Time for Jonny to Cash the Checks His Mouth Has Been Writing...
We have to wonder exactly what Jonny did to deserve a face-off with Indy star Stryker. Matt has been cutting a path of destruction through the ranks of BG East since his arrival. He boasts a devastating combination of brutal power, high quality submission holds, and astonishing speed for a brute his size. Matt also boasts a slash-and-burn approach to every match. He climbs into the ring with the expressed purpose of not just defeating his opponent, but pounding him into a pulp, and proving over and over again that there's no one who could ever seriously stand toe-to-toe with him without a ref in the ring.
Jonny is giving up 5 inches in height and a mind-boggling 70 pounds against the hairy-chested hunk, which, again, begs the question: what did Jonny do to deserve this!? Has the young star-on-the-rise gotten a bit too big for his britches? When he climbed into the ring with rookie Rudy Cortez, Jonny made an ominous assertion. "I don't think there's anyone in the whole world who can compete with me in this ring," Jonny boasted. After some heated negotiations behind closed doors with The Boss after that bout (involving quite a few incoherent shouts of anger), Jonny stomped out fuming, leaving The Boss with Jonny's signature on a contract to climb into the ring with one Malicious Matt Stryker.
Illustrating that he has the power to back up his conditioning, Jonny pumps out some one-armed push-ups in the center of the ring. "Hey there, Jonny boy!" Matt shouts when he steps into the room. Climbing into the ring, Matt asks, as if concerned for Jonny's welfare, "Get yourself stretched out? Don't worry, pal, I'll take care of that for you!"
Jonny backs into a corner at the sight of his opponent's hulking form. Matt's thighs are bigger around than Jonny's waist. "Hey, I'm not scared of you," Jonny mutters, looking uncharacteristically scared, despite himself. Even facing the hulking form of his massive opponent, Jonny keeps talking, keeps boasting. "I've faced bigger guys, stronger guys. Guys like you have got to learn: the bigger you are, the harder you fall!"
Indeed, Jonny proves his point repeatedly throughout this match, capitalizing on his advantage in speed to capture multiple single-leg takedowns. When Matt hits the mat, someone really needs to shout, "Timber!" because he's like a downed tree making the entire ring shake. A master wrestling technician, Jonny is determined to stick to the tried-and-true game plan of a small guy out to pick off his bigger opponent: take the big man off his feet and wear him out with fast-paced chain wrestling. Good luck, Jonnyboy!
