Commissioner Baker makes his way back out to the ring and talks about how “The Golden Boy” Greg Anthony ruthlessly beat Stan Lee last week. Stan comes to the ring as a video of the Golden Boy plays on the projector. Greg tells Stan that he’s willing to kill for the title, and asks if Stan is willing to die for it. Commissioner Baker gives Stan the mic to allow him to express how he feels. He says that his actions usually speak for him in the ring, but he says that lately he’s been feeling unusual. He said that he took a shower last week after the match, and watched the blood pour from his head filling the shower red. He asked himself, “Why not give up Stan?” He thought and thought, and then he thought of something else. Even though the economy is bad, everyone still shows up to see him every week. Everyone could easily use their admission money for something else, but they come to see him, so he’ll never quit on them. He says that next week, he’s begging Greg Anthony to bring everything he has, because everything that Greg has done to him will be given back ten times worse. Stan says that there are two options for Greg. He can get beat down in the middle of the ring, or he can live to fight another day and just say “I Quit” next week at Valentines Vengeance. J.R Manson’s music hits as he makes his way to the ring. He begs Stan for another chance against him. He says he’s sorry for what happened the previous week and he’s been taking his medication so he’s ready to compete again. After a minute of thinking, Stan agrees to have his match. As soon as the match starts, J.R extends a hand out to Stan, and they shake. As Stan returns to the corner of the ring, J.R attacks Stan in the back. After J.R backs Stan in the corner and doesn’t answer a 5 count, he is disqualified. Stan Lee wins the match by a disqualification. Stan leaves as J.R is in the ring taunting Stan about his match with The Golden Boy next week. After a little more taunting, Stan comes back out and beats J.R out of the ring.

Idol Bane makes his way to the ring, saying that he made a challenge to Cody Melton to have a tables match next week. After a bit of talking, Phoenix X jumps off the ring post and hits a dropkick to Idol as their match starts, This match doesn’t last long, as Idol quickly gains control of the match and defeats Phoenix X.

The main event of the night was the 5 Starr Showcase featuring Dustin Starr, Maxx Corbin and the Albino Rhino, against Picture Perfect featuring Christian Jacobs, Chris O’Neal and Jon Michael. Chris O’Neal is still in bandages after his run-in with Genocide a couple of weeks back. He tags himself in, only to have Genocide go to work once again on his ribcage. After a while, the match gets out of control with all 6 men in corners of the ring. Genocide then gathers themselves together and throw themselves at an unsuspecting Chris O’Neal, but Christian Jacobs pushes Chris O’Neal out of the way and takes the hit, then gets pinned. A chair is brought into the ring and Chris O’Neal and C.J beat Genocide out of the ring with it as the night ends.

There were around 100 fans in the crowd.

----Even though we did not get results from the 1.31.09 show, I was told they had 180-200 in the building last week. All shows did real well last weekend; what's up with that??...Love the Lee interview!! If it comes off anything like it was written in the report. It reminded me of the interviews that hardcore Japanese legend Onita [well what people said he was saying..LOL]use to do. He would thank everyone for coming and such. Then after the shows he would cry and tell everyone how much he loved them and wrestling. I wonder if Lee is going to do that??
