PAGEOT, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR<\/h3>\n<p><em>Commentary: Effy, Rich Bocchini<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy Wrestling is a brand-new indie promotion out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Slated to begin life in the spring of 2020 but thwarted by the COVID-19 pandemic, their first tapings ever took place in January and that footage now sees the light of day as a four-episode YouTube series called <em>Canned Heat<\/em>. The first episode premiered three weeks ago.\u00a0 <em>Canned Heat<\/em> covers the entirety of an eight-person tournament with competitors vying to win the first Enjoy Cup.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>-We opened with Ziggy Haim in a darkened locker room.\u00a0 She was unhappy about The Bird &amp; The Bee challenging her to a tag team match (after Haim stole Edith Surreal&#8217;s mask on episode 2).\u00a0 They said she could find her own partner so she was going with someone she could trust.\u00a0 She zipped open a body bag laying next to her and Shawn Phoenix sat up.\u00a0 (He had been in there since Mr. Grim put him at the start of episode 1.)\u00a0 They agreed to reunite Keystone State Dudecore for one last time.\u00a0 (Keystone have teamed regularly for Pennsylvania indie Ryse Wrestling.)<\/p>\n<p>-Opening theme.<\/p>\n<p>-Our commentators checked in and discussed the journeys of MV Young and Lee Moriarty to get to the final of the Enjoy Cup.<\/p>\n<p>-Ring announcer Meg Fair introduced the heels first for this bonus non-tournament match.\u00a0 Haim wore Surreal&#8217;s old mask to the ring and hung it on the ring post like a trophy.\u00a0 The faces danced out to &#8220;Under Pressure&#8221;
