Tom Hannifan and Matt Rehwoldt are on commentary.

Jeff goes up top and Judas sweeps him there. Trav misses a top rope frogsplash. Jeff bends him backwards wit hthe spinal destination and submits him.

Thoughts: It wasn't good. Jeff's new submission is too weak to really buy as being a finisher. The Hardy's were not moving well at all here and Matt hit some bad shots.

Jeff swantons Travis off the top after. 

The Elegance Brand are interviewed. They tell ODB and Mickie James to stay out of their business. They say Mr. Elegance debuts next week. Goldy Locks comes in. She says she misses the job and place and says how dare they disrespect Gia, ODB and Mickie. She says Gia is doing an amazing job and earned this, something they know nothing about. Goldy says she might make the call to bring back her old friends and remind them where they stand. Mr. Elegance says she was working here when he was four years old. Goldy tells him to sit down as the adults are talking.

Thoughts: Seeing Goldy again was a surprise.

Thoughts: If I didn't know any better, I'd think Kelsey was the star here and Indi would be the one getting squash. Kel had a decent showing and Indi struggled to make the basics look good.

Indi says she's not just happy be here. She says she came here to become Knockouts champ. She says the person holding it now doesn't deserve it. She tells Arianna Grace she wants her sport.

Arianna Grace and Stacks come out. She says Indi can get in line if she wants a title shot. She brings up Lei, Dani and Tessa and says they are saying the same things as her.

TNA Injury Report

The Home Town Man is cleared. Leon Slater is out with neck issues from Eric Young's piledriver. Cedric Alexander and Moose are cleared. 

Daria Rae tells Mike Santana that if he touches Steve Maclin, he will be stripped of the title. Mike says Daria was just hired here to make people's lives hell. Santino Marella walks in. He says if Maclin lays a finger on Santana, he will be fired and deleted from the TNA archives. They both say what they did is best for business. Steve Maclin walks in and says, "sup champ?" to Mike.

Thoughts: They officially announces that Steve Maclin was re-signed this week even though he was fired in storyline. This storyline has been awful and really hurt the Feast or Fired gimmick. 

Arianna Grace complains to Stacks about everyone wanting a title shot. Stacks says that's how it works. Grace says that's not how it works and she should be celebrated. They see Indi Hartwell around the wall. Stacks yells at Indi. Indi tells her to get out of here. Grace hits Indi in the leg with the title then stomps her. Santino comes in and says they can't do this. Stacks says he did and asks what he will do about it. Santino kicks him out of the building. 

Steve Maclin comes out to talk. We see Mike Santana in the crowd. Steve says it feels good to be back and it's like he never left. He says he had to apologize to Tom Hannifan and the fans to return. He thanks Daria Rae and rips Santino. Steve gives Tom a non-apology and calls him weak.

Steve says it's been a while since he has been champ and backstage politics took it from him. Steve tells Mike Santana he saw an opportunity and took it. He says he knew Mike's would get him back and says he uses his addiction to get fans to care about him. Steve says maybe he should film his meeting at the VA and play messages from his dad like Mike did. Steve says he can't as his dad is dead too and he doesn't remember what it sounds like. Steve says he met death and knows what it's like unlike Mike. He says this is about more than the TNA Title and the person Mike let out of the door. He says the people will meet Mr. Mayhem. He says Mayhem is for all. 

AJ Francis vs Elijah

Frankie Kazarian is on commentary for this. Eli hits chops and punches in the corner. Eli lariats him over the top rope. Eli slingshot plancha's him outside. Eli bangs AJ's face off the apron. Eli running flying knees him from the outside as he lays on the bottom rope.

Eli walks the top rope and AJ grabs him. AJ pop-up forearms him down. AJ chokes him against the 2nd rope. AJ chinlocks him around the ropes then clubs him. AJ hits Tennessee whiskey. Eli alabama slams AJ. Eli flying forearms him in the corner and hits a forearm flurry there.

Thoughts: AJ shouldn't have been taking flapjacks and canadian destroyers. He's too big for that and those types of things should finish someone like him. I was surprised to see him win here.

