Championship Gold - Championship Wresting recap for May 4, 2023

"The Golden Boy" Jordan Clearwater heads to the ring. He is booed down and told that he sucks by the crowd as he tries to speak, then brags about how he outsmarted so many people from the championship committee down to the fans. He then states that he outsmarted the entire wrestling world when he became United World Champion one year ago, then calls Danny Limelight "some doofus who is walking around with [his] belt." Clearwater tells the fans that he is here to save them from him and that nobody entertains the fans like "The Golden Boy" does, then tells everyone to pull out their cameras and feast their eyes on pure gold before telling Limelight he is on borrowed time. He promises that he will win the United World Championship back from Danny Limelight and proclaims that this is the golden truth. Suddenly, Danny Limelight shows up. Limelight chases Clearwater out of the ring, then throws Clearwater's jacket and tie out of the ring back at him.
