Impact Wrestling, Destination X 2017: Results and Highlights for August 17
By Dj Beal
Finals Match in the Super X Cup
Taiji Ishimori vs Dezmond Xavier
Result: Xavier def. Ishimori via pinfall
This match is quick from the very start as both competitors try to use their speed. Ishimori takes initial control as Xavier takes a second on the outside of the ring. He continues his control of Ishimori but actually slows down the pace by trying to wear down Xavier. The slow pace doesn’t last for long as Ishimori turns up the knob on the match. As it looks like Ishimori was firmly in control, Xavier begins his fight back into the match.
He shows speed of his own as the match progresses. The high risk style of Xavier allows Ishimori a chance at a comeback. The 450 splash that has practically put away everyone in the Super X Cup can’t put away Dezmond Xavier. Xavier follows up with a back handspring pele kick to win the Super X Cup. After the match, Dezmond Xavier states that no one will forget that he won the Super X Cup especially the X-Division Championship.
Grado is show backstage notably upset because of how difficult it has been to find an American wife. On the verge of getting deported, Joseph Parks says that Grado isn’t going to hide behind a keyboard and be a mark. Next week, Grado will give his goodbye.
