He peppered HTM with punches to the head. He drilled HTM's lower back with a kneedrop and set up for another. HTM moved and went for a slam but couldn't hold him, falling backwards. Jensen scored a two count and then locked in a bearhug. The crowd chanted for HTM to escape and he fired his way out with punches and a clap across the ear Jensen missed with a clothesline but HTM did not. He followed up with a slam and nailed the Hometown Elbow. He nailed The Hometown Slice but King distracted him. HTM nailed a dive to the floor on him. As he returned to the ring, King used his cane to trip up HTM. That allowed Jensen to blast and pin HTM.

They go to the Treehouse for some Rascalz silliness. Very entertaining with some of them confused that Dez was Wes in NXT.
TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions The IInspiration came to the ring. They are proud to still be champions and icons. Tessa Blanchard and Victoria Crawford come out. Blanchard said she wasn't cleared but they will face them at Final Resolution. Mila Moore attacked The Champions from behind and beat them both but the champs made a comeback.

TNA Champion Frankie Kazarian cut a promo about facing JDC tomorrow. He said JDC is joining the retirement party after John Cena and AJ Styles said they will be retiring. They were stars who had actual runs. JDC couldn't be a star if he was thrown by a ninja. Kazarian said he's going to destroy his miserable opening match run.
They went to The First Class Penthouse with AJ Francis. Rich Swann was in the ring with him. Their guest is X-Division Champion Leon Slater. Francis insults Swann. Slater tells Francis he cannot talk to Swann like that and that Swann is a former World Champion. Francis says that if he was in TNA when Swann was champion, Francis would have had the title. Slater showed some great swagger talking up how he's going to fight Francis. Francis offered him a toast but drenched Slater wit. Francis and Slater fight in the ring. AJ slammed the table at Slater. Slater was choked with Francis' jacket. Francis held Slater for Swann to hit him with the title belt and Swann could not do it. Francis yelled at him but Slater stepped up. Francis chokeslams Slater and cut a promo saying he's money, money, money.
Quick System promo.
JDC said that Frankie talked about him and what he's done, then asked how many Wrestlemanias has Kazarian worked on. He said he respects Frankie and he broke in after Frankie and respected him, but Frankie wants to make comments about JDC getting married and that's personal. He said he's been a comedy guy but he's going to be serious at the PPV and he's going to show Kazarian what he's made of. Good promo.
