We are in Dolthan, AL. Matthew Rehwoldt & Tom Hannifan are on commentary.

EB double underhook ddt's her and pins her.

Thoughts: It was average but it picked up near the end. They didn't do anything too impressive but they kept it moving at least and it eventually somewhat came around. 

Ryan Nemeth says Elijah is a mad man and he wants Santino Marella do something about it. He then talks about Matt Hardy and Syx attacking him. Ryan says he wants justice. Santino says Ryan and Nic can fight Hardy/Moose and Syx in a tag title match at the PPV. Santino says that's justice and Ryan disagrees.

Daria Rae is on the phone. Brian Johnson says she's late for their meeting. Brian says the Board of Directors is concerned about her altercation with Indi Hartwell last week. Daria says she's concerned about Santino calling him a babysitter and disrespecting him. Daria says she got it wrong and they got off on the wrong foot. Daria says he will be a valuable aspect to the company. Daria says Santino is the one causing the bad work environment around here and he doesn't have a babysitter. Daria is concerned that Indi will get involved in the match tonight but Brian says it's more about her not getting involved. Daria then invites him to watch the match with her tonight. 

Apex (Shayna Baszler & Zoey Serrano) vs The King Bees (Charity King & Danni Bee)

Indi Hartwell is on commentary for this.

SB backs up Bee in the corner. Bee waistlocks her. Bee hits forearms in the corner then gets dropped with one. Bee chops Zoey and Zoey chops her multiple times. Zoey hits her with ataxia and hits a nice running lariat.

Bee is booted over then takes a running knee from SB. SB pulls on Bee's arm. King comes in and hits lariats on her opponents. King fisherman suplexes SB then samoan drops Zoey. King plays to the crowd but her opponents hit kicks and knees on her. SB does a side powerslam and pins her.

Thoughts: It was mostly all squash here. King's hot tag segment wasn't here. Apex looked fine and SB looked comfortable out there as usual.

Syx does a video. Joe says Moose and Matt think they can stop them. They talk about what they did to Jeff Hardy. Jeff says Ryan Nemeth is a fool for crying to Santino since now he has to defend his tag title. Syx says they came to TNA for destruction, not glory, but they'll take the tag titles. Sam says he will see Moose soon and says he won't make it to the PPV.

Jason Hotch says the weight of the title on his shoulder gets heavy. He says he's glad the weight of Mustafa Ali is off his shoulder. He says he feels like he's on the run of his life. He says he could face anyone across the globe.

Expressions and AJ Francis comes in. Ex says if he faces AJ, his title reign will be shorter than Jason is. AJ says Jason shouldn't be representing TNA as there is no better TNA rep than him. He says the other guys are lucky he's not in the X Cup. AJ says Jason has the International Title, which he wants. He says he always gets what he wants. 

Moose vs Samuel Shaw

They trade shots. Moose chops him and running corner euros him. Moose dropkicks him down. Sam double throat thrusts him and running corner lariats him. Moose pump kicks him. Sam hits Moose in the corner and Moose no sells it. Moose then chops him and hits mounted corner punches.

Sam is thrown out. Joseph Sawyer clips Moose from behind. We go to break and return. They trade shots. Sam knees him in the gut. Moose is thrown over the top but he skins the cat back in. Moose hits a big lariat on Sam. 

Moose goes to run and his leg gives out. Moose uranage's and sentons him. Moose kips up and holds his leg. Sam spinebusters Moose for 2.  

Sam is crotched up top. Moose top rope superplexes him. Joe throws a chair into the ring. Moose goes after him. Sam then chairs Moose in the gut and gets DQ'd.

Thoughts: Dumb ending here with Sam still being in it and just throwing the match away for no real reason. It was average overall and they stuck to the basics in this.

Moose is beaten up by Joe and Sam after. Sam goes for a chair shot but Matt Hardy comes out with a pipe. Matt gets in the ring and hits Syx with the pipe. Syx leave.

M By Elegance is on the phone in the back. She says she needs everything perfect for the magazine cover. She says the most important thing is that she and her title are on the cover. Heather By Elegance comes in and says she thought she was supposed to be on the cover too. M asks why would she say something that ridiculous when she's a champ and Heather isn't. Heather says M said they were best friends. M says she's dragging The Elegance Brand down after losing to Elayna Black. M says  since she can't win a match, maybe she can make sure she wins Ultimate X or makes sure the magazine cover is the way she wants it.

