Matt Cardona Loses To Mystery Opponent At NWA 74

In a stunning turn of events during tonight’s NWA 74, Matt Cardona suffered a loss to his hand-picked opponent.

Tonight saw Cardona make his long awaited return following a bicep injury the superstar suffered. In an effort to showcase his skill, Cardona picked his opponent, a superstar named Rolando Freeman, who came down to the ring ready to go. Shockingly, it was Freeman would get the win, after suffering at the hands of Cardona for most of the match and surviving just long enough to schoolboy pin Cardona while he was arguing with the referee.

For a complete rundown of how the match ended, check out below courtesy of our play-by-play coverage:

Cardona asks for a handshake but he ends up kicking Freeman in the stomach. Cardona extends his hand once more, and Freeman shoves him away. Cardona ties up with him in the corner before getting on his knees and asking for a test of strength. Freeman punches Cardona in the face and tackles him, then charges the corner. Cardona jumps up with the double knees, then connects with some mounted punches before choking Freeman on the middle rope. Freeman comes back with a dropkick and a DDT for two. Freeman lands some punches, but Cardona drops him with a double forearm smash and elbows him in the corner. Broski Boot in the corner, but Cardona stops his own cover at two. The referee asks what he’s doing, and Cardona says he can do what he wants and shoots a snot rocket at Freeman. He goes for a cover and flips off the ref, but Freeman schoolboys him and steals the win.

Winner – Rolando Freeman
