We open in a darkened arena. In the middle a ring is bathed in bright white light. Standing inside that ring the Champions of Legacy standing in a "V" shape. On the right, The Syndicate, belts on their shoulders Gryffin and James are highly animated, hyping each other up, slapping one another on the shoulder, yelling, and nodding.

On the left side X-Calibur cradles his newly won Tao of Valor belt. With the No Limits Title over his shoulder, Issac Entragian stands stoic and cold, an eerie sight. In the center, Loco Martinez stands in front of a trophy case which holds the LEGACY World Title belt, among other things. He stares at the camera with a smirk on his face as we slowly zoom on the Legacy world champion.

The opening guitar of Skrape's "Rise" explodes, and the champions of Legacy are replaced by the rest of the Legacy roster. Hunger in their eyes. An explosion and quick clips of brawls begin to play.

"I'm defensive never questioned
I commit to no direction"

John Thomas and Crash brawling backstage. X-Calibur nailing a clothesline. Issac Entragian slamming an opponent to the mat with authority.

"I won't break down into weakness
If it feels good, it's a sickness "

Quick flash of finishers: Rocky Stellar's "Stellar Drop". Jake Dominion's "Ice Breaker". Cronos Diamante's "Countdown to Extinction". and capping it off with Dan Stein's "The Lights".

"I won't give up until the blood soaks my fingers
I recognize that the difference is my spirit "

Eli Storm and Ray Willmott go at it in a match with Katsuro Yoshida in Ray's corner, Alex Harmston in Eli's.

"Rise up in the fold -- I'm saved "

A Legacy referee raises Gryffin and James Win's hands in victory. Turns into Rawlings celebrating his victory in the Hawkins Memorial Tournament, continues with Rawlings hoisting the Legacy World title over his head, victorious, and finishes with Loco Martinez winning the World Title.

A brief pause. A circling shot of Diego on the top rope. One beat and Diego launches off the top rope nailing his corkscrew plancha on Katsuro Yoshida.

"The reflection in the mirror
Is the vision any clearer "

Loco looking up after his win over Crazy Boy. We swing around to see Dan Stein standing in the ring, glaring up the ramp at Kevin Oppenheimer.

"Though it may seem that I'm angry
Your reaction is what makes me "

Gigantus Awesomo stands face to face with Ezekiel Caine, and then we see a clip of Caine laid out in a pool of blood, followed by a clip of Orlando laid out in similar fashion.

Quick flash to John Thomas and Rocky Stellar both standing inside the ring. Quick flash to Justin Moreno's face to face confrontation with Mirage. Quick flash to the brawl between Moreno and Crazy Boy. Quick flash to clips from the big six-man tag featuring The Diabolik taking on Jake Dominion and Domination.

"I won't give up until the blood soaks my fingers
I recognize that the difference is my spirit "

Quick cut to Finishers: X-Calibur's "X-Terminator", Ron Bailey's "The Sure Thing", Justin Moreno's "Extreme Measures", and Crash's "Aero Zeppelin Driver".

"Rise up in the fold -- I'm saved"

We flash to that same opening shot. The Champions of Legacy. We flash again... and this time the rest of the Legacy roster stands over the champions shoulders. Hungry.

The streaming footage then changes over to a view of Landon Savage, Mark Perletta, and Joey C sitting at the recap position.

Mark Perletta: Good evening everyone and welcome to the web-cast of the DESTINED FOR GREATNESS weekend kick-off. This is the second pay per view in a row we’ve done a pre-show on the Friday prior to a pay per view event.

Landon Savage: The pre-show prior to CALL TO ARMS had three matches, this time there are so many competitors looking to prove themselves in LEGACY that the front office decided to DOUBLE the number of matches on this pre-show.

Joey C: During the six matches we have for you tonight, fourteen men get an opportunity to show the fans what they’ve got, and although this program is being broadcast on the internet, early indications show that more people will be watching or downloading tonight’s show than watched the pre-show prior to CALL TO ARMS, almost as many people as tuned in for STRIFE 25.

Mark Perletta: Time is money, even when you broadcast on the internet, so we can’t afford to talk about all the matches on the pre-show ahead of time, we just need to roll forward with each of them.

Landon Savage: The first match of this internet pre-show featured the LEGACY debut of a competitor who has been around the business for a while, and from what I saw, Greg Allocca is just as entertaining and energetic as ever.

Joey C: He slaps hands with the fans, he does backflips off turnbuckles, doing whatever he can to try to make an impression on these fans… and he’s basically the opposite of his opponent tonight.

Mark Perletta: In more ways than just one. Mostafa Bashir weighs nearly twice as much as Greg Allocca, and the perspective each one has on the world is also totally different.

Landon Savage: They both want to prove what they’ve got, and this turned into a tough match.

Joey C: Yeah, I was surprised that it actually didn’t suck. I thought the spot monkey and the no-talent oaf were going to stink it up, but their conflicting styles actually meshed fairly well. Let’s have a look at the footage.

Taking Allocca by the wrist, Mostafa Bashir sends his opponent into the ropes with an irish whip. On the return Allocca goes for his somersault back heel kick, but Mostafa Bashir grabs him in mid air, holds him there for a moment after taking a step back to dampen the impact. Bashir then runs into the corner, slamming Allocca’s back against the top turnbuckle, then he pivots around, getting his back up against the ropes and he tosses Allocca backwards, sending him over the top rope, crashing down onto the mat on the outside.

Mark Perletta: Greg Allocca tries for the move he calls the Beheader, but Mostafa Bashir was able to counter it, and now Greg is feeling the effects on the arena floor.

Landon Savage: The Beast from Kandahar might have gained the advantage, but he’s not following it up.

Joey C: He’s taking a breather. I think the fast pace from the beginning of this match took its toll on the big man.

Mark Perletta: Now Allocca’s starting to stir on the outside, and it looks like he wants to get back into the ring as soon as possible.

Landon Savage: Not the smartest decision, if you ask me.

Greg Allocca gets back into the ring, and when Bashir comes in and goes for a hard right hand, Allocca finds a way to block it, sending a right hand into Bashir’s chest in retaliation. The punch rocks Mostafa back a little, but Bashir steps in and drills Allocca with a headbutt that drops Greg down to a knee. Backing up a few steps, Mostafa charges in and drills Allocca with a kick to the chest that puts Allocca down onto his back.

Landon Savage: Greg Allocca is going to be lucky if that didn’t cave his chest in! Mostafa is a huge guy and he got some power behind that kick.

Mark Perletta: Bashir steps up next to Allocca… looks like he’s going to try to drop an elbow… NO! Greg rolls out of the way!

Both men struggle to be the first to get to their feet, and they both regain a vertical base about the same time. Allocca strikes first, naililng Bashir with two quick kicks to the gut, then leaps into the air and hits a jumping dropkick which rocks Mostafa Bashir back a few steps, but the big man doesn’t fall.

Joey C: He’s going to need a little more power behind his kicks to take Bashir down, even this late in the match.

