In-Ring: Happy Corbin, Madcap Moss

Madcap Moss walks down to the ring. He is wearing short black tights with no suspenders. He gets in the ring and he says three weeks ago he was in the ring with a steel chair around his neck. And a 90 pound trophy slammed it on the chair. And Happy Corbin thought that would be the end of Madcap Moss. But he was right.

He says the man that he thought he knew as Madcap Moss was gone. The man that would take his crap week after week, the man that would just laugh it off, the employee, Madcap Moss isn’t just gone, Madcap buried him. He says when the weight of the trophy landed on him, every single night since then, he has had a dream where he is hitting Corbin in the face every time he says tell us a joke Madcap. And one day he woke up and he thought someone who would love to see that happen is everyone in the arena. He calls Corbin out to the ring.

Madcap says the only thing that he wants from him is for him to get in the ring that way he can knock his teeth down his throat. Corbin says there is nothing that would make him happier than gong down to the ring and teaching him another lesson in humility. But not tonight. Madcap is angry and not thinking straight and he would hate to see him throw his entire career because he is emotional. Corbin says it’s a bad idea.

Out comes Pearce. He says he thinks a match between them right now is a great idea. Pearce says the match is official.
