Time to see where we go!

Results:

Leon Slater comes out and starts a corny promo trying to act like he’s still sick about having to share a ring with Ryan Nemeth. Then kind of paraphrases a Daft Punk song talking about Nic keeps taking shortcuts because he sees him getting bigger, faster, harder, stronger…whatever. So Leon calls out Nic in stereotypical babyface “Lets do it right now” stupidity. Nic comes out and dismisses Leon and even hits the “My Little Brother” line! Nic tries to rile up Leon with Ryan laying in wait, but Leon sniffs it out and it turns into a pull apart. At least this is okay. 

Santino’s music hits, he says there’s a NO TOUCHING policy until Bound For Glory. If Nic breaks it, he’s stripped and Leon would lose the shot if he breaks it. Two and a half weeks of not touching…and it’s not even November.

Ryan Nemeth vs KJ Orso

Yikes, everyone can’t have an era. Undisputed Era, Era of Elayna, Era of Orso…stop it, use new words, buy a thesaurus. Ryan comes out and licks, then kisses the tag title and gets an audible reaction from the crowd. 

Early tie up, Ryan has the size advantage, he does a little hip swivel and KJ tries to use the Speed Kills idea with early Arm Drags, a PK to the Arm, quick dodges and ducks, a Crossbody along the middle ropes as KJ plays to the camera. Chain wrestling takedowns into a wristclutch Northern Lights for a pinfall, wants the KJ Clutch, but Ryan grabs the ropes and then drops KJ out of the ring. Rude Awakening on the floor from Ryan, and he’s in control now. Ryan takes him back into the ring, keeps him grounded with a Top Writlock, a few elbows to the collarbone and then a hard Irish Whip. Cocky pinfall from Ryan for only a 1 count. Standing switch from Ryan into a Mat Slam and some ground and pound. Ryan…actually looks pretty solid, basic offense, but solid heel mechanics.

KJ finally fights up, an STO to the left arm, tries to work the arm while also hitting an Asai Moonsault in the middle of the ring, ties Ryan into a pretzel and then Orso Driver for only two! KJ tries the Clutch again but Ryan slams him to the corner and Implant DDT gives Ryan a near fall. Rude Awakening again, but an X Plex counter from Orso, Springboard Corkscrew Moonsault into the KJ Clutch, but Ryan is rolling and fighting it. Counters with the pinfall, begs off in the ropes, Ryan with the blindside Lariat, posts KJ, Hollywood Ending, 1-2-3 and Ryan wins!

Ryan wins, all things are right in the world. 

Mustafa Ali is in the back with Mila and Skyler scolding whoever thought that his first match back should be a triple threat. Says they’re braindead, dumb and idiot…it was apparently Mila’s idea and Ali calls Mila “no brains, all Bimbo”. Skyler sticks up for Mila, says she’s a good person, Skyler is still simping. SUPER MEX IS IN THE AUDIENCE! Hernandez! 

Dot COMbat Match: The Righteous vs BDE & Rich Swann

aka Tornado Falls Count Anywhere match. Boo, they come out to BDE’s music, Rich’s is so much better. 

Dutch hits Death Walks on Rich instantly as BDE is now isolated. Dropped on his face and a near fall but Rich recovers to Low Bridge Dutch, Vincent stops the comeback. Rich bites Vincent and the Phoenix Splash on Dutch on the outside. Assisted Elevated Bulldog from BDE and Rich. They grab a few chairs, the crowd wants tables because…of course they do. BDE finds a PlayStation controller, pretends to plug it into Rich and control Rich hitting Dutch with a chair. Rich jumps off the apron and gets a near fall on the outside. BDE and Dutch fight up the ramp and punctuate the trip with a Fisherman’s Neckbreaker while Vincent and Rich are fighting around the ring. Vincent took over, Dutch stalks Rich and hits a Lariat on Rich. BDE starts to stir and gets tossed into the steps for breathing. Dutch wants a Running Knee but BDE dodges and tries to steal the match with a Roll-Up but Dutch kicks out.

