DCW Preparation

Preparation was a pay-per-view event held on January 25, 2009, from Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York. The event was advertised as the biggest event of the 2009 calendar, although two months later, DCW announced that World Danger would be DCW's biggest event ever and Preparation would be cancelled. The main event of the evening was a Royal Rumble Match that was won by Shane Douglas. The main match on the undercard was Jeff Hardy defending the DCW World Heavyweight Championship against Triple H. The event also featured Vampiro's return from injury.
