Results

Show starts with a quick clip of the Alberto Patron/Austin Aries press conference from New Orleans. They move onto WrestleCon with clips of the triple threat match with Pentagon winning. It’s pretty much the video package they played last week.

Braxton Sutter & Su Yung vs. Kiera Hogan & Fallah Bahh

Heels attack from behin to start the match.

This is an intergender match, not a mixed tag.

At one point, when Bahh is outside, Su Yung lands a cannonball from the apron on him, knocking the big man to the floor.

In the end of the match, Sutter was in the corner and Fallah Bahh tried to splash him. The ref was tending to Braxton though and Bahh came up short to avoid splashing them both. While this is going on, Su gets the kendo stick she walks to the ring with and opts to hit Fallah with it. The big man is unphased.

Sutter tosses Fallah out of the ring but soon eats a hurricane DDT from the top rope from Hogan. Su Yung delivers a palm strike to Hogan and delivers her finish for the win.

Sutter & Yung def. Hogan & Bahh

As Yung is slowly walking up the ring, still facing the ring looking at Braxton, Allie runs up and attacks her from behind! Sutter pulls Allie off but can’t control her and the women brawl until the referees have to break it up... but they can’t initially! Braxton and the referees are having a difficult time keeping these two apart!

LAX are in their club house. Santana and Ortiz are concerned about facing Steiner because the dude has no soul. Konnan suggests that Steiner may help Eli Drake but he could be a hinderance because you never know with Scott Steiner.

Jimmy Jacobs, with Kongo Kong at his side, is interviewed by McKenzie Mitchell backstage. Jacobs asks Mitchell what it’s like to be pretty, to tell Kongo Kong what it’s like to have things handed to them because of their looks. She’s just like Johnny Gorgeous. But he doesn’t blame them. They’re in their bubble. Tonight, Kongo is going to rip Johnny out of his bubble and make him ugly.

KM open challenge

He says he’s innovated a new match - the “KM Open Challenge” and then hopes he gets a bunch of jobbers who he lists off.

It’s Brian Cage!

KM takes the microphone back and tries to get out of it, saying they are bros and asks for a fist bump. He tries to then leave but Cages pulls him back in.

Match starts.

Cage owns the dude, finishing him off with an F5.

They play a video recapping Kongo Kong’s path of destruction. They play an interview with Jimmy Jacobs talking over it and it’s a pretty dang entertaining video.

Kongo Kong (w/Jimmy Jacobs) vs. Johnny Impact

This match is mainly Kong with Johnny using his speed/parkour to stay afloat.

However, when the fight spills outside, Johnny is tossed into the ringsteps and then Kongo hits him with a cannonball.

The big man looks at Jacobs who gives him a nod.

Kongo Kong tosses the referee into the guardrail, in essence ending the match. They set up the ring steps on the apron and Kong straight up lawn darts Johnny into it! Johnny is bleeding from his mouth!

Johnny def. Kongo via DQ

Kongo won the battle though.
