLAPPED JATT STARR IN THE FACE!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Jatt staggers back to Hendry.
Thunderbolt Smith: HENDRY… SPINEBUSTER!
Rick Hall: HENDRY JUST SLAMMED JATT STARR HARD TO THE MAT.
Thunderbolt Smith: COVER!
ONE…
TWO…
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Keels holds up two fingers.
Thunderbolt Smith: JATT KICKED OUT AT TWO!
Rick Hall: Close. Real close.
Thunderbolt Smith: Hendry going top of the turnbuckle now. He leaps…. SENTON SPLASH!
Hendry rolls over to hook the leg as Keels slides in.
ONE…
TWO..
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: JATT KICKED OUT AGAIN!
Rick Hall: R.G. Jenkins is back in the corner and he’s calling for Hendry to tag him in.
Hendry looks at the crowd… then at Jenkins.
Rick Hall: The fans are shouting for Hendry to tag Jenkins back in.
Thunderbolt Smith: Will he do it?
Hendry walks over to his corner and tags Jenkins in.
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: JENKINS BACK IN.
Rick Hall: Dan Ryan’s climbing back onto the apron.
Thunderbolt Smith: Hendry races around the ring! He pulls Ryan down.
Both Hendry and Ryan start throwing hands again.
Thunderbolt Smith: Hendry and Ryan are brawling at ringside!
Ryan grabs Hendry by the throat. Hendry swats his arm away and pops him with right hands. Ryan fires back with rights of his own.
Rick Hall: They’re just loading bombs back and forth on the floor.
Starr lets out a yell.
Thunderbolt Smith: COBRA CLAW!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: JENKINS HAS THE COBRA CLAW ON JATT STARR!
The crowd jumps to their feet as Jenkins digs his fingers into Starr’s shoulder.
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, the Cobra Claw is similar to a claw hold. It’s a nerve lock onto the opponent’s shoulder using his hands and fingers and when done right, it inflicts a lot of pain on the victim.
Thunderbolt Smith: R.G. Jenkins has the know-how to do it!
Rick Hall: He’s digging and putting as much pressure as he can on that shoulder.
Starr’s on his knees and must prop himself up with his opposite arm.
Thunderbolt Smith: Starr’s fading.
Jatt calls out for help.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt’s trying to get Dan Ryan’s attention but Dan doesn’t hear him.
Rick Hall: Ryan’s in the middle of a hoss battle with Hendry right now on the outside.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jenkins presses down even harder on Starr.
Starr screams out in anguish.
Davey Keels bends down and asks Jatt if he quits. Jatt shakes his head no.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt doesn’t quit and he calls out for Dan Ryan again.
Rick Hall: Dan’s a little busy at the moment.
Ryan gets the upper hand on the outside. He flings Hendry into the ring post. Ryan sets and starts to rush at Hendry…
Thunderbolt Smith: Davey Keels again asks Jatt if he quits.
Jatt Starr: NOOOO!
…but stops and turns.
Rick Hall: Starr is almost completely down to the mat.
Ryan immediately climbs up onto the apron. But Hendry grabs onto him and won’t let him go.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan’s trying to get into the ring.
Rick Hall: Hendry’s got a hold on him and he’s trying to stop Ryan.
Starr is on the mat and his shoulders lie flat.
ONE…
TW- Jatt immediately gets a shoulder up.
Thunderbolt Smith: Quick two count there as Jatt’s shoulders were flat on the mat.
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, Jatt’s in big trouble. Dan Ryan can’t get away from Mark Hendry to make the save and Jenkins is sapping what energy Jatt has left with that Cobra Claw.
Sunny O’Callahan jumps on Ryan’s back.
Thunderbolt Smith: Now Sunny O’Callahan is trying to help keep Dan Ryan out of the ring.
Rick Hall: I don’t think that’s a good idea.
Jatt’s shoulders again lie flat on the mat.
ONE…
TWO…
Thunderbolt Smith: Another quick two count.
Rick Hall: Jatt’s wearing down. I don’t know how much more he can take-
Thunderbolt Smith: RYAN’S LOOSE!
After turning and kneeing Hendry in the groin., Ryan backs hard into the ring post and scrapes Sunny off.
Thunderbolt Smith: HERE HE COMES!
Ryan up to the apron and starting to climb into the ring.
Jenkins sees Ryan coming and immediately hooks rolls Starr up.
ONE…
TWO…
…
…
…
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Thunderbolt Smith: NO!
