TESSA VS. SAMI, NORTH VS. MACK, EDWARDS VS. ELGIN & MORE: COMPLETE IMPACT WRESTLING HARD TO KILL PPV COVERAGE FROM DALLAS

By Mike Johnson on 2020-01-12 18:00:00

Rob Van Dam vs. Brian Cage.

Lots of RVD and Katie Forbes chicanery.  Cage was drilled by RVD and taken out.  The word is that he's hurt again.  Daga and several referees stopped RVD from using a chair,  Cage was taken to the back,  RVD attacked Daga and they rang the bell....

Rob Van Dam vs. Daga

RVD worked over Daga.  He went for a monkey flip out of the corner but Daga kicked him as he was executing it and went on the warpath with kicks.  RVD was sent from the ring and Daga hit a bodypress to the floor.

Back in the ring, Daga went to the top but missed a double stomp.  RVD used a pinfall combination for a two count. Daga nailed a gutbuster and a splash for a two count.  Forbes grabbed Daga’s leg, allowing RVD to nail a spinkick, then a corkscrew legdrop.

RVD went to the top and hit the five star frog splash for the pin.

Your winner, Rob Van Dam!

They did an angle to get around the Cage match, but the Daga vs. Van Dam match was fun while it lasted.

RVD, his girlfriend and his girlfriend's girlfriend celebrated in the ring.  They all started kissing each other.

Backstage, OVE refused to let anyone speak to Sami Callihan.

Michael Elgin vs. Eddie Edwards 

This was a stiff war from the start.  They brawled to the floor, where Edwards nailed a big suicide dive, only to see Elgin smash him.  Elgin set up him up on the apron and nailed a DDT to the floor. He brought Edwards back in the ring.  The crowd chanted for Edwards. He fought back and nailed a big splash in the corner, only to be caught with a twisting Perfectplex.

Elgin massacred Edwards with a big forearm in the corner.  He nailed him with a hard whip into the corner. Edwards and Elgin battled back and forth.  Edwards ducked a clothesine but missed a kick and got caught in the ropes. Elgin drilled him.  He went for a suplex but Edwards twisted and they crashed over the ropes to the floor.

Edwards caught Elgin with an overhead suplex on the floor.   He nailed a big dive to the floor.  Back in the ring, Elgin caught him coming and nailed a big elbow.  Eddie caught him on the ropes and charged with Elgin on their back, dropped him down.   Elgin nailed a big forearm.  Edwards cut him off but was caught with a fierce Uranage.  Elgin was caught with a back suplex but popped up and massacred Edwards with some massive forearms and clotheslines.  It was evil.  Edwards still kicked up at the last second.  The crowd chanted for him.

Edwards and Elgin battled back and forth with slaps and punches.  Elgin peppered him with chops and forearms.  Edwards ripped off his elbowpad to respond but was caught with a clothesline.  They nailed each other with clotheslines.  Finally, Eddie nailed a huge lariat and a sit-down powerbomb for a two count.  Huge pop for each of those moves.  The crowd chanted more for Eddie.  Edwards hit a rana into the corner.  Elgin fired back with some stiff kicks. 

They battled to the top rope, where Elgin executed a huge belly to back superplex for a close two count.  Elgin nailed a big lariat and hit a huge sit-down powerbomb for another close near fall.  This match is awesome.  The crowd rallied behind Eddie, chanting his name.  Edwards made a comeback but was cut off and trapped in a crossface submission.  He fought for the ropes as the crowd chanted for him.  Edwards finally made it to the ropes.

Elgin measured Edwards and lariated him, then hit a Bucklebomb.  He went for another but Edwards caught him with a sunset flip and scored the pin.

Your winner, Eddie Edwards!

An excellent back and forth match that told a great story and was just physical as hell.  My favorite thing on the show thus far.

Rhino cut a promo saying he was going to cut Moose in half with a gore.

No DQ: Moose vs. Rhino.

Moose was dressed like Macho Man from the 80s.  There was brawling and weapons galore. Big ECW chant for the first table break.  Moose hit a series of high dropkicks in the corner. There was a superplex into the ring on a group of chairs.  Rhino gored Moose through a table but Moose pulled the referee in front of him and there was no one to count the fall.  A second referee came to the ring. Moose low blowed and speared Rhino for the pin.

Your winner, Moose!

A fun brawl that gave you exactly what you expected.