Landon Savage: Allocca springs off the ropes for some momentum…

Leaping off the mat, running at full speed, Greg Allocca drills Mostafa Bashir in the chest with a double-legged dropkick. The Beast from Kandahar was taken off his feet, knocked clear onto his back, but Allocca was back on his feet almost before Mostafa’s head hit the mat. Not waiting for his opponent to get up, Greg gets out onto the apron and climbs to the top turnbuckle, and as soon as Mostafa gets to his feet and turns around, Allocca leaps off the top rope and goes for a headscissors takedown. Bashir shows off his incredible strength by grabbing Greg as he tries to swing through with the headscissors, Mostafa lifts him up, takes a couple steps and buries Allocca into the mat with a powerbomb.

Landon Savage: Not the best looking powerbomb in the world, but I'll take it.

Mark Perletta: If Mostafa Bashir can learn to properly execute a powerbomb, it could be a huge move in his arsenal, and I'm not so sure Allocca's going to be able to get up from that. Bashir moves in and makes the pinfall attempt...

One...

Two...

Allocca shoulders out!

Mostafa grabs Greg by the head and lifts him up off the mat, drilling him in the back with a forearm shot. Forcing Allocca to stand up straight, Mostafa then hits him in the gut with a hard right hand, doubling him over. Ducking down, Mostafa grabs Greg around the waist and lifts him up into a bearhug and begins to squeeze the life out of him. Thinking fast, Greg Allocca digs his hands into Mostafa's eyes, forcing the big man to ease up his grip to try to force him to let go of the eye gouge. When Bashir releases him, Greg gets to his feet and immediately hops back up, grabs Bashir around the head, swings around and plants him into the mat with a modified Tornado DDT.

Mark Perletta: Greg Allocca with some serious torque on that tornado DDT, which is rare when a competitor doesn't leap from the ropes.

Landon Savage: He's a serious athlete, that's for certain, and I'm amazed he didn't go for the pinfall...

Not wasting a second, Greg Allocca gets right up to the top rope and then immediately flips backwards, twisting around into a corkscrew moonsault and landing right down onto Bashir with the move he calls "The Condemning", getting a significant pop from the fans all around the arena.

Joey C: Holy crap, that was amazing!!

Mark Perletta: Allocca hooks the leg, this could be it!

One!

Two!

THREE!!

Josephina Colbert: Here is your winner... Greg... Allocca!!!

Mark Perletta: And there you have it, Greg Allocca wins in his LEGACY debut, pulling out a victory in the end.

Joey C: Another strong showing from Mostafa Bashir, but if he doesn't get some formal training from somewhere, he's not going to win too many matches here in LEGACY I don't think.

Landon Savage: Being big, strong, tough... that can only take you so far, but when you're facing a guy who is as technically sound as Greg Allocca, not having any formal training is a serious detriment.

Mark Perletta: Let's not take anything away from Greg Allocca, he's been around this business a while, he's a great talent, and there are plenty more wins for him in LEGACY yet to come. I don't think this victory was due to the short-comings of Mostafa Bashir.

Joey C: Talent has never been a problem with Greg Allocca. Consistancy is his problem. If he can get motivated and compete at the level he's capable of, he could be a champion here in short order.

Landon Savage: I haven't seen Greg Allocca wrestle half of the guys on this roster, so let's see how he does against a non foreign rookie before we assume what he could do here, shall we?

Backstage

Cronos Diamante and his good friend Voodoo survey the food and beverage table in the locker room area in hopes of finding something resembling food to tie them over for a couple of hours throughout the pre-show. Cronos hunts down a fruit package and picks up a plastic fork. He begins eating immediately as if he were starved for weeks. And as per usual, Voodoo picks the exact opposite to eat and lifts a chocolate donut from the table.

Cronos Diamante: This is some good fruit. Ripe and fresh. How’s that fat loving, sugar infested donut of yours?

Cronos smirks as Voodoo takes a big ol' bite of his donut and smirks.

Voodoo: Full of all the unhealthy stuff that I love. Breakfast of champions! Don'tcha know Birdie-boy? You can have the rabbit food.

Cronos scoffs as he forks a piece of watermelon into his mouth.

Cronos Diamante: I’d hardly call it rabbit food and at least it‘s healthy.

Voodoo smirks slightly.

Voodoo: So why we out here for this? It's just a pre-show, you ain't even wrestling in it.

Cronos Diamante: I like pre-shows. A lot of the guys that don’t make the main show work their ass off to prove to the boss they can hack it. It reminds me of when we first started out. Remember your roots type of thing, ya know?

Voodoo chuckles as Cronos shovels a few more pieces of fruit in his mouth.

Voodoo: Aye, I remember 'em. I remember hating being in them because no one pays attention to anything that happened. But yeah, we both worked these pre-shows before we got anywhere... everyone does.

Voodoo finishes his donut off and grabs a bottle of water, twists the top off and takes a long swig. Cronos then focuses more of his attention to his old friend rather than keep it all on his food and quizzically asks…

Cronos Diamante: Say, I haven’t seen or heard from you all week… you even look a little wore out. That date work out great for you after hours, eh?

Voodoo chuckles as Cronos smirks and grabs a bottle of water himself.

Voodoo: Well, she was a freak alright. Not sure how long term it is, but once I realized she had toys far more interesting then a pair of handcuffs I got interested.

Voodoo jokes softly just as Cronos took his last bite of fruit and Cronos simply spits it out half-chewed. He missed Voodoo by half an inch then looks up at him with an indescribable stare.

Cronos Diamante: Did “I” stick you with the Fed or did the Fed stick “you” is the question.

Cronos laughs uncontrollably all the while Voodoo is standing there with his trademark Cheshire grin.

Voodoo: Wouldn't that be ironic. Birdie-boy chokes to death on health food.

Cronos Diamante: You ass.

Voodoo smirks and Cronos takes a long swig of his water.

Voodoo: Focus Birdie-boy. Save that shit for your opponent tomorrow... what was his name again?

Cronos’ demeanor changes completely. He squares himself away and “focus” is hardly the word to fit the description. The mere mention of his “opponent” brings a slightly reddened color to his face.

Cronos Diamante: Diego de Cardenas. His name is Diego de Cardenas. I swear on my mother’s grave, I’m going to beat that son of a bitch until he bleeds. Then I’m going to bleed him from the inside out! That boy at the end of our match will be bleeding internally.

Voodoo shakes his head.

Voodoo: Focus Birdie-boy, focus. You loose your temper just at the mere name and he's gonna abuse that. Take a deep breath and focus on him. NOW say what you're going to about the ass-hat.

Voodoo notes, before taking a swig from his own bottle of water. Cronos stares a hole right through his good friend before throwing his water bottle across the room. As it explodes against the wall, Cronos pushes himself away from the food and drink table.

Cronos Diamante: I am fucking focused!!! I told you what I’m going to do about that “ass-hat” as you so eloquently put it. I’m going to bleed him fucking dry. He wants to say he made the No Limits division in Legacy. Fine. No Limits is a fancy title for Hardcore division in my book. I’ve held a Hardcore Championship before and I’ve fought some wicked matches. You damn well remember them too. One was against you in, uh… uh… I don’t remember the name of the place and it doesn‘t actually matter. Point is he’s too fucking cocky and I’m going to use “that” to destroy HIM. Fuck a name. There’s nothing in a name but letters. Whoop-dee-fucking-do!

