Championship Gold - Championship Wrestling presented by CarShield recap for July 9, 2023

Jordan Cruz beats Rob McKnight to qualify for the Golden Opportunity Tournament. During the match, Dylan Bostic shows up and watches from the stage, which gets the attention of Rob McKnight and almost costs McKnight the match. After the match, Dylan Bostic praises Jordan Cruz for being almost as good as he is before declaring him the winner of the match himself.

We see a video package for Dylan Bostic.

Jonny Loquasto is in the ring. He says that the 2023 Golden Opportunity Tournament is on the horizon, with three wild entries while the rest are competitors who have competed and qualified. Loquasto announces that the United Wrestling Network has its first wild card entrant in the tournament: "Outlandish" Zicky Dice, who shows up before Loquasto can mention him. Zicky Dice says he did not need the warm welcome, because he is "over as hell." He then teases what is in his fanny pack before yelling "Tough shit!", then says this is his time now and that there is nobody here who can shut him up. When the fans boo him, he says that the booing does not hurt him and that it actually turns him on. Zicky also prays that the UWN stops accepting food stamps as payment to watch the show, then says he is sick and tired of being underutilitized, making everyone laugh and his peers passing him up. He says he should have a load of merchandise, then says it should be no surprise that he is a wild card entrant and that it is his time now. Zicky states that it does not matter who his opponent is, as there is nobody in the United Wrestling Network who will take his opportunity away from him, as he is the future face of the company and it is time everyone saw "another side of the Dice." Zicky then demands that Loquasto wishes him luck in the tournament, which Loquasto does, then Zicky Dice says he does not need luck. Zicky turns to leave, then nearly punches Loquasto in the face.

Brynn Thorne beats Mylo with the Rings of Saturn.

Backstage, Megan Harmon interviews Kevin Blackwood. Blackwood says it has been a rough time for him right now and all he wants to do is work, and thanks Jonny Loquasto and the United Wrestling Network when "Benevolent" Jack Banning shows up. He says it is about time Blackwood is here, but he is showing gratitude to the wrong people and that he wanted this for him, as he knows what is going on with him and he wanted this opportunity for him. He says that everyone is congratuling him for getting to wrestle Blackwood and that while some people are concerned he will lose his title, he is not one of those people, for Blackwood is in his element now and that the ring is his, and thratens to gouge his eyes out if he rolls his eyes at him one more time. This leads to a staredown between Blackwood and Banning.

24K (Michael Hopkins and Miggy Rose) beat - and outsmart - The Institution (Brendan Divine and Honest John) after Brendan Divine pins Michael Hopkins only to find out that Miggy Rose is the legal man and not Hopkins, leading to Rose sneaking up behind Divine and pinning him with a schoolkid pin to win.

Backstage, Jonny Loquasto runs into Kevin Martenson and lets him that Bateman has a shot at the United Heritage Championship and that he will challenge whoever between him and Jakob Austin Young - whom Loquasto warns Martenson not to look past - tonight.

Kevin Martenson retains the United Heritage Championship against Jakob Austin Young. After the match, Martenson notices Bateman on his way out and has a confrontation with him on the stage to end the show.
