Jeremy Wyatt vs. Mark Sterling 60 min Iron Man match
3XWrestling Divide & Conquer 1/7/10
Des Moines Iowa
2011 started off with a match that would set the standard for everyone to reach for when two of the finest wrestlers in the country would take the fans on a roller coaster ride in a 60 Minute Iron Man Match. Jeremy Wyatt the former 3XWrestling Champion who held the belt from August 21, 2009 to July 9, 2010 would be taking on the 2010 3XW King of Des Moines tournament winner Mark Sterling.
A match so big that Pro Wrestling Illustrated photographer Wayne McCarty was at ringside along with MWR doing photography for this epic battle.
Sterling would strike first in a battle of wills when he caught Wyatt in the Markshooter. Could Wyatt of escaped? Possibly but the always thinking Wyatt would tap out thus giving Sterling the lead at 1-0.
Like a wounded animal, Wyatt would strike and out of nowhere hit his explosive ?Lightning Spiral? on Sterling and in three seconds later it was Wyatt 1 ?Sterling 1 with almost a half hour remaining in the match.
In the next 30 minutes each man would be able to get 3 pinfalls thus when the 60 minutes came to a close the score was Wyatt 4- Sterling 4.
Mark Campos said it best during his article ?With the fans in confusion and wanting more Commissioner? Todd Countryman ?The 3XW fans did not pay their hard earned money to see a draw this match will go into sudden death!? The roof blew off the top of the 3XW arena and these two fighters prepared to finish the war. Giving everything they had nonstop for over one hour the end to a terrific match finally came. Mark Sterling gave Jeremy Wyatt a piledriver of his own on top of a steel chair. Sterling made the cover and came away as 3XW?s true ironman!
The fans gave a rousing standing ovation for what they had just witnessed. Mark Sterling took the mic and asked for the time of the contest. It had gone ten minutes over regulation and these two superstars gave us their heart and soul for all seventy minutes of this awesome match. Sterling got up and said that Wyatt was the best he ever wrestled and extended his hand in respect. And unlike last time and quite unexpectedly Wyatt returned the handshake and they embraced in the ring. Wyatt raised Sterling?s hand and quietly left the ring. Sterling stood in his glory as this feud was now over and new conflicts will be on the horizon.
Two warriors came into the ring that night and after seventy minutes both of them left as legends.