Jenkins now lying flat on his back.
Thunderbolt Smith: RYAN BROKE IT UP!
Ryan stands over Jenkins while The Jattlantic City Idol rolls onto his side.
Thunderbolt Smith: WOW!
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, Dan Ryan got away from Mark Hendry and, just as Davey Keels was bringing his hand down for the three count, booted Jenkins in the head and broke it up.
Thunderbolt Smith: And Jenkins isn’t moving right now.
Rick Hall: Now Hendry’s on the apron!
Ryan bolts forward and forearms Hendry off the apron.
Thunderbolt Smith: RYAN SENDS HENDRY FLYING INTO THE STEEL BARRICADE! HE’S DOWN TOO.
Rick Hall: Hendry’s left in a crumpled heap by the barricade and Sunny O’Callahan is just starting to come around on the floor.
Thunderbolt Smith: Keels starts a five count on Dan Ryan in the ring.
Rick Hall: I think Dan Ryan may have knocked R.G. Jenkins out.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan gets out of the ring at four and he immediately walks around to his corner and screams at Jatt to tag him in.
Jatt hears him and begins to head in that direction.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt’s trying to crawl over…
The Grand Overlord of Jatturn uses his one good arm to move him toward the corner. Ryan continues to yell at him.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jatt’s almost there…
*SLAP*
Thunderbolt Smith: HE MADE THE TAG!
Ryan over the ropes and goes right over to Jenkins.
Rick Hall: He could probably just pin him.
Thunderbolt Smith: He is.
ONE…
TWO…
…
…
…
Thunderbolt Smith: RYAN PULLED HIM UP!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Thunderbolt Smith: He would have had a three count. Why is Dan Ryan thinking by doing that?
Rick Hall: Dan Ryan had this match won. I have no idea why he pulled Jenkins up at the last second!
Thunderbolt Smith: He drags Jenkins up into the… TORTURE RACK- HEADLINER!
Rick Hall: The exclamation point by Dan Ryan and that should do it.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
This time, Ryan hooks the legs and Keels is right there.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!
*DING-DING-DING*
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Thunderbolt Smith: THAT’S IT! NEW CHAMPIONS! NEW CHAMPIONS!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Jatt climbs back into the ring and stumbles over to Ryan as Heather Cooper makes it all official.
Heather Cooper: Your winners at twenty-five minutes and fifty-one seconds… AND THE *NEW* HOTv TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… DAN RYAN… JATT STARR… THE FINAL ALLIANCE!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Keels presents Ryan and Starr with the tag belts.
Rick Hall: We said this was going to be a tough one for Jenkins and Hendry and it was. Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr are world-class wrestlers and in the most unfriendly of atmospheres, they overcame it to win the HOTv Tag Team title here tonight-
Thunderbolt Smith: Here comes the MVW locker room!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Lots of pointing, shouting, swearing, and other extracurricular things as the MVW, TCW, and AMCW wrestlers have the ring surrounded.
Thunderbolt Smith: Ryan and Starr may have a problem getting out of here.
Rick Hall: The ring’s surrounded. The new champions may have to fight their way to the back.
But before anything can happen…
Ray McAvay: Nope.
Ray McAvay, Charlie Blackwell, and Jill Berg wade through and jump up onto the apron. The three look down at the wrestlers gathered on the floor.
Ray McAvay: We’re not going to do this.
He turns to Ryan and Starr.
Ray McAvay: Gentlemen, you’re lucky. If I were TRULY the Evil Empire like Lee Best keeps going on about… or if I was actually Lee Best himself, you two wouldn’t be walking out of here tonight.
No reaction from the new HOTv Tag Team Champions.
Ray McAvay: But that’s not how I operate.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Ray McAvay: We’re not going to stoop to that level.
He turns back to the new champions.
Ray McAvay: I’m going to keep my promise because we do pro wrestling here and we don’t do sports entertainment bullshit. You won…
McAvay claps his hands.
Ray McAvay: …congratulations. You were the better wrestlers tonight. Not better sports entertainers… but better wrestlers.
He gestures to the MVW Security who have also come down to the ring.
Ray McAvay: Now escort the new HOTv Tag Team Champions out of the building and make sure NO ONE lays a hand on them.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Both smirking… both holding up the HOTv Tag Team Title belts in the faces of the three thousand fans who are not happy that The Alabama Gang lost, Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr exit the ring and much in the way R.G. Jenkins and Mark Hendry were brought down to the ring, Ryan and Starr are led back up the ramp in a grand procession with MVW’s Security force flanking them on both sides.
