LRW Wrestling Contract Signing from LRW Wrestling on Vimeo.
A Hostile Corporate Takeover By UCW Wrestling?
Well, here it is, ladies and gentlemen -- the historic contract signing for the LRW Wrestling Super-Star Championship pitting the reigning champion, Fratboy Francis Franklin aka "Triple F" against the challenger, Shane Saunders.The most shocking portion of this video occurs at the 2:18 mark when Shane brags that, after winning the LRW title, he plans to defend the belt in Philadelphia, in UCW Wrestling videos, with all of the profits going to Ethan Axel Andrews (and, of course, UCW founder Michael Bodyslam).
Shane then points to the star embroidered on his wrestling trunks and says, "This is just like a star on the Hollywood Boulevard Walk of Fame," (or at least that's what we think he said -- Shane often speaks as though he has a mouthful of marbles -- maybe someone should give this kid elocution lessons) and then demands to henceforth be known as "Hollywood" Shane Saunders. (The LRW Locker Room page has been updated to reflect this egotistical metamorphosis.)
Naturally, if Shane is victorious in the upcoming match, LRW Wrestling will cease to exist as we know it today. LRW Wrestling will become a mere subsidiary of UCW Wrestling (sort of like the WWE absorption of ECW in 2001). With the LRW Wrestling Super-Star Championship belt (the belt that I myself had fabricated at significant personal expense) becoming a secondary title featured in UCW Wrestling videos, then LRW would be left with only two choices: 1. Fabricate a new belt, change the name of the federation, and buy a new internet domain (i.e., start from scratch) or 2. Give up on the whole idea of creating wrestling videos (probably a more practical idea).
Much to "Hollywood" Shane's chagrin, his last opponent, Cameron Murphy, has been tabbed to officiate this all-important event. Although a Shane Saunders victory could easily spell the end of LRW Wrestling, we have instructed Cameron to referee the match in an absolutely unbiased manner. (Otherwise, Axel and Bodyslam will forever be able to claim that one of their wrestlers is the rightful LRW Wrestling title holder, making our federation seem like an inferior product.)
Like it or not, the very survival of LRW Wrestling is now in the hands of the erratic, flamboyant Fratboy Francis Franklin aka "Triple F." Lord help us all.
