Can Willow prove to be better than Fall of Entertainment, or will Kane's size and power be too much for the crazed man?</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">MATCH SIX</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> TNA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> TAG TEAM MATCH</span></strong></p><p><strong> </strong><span>http://imageshack.com/a/img35/1038/v9ml.jpg</span><span>http://imageshack.com/a/img853/7069/0hu1.jpg</span><strong> vs. </strong><span>http://imageshack.com/a/img440/5249/55zt.jpg</span><span>http://imageshack.com/a/img12/5681/p1oz.jpg</span></p><p><strong> Sick & Twisted © vs. Modern Day Heroes</strong></p><p> <em>This one sees the first title defense of Darren Rosser and Rompo, who have been consistent winners for Fall of Entertainment.

Rompo's powerhouse abilities came in handy and were a nice support for Darren Rosser's cunning style. Cody Rhodes managed to land a Disaster Kick to take Rompo off the ropes, and then the Cross Rhodes on D-Ross, but D-Ross caught the rope break to break the pin. Hurricane Helms' age was definitely showing more than ever in this one, but he fought hard to help his partner out and continue their excellent chemistry. Rhodes thought he had the match one when he went to pin D-Ross after another Cross Rhodes, but Rompo tugged on the foot of the referee until Cody got off D-Ross. Rosser crawled to his corner.

Styles started things off with a flurry of kicks, but Morgan managed a few capture suplexes. AJ kept coming, fighting at him with knees and fists in an attempt to stall the big man. As things progressed, Matt Morgan became more obsessed. He went for nearfall after nearfall, and landed the Carbon Footprint for a close two count. He went for it again, but AJ ducked and landed an instant Pele Kick.

Morgan hooked him up for a Suplex, but Styles headed to the top rope and backflipped off, catching Morgan for a DDT half-way thorough. Styles landed the Styles Clash, for the third time in the match.

TNA IMPACT WRESTLING

Thursday, Week 1, December 2014

AK Sullivan Arena

6,606 fans!

 

The show is led in by Mike Tenay, Jim Ross, and Taz. As soon as they're done talking, TNA Owner Paul Heyman's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring to mark his 1 Year Anniversary in control of the company.

 

Paul Heyman: "Tonight! We continue to move in this glorious direction we have been moving in. TNA's fanbase has increased since I arrived, and I intend to keep that true for years to come. With help from our investors, I can handle everything while someone else handles finances, which we all know I can't do."

 

The fans pop and laugh at Heyman's joke.

 

Paul Heyman: "Nevertheless, we're starting things out with eight Knockouts who have been itching to be on television. As the night rolls on, you will notice that the roster here is completely different than it was when I arrived, and this is nothing but a benefit for our fans, and our wrestlers, alike. Tonight, ten men will fight to prove themselves worthy of contention for AJ Styles' World Heavyweight Championship. Please, as always, enjoy the WRESTLING."

 

A huge pop for Heyman as he exits the ring.

Rating: 70

Heyman improvised well.

 

Match 1

Eight-Woman Tag Team Match

Alissa Flash, Awesome Kong, Beth Phoenix, and Gail Kim vs. Rosita, Melina Perez & The Beautiful People

 

The KOs made their return to the ring tonight, and in a pretty big way. The match ended with a big brawl, that saw Kong clothesline TBP over the top rope, and Flash and Kim fight with Melina on the outside. This left Beth Phoenix in the ring with Rosita, it was all over.

 

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Alissa Flash, Awesome Kong, Beth Phoenix and Gail Kim defeated Rosita, Melina Perez and The Beautiful People in 5:44 when Beth Phoenix defeated Rosita by pinfall with a Glam Slam.

Rating: 43

 

The shot cuts backstage and shows Darren Rosser and Rompo tossing Hurricane Helms around backstage. He takes a pretty big bump off of a steel rail of some sort, and is left busted open. Sick & Twisted continue the attack, leaving Helms in a pool of his own blood.

Rating: 45

 

Match 2

Singles Match

Jimmy Rave vs. "Perfect Jr." Joe Hennig

 

Perfect Jr. was in control for most of this one, but Jimmy Rave showed off his skills and proved he deserves to still be in the X-Division here in TNA. He impressed a few times, but fell victim to the Hennig Plex, which Joe held for the pinfall.

 

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Joe Hennig defeated Jimmy Rave in 6:39 by pinfall with a Hennig Plex.

Rating: 50

 

Match 3

Singles Match

Cody Rhodes vs. Kenny King

 

This match was completely one-sided, as Cody Rhodes released that his tag team partner would be no more after Sick & Twisted's actions tonight. He wanted to punish someone, and Kenny King was his victim. King was tossed around the ring, Cody was in fine form and finished him after three Beautiful Disaster kicks.

