Opening sequence.
King of the Mountain Title: Eric Young vs. James Storm
Young is defending and gets taken down in a hurry with Storm sending him into the corner. Storm gets sent to the floor though, allowing Eric to take over back inside. An elbow to the face gets two and a neckbreaker gets the same. We hit the chinlock for a bit before Storm fights up with some clotheslines. Roode intercepts Bram and all four guys brawl to the floor for the double countout at 4:07.
All four fight into the crowd.
Mike Bennett vs. Mandrews
Post match Bennett keeps pounding on Mandrews until Drew Galloway makes the save.
Post break and Bennett beats down Galloway and Mandrews in the back.
Odarg the Great (notice the spelling) is coming.
We look back at Angle vs. Lashley from last year.
Tag Team Titles: Wolves vs. Decay
Abyss pulls out Janice and before I can type “and he swings it, only to get it caught in the turnbuckle pad because HE ALWAYS GETS IT CAUGHT IN THE TURNBUCKLE PAD”, he swings it, only to get it caught in the turnbuckle pad because HE ALWAYS GETS IT CAUGHT IN THE TURNBUCKLE PAD. That means more violence as Abyss piles up chairs until Eddie gets up for the save, setting up sunset bomb onto the chairs.
Gail Kim/Madison Rayne vs. Jade/Marti Bell
Post match, the Dollhouse beats down Gail and Madison until Velvet Sky makes the save. Velvet wants Lethal Lockdown next week.
Jesse Godderz/Eli Drake vs. Mahabali Shera/Odarg the Great
Jesse has some better luck by taking Shera to the mat and setting up something like a Demolition Decapitator. Back up and the hot tag brings in Odarg to clean house as everything breaks down. A Sky High gets two on Jesse as Drake goes after the mask. Odarg pulls it off instead and rolls Drake up (looking him right in the face) for the pin at 5:00.
Matt Hardy/Tyrus vs. Ethan Carter III
