Jeff Jarrett Is Still The Man To Beat.
Frankie Kazarian vs. “Primetime” Elix Skipper
The show started off with a bang this Wednesday night with “The Future” Frankie Kazarian out to prove a point. His point being that he should have been part of Team NWA in the America’s Cup. Two weeks ago Kazarian got the victory over NWA team captain Jerry Lynn. This week, he tried to follow that victory up with a win over Elix Skipper, another member of team NWA.
As expected these two tremendous athletes put on a heck of a show. The match went back and forth, with both wrestlers putting up an incredible offense. In the end, Kazarian hit his Back to the Future finish on Skipper only to come up short of a 3 count. Just when it seemed like Skipper was going to put his opponent away with the Instant Replay, Kazarian reversed the move and grabbed the tights for the win. Of course, this wasn’t enough for Kazarian and he began to pound on Skipper after the bell. Jerry Lynn came to the aid of his teammate and ran off Kazarian.
“The Alpha Male” Monty Brown vs. Chris Vaughn
Last week, The Alpha Male, Monty Brown, made his return to TNA and made quite an impact by taking out the Insane Clown Posse, thus giving Kash, Gilberti, and Young the win. This week, the former NFL star got back in the ring for a little one on one competition with Blackshirt Security member Chris Vaughn.
Brown dominated the whole match and eventually hit the Alpha Bomb for the win. Vaughn was just overpowered the whole match. Monty looked to be in incredible condition. After the pin, Brown continued his beat down on the helpless Chris Vaughn until Heavy D came in to make the save. Monty Brown is back, and in a major way!
“The Franchis” Shane Douglas vs. Cowboy James Storm
Shane Douglas was out for revenge this Wednesday night as he tangled up with AMW’s Cowboy James Storm. Two weeks ago, Storm gave Douglas a superkick, which led to his partner Chris Harris getting the pin in a match to see if Harris was ready for a NWA title shot. The leader of the New Franchise does not forgive and definitely did not forget the actions of Storm last week.
Traci accompanied Douglas to ringside and watched on as both superstars did battle in the middle of the ring. Douglas seemed to have had victory in his grasp as he pinned Storm for more than a 3 count. The only problem was that Traci had distracted the referee a little too long and cost Douglas the victory. Storm quickly took advantage and superkicked Shane Douglas. 1 2 3, and the match was over. After realizing what Traci had done, Douglas had some choice words for her after the match. Michael Shane then got involved and you could tell there was friction among the New Franchise.
10 Man Contender Gauntlet
Vince Russo put together this match to find out an order of top contenders for the title in TNA. This match involved 10 superstars, one to come in every minute, with the object being to throw your opponent over the top rope and eliminate them. First in the ring was Siamond Diamond followed by David Young. As you already know, there is no love loss here, and this match got started off in a violent way with Diamond eventually eliminating Young from the match. Kid Kash, D Lo, and Gilberti were the next to enter the match with Kash eliminating D Lo Brown.
Sonny Siaki was the sixth TNA superstar to make his way into the Gauntlet. Little did he know, Raven was going to send a message to Russo by giving the Evenflow DDT to Siaki in the middle of the ring. Gilberti quickly capitalized on this and threw Siaki over the top. Michael Shane, Konnan, and Ron “The Truth” Killings were the next to enter the gauntlet, with Konnan eliminating Kash and Gilberti eliminating Konnan. Diamond quickly extracted a little revenge on Gilberti by eliminating him from the ring. And then, there were four. Just before the time was up, Swinger ran to the ring and took out his former tag team partner. With all of his focus on Diamond, Killings was able to eliminate Swinger from the gauntlet. This left Killings to take on Michael Shane, only this time, there must be a pinfall or submission.
Shane Douglas made his way to ringside to watch over his New Franchise partner, Michael Shane. Although Michael didn’t seem to need any help, Douglas threw a chain to his protégé for an edge in the match. Michael Shane threw back the chain to Douglas and was eventually pinned by Killings. The win put Ron “The Truth” Killings at the top of the list here in TNA. Again, there was more conflict between Douglas and Shane following the match.
Abyss vs. AJ Styles (Number 1 Contender Ladder Match
The rivalry between AJ Styles and Abyss has been growing here in TNA and it all came to a boiling point Wednesday night in a ladder match to determine the number one contender for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. It was Power vs. Agility in this match. With the contract for a title shot hanging from the ceiling, these 2 superstars battled it out in one of the best matches in TNA history.
AJ pulled out all the stunts in attempt to keep the monster, Abyss down on the mat. Even the Styles Clash couldn’t stop the big man, but a sunset flip off the top of the ladder by Styles, sent Abyss crashing through two steel chairs. Just when it seemed that Styles was going to grab the contract for the win, Raven got his attention long enough to allow Abyss to knock the ladder over, sending Abyss to the concrete floor. Raven got Vince Russo’s attention again while Abyss grabbed the paperwork, which will send him to a match with the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, Jeff Jarrett.
“Wildcat” Chris Harris vs. Jeff Jarrett (NWA Title Match
All eyes were on this World Heavyweight Title match between Chris Harris and Jeff Jarrett, including James Storm, Abyss, Ron Killings, and Vince Russo. It was time to see if Vince Russo got Harris prepared enough for the biggest match of his young career. It was experience vs. youth in a match that saw overwhelming determination from each superstar.
Both Storm and Russo got a ringside view of the match, but Storm was sent packing by TNA officials. This might have been the best match of the year so far here in TNA, with both athletes putting it all on the line. Nothing could keep these two competitors shoulders on the ground, not even shot with a chair or the championship belt. Storm returned in the end to superkick the Champ in the face, which had the fans in a frenzy.
Harris was about to make the 3 count when all of a sudden Raven showed up again and pulled the referee out of the ring. While all this was taking place, Jarrett snuck to the outside and grabbed his trusty guitar, which he smashed over Harris’s head, giving him the win and thus retaining the gold. Raven had struck again and definitely got the attention of Vince Russo, but Russo promised that there would be hell to pay next week.