Back in the ring Rich is getting bounced off a chair, but starts finally fighting back until a Drop Toe Hold sends Rich face first into the chair. Vincent and Swan are slugging it out while seated, seated Hockey Fight until Rich hits a nice Round Kick. They step up onto the chairs and start throwing hands, Rich gets crotched but hits an uppercut, it’s an awkward and borderline dumb spot because they keep having to step back up. Vincent hits a few Headbutts, then drops Rich face first into a third chair, Side Suplex and a near fall. BDE tries to get back in, but Dutch disposes of him, Rich with a desperation Trouble in Paradise, but Dutch walks in an Powerbombs Rich to stop that offense. Dutch looks to take out both, but misses into a chair, Rich and BDE are trying to find some momentum. Superkick Party on Dutch’s face, but Dutch hulks up, eats another Double Super Kick into a Double Cutter. Rich and BDE do the Dudleyz moment of “Get the table”. So the crowd pops, Dutch is bleeding and dazed, Tandem Suplex attempt but Vincent breaks it up.

Vincent DDTs Rich on the floor. BDE flips out of a move, hits a Cutter on Vincent, tries a Diving Crossbody, but Dutch catches him, Dutch wants to put BDE through the table, but BDE fights off, Rich shoves BDE out of the way and eats the Splash through the table. BDE hits the Clip Cutter and a Frog Splash, but Dutch pulls him out of the pin. Dutch posts BDE, feeds him to Vincent and Orange Sunshine!

They put the chair around BDE’s head and swing away like EVIL used to. They crown BDE with steel as King of the Meek. 

.@Averystyless will make his TNA in-ring debut at #TNABoundForGlory in the Call Your Shot Gauntlet, and @FrankieKazarian is entering the match too! #TNAiMPACT pic.twitter.com/6bcCZ17U6e

Santino says that Daria is now suspended because she hit her. Santino makes the decisions now and even though Xia whines, Santino says he has the badge and can do whatever he wants. So Indi Hartwell will get her title shot against Xia Brookside. 

Matt and Jeff Hardy come out as promised at the top of the second hour to get to the bottom of who the attackers are. Let’s see if anyone comes out. Man up, and show up. The lights start going funky, a chainsaw noise can be heard…or something and then the Hardys get jumped in the dark! It’s Sam Shaw and Joseph Sawyer and the team name seems to be Syx. Buzzards turned to vultures was a good line from Hannifan. 

Eddie Edwards w/Lish vs Elijah

Early goings turn in favor of Elijah, a rope run Back Elbow wipes out Eddie, Eddie tries to retreat to the ropes but Elijah goes around the World and hits the Driveby Knee Lift. Elijah wants the Rope Walk, but Lish gets on the apron to block him, then trips him up and Elijah levels Eddie but goes after Lish. As he’s stalking Lish, Eddie hits the Shot of Caffeine and crashes into Elijah. Eddie feeds him into the ring, starts smacking him around, Chops over and over. Elijah tries to fight up, but Eddie rakes the eyes. Eddie looks for a Tiger Driver but Elijah counters it with an Alabama Slam. Misses in the corner and they trade a few shots, Eddie wants the Backpack Stunner but Elijah turns it into a Crossroads! Walk with Elijah, Diving DDT into a near fall. Eddie tries to take control back, Dive off the middle rope but eats the Knee Lift! Elijah looks for the Elbow but Myers and Bear hit the apron, Ricky Sosa neutralizes Bear and Myers. Highwayman’s Farewell! 1-2-3.

#1 Contender for KO TV Match: Harley Hudson vs Gabby Forza vs Jada Stone vs Elayna Black

Elayna slaps Gabby and pays for it, Jada and Harley try to gang up on Gabby since she’s the powerhouse but that doesn’t work out well for them. Gabby works over Harley in the corner but Elayna hits a V Trigger to the back of Gabby’s head and starts to neutralize her, Jada fires back up, goes for a Splash, misses but kicks Gabby away, Leap Frog, Shotgun Kick and a near fall before Harley comes in and starts throwing Jada around. Harley and Gabby do stereo Sack of Shits, showing their power and then have a mutual strong girl face off, but Harley tries to lift Gabby and Gaby doesn’t move. Gabby picks Harley up, tosses her into Elayna, then cuts off Jada who’s trying something in a far corner, Tower of Doom style spot.

Elegance Brand is on the ramp, all four are connecting with different moves on each other, Gabby throws Jada in Harley to make Harley powder, Spark Stunner out of nowhere, but Gabby rolls away. Elayna hits the Black Out on Jada and Elayna wins the match.

