IMPACT Wrestling X-Division Championship Number One Contender's Match: Petey Williams vs. Rohit Raju vs. Acey Romero w/Larry D vs. TJP vs. El Phantasmo vs. Ace Austin w/Madman Fulton
Former IMPACT Wrestling X-Division Champions Rohit Raju, Ace Austin, and Petey Williams sent the competition to the floor. Raju got the best with Williams and Austin, hitting a Russian legsweep/neckbreaker combination on both men. Acey Romero dragged Ace to the floor, driving him into the barricade.
Romero then targeted Raju and Petey, hitting Raju with Maple Leaf Muscle. TJP rocked him with a slingshot dropkick, and in the ring dropped El Phantasmo with a tilt-a-whirl head scissors. Phantasmo made it to the top, hitting Old school while walking TJP all around the ring and dodging everybody else in the match.
Ace Austin was dropped from on high, with Phantasmo hitting the Finlay Roll to the floor on the majority of the competitors. Back from the break, TJP was going wild on the X-Division. The multi-time IMPACT Wrestling X-Division Champion hit a drive-by boot on Petey Williams before Raju caught him with one of his own.
The Mocca Skin Manimal got a nearfall on TJP before being taken out by Acey Romero. Ace Austin was tossed to the floor while Petey Williams hit the Canadian Destroyer on El Phantasmo. 1-2-no, TJP just broke it up! Ace Austin dove onto Acey on the floor, leading to a brawl between Madman Fulton and Larry D.
Back in the ring, TJP dropped IMPACT Wrestling original Petey Williams with the Detonation Kick but missed the Mamba Splash. El Phantasmo countered another Destroyer from Petey, hitting a neutralizer for the win.
Results: El Phantasmo defeated Petey Williams via pinfall on IMPACT Wrestling.
Grade: B-
Backstage, Susan and Kimber Lee were in Scott D'Amore's office. Susan demanded a tag match against Tenille Dashwood and Taylor Wilde, though Kimber wasn't exactly happy with that. The EVP of IMPACT Wrestling made it official regardless, setting the match up for Under Siege.
