Legacy of Wrestling vol. 3

Table of contents

The third Legacy of Wrestling show took place in the Tauron Arena in Kraków, on Friday, 11th of July 2025. That Friday was the first day of Ryucon 2025, a manga-themed convention which for the previous three years hosted shows by Prime Time Wrestling.

Build-up

At Legacy vol. 2 Disco Pablo confronted Taras and challanged him to a fight. Taras initially refused, but relented when Pablo gave him the choice of stipulation.
On 4.06.2025 Legacy published a video in which Taras announced his decision. The match between him and Pablo is going to be a Street Fight, with a "certain green individual" who just came back from France acting as a Special Guest Referee.
The first officially announced fight, on 30.06.2025, was David Oliwa vs Hungarian wrestler Zétény, in a Road to the Title Match.
On 2.07.2025 Legacy announced Axel Fox vs Dieter Schwartz, who previously made a few appearances for MZW shows.
The following day Legacy released a video of Marco Hammers training with Wiktor and being given a spot on the card in the title tournament, against a mystery opponent.
On 6.07.2025, Legacy's social media recalled the creation of Arek Paterek's "Press Office", and his first international client - Erik Šlotiř. Erik won his five-man match, and the Press Office demanded a more challenging opponent for him at the third show. The Czech wrestler was announced for the show, "in action" but with no further details.
On 6.07.2025 Legacy announced the main event of the show: a Six-Man Tag-Team match of Olgierd, Chemik and Gustav Gryffin vs Syriusz Dziedzic, Sambor and Bartosz Plata.
On 9.08.2025 Legacy released a video of Gabriel Queen in which he addresses Legacy's Mr Chairman, demanding a match for the title contendership - "no matter how many [opponents], no mater where, no matter how". Later that day an image was posted putting Queen in a Triple Threat Match with Oskar Alexander and Filip Fux.

Highlights

Aron Wake, despite being featured prominently on the show's poster, did not compete due to an injury sustained at MZW Green Madness. He was present in the audience, wearing his Pikachu kigurumi suit.
Max Speed received chants of "Welcome Home" on his surprise appearance. He had recently parted ways with Prime Time Wrestling to become a free agent, but did not hint at working with Legacy.
Erik Šlotíř entered with Arek Paterek, who grabbed the mic and cut a brief promo hyping his client and lightly deriding the audience for participating in activities at the convention, such as cosplay, Naruto karaoke and ramen eating competition ("Jajko to może być w żurku, a nie w rosole!" - Eggs go in żurek, not in rosół!).
When Bahraini wrestler Yaqoob entered to face Erik, Paterek grabbed the mic again and demanded explanations from Acting Chairman Wiktor. This led to him announcing that the match was now a Triple Threat, and introducing the night's second surprise contender - MZW Champion Matt Buckna, who then proceeded to make it a championship match.
One of the weapons used in Taras vs Disco Pablo were some plastic LEGO-like bricks. Some of them fell out of the ring, prompting a few children from the audience to run in and pick them up.
Special Guest Referee Boro remained impartial for the most of the match. It wasn't until Taras shoved Boro that the referee answered with a slap to his face and then proceeded to assist Disco Pablo with a tag-team move, putting Taras through a table, followed shortly thereafter with a three-count.
After the main event concluded, Gustav Gryffin stayed in the ring and cut a promo. He was interrupted by Axel Fox, who was in turn interrupted by David Oliwa, who was then interrupted by Max Speed. The four then started brawling and were quickly joined by Syriusz Dziedzic, followed by Gabriel Queen. After a short brawl, Queen was the last man standing in the ring.
