President Cena has put together what can only be called a tag team battle of the big men when the unlikely duo of Rick Fuller & Islander Makua (with Bull Montana) team up to face "Executioner" Brian Milonas & Max Bauer of Ox Baker's Army (with Vito Carluccio) this Saturday night at SOUL SURVIVOR V.
This war has been brewing for well over a year. Rick Fuller made his triumphant return to the MWF at SOUL SURVIVOR IV, winning the Tony Rumble Memorial Battle Royal. After the match, Army members circled around the ring like sharks, ready to tear Fuller apart. Fuller went on to decimate Nocturne so bad that he hasn't been seen in the MWF since. His battles with Milonas in singles action has had to come out with a decisive victor as the two have brawled all over countless venues. Fuller also teamed with the legendary Demolition Smash to defeat Milonas and Makua in a tag team casket match, earning Fuller a championship opportunity.
Makua fell out of favor with the Army after he was dumped into the casket by Fuller and later defeated by Scott Reed. When Vito Carluccio took over the Army while Ox Baker continues to search for assassins near and far, the new look Army of Milonas, Max Bauer, Sledge Robertson and the monster known as Gozman gave Makua a beating to send a message that they mean business.
Fuller and Makua aren't exactly friends, but certainly have common enemies in Milonas and Bauer. This event marks the massive Bauer's SOUL SURVIVOR debut as the Army is going to have to come at Fuller and Makua full throttle to prove that they can live up to their evil mentor's legend. Put the women and children to bed for this one!