Thunderbolt Smith: All right. That’s all from here. It took over twenty-five minutes but we do have NEW HOTv Tag Team Champions and they are Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr of HOW’s Final Alliance.
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, great match. The Alabama Gang gave it their all. They have nothing… NOTHING… to be ashamed of here. I know from what both R.G. and Mark said beforehand that they weren’t interested in ‘moral victories’ or ‘looking good in a loss.’ But the fact is these two took on two of the best wrestlers in not only in High Octane Wrestling but in pro wrestling and they came very close to winning this match.
Thunderbolt Smith: Shall we talk about next week. Two more title matches and a #1 contender’s match.
Rick Hall: Next week. Men’s Champion ‘Redneck’ Bill Dickinson defends his title again against the #1 contender Bracken Krueger. Their first match was a hard-hitting, no quarter given affair. I can’t imagine we’ll see anything different in the rematch. The Alabama Gang will be back to defend the Men’s Tag Team title against Surf Express Bro. This will be the SEB’s first MVW title opportunity and we will see how R.G. and Mark bounce back from a disappointing loss. Then we will have the rematch between Jennifer Colton and ‘The Shadow Warrior’ Shizuko Yamazaki who met three weeks ago in a #1 contender’s match that Colton won. The winner here will get another shot at Women’s Champion Daryn Thompson.
Thunderbolt Smith: That’s going to do it from Paducah, Kentucky. We will see you again next Tuesday night in Des Moines, Iowa for another edition of MVW’s Wrestling Night in the Heartland. See you then.
The final show of the weekend saw MVW head south across the Ohio River down into Kentucky for an eight-match program and it was a doozy.
First, the show featured matches in the Women’s Tag Team, Men’s, and Women’s Non-Division to determine who will have a chance to earn promotion to the Women’s Tag Team Division, Men’s and Heartland Divisions. Then a big #1 contender’s match between Buckshot Henderson and Luke Woods for a shot at Men’s Heartland Champion Scott Stevens. LATX and The Working Girls battle it out in a #2 vs. #3 match in the Women’s Tag Team Division.
But the big… BIG… match of the night was the HOTv Tag Team title showdown between MVW’s The Alabama Gang (the champions) and High Octane Wrestling’s Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr aka The Final Alliance.

Dickinson ducks and hits a right hand off his own. Press slam drives O’Reilly to the mat and he is in trouble. Here it comes – SOUTHERN FRIED POWERBOMB! Cover… 1… 2… THREE!
WINNER: ‘Redneck’ Bill Dickinson
Kellie interviews Bill Dickinson. -Dickinson says he was a little surprised at how strong Bracken Krueger was. He’s ready for Krueger this time and he will not take him lightly. He knows what Krueger can do and he will rise up to the challenge. But Bill says that you can check the record books, he’s never backed down from a challenge and he will stop at nothing to make sure he remains the Men’s champion.
The full results from last night’s Chicago, Illinois house show and television taping.
March 21st – Joseph Gentile Center / Chicago, IL
#2 vs. #3-WOMEN’S TAG TEAM DIVISION: #2 The Rose Warriors (Geena the Warrior Princess/Eliza Rose) vs. #3 LATX (Racquel Ramirez/Christina Garcia) -LATX picks up their latest ‘biggest’ victory in MVW with a big time effort and win over the Rose Warriors. Ramirez and Garcia move up to #2 in the rankings. The Rose Warriors fall to #3.
#2 vs. #3-WOMEN’S DIVISION: #2 Shizuko Yamazaki vs. #3 Yosemite Samantha -Yosemite Samantha got off to a slow start in this one. But she roared back late and nearly won but Yamazaki’s Floatover DDT ended it. Yamazaki stays at #2; Yosemite Samantha at #3.
NOTE: This was his third title defense. Stevens can now opt to take the next promotion/relegation match to move into the Men’s Division instead of #1 contender Buckshot Hendeson.
#1 CONTENDER’S MATCH-MEN’S TAG TEAM: #1 The Stevens Dynasty (Bo and George Stevens) vs, #2 Surf Express Bro (Bowie Abrams/Bradlee Nelson) -The Kardoucheian Empire continue to play their games against Surf Express Bro and this time it cost The Stevens Dynasty. Abrams had the Cross Armbreaker applied to Bo Stevens. The Kardoucheians invaded the ring to attack the S.E.B. and in the process got the Stevens Dynasty disqualified.
