LEGACY Wrestling Presents: Friday the 20th

LEGACY Wrestling Presents: Friday the 20th (6/20/14)

The Carson Community Center in Carson, California

w/ Leo Ragatti & Tracy Race on Commentary

Preview & Card Summary

On May 9th, 1980-- a film came along that lifted a genre above the rest. 34 years later-- in 2014, a professional wrestling promotion is coming along that's looking to replicate what Friday the 13th did for the horror genre. To say it's a 'new day' would be totally cliche, so let's just say.. LEGACY Wrestling wants to reinvent the wheel. Taking a concept so tested and true and change it-- not because they want to, but because they HAVE to. The only way to properly introduce yourself intot he game is by throwing everything you've got into it, and that's exactly what LEGACY is out to do.

Equipped with heavy ammo-- names like 'The Emerald' Drew Stevenson, 'The Platinum Innovator' Scotty Addams- local talents such as 'The Ultra' Christian Othniel-- representing the PRESTIGIOUS Treborn Family from Los Angeles; Prince and Ripper.. and even looking to restore a sense to THEIR family name in Miles and Dante Lozio. But that's not all- the debut of 'THE TITAN' Bulldozer Brixton, a 6'10" 420lbs. BEAST!

Speaking of the mountain of a man-- kicking the night off, looking to hook the fans from the start there will be the HIGHLY anticipated debut of 'THE TITAN' Bulldozer Brixton-- but much like Brixton-- it won't be ordinary. Instead, to test Brixton, LEGACY wants to see how he does against not one but TWO very capable opponents in a handicap match. Brixton looks to 'bulldoze' his way through Ryan Hawkins AND Alex Andrews to prove that there's still a place in pro wrestling for a big man-- a place as LEGACY Heavyweight Champion! Ryan Hawkins-- a man who's pretty big on the internet on the other hand, wants to show that he won't be no pushover and WON'T take being a stepping stone for Brixton-- and when you're called 'The Showstealer' as Alex Andrews is, the last thing he wants is to be used as a sacrificial lamb! Will the unlikely duo of Hawkins and Andrews throw a wrench into the plans of Bulldozer Brixton-- or is the MASSIVE Canadian going to STORM his way to the top of LEGACY?

With prior issues lingering-- 'The Second City Warrior' Matt Ward will battle Ian Windermear in what we're anticipating will be nothing short of a brutal fight. Ward and Windermear's problems go back to an unknown location and spilled over on Twitter which essentially led to Windermear's signing with LEGACY.. Will these two be able to walk out of The Carson Community Center when it's all said and done!?

Living true to the statement of giving the fans a little bit of something-- the show wouldn't be complete without a showcase of what our LEGACY Females offer. 18 year old rookie and LA native, Zoe looks to get her feet wet here as she faces off against Ruby Red. While Zoe is breaking into the business and looking to get herself started, Ruby Red can be guaranteed to NOT be a pushover, both ladies have the chance to surely impress LEGACY officials here.

There's going to be a little bit of everything for our kickoff show- so it wouldn't be complete without a 4-Way Dance featuring 4 of LEGACY's quickest- most agile and promising stars of the future! Noah Adelaide, formally a tag team wrestler is looking to test his skills as a solo competitor as he takes on the lovable and charming Masen Dysen- the egomaniac Cameron Kaiser and all-around bad-boy Terry John. Expect ELECTRIFYING action!

Irishman- Nathanael Black who's made a living for himself in bare-knuckle and boxing brawls squares off against the New Mexico native C-4- both men seem intent to prove they belong so this should be a hard-hitting, very old-school fight with the winner looking to cement themself as 'the enforcer' of LEGACY.

In what may be the most bitter brawl of them all though.. decades upon decades come to a head here as in TAG TEAM action.. The Treborn Legacy; Prince Treborn and Derek 'Ripper' Treborn, two third generation stars from the lengthy Treborn family bloodline will battle the Easy Bay native second generation stars- Miles and Dante Lozio; The Lozios.. In-state, the rivarly between both families have raged since 1977 so there's the opportunity that things may.. get out of control here but it's been a long time coming.

LA Native- 'The Ultra' Christian Othniel squares off against 'The Candy Man' Brandon Marks and recent graduate of The Emerald Academy.. Bobby Langford in a Triple Threat match, just to showcase how versatile LEGACY's shows can be! Langford will be accompanied by Frank Washington-- this may very well be a match showcasing a future LEGACY Heavyweight Championship!

