Kensworth: Welcome, everyone, to London, England! We are now just an hour away from literally the biggest match in the WZCW calendar, and the official start on the road to Kingdom Come! I am, of course, Leon Kensworth and I will be guiding you through the build up to the Lethal Lottery. but such a job can't be done by just person. With me tonight, I am honoured to be sitting alongside WZCW Hall of Famer, Everest!
the camera cuts to the WZCW Legend as he smiles widely.
Everest: Thanks for having me, Leon. It really is a massive honor be here tonight. And I just cannot wait to see what's going to happen. There is so much to be won and lost. I love it!
Kensworth: Well, with the Lethal Lottery being such a massive occasion in the WZCW calendar, all systems have been set to go recently. In the last few weeks, we have seen everyone really bring their A game. Tonight, we the end of some things and, more importantly, we see the start of others. You simply can't understate the importance of this event.
Everest: Let me tell you something, Leon. The Lethal Lottery much is just as important as the main event of Kingdom Come. Look to the past and you'll find that this match and this event has been the watershed moments for the very best in the business. Hall of Fame superstars like Titus and Showtime Cougar won this event and went on to headline the biggest match of the year. You're right, everyone has been bringing it big time recently and I can't wait to see who is going to be making a name for themselves tonight.
The camera pans back to a solitary shot of Leon as he fiddles with his paperwork.
Kensworth: Needless to say, The Lethal Lottery match is the crowning glory of this event and 30 superstars will try their hand at winning it; whilst claiming their ticket to the main event of Kingdom Come. But tonight, we will also fond out the answer to will meet them there. Theron Daggershield and John Constantine meet for only the second time in their history to see who will be the World Champion at Kingdom Come. Constantine has been on a tear as of late, taking out the likes of Dorian Slaughter and Ty Burna. The former World Champion has his sights set on reclaiming that Championship but standing in his way is the hero of WZCW.
Everest: What a Championship match that promises to be, Leon. Let me tell you something, I'm a massive fan of both of these guys. Both have earned their spot in the match and neither will want to lose, that's for sure. Some people have put this right down to good versus evil and it'll definitely be interesting to see who can claim the Championship. I know from experience how daunting it can be headlining Kingdom Come but both of these guys have to put it to the back of their minds and just get the job done.
Kensworth: Absolutely, a match like that could easily be the main event of Kingdom Come but you'll see it all tonight. But before we get onto anything else, I want to send you backstage to where WZCW superstars are dropping by to pick up their Lottery entrance numbers.

We cut backstage to see a few WZCW superstars waiting patiently for the door to open to the back office so that they can claim their numbers. Finally, the door open to reveal a tombola with all of the balls already in it. Behind the tombola, the familiar face of Becky Serra stands clutching at the handle.
Serra: Okay, listen up because I'm only going to say this once.
the queue of people immediately quieten down as Becky clears her throat.
Serra: You may draw only one ball from the hat. The number you get is the number you get. You cannot draw the number one entry as this has been promised to Max Steele. Trading, stealing... It's all off limits. Once again, the number you get is the number you get...
Becky begins spinning the handle until Titus makes his way past the people waiting and into the room first. Titus looks confident about his luck and sticks his hand into the tombola.
Serra: Lethal Lottery has been kind to Titus in the past. Is it going to be lucky now?
Titus finally grabs a ball and pulls it from the tombola. He opens it then closes it immediately. He gives a slight grimace as John Doe pushes past him into the room and sticks his hand into the pot. Grabbing a number, Doe pulls it out of the tombola and cracks it open. Beneath his mask, a smile can be seen. Behind him, wrestles begin to crowd the room, looking to get their hands on the best numbers. Suddenly, Titus crashes into the back of Doe; knocking the ball from his hand.
Titus: I'm so sorry about that! Here, let me get that for you.
Titus reaches down and reclaims the ball on the ground before handing it off to Doe. He pats him on the shoulder as he walks past Becky and shows her the number; his grimace now turning to a wide smile. Becky jots down the number and Titus walks away.
Titus: Good luck!

We cut back to Leon and Everest at the Kick Off table but they seem to be joined by none other than Logan McAllister. McAllister is smiling widely as some of the fans who have made their way into the arena begin chanting towards him.
Kensworth: Well, not everything as it seems backstage and I have a feeling that John Doe might have just fallen victim to the experience of former Lethal Lottery winner Titus. And speaking of people who may not have a lot of experience, we are now joined by WZCW rookie Logan McAllister!
McAllister: Inexperienced, Leon? I don't think so. Not only have I watched every Lethal Lottery event in preparation for the match, I've learned everything there is to learn about WZCW in the months I've been here. Let me tell you something, Leon, I've got all the momentum I need heading into this match and I've got everything to play for!
Everest and Leon turn towards Logan as he continues his diatribe.
McAllister: People can say whatever they want about me and my chances heading into the match but no one knows what I'm fighting for. This match represents the greatest opportunity of my career and I fully intend on taking advantage of it and headlining Kingdom Come. Mark my words, Leon, I'm walking into that match and I'm leaving as the number one contender to the World Heavyweight Championship. Constantine or Theron Daggershield, it doesn't matter; Kingdom Come is going to be my coming of age...
At that, the unmistakeable figure of Vee A.D.Z makes his way onto the screen, cutting off Logan in his prime and standing with a confident look on his face.
McAllister: Well, look who it is, Leon. Mr losing streak himself...
Logan gives a s****** towards Vee as he jokingly mocks him. But it doesn't look as though Vee has forgotten the after match attack that Logan dished out only weeks ago. Both competitors move towards each other as Logan tosses his chair out of the way and they square up.
Vee: The funny thing is, I may have had a losing streak. But you were the one that I beat to end it. So who does that say more about? Me, the guy who couldn't get a win. Or you, the guy that lost to the guy who couldn't win? Face it Logan, you don't belong here. Maybe you and your kid should call it quits before someone gets really hurt...
Logan and Vee continue to square up as it is looks as though things are about to get nasty. However, Logan suddenly moves back from Vee with a smile on his face.
McAllister: We'll see what happens when we get to the ring, won't we? Leon, thanks for having me but its about time I go and pick the winning number!
With that, Logan walks off of the stage and is soon followed by the smiling Vee. Leon gives Everest a shrug as we go to a break.