Post match, The Stevens Dynasty attacked The Kardoucheians and a full-scale brawl broke out.
#1 CONTENDER’S MATCH-MEN’S DIVISION: #1 Bracken Krueger vs. #2 Ricky Stevens -Krueger gets a tussle from Ricky Stevens but makes it through to set up a rematch against ‘Redneck’ Bill Dickinson in two weeks for the Men’s Title.
The Kardoucheians flee the arena before either Cary Stevens or Ray McAvay can get their hands on them which means The Alabama Gang need an opponent for their match.
NON-TITLE: Men’s Tag Team Champions The Alabama Gang (R.G. Jenkins/Mark Hendry) vs. The Kings of the Wild Frontier (Boone Daniels/Crockett Davies) -Sub in- The Kings of the Wild Frontier. The champions win in what amounts to be a glorified workout for Jenkins and Hendry… BUT… also a valuable one for Daniels and Davies.
NON-TITLE: Men’s Champion ‘Redneck’ Bill Dickinson vs. John O’Reilly -Dickinson gets the win in an entertaining match.
Last Week’s Wrestling Night in the Heartland Results: -Kellie Burkowski interviews ‘Redneck’ Bill Dickinson about his match with Bracken Krueger last week. Dickinson calls Krueger a ‘tough son of a bitch.’ -MATCH #1 The Working Girls (C.J. Lewis/Leah Iris defeat Laney Harrison/McLean Oswald to retain their #5 ranking and spot in the Women’s Tag Team Division -MVW Owner Ray McAvay announces that Harrison and Oswald have formally signed their first pro contract with MVW. -Kellie updates the goings on in the Heartland Divisions. -Kellie then interviews Cary Stevens. He’s still really upset about the count-out that gave the Stevens Dynasty the win over The Alabama Gang but not the Men’s Tag Team Title. -MATCH #2 Lisa Barbosa-Stevens defeated Victoria McGill via DQ to remain in the Women’s Division. Jill Berg Enterprises attacked Barbosa-Stevens resulting in the DQ. -Ray McAvay comes back out and he bans Jill Berg Enterprises from being at ringside for next week’s Women’s Title match and Women’s Heartland Title match. -Kellie interviews Jennifer Colton. Colton says it’s time someone stood up to JBE. -MATCH #3 Ricky Stevens defeated John O’Reilly to move up to #2 in the Men’s contender’s rankings. -CEO Jill Berg (Jill Berg Enterprises) says JBE being banned from ringside is unfair and she intends to talk to Ray McAvay about it. -MAIN EVENT/NON-TITLE: Men’s Tag Team Champions The Alabama Gang (R.G. Jenkins/Mark Hendry) defeated Kenny Cannon/Ross McClure -Kellie interviews the Alabama Gang in the ring afterward. The count-out loss to the Stevens Dynasty last week is a black mark they intend to erase. Then they discuss their upcoming HOTv Tag title defense against Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr of High Octane Wrestling.
Cue the pyro
Missouri Valley Wrestling Wrestling Night in the Heartland Tuesday March 21st, 2023 Joseph Gentile Center Chicago, IL
Announcers: Thunderbolt Smith and ‘Long Haul’ Rick Hall Backstage Interviewer: Kellie Burkowski Ring Announcer: Heather Cooper
Kelli Burkowski, Heather Cooper, ‘Long Haul’ Rick Hall, and Thunderbolt Smith
It’s a hot crowd tonight inside the Joseph Gentile Center as Thunderbolt welcomes everyone to Wrestling Night in the Heartland LIVE in Chicago, Illinois!
MVW… MVW… MVW…
Thunderbolt announces two title matches tonight:
-Daryn Thompson representing Jill Berg Enterprises defends the Women’s Title against fast-rising Jennifer Colton in our main event.
-And The Hanson Sisters defend the Women’s Tag Team title tonight against Jill Berg Enterprises.
Also, we also have a big number one contender’s match between The Stevens Dynasty and Surf Express Bro tonight and we go right to the ring where ring announcer Heather Cooper awaits.
MATCH #1 #1 CONTENDER’S MATCH-MEN’S DIVISION: #1 The Stevens Dynasty (Bo and George Stevens) vs. #2 Surf Express Bro (Bowie Abrams and Bradlee Nelson)
Poison’s “Nothin’ Like a Good Time” comes on over the PA.
Bowie Abrams walks out from the back onto the stage… but no Bradlee Nelson… who usually comes out with him.
