This would certainly appear to be a one-sided affair. However, if you are unfamiliar with MV Young, you are in for a surprise. This handsome and somewhat flamboyant star is not afraid to destroy himself and sacrifice his body for a victory. Should JD Drake underestimate Young, he will be in for a rude awakening at EFFY&#8217;s Big Gay Brunch<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">There are a couple of matches which are well, rather interesting. Parrow will be hosting a Twink Hunter Tag Team Gauntlet Match. Confirmed as participating so far are the teams of The Runway, Bitcoin Boyz, Bad Bitchez, and Pretty In Pink.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">EFFY will also be in action against Ace Perry in a Soul on a Pole match. Researching into this match type, it would appear it is the first of its kind. It is unknown as of press time what will represent the immortal soul on said pole, or what the winner will actually walk away with. This and so much more gay brunch-type antics are in-store at EFFY&#8217;s Big Gay Brunch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can watch EFFY&#8217;s Big Gay Brunch live or on-demand as part of GCW&#8217;s The Collective on FITE.
