    The Slap Heard Around The BT Sports Studio\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Some matches are the result of long, drawn out feuds often involving gripping<\/em> storylines. Sometimes one person finds another backstage and slaps them as hard as they can for no apparent reason. That\u2019s what Flash Morgan Webster<\/strong> did to Wolfgang<\/strong> last week and why the two will meet in the ring this week. <\/span>
    \n<\/span>
    \n<\/span>There\u2019s an outside chance that Webster is trying to take out Wolfgang and steal his spot in the Heritage Cup No.1 Contender Tournament. But, that would possibly be reading too much into it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