Heather Cooper begins the introductions…
Surf Express Bro -Young, good-looking, fun-loving stoner/party boys Bradlee Nelson AGE: 21 / HT: 5’ 10” WT: 217 / HOME: Pocatello, ID ALIGN: Face / STYLE: High Flyer / FIN: Fire it Up (Missile Dropkick) Bowie Abrams AGE: 21 / HT: 6’ 2” WT: 210 / HOME: Pocatello, ID ALIGN: Face / STYLE: High Flyer / FIN: Contact High (Frog Splash)
There is no pose from Abrams tonight as he has no idea what happened to Bradlee Nelson.
That is until the video screen comes on and…
BACKSTAGE The Kardoucheian Empires Ken, Koley, and Kourtney Kardoucheian stomp away at Nelson on the floor. Family patriarch Kris Kardoucheian watches and approves of the backstage beatdown.
Kris bends down over Bradlee Nelson.
Kris Kardoucheian: Next time, you’ll do the right thing and put my sons over!
Kardoucheian then adds a stomp to the chest of his own to add insult to injury.
Abrams turns and sees the attack on the video screen. Enraged, he’s about to turn around and go back but…
“STEVENS DYNASTY” appears next on the video screen with a Texas flag waving in the background.
“My Name is Bocephus”- Hank Williams Jr. comes on over the public address system.
Bo and George Stevens come out on stage accompanied by the patriarch of the Stevens Dynasty, Cary Stevens and ‘The Demi-God of HOW’ Scott Stevens.
The four look out at the crowd.
Then Cary leads the team down the ramp towards ringside.
Heather introduces them.
Bo Stevens AGE: 26 HT: 6’ 1” WT: 234 / HOME: Waco, TX ALIGN: / STYLE / FIN: Rolling Cutter George Stevens AGE: 41 / HT: 6’ 5” WT: 445 / HOME: Texarkana, TX ALIGN: / STYLE: Power / FIN: Texas Sized Slam WITH: Cary Stevens and
Scott Stevens
‘Long Haul’ Rick Hall previews the match.
HALL’S PREVIEW: -Four weeks ago, The Stevens Dynasty defeated Surf Express Bro in a very competitive match but then won a controversial count-out win over tag team champions The Alabama Gang but DIDN’T win the title. -The Stevens Dynasty want to get their hands on The Alabama Gang and get the tag belts back… badly. -The Kardoucheians have been angry with Surf Express Bro the last couple of weeks because they… and Hall quotes… “refused to put them over.” -Bowie Abrams may have to go this alone tonight.
Ron Martin will be the referee and this match is underway.
Thunderbolt Smith: Bowie Abrams is doing everything he can but he’s outnumbered.
Rick Hall: The Stevens Dynasty are wearing him down. The Kardoucheians assault on Nelson has left Abrams alone to face down Bo and George Stevens and that may be too much of a hurdle to overcome.
Thunderbolt Smith: All right. The action continues but we must take a commercial break. We’ll be back right after this.

**************************
Thunderbolt Smith: All right. Let’s go right to the ring and Heather Cooper.
Cut to Heather in the ring.
Heather Cooper: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! Ron Martin has stopped the match at seventeen minutes and twenty-two seconds. The winners via disqualification… BOWIE-
What’s just happened has finally hit Cary Stevens. He rolls into the ring…
Thunderbolt Smith: CARY STEVENS JUST DECKED KRIS KARDOUCHEIAN!
Taking Cary’s cue, Scott Stevens and George Stevens rushes in and it’s now a full-out brawl.
MVW Security comes running down as it’s Scott, Bo, and George Stevens engaged with Ken, Koley, and Kourtney Kardoucheian.
Thunderbolt Smith: IT’S TOTAL CHAOS!
Security hits the ring and tries to pull both sides apart.
Thunderbolt Smith: While security restores order, let’s see what happened when the MVW Men’s Tag Team Champions… and HOTv Tag Team champions The Alabama Gang showed up via video on Sunday’s CHAOS 25.
SPEAKING OF CHAOS… THE ALABAMA GANG APPEAR ON HIGH OCTANE WRESTLING’S CHAOS HOW’s High Octane Vision fires up. It’s R.G. Jenkins, Mark Hendry, and Sunny O’Callahan cutting a promo inside the ring at MVW Studios.
Jenkins speaks.
