HOWARDS CREEK -- "Father" David Hayes and The Family made their presence felt again this past Saturday at the Howards Creek Veterans Center.

More than 100 people packed the Vet Center for the latest edition of MWF Saturday Night.

Fans were surprised at the beginning of the show by Commissioner Chris Mellon firing "Outlaw" Keith Matthews for Matthews' attacking Mellon at the end of the Oct. 11 show.

As a stunned Matthews stood in the ring, Father Hayes made the first of two appearances in the show.

Hayes suggested a two-on-one handicap match pitting himself and Nick James against Matthews for the tag team title. As Hayes and company were leaving the ring, Mellon decided to add a third person to the tandem of the family. To the shock of the fans, the third person was Matthews' tag-team partner, "The Sensation" Markus Hayes.

"When I laid in the ring at the Oct. 11 show, the fans cheered for what Outlaw did to me," said Mellon. "This is punishment for Outlaw to face three men for the titles."

During the match, Father Hayes and Nick James kept actively tagging in and out, leaving Markus Hayes standing on the side of the ring in frustration.

Finally, Matthews and The Sensation looked at each other, gave a high-five then turned the tide of the match.

And despite retaining the tag team titles, the duo ended up being beaten down on the canvas by The Family.

Coming up Saturday, Nov. 1, "Outlaw" Keith Matthews will face "Father" David Hayes in a Texas Death Match.

Mellon's negative influence would stretch beyond the semi-main event; he named himself special guest referee for the main event MWF Title match pitting "All American" Rob Deputy against the champion Pitt.

Again, for Deputy and friends Damage Inc., the outcome wouldn't be good.

Mellon said he was pleased with the outcome of the night.

"It was the best thing that could happen," said Mellon. "That's what the Outlaw gets for putting his hands on me."

Admission is $5, kids six and under get in for free. Doors open at 7 p.m. and bell time is at 8 p.m. For more information, visit www.mwf-live.com.
