Impact opens with a video of the recent events leading into tonight's show. Starting with The Hardy's being "transported" last week to Tijuana, Mexico. Where they will begin their "Expedition of Gold" at the Auditorio Municipal, against Super Crazy & Psicosis. The video also shows the conclusion of last week's World Championship match between Lashley and Eddie Edwards. Which saw Eddie's Wolves partner Davey Richards betray him. The opening five minutes of the show are featured in the video below.
We are now in the Impact Zone, and Decay's new theme "Left Behind" hits as they make their way to the ring for this mixed tag match.
Rosemary & Crazzy Steve w/Abyss Vs. Brandi Rhodes & Moose
Madison Rayne is in on commentary for this mixed tag match. Standard mixed tag rules where the men and women can only wrestle each other. Rosemary teases starting things off with Brandi first, but instead tags in Crazzy Steve. Moose has to come in now. Rosemary distracts him and Steve leaps onto his back and rakes him in the eyes. Steve then does 2 straight basement dropkicks on Moose. He goes for a third but Moose fires up and knocks Steve down with a shoulder tackle. On commentary, The Pope talks about Moose coming to the defense of Cody's wife last week. Mathews chimes in, and in a roundabout way, mentions how he would appreciate someone coming to the aid of his wife. Rayne is of course Josh's wife. She is sitting right next to him here... Moose is in control until Abyss gets involved. He attacks Moose and throws him into the ring steps. Brandi runs into the ring to object. Referee Earl Hebner tries to get Brandi back into her corner. This distraction enables The Decay to double team Moose on the outside, while Rosemary screams at Brandi and taunts her. Crazzy Steve controls the next few minutes of the match by grounding Moose with a chinlock. Moose eventually battles back and starts trading strikes with Crazzy Steve. When Moose wins the exchange, Abyss reaches into the ring, grabs Moose and helps Steve retake control of the match. In a cool spot, Steve charges at Moose, gets rolled up and then Moose powerbombs Steve with one arm. He launches him over the top rope and onto Abyss at ringside. Rosemary now climbs onto Moose's back. Brandi gets into the ring and pulls Rosemary down. She then delivers a couple of chops to her. Brandi then connects with a second rope missile dropkick on Rosemary. Brandi and Moose now work in tandem against Rosemary and Crazzy Steve.