JENKINS’S COMMENTS: -Jenkins says they were all ginned up for our big showdown tonight with Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr but the powers that be decided the match will be next Sunday night instead. -HOW’s running in St. Louis next week. It’s a natural fit, MVW’s The Alabama Gang defending the HOTv tag belts in St. Louis… the home of MVW. Except for one thing, he and Hendry won’t be there. -If Ryan and Starr want the belts, they’ll have to show up at their house… MVW house show in Paducah, Kentucky on Sunday night. -The Alabama Gang don’t have anything to lose here because no one expects them to beat Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr.
The owner of Missouri Valley Wrestling- Ray McAvay- joins the Alabama Gang in the shot.
McAVAY’S COMMENTS: -He says he came out to assure both Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr that they will be treated with the same fairness that Joe Bergman received last weekend in England.
Thunderbolt Smith: A reference to Joe Bergman’s loss at March to Glory in a four-way match that ended up a three-on-one handicap match in actuality.
The Kentucky Redneck Mafia (Cletus T. Johnson/Enos T. Johnson w/Ginny Van Lear) and The Kings of the Wild Frontier (Boone Daniels/Crockett Davies) come out to make it look as if the match is going to be a three versus one tag match for the title.
But McAvay dismisses the other teams and they exit.
-Ray states he takes title matches very seriously. He doesn’t put up with shenanigans, outside interference, or any other bullshit taking place in title matches. -Dan Ryan and Jatt Starr earned their title chance fair and square in the ring and they will get a fair shot at the HOTv Tag Team title that Joe Bergman didn’t get defending the HOTv title at March to Glory.
Ray McAvay: Oh and Lee… here’s your Evil Empire right back atcha.
McAvay flips off the camera… and Sunny does too… as the HOV goes black.
JENNIFER COLTON INTERVIEW Kellie has the challenger… for the Women’s Title match that will take place later on in the show… with her.
COLTON’S COMMENTS: -Jennifer tells Kellie she knows she’s not only taking on Daryn Thompson tonight… she’s taking on every member of Jill Berg Enterprises. -She says she’s put in the time and effort… she’s beaten everyone that MVW has put in front of her… the only reason she didn’t win the Heartland belt from Tessa Martin was due to JBE interference. -Tonight is her night. No interference. Just her and Daryn. Jennifer plans to make the most of the opportunity to become a champion.
JILL BERG ENTERPRISES PROMO Inside Jill Berg Enterprises’s dressing room, CEO Jill Berg speaks with Sheline Carrigan and Prisoner #034291 standing with her.
BERG’S COMMENTS: -Jill Berg reiterates that Jill Berg Enterprises means business and that’s bad news for the Hanson Sisters. -She says the wrestling business is built on stars as champions and wannabe stars as the challengers. Unfortunately, that’s not the case tonight. -Carrigan and Prisoner #034291 will do what it takes to bring the gold back to where it belongs… with Jill Berg Enterprises.
HANSON SISTERS INTERVIEW Kellie Burkowski has Coach Reg and the Hanson Sisters (Andrea, Charissa, and Melissa Hanson) with her as they’re about to head toward ringside. Andrea and Melissa proudly display the MVW Women’s Tag Team title belts.
COACH REG COMMENTS: -JBE can’t even imagine what kind of business is about to hit them. -The Hansons are here for a fight. Let’s see if Carrigan and Prisoner #034291 is up to one.
And with that, Coach Reg and the Hansons depart.
Thunderbolt returns and we’ll have the Tag Title match after these commercial messages.
HEARTLAND REPORT with KELLIE BURKOWSKI Kellie updates the Heartland Divisions. Victoria McGill defeated Madison Carter on MVW’s Six-0-Five show on Saturday and then went on to dismantle ‘Extreme Pizza Delivery Girl’ Tessa Martin to win the Women’s Heartland title for the fifth time- tying her with Martin for the most title runs in the division.
In the Men’s Heartland Division, Scott Stevens again defeated Buckshot Henderson to retain the Men’s Heartland Title for the third time. With the third title defense done and dusted, will Stevens choose to try to move into the Men’s Division?
Heather Cooper: Ladies and gentlemen. Our next match will be one fall…
ONE FALL!
…and it will be for the MISSOURI VALLEY WRESTLING WOMEN’S TAG TEAM TITLE!
RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Heather Cooper: Introducing first, the challengers…
Warren Zevon’s “The Hockey Song” comes on over the loudspeakers.
Coach Reg leads out Andrea and Melissa Hanson as Cooper introduces them.