In our semi main-event, Scotty Addams will battle Joey Edwards in what we're hearing has SERIOUS implications of how officials will determine a challenger for the LEGACY Heavyweight Championship. Scotty has come a long way in the industry, he has his shot to continue stepping towards greatness as standing in his way is Joey Edwards-- who will have 'The Son of Anarchy' Richard Steen in his corner. Edwards is said to be on the brink of shattering through superstar status so a win versus 'The Platinum Innovator' will just move the process along!

And concluding the evening-- the main event will see 'The Emerald' Drew Stevenson, a multiple time World Champion square off against Alyssa Pryde.. Who.. eats faces. Sounds ridiculous? It's not, Alyssa is as brutal and capable as they come, Drew however, has seen a lot through his career and never underestimates his opposition. It's said that Drew and Alyssa have hard words in the past where Drew told Alyssa to 'earn a shot' at him-- in LEGACY? It's GONNA happen!

Make sure you DON'T miss the kickoff event for the Summer for LEGACY-- as they said 34 years ago.. Fridays will NEVER be the same again!

Show Intro

Inside of the Carson Community Center, it was a mad house. Not because of 'bingo' night.. not because there was a local indy act blowing out the speakers, but rather because for the first time in a long time.. the state of California was housing a FRESH new kid on the block in terms of professional wrestling, a company that called Carson.. home. Set up in the arena, it wasn't anything too fancy. A ring, standard size-- the mat was black, the ropes was black, white black and the turnbuckle matched the rope color scheme. Outside of the ring-- the barricades that kept the fans back? It was done in the old-style, steel.. of course they too was painted black to match the rest of it.

"LAAAADIIIIESSSSSSSS AND GEEEEENTTTTTLEEEEEEEMENNNNNN OF CAAAAARSSSSSSONNNNNNN.. CAAAALLLLLLIIIIFFFFOOOORRRRRRNNNNNNNIAAAAAAA.."

A THUNDEROUS ovation sounded once their city name was announced.

"WELCOME TO LEGACY WRESTLING'S DEBUT EVENT.. FRIIIIDAAAYYYYY.. THE.. TWENTIETH!"

Over the PA System the classic sound of Jason Voorhes' "chi.. chi.. chi..", "ha.. ha.. ha.." which gave the crowd yet ANOTHER reason to pop.

"I'M PROUD TO INTRODUCE THE COMMISSIONER OF LEGACY WRESTLING; PETER.. BAAAAAUUUUUUUERRRRRRRRRRRRR!"

The crowd had yet to meet the man who ran LEGACY on-air.. most of them would wish they hadn't once this was all said and done. Then- suddenly..

"I'M.. TOO SEXY FOR MY LOVE.. TOO SEXY FOR MY LOVE, LOVE'S GOING TO LEAVEEEEEEEEE!"

"I'm Too Sexy" by Right Said Fred pulsated through the arena as within seconds, shoving through the curtain we see Peter Bauer with a turtle neck on and a sports coat. His hair looked ridiculous, the expression on his face said 'powertrip' and mixed with his pick of theme music, this was a classic experience. Some fans within the arena begun to let Bauer hear it already, not appreciating the ear-ache they were beginning to get from the nuisance of music, but he laughed it off and headed down towards the ring-- not bothering to interact with the fans at all.

"Welcome ladies and gentlemen to LEGACY Wrestling's Friday the 20th-- My name is Len Ragatti.."

".. and I'm Tracy Race."

"And we're you're commentary team from here, on out! We're proud to be able to call the action for you.. and as it was said earlier; the man making his way to the ring now is Peter Bauer, or as he likes to be called.. The Brass."

Tracy Race: "I'm not calling another man The Brass, that's absolutely ridiculous."

Len Ragatti: "You don't have to Tracy, I'm just telling the people what Mister Bauer prefers!"

As Right Said Fred's one hit wonder continued to looped over the PA, Bauer eventually got into the ring and was handed a mic-- gazing it over, he nodded before with a sudden movement-- he stuck the mic into the air- the theme cut off as there was nothing aside of a few boos, a whole lot of buzzing and totally random "YOU SUCK BAUER" chant booming through.

Len Ragatti: "Seems like Bauer is.. taking in the moment?"

Tracy Race: "Oh, he's taking in something alright."

In a total obnoxious manner, Bauer slowly moved the mic to his lips while twirling the mic in his hand all before he stopped near his lips and threw his head back.

