TNA Impact Wrestling: Results and Analysis for February 23
By Dj Beal
TNA X-Division Championship Match
Trevor Lee (c) vs DJ Z
Result: Lee def. DJ Z via pinfall
This is DJ Z’s guaranteed rematch for the X-Division Championship and the Helms Dynasty is one member fewer after ousting Andrew Everett. Zema Ion starts the match off quickly with a dive outside of the ring and he is in control early in the match. This rivalry reignited when Lee took out the leg of DJ Z before cashing in his title match at Open Fight Night. The leg injury slows Zema down in this match as he struggles to use his normal offensive maneuvers. He finds his adrenaline and has Lee on the ropes but the involvement of Gregory Helms allows Lee to win with a leverage pin. After the match, DJ Z lays out Helms but is taken out with a jumping knee. Lee goes after the leg of Zema again but Everett comes to save the day.
The Greatest Marriage in History
Braxton Sutter and Laurel Van Ness are set to get married and as normal the groom comes out first. Aron Rex and Rockstar Spud are the flower girls to go with Rex’s transformation. Maria and Sienna join the wedding party to support the bride. Laurel Van Ness appears in her wedding dress much to the chagrin of Sutter as Spud tries to get a peek. Allie brings the rings to the wedding as Maria continues to try and embarrass her. The reverend gives the expressed version of the wedding and move to vows. The Impact Zone objects to the wedding of Sutter and Van Ness. Braxton Sutter says I don’t to the acceptance of marriage and drops a bombshell on Laurel. He professes his love for Allie who quits being Maria’s assistant which starts a brawl. After everything is cleared, the night ends with a kiss from between Braxton and Allie.

This was not as great as the Aces and Eights Wedding where Taz joined the group but it wasn’t bad. The fans finally received the payoff that we have all been waiting for. Allie and Braxton are finally together and Allie finally defied authority. Additionally, the guests were hilarious and it was an interesting place to insert the climax of this story.
