[Breaking News] LCW Founder Christian Calaway Announces WarGames Squad

With control of the company that he founded on the line in a WarGames match at LCW Caged Heat that is being dubbed "WarGames: Last Chance", LCW Founder Christian Calaway today named the members of his five-man WarGames squad and challenged his rival for control of the company, LCW Chairman of the Board Ted Turner, to name the members of his squad. LegendsWrestling.com contacted Mr. Turner's office and was informed that Turner would announce the members of his five-man WarGames squad closer to the date of the event.

Calaway made the announcement this afternoon from LCW Headquarters in Sacramento, CA, flanked by the five men he trusted most to defend his position in his war with Turner: LCW Universal Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin, Magnum TA, Nikita Koloff, Macho Man Randy Savage, and Bret Hart. The most surprising selection, even though it shouldn't be much of surprise considering his storied past as a World Champion, was Hart. Hart's selection was the most surprising second only perhaps to Austin considering his past history with Calaway.

Hart has only recently returned to the singles division after a long run in the LCW tag team division with former Hart Foundation tag team partner, Jim The Anvil Neidhart. Calaway said in an interview with LegendsWrestling.com after the announcement was made this afternoon that he was proud of Hart's decisive win over the Dynamite Kid at the LCW Beach Brawl pay-per-view earlier this month (click here for the complete results) and was certain the former World Champion would help him regain control of his company.
