This is the OVW Report for the September 23, 2017 Matt Cappotelli Benefit Show!

Your announcers for tonight are Gilbert Corsey & KCand KC is ring announcer.

Gilbert Corsey comes out to talk about how special tonight is. He talks about how brain cancer cut Matt Cappotelli's in-ring career short, but he transitioned from wrestler to coach, and continues to help the new talent. He is now in his second fight with cancer and every dollar from every ticket will go to help Matt's battle. He brings out Rocco Bellagio. Rocco says he is good friends with Matt, and thanks everyone for being here. He says he knows Matt will beat this again, and it will be Matt-2, Cancer-0.
Robbie Walker comes out and interrupts and says this show is a sham. He says we should just wait 5 years and have another one. Robbie says he had Matt's friend, John Morrison (or Mundo or Impact, or whatever name he's going by this week) beat and Matt came out and interfered because he knew he was better than Matt could ever be. He then says something about the fans being stupid just like Matt's old broad. Rocco gets furious and says how about he kicks his butt tonight. Robbie said he didn't come to compete, but he accepts and will show Matt that he never needed him.
