TNA KOTM Championship 
King of the Mountain Ladder Match
“Showtime” Eric Young (c) vs. Bram vs. Will Ospreay vs. Big Damo vs. Jimmy Havoc 
 
Rules are pretty simple if you don’t already know them. The name of the game is trying to hang the title above the ring, rather than pulling it down in a typical ladder match (so in essence a Reverse Ladder Match). To be eligible to hang the title, however, a wrestler must first gain a pinfall or submission on one of the other opponents (falls do count anywhere as well), and for sixty seconds the wrestler that is pinned (or submits) will be forced to remain in a penalty box. Once a wrestler has gained eligibility to hang the belt he has that right for the entirety of the match (meaning he doesn’t have to gain a pin each time he wants to hang the title). The bell rings and Big Damo lifts Bram up on his shoulders and hits a Samoa Drop while also hitting a Fall Away Slam on EY at the same time! Jimmy Havoc comes in and belts Damo with a massive Roaring Elbow! Osprey goes for a springboard Back Handspring move but Havoc catches him in midair with a Reverse DVD followed by a second one! Havoc goes for a Lariat but Osprey catches him with a Crucifix Rollup for a pin! 
 
Havoc is forced to sit in the penalty box while Osprey attempts to hang the title. EY cuts Ospreay off by flipping the ladder over causing Ospreay to crash hard into the turnbuckles in a nasty bump! On the outside Bram and EY hit a Hart Attack on Ospreay! EY and Bram beat on Damo on the ring steps and take turns beating on him. Havoc is free from the penalty box and immediately climbs to the top of the penalty box and dives off of it with a Plancha onto Damo and Bram! EY decks Havoc and tosses him back in the ring. EY whips Havoc into the corner and charges at him only for Havoc to backdrop EY to the apron. Havoc hits a Forearm Smash and then attempts to Alabama Slam Havoc off the ring steps, but EY reverses it into a Spike Piledriver on the steps! 1…2…3! EY is eligible to hang the title and Havoc goes right back to the penalty box. IN the ring Damo hits a Fireman’s Carry Slam and then goes for the BackSplash Senton, but Bram gets his knees up and hits the Brighter Side of Suffering! Bram pins Damo and Damo goes to the penalty box. As EY is setting up the ladder Bram grabs the KOTM Title and they stare each other down. EY starts smiling and they trade big right hands! EY screams at Bram and then hits the ropes only to eat a Spinning Heel Kick from Bram! Bram sets the ladder back up and climbs up top, but EY pushes it over causing Bram to get clotheslined on the top rope. EY climbs up the ladder but Ospreay takes him out with an AJ Styles like Springboard Flying Forearm! Ospreay climbs up the ladder but EY dives off the top rope with a Flying Neckbreaker on Ospreay off the ladder! EY climbs up the ladder again hangs it!