Voodoo simply lets Cronos vent for a moment.

Voodoo: You also know you get beat when you loose your temper. Seriously Birdie-boy, focus. Don't tell me you're going to rip him apart, think your way through the match. There's a reason wrestling has been compared to chess before, and why some of the best champs are often the best strategists and thinkers, not the biggest power-wrestlers around.

Cronos sighs and leans back against the table again and slips a grape from another tray into his mouth.

Cronos Diamante: I know. You’re right as usual. That’s why I’ve been losing so much lately. I tried to modify my wrestling style when I arrived on the Legacy scene. I’ve not been fighting the type of matches that once earned me the title of “The Cerebral Warrior” and “Ring General.” I just need to slow it down and fight my fight. Fight it the old way. Why try to change something that already works?

Voodoo chuckles.

Voodoo: Because, like me, you're getting older. The kids are stronger, faster, etc etc etc... you're SMARTER and more experienced. That's what you focus on. You outthink and outmaneuver them. Let them burn all that energy.... and then you take 'em down.

Cronos Diamante: That is true. I “have” been at this since ‘95. There’s a lot of wear and tear on this body. Sometimes I wonder how it is this flesh suit still holds up. Heh. But that’s exactly what I’m going to do. We went over this earlier.

Voodoo: Look Birdie Boy, I'd love to jack my jaw s'more at you, but I gotta get going if I wanna get that thing handled. I'll catchya later and we'll go over strats for the match... not that you should need any more...

Cronos nods his head and “does the secret hand shake” before shaking his finger at him.

Cronos Diamante: Don’t go getting into any unnecessary trouble, ya hear?

Voodoo: ME?!? Trouble?!? Naaaahhhhhh.

Voodoo laughs and gives a light wave before he dashes off at a light jog. Cronos leans back and takes another fruit sampler from the table and looks down at it, forking a slice of orange into his mouth.

Cronos Diamante: Rabbit food. Hmph.

Cronos shakes his head as road agent Trevor Washington approaches Cronos with a raised eyebrow.

Trevor Washington: Cronos. What was that about Voodoo handling something? Is it Legacy related?

Cronos simply shrugs his shoulders and grins.

Cronos Diamante: I don’t know what Charles is up to. I don’t even think he knows half the time. Why ask me?

Cronos brushes past him staying focusing his attention on his “rabbit food” then grins even wider when he is out of Trevor’s line of sight. He raises one hand in the air and waves behind him as if to say goodbye to Trevor then disappears completely when he rounds the corner. The footage returns back to the recap position.

Mark Perletta: Our second match of the night…

Joey C: If you can even call it a match…

Mark Perletta: …was between Hector Rodriguez and Johnny Rage.

Landon Savage: Rage’s big claim to fame is that he held a belt for a week back in 2001 in an organization run by Rob Belote, and now he’s been looking to make a comeback.

Mark Perletta: His opponent for tonight’s match, on the other hand, has talked very little about his previous accomplishments, and as of now we don’t know much about him other than to say he has been in an organization with Kevin Oppenheimer before.

Landon Savage: From what I can tell, having heard both of them mention one another and having seen the way they acted when they were booked to team up a couple weeks ago, the two of them don’t get along very well.

Joey C: I'm really starting to like Hector. He brings that no nonsense style to the ring and doesn't worry much about the style of offense he uses, he just focuses on the brutality.

Mark Perletta: And I'm sure after this match, Johnny Rage is probably wishing Hector was a little less intense. Let's take a look.

As soon as he hears the opening bell, Hector Rodriguez runs over and kicks Rage square in the chest, knocking him down to the mat. As Rage tries to get back up to his feet, he is immediately drilled with repeated axhandle shots to the back by Hector, who backs up a couple steps to let Johnny Rage return to a vertical base, and then Rodriguez runs in and turns Rage inside out with a wicked clothesline.

Landon Savage: Hector Rodriguez is getting off to a fast start, and Johnny Rage looks like a deer in the headlights!

Joey C: He's so stunned by the sudden flurry of offense, I wouldn't be surprised if Johnny doesn't turn this thing around.

Grabbing Johnny by the head, Hector lifts Rage to his feet, grabs him by the waistband with one hand and wraps the other arm around Rage's neck, then he lifts Johnny up off the mat into a modified vertical suplex and immediately pivots and tosses him a few feet away right onto the back of his neck, getting an "Oh!" reaction from the fans.

Mark Perletta: I can almost feel that one...

Joey C: You should be glad you can't feel it, because you'd probably still be sore 48 hours from now when it's pay per view time.

Moving in and standing over his opponent, Hector begins to lay stomps down onto the back of Rage’s neck and shoulders a few times before reaching down and bringing him back to his feet. Hector takes Rage over to the corner, lifts up into a vertical suplex and then steps up onto the bottom rope, hops upwards and drops his feet back onto the mat, dropping Rage's neck and shoulders onto the top turnbuckle with a brainbuster.

Mark Perletta: Johnny Rage falls out onto the ring apron, and if he's lucky he'll get himself counted out and avoid any further damage.

Landon Savage: From the looks of things, I don't think that's going to happen.

Reaching between the middle rope and top rope, Hector grabs Rage by the head and partially pulls his torso back into the ring. With Rage doubled over the middle rope with his legs still outside the ring, Hector hooks each of Johnny's arms over the top rope. Having secured his opponent into a prone position, Hector backs up across the ring, hits the ropes and comes off with a bit of momentum. He picks up speed as he crosses the ring and just before he gets to the ropes he jumps and drills his opponent with a kick to the head. As the crowd gasps, Rage falls into the ring, limp.

Joey C: It's all over! Hector has dominated Johnny Rage!

Landon Savage: He's going for the pinfall, but this is basically academic at this point.

One...

Two...

Three.

Josephina Colbert: Here is your winner... Hector Rodriguez!

Landon Savage: I'd say that was a good singles match debut for Hector, but that wasn't exactly a match, that was more like a car wreck.

Mark Perletta: Whatever it was, Johnny Rage was on the wrong side of it.

Joey C: This guy is coming into LEGACY without much hype surrounding him, but sooner than later Hector is going to start getting a lot of people's attention, and I can tell you this - he's got Johnny Rage's attention.

Mark Perletta: Our next match of the evening is a special open challenge by Percy Wright.

Landon Savage: I went into this match thinking Percy Wright was just another guy who was looking to make his mark on this organization and get noticed, and I thought he was setting himself up for a tough fall depending on who accepted the challenge.

Joey C: It wasn't the smartest idea in the world, but it certainly created a lot of buzz for Percy heading into this weekend, so let's see how it paid off.

Landon Savage: More importantly, let's see who accepted the challenge.

Already standing in the ring with a mic in his hand, Percy Wright addresses the fans wearing a coat and tie, not typical wrestling attire by any means.

