MCW Pro Wrestling presented Seasons Beatings on Friday, December 27, at the R.J. Meyer Arena in Joppa, MD. There were multiple title changes and multiple betrayals as allies and friends turned on each other. The results are below.
Alex Divine retained the MCW Rage TV Championship in a Six-Pack Challenge Match against Tony Macko, Jadis Quinn, Chris Slade, Chuck Lennox, and Alec Odin.
Spencer Slade defeated Tim Spriggs in a singles match. During the match, MCW General Manager Phil Stamper came to ringside to eject Cassius Cash Carter to prevent his further interference. As they approached the ramp going to the back, Carter took a swing, which Stamper blocked and then floored Carter with a punch of his own.
The Zukkos defeated The Hype to win the MCW Tag Team Championship. After the match, Amara Voyd turned on her team, and the lights went out and a video played. Clay Jacobs and AK Baine came out of the crowd and attacked The Hype and The Zukkos.
Gia Scott retained the MCW Women’s Championship against Nahir Robles.
The Mecca defeated Miami Mike Walker in a 10 Lashes Match. During the match, Hellfire McGuire came to the ring and was brutally beaten by The Mecca. He later came back to the ring with his ribs taped and ended up doing more harm than good for Miami Mike. Following the match, Mike offered to take the lashes for the injured McGuire, who then turned on him and finished the lashes on Walker himself. Hellfire McGuire then shook hands with The Mecca.
After intermission, Myles Hawkins defeated Samuray Del Sol in a singles match. Hawkins refused to shake hands after the match.
Ken Dixon defeated Patrick Clark in a grudge match. Clark got into a shoving match with MCW Senior Referee Mike Kehner at one point during the match, and Kehner ended up pushing him to the mat.
All Natural defeated Fenix Fury and Nikita in a tag team match. After the match, James Ellsworth turned on his own valet and superkicked Simone Valentina.
In the main event, Joe Keys defeated Kaun and Demarcus Kane in a Triple Threat Match to become the new MCW Heavyweight Champion. The Hustlers interfered from the beginning, and later on, Kaun's former tag team partner Moses came to the ring to even the odds. At one point, Joe Keys was on the top rope and had a chair thrown back at him, causing him to topple through the announce table, destroying it and sending everyone there to the floor, including ring announcer Danny Mays. At another point, Black Wallstreet's music played, and Chuck Lennox came out of the back, prompting the Hustlers to run toward him on the ramp while Gia Scott made her entrance in the ring from the other side to attack Keys. Chaos erupted in and around the ring as the fighting continued, with MCW security running to try to restore order. Ultimately, when it looked like Demarcus Kane was going to win, an MCW security guy came forward, removed a surgical mask, and spit water in Kane's face, allowing Keys to get the win. The unmasked man was revealed to be Dante Caballero, Keys' former tag team partner, who had gone on hiatus due to a knee injury in 2023.
This sets up upcoming storylines involving the Zukkos and Jacobs, Baine, and Voyd as well as a program involving Joe Keys and Demarcus Kane. Also, the way Hellfire McGuire and Miami Mike move forward will be interesting.
Overall, this was an exciting show. There were some things I don't usually like, including the chaotic ending to the main event, but in the context of the rest of the show, it made sense.
Miami Mike vs. Mecca was my match of the night, even aside from the Hellfire McGuire angle.
