(Video shows highlights from various matches of Dean Ambrose while we hear a voice over.)
Voice Over: Dean Ambrose from Cincinatti, OH. Considered a loose cannon. This young man with 5 years in the business is a senstion on the independent circuit. Don't take his vicious in ring style for granted. He is well versed in mat wrestling as well. Combined with the devastating Emerald Flowsion. He has all the tools to be a star in the UWF.Saxton: A closer look there at one Dean Amrose. Right now we are going to show you the ending of the Negro League's match up with Santino Marella and Bruno Sammartino from the last HLW TV.(Clips are shown from the match including the finish where Santinio was planted with a Powerslam by Brodus Clay. also we see post match clips of Medics helping an injured Santino.)
AW: My man Santino seemed to be in a whole lotta pain.
Saxton: Well we have learned Santino suffered a badly separated a shoulder and needed surgery to repair ligament damage. He will not be able to wrestle for several months. But when we return we will see two men who can wrestle. Rising Star hopeful Big E. Langston will face HLW veteran Chris Candido.Commercial plays for Hulu.com
Saxton: We're back for our main event. Abe do you think Langston can beat a polished veteran like Chris Candido?
AW: It's possible. I think Big E can beat anyone but I wouldn't bet on it. Candido is a world class competitor.
Saxton: Lets hear what both men had to say earlier.Langston: Chris Candido. Big Deal! I'm already a junior member of the Negro League. I'm no rookie. I shouldn't even be in this competition. All you're doing is making me angry. Y'all ain't gonna like it when I'm angry.Candidio: (Taping his wrists)
What? What do you wanna know? My thoughts on the match? Really? (Candido walks off shaking his head.)
