Can Xavior Be Trusted?

Posted: Dec 18th 2010 By: CMBurnham

Over the past couple of months, IZW Tag Team Champions Kevin Morgan & MSWA Oklahoma Champion Xavior have had to look at each other in different ways. One of the most prominent feuds in Oklahoma City took place between these two men, but when circumstances forced them to tag together, the bad blood might have cooled. The question is: how long will that last?

Morgan tried to get some answers two weeks ago during the "Old School Corner" interview segment with Tom Jones. But he was interrupted by Impact, Inc. and nothing was resolved. This week, Morgan was forced to wrestle rookie newcomer Rudy Edwards, despite protests from "The Awesome One" that he had other issues to deal with. MSWA commissioner Shawn McKeaigg said he either wrestled Edwards or he went home for 2 months with no pay. Morgan quickly disposed of the Impact, Inc. wannabe with his signature running powerslam, but then Impact, Inc. hit the ring and commenced a gangland style beating, cluminating with MSWA Mid-South Champion Johnny Z slamming his championship belt into the forehead of Morgan. Dustin Daniels came to the rescue, but after taking Johnny off his feet, the rest of Impact, Inc. swarmed in on the pint-sized competitor. And then, to many people's surprise, Xavior arrived with a steel chair. Impact, Inc. scattered like roaches, leaving Morgan and Xavior in the ring alone. Morgan left his back turned to Xavior and it appeared to everyone that Xavior was going to put the chair to use. When Morgan turned around, Xavior wound up and began to swing...but never followed through. Instead, he threw the chair down in frustration and stood facing his sometime-partner.

All this action had made Shawn McKeaigg irate and he ordered a match between Xavior and Bernie D as punishment. As should be expected, the match began with everyone brawling at ringside until finally the two combatants made thier way into the ring. IZW Champion Jermaine Johnson and La Reina de Corazones remained at ringside, but everyone else left. Not too long later, Johnny Z returned and there were several incidents of outside-the-ring beatings from the Impact, Inc. members. But the downfall came when Johnny hopped up on the ring apron to argue with referee Mark Wilson. Morgan returned and yanked Johnny down. Johnson tried to make his way over to assist, but was met with a hard punch to the face for his efforts. While all this was going on, Xavior caught Bernie in a small package and picked up the win.

Not exactly working together, but no bashing each other's heads in. That seems to be the status of "The Awesome Ones" at this point. They've been noticeably absent from the IZW shows, despite being tag team champions. Morgan faced Angel Williams this past Saturday alone while Xavior was part of the Nemesis reformation in SWCW. It seems unlikely that they've done much preparation for their Triple Threat Tag Team match at Chaotic Christmas on December 18. And if both men were hoping not to have to deal with each other, that just isn't going to be in the works as Shawn McKeaigg announced that on January 9, The Awesome Ones would take on Johnny Z & Bernie D at MSWA's "New Year's Revolution". It appears that this might be the proving point to determine whether Morgan and Xavior continue down the road together or whether they reignite one of the biggest feuds of 2010.
