Matt Cardona Takes A Frankensteiner From A Child

Matt Cardona wrestled independent stalwart Josh Prohibition at an AIW show in Cleveland, Ohio this weekend. Cardona has played the ultimate heel during his post-WWE run, collecting championships from promotions all over the place. During the match, Prohibition’s daughter, Sophia, got involved.

Cardona raised a steel chair above his head when Sophia entered the ring. He thought twice but decided smashing a child in the head was a bad idea. Instead, Cardona set Sophia up for a powerbomb. That move was reversed, and Matt Cardona took a frankensteiner from her.

Cardona spring back up, selling the move, which allowed Prohibition to get a near-fall. Ultimately, Matt won the match. Josh Prohibition couldn’t have been happier to see his little girl stand up for him.

“I didn’t get the outcome I wanted but I couldn’t be more proud of my daughter Sophia for sticking up for her Dad! Ride or die. Family Forever!”
