Bobby Roode d.  Elix Skipper via Pinfall at 7:27
Jay Lethal d. Val Venis via Submission at 14:07

** The original 4-21 show results were lost. Below is a shorter recap than the original. **



[[ Glory kicks off with a previously taped promo. We see Colt Cabana sitting on an airplane full of people. It's evidently nighttime at most of the passengers are asleep. Colt holds the camera up to his face and tries whispering into the camera, but his excitement overtakes him rather quickly. ]]

Colt Cabana: LoC, baby! This is your Pure Champion, Colt Cabana, just dropping you people a line to say hello! I'm on my way back from England, where I went undefeated, by the way..

[[ Thumbs up. ]]

Colt Cabana: And I just gotta' address this whole Pure title challenge I laid out. I've been getting tons of applicants from League of Champions, Solid Gold Wrestling, Japan All-Pro Wrestling.. Val Venis, buddy, you're a great guy, heart of gold as shiny and bright as your bald head, my man.. But no, you are not getting the Pure title shot. Keep shooting for the moon, though.. Because even if you miss, you land among the stars, daddy!

[[ Colt smiles. ]]

Colt Cabana: But I'm tellin' ya, EVERYBODY'S DYING TO KNOW WHO COLT CABANA'S GONNA' FACE AT CANADIAN COLLISION! Sir, who do you think Colt Cabana's gonna' face?

[[ Colt turns to a man sitting beside him and wakes him up from his sleep. ]]

Man: Who the hell is Colt Cabana?

Colt Cabana: This man is a humble fan, ladies and gents!

[[ Colt rolls his eyes in the camera. ]]

Colt Cabana: The process of finding an opponent.. It was long and hard.

[[ Pause. ]]

Colt Cabana: That's what she said.

[[ He continues like nothing happened. ]]

Colt Cabana: But yours truly has come to a final conclusion on an opponent. It's BIG! It's HUGE! Ma'am.. Give me a drum roll as I announce this opponent of mine.. You're going to be on national television!

Woman: Kiss my ass!

Colt Cabana: No, it's not the Franchise! It's his partner, Steve Corino, instead! That's right Steve-O, your big chance is next week against me, so you'd better come prepared for a beating of a lifetime, daddy! Colt Cabana doesn't plane on losing this title here any time soon, especially to the almighty "Trouble King!"

Match One: Tag Team
EnC
vs. Dudley Boys


Edge and Christian wins the flashback to 2001 WWF-era match fairly easily. The finish comes as they go old-school, and hit a stacker suplex off the top for the victory after MnM distract the Dudley Boys from the top of the ramp with their presence.

Winner: Edge and Christian via Pinfall  (22:26)


[[ The Dudley Boys are preparing to be interviewed right after their loss to Edge and Christian. ]]

Michael Cole: Bubba Ray, D-Von, just moments ago, the distractions from Mercury and Nitro caused you two to suffer yet another loss here in LoC, making that five straight since week one.

Bubba Ray Dudley: You can stop right there, Cole.

[[ Bubba rips the microphone out of his hand and pushes Cole off camera. ]]

Bubba Ray Dudley: Boys, you wanna' keep this shit up? You wanna' make our lives a living hell?

D-Von Dudley: WRONG idea!

Bubba Ray Dudley: Spit in our faces, run our names in the dirt.. Keep doing all of it. Wins and losses don't matter. Next week, we couldn't care less if we won or not.. Canadian Collision.. You two won't be leaving the ring on your own.

[[ D-Von shakes his head back and forth. ]]

Bubba Ray Dudley: You two won't be leaving on stretchers.

D-Von Dudley: Preach it!

Bubba Ray Dudley: Next week, when we're done with you two.. You'll be leaving the ring in BODY BAGS!

D-Von Dudley: You WILL find out what happens when ya' mess with da' Dudley Boyz!

Bubba Ray Dudley: And it's been the worst.. and LAST mistake you two will ever make!

D-Von Dudley: TESTIFY!

