On the latest edition of Sound Check with Alan Angels, Simon Gotch took credit for the fact Josh Alexander returned to the ring from his broken neck and signed with TNA, as it was Gotch who pushed him to the limit when Alexander return to the ring.  Gotch feels he was forgotten while Alexander got the opportunities after their bout, so he had enough and attacked Josh.  Alexander burst in and were nose to nose before everyone pulled them apart.  Good promo and good intensity here.

If ABC lose here, they lose the titles.  The GYVs go right after Ace Austin's hurt left arm and work it over for a long time, cutting the ring off.  Bey was finally able to tag in but was eventually overwhelmed as well.  Austin surprised James Drake and bridged over him, scoring the pin.