 

In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Cody Rhodes defeated Kenny King in 8:10 by pinfall with The Beautiful Disaster.

Rating: 63

 

Match 4

Tag Team Match

Kaged Animals vs. Homicide and Shannon Moore

 

This one featured some pretty solid X-Division action, though the story was clear. Kaged Animals are looking to be the next TNA World Tag Team Champions, and Homicide is the X-Division Champion. Shannon Moore's usual tag team partner (Zema Ion) is not present this evening, so he is tagging with the X-Champion, who he has been known not to like. Additionally, Moore used to help TJ Perkins in training Vince Kage. With that being said, Homicide had no one to tag for the majority of the match, as Moore refused. Eventually, Homicide slapped Moore and tossed him in the ring, allowing "Natural" Vince Kage to run up and lock in the Guillotine Choke on Moore, causing his former trainer to tap out.

 

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Kaged Animals defeated Homicide and Shannon Moore in 8:21 when Vince Kage defeated Shannon Moore by submission with a Guillotine Choke.

Rating: 55

TJP improves Performance skills.

 

Match 5

Singles Match

Chris Sabin vs. John Hennigan

 

This one featured two men who have both been in slumps lately. Chris Sabin made his return to TV in a big way, by pulling off what would appear to be the upset victory, after dodging Starship Pain and landing the Cradle Shock.

 

In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Chris Sabin defeated John Hennigan in 13:25 by pinfall with a Cradle Shock.

Rating: 62

 

AJ Styles cut a quick promo about tonight's main event, where he hopes someone proves themselves without cheating.

Rating: 65

 

Pre-Main Event

Singles Match

Champion vs. Champion

AJ Styles vs. Alex Shelley

 

These two showed great chemistry as opponents, matching each other and fighting back and forth for quite some time. The World Heavyweight Champion proved why he is such, however, and kicked out of the Sliced Bread #2, landing a Styles Clash for the win.

 

In a bout that featured great action and average heat, AJ Styles defeated Alex Shelley in 15:11 by pinfall with a Styles Clash.

Rating: 78

Styles improves Technical skills.

 

Main Event

10-Man Elimination Tag Team Match

Willow The Wisp, Kofi Kingston, Samoa Joe, RVD & Anderson vs. Christian Cage, Bobby Roode, Zane Nosux, Matt Morgan & Rhino

 

The much anticipated main event finally presented itself. The match saw no eliminations for quite some time, until many started up. The first elimination came when Rhino took a Whisper in the Wind, Trouble in Paradise, and Mic Check, and was then pinned after a Five Star Frog Splash from RVD.

Eliminated: Rhino

The heels tried to swing back from losing a team member, which only led to Samoa Joe eliminating Bobby Roode, who was being extra cocky, and fell victim to the Coquina Clutch.

Eliminated: Bobby Roode

Joe tagged out to Kofi Kingston, who came right in to a Carbon Footprint from Matt Morgan.

Eliminated: Kofi Kingston

Joe hopped back in, and Morgan slammed him down witha powerful Hellevator.

Eliminated: Samoa Joe

RVD climbed in next, and met the same fate!

Eliminated: Rob Van Dam

Willow and Anderson fought off Morgan, double-teaming the big man. Nosux and Christian actually refused the tag from Morgan, allowing Willow to land the Swanton Bomb on him and eliminate him.

Eliminated: Matt Morgan

Zane Nosux refused to get in the ring, milking his ankle injury from X-Plosion a couple weeks ago. Christian fell victim to the numbers game as a result,a nd was put away by Willow.

Eliminated: Christian Cage

Nosux came in, still milking his injury. This distracted Willow long enough for Nosux to hook him up and land the Package Piledriver.

Eliminated: Willow the Wisp

The final two competitors from each team faced off, and Anderson couldn't overcome the size advantage, and tapped out to the Sharpshooter.

Eliminated: Mr. Anderson

 

In a match that had some good action and average heat, Christian Cage, Bobby Roode, Zane Nosux, Matt Morgan and Rhino defeated Willow The Wisp, Rob Van Dam, Mr. Anderson, Kofi Kingston and Samoa Joe in an Elimination match in 19:59; Rhino was eliminated first, then Bobby Roode, then Kofi Kingston, then Samoa Joe, then Rob Van Dam, then Matt Morgan, then Christian Cage, then Willow The Wisp, and finally Mr. Anderson.

Rating: 70

Anderson needs character change. Nosux was slowed by injury.

Christian improves Performance, RVD improves Performance, Nosux improves Flying.

 

Show Rating: 69

This show increased our popularity in 2 regions, and lost us popularity in 13 regions.