[[ Bubba Ray slams the microphone down on the floor, making a loud pop. I would not want to be MnM right now. ]]


Match Two: Kondo-Gauntlet
Shuji Kondo
 vs. RVD

Shuji Kondo dominated RVD from the get-go. This match wasn't even close, and it ended with RVD being King Kong Lariated through the top and middle rope to the outside, where he was unable to answer the ten count from the referee

Winner: Shuji Kondo via Countout  (29:41)


[[ Backstage we're in a locker room and we see Edge and Christian changing out of their ring gear and into their street clothes. Orton's looking around for his gear bag to put his street clothes in. Elix Skipper, Tomko and Trish are watching the television with Jay Lethal, who's watching Hogan versus Macho Man from Wrestlemania V, not really paying attention to anything around them. ]]

Edge: Was it me, or was beating the Dudleys tonight easier than before?

Christian Cage: Absolutely.

Edge: I miss those days. All we need is a Tag title each and we're going back to the dark ages.

Randy Orton: Tonight's gonna' be a clean sweep for Sports Entertainment Xtreme. Tonight, I'm going to wipe the floor with those three guys and win that Elite title.

Edge: Yeah, Christopher Daniels? Petey Williams? CM Punk? Who the hell are these people?

Christian Cage: And why doesn't CM Punk drink beer or have promiscuous sex?

[[ Edge shrugs. ]]

Edge: Sounds to me Punk would rather spend his time getting rammed by Colt Cabana.

Randy Orton: CM Punk makes me sick to my stomach. Title or no title next week.. I'm going to leave CM Punk bloodied and crippled in that ring for ruining my stay so far in LoC. We've all seen what Val Venis has done since those fluke wins over me.. Not a damn thing!

[[ Everyone in the locker room laughs. ]]

Randy Orton: SHUT UP!

Vince Russo: Bitches, bitches, bitches.

[[ Vince Russo walks into the picture with Shuji Kondo standing beside him. ]]

Vince Russo: I want you guys to welcome da' newest memba' of SEX.. TAKA Michinoku!

Tyson Tomko: ..Kondo?

Trish Stratus: That's not TAKA.

Vince Russo: Shut up, it is too.

Shuji Kondo: Shuji Kondo I am.

[[ Russo looks at him, confused. ]]

Vince Russo: Why the fuck did he talk like Yoda?!

Randy Orton: ALRIGHT, THAT'S IT! THAT'S IT!

[[ Orton slams his gear bag on the ground. ]]

Randy Orton: WHO DID IT?!

Christian Cage: Did what?

[[ Orton picks the gear bag up and makes everyone smell of it, everyone covers their noses. ]]

Vince Russo: Someone cookin' soup?

Randy Orton: I'm glad someone got a kick out of destroying someone else's property. If I don't find out who did this.. I'm going to lose..

[[ Orton kicks a trash can clear across the other side of the room. ]]

Randy Orton: My FRICKIN' MIND!

Vince Russo: So anyway, I think this guy here's a little bit retarded. He's all squint-eyed and shit.

[[ Kondo KING KONG LARIATS VINCE RUSSO! Russo accordions on the floor in a heap. Kondo walks out of the dressing room, and no one even bothers to check on Vince Russo. Jay Lethal stands up out of his chair all fired up. ]]

Jay Lethal: HOGAN! I WANT HOGAN! BE A MAN, HULKSTER! BE A MAN, HULK!

[[ Fade. ]]


Match Three: Non-Title
Bryan Danielson
vs. AJ Styles

Bryan Danielson and AJ Styles had a fantastic non-title match on Glory. Just a shame you won't be able to read about how awesome it was because the original copy of the show has been lost forever. :(. Bryan Danielson won this epic bout with the Crossface Chicken Wing, looking very strong, and remaining undefeated going into the big show next week.

