Show opens with AJ Styles & Karen Angle coming out to bore us on the mic, storyline c**p no-one ever cared about. Tenay & West talk to LAX & Hector Guerrero who are "live from Houston, Texas" (which is obviously backstage @ The Impact Zone).
Tag Match, James Storm & Robert Roode vs The Motor City Machineguns. Shelley & Sabin were the better team here by far, Storm & Roode had a few decent moments but their not even in the same league as The Guns. I assume neither Roode nor Storm fancied getting hit by The Guns better skillset hence the c***py "accidental beer in the face" Russo inspired finish from Jaqueline with Alex Shelley getting the pin off James Storm. Storm & Roode hit officials. They also assault Security, West, Tenay & the ring announcer. Cornette puts a stop to things arranging another match for Storm & Roode later.
Knockout Bimbo Brawl (Hardcore Match), Moose vs Roxxie. Now I already know from having watched CZW's Tournament Of Death 7 that Moose is one violently tough woman! Moose took good bumps & Roxxie took some excellent headshots from the metal trays but Moose took a very hard looking head shot from a street sign. Moose got the win after Roxxie went head first into a chair then took a double underhook DDT into the street sign. Good hard looking match! Find a WWE Diva who'd do this? You can't!
World X Cup 2nd Round, Team International (Alex Kozlov) vs Team Mexico (Rey Buccanero). Most awesome move was Kozlov's Flipdive (landing on his feet as well!), Buccanero won with a wicked twisting Senton, score Team Mexico 2 points in the World X Cup. Good match, very quick, very fluid.
Kurt Angle & Team 3D bore us on the mic.
World X Cup 2nd Round, Team Japan (Milano Collection A.T. with his invisible dog) vs Team TNA (Curry Man). Collection showed some wicked flexibility with anice Matrix Move & a rising bridge. Collection got the win & 2 points for Team Japan after a low blow & a twisting backwards moonsault.
Special Knockout Challenge Match, Raisha Saeed (with Awesome Kong) vs Shantelle Taylor. This was a really good match, the crowd were marking for Taylor especially when she was down, she gave a good offense & took good bumps. Taylor got an excellent win off a really good looking (and very well held) German Suplex in her 1st proper match under TNA contract.
James Storm & Robert Roode (now collectively known by their new team name Beer Money) vs Kevin Nash & Samoa Joe. Nash & Joe had the upper hand at 1st but when Beer Money were on top they were working better together as a tagteam than I've ever seen them work. Star of the match was still Joe though, the reverse Pele onto Roode sitting on the top turnbuckle was awesome & Joe took the win off The Muscle Buster. Show ends with a tease on the return of Sting.
