[2000-10-01-ECW-Anarchy Rulz] Joel Gertner vs Cyrus

[soup23]

Straight bullshit and ok enough but not on the level of Dangerously vs Cornette or anything. Both are in their business casual clothes until Gertner shreds the jacket. He also attempts to perform the People's Elbow by throwing his neck brace but this allows Cyrus to gain the advantage. Gertner ends up winning with a roll up and hopefully all remains of the Network angle are done now. 1/2*

[GSR]

The Sandman slingshots Cyrus into the ring and signals for the bell to get this match underway.  ‘Joelberg’ with a spear followed by some dreadful looking punches from the mount.  Gertner takes off his jacket and he’s got his chest all painted up like a white Kamala.  Running splash in the corner and as Cyrus falls to the mat in the centre of the ring he signals for ‘the Studmuffin elbow’, throwing his neck brace into the crowd as opposed to an elbow pad.  Cyrus trips him up as he jumps over him and then starts kicking and stomping away at him.  Even though he has never wrestled in ECW you can clearly tell that Cyrus is trained just by the way he throws those shots.  He intermittently mocks Sandman during the beat down until doing so one time too many, at which point Sandman spits beer in his face and Gertner schoolboys him for the three.  The Sandman, Kid Kash and Spike Dudley all join ‘the Studmuffin’ to celebrate the win with a beer although Gertner ends up getting it in his eyes when he tries to crush the can on his forehead a la Sandman!