Mila quits Order 4 and takes Skyler with her. Ali sends Agent Zero after them and he’s very flustered. We haven’t seen Tasha all night, and Ali mentions that, so I wonder if she’s going to help Hotch win or continue to side with Ali if Mila is really out of the picture now. 

TNA International Championship: Mustafa Ali (c) w/Tasha Steelz vs Jason Hotch vs Trey Miguel

Hotch attacks Ali before the bell, Trey shoves him off and then starts beating on Ali as the bell rings. Hotch and Ali jaw a bit but then pincer Ali on the outside. Ali tries to scramble through the ring as Hotch and Trey stomp the hell out of him. The teamwork is short lived and seemingly inadvertent at times. Trey hits the Tornado DDT inside, Ali powders and Hotch hits him with a Tornado DDT on the outside. They throw Ali in, then start pulling each other back out because they don’t want the other to win. They throw hands right in front of a camera, Ali dives into them, great camera work. Ali tells commentary to tell his “baby girl Happy Birthday” and it is Hotch’s daughter’s 3rd birthday, so its solid psychological warfare. Ali takes out Hotch, feeds Trey back in, Outside In Neckbreaker into a Moonsault and a two count. Hotch tries to stop Ali but Ali has answers for Hotch, trip into the buckle, Neckbreaker, Batista Bomb but Trey breaks up the pinfall. Rope run, Trey with the low rope rebound, German Suplex. Rocks Hotch in the ropes and then hits a Satellite DDT while Hotch is draped for a two count.

Trey wants something but Ali hits the Bell Clap to take control of the situation. Whipped into the ropes, Back Body Drop on Hotch and Ali is ruling the ring. Trey and Ali battle in the corner while Trey is perched, Ali hits a High Dropkick right into Hotch’s face. Trey and Ali battle up the buckles, Spanish Fly possibly? Hotch flies up to the top turnbuckle, grabs both men and Double Spanish Fly! All three get to their knees and start throwing hands. Trouble in Paradise from Hotch on Ali, but Ali counters Hotch by having him hit a Canadian Destroyer on Trey! They both counter each others Powerbombs but Hotch eats a Piledriver from Ali! 1-2-2.9!

Ali starts singing Happy Birthday, and chucks Hotch out of the ring. Trey is in the landing zone, 450 miss, Trey catches him with a Cutter, Trey hits Knee Slide Destroyers on both guys on the outside, throws in Ali, METEORA! 1-2-NO ALI KICKS OUT! Trey grabs a Headlock, but Hotch rolls in with a Rolling DDT on both guys! Hotch with a Brainbuster + DDT special for both guys. Hotch heads up, Splash on…TREY! Ali moves out of the way, but Trey kicks out! Trey rolls out and Ali has a stare down with Hotch. Hotch is trying to beg off, but pulls Hotch out. Ali tells Tasha to give him the belt…Tasha walks in with it. Hotch accidentally hits Tasha with the Stomp! Roll-Up, but Hotch kicks out, Ali posts Hotch! Trey misses the Meteora and Ali hits Trey with the belt, Ali retains!

Overall Score: 7.5/10

Ryan won his match, in a decent match, Sam Shaw and Joseph Sawyer being the expected duo is fine. People wanted to see the Wyatt Sicks members in TNA, so sometimes the obvious is a good thing. BDE had a nice flurry, so he might win that match next week. The Righteous are getting a dangerous edge to them, instead of just being weird. Avery Styles getting his official debut at Bound For Glory, which kind of feels like Frankie Kazarian just adding in one “easy” target. Daria getting suspended so Santino has free reign again is fun. Also the main event was great, and Ali acting like he was gonna carry Tasha back, just to drop her after a few feet and talk shit to the crowd is great work.

The worst part was Leon opening the show, and that was surprisingly tolerable. Elijah matches have been boring, this is no exception, but at least it wasn’t super offensive. Surprisingly…really good show. And yes the KO TV 4-Way was alright, a bit short, and probably the only bit of weird booking. Jada made it to the finals of the tournament and you have her eat the pin? I was expecting more of a sustained push for the runner-up. But again, still a very enjoyable show.
