The Return Of “The Ultimate X” For The #1 Contender To The X Championship: Matt Bentley vs. Petey Williams vs. Chris Sabin
Matt Bentley, aka Shawn Michaels's nephew or cousin or something, is the self proclaimed master of the Ultimate X match, seen below. He won the first two versions of the innovative high wire bout by climbing hand over hand across a cable to retrieve the giant "X" suspended in the center. On Sunday, he's back to win the match that made him... sort of notable, and to claim top contention for the X Division Championship.

Okay, so it's a belt in this case, not a big red "X". I SWEAR it exists. I'll prove it!

Yeah, fine. That's Matt Bentley, again without the big red "X". I SWEAR IT'S REAL, THOUGH! Andrew's seen it!
Aside from Bentley, also competing in the match is Petey Williams, former X Division Champion, captain of Team Canada, and the man who delivers perhaps the most spectacularly goofy move in the history of wrestling, "The Canadian Destroyer."

That's Petey Williams. No, he's not holding a giant red "X" either, but there's one on his belt. Does that count for anything?
Rounding out the match is Detroit, Michigan's own... Mick Collins.

Can Collins hold the match together with his superior ring psychology? YOU FIND OUT!
Okay, that's bullshit. Mick Collins isn't going to be wrestling. But the other competitor IS from Michigan, and he is... CHRIS SABIN!

Hey, there's the big red "X!" I feel like Grover on the last pages of "There's a Monster at the End of This Book." Good for me.
So, the date, Sunday, October 23rd. The place, mine. The time, 7:30 pm. The event: TNA Wrestling Presents BOUND FOR GLORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, that was beautiful. References to Mick Collins, Grover, and myself? Awesome.
I'm confused, is Matt Bentley someone new (to me) or did Michael Shane get a new name?
qdlnsdg. They are making this harder and harder. Is it one's mom yelling at you to "Quit downloading sausage?"
It's Michael Shane under a new name. Good catch on the old persona, though.
Why did he change his name?
It was pretty stupid, really. WWE brought in two guys named the Shane Twins to developmental, and they threatened legal action against Michael Shane, because that's not his real name. So he just decided to go by his birth name.
Yes, that IS stupid. He really should just go to WWE, there's all kinds of storyline opportunities with the very versatile HBK.