Percy Wright: Thank you for the wonderful welcome Legacy fans. Those beer stains on my brand new suit will come out real nice…you freaking animals. I don’t know about you people, you are a disgrace to the wrestling community. Throwing beer on a poor gentleman making his début, with basically his hands tied behind his back. I extend my open challenge to the Legacy roster and no one responds. So I have no clue who I will be facing tonight. I am handicapped, no time to train or prepare for any individual that will summon the courage to walk from behind that curtain, to saunter to this ring to face me, little ol Percy Wright.

Percy takes off his coat and tosses it over the ring ropes, and begins to remove his tie…

Percy Wright: I figured while I was waiting, I would get comfortable since im getting 15 minutes of your time, and if no one comes out here, I guess I will get to talk on and on about everything you don’t want to hear about. How I can compare each and everyone one of you in this arena to the things I flushed down my commode this morning. You all think you “know” what is going to happen. One of your hero’s is going to come streaking into this ring and beat me from pillar to post, but I have an update for you all. Grab your mobile phones and get this text message, your not going to see that. No one in the back has the ability to summon up the courage to face me. Just as I have no idea who they are, they have no idea who I am. They have no idea the pain I can cause them…

Percy has his tie off and tosses it on his jacket and begins to remove his shirt, showing off a ironed white undershirt. Percy rolls out of the ring and gets steals the chair from the bell ringer and tosses it into the ring. Rolling back into the ring Percy sets up the chair and sits down.

Percy Wright: Since I didn’t see anyone coming out here to face the great Percy Wright, I figure ill start you all off with a story. It was 1992 and Percy Wright was 14-year-old little boy looking to make an impact. I made an impact back in 1992, but it wasn’t an impact that you creations would be impressed by. I didn’t have hardcore action with the local prostitute, which by the way, all the women here in attendance look just like the local prostitutes from my hometown. I made an impact all right…

You know it's hard out here for a pimp! Blares out from the speakers and the fans who were booing Percy Wright, especially the women, are now cheering and screaming for the Ladies Man, Tim Jones, who has been absent from Legacy TV for a little bit. He comes out with no shirt on and just a pair of black jeans, drinking a Budweiser and holding a microphone…

Tim Jones: Percy Wright…would you please just shut the fuck up? Actually, fuck please, you need to shut the fuck up before I come down there and make you shut the fuck up.

Percy stands from his chair and kicks it over…

Percy Wright:You here to answer my challenge? Then come down here and give it your best shot, but I highly doubt you have what it takes to take out Percy Wright. And you know I am right, because Percy Wright is always Wright!

Percy motions to Tim Jones to bring his ass to the ring, and Jones takes a long chug of his beer, and behind the cheers of the fans, he runs down to the ring and dives in, only to be met by a quick boot to the head by Percy Wright, but Tim Jones gets right up and spits the beer that he was holding in his mouth right in the eyes of Percy Wright. Percy rolls around on the mat…

Tim Jones: “You know you son of a bitch, you made me waste a very tasty drink right there. That should be settling into my stomach and getting me to a place of happiness…I am just going to have to kick your ass now you long winded son of a bitch.

Tim drops his microphone to the ground and goes to kick Percy in the head, but Percy grabs his foot and flips Jones right on to his back. Percy uses his undershirt to get some of the beer out of his eyes, and then as he smells his shirt, he rips it off in disgust and throws it at Tim Jones and Percy looks sick to his stomach from the smell of the beer. Percy grabs Tim by the back of his hair and takes his free hand and begins to pound lefts into the back of the skull of Tim Jones. Jones rolls over and blocks a punch and flips Percy and begins to pound punches into Percy’s face. Jones stands up and pulls Percy to his feet, but Percy falls down on one knee and delivers a low blow to Jones.

Mark Perletta: Well now we see how it's going to be...

Joey C: Percy might always be Wright, but it doesn't look like he always has to play by the rules.

Percy takes Jones by the arm and whips him into the buckle and comes in hard with a flying close line, and as Jones staggers off the buckle, Percy rappels into the ropes and hits a flying bulldog to take the Ladies Man down to the mat in a heap. Percy’s eyes are wild. He grabs at Tim and pulls him back to his feet, takes him by the back of the head…guides him into the corner and WHAM! Face right off the turnbuckle, WHAM face again off the turnbuckle. Tim falls down and his head and neck fall on the second turnbuckle…. Percy runs to the far ropes…and back…DROPKICK right though the ropes. Jones tumbles to the outside and Percy Wright stands up and smiles and waves at the fans.

Mark Perletta: I think we're getting a good look at the type of person Percy Wright is... and I'm betting he doesn't even care that the fans are booing him right now.

Joey C: I think it's great that he's destroying an over-rated fan favorite who, by all rights, shouldn't get cheers for the things he does.

Jones is lying on his back on the mat below and Percy looks down and spits right down on Tim Jones. Percy scales the ropes and gets on the top turnbuckle…. and leaps off looking for a huge splash but gets all mat! Jones moved! Jones moved! Percy is holding his stomach in pain as Tim slowly gets to his feet…he is looking around for a weapon to even the score with Percy Wright and gets his hands on a stop sign that he took from under the ring. Percy slowly getting to his feet…and Jones comes around the corner…

WACK!

Stop sign to the face and that seemed to have opened up a cut on Percy Wright. Blood is flowing from his face and Jones tosses him into the ring, right next to the steal chair that Percy was sitting on earlier. Tim walks around to the other side of the ring, and slides in, with Percy still down…Tim singles to the fans that its time for the SNAFU!

Mark Perletta: Things have turned around for Tim Jones big time, and if he can hit the SNAFU superkick, this place is going to be electric as Tim Jones shoves Percy's teeth down his throat!

Joey C: Don't count your chickens...

Tim Jones slaps his foot against the mat…one…twice…Percy is slowly getting to his feet…Tim Jones comes running in, swings his foot up for the snafu, and Percy ducks…and CONNECTS WITH THE CHAIR TO JONES KNEE! Percy grabbed the chair and in one fluid motion took out Jones! Jones falls to the bottom rope like before with his neck lying on the ropes. Percy throws the chair to the outside and begins to ascend to the top rope…. and standing there for a second, Percy extends his arms to the fans and leaps from the top turnbuckle and LANDS HIS LEG RIGHT ACROSS THE BACK OF JONES HEAD! Jones neck gets slammed into the ring ropes and he is holding his throat in pain. Percy yanks him off the ropes and brings him to the center of the ring…and goes for a cover…

One….

Two….

Three!!!

Josephina Colbert: Here is your winner... Percy Wright!

Percy looks down at Jones and sees that Jones had puked up on himself a bit from the impact, and Percy gets a sick look on his face…and boots Tim right in the knee that he hit with the chair! That is Jones surgically repaired knee! Percy Wright lays a few more boots into that knee, and then he stomps on it! The bell is ringing for Percy to stop, the referee attempts to intervene, but Percy throws him to the mat. Percy goes for the microphone…

Percy Wright: “Legacy…this is lesson one, don’t mess with me when I am wright, and I am always wright!”

