The TCW Championship defense at SLAMilton on Saturday, 4 October, will forever be remembered as the moment resilience met brutal punishment. Champion Lucky, who had established a record for title defences and maintained an incredible near year-long undefeated streak, faced his deadliest challenger: the debuting veteran, Rob Drake.
The Price of Survival
Rob Drake’s arrival was the toughest test Lucky has ever encountered. The Champion was pushed past his breaking point, enduring a sustained, heavy-hitting assault from the “King of Bedlam.” It took every ounce of fight, skill, and sheer desperation from Lucky to survive, ultimately requiring a definitive three Trouble in Paradise kicks to finally put Drake down and secure the pinfall.
His survival came at the ultimate price.
The Conspiracy Executed
The full match footage shows the exact level of damage Lucky sustained, which directly led to the tragedy. In his weakened state, he was easily preyed upon by the conspiring GL2, whose calculated beatdown left him defenceless. This was the final step of the plot, allowing H Hood to execute his cash-in and steal the TCW Championship.
This match is a pivotal piece of TCW history. Watch the full fight to see the punishment that ended Lucky’s glorious era and exposed the ruthless plot that now defines the new regime.
