Hulk Hogan cuts a long backstage promo and promises to leave TNA if his team loses. Eric Bischoff is also apparently not at the show. Waltman isn’t at the PPV, so Hall will need a new partner, as well. Finally, we get to the “thanks for coming from ROH, here’s your PPV paycheck” match. This is escape rules, but TNA being TNA, it’s Xcape and for being in the X-Title match later tonight.
Homicide wins via escape. Brian Kendrick is upset. (** 1/2).
A regular X-Division spotfest. You’ve seen one, you’ve seen em all.
Bloody Wrestler count: 2 as Kendrick ends up bleeding here. Notably, the Guns have gotten heat before from refusing to blade, and don’t here.