TNA Injury Report

Amazing Red is out with head and neck injuries from Ryan Nemeth hitting him in the head with the title. Eddie Edwards is cleared despite lower back injuries. Jeff Hardy is still out with head trauma and deep lacerations. 

Nic Nemeth and Santino Marella talk in the back. Nic complains about SM making matches and asks what he is even doing. SM says Nic should watch how he talks to him. Nic says he's a fraud and only does things for his friends. Nic says he deserves something better. SM says he made the match as Ryan is complaining about not having matches in the back. SM gets mad and says if Nic loses vs Elijah tonight, Elijah will win Nic's title rematch.

Thoughts: I 100% promise this is going to factor into the Daria Rae/Brian Johnson story.

Mustafa Ali vs Frankie Kazarian

They lock up and and Ali armdrags him off of it. Kaz fireman's carry takeovers him and Ali crucifixes him. They sweep each other. Kaz rolls him up and Ali backs off.
 
Ali side headlocks Kaz then Kaz reverses it. Ali shoulders Kaz over. Ali chops Kaz. Kaz rolls out of a sunset flip and basement dropkicks him. Kaz twisting russian legsweeps him for 2.

Kaz slingshots Ali in and cutters him. Avery wants to attack Ali but Kaz stops him. Ali then rolls up Kaz and pins him.

Thoughts: This was fine. Kaz and Ali flowed pretty well together and were really on the same page here. I'm still not really behind this Kaz face run though it gives Kaz something different to do.. Avery costing Kaz the match fits in with their story some.

The System do a promo. Eddie Edwards says everyone wants to talk about their demise. He says they are a family and fights and makes up. Brian says they are back on track. Bear says they are stronger and hungrier together. Cedric says he will reclaim his X Title at the PPV and show everyone that you can't beat The System.

Trey Miguel walks around Toledo. He says he grew up in a bad part of Toledo, OH with a lot of gang activity. He says you wanted to avoid every other street there. He says he wouldn't be who he is if he didn't grow up here. He says he met his mom for the first time at age 5 and says his dad's new girlfriend was his mom. He says he knew there was something weird about it. 

He goes back to his old home. He says it's boarded up and it's hard to go back there. He says there's good and bad memories. He says he felt safe 2 doors down with his grandma. He says he lost his grandma young and she did a lot to raise him.

Trey's dad says Trey was a go-getter and was generous. He says Trey gave his bike to a kid who didn't have one.  Trey talks to a neighbor about his aunt. 

We hear from Trey's friend. Trey says he's been watching wrestling as long as he remembers. Trey says wrestling is the one constant in his life and he can't imagine his life without it.

Leon Slater says he didn't feel different after winning the title. He says he did feel the physical weight of the title but he's ready to carry it. He says being champ changed his life. He says he's recognized more at home. He says he feels his family pride but feels the target on his back and the pressure of carrying the company.

Leon says his matches need to be classics and people need to feel what he says on the mic. He says he's getting used to the wear of going to appearances and doing media interviews. He says he feels the wear and he's trying to get himself ready for it. He says TNA is the company that inspired him to be a wrestler.

Leon says he always knew he wanted to be champ and had the ability to do it. He says it validates all the work he has done since he was a kid. He says he feels ready. He says he doesn't realize the effects he has on people around him. He says he thinks the young version of him would be proud of him and think he's the coolest. He says he'd tell himself to keep doing what he's doing as every step is a way to learn something.

John Skyler is eating and thinks he hears Mila Moore. Rich Swann goes up to him and asks if he will finish his food. John then gives it to him and looks sad.

Eli goes to slingshot in and is superkicked. Nic kicks the 2nd rope into his crotch. Nic superkicks him and hits a danger zone. Nic then pins him.

Thoughts: It was acceptable. They put out a decent enough effort and it got some time. Nic was kind of spamming finishers near the end though.

We get a video with Harley Hudson, Mila Moore and Taryn Terrell playing with a dollhouse. They say, "Welcome to our house, the doll house".

Overall thoughts: The opener was average. Apex won a squash but Shayna looked fine as usual. Moose/Shaw was average with a DQ finish. Ali/Kaz went better than expected and the two worked well together. I thought that was fine. We got some profiles on Leon Slater and Trey Miguel. We don't get a lot of info on Trey usually, so that segment worked. The main was acceptable enough. This was the go home show for the PPV, but the PPV is mostly all multi-person matches and that limits the hype. It's not a PPV that has been well built to and with so many names being gone from TNA, it makes that task more difficult. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 overall. It was acceptable.
