[Breaking News] LCW Chairman of the Board Ted Turner Announces WarGames Squad

With control of the company hanging in the balance in a WarGames match at LCW Caged Heat that is being dubbed "WarGames: Last Chance", LCW Chairman of the Board Ted Turner today named the members of his five-man WarGames squad.

Last week, LCW Founder Christian Calaway announced his five-man squad: LCW Universal Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin, Magnum TA, Nikita Koloff, Macho Man Randy Savage, and Bret Hart. He challenged Turner to name the members of his squad, but Turner said Calaway would have to wait.

Well, the wait was over today as Turner finally made the announcement, introducing the world to his five-man squad. From LCW Headquarters in Sacramento, CA, Turner announced at a press conference that Bill Goldberg would captain the team with LCW United States Champion Diamond Dallas Page. Turner then stopped before introducing the remaining members of the team and said that didn't care if Stone Cold Steve Austin was the new LCW Universal Champion and he didn't care if Calaway had thwarted his attempt to make Bill Goldberg the LCW Universal Champion because he had a hand in taking the title from Calaway's "chosen one," Magnum TA. Turner said he was personally responsible for finding the three men who attacked magnum TA and took him out of the LCW Beach Brawl main event. Turner said the three men were the remaining members of his team.

Turner said, "Seven years ago, Vince McMahon tried to inject a poison, a cancer, into the WWE in an attempt to kill the company so he didn't have to share power with Ric Flair. And I can understand that feeling. With that in mind, I'm going to try to do the same thing. I'm going to inject that same poison into Legends Championship Wrestling because, if I can't have control of this company, no one can!" Turner then introduced the remaining members of his team: Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash!

Hogan and Hall, who have been absent from LCW for awhile, joined Turner, Goldberg, and Page around the microphone, but Nash was absent. Turner asked Hall where Nash was, and Hall whispered in his ear as a staffer rolled a TV into the room. Turner said that Nash had recorded a video.

On the video, Nash explained that he'd be unable to take part in the match due to contractual obligations with TNA Wrestling, but he had found a suitable replacement. Sean Waltman then appeared. Nash said he'd be with his nWo brothers in spirit and wished them all luck in the WarGames match.

Turner also announced that this Wednesday, the complete card would be announced on LegendsWrestling.com.

But for now, the main event WarGames: Last Chance match for the LCW Caged Heat 2009 pay-per-view is set: LCW Universal Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin, Magnum TA, Nikita Koloff, Macho Man Randy Savage, and Bret Hart vs. Bill Goldberg, LCW United States Champion Diamond Dallas Page, Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, and Sean Waltman.
