MMA Rules Cage Fight

Jake Hager (with Chris Jericho) vs. Wardlow (with Shawn Spears)

Tony Schiavone makes clear that each competitor was allowed one man in their corner for their fight so Hager chose Jericho and Wardlow picked Shawn Spears. We have a full octagon set up. Justin Roberts make the official introductions and Wardlow disrespectfully has his back turned to Hager. Full MMA vibe going on here, complete with camera angles.


Bell rings and Wardlow evades a speedy set of punches by Hager. Hager goes for an amateur wrestling takedown, but Mr. Mayhem remains vertical. Hager jabs Wardlow and walks off. We tick down to the halfway point as Hager goes for a thigh kick, corners Wardlow, but the big man tosses him off. Double leg takedown by Hager. Another one. He goes for the ground and pound, but Wardlow pushes him back with his legs. Big right hand by Wardlow followed by a takedown but he can’t get the mount for a ground and pound.


Haymakers are being thrown . Hager looks wobbly, Wardlow hits a Superman punch off the cage and Wardlow stays on top of him. Wardlow is looking to end Hager against the cage as the clock ticks down to end round one.


END ROUND ONE

Post-fight, Hager actually offers Wardlow a fist bump, but Spears comes in to attack him. Jericho comes in and the two gang up on him. MJF comes in and locks in the Salt of The Earth on Jericho’s injured arm. Jericho visibly taps. Dean Malenko comes in to stop him. MJF does briefly, but does punches the Iceman! Out comes Sammy Guevara who sends the bad guys high-tailing.


Frankie Kazarian is with Eddie Kingston and Penta. Kaz cites a verse from The Bible about vengeance and mentions that he doesn’t always agree with The Lord. Eddie tells them to pray to their God, because their asses are theirs. Penta states his catchphrase as Eddie gives a wink.


Team Taz is backstage, and Taz makes it clear to Ricky Starks that this thing between he and Brian Cage needs to end now. Powerhouse Hobbs isn’t a fan of being left high-and-dry last week because of it. Taz agrees and lays down a challenge to Hangman Page next Saturday Night’s Dynamite: Hangman vs. Hobbs.
