[2000-12-03-ECW-Massacre on 34th Street] Christian York & Joey Matthews vs Simon Diamond & Johnny Swinger

[GSR]

Just as the match is about to get underway Dawn Marie heads to the ring clutching a piece of paper.  She takes the microphone from Stephen D’Angelis and says that she needs a man, leading to Joel Gertner screaming “pick me” as Joey Styles tells him to sit down.  One man isn’t enough for her though as she is way too much woman.  Gertner quips “Joey, we’ve been friends for a while...” but Styles cuts him off saying that he’s happily married.  She has a proposition, a managerial contract for two men who can step up to the plate, who can fill all of her desires, oh and that contract includes her mind for the wrestling business too.  Dawn hands the contract to York, who drops it, and as she bends down to pick it up Matthews stoops down himself to look up her skirt.  That’s an offense in 2019 but these mutants find it hilarious.  Not wanting to be left out of being seen as a perv, when Matthews holds the ropes open for Dawn to exit the ring, York then takes a peak up there himself.  Simon & Swinger jump their more youthful opponents, sending York sprawling to the outside as they land a huge double press slam on Matthews.  Joey ducks the double clothesline and York pulls Simon to the floor with him where he whips him into the guard rail.  ‘Future Shock’ on Swinger followed by a double suplex on Simon.  The whip to the corner is reversed, York with a tip up, but Simon catches and dumps him out onto the apron where Swinger nails him with an enzuigiri.  S&S are in control as Simon hits his ‘Simon Series’ trio of suplexes.  Swinger collects a chair from ringside but as he heads up top Dawn swipes it away from him.  Maybe she has made her mind up already about who she wants?  Clothesline off the top, however York moves and Swinger ends up taking out his own partner.  Face first slam on Swinger as York makes the tag.  Matthews kicks a field goal between Simon’s legs and gives Swinger a Hangman’s neckbreaker.  Suicide dive by Joey which Christian betters with an almighty springboard plancha to the floor of the Hammerstein Ballroom.  Back inside York heads up top, but Swinger pushes referee John Finnegan into the ropes causing him to lose his balance.  ‘Simonizer’ on Matthews.  S&S look for a double team superplex, however Joey is to his feet and over to help his partner.  After a sunset flip into a powerbomb on Simon they give Swinger the ‘Rebel Yell’ (top rope frankensteiner/elbow drop combination) to not only pick up the win, but the services of Dawn Marie too.  Gertner senses something is up with Matthews and leaves his position at the broadcast booth to go down to the ring to check on him.  Dawn Marie and York embrace before she then rakes him in the eyes.  ‘Problem Solver’ on York as Styles says it was a set up and that Dawn was with Simon & Swinger all along.
