After a few near-falls, Stevie hits Abyss with a Stevie-Kick for another near-fall. Abyss grabs Stevie by the throat after Stevie starts talking to him, and despite Stevie’s attempt to fight back, Abyss hits a Black Hole Slam.

Winner: Alyssa Flash | Rating: 1 /10

Yawn, that match was too one-sided for me … I hope that those that were watching seized the moment to go get that treasured refill!

After the match, Traci seemingly recovers and attacks Flash. Amongst swearing heard being said in the commotion, Traci says she’s going to “kill” Flash just before commercial.

Jim Neidhart v. Jay Lethal | Legends Challenge

Neidhart starts off in command with a big Back Body Drop. But, after Neidhart misses a charge in the corner, Lethal takes control and hits a Double Axe Handle from the top turnbuckle. Lethal goes for a clothesline, but it turns into a double clothesline sending both men to the ground. Lethal jumps out of the ring while driving Neidhart’s neck into the ropes for a near-fall. Lethal misses a running elbow, and as he goes for a Crossbody, Neidhart catches him and hits a Powerslam for the win.

Winner: Jim Neidhart | Rating: 6.5/10

After the match, a promo that was taped earlier is shown. Lashley is seen with Lauren talking about Steiner. Lashley’s mad that Steiner brought Krystal into their business, and he’s looking to get Steiner back. A clips of Steiner is shown, and he’s talking about how a husband’s the last to know when his wife’s in love with another man. Steiner says that he couldn’t be there because he couldn’t get a hotel as he forgot his wallet. Steiner goes on to say that he’s lucky to have Lashley’s room, and Lashley rushes to the scene followed by a camera crew

And now for another Tidy Cats commercial! Ohh, don’t have a cat? Well then use it for yourself! New and improved Tidy Cat formula has been proven to help save the environment and is also edible! Wait, I meant the litter … not the lumpy brown stuff. Oh well …

Wilde comes in and goes for a Crossbody but is deflected by Kong. After Taylor dodges an Awesome Bomb, however, she’s hit by the Implant Buster.

Not much to say, the rating is only because it’s the same thing every match.

-         Velvet and Madison take all the damage

-         Kong comes in for the save at the last minute

BEER MONEEEY!

Winners: Beer Money | Rating: 7.5/10

A little better than the matches that earned a “7” rating, not necessarily great enough for an “8”. Good showing though, the tag title match at Turning Point should be a good one!

AJ Styles v. Samoa  Joe

Styles has to chase after Joe to get him to fight, but soon enough he gets him in the ring. After a Phenomenal Dropkick from Styles, Joe sends him into the turnbuckles and delivers some punches. Joe continues with an STF followed by a Crippler Crossface.

RIP C. Benoit

Joe goes on with some punches to Styles before Styles can counter with some punches of his own. Styles hits a Big Boot on Joe, but Joe’s able to come back with a clothesline for a near-fall. Styles counters a  Powerbomb into a Spin-Kick, but misses a Styles Clash. Joe hits a Back Body Drop but misses a clothesline, allowing Styles to hit a Pele Kick. Styles tries to climb the ropes but Daniels hits them making Styles fall. Styles slaps Daniels after a short argument, but then Joe applies a Choke Hold and Styles passes out.

Winner: Samoa Joe | Rating: 7.5/10

Joe picks up the title belt and holds it over Styles’ body as the show goes off.

Decent show, could’ve been WAY better … however, I like the way the creative team has played everything to work out at the PPV. Ohh, and before I forget …
