This match is from the Frontier Grappling Arts show “Hatred: Chapter 2” and is reproduced with permission. The full original show is available here.

“Let’s See Action” by The Who starts playing throughout the arena until Roger Daltrey’s vocal booms forth as Ben Hanson appears at the top of the aisle. Ben poses with his right fist raised to the skies. Three seconds later and he’s making his way down the aisle, slapping hands with the adoring fans on both sides of the aisle. Ben slides in under the bottom rope.

Clement: Here we are. It is main event time and the GFC World Heavyweight Championship is on the line! “The Metal Heart” Ben Hanson has the crowd on his side. And he also has the momentum on his side. The last time these two were in the ring, Hanson defeated him at Final Frontier back in December of 2012. Chandler Scott has admitted that that match affected him. And if you ask me, it’s still affecting him.

Grayson: The past is the past. Let’s talk about the here and now. Chandler is the champion while Hanson has been on sitting on the couch for nearly the past year. You want to talk about momentum? The GFC World Heavyweight Champion is the one with momentum, Kev.

The classic beginning notes of “Ride of the Valkyries” plays over the PA as the fans in attendance know who is about to grace them with their presence. Out through the curtain steps Chandler Scott, wearing his Harvard letterman jacket. Walking down the ring with him is Madison Scott, who walks arm and arm with him. The two lovebirds ignore the boos, jeers and catcalls of the crowd, shooing them away like the trash that they are. After Chandler hops onto the apron, he helps Madison up onto the apron. Chandler then sits down on the bottom rope while holding the top rope up for Madison. After Madison makes her way into the ring, Chandler steps into the ring. He slowly turns around in a circular motion with his arms outstretched, basking in his glory while the crowd continues to boo.

Clement: 2012 didn’t end on a high note for Chandler. And 2013 didn’t start out any better. But since March, the former FGA Heavyweight Champion has been on a roll. He’s captured the Pride Championship. He won the GFC World Heavyweight Championship. He’s made history. But can he beat his hated rival one more time, right here, in Hanson’s home state, with the GFC World Championship on the line?

Grayson: Of course he can. He’s upped his game to a new level. He is wrestling better than ever. He’s the man. And if I know Chandler like I know him, he’d rather get hit by a bus than let a guy like Hanson take the gold away from him.

Clement: Well we’ll find out shortly who is the better man tonight. Right now, let’s send it over to Manny Cruz….

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. And it is for the GFC World Heavyweight Championship!

(Cheers and applause can be heard throughout the crowd.)

Cruz: Introducing first, the challenger. From AKRON, OHIO….

(The crowd explodes with cheers as Hanson smiles.)

Cruz: … weighing in at 216 pounds…. he is “The Metal Heart”, BEN HANSON!

(Hanson raises his arms as he’s showed with purple and black streamers. Cheers and a “Metal Heart” chant can be heard throughout the crowd.)

Cruz: And his opponent….

(The crowd nearly blows Chandler out of the ring with the massive amount of boos.)

Cruz: … from Hyannis Port, Massachusetts… weighing in at 255 pounds…. he is the reigning…. defending…. GFC World Heavyweight Champion….. CHANDLER SCOTT!

(Chandler raises the belt with a smirk on his face to boos from the crowd. The crowd starts an “F YOU, CHANDLER!” chant. But Chandler plays them no mind.)

The bell sounds as both men make their way to the center of the ring. Chandler begins running his mouth as Hanson just stares a hole through him. Once he’s had enough with Chandler’s antics, Hanson blasts him with a right hand to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: And Hanson connects with a punch to the jaw. Maybe that will shut him up.

Grayson: His mouth could be wired shut and he’d still talk trash.

Chandler comes back and stumbles into another right hand to cheers from the crowd. Hanson connects with another right hand, sending Chandler stumbling into the corner.

Grayson: Give that man all the credit in the world. He was thrown for a loop with this out-from-left-field challenger. He had to come and defend the belt in hostile territory. He went into that ring with a gameplan and he executed it to a T. It’s a shame we’ll never seen him in an FGA ring again. But hey, if you’re going to go out, then what better way than to retain your belt against your arch rival…
