Steal This Match! - Kingston and Hero Collide

4.7.07 Chris Hero vs Eddie Kingston (CZW – Loser Leaves Town match) I cannot believe that I of all people am telling you to steal a match from CZW. First off, I’ve gone through my hardcore period with the original ECW and burned out on it. Second, I became more of a purist a few [...]
