Commentators: Josh Matthews, D’Angelo Dinero
Group Champions: Austin Aries vs. Mr. Anderson
Aries sends him to the floor for a suicide dive but Anderson comes back with the Regal Roll for two. Anderson tries another from the middle rope but gets slammed down, setting up the 450 for an even closer near fall. We see Thea getting nervous on the floor. This changes nothing whatsoever but she is in fact there. How very TNA of her.
A spinwheel kick of all things gets a near fall for Anderson and now the middle rope Regal Roll gets the same thing with less than two minutes to go. They fight over finishers for a bit until Aries connects with the discus forearm. The running dropkick staggers Anderson on the top and a super brainbuster kills Anderson dead for the pin at 14:02, eliminating Anderson from the competition.
Group Champions
Austin Aries – 4 points (1 match remaining)
Lashley – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
Ethan Carter III – 1 point (2 matches remaining)
Mr. Anderson – 0 points (1 match remaining)

Group X-Division: Tigre Uno vs. Mandrews
Tigre kicks him to the floor and scores with a baseball slide as Josh breaks down the math on Group Champions while getting in the phrase “playing spoiler” as many times as he can. Back in and Mandrews knocks him to the floor for a flip dive of his own but instead of following up he takes a lap around the ring high fiving fans. Back in Mandrews misses a shooting star and gets German suplexed into the corner. A quick corkscrew splash out of the corner (similar to Starship Pain) gives Tigre the pin at 6:42.
Group X-Division
Tigre Uno – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
DJZ – 0 points (3 matches remaining)
Manik – 0 points (3 matches remaining)
Mandrews – 0 points (2 matches remaining)
TNA World Title: Matt Hardy vs. Ethan Carter III vs. Drew Galloway
The Hardy Family celebrates while Ethan goes to the back to yell at Dixie.
Now, that last half hour? None of it matters because the title was vacated less than two days later so forget all this.
The announcers talk about Group Wild Card.
Group Future Four
Jesse Godderz – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
Micah – 0 points (3 matches remaining)
Eli Drake – 0 points (3 matches remaining)
Crimson – 0 points (2 matches remaining)
Clips of Micah vs. Eli Drake going to a double countout for 1 point apiece.
Group Future Four
Jesse Godderz – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
Micah – 1 point (2 matches remaining)
Eli Drake – 1 point (2 matches remaining)
Crimson – 0 points (2 matches remaining)
The hosts do their swipe right/swipe left game for a few names.
Group X-Division: Manik vs. DJZ
The announcers cover the mask being back by saying Manik wants better peripheral vision. Manik works on the arm to start but gets armdragged down a few times. A nice dropkick knocks Manik down again but the announcers would rather talk about Shane Helms (the greatest cruiserweight of all time according to Josh and Pope).
Group X-Division
Tigre Uno – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
Manik – 3 points (2 matches remaining)
DJZ – 0 points (2 matches remaining)
Mandrews – 0 points (2 matches remaining)
Clip of Carter vs. Lashley from over the summer.
Group Champions: Lashley vs. Ethan Carter III
Carter hides in the corner and then on the floor for the first two minutes. Lashley finally gets his hands on him and scores with some running shoulders to the ribs. A clothesline puts Carter on the floor and we take a break. Back with Lashley following Carter to the floor, only to get clubbed in the back and sent into the steps.
Group Champions
Austin Aries – 4 points (1 match remaining)
Ethan Carter III – 4 point (1 match remaining)

Mr. Anderson – 0 points (1 match remaining)

Opening sequence.
Asuka vs. Billie Kay
The announcers rave about Asuka.
Video on Baron Corbin.
Colin Cassady/Enzo Amore vs. Scott Dawson/Dash Wilder
Enzo and Colin take a beating post match.
Video on Rhyno.
Breast cancer is bad.
Danny Burch vs. James Storm
Storm does his catchphrase.
Apollo Crews vs. Finn Balor is in two weeks.
Nia Jax is still here and is back next week.
Alexa Bliss vs. Peyton Royce
Joe vs. Breeze next week.
Rhyno vs. Baron Corbin
They immediately brawl to start and fight to the floor for all of five seconds. Back in and Rhyno gets the better of it and punches him up against the ropes, sending Baron out to the floor for a breather. Rhyno follows him out but gets sent into the post as we take a break. Back with Baron slowly stomping away and putting on a chinlock to slow things down even more.
Rhyno fights up and they head outside again with Corbin being sent into the steps. Back in and a quick suplex gets two for Rhyno, followed by the spinebuster for the same. The Gore connects for a surprising two (good) and the fans want one more. Rhyno proves that listening to the fans is a bad idea as he charges into the End of Days for the pin at 12:29.
Results
Asuka b. Billie Kay – Asuka Lock
Colin Cassady/Enzo Amore b. Scott Dawson/Dash Wilder – Small package to Dawson
James Storm b. Danny Burch – Eight Second Ride
Alexa Bliss b. Peyton Royce – Sparkle Splash
Baron Corbin b. Rhyno – End of Days

