Real good wrestling early from Alexander and Chris Bey. Austin tagged in and there was more back and forth wrestling. Bey tagged back in. Bey caught Alexander with a double stomp but was caught with a shot to the mid-section. Young tagged in but was taken down with an armdrag. Austin tagged in but Young drilled him. Young was taken off his feet and ABC double-teamed him with a double hiposs and a dropkick for a two count.
Lots of good action here. Alexander tagged in and his sequences with Bey were lots of fun. He caught Bey and nailed a big release suplex. The crowd chanted for Alexander. Young tagged in but Bey kept kicking out. Bey and Josh grabbed each other's, well, nuts and squeezed. Double testicular claws! Alexander got the better of the exchange.
They went into a series of dives. Alexander went for a DVDR off the ropes with Austin on his shouler but Austin elbowed his way out of it. Austin drilled Young with a kick frm the apron. Austin nailed a rana off the top. He went for a kick but Alexander grabbed his ankle. Austin rolled through and backed Alexander into a Bey kick. Bey drilled him and scored a two count.
Alexander was grabbed by Austin, who climbed on his back. Bey went to help but Alexander suplexed him over and took out Ace at the same time. ABC took out Young and scored a two count. Alexander nailed some great offense but was caught with a springboard kick off the ropes. Bey went for a springboard into a rana but was caught and driven into a backbreaker for a two count. They are all wrestling their asses off.
Young nailed a flying elbow on Bey after he was struck with the rolling senton. ABC nailed The Fold and pinned Young.
Your winners, ABC!
A real damn good tag team bout with the right team going over. ABC got more out of this win than Josh and Young would have and it builds their story that they needed to rebound after last night' TV loss.
They plugged the Total Nonstop Summer tour and the upcoming dates.
TNA Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace's Open Challenge vs. WWE NXT's Tatum Paxley
I wish TNA could have advertised Paxley and gotten a few extra PPV buys off the crossover, but hopefully they will at least get some replay buys.
Before Paxley appeared, there were some chants for Tessa Blanchard.
Before the match could begin, Ash by Elegance's concierge showed up and said that despite what happened at NXT, they have decided not to prosecute and press charges. Ash will sit and watch the match. She sat in the entrance.
They locked up and Grace muscled Paxley into the corner several times but Grace broke clean. Grace went to rebound off the ropes but Paxley went to the mat like she was Antonio Inoki kicking at Muhammad Ali. Grace took control and locked her up on the mat, cinching him in a Camel Clutch. Paxley bit her to get out of the move.
Paxley went to the floor and under the ring to escape Grace. Grace looked around for her. Ash pointed out she was under the ring. Grace looked underneath but was snatched and pulled into the beams under the ring. Paxley tried to suplex her on the floor but Grace blocked it. Paxley shoved her into the ring post and tossed her into the ring. Paxley tried to set up for her finisher, the Psychotrip but Grace blocked it. Grace went for a move but was caught in a Maple Leaf. Grace battled back but had her legs kicked out from under her when going for a Vader Bomb off the ropes. Grace came back to nail it for a two count.
Grace went for the Juggernaut Driver. It was blocked. They battled to the ropes. Grace nailed the Muscle Buster for a two count. She followed up with a palm strike. They went into a series of near falls. Paxley was slapped across the mush. They battled again to the ropes. Paxley nailed a swinging neckbreaker off the ropes, called The Lobotomy, for a two count. Paxley ripped at Grace's ears, playing off the stitches, which was a really smart idea.
Grace drilled her with shot after shot. Grace drilled her with more but was snatched in a guillotine choke. I thought they were going to do a TKO finish for a second. Grace powered up and hit the Juggernaut Jackhammer for a close near fall. Paxley nailed a back fist for a two count. Grace nailed one of her own and hit the Juggernaut Driver for the pin.
Your winner and still Champion Jordynne Grace!
Ash by Elegance hit the ring and attacked Jordynne, who made a comeback with a spinebuster. She tossed Ash to the floor and ran off the Concierge. She poured a wine bottle over Ash.
