At The Derby - Derby City Wrestling recap for February 25, 2024

General Manager Jonny Loquasto is in the ring to start this week's show. He states that as General Manager, he felt that the perfect way to kick off this week was to bring out an individual who has been the face of the United Wrestling Network for over 400 days and has clawed his way up from the bottom to reach the pinnacle and become the United World Champion: Danny Limelight. Limelight heads to the ring, and asks the fans if they missed him before stating that he has not spent his entire time at home, as he has been on a world tour with the United World Championship. He states that he has been champion for over 400 days and has taken the title to Mexico, Puerto Rico and all the states in-between to be a fighting champion for himself as well as the fans. Limelight runs down his title defenses, such as Moose, Clark Connors, "Filthy" Tom Lawlor, "Outlandish" Zicky Dice, and Eddie Kingston, then mentions that the Red Carpet Rumble is around the corner and that someone else will be after his title. He brings up Slice Boogie, then mentions that he is first Golden Opportunity and the World Champion and that Slice is playing a game of "anything you can do, I can do better." Limelight then says that he or anyone who steps up for the title will get put down. As Loquasto declares that Limelight will be defending his championship next week, Slice Boogie shows up. He says the time for rice and beans and pina coladas is over, then says "I'm your papi now!" and wants Limelight for the world title tonight. Loquasto acknowledges that Slice has a shot at the world title, but announces that he is not Limelight's opponent next week. That opponent is announced to be "Pretty" Peter Avalon, the longest reigning Heritage Champion. Slice Boogie tells Avalon he is in a good mood when he shows up. Avalon tells Slice Boogie that he admires his confidence and says that he is talented, and if he wins the title, he will gladly defend it against him. He then says it is him and Limelight next week, and that he will leave with the title and "that is deadass." Limelight states that "PPA" will soon stand for "Papi pins Avalon."

Banning says that is fine with him, as he gets to teach Honest John one fnal lesson. When Banning walks off, it is revealed that Honest John has been overhearing him in secret.

"Poppin'" EJ Sparks beats "Highly Recommended" Cameron Gates.

We hear from Jordan Cruz, who says Ju Dizz beating him means absolutely nothing and that he was right to cross him all along. He says he is still the baddest man in the locker room and that his fire is fueled even further, and if anyone thought he had a mean streak before, they haven't seen anything yet. We hear from "Timeless" Levi Shapiro and Rob McKnight, and Shapiro says that they are coming back to the United Wrestling Network to wreak all kinds of havoc and beat all of the tag teams. Rob McKnight says that when they step in the ring, everyone had better watch out.