Percy grabs Tim Jones by the legs and drags him to the ring post and he slides out the ring and pulls Tim under the ropes and grabbing both legs…he pulls Tim Jones right into the poll, the agony on Jones face is evident as he got his genitals crushed by the metal poll. Percy Wright then takes Tim’s leg, and wraps the other one around it, holding that there, he gets one foot up on the ring apron…drops it down…FIGURE FOUR ON THE RING POLL! FIGURE FOUR! Tim Jones is screaming in agony, as Percy is hanging upside down, holding Jones bad knee in a horrible position, Jones is flaying his arms in pain, looking for anything to try and get out of the hold, his arms are slamming off the mat, tapping out in pain…the screams are agonizing to hear.

Percy pulls even harder, his face contorted in anger, pain and determination. Jones is screaming, trying to pull his knee out. Three referees are running down to the ring, trying to stop Percy Wright’s horrible attack on Tim Jones, suddenly Tim Jones screaming gets louder as we hear an audible pop. The pure look of pain on Jones face is horrific to see, as the referees finally get Percy off of Jones and get him to break the hold. Percy looks over at Tim…Percy with streaks of blood running down his lips…and Jones is lying in a heap, holding one arm over his head, shaking in absolute pain…one hand holding his knee. Two referees are escorting Percy to the back as the fans continue to jeer and throw beer at him. Another referee is in the ring, and he is motioning to the back, and as Percy turns around to absorb the scene, we see two paramedics running by with a gurney, and this huge smile breaks out over his face. Percy looks into the camera and holds up one finger and looks around at the fans, who aren’t booing him as much anymore, as they are more in concern to Tim Jones, who is still shaking in pain, tears running down his face…he looks down and sees Percy Wright…and Percy sees him, and Percy turns his back on the injured Tim Jones and walks under the curtain to the back.

Tim is still shaking in the ring, and the paramedics get a brace on knee…and slowly move him to get on to the gurney, and the crowd is silenced as Tim Jones is strapped on to the gurney and rolled out of the arena to a waiting ambulance…

Mark Perletta: I apologize to our viewing audience. For the past couple minutes I didn't do my job as an announcer... but what I just saw Percy Wright do... It was beyond words for me.

Joey C: You need to lighten up a bit, learn to appreciate things like what we just saw happen in the ring.

Landon Savage: You clearly don't know Perletta as well as I thought you would. How many years have you two worked together?

Mark Perletta: Wait, appreciate what just happened? Depending on the severity of Tim Jones' knee injury, Percy Wright might have just ended The Ladies Man's career.

Joey C: What we just saw was quite possibly the big in-ring debut of a guy who has the potential to do big things here in LEGACY. He showed considerable spark and desire...

Landon Savage: ...as he brutally took out Tim Jones the first time he stepped into a LEGACY ring. We know, we get it. Joe, you enjoyed what went on in the ring because you're a sick individual. Perletta, you despised what went on in the ring because you're an over-sensitive baby. How did you make it this long in this business?

Mark Perletta: I...

Landon Savage: Nevermind, let's just move on with the evening's event.

Mark Perletta: Our next match... I've lost count of how many matches we've had so far tonight... it's the only tag team match of the evening.

Joey C: And it's been something that has been brewing for a little while now.

Landon Savage: Jerry Starr and Allen Franks have proven to be a better tag team pairing than I originally thought they were going to be, Long Island Hardcore hasn't been doing near as well here as they've done elsewhere. Mix those two things together with the fact that they both want to be the team to knock The Diabolik off the pedistal they're on and take home the most sought after World Tag Team Titles in the business today, and that makes this a match I've been waiting to see.

Mark Perletta: Well Jared Walsh and C.J. Nelson have even more motivation to win this match due to two singles matches, one on STRIFE 23 and one on STRIFE 25, each of them involving a member of the Canuckin' Cowboys getting a victory over a member of Long Island Hardcore.

Joey C: And now C.J. Nelson and Jared Walsh have the opportunity to stomp down on Jerry Starr and Allen Franks in this match and stop all the silly buzz they've generated, and the natural order of things can be restored.

Landon Savage: Let's see how things played out as these four men stepped into the ring.

Nelson has Starr with a giant bear hug in the middle of the ring, when Starr begins nailing him in the mid-section with some loose knee shots. They have little effect, but Nelson feels a few of them as he loosens his grip on the Elite One. Nelson’s arms pry apart just enough for Starr to slip out, and he immediately hits the floor with a basement dropkick to Nelson’s knee. Nelson drops to a knee and Franks sees the opportunity from the sidelines. He climbs the top rope, motions for his partner to move out of the way, leaps off, and NAILS Nelson right in the back of the head with a flying crescent kick!

Joey C: Hello ref!!!! Double teaming!!!!

Mark Perletta: Oh PLEASE. Long Island Hardcore has been double teaming the Cowboys all through this match.

Landon Savage: Looks like the Mother Canuckers have finally found some offense...

Jared Walsh enters the ring as Franks gets up from the mat, and Starr cuts off the smaller of the two Long Islanders. Starr lays some fists into Walsh, rocking him backwards into the ropes. Starr looks at his partner across the ring and signals something to him, and suddenly Franks begins measuring up CJ Nelson who is turning over and getting on all fours. Starr whips Walsh forward, right at the exact same time that Franks runs and leaps onto the back of Nelson. Franks leaps OFF of Nelson’s back, and lands both of his legs across the shoulders of Jared Walsh, whose momentum from the Irish whip DRILLS him over in a perfectly executed hurricanrana from Allen Franks!

Joey C: Disqualify ‘em ref!

Landon Savage: If Starr and Franks aren’t careful, they very well could be...

Mark Perletta: Referee is definitely losing control of this one... but the ‘Boys are on FIRE!

Nelson is already up on his feet, holding his back after Franks pushing all his body weight off of it to hit that double team maneuver. Walsh is still on the mat, holding his head after getting drilled into the mat. Starr and Franks see Nelson on his feet and charge forward, but Nelson slaps both of his hands around their necks, lifts up with all of his might, and quakes the ring with a thunderous one-handed chokeslam on both Starr and Franks!!

Joey C: Chokeslammed!!!! This one’s over!!!

Nelson pushes Franks out of the ring, and goes for the cover on Starr, but right before the ref counts, he points to Walsh who is still in the ring.

Joey C: Count!!! What are you waiting for?!

Mark Perletta: Walsh is still in the ring... that’s some good officiating right there.

Landon Savage: CJ should’ve pushed Jared out of the ring too... that was unfortunate.

Calgary Carl squeals on the outside for Starr to get up, almost as winded from watching on as the wrestlers are from wrestling. Frustrated, Nelson gets up off the mat, and ruggedly grabs Starr by his hair, pulling him up to the mat as well. Going behind Starr, CJ locks in a full nelson.

Joey C: Full Nelson from CJ Nelson!

Landon Savage: An actual full nelson from somebody named Nelson... I think that’s a first in wrestling history.

Lifting Starr up, Nelson DRIVES Nelson down to the mat with a booming full nelson slam. Seeing Walsh finally slide out of the ring, he goes for the cover, and hooks a leg..

One!

Two!!

Franks out of NOWHERE makes the save!!!

