Abyss vs. Mr. Anderson
Crowd with a ‘over rated’ chant. This match is very slow and boring, and Anderson is not impressive. Abyss goes to bring a chair in the ring, but the ref stops him, and as the ref is putting the chair back to the floor, Anderson clocks Abyss with brass knucks, and Anderson gets the pin.

Anyone reading, I sincerely apologize for the lack of effort I put into this report. This show was very slow, and very boring. It’s like someone punched TNA right in the balls.
