Digital Media & International Heavyweight Wrestling Championship AJ Francis with Rich Swann, Josh Bishop, and Smoke DZA vs. PCO in a Montreal Rules Street Fight

First Class comes to the ring. AJ Francis says that PCO isn’t coming tonight as they already beat him down. A video is shown of them laying a sheet over a downed body (PCO). Someone was looking on through the door, though.

AJ Francis says that it’s time to announce him as the winner. Just as the referee was about to do so, though, PCO’s music hits. From the rafters, a covered body (PCO) is lowered into a coffin at the top of the ramp. He is brought back to life by Deathstroke (the person who was looking through the door). The crowd seemed to eat it up and are fully behind PCO.

PCO enters the ring and gets on the ropes to pump up the crowd. AJ Francis grabs a chair and hits PCO with it a few times. PCO fights it off and sends AJ to the floor. PCO hits a big dive to the outside.

PCO puts AJ on the ring apron and hits the Deanimator. He then climbs up to the top rope and hits the PCO-sault onto AJ and Rich Swann. With AJ down, PCO takes out a table. Swann tries to interrupt PCO’s plans and PCO begins to stalk him. That allows AJ Francis to hit PCO from behind.

First Class sets up the table together. They get another table and put it next to the initial one. AJ tries to slam PCO through the tables, but he fights it off. He then fights Swann off. They go into the ring and AJ rolls to the outside again, gets a trash can, and hits PCO in the head with it.

He grabs another trash can and gets into the ring. PCO is thrown into the corner and receives a big splash from AJ. AJ hits a big knee in the corner and flips over the top rope with the momentum. AJ throws more chairs into the ring. Swann does, as well. AJ puts a trash can over PCO’s head and body and hits him with a chair. PCO is down and AJ caves in the trash can with a chair. He then hits the trash can off PCO’s head with a chair. PCO gets some more chair shots to the back before getting choked by it. The crowd is doing their best to pump PCO up. AJ hits a leg drop on a chair for a two count.

AJ has PCO on his shoulders and is trying to launch him through the tables on the outside, but PCO fights it off. PCO is able to clothesline AJ a few times, but won’t go down until PCO wears him down with repeated attempts. PCO climbs the ropes, but AJ puts him in the Electric Chair. He drops him backwards onto the pile of chairs and gets a two count.

AJ climbs the ropes as the crowd gets behind PCO. PCO gets up and stops AJ’s progress. He grabs hold of AJ and slams him through the tables on the outside. The crowd chants “TNA!”

PCO is re-tying his shoe on the outside as Smoke DZA tells Josh Bishop to get involved. Bishop hits PCO with a chair a few times. He grabs PCO and tosses him in a Razor’s Edge-like move onto two chairs. 

This brings out Sami Callihan with a bat. He gives the “thumbs down” to Bishop. Just as he’s about to do something about Bishop, Swann intervenes. Swann brings Sami into the ring and is about to hit him with the bat. He brings it up over his head, but Rhino’s music hits and he makes the save. Swann tries to meet him on the outside, but Rhino sends him back into the ring and hits a GORE! The crowd is appreciative and starts to cheer on PCO again.

PCO comes to life and sends AJ into the ring. PCO hits the PCO-sault, but AJ kicks out at two. The crowd is standing! AJ thumbs PCO in the eyes and hits a Tombstone Piledriver. He goes for the pin and PCO kicks out at two.

AJ goes for the Down Payment, but PCO reverses it into a chokeslam of his own onto the chairs. He goes up for another PCO-sault, hits it, and gets the win!

Winner and NEW Digital Media & International Heavyweight Wrestling Champion: PCO

As PCO is celebrating, Steph De Lander comes out to the ring. She gets down on one knee and asks PCO to marry her. PCO answers with an emphatic, “OUI!” The happy couple celebrate and hold up PCO’s championships.

Grace and Ash come face to face in the middle of the ring and we are off. Ash tries to be sneaky and roll Grace up early. Grace is catching on to Ash’s attempted tricks and quickness and uses her power to slam her down. Ash tries to follow Grace into the corner, but gets lept over and chopped. The camera cuts to someone in the crowd. Tom Hannifan realizes that it’s Rosemary.

