Your winner, MVP!

Joey Ryan vs. Teddy Hart

It’s a battle of Wrestling Society X alumni!

Lots of Joey Ryan antics early.  They did a test of strength.  Hart went to knee Ryan in the groin and it hurt is knee.  Hart tried a different tact, taking Ryan down with a leglock.  Ryan fought his way out and nailed a suplex for a pair of near falls. They continued to go back and forth.  Hart began whipping out some big movies, including a rana and an Arabian Press for near falls.

Ryan pulled a lollipop out of his tights and shoved it in Hart’s face, then superkicked him.  Ryan finally got the pin.

Your winner, Joey Ryan!

Ace Romero vs. Super Crazy vs. Clatyon James vs. ?

They all did dives, building to Romero teasing one.  He nailed it.    Crazy went for one but the referee stopped him.  Crazy did a dive over his back.   They built to a Tower of Doom spot out of the corner.    Crazy missed a moonsault from the top.  James tried to attack him but was caught with a forward roll for the pin.

Your winner, Super Crazy!

Brian Cage vs. Austin Aries

Lots of good back and forth wrestling.  Aries nailed a big dropkick.  He nailed a dive to the floor.  Aries nailed a slingshot.  Aries nailed a neckbreaker on the ropes.  He went to the top and dove off.  Cage caught him in mid-air and dropped him with a suplex.  He nailed a big German suplex that flipped Aries over upside down.

Cage pulled Aries up off the apron for a superplex but Aries fought his way out.  He knocked Cage to the floor and nailed a big heatseeking dive to the outside.  Aries nailed a nice missile dropkick but was drilled as he charged Cage into the corner.  Cage scored a two-count coming out of a suplex into the ring.

Cage came off the top with a flying elbow, but Aries rolled out of the way.  Aries drilled him but was caught with a clothesline that turned him inside out.  Aries came back with a big dropkick in the corner and a brainbuster for the pin.

Your winner, Austin Aries!

Aries cut a promo putting over Tommy Dreamer and everything he does for pro wrestling fans.  He said that Dreamer left the WWE Hall to help produce last night's Impact vs. Lucha event.  He put over that the next Impact show will featlure Lucha Underground and House of Hardcore matches.  He announced the new main event of Redemption would be himself vs. Penta 0M vs. Rey Fenix, admitting he lost the three way last night but said they can do it again for the title because they were professionals, obviously a shot at Alberto el Patron.