Winner: Bryan Danielson via Submission (29:42)


[[ A video package begins playing showing some of the highlight moments of Matt and Jeff Hardy. ]]

" This Saturday night.. It's gonna' be EXTREME! "

" We've been overlooked and underrated ever since we won these Tag Team titles. "

" Canadian Collision ain't gonna' be a cakewalk for the Hart Foundation like they think! "

" Me and Jeff, we're in it to win it! We're the best tag team in the world for a reason! "

[[ Fade over to a video of the Hart Foundation and their jaw-dropping moves that's earned them a title shot. ]]

" The Hardy Boys are gonna' bow down on Saturday night.. And they're gonna' KISS BRET HART'S FUCKIN' ASS, BABY! "

" We have the best pedigree out of any other competitors in this business. My father was apart of one of the greatest tag teams in the history of this business. Our uncle is the greatest wrestler in pro wrestling. Success is our only option. "

[[ Now a video plays hyping the Tag Team title match. ]]

" When the smoke clears and the dust settles.. There's only gonna' be one team left standing as LoC Tag Team Champions. "

" Me and Harry's gonna' humiliate the Hardy Boys! "

" It's going to be a great match, but only one team's leaving with those straps. "

" We're gonna' win those titles! Because we're the best there is.. "

" Matt and Jeff Hardy.. "

" .. The best there was.. "

" THE HARDY BOYS! "

" .. and the best.. There ever WILL BE! "

[[ The Hardy Boys versus The New Hart Foundation.. Next week on Glory! ]]


Match Four: Tag Team Match
New Hart Foundation
vs. Kurt Angle and John Cena

John Cena and Kurt Angle ran right through the two number one contenders to the LoC Tag Team titles with ease. Teddy Hart and Harry Smith put up a good fight, but they're just not on the level in comparison to people like John Cena and Kurt Angle. The finish comes as Harry's locked in the STFU and Angle has Teddy Hart in the Angle Lock. Both men tap soon thereafter.

Winner: John Cena and Kurt Angle via Submission (29:42)


[[ We open up in the backstage area where we see Maria preparing to interview Shawn Michaels. Michaels looks very focused and motivated before our eyes. Maria takes a deep breath and begins. ]]

Maria: Hi everybody! Maria here! And with me is SHAWN MICHAELS!

[[ The fans pop from the arena, watching the promo on the jumbo-tron. ]]

Maria: Now Shawn, next week you fight for the LoC World Heavyweight title against Bryan Danielson. How are you feeling?

Shawn Michaels: How am I feeling?

[[ She nods. ]]

Shawn Michaels: Maria, babe, I couldn't feel any BETTER!

[[ He smirks. ]]

Shawn Michaels: Next week, "the Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels walks into Calgary, Alberta, Canada.. And he's gonna' kick his way to that LoC World title! Bryan Danielson is a great wrestler, don't get me wrong.. But Maria, he's going about things the wrong way. He's not being a true champion. Now, I know I'm not the guy to be talkin' with my past, but I'm a changed man, and I'm here to help a former student secure his legacy in a good way.

[[ Pause. ]]

Shawn Michaels: Bryan Danielson needs a wake-up call. He's the most talented guy on this roster, but at the same time, he's got the worse mentality and attitude. And Maria, there's no better man in the world to hand Bryan Danielson that reality check and take his LoC title away from him next week than yours truly!

Bryan Danielson: That so, Shawn?

[[ Bryan Danielson, carrying the LoC World title, no Ric Flair in sight, walks into the picture. ]]

Bryan Danielson: You're going to give me a wake up call next week, huh?

Shawn Michaels: That's right.

Bryan Danielson: I think you need to put the Shawn Michaels Comeback Express in neutral for a bit, Shawn. You're not in my league. The only reason someone like you is even getting a shot at my LoC WORLD Heavyweight title, is because you somehow got your grubby little fingers on that open contract. Not surprising, though.. I bet you just pulled a few strings to get into the main event like you always did.

[[ Danielson's cockiness is oozing out of him. ]]

Bryan Danielson: Next week, you're going into No Man's Land, Michaels. You're entering a country that hates you, and you're facing a man who hates you even more. You trained me, yes.. But Ric Flair has helped mold me into a killer. I'm a brand new wrestler, more deadlier than ever. I am everything this company needed for a World champion.

