By Dj Beal
Johnny Mundo Video Package
A video package plays to begin the show where it ended last week with Johnny Mundo. The return of Jim Cornette to Impact Wrestling. It also showed the showcases of the X-Division with the championship and Super X Cup on the line. Petey Williams and Taryn Terrell made their returns as Ohio Vs. Everyone showed their skills. The fallout from Lashley’s defeat and America’s Top Team’s involvement will start GFW Impact Wrestling.
Jeff Jarrett and Dan Lambert’s argument was shown from the end of the show last week. Lambert claims that Lashley is only in Impact Wrestling as a favor while Jarrett says that GFW has the money to keep Walking Armageddon. The argument between pro wrestling and MMA continues to boil over as James Storm gets involved. As for this week, America’s Top Team and Jeff Jarrett greet each other at the door but still, there are issues at hand.
Jim Cornette wants to make the talent stars in this business. He wants everyone to be fighting for their shots. Cornette has put together eighteen competitors from the 20 man gauntlet match that will main event tonight’s show. The winner becomes the new GFW Global Champion.
OVE vs The Heat Seekers
Result: OVE def. Heat Seekers
Ohio Versus Everything jump on the Heat Seekers from the very beginning of the match. They take the Seekers to the outside of the ring. OVE uses their educated feet in tandem to show their striking abilities. They bring something different to the table, not only are they polar opposites but they hit diving sentons on standing opponents. Not very much offense since even when they tried, they were hit with moves like a Hangman’s DDT on the apron. OVE wins their second consecutive match against the Heat Seekers.
Eli Drake wants a change in his spot in the gauntlet match. He compliments the boss in an attempt to get a different number. Cornette switches Eli Drake’s number to number two since it is technically a different number. A recap is played for Sienna’s Knockout’s Title defense at Destination X where we saw the return of Taryn Terrell.