AJ and Kaz double team Eli after. The Home Town Man makes the save with a pipe. 

Eric Young asks if Leon Slater is okay. He asks if his neck hurts. He says Leon is a false prophet, a cheat and a liar. He challenges him for the X-Title at the PLE. He says he said the cleanse is coming and now he proves it.

We go to Swinger's Palace, which makes its return. Ryan Nemeth comes in and Rosemary also comes in. Swinger calls Rose "Sherri Martel" and "Papa Shango". Rose talks to someone telepathically. JDC is playing at the table as are Sinner and Saint. JDC says he likes Sinner and Saint and asks if they drive automatic. He asks if they have been to Juarez and says they are going. He then makes them go with him.

Swinger says he's only here to chew gum and take money from the marks. Rose says if he gives her the deed, they can make money forever. They shake hands on it and Rose says 2 sins are taken care of now. Rose then sees the wrestler formerly known as The Bunny and they seem to be working together.

Ricky Sosa vs Brad Attitude

This is Ricky Sosa's Impact debut. He got some views due to his entrance and I guess they are running with it.

BA hits a shot on Sosa then wristlocks him. Sosa headflips out and side headlock takeovers him. Sosa then crucifixes him. Sosa dropkicks him. Sosa bangs BA's arm off his shoulder. Sosa goes up top and is swept. BA hits mounted punches on him. BA kneeling springboard swantons him.

Sosa germans him and hits flying corner euros. Sosa corkscrew kicks him then top rope moonsaults him for 2. Sosa suicide dives him. BA is caught on a back springboard and is hit with a blue thunder. Sosa wins.

Thoughts: They said Sosa debuted on Xplosion already. I feel like they probably told the crowd how to react as they knew how to react to some of his moves and cheer for him. On paper, he seems like a decent prospect as he's taller, can flying and has an entrance people can get into. He's also only 21. I would have maybe built him up a bit more though before debuting him. This was fine though. TNA needs new stars desperately and maybe he will be one of them.

Atlanta Street Fight - Cedric Alexander vs. Moose

Moose pump kicks him. Ced flying forearms him in the corner and chops him. Moose euros him then uranage's him. Moose sentons him. Moose lariats him over the top. They trade shots outside. Moose pump kicks him. Moose chops him outside and pump kicks him. Ced suplexes him on the floor.

They each grab chairs and duel. Moose hits him in the gut and back with the chair. We go to break and return. Ced hits Moose with a cookie sheet. Moose back elbows Ced. Ced boots him out of the corner then Moose sky high's him for 2. 

Moose misses a charge outside and goes into the steps. Ced hits him with cookie sheets. Ced goes or a chair shot while Moose is on the steps and Alisha Edwards stops him. Ced pokes her and Alisha slaps him. Moose pump kicks Ced and apron powerbombs him. 

Ced low blows him on the apron. Moose is powerbombed on the bottom side of a trash can. Ced puts chairs in the ring. Ced gets hit up top. Moose superplexes him onto chairs. Moose pump kicks him and Ced standing spanish flies him for 2. Ced springboards and is caught in mid-air with a spear. A table is set up in the corner. Moose is sent into a chair between the buckles. Ced brainbusters him for 1. 

Moose headbutts him and spears him through a table to win. 

Thoughts: It was an okay hardcore bout but nothing too memorable. there was no blood and the big spot here was a table spot. We got enough of this though. Moose got the win as expected and maybe bumped a bit more than usual.

Overall thoughts: The opener wasn't that good with The Hardy's looking old. We got an appearance from Goldy Locks, who hasn't been around for a while. Kelsey Heather looked better as the jobber than Indi did squashing her. We had a decent trios match with Order 4. Steve Maclin is back and his whole angle is not working.  I didn't like AJ Francis/Elijah. We got the return of Swinger's Palace which was nice and it appears that Rosemary may be running it now. Ricky Sosa debuted and while I think the crowd was coached, he did well. Cedric/Moose had an okay hardcore match that was fine for the main event. I'd give this a higher 5 out of 10 as the show really did have some highs and lows. I'd say it was above average.
