The two exchange pin attempts before reaching an athletic stalemate. Headlock by Bailey, but Laredo gets a head scissors for a few pin attempts. Bailey hits a pump kick to LK on the outside after a scouted tope. Bailey gives some hard knees to LK in the corner, but LK kicks out.
This is a back and forth exchange as both stars use their speed and high-flying. LK hits an Asai moonsault to Speedball.
LK goes for Uno Mas and he hits it. Two count. Bailey gets several pin attempts on LK but nails a swift moonsault to the outside on Laredo. “Speedball” chants. Speedball nails a missile dropkick. Twisting shooting star press by Bailey gets another two count. Bailey goes for his signature kicks, but LK powerbombs him. He gets Bailey cornered for a Superman forearm. Bailey charges back and hits LK in the opposite corner. Massive Michinoku Driver by LK. “Speedball” chants again.

Moonsault knees, a kick to the head. Bailey covers LK and goes for a pin attempt, a crucifix pin gets the win for Bailey, but Speedball has his foot under the ropes.
WINNER: Mike Bailey
We see Ace Austin who is in Tokyo for the Super Juniors. He patronizingly applauds Bailey. Mike chose to be selfish and now he has to learn the hard way, like Trey Miguel. As long as Ace is in the picture, everyone else is in second place. While his focus is here in NJPW for the Super Juniors, he is going to be ready for the Ultimate X.
Matt Cardona and Chelsea Green are on their honeymoon and they talk trash on Rich Swann and the Knockouts division.
Deonna Purrazzo, Tasha Steelz & Savannah Evans vs. Jordynne Grace, Taya Valkyrie, and Mia Yim
Deonna and Grace start it off. They reach a stalemate. Tag to Taya and tag to Tasha. Taya hits a hard set of elbows at the ropes before stomping a mudhole in the corner. Knees to Tasha. Blue Thunder bomb by Taya for a two count.
Back from break Grace hits a Jackhammer, but soon finds herself stuck in the ring as her foes try to keep her isolated. Grace hits an explosive suplex. Grace hits a blackout and hot tags Mia Yim. Shotgun dropkick to Tasha in the corner. That’s followed by a twerk and a cannonball, a sit-out powerbomb. Savannah Evans comes in to wreck house and Grace plays the equalizer.
Yim takes it to Deonna until the Virtuosa hits a pump kick. Deonna tags in Evans. Yim hits a Eat The Feet to Savannah Evans for the W.
WINNERS Mia Yim, Taya Valkyrie, and Jordynne Grace
Locker Room Talk with Madison Rayne and Tenille Dashwood. In comes Zicky Dice and Johnny Swinger. The room electrifies and in appears Havok and Rosemary. The Influence want Decay to earn a Tag Titles shot. Zicky Dice recognizes Havok from Swinger’s Dungeon and that gets him shoved.
Chris Sabin may have not won the Gauntlet For The Gold but he’s open for a challenge. Next week on IMPACT on AXS TV, he wants to revisit his Battle Of The Futures by facing Frankie Kazarian.
We look back at that very match and head to commercial. When we return, we see the hype for Eric Young and his Slammiversary battle against Josh Alexander.
Mike Bennett & Matt Taven vs. The Good Brothers
Bennett and Karl slug it out. Doc Gallows gets tagged and regulates with Bennett before turning Taven inside out with a lariat for a two count.
Soon Gallows gets Anderson in and he becomes a target for Taven and Bennett. Double team sets up a dropkick to Anderson and he continues to be cornered.
Gallows gets the hot tag and he levels Taven for a near fall. Taven fights back with a springboard moonsault on Gallows for a two count. Kingdom have a miscommunication and the GBs go to work on Bennett. Double team neckbreaker. Anderson covers but Maria Kanellis, who was on commentary once more, gets on the apron. Anderson blows Maria a kiss before a Gun Stun. Maria gets in the ring. Bennett charges at Anderson who moves and Mike spears Maria. Gun Stun. 1-2-3.
WINNERS: The Good Brothers
Sami Callihan cuts a promo on Moose. Watch out for the Death Machine as he’s not happy Moose put him on the shelf for so long.

Masha is totally dominant. Big running boot in the corner and she drags Reed out for a pin attempt. She lifts Shawna up at two. Snow Plow. It’s all over.

IMPACT World Tag Team Championship
VBD vs. Briscoe Brothers (c)
The Briscoes show why their champions when they isolate Deaner. Jay stomps a mudhole before tagging in his brother Mark. Doering gets tagged in and levels the brothers as we head to break.
Back from it, Doering is dominant to Jay. VBD boots Jay on the apron and soon enough, Eric Young gets a cheap shot in.
Mark Briscoe gets the hot tag and he lays it into Deaner from up top with a near fall. Jay Briscoe boots Doering on the outside and the brothers hit a double team neck breaker powerbomb which Deaner just barely kicks out.
Jow Doering sends Mark Briscoe into the ring post as he then gets a tag from Deaner. Doering hits a spinebuster on Jay for a close one.
Jay catches Doering with a standing Rana and then hits Deaner with a rolling elbow. Jay gets Deaner up and Mark aims for a Doomsday Device, but Doering gets hold of Mark. As they scuffle, Jay rolls Deaner up for the 1-2-3.
WINNERS and STILL IMPACT World Tag Team Champions: Briscoe Brothers
VBD immediately goes on the attack, but out comes Alexander for a save and staredown with number one contender Eric Young. As this goes on, Deaner and Doering attack the Champion from behind, but the Briscoes return the favor and save Alexander. End of show.