The Hanson Sisters – The hockey-loving Hanson Sisters always bring their hockey sticks to the ring and wear their thick black horn-rimmed glasses while dressed in their retro Charlestown Chief hockey uniforms.

Then…
THUMP
THUMP
THUMP-THUMP-THUMP
The video screen shows the door to a dressing room in the back. A police escort is waiting at the door. One of the policemen knocks on the door.
Policeman: “Ms. Berg. It’s time.”
The door opens and eight male bodyguards walk out of the dressing room encircling CEO Jill Berg and her male assistant in the middle.
Berg is busy talking on her cell phone. The man furiously scribbles down notes as the group makes their way toward the ring.
‘Canadian Cyborg’ Sheline Carrigan, Prisoner #034291, and ‘Extreme Pizza Delivery Girl’ Tessa Martin follow.

**************************
Back from break… Melissa Hanson and Sheline Carrigan square off and have a staredown.
*DING-DING-DING*
Thunderbolt Smith: THAT’S THE BELL! COUNT-OUT?
Rick Hall: Thunderbolt, as Prisoner #034291 tried to fight off both Melissa and Charissa Hanson outside the ring, Bailey Jenkins reached ten on the count and she immediately called for the bell.
Jill Berg now up on the apron.
Thunderbolt Smith: Jill Berg is screaming at the referee. She’s demanding an explanation.
The Hansons are all in the ring. They are celebrating with Coach Reg.
Rick Hall: The explanation is simple. Prisoner #034291 did not return to the ring within the ten count and this disqualifies Jill Berg Enterprises.
Thunderbolt Smith: Here’s Heather Cooper to clarify what’s just happened.
Cut to Heather in the ring.
Heather Cooper: Referee Bailey Jenkins has stopped the match at seventeen minutes and fourteen seconds. The winner by count-out…
Jill Berg climbs into the ring and confronts Jenkins.
Heather Cooper: …AND STILL THE MISSOURI VALLEY WRESTLING WOMEN’S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… THE HANSON SISTERS!
Berg is livid. Jenkins attempts to calmly explain to her what happened.
Thunderbolt Smith: Well well well.
Rick Hall: Jill can yell at Bailey Jenkins all she wants. The referee started a ten count on Prisoner #034291 to get her to return to the ring. She did not comply. She called the match for The Hanson Sisters. Not much more to it.
The Hansons exit the ring… both Andrea and Melissa hold up their MVW Women’s Tag Team title belts… leaving Carrigan, Prisoner #034291, and a fuming Jill Berg still delivering a verbal lashing to referee Bailey Jenkins.
Thunderbolt Smith: Speaking of referees, we’ve got breaking news from the back.
Cut to…
BREAKING NEWS FROM THE BACK Kellie Burkowski is backstage. Behind her, medical personnel attends to referee Ron Martin.
Kellie explains that someone jumped Martin in the back and busted him open. She notes that Martin was the referee of the Stevens Dynasty-Surf Express Bro match earlier in the show which had a controversial end to it. Kellie adds a backstage worker found the referee down on the floor bleeding.
MVW Owner Ray McAvay arrives on the scene. He checks on Martin. He’ll be okay.
Then McAvay exits… not happy.
Thunderbolt steps back in. It’s time for our final commercial break. The Women’s Title match is coming up after these commercial messages.
McAVAY ON A MISSION The camera follows as Ray McAvay walks with purpose to the dressing rooms backstage. He arrives at the one with “STEVENS DYNASTY” on the door.
McAvay dispenses with protocol and opens the door. Cary Stevens’s head whips around. He demands to know what the hell Ray wants.
McAvay tells Cary he knows why he’s here. Ray’s about to suspend Cary for a month for attacking a referee.
Two weeks ago, Cary was stopped from attacking Ron Martin after The Stevens Dynasty lost the tag belts to the Alabama Gang. .
Scott Stevens tells McAvay he’s been in the dressing room ever since the match ended.
Ray looks at Bo and George. They collaborate Scott’s story.
Then McAvay turns to Ricky Stevens. He confirms Cary has not left the dressing room.
Ray McAvay: Then who?
Cut to…
Kris, Ken, Koley, and Kourtney Kardoucheian pile into a waiting limo outside the arena. Once inside and the door slams shut, the limousine speeds away.
JILL BERG ENTERPRISES INTERVIEW Kellie has CEO Jill Berg with her.
