LCW Redemption Day 2009 Pay-Per-View Official Preview

This Sunday night, LCW presents another pay-per-view extravaganza: Redemption Day. Which Legends will get their redemption, and which will have redemption beaten out of them? Let's take a look at the card:

Wildfire Tommy Rich vs. Big Van Vader
Big Van Vader is, obviously, one of the most dominating men on the LCW roster – and has been his entire career. However, in recent weeks and months, LCW has been less about Vader than he'd like. This Sunday, Vader looks to change all that when he takes on Wildfire Tommy Rich. Can Big Van Vader return to his dominating ways of old? Or will Wildfire Tommy Rich prove that “Vader Time” has run out?!

Madusa, Lioness Asuka, Chigusa Nagayo and Jaguar Yokota vs. Akira Hokuto, Devil Masami, Aja Kong, Dumo Matsumoto. If Hokuto's team wins, she gets a rematch for LCW Joshi Championship
For Akira Hokuto, she feels that she is overlooked in Legends Championship Wrestling and will do anything to prove that she's better than the other Lady Legends on the roster. Including creating her own championship – the LCW Joshi Championship. This Sunday, eight of the most Legendary female figures to ever have come out of Japan will do battle. For Hokuto's team, or Hokuto herself, it's about regaining the championship she brought into LCW – the LCW Joshi title. But can she, and her team, make that a reality? We'll have to find out this Sunday.

Cowboy Bob Orton and Dirty Dick Slater vs. The Bass Brothers (with Col. Robert Parker and Maw Bass) with the losing team having to break up and never team again
When Col. Robert Parker and Maw Bass began a formidable group known as the Desperados they hoped that the group would consist of Cowboy Bob Orton and Dirty Dick Slater – formerly under Parker's leadership – but that was not to be. Orton and Slater, instead of joining the force, decided that they were going to "go it alone." The feud between the Bass Brothers and Orton and Slater extends many months, but only reignited when Parker and Bass finally united as one. This Sunday, only one team can survive and remain a unit. However, the question is: which team can do such?!

Macho Man Randy Savage vs. Dynamite Kid
Thanks to the Showdown Championship Draft, a war has been started. Weeks ago, when the Dynamite Kid took the LCW Heritage Championship from Bret Hart – he looked to be on top of the world. However, only one week later, Macho Man Randy Savage took the belt from Kid – despite Kid's arrogant promise to the contrary. Kid, the next week, would get his revenge on Savage, costing him the Heritage Championship. Since then, the blood has been boiling between the former WWF Champion and the British great. This Sunday, it comes to a head.

LCW World Tag Team Champions Midnight Express (with Dennis Condrey) vs. The Nasty Boys
Those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat it. The Midnight Express were MIA from LCW for nearly a year. This past Wednesday on LCW Showdown, they returned to glory as, via the Showdown Championship Draft, they took back the LCW World Tag Team Championships. It was at LCW Endgame 2008 that the Nasty Boys beat the Midnight Express for the belts, sending the Midnight Express home. However, this Sunday, they look to exorcise some demons as they take on the pair that caused their extended hiatus. Will The Midnight Express make the most of their journey to Nastyville and retain the LCW World Tag Team Championships... or will we have a repeat of last year?

LCW Heritage Champion Kevin Von Erich vs. Bret Hart
The formula for this match is very simple: two men, one championship and a battleground to settle who is the best family in this history of professional wrestling. For Bret Hart, losing the LCW Heritage Championship on October 28th edition of LCW Showdown, he lost a part of his soul. This past week, Kevin Von Erich won the title. Before the match – in which he beat then-champion King Kong Bundy – he accepted a challenge from Hart to a title match. Now, it's on. The Von Erichs and the Harts are two of the most famed names in professional wrestling. With famous names such as Owen Hart, Bret himself and Jim Neidhart all part of that family, Bret looks to make all of them proud this Sunday as he attempts to bring back the LCW Heritage Championship. But can he do it against a Von Erich?

LCW United States Champion Superstar Billy Graham vs. Stan Hansen (with Col. Robert Parker and Maw Bass)
When Superstar Billy Graham recaptured his magic and won the LCW United States Championship, he did so at the expense of Stan Hansen who had the title as a result of the Showdown Championship Draft Series. Hansen, being the hot-tempered Legend that he is, wouldn't let that settle and decided that he wanted his championship back. Can he get the title back this Sunday?! And what role will Col. Robert Parker and Maw Bass play in the match?

LCW Women's Champion Luna Vachon vs. Ivory vs. Lock in a triple threat match
When LCW General Manager Harley Race brought the LCW Women's Championship out of retirement, it sparked a fire of competition under every Lady Legend. It even came between sisters, Lock and Luna Vachon. Lock, who was chosen to compete in a battle royal because Luna had other plans, was attacked in the locker room and forced out of the battle royal by Luna herself. Obviously, this didn't sit well with Lock. But, she confused fans when she helped Vachon win the LCW Women's Championship over then-champion Ivory. Lock and Ivory had a confrontation this past week on LCW Showdown in which Lock stated that she wanted to rip the title away from Vachon and cause her the ultimate distress. Ivory, obviously, will have something to say about that. Which Lady Legend will come out on top, holding the LCW Women's title this Sunday?

LCW International Champion Barry Windham vs. Paul Orndorff
Winning the much coveted Sam Muchnick Memorial Battle Royal at the LCW Showdown at the Chase television special means a lot. Not only because of what the battle royal represents, but also because upon the victor was bestowed a shot at the LCW International Championship. Paul Orndorff is that man, and this Sunday, he will face Barry Windham in a match for the much sought after title. Orndorff had the chance to become the LCW Heritage Champion thanks to the Showdown Championship Draft. He was unsuccessful in that attempt, but his pride will not let him be unsuccessful again this Sunday. Barry Windham, who rides a wave of momentum heading into Redemption Day, beat Dr. Death Steve Williams for the title – who had been dominating for months – on October 11, on LCW Showdown. Which man can leave LCW International Champion?

Bill Goldberg vs. Dr. Death Steve Williams
A war that has been raging for months, initially started between Goldberg and Williams over the LCW International Championship. At LCW Night of Horrors, the two gave the performances of their lives in a battle which was a match of the year candidate in many people's eyes. Williams, who was recently re-diagnosed with cancer, managed to retain his title on that night, forcing himself and his rival Goldberg to form mutual respect. However, Williams soon felt that Goldberg was trying to help him unnecessarily and the rivalry intensified.

LCW Universal Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Magnum TA
This is it. This is what everyone has been waiting for. Since July 12, 2009, at the LCW Beach Brawl pay-per-view, Stone Cold Steve Austin has reigned over LCW as the top dog as the LCW Universal Championship. Not even the continuous title defenses as part of the Showdown Championship Draft, or the looming threat of Sid Vicious has derailed the Texas Rattlesnake. Magnum TA, a former LCW Universal Champion, never lost the title as it was forced away from him thanks to a backstage assault. Magnum, the longest reigning champion in LCW's four year history, will, this Sunday, attempt to bring that title back home with him. LCW fans who were with us in our early years will remember a feud between these two over the LCW International Championship. Now, however, the stakes are higher than they were back then, and the anticipation for this match is higher than any match in recent memory. What will happen when two of LCW's top Legends fight it out over the top prize in the company? Find out this Sunday at LCW Redemption Day.
