Big and beefy Matt Reid has faced his share of BG East bad boys before A painful arm bar from 'reformed bad boy' battler Mikey has Matt screaming in pain on the mat Mikey struggling as the bigger man ties up his arms and legs with his own thick limbs Matt works Mikey's neck in a headscissors as the two powerful matmen struggle for dominance Matt fading fast in Mikey's tight sleeper: Is the big boy going out or has Mikey lost his touch?
Not Bad, You Prick!
Mike is unusually affable before the match, introducing himself and steering clear of the usual cocky wisecracks, eager to prove he has been born again as a kinder, gentler competitor. "Usually I have a bit of attitude, a nasty side," Mikey understates the truth with almost too much sincerity. "But I've been fighting a long time, man. You know? I want to get that away from me. Still gonna fight tough. But I don't want you to think I'm an asshole, okay?" He extends his hand, and Matt Reid gamely shakes it.
Matt is no stranger to stiff competition. He has faced some of the toughest customers in BG East history: Rick Samson, The Brooklyn Bodywrecker, and Bulldog Barzini, to name just three. These are big, brutish battlers with reputations for scorched-earth destruction in combat. Matt was well aware of Mikey Vee's reputation when he agreed to a best three out of five fall submission match against him. Like all wrestlers worth their salt, Matt is a game and earnest competitor, ready to take on any challenge or challenger.
After a long, huffing lockup Mikey takes Matt down and rides him, rapidly shifting from one side of the man to the other. Matt reverses, quickly and smoothly, and Mikey grumbles, "Not bad, you prick." But then Mikey reverses and gains a rear choke hold on Matt, triumphantly announcing, "How's that for a reversal, huh?" Matt struggles to escape, and for somebody who has supposedly turned a new leaf, Vee seems to relish his opponent's agonized groaning and writhing a bit too much. To his credit, Mikey breaks clean as soon as Matt submits. When Matt evens the score in Fall 2, Mikey uncharacteristically praises the man on his win. But as the match heats up, Mikey's veneer of hail-fellow-well-met begins to tear at the seams. Mikey resorts to rabbit punches to weaken his thicker and heavier foe. "That's the old Mike Vee," he exults. "I knew he was somewhere!"
Gaining three submissions, not all of them fairly, Mikey confesses that he got "a little out of control there" and offers Matt one more fall, winner takes all ... this time 100% clean and by the book, hand on his heart. Reid reluctantly accepts. Will Matt regret his decision? Will Mikey keep his word, even at the risk of losing all? One answer to both these questions: Get real, bros. This is a BG East match - and entertaining as hell!
