We open with a video on Roode vs. Lashley from last week where Bobby almost won the title.
Video on MVP.
Gold Rush Tournament Qualifying Match: MVP vs. Low Ki
The BroMans argue over whose girlfriend is hotter. They agree to disagree but Robbie brags about being in the tournament and then being on Amazing Race with Brooke starting this Sunday. He plans on switching between both girls but Jesse points out that cameras will be everywhere. Like the one filming them right now. They point out said camera and Robbie runs. This was actually kind of funny.
Quick tribute to Eric the Actor from the Howard Stern Show, a big wrestling fan who passed away over the weekend.
Video on the Tag Team Title series. The Wolves will pick the final stipulation next week.
Gold Rush Tournament Qualifying Match: Robbie E. vs. Tajiri
Gold Rush Tournament Qualifying Match: Austin Aries vs. Knux
The fans are entirely behind Aries who tries a test of strength for some reason. Aries rolls away so Knux does a handstand, only to have Aries spin around. Taz changes the story again by saying Rebel and Knux are dating, even though I thought they were brother and sister before. Knux gets taken down by a wristlock so he nips up to a huge response. Knux takes a bow so Aries tries a brainbuster to stop the fun. The big guy shoves him off so Aries dropkicks the knee out and takes over in the corner.
Video on Roode vs. Lashley from last week.
Gold Rush Tournament Qualifying Match: Mr. Anderson vs. Magnus
Magnus jumps him to start and slams him face first into the mat for some early two counts. We hit the chinlock for a bit before a clothesline gets two on Anderson. Back up and a double clothesline puts both guys down before Anderson wins a slugout. Magnus grabs a belly to back suplex into a slam for a close two. He loads it up again but Anderson reverses into the Mic Check for the pin at 6:50.
Quick video on set of the Knockouts calendar shoot.
Video on Team 3D going into the Hall of Fame.
We recap the tournament so far.
Video on Gail Kim vs. Havok for next week. This is designed to make Havok look like a monster.
Gold Rush Tournament Qualifying Match: Abyss vs. Samuel Shaw
The fans chant “Dexter Morgan” at Shaw. Abyss knocks him down and grabs a chokeslam but Shaw kicks him in the ribs to escape. Instead Abyss grabs him by the throat again and shoves him out to the floor in a big crash. Shaw fights back on the floor and rams Abyss into the steps.
Gold Rush Tournament Finals: Austin Aries vs. Abyss vs. Tajiri vs. MVP vs. Mr. Anderson
Abyss brings in Anderson who is quickly caught in the Tarantula. Mr. slams Tajiri down off the top but MVP tags himself in. Anderson looks right at him before MVP hits the Drive By for two as Aries makes the save. Everything breaks down and MVP loads up the Drive By on Aries, only to get rolled up for the pin at 15:12.