Monday Nitro #242
Date: May 29, 2000
Location: E Center, Salt Lake City, Utah
Commentators: Scott Hudson, Mark Madden, Tony Schiavone
Nash has a present for Ric: the World Title. That would be title change #17 since the beginning of the year. Cue Jarrett who thinks the three of them are whining like a bunch of women on the View. Russo has made Nash vs. Rick Steiner and Tank Abbott in a handicap match. So was that going to be for the title in the first place or did Russo really not care about what happens to the belt?
Vampiro arrives in a gasoline truck.
Ric is looking for his family. This is a B movie plot.
Apparently the title match is on as Flair had no choice. In other words: Russo gets what he wants and Flair is broken one more time.
Lieutenant Loco vs. Disco Inferno
Mike Awesome vs. G.I. Bro
Kevin Nash vs. Rick Steiner/Tank Abbott
Goldberg leaves.
Hardcore Title: Terry Funk vs. Vampiro
Ric is still looking for his family.
Here are Kimberly, Awesome and Palumbo to call out Elizabeth for what happened last week. Elizabeth, who is finally free, ACTUALLY COMES OUT ON HER OWN! She deserves to be kidnapped over and over again. Kimberly has them kidnap Elizabeth again and yells a lot as this is pretty clearly another Russo fantasy on screen.
Cue Page to clean house but Bischoff sends out the cops to arrest Page for violating the restraining order. Palumbo attacks THE COPS with the exercise bar before hitting Page, only to have Luger come out in a face mask to beat up Palumbo. Luger and Liz leave but Awesome gets up to beat on Page even more. This brings KARL MALONE out of the crowd to Diamond Cut Awesome in a call back to the good old days. Yet another Russo fantasy/illogical segment which accomplished very little and got Karl Malone over instead of the two pay per view matches.
US Title: Scott Steiner vs. Shane Douglas
Hogan is in the yellow and red.
Sting vs. Kidman
WCW World Title: Ric Flair vs. Jeff Jarrett
Fans throw trash in the ring as the Flairs are taken away by security to end the show.

It now features live calls and you can get on the show and ask myself and the host (a bright fellow in his own right) whatever you like. I’m sure we’ll have a lot to cover after last night’s Raw and with Hell in a Cell coming up on Sunday.
You can call in at 1-605-562-8001, then press 5 to get through.
You can also listen live i95sportsnetwork.com or on the Zeno Radio Live app, which is available on most App stores on whatever device you have.
The show will be running from 10pm to 1130pm EST and is always fun. I’ve been on the show several times over the years and always have a great time. Check it out and call in.

It’s another shoulder but there’s no word on how much if any time he’ll be out for. That’s going to make for some very interesting shows going forward with Cena and potentially Orton leaving soon for a long time.

Night Raw
Date: October 19, 2015
Location: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas
Commentators: Michael Cole, Byron Saxton, John Bradshaw Layfield
John Cena/Dudley Boyz vs. New Day
Post match Woods takes an AA, followed by a superbomb through a table.
Nikki Bella/Alicia Fox vs. Naomi/Sasha Banks
Back with Fox keeping Naomi from tagging out, followed by a double suplex (was that the empowering part? I for one could certainly feel women everywhere being stronger when a Bella did a basic wrestling move so it must have been). Naomi comes back with some kicks but Nikki hits a running dropkick to the ribs before bending over to choke Naomi on the ropes. A few more kicks are enough for Naomi to tag in Sasha for some knees to the face (empowerment down by two points).
We recap Kane pinning Rollins last week. This has resulted in Corporate Kane being suspended. Of course the Authority could solve the obvious problem this creates by just saying KANE has been suspended but that would make too much sense. For the bosses of a global corporation, HHH and Stephanie are dumb sometimes.
Ryback vs. Seth Rollins
We look at Summer Rae costing Rusev a match on Smackdown and then getting turned down by Ziggler.
Dolph Ziggler/Cesaro/Neville vs. King Barrett/Sheamus/Rusev
Brie Bella vs. Charlotte
Renee Young comes up to accuse Paige of attacking Natalya last week. Paige thinks it might have been Summer Rae, Lana, Eve Torres, Kaitlyn, Trish Stratus or even Lita. Renee presses her on this so Paige says Renee is no Erin Andrews, nor is she as cute.
Kevin Owens vs. Mark Henry
Long video on the history of Lesnar vs. Undertaker. Well their recent history as their first Cell match is ignored.
The Kickoff match has been changed to a rematch of the six man from earlier tonight.
Roman Reigns/Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins vs. Wyatt Family
Reigns cleans house post match with a HUGE dive over the top and spears to Bray and Erick. The fans think this is awesome to end the show.
Results
New Day b. John Cena/Dudley Boyz – Rollup to D-Von
Nikki Bella/Alicia Fox b. Naomi/Sasha Banks – Rack Attack to Naomi
Seth Rollins b. Ryback – Pedigree
Rusev/King Barrett/Sheamus b. Neville/Cesaro/Dolph Ziggler – Barrett pinned Ziggler after a Brogue Kick
Charlotte b. Brie Bella – Figure Eight
Kevin Owens b. Mark Henry – Pop Up Powerbomb
Wyatt Family b. Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins/Roman Reigns via DQ when Ambrose used a kendo stick

Given that Cena is taking time off, it really wouldn’t surprise me to see Big Show come in, hurt Cena REALLY REALLY BADLY with like two punches because he’s a giant (don’t you know?) and then dominate the belt until TLC or so.
Or Tyler Breeze.