Nelson angrily gets up off the mat, as Franks climbs back to the apron. Walsh starts heading towards his corner, as Nelson has Starr in a side headlock, putting toque on the neck in an almost inhumane way. Once Walsh makes it to his side’s turnbuckle and tag rope, Nelson begins dragging Starr over to the corner, where he makes a tag to Jared Walsh.

Jared springboards on the ropes, and then carefully free falls down onto Starr’s ribs with an exact and accurate head-butt, sending him down to the mat. Nelson heads to the outside, and Walsh immediately sends Starr to his feet. Slapping Starr a couple of times in the face, Walsh then whips him into the ropes... where Allen Franks makes the blind tag!!!

Starr on the rebound, Walsh goes for a jumping calf kick, but Starr ducks out of the way. Starr continues onto the ropes, and NAILS his running front dropkick to the face on an unsuspecting CJ Nelson!

Mark Perletta: Starrstruck!

Landon Savage: Nelson got knocked off the apron... and out of consciousness!

After nailing the knock out front dropkick, Starr climbs through the middle and top rope to the outside apron. Turning around, he motions for Walsh to come at him, who caught Starr sending Nelson down to the outside just as he turned around. Walsh takes the bait and charges forward, but Starr ducks between the middle and bottom rope, nailing Walsh in the abdomen with a head butt. Walsh buckles back, and Franks comes from behind with a waist-lock!

Franks lifts Walsh off the mat about a foot, like he’s going to drop back with a German suplex, but holds him there for a split second. Starr springboards up, somersaults forward, and CONNECTS with a flipping falling neckbreaker while Franks snaps backwards with a bridging German suplex!!!

Joey C: Oh my God!!!

Landon Savage: Springboard flipping neckbreaker, German suplex COMBO!!

Mark Perletta: I don’t even know what they call that maneuver, folks!!! The way Jared Walsh landed on his neck was SICK!!!

Keeping his fingers locked and shoulders up in the bridge, the referee counts this one as it’s academic...

One!

Two!!

Three!!!

Josephina Colbert: The winners of this match... Allen Franks... Jerry Starr... The CANUCKIN’.... COWBOYS!!!!

Landon Savage: I can't believe it, Jerry Starr and Allen Franks ACTUALLY beat Long Island Hardcore in a meaningful match!

Joey C: This is making me a little sick. These guys who wear ass-less chaps...

Mark Perletta: Actually only Allen Franks wears the ass-less chaps, Jerry Starr doesn't... Though I guess Allen's not the only one who wears champs in the team, Calgary Carl also has a pair...

Joey C: Whatever! The point is... the Canuckin' Canadians shouldn't have any reason to be considered a better tag team than Long Island Hardcore... and yet here we are, having to pretend like they do.

Landon Savage: We don't actually have to pretend, Joe, they got this win fair and square.

Backstage

We're walking backstage with Anararchy and the in arena crowd begins to boo mercilessly. T-Rex looks confused, turning to Arch Angel.

T-Rex: Dat for us?

Angel nods. T-Rex actually smiles a little bit which makes the crowd boo more, and he shrugs.

T-Rex: At least they recognize us.

Angel laughs hard at this as the two continue backstage. Angel looks a little wary as if they're doing something wrong, he turns to Rex.

Arch Angel: Man, you think this is a good idea?

T-Rex: Dude. I want to see if they want a tag team. Its not like we're Loc's fucking 24-7 man slaves or something.

Arch Angel nods.

Arch Angel: I just don't want to get fired. Remember what happened back in 94.

Rex growls.

T-Rex: Man, I've told you for like fourteen-

Arch Angel: Thirteen... THIRTEEN long, long years.

T-Rex: Who-gives-ashit? How was I supposed to know she was the booker's daughter?

Arch Angel: She was seventeen!

T-Rex: Whoa whoa whoa. Slow it down there, Chris. No files charged. No shenanigans there. Yes I didn't know her age. But those tits... they were at least 22!

Arch Angel: And... they got us fired!

T-Rex: Yeah... I'd say "sorry", but I'd prolly do it again.

Arch Angel lets out an annoyed sigh but points to the office door of Smith Cartwright and the two head over. He grabs the handle, it doesn't budge.

T-Rex: Locked?

Arch Angel turns to him sarcastically.

Arch Angel: Are we IN his office?

T-Rex shrugs.

T-Rex: Maybe you're just a pussy.

Angel looks like he's about to explode, but Intern Avery George walks up to the members of Anarchy.

Avery George: Can I do something for you two fellas?

The two eye up the young intern.

T-Rex: Man you're like 16

Avery George: I'm 20.

Arch Angel shakes his head.

Arch Angel: Teddy, we're totally going to do some "Age Guaging" flash cards in our free time. Listen, little guy-

Avery George: Avery.

T-Rex: Sure. Listen, teeny-bopper. We were wondering if we could get us a tag match?

Avery sizes the two up thinking what we're all thinking... and makes the mistake of saying it.

Avery George: Aren't you a little OLD?

A fire shoots through the two men's eyes and T-Rex goes to grab the young intern but Arch Angel snatches his tag team partner before any real damage can come. Avery looks scared as he backs away attempting to smooth his mess up.

Avery George: I-I-I-I mean... listen. Sorry. I just meant, I thought you guys were just working for Loco. Watching over the Title. I-I-I-IF you want I'll say something to Mr. Cartwright as SOON as he gets here.

This actually brings a smile to T-Rex's face, and Angel finally lets go.

T-Rex: Thanks, bro. Just remember, when you're dealing with Anarchy? --- *Huge dramatic pause* --- You're gonna get BURNED!

Arch Angel sighs.

Arch Angel: Dude... that doesn't make sense. We're not Arsonists.

T-Rex: You got anything better?

Arch Angel: ummm....

T-Rex: Didn't think so.

The two begin to walk away, but T-Rex turns back to where Avery is standing starting to look more relaxed. When he yells, Avery jumps.

T-Rex: Remember to tell him kid! I want to fight something one of these days.

He sizes up the intern.

T-Rex: Don't matter who.

Avery gulps as Rex roars, Angel tries to smooth things over with a little tact.

Arch Angel: He's just joking Avery. Don't sweat him. He's a big, dumb, oafy, teddy Bear.

The two walk away and we cut back to the recap position.

Mark Perletta: We've got two matches left on tonight's card, and both of them should be good.

Landon Savage: Yeah, yeah, no need to hype up the matches too much, they kinda sell themselves. Our next match involves Katsuro Yoshida taking on Alex Harmston in a rare occasion where a match which originally took place on an episode of STRIFE takes place on a much bigger show.

Joey C: I don't think it's all that uncommon. Diego de Cardenas is taking on Cronos Diamante, and that match took place a few weeks ago on an episode of STRIFE. Then there's also...

Landon Savage: Okay, okay, fine, but this should be good. Alex Harmston got a win in their first match, back at STRIFE 23, and now Katsuro's getting his rematch.

Mark Perletta: Katsuro already had one rematch, but that was a tag match back at STRIFE 24, but if I recall correctly, he was on the losing side of that match. Alex Harmston's a talented competitor, Katsuro Yoshida has already had one title reign here in LEGACY with the No Limits Title, so the winner has a lot to gain from this match.