She goes to the top for a swanton, but Grace gets her knees up. Grace gets countered by Ash again into a spinning neckbreaker. She goes to the top, but Grace stops her progress. Grace goes up, as well, and her arm gets bit by Ash. This allows Ash to hit a Sliced Bread from the top rope for a two count.

Ash throws a bunch of strikes on Grace while she’s down. She grabs a leg and tries to turn Grace over, but Grace is able to power it into a sleeper. Ash rolls it into a pin, but Grace gets out and levels Ash down. She brings Ash up and Ash gets in some strikes.

Grace goes for the Juggernaut Driver, but Ash reverses. We get a few more reversals until Grace hits a big powerbomb. She hits the Juggernaut Driver for the win!

A video package is shown for the match between Mike Bailey and Mustafa Ali.

TNA X-Division Champion Mustafa Ali with Campaign Singh and The Secret Service Security vs. Mike Bailey

Jade Chung introduces the competitors. Nice ovation for the local Mike Bailey. A not very nice ovation for Mustafa Ali, who is wearing pink and black.

They lock up and it goes to the ropes. The referee hits the five count and Ali sneaks in an attack. Bailey is able to fight off Ali’s offense, though, and hits some strikes of his own. He’s kicking at the legs and Ali is able to grab a leg. They run the ropes and exchange some strikes until Baileyhits a hard kick.

Bailey goes for a spinning kick and Ali goes to the apron. Ali is knocked off the apron and Campaign Singh distracts Bailey. This allows Ali to slide back in and attack Bailey from behind. Bailey fights off some strikes, hits a series of kicks, and ducks Ali’s attacks as Ali runs the ropes. Ali slides out of the ring and Bailey hits a dive to the outside and then a moonsault to the outside. He embraces his wife, Veda Scott, before getting back to the action.

Singh and the Security distract Bailey on the outside, allowing Ali to jump off the ropes and plant Bailey hard on the outside. Ali rolls Bailey back in the ring and hits a rolling neckbreaker for a two count. Ali runs the ropes and grabs a chinlock to poke at the crowd. Bailey fights it off briefly until Ali is able to stop him in the corner. 

Ali wraps up Bailey and brings him into the center of the ring for a Gory Special. The crowd is not being kind to Ali as he climbs to the top. He goes for a 450 and rolls through as Bailey moves. Ali goes for an air attack, but Bailey kicks him out of mid air. The crowd is loud for Bailey.

Bailey hits a spinning kick, then an axe kick, but misses the running Shooting Star Press. He goes to the top and hits a Shooting Star Press this time for a two count. Bailey goes for the double knees on the apron and misses. Ali goes to the top and brings Bailey up with him. Bailey reverses it into a Spanish Fly with both men landing on the Security team of Mustafa Ali.

After some recovery time, Bailey rolls Ali into the ring but eats a big kick as he follows him in. Bailey is using the crowd energy to exchange blows with Ali in the center of the ring. Ali folds Bailey up for a two. He then rolls him up again, but has his feet on the ropes. The referee won’t count, so Bailey reverses for a two.

Bailey goes for the quick pin, but Ali almost reverses it into a pin of his own. Bailey goes for a superkick, but Ali ducks and Bailey hits the referee by accident. Ali is now all smiles as the Security surrounds the ring. They enter the ring and charge at Bailey. He’s fighting them off until Singh hits Bailey with the X-Division Title.

Ali’s team holds Bailey down and Ali hits a 450. And another one. The referee is back in position and counts to two and…NO! A Security team member pulls him out of the ring. It’s TRENT SEVEN!

Ali is in disbelief as Trent Seven takes out Ali’s Security and Singh. Ali dives to the outside to take out Seven. He grabs a chair and hits Seven’s leg. He brings the chair into the ring and hits Bailey with it. He signals an “X” and out comes Earl Hebner. The crowd chants, “You Screwed Bret!”

Ali puts Bailey in the Sharpshooter and Hebner is about to call for the bell…but seems conflicted. Ali asks him what his problem is and gives him the business in the corner. He grabs the chair, but Bailey has recovered and levels Ali. He slaps the Sharpshooter on Ali and wins by submission!

Winner and NEW TNA X-Division Champion: Mike Bailey
