For 11/12 Episode of iMPACT!
iMPACT! opened with Monty Brown coming out. He ranted about how he deserved a title shot which led to Abyss and James Mitchell coming out. The two argued over who deserved a title shot. Then out came Jeff Hardy. The 3 men brawled but were then broken up by security.
Christopher Daniels defeated Jerrelle Clark. Good, fast paced, opening match. This match had some of the basic Clark and Daniel’s moves. The crowd was into this one. Daniels won with the Angel’s Wings.
Samoa Joe defeated Austin Aries. Christopher Daniels came out for commentary during this one. Awesome match but was too short. This match was only about 4 minutes long. This was another fast paced match with some technical stuff and a little bit of submission stuff. Joe won with the muscle buster, which led to Aries tapping out to the Katita Clutch.
Jeremy Borash then announced that at Genesis there will be an 4 way tag team X-Division match. I don’t remember the name but the match will consist of 4 tag teams facing each other.
Kip James defeated Lex Lovett. This was the shortest match of the night. I’ll be surprised if this one made it the 2 minute mark. Quick bout with the usual series of punches, kicks, irish whips, and a few drop kicks and suplexes here and there. The crowd wasn’t into this one at all. James defeated Lovett after the “Famasser.”
Petey Williams defeated AJ Styles in a Styles Clash vs. Canadian Destroyer Match. Borash announced that the only way you could win is it either opponent used their finishing move. This was a good 8 minute match. Few funny spots with D’Amore, who got nailed by the pele kick. These two can really please the crowd as everyone was standing. Petey won with the Canadian Destroyer.
Jeff Jarrett & America’s Most Wanted defeated Chris Sabin, Lance Hoyt & Jeff Hardy. This was a fun match. The crowd was hot during this entire match. Jarrett got major heat. A few violet “F*ck You’s” but it seemed as if he was expecting it. A lot of “Pussycat” chants at Harris during the match. We saw some highflying stuff from Sabin and Hardy. And Hoyt hit a nice dive onto AMW on the outside. Jarrett pinned Sabin to win the match.
After the match Jarrett and AMW beat up on the other 3. Rhino came blasting out with a chair and cleaned house. As Jarrett and AMW were backing up onto the ramp, Team 3D came out from behind them and kicked @$$. They cut rolling as Sabin, Hoyt and Hardy celebrated with Team 3D. Rhino went backstage but everyone else stayed out. Sabin, Hoyt and Hardy gave high-fives to everyone around the ring. Devon jumped out with the crowd and hung with our crowd next to the face ramp. Brother Ray threw his wrist tape out to a little kid next to me, it seems as if these guys are really trying to attract a younger audience.