Joey C: After talking to him earlier this week, I can guarantee you that Alex Harmston is more than ready for this match. He put the training time in, he did his research, and he's got plenty of motivation.

Landon Savage: I realize this is a webcast show, but we don't have all the time in the world for this. How about we stop talking about the match and start watching it?

Katsuro charges in for a clothesline but Harmston ducks underneath it, turns and drills Katsuro with a backwards kick to the back of the thigh. As Yoshida turns around, Harmston is on him yet again, lifting Katsuro up and slamming his knee straight down on the mat. As Katsuro rolls around on the mat clutching his knee in agony, Harmston moves in like a lion hunting his prey. Harmston grabs the foot of Katsuro and attempts to drag him to the corner, but he's kicked away. Katsuro springs to his feet with a wince from the pain his knee has suffered recently, but shakes it off and clotheslines the smaller Harmston to the outside. Before anybody has time to think, Katsuro is on the top rope and soon hops to the top rope and executes a shooting start plancha onto the downed Harmston, all the while slightly favoring one leg.

Mark Perletta: The native of Harmston of Arizona has been focusing strictly on Katsuro's knees and legs all match and for the most part everything has gone to plan.

Landon Savage: Katsuro has been forced to rely heavily on his ability to wrestle on the ground, but as you saw there, he can still pull off some aerial attacks.

Katsuro, acting as if it didn't hurt him, jumps to his feet and throws Harmston in the ring. Katsuro slides under the bottom rope right after him and kicks Harmston in the back of the head to weaken Harmston's neck for Katsuro's signature endgame move. He pulls Harmston to his feet and pulls him down into a victory roll pin.

One…

two...

kick out!

Katsuro again drags Harmston down into a victory roll but before it can be fully locked in Alex uses his upper body strength to lift Katsuro to his feet and quickly crosses Katsuro's arms and executes a perfect Japanese Ocean Cyclone Suplex which is then bridged for the pin.

One…

kick out!!!

Mark Perletta: Neither one of these men are giving an inch! This is one incredible match.

Landon Savage: We knew it would be, Marky. Joey over here is enjoying it so much he can't speak.

Joey C: Somebody say my name?

The two announcers laugh as Harmston locks Katsuro in a heel hook submission hold. Katsuro struggles to free himself from the icy clutches of Alexander Harmston but he can't seem to shake him. Out of sheer desperation Katsuro launches at the ropes and is able to grab hold of the bottom one. Harmston holds on for another six seconds before he is forced to break. Harmston simply stands back laughing then clotheslines Katsuro down to the mat HARD right in front of the ring post.

Mark Perletta: That shook the ring.

Joey C: That had to hurt. I think I felt that. What is he…?

Harmston in rare form tonight begins climbing the top rope for a frog splash; probably the only top rope move he ever uses. When he reaches the top rope, Katsuro is on his feet and he charges at the ropes running up them and hits Harmston with an enziguri ONCE AGAIN sending Harmston the outside and this time his full weight landed on his shoulder. The crowd begins to chant… LEGACY! LEGACY!

Landon Savage: THAT hurts!

Katsuro jumps to the outside and throws Harmston into the ring. He jumps to the ring apron then to the top rope and back flips into the ring at Harmston who manages to make it to his feet and AMAZINGLY catches Katsuro and turns the potential attack into a Gory Special. He's got the submission locked in tightly. Katsuro throws a blind shot at Harmston which misses and Harmston locks him in harder. Katsuro throws another shot and he barely connects but just enough for Katsuro to escape with a sunset flip pinning Harmston.

One… Two… Kick out!

Both men are showing fatigue now as they're both to their feet at the same time breathing somewhat heavy. The two men abandoned their game plans for the moment and begin wailing at each other, throwing left and rights with some connecting and some not. Harmston begins to edge Katsuro out and locks in a standing dragon sleeper which is soon about to be turned into a Reverse DDT.

Mark Perletta: This doesn't look good.

Joey C: I hope he drops him on his head and breaks his head open. He can flail those arms all he wants. But that… NO!

When Harmston attempts the Reverse DDT, he is slammed with an elbow to the ribs and Katsuro turns to the side using the ropes to flip over Harmston completely and bring Harmston down with a springboard reverse DDT!!! Katsuro wastes no time in going for the pin, but before he gets there Harmston kicks him in the knee just barely seeing it coming. Katsuro drops like a ton of bricks and both men are on the ground for a four count until they're both up at the same time.

Landon Savage: They just refuse to stay down and with the exception of at the beginning of this match, this entire battle has been dead even.

Mark Perletta: You can say that again, Landon. This is an amazing fight. These two men are giving it their all and it shows.

Joey C: Bah. Come on Harmston!!!

Katsuro hits Harmston with a standing side kick to the gut which doubles him over and Katsuro whips him into the ropes. Harmston ducks the clothesline and hooks Katsuro's arm and brings him down with a neck breaker! Harmston up and begins kicking Katsuro's knee repeatedly until he doesn't think he can take it anymore and he lifts Katsuro to his feet. Harmston attempts a brain buster but he's met with several shots to the bread basket and Katsuro tries to reverse it into his own but his knee won't allow it and he drops down in agony.

Joey C: Ha-ha. His knee won't hold up.

Harmston picks Katsuro up and kicks him in the gut then attempts a DDT only to be denied with a few kidney shots. Katsuro rushes Harmston back into the corner and runs back to the far corner. In a dead run, Katsuro goes for the corner clothesline but Harmston ducks and lifts a knee into his gut. As Katsuro stumbles back, he signals the crowd that it's Shake the Foundation time and he's met with boos.

Joey C: It's over! Katsuro is going down. Good effort but that doesn't count.

Harmston reaches Katsuro and adds two very strategically placed kicks to Katsuro's knees which sends him forward into the vile arms of Alexander Harmston. Harmston starts his process for Shake the Foundation and NO! Katsuro reverses it into a Crucifix Power bomb which he barely finished with. His knees gave out on him right as he was throwing him down.

Mark Perletta: Can he make it there to pin him!?

Joey C: No. He can't even move! Look at him.

Landon Savage: He's crawling toward him. There he is… he's there… pin… He hooks the leg…

One…

Two…

THREE!!!!

Harmston is out cold as Katsuro makes it to one knee and is helped to his feet by Josephina Colbert of all people. She raises his hand in victory as the traditional Japanese music begins to play.

Josephina Colbert: Your winner tonight… Katsuro Yooooshidaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Mark Perletta: Katsuro Yoshida gets revenge for what happened on STRIFE 23 as he picks up a big win over Alex Harmston, who is now yet to win a match during a LEGACY show during a LEGACY PPV weekend...

Joey C: And it's complete crap. Alex Harmston is part of a new wave of competitors in our business, he's talented enough to be the World Champion someday, and he loses to Katsuro Yoshida? Something has to be wrong here. He has to be sick or something...

Landon Savage: Looks to me like he just came up short, Joe. You understand that concept, don't you?

Joey C: Yeah, your last girlfriend explained it to me.

