MARITIME HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP

Leo Burke defeats Champion ”Rotten” Ron Starr by DQ.

Burke appeared to have the title within his grasp, when he caught Starr in the Sleeper Hold. Starr realizing that he was in the middle of the ring and no place to go, slugged referee Ron Goguen. With referee Ron Goguen out cold, Super Destroyer and Bobby Bass charged the ring and attacked Burke making it a 3 on 1 attack till Stephen Petitpas and Bobby Kay came charging the ring to make the save and clear the ring.

After tending to Burke for several minutes, Burke grabbed the microphone and told Starr that hitting him this past week on TV was an accident, but obviously Starr thinks it was on purpose. Burke tells Starr that he’s started a war and this is just the beginning. He challenged Starr, Bass and Super D to a 6 man match up next week against Petitpas, Kay & himself. Then he announces that maybe they shouldn’t wait.

They jumped out of the ring and a wild brawl erupted around the ring. The battle continued for several minutes, till Starr, Bass and Destroyer retreated to the back.

Burke and Starr put on a good one. Brown and Pogo are going to be tough to beat with all that experience. The Cuban assassin needs to smarten up.

I really enjoyed the 6-man tag match before the intermission. Pogo and Brown as Tag champs are growing on me, they're an unusual pairing, but I think it works. I can't wait to a rematch with them against Casey/Richie.

Burke and Starr was a lot of fun. Man, I can't wait for that 6-man tag next week!

Pogo and Brown were actually tag Champs IRL in the Maritimes, can't totally remember the year right now...but they were hated like hell. Then again anything that involved Brown had the fans going crazy wanting blood.