Petey Bauer: "PLEASE, HOLD YOUR APPLAUSE UNTIL AFTER WE'RE DONE HERE.. PLEASE! IT'S ALL I ASK OF YOU!"

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Len Ragatti: "Looks like the fans here in the LEGACY Center isn't too keen on The Brass!"

Race: "It's hard being keen on ANYONE who refers to themselves as a synonym for 'the boss'.. Plus, has Bauer even wrestled a match in his life?!"

Len Ragatti: "I have no idea Tracy, I'm sure I'll add that to the list for my Q and A after the show."

Petey Bauer: "Now since this is all new to you, allow me to break it down so you're understanding what's going on here! This isn't just a professional wrestling company that boomed out of no where.. no, this is a professional wrestling company ran by the single.. GREATEST.. promoter in PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING HISTORY!"

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Len Ragatti: "It seems like Mister Bauer holds himself in a VERY high regard!"

Petey Bauer: "Don't boo! Don't boo me, I'm your friend! I'm someone that's looking out for YOUR best interest! If you wanna boo something, I could have a list typed up and made out to each and everyone of you for better things to jeer at! Like for starters.. the city of Carson, California.."

Tracy Race: ".. really?!"

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Petey Bauer: "INDEED! BOO, YES! BOO CARSON! 'CAUSE IT SUCKS AS MUCH AS IT'S NAMESAKE, CARSON PALMER!"

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Len Ragatti: "I'm not too sharp on the business side of things but I'm pretty sure.. alienating your audience during the first 10 minutes of your show isn't the particular way you wanna do things.. but there's a reason why Bauer has a mic in his hand at the moment and I'm doing commentary."

Tracy Race: "It's 'cause Bauer interviews well and you don't."

Len Ragatti: "Touche."

Petey Bauer: "But I'm not here to talk about the Trojans.. I'm not here to talk about Carson Palmer or even how much of a rat-trap Carson, California is.. I'm here to tell you that my name is PETEY BAUER AND I'M YOUR NEW GOD, BABY!"

Sprinting towards the turnbuckle, Bauer scaled it and took a bow, all as the fans continued to boo his presence. Kissing his hands and throwing it out to the side to mock the people in attendance, Bauer even wiped away a trace of a tear that never really emerged from his left eye as he allowed himself to fall back down onto the mat and move back to the center of the ring. Taking a second to collect himself and form his thoughts, Bauer once again moved the mic to his lips.

Petey Bauer: "Despite me urging to relocate LEGACY to somewhere more classy- like Santa Monica or even Long Beach, we're stuck here so.. so we've gotta make-do with what we've got. I can assure you that under my watch, not only will LEGACY fill the HUGE void left in your lives by the constant robberies you're victim of due to it's terrible economy and lack of any occupational system-- but I.. Peter.. Doyle.. Bauer personally guarantees that LEGACY Wrestling will be the answer to ALL your prayers! The prayers asking for something-- anything to keep you folk having faith in the industry due to the massive amount of suckitude that's been offered lately. I GUARANTEE-- that names like.. "The Emerald" Drew Stevenson.."

"BOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Petey Bauer: "Alyssa Pryde.."

A mixed reaction was given for Pryde-- compared to the OVERWHELMING boo's that Drew's name received.

Petey Bauer: "SCOTTY ADDAMS! JOEY EDWARDS! CHRISTIAN OTHNIEL! BOBBY LANGFORD! BULLDOZER BRIXTON! THE TREBORNS-- THE LOZIOS-- THEY ALL DO WHAT THEY'RE HERE TO DO.."

Letting off a creepy grin, Bauer nodded.

Petey Bauer: ".. make me a WHOLE bunch of money! YOU GUYS SUCK, I'M GOING TO THE BACK BEFORE I PASS OUT FROM NEGATIVITY, GOOD NIGHT BORING OLD CARSON!"

"PETEY SUCKS! PETEY SUCKS! PETEY SUCKS!"

Len Ragatti: "A truly interesting way to address the fans of LEGACY Wrestling.."

Tracy Race: "This guy burns more bridges than California's City and County system."

Len Ragatti: "I wouldn't doubt it.. Not one.. bit."

With Bauer waving off at the fans as he made his way up the stage and towards the back.. the camera cut out to the first 'sponsorship break' of the evening.. all as Bauer was seen standing at the top of the stage, waving and smiling as if he was just elected president of the United States. Was he the right man to lead LEGACY to the promised land? It remained to be seen so far, but if anything-- Bauer's debut and opening address would be remembered for being as negative and insulting as he's known to be in life.