Mark Perletta: Alright, now, boys, let's not go down that road. Both Katsuro Yoshida and Alex Harmston are talents, and they both might be big parts of the future of LEGACY.

Landon Savage: Yeah, though at this point it looks like Katsuro has put himself into a better position for a title shot.

Joey C: It would be a travesty if Katsuro Yoshida gets a title shot before Alex Harmston just because of the outcome of tonight's match...

Mark Perletta: Alright, boys, let's move on because it’s come time for the main event match of the evening, a contest some people are looking forward to more than some of the matches set to take place on Sunday on the actual pay per view.

Landon Savage: If there were going to be an eleventh match on the DESTINED FOR GREATNESS card, I have no doubt that this would’ve been it.

Joey C: I’m not surprised so many people are excited for it. Kevin Oppenheimer is an interesting young talent who clearly has a lot to prove and has the desire to go out there and make a name for himself, and Dan Stein has set himself apart as one of the top stars in this organization over the past year.

Mark Perletta: He was moments away from a World Title win on a couple occasions, he did great things with the Tao of Valor Championship, he held the World Tag Team Titles… Dan Stein is beginning to look like he might be able to do it all when he’s motivated.

Landon Savage: Seeing his reaction to Kevin Oppenheimer’s challenge for this match, it looks like Dan Stein is properly motivated, and a lot of the people who are looking forward to this match obviously can see just how badly Dan Stein wants to pick up this victory.

Joey C: Don’t discount Oppenheimer’s desire to walk away with the win here tonight. Dan Stein keeps trying to take credit for Oppenheimer’s training, but Kevin learned from a bunch of different teachers, Stein being the last of them, and now he wants to prove that he’s got enough talent to defeat a superstar like Dan Stein.

Mark Perletta: Well it certainly made for an interesting main event, so how about we get down to it, shall we?

After blocking a hard right hand, Stein twists around one of Kevin’s arms and then sends a roundhouse into his ribs, then spins fully around, jumping and sending in a kick that drills Kevin in the mouth, rocking him backwards. Oppenheimer hits the ropes, pivots, charges in and levels Stein with a roaring elbow, turning Dan inside out. Lifting The Lights up off the mat, Oppenheimer sets Stein up and goes for a powerbomb, but when Dan gets to the height of the hold, he fires in with hard right hands, stopping Kevin from hitting the powerbomb, giving himself an opportunity to throw his legs to the sides of Kevin’s shoulders. As soon as Stein’s feet hit the mat, he leaps into the air with a high dropkick, flipping himself backwards when his feet hit Oppenheimer in the chest, knocking him backwards.

Landon Savage: Nice back-flip dropkick by Dan Stein, and while he got plenty of elevation on it, he’s lucky to have avoided that powerbomb.

Mark Perletta: If Oppenheimer had hit that move, Dan Stein might’ve been in a world of hurt.

Joey C: A “world of hurt”? Is that a technical term?

Dan Stein grabs Kevin Oppenheimer by the wrist and attempts to send him into the ropes, but Oppenheimer reverses the irish whip. On the return Dan Stein leapfrogs Oppenheimer and stops his momentum. When Kevin turns around to look for his opponent, Stein takes the big man down to the mat with a double leg takedown. Planting one foot, Dan Stein hops up from his position down near Kevin’s knees and puts himself up near his opponent’s head, locking Oppenheimer into a front facelock chokehold.

Mark Perletta: Nice series of moves by Dan Stein to not only shift the momentum in his favor, but to lock his opponent into a hold that’s going to wear him down, increasing his odds of keeping the momentum after the hold breaks. From the looks of it, though, that’s a chokehold, which means Stein’s basically cheating right now.

Joey C: Oh who even cares about cheating anymore, right? If Oppenheimer is such a great talent, he’ll find a way to not get choked out. If Dan Stein’s the better man, he might prove that right here if he can force his former student to tap. Simple as that, Marky.

Landon Savage: I don’t know if it’s that simple, but the referee isn’t disqualifying Stein for that hold so it must not be a complete choke, though I’m guessing it’s some sort of variation.

Slowly, Oppenheimer gets his knees underneath him, one by one, being careful not to give up too much position to Dan Stein for fear of being completely choked out. Once he gets into a position where he can get enough leverage, Kevin sends a hard right hand into Stein’s rib. A second one loosens Dan’s grip, and a third one breaks up the hold. Getting one of his feet underneath him, Oppenheimer drills Stein with a headbutt, immediately reaching out and grabbing Stein, not letting him fall to the mat, and he follows up the headbutt with a European uppercut.

Landon Savage: This could be it! This is how Kevin Oppenheimer likes to set up for that finisher of his…

Mark Perletta: If he could score a victory over Dan Stein right here, that’s instant recognition all across LEGACY, and this move could do it!

Grabbing Dan’s head underneath his arm, Oppenheimer lifts Stein up into a vertical suplex position, holding him high above his head as he pivots. Just as he goes to put Stein’s ankles on either side of the top turnbuckle to set up for his finisher, Kevin’s attempt is blocked as Dan Stein pulls him in and drills Oppenheimer in the jaw with a well placed knee.

Landon Savage: What a shot with that knee!

Mark Perletta: Great countering strike by Dan Stein, and this might be the opening he needs!

Oppenheimer stumbles back a few steps, leaving an opening for Stein, who gets his feet on the mat and immediately hops up onto the second rope, then moving up to the top rope. Not wasting a moment, Stein springs off, leaping right at Oppenheimer. He swings his left leg up… he whips his right leg around towards the back of Kevin’s head… enzuigiri!

Mark Perletta: That’s THE LIGHTS! Oppenheimer hits the mat like a ton of bricks… and he’s out!!

Landon Savage: Stein with the pinfall attempt…

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!!

Josephina Colbert: Here is your winner of tonight’s main event… “The Lights”… Dan… Stein!!!

Mark Perletta: The battle between teacher and student has finished, at least for now, and the teacher has won.

Joey C: I still maintain that Dan Stein didn't teach Kevin Oppenheimer everything he knows.

Landon Savage: Regardless, Oppenheimer wasn't able to get a win over Stein here tonight, so if he wants to keep moving up towards a title shot of some sort, he's going to have to figure out another way to do so.

Mark Perletta: Even though he didn't win, this match still did good things for Kevin Oppenheimer. He showed a ton of promise in this match, and he did so against one of the top competitors in LEGACY.

Joey C: It probably didn't help his cause that Dan Stein has seen the moves in Kevin's offensive arsenal before back when they trained together, and so Stein had him very well scouted.

Landon Savage: I hate to break this to you folks, but that's all the time we've got for tonight's pre-show. The six matches we've brought to you were good, but the ones coming up on Sunday night, less than 48 hours from now, should be even better.

Mark Perletta: I can't wait, and if you don't have the privilege of having tickets to the sold out event, you should definitely pay to watch it from the comfort of your living room.

Joey C: Or some sports bar somewhere... or at a friend's house...

Mark Perletta: Whatever you do, just don't miss it. We'll see you again in about 44 hours. Until then... good night, and good luck.