BERG’S COMMENTS: -Jill bitterly complains again about Ray McAvay banning the rest of JBE from ringside for the Daryn Thompson-Jennifer Colton match. -She says Daryn Thompson’s match is corporate business and JBE should have a right to be at ringside to protect their interest in the match. -When Kellie asks about the outside interference… Jill gives a corporately canned response reaffirming JBE has every right to be there to watch their associate Daryn Thompson defend the Women’s title.
Thompson holds up the Women’s belt and then makes her way down the ramp
HALL’S PREVIEW: -Jennifer Colton comes in here tonight with a lot of momentum after rolling past Lisa Barbosa-Stevens, Yosemite Samantha, and Shizuko Yamazaki to rise to #1 in the Women’s contender’s rankings. -Colton traveled the same path of rapidly moving up through the Women’s Heartland and Women’s Division rankings that Daryn Thompson did. -This is Daryn Thompson’s second Women’s title defense. Her first defense took place on February 21st against Shizuko Yamazaki.
Corrina Romanov will be the referee for this match.
She does the pre-match check and calls for the bell.
Thunderbolt Smith: And it’s Daryn Thompson with the win!
Heather Cooper: YOUR WINNER AT EIGHT MINUTES AND FIFTY SECONDS… AND STILL MISSOURI VALLEY WRESTLING WOMEN’S CHAMPION… DARYN… THOMPSON!
Rick Hall: Wow. Thunderbolt, Colton kept fighting… she kept getting surprise roll-ups on Thompson… and didn’t give up. But Thompson’s strength and composure under duress win out in the end and she retains the title.
CEO Jill Berg walks down the ramp towards ringside followed by Sheline Carrigan, Prisoner #034291, and ‘Extreme Pizza Delivery Girl’ Tessa Martin.
Thunderbolt Smith: All right. Surf Express Bro pick up a stunning, but controversial, victory tonight over The Stevens Dynasty. The Hansons retain the Women’s Tag Team title when Prisoner #034291 got counted out by referee Bailey Jenkins. And then Daryn Thompson holds off Jennifer Colton in her second Women’s title defense.
Rick Hall: Interesting night, Thunderbolt. Very interesting.
Thunderbolt Smith: That’s going to do it. We will be back next week with the next edition of Wrestling Night in the Heartland. See you then.

3/21/2023 WRESTLING NIGHT IN THE HEARTLAND PREVIEW
Tomorrow night’s Wrestling Night in the Heartland will come to you live from the Joseph Gentile Center in Chicago, Illinois.
The first match will be a number one contender’s match in the Men’s Tag Team Division. Former Men’s Tag Team champions The Stevens Dynasty lost the belts in January to The Alabama Gang (R.G. Jenkins and Mark Hendry). Family patriarch Cary Stevens is bound and determined to make sure Bo and George Stevens regain the titles- especially after they defeated The Alabama Gang two weeks ago by a count-out but did not win the titles back. First, they must get past the team they met four weeks ago- Surf Express Bro. Bowie Abrams and Bradlee Nelson have steadily moved up the rankings over the past few months and came close to defeating the Stevens four weeks ago. Abrams and Nelson will be looking to break through and earn their own title shot against the Alabama Gang.
Match number two will be the Women’s Tag Team Title rematch between champions The Hanson Sisters and the challengers- and former champions- Jill Berg Enterprises. The Hansons are three-time Women’s Tag Team champions and won the title from JBE four weeks ago. Andrea and Melissa Hanson- guided by Coach Reg- bring a no holds barred, hockey-like attitude to the ring and they are always ready and willing to fight. Jill Berg Enterprises ‘Canadian Cyborg’ Sheline Carrigan and Prisoner #034291 are bolstered by the corporate power CEO Jill Berg and JBE brings to the table. Can JBE regain the belts? Or will the Hansons continue to roll on?
And in the main event, Daryn Thompson- representing Jill Berg Enterprises- will make her second Women’s Title defense against newcomer Jennifer Colton. Colton has not lost a match in her fledgling MVW career and booked her title shot with wins over Lisa Barbosa-Stevens, Yosemite Samantha, and Shizuko Yamazaki. She will have her hands full though tomorrow night with Daryn Thompson- the first female wrestler in MVW history to win the Women’s Title while holding the Women’s Heartland Title. Thompson eased past Yamazaki in her first title defense last month but she may have a lot more on her hands when she faces Colton tomorrow night in Chicago, Illinois.
Also scheduled for the show: -The Kardoucheian Empire -Special appearance by the Men’s Tag Team Champions The Alabama Gang
Missouri Valley Wrestling 2.0