[[ He displays the World title. ]]

Bryan Danielson: You as World Champion would be a monstrosity for this company. Me, I've faced all comers left and right. Hell, I even traveled to Japan, a foreign country in another promotion and defended this title, Shawn. What'd you done with this belt? You'd just faked a knee injury and lost your smile and not gone.

Shawn Michaels: Keep talking, Danielson. Next week, whatever match you pick, I'm going to beat you at your own game. I taught you everything you know.. But not everything that I KNOW! You're gonna' get an up close and personal look at the reasons why I am THE SHOWSTOPPA! THE ICON! THE MAIN EVENT! And why I am the next.. League O'Champions WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!

[[ Danielson shrugs Michaels off. ]]

Bryan Danielson: The catchphrases again? Seems like you're really fired up for this match.. So, let me rain on your parade real quick and see what happens when I tell you watch kind of match we're having.

Shawn Michaels: Go for it.

Bryan Danielson: Special guest referee.

Shawn Michaels: Oh, creative, kid.. So what, you gonna' have Flair be the referee and screw me over?

Bryan Danielson: Nope.

[[ He pauses, a huge smile comes over his face. ]]

Bryan Danielson: I made a few calls this week and got a referee who'd call it right down the middle.. For me at least.. You may know 'em.. His name's BRET "THE HITMAN" HART!

[[ Michaels' face goes blank. ]]

Shawn Michaels: Looks like. after all these years.. Shawn screwed Shawn.

[[ Danielson walks off leaving Michaels standing there with Maria. ]]

Maria: Shawn, I have one more question.

Shawn Michaels: What?

Maria: When you lost your smile that time.. Did you ever find it?

[[ Michaels walks off, Maria pouts. Fade. ]]


Match Five: LoC Elite Title
Randy Orton vs. Petey Williams vs. Christopher Daniels vs. CM Punk

Danielson was the first man eliminated after Petey hit him with the Canadian Destroyer, followed by an RKO from Orton. The team of Petey and Orton doesn't last too long, as Orton doesn't try to break up the count as CM Punk covers Petey after the Pepsi Twist.  Punk doesn't so much as get up from the cover on Petey as Orton rolls him up, and puts his feet on the ropes for the three count. Orton's stolen a win from Punk!

Winner: Randy Orton via Pinfall (29:16)
New Elite Champion


[[ After the match, while Randy Orton is celebrating with the Elite title in his arms, Punk grabs a microphone. He has a smile on his face, knowing he got screwed over by Orton. He starts speaking as Orton turns around. ]]

CM Punk: I got to admit, Orton.. That match was very well-played my friend.

[[ Punk wipes the hair out of his eyes. ]]

CM Punk: Looks like next week, you and I are fighting for that title. The odds are against me more than ever. No champion goes into his first defense wanting to lose the belt.. I really don't have a chance in hell of beating you.. But you know what?

[[ Orton looks at him, not knowing what to do or say. ]]

CM Punk: I LOVE BEATING THE ODDS!

[[ Punk keeps walking closer and closer to him, backing him into a corner. ]]

CM Punk: I'M GOING TO TAKE THE ODDS ON HEAD-ON, ORTON! I DON'T NEED LUCK!

[[ Orton tries pushing Punk back, but he keeps coming at him. ]]

CM Punk: You may have gotten the best of me tonight, but Orton, I know one thing that's true and will continue to prove itself true next week.. I'M DRUG-FREE! I'M ALCOHOL-FREE! I'M STRAIGHT EDGE.. AND BETTER.. THAN..

[[ Punk leans in right in Orton's face. He holds the mic up to his mouth which is right in Orton's ear. ]]

CM Punk: ..You.

[[ This escalates into a brawl. Sports Entertainment Xtreme hits the ring, and everyone's pounding away on CM Punk. That is, until John Cena, AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, and Kurt Angle hit the ring to even the score. The referees and agents finally split everyone up, but who will have the advantage come Canadian Collision? ]]
