Crazzy Steve with Decay vs. Deaner with Violent by Design.
Crazy Steve's antics kept Deaner at bay early on. Deaner went for a front facelock but Steve backed up to the floor. Deaner tried to slingshot him back but Steve landed on his feet and took control. He worked over Deaner and used a hanging headscissors over the ropes. Deaner rolled to the floor, seeking advice from Eric Young.
When Impact returned from a commercial, Steve was working over Deaner in the corner and bit him in the face, but was caught with a Snake Eyes. Deaner trapped him in the corner and nailed a running dropkick, driving Steve's neck into the buckles. Deaner continued beating over Steve. He set up Steve outside on the apron and drilled him with a running knee strike to the face.
Steve made a comeback and chased Deaner to the floor. Deaner returned and Steve disappeared under the ring. He returned behind Deaner, nailing a series of running elbows. Deaner was drilled with a neckbreaker for a two count. Deaner cut off Steve with a kick to the mid-section. He went after Steve in the corner but was kicked off. Deaner cut him off with a clothesline for a two count.
Steve cut off Deaner and catapulted him into the buckles and followed up with a clothesline. He nailed a running forearm, then a cannonball in the corner for a two count. Deaner regained control and set up Steve for a hanging DDT but Steve escaped and nailed sliding Flatliner for a two count. They battled to the corner, where Steve kicked off a charge and went for a double underhook maneuver but Deaner drilled him. Deaner went for a superplex but Steve blocked it. Steve bit him on the forehead and drilled a flying DDT off the ropes for the pin.
