PRESTORY:
The legend killer challenge was a Cyber Saturday staple created by
Randy Orton. In 2009 when Orton was world champion, his father Bob
partnered with Chris Jericho to continue the challenge. Now with Orton
in another scheduled match the Legend Killer Challenge was fixing to be
abandoned for the first time ever but at the last moment, FPR Management
decided to uphold the challenge to anyone that wanted to square off
against a legend in order to keep the tradition alive. The man who
stepped up to the plate turned out to be the Beast Incarnate, Brock
Lesnar! Lesnar has had his share of run ins with legends, most recently
dominating a feud with the Rock before taking a couple months off. Now,
Lesnar is back to make another statement. Lesnar is no stranger to Cyber
Saturday or memorable moments at the event, notably last year when he
performed an F5 on Big Bird inside the Octagon. Now it's up to you to
match Brock up with any legend in wrestling history for what is sure to
be a memorable battle!
VOTE RESULT: The fans voted Andre the Giant into the big battle with Lesnar!

prepared for such a giant challenge and Andre didn't waste any time
finishing this one.
---------------------------------------------
PRESTORY:
The Big Show has been unstoppable for well over a year as International
Champion. Last year at Cyber Saturday, voting led to a tie and Show
even still overcame two enormous challenges at once. Now it is once
again your chance to find the one to dethrone the Big Show by voting in
his next challenger. It's all up to you!
VOTE RESULT: The fans voted Triple H into the match with the Big Show!
International Championship Match: The Big Show def. Triple H (19:00) after a lariat to RETAIN the championship.
AFTERSTORY:
Triple H came close, closer than anyone could've expected really but he
just wasn't able to keep the Big Show down. After the match, Wade
Barrett and Curtis Axel of the Nexus, who have had problems recently
with Big Show, attacked him again to leave him laying. In a post-match
interview, Triple H vowed to capture the International Championship
challenging Show to a rematch.
---------------------------------------------
PRESTORY:
Ayako Hamada is always a force to be reckoned with in the women's
division and she had been on fire as of late. After scoring the victory
in a four way at the Great American Bash and picking up the pinfall in
an eight woman tag at Final Burns, Hamada was on a major roll heading
into the Queen's Cup. Hamada took out several challengers before falling
in the semi-finals to eventual winner Victoria. Along the way, Hamada
became somewhat of a target and now she has got several wanting a shot
at her. Now it will be up to you to determine who faces Hamada at Cyber
Saturday. The choices will be Melanie Cruise, who has sworn she can beat
Hamada despite coming up short in back to back losses to her; Mayumi
Ozaki, who debuted in the Queen's Cup and turned her focus to Hamada at
the Ultimate Encounter looking to make a major statement; Ivelisse
Velez, who was pinned by Hamada in the eight woman tag at Final Burns
which has since left her in frustration; and lastly Jessie McKay, who
threw her name into the mix at the last minute looking to make a name
for herself as well in what would be a competition between friends. The
choice is yours as to who Hamada faces on this blockbuster event!
VOTE RESULT: 40% of the fans chose Ivelisse Velez to give her a chance at redemption in a one on one singles match with Hamada!
Ayako Hamada def. Ivelisse Velez (10:54) with a magistral rollup
AFTERSTORY:
Hamada again downs Ivelisse! Unfortunately for Ivelisse she remains
unable to overcome Hamada and her recent frustrations continue. After
the match, Mayumi Ozaki and Melanie Cruise stood on the stage watching
as Hamada celebrated her victory. Despite not being chosen, they clearly
plan to continue on against Hamada.

battles. Punk beat Orton in the semi finals of the Road 2 GAB
tournament which Orton did not take lightly. They rematched at Final
Burns where Orton reigned victorious - earning himself a shot at the
world championship. Orton was not successful against Austin and after
the match Punk hit the ring and cleared Orton from the ring before
shouting that he would get the next shot. FPR Management decided it was
clear that things were left unsettled between the two so they were
matched up for the big Cyber Saturday event and now you choose whether
they compete in a two out of three falls match, a last man standing
match, steel cage match, or a barbed wire ropes match!

Perhaps the most unlikely of hardcore deathmatch champions, as part of
Ric Flair's mission to gain gold for the Horsemen he threw himself into
the mix back at WrestleMania in the open invitational. Flair came within

which two months and two wins later he did just that. Flair has managed

since his first appearance earlier in the year and playing mind games,
waiting until his opportune moment to strike. Kanemaru's first big
in-ring action saw him upset AJ Styles in a thrilling match that showed
he had gotten into AJ's head. The two met in a rematch at the Great
American Bash where Styles brutalized Kanemaru in a last man standing
match that put him out of action. Kanemaru returned at the Ultimate
Encounter and stole a fatal four way victory to go on and defeat Robert
Evans for the junior championship. Now Kanemaru has the target on his
back with longtime rival AJ Styles, former champs Robert Evans and

gets the first shot at Kanemaru is all up to you!
VOTE RESULT:
It was a four way TIE between Jushin Liger, Rey Mysterio, AJ Styles,
and Petey Williams! Styles was beyond thrilled when he heard his name
called to get in the ring with Kanemaru again this time for the title.
Liger is no stranger to the title and Cyber Saturday while Rey had
already earned a shot earlier in the night. Petey Williams would be a
wildcard as he has been aligned with Kanemaru so he would have some
backup in some form!

months. Petey nailed the Canadian Destroyer on Kanemaru and then shocked
Styles with another to capture the title for himself. Kanemaru was
irate following the match that his master plan fell apart at the hands
of who he thought was his own henchman. Kanemaru as well as AJ Styles
have already been demanding title shots but Rey Mysterio will get
another shot stemming from the cruiserweight battle royal victory. For
now, Petey Williams is now on top of the junior division!
---------------------------------------------
PRESTORY:
Last month the tag team division was rocked when the freshly formed
full of momentum tag team of Antonio Cesaro and Jack Swagger shocked the
audience by twice defeating 8 month long reigning tag team champions
Hulk Hogan & John Cena. Hogan & Cena had been unstoppable all
year and even defeated Cesaro & Swagger in their first challenge at
Final Burns in August. The duo would not back down however and vowed
that they could beat the champs when they issued another challenge. They
first got the victory in a non title match which earned them the tag
titles shot in the main event of the Ultimate Encounter where Cesaro
& Swagger became the new FPR Tag Team Champions. The former champs

waiting for a rematch!
---------------------------------------------
PRESTORY:
Daizee Haze has dominated the women's division for most of the year

and forth switch with rival Sara Del Rey, Daizee emerged as the clear
winner of that feud and now anticipates her next challenge which will be
whoever you choose to vote into the match!

AFTERSTORY:
CM PUNK HAS DONE IT!!! The nearly two year reign of dominance from
Stone Cold has ended in spectacular fashion! One year after he was voted
into the title match at Cyber Saturday 2012, Punk rights the wrong in
2013! What a night it was for CM Punk in three matches. Punk lost to
rival Randy Orton but bounced back with a brutal beating of Kenny King
and capped it all off by capturing the worlds heavyweight championship!
Needless to say Randy Orton was not pleased that Punk was not only voted
in but won the title and he is demanding the first shot. Stone Cold is
going to want his rematch as well and Punk's first defense may be in yet
another triple threat battle! Punk, who was bloodied in the barbed wire
match, had his cut reopened early by a Hogan punch in the main event.
In the end, Punk sat in the ring with blood on his face and a smile as
he clutched on to his newly won FPR Worlds Heavyweight Championship and
the crowd roared in approval!
