LCW Showdown Television Results 06.18.08

LCW Showdown Television Results (June 18, 2008) live from 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore, MD.

From the broadcast booth, Tony Schiavone and Larry Zbyszko welcomed everyone to LCW Showdown as "Monsters" by Matchbook Romance, the LCW Showdown theme song, played in the background and as fireworks exploded all over the arena.

From the ring, ring announcer Gary Michael Capetta introduced the People’s Champion and Diamond Dallas Page came out. Page started talking about facing the Rock at LCW SuperClash and the Rock came out and joined him in the ring. They compared their careers in the ring as well as their careers in Hollywood and Rock said, “You see, Page, that’s what you don’t seem to understand: it’s not about what you or I think, it’s not about who’s been more successful in the ring or in Hollywood. It’s not about the Diamond Cutter or the Rock Bottom or the People’s Elbow or the People’s Eyebrow. It’s about who is the People’s Champion!” Page said, “Why don’t we ask the fans, right here, right now Rock. (Speaking to the fans) Who do you guys think is the People’s Champion. Do you think I’m the People’s Champion?” Half of the audience cheered and half of the audience booed. Page continued, “How about the Rock? Do you think the Rock is the People’s Champion?” Some of the audience cheered, but a larger segment of the audience booed than booed for Page. Page said, “Wow, Rock, maybe we don’t have to have a match. Sounds like I might be the real People’s Champ after all. I mean, Rock, no matter what you do, no matter what you say, no matter who you ask the result is always the same. I don’t know if you saw the poll on LegendsChampionshipWrestling.com, but you’re not the People’s Champ anymore. Most of the people in this audience don’t even want you to be here.” The Rock got in Page’s face and Page said, “You want to know what doesn’t matter? What does matter is what any of them say because we’re going to settle this once and for all at LCW SuperClash. In just four days, this will be settled once and for all and when you’re looking up at the lights after taking the Diamond Cutter, you’ll know without a shadow of a doubt that while you might be the big Hollywood movie star, in wrestling, you’re not the People’s Champion anymore. After LCW SuperClash in four days, I’ll be what I’ve always been, the real People’s Champion. BANG!” Page went to walk away, but Rock grabbed Page and hit him with the Rock Bottom and left the ring to a mix of cheers and boos.

From the broadcast booth, Tony Schiavone and Larry Zbyszko discussed the identity of Missy Hyatt’s stalker and whether or not it was a man of a woman. Schiavone said, “Well, we’ve invited someone with some unique experience in the matter. Ladies and gentlemen, let’s go now to legendary talk show host Maury Povich, who is in the crowd to get the opinion of some of our fans.” As video footage of Missy Hyatt’s stalker played on the LegendsTron, Povich asked several people in the audience if they thought Missy Hyatt’s stalker was a man or a woman. A man at ringside, “Yo, that’s a dude, Maury. He ain’t got no boobs. It can’t be a woman.” The woman next to him said, “That a woman, Maury. Look at the way she walks. And those hips. You can wrap your chest to hide boobies, but you can’t hide the hips. That’s a woman! It’s a woman, Maury! I know it!” Another woman said, “I think it’s a man, Maury. A woman couldn’t lift John Tatum like that guy did. Not even Chyna.” Hollywood John Tatum appeared with Missy Hyatt and said, “Maury, I don’t give a damn if it’s a man or woman. That stalker wanted to get involved in my business, it wanted to start something with me, it wanted to mess with my valet, well whatever it is, it made a mistake. I don’t care if it’s a man or a woman, I’m going to kick its ass at LCW SuperClash. I don’t care who you are or what you are, but you wanted to start something with me and it’s started. Step into the ring and let me finish it! And when it’s finished, the whole world is going to know who the stalker is.” Tatum stormed off with Hyatt as the show went to commercial.

Anderson announced that Vader and Williams match at LCW SuperClash this Sunday would be a first blood match. Anderson got in Watts face and said, "I hope Dr. Death knew what he was doing when he cost Vader the title last week on LCW Showdown because I don't think I've ever seen Vader that mad before. I hope you and Dr. Death know what you're doing." Race interrupted him and said, "I hope you two know what you're doing because Vader knows what he's doing. He's more focused than ever, he's angrier than ever, and this Sunday at LCW SuperClash, he's going to be more focused on making Dr. Death Steve Williams bleed than ever." Race walked away and Watts looked at Anderson and Anderson said, "You know, you guys kind of brought it on yourselves, brother." Watts said, "Whatever," and stormed out of Anderson's office.

As for defending the title at SuperClash, that’s not going to happen because I’m going to be the champion for a while and I’m not going to defend the title until I’m damn good and ready.” LCW General Manager Ole Anderson appeared and said Anderson would defend when he told him to defend the title and he was going to wrestle tonight in a non-title match against…Iceman King Parsons.

Koloff rolled out of the ring and Magnum picked up the LCW Universal Championship that Koloff left in the ring and stared at it and looked at Koloff as the show went off the air.
