The Race for the Case

Already Mahabali Shera, Trevor Lee, Jessie Godderz and Crazzy Steve are in the ring.

Matt and Jeff Hardy get an entrance. As does Eli Drake (who is accompanied by Tyrus). It looks like all Bram and Kingston are representing the DCC. Mathews says James Storm isn’t allowed. The last man to come out is the Miracle.

So apparently the number isn’t on the case. It’s in the case. So my defense of the match in the preview? Yeah, that’s nil.

Eli Drake captures the first case as Tyrus shields him.

Trevor Lee grabs another... and then jumps upon a bunch of people who are fighting at ringside.

TNA goes to break and when they return, Bennett is fighting Matt Hardy in the ring. He knocks Hardy out of the ring and instead of going for a briefcase since the ring was empty, the Miracle was stupid and followed him out.

In the ring, now Mahabali Shera took out the two members of the DCC but gets a MIP from the Miracle. Bennett then hits Hardy with a Cutter. He’s taken out by Godderz, who goes for a case who is take down by Steve. Crazzy knocks down Hardy and then jumps out of the ring himself instead of going for the case.

It looks like Matt had a premonition that lead him to the green briefcase but he keeps getting stopped. Steve lays him out again but Kingston is soon in taking it to Steve. The he and Bram hit a double pile driver. 

They are then taken out by Jessie Godderz and this gets chaotic Jessie is first on his feet and he goes and grabs the third case... but drops it and Bram catches it. The DCC win that briefcase.

Only one left. Matt takes care off Bennett as Jeff grabs the final one - the one that Matt had a premonition about.

Brooke vs. Deonna Purrazzo

Deonna starts with some headlock work but Brooke fights out and knocks her out of the ring. She follows Purrazzo out and the fight continues with Brooke in control. Back in the ring, Brooke continually knocks Deonna’s head against the turnbuckle and follows up with some forearms.

Brooke is in clearly control until Purrazzo finally fights back with some knees and some forearms of her own. 

Brooke responds with a series of clotheslines. She wins with a move where she picks up Purrazzo as if she’s going to belly to back her but instead tosses her on her face.

Brooke def. Purrazzo

Aron Rex & Rockstar Spud vs. Robbie E & Swoggle

Robbie E comes out and makes fun of Aron wearing women’s lipstick. Tonight, he’s got Aron’s number and he’s got Spuds... and Swoggle comes out.

Spud tags in Rex, who gets on the mic to say they are going to put the violence on hold so people can see what they want... him. But when Swoggle touches him, he insists on tagging out.

Swoggle hits Spud with a GTS but Rex is tagged in. Swoggle bites his hand and tags in Robbie who comes out with clotheslines against Rex.

Eventually Swoggle is giving Spud a stinkface in the corner but he’s then attacked from behind by Spud who’s using a foreign object. Robbie knocks Spud out of the ring, leaving Rex and Swoggle.

Swoggle is out from the hit from behind and Rex covers him 1-2-3.

Rex and Spud win.

Drew Galloway vs. Moose (c) for the Grand Championship

Round One: Both men lock in the middle where neither gave up ground. Galloway gets hit with a shoulder block, but kips up and flips him off. Galloway hits Moose with a shoulder block, but Moose kips up himself. (No middle finger.) Then both men exchange chops in the middle of the ring. A moose drop kick puts Drew down.

However Drew delivers a kick of his own to Moose. Drew tosses his body at Moose, who catches him and delivers a fall away slam. But Drew quickly hits a piledriver and goes for the cover for a 2 count. 

As the clock winds down, the men exchange strikes.

Very even round. My guess is going to be Galloway by split decision. (Piledrivers in my book earn more points.)

Drew Galloway wins by split decision

Round Two: The fight spills outside very soon in this round where the men exchange strikes. A bicycle kick from Moose but Drew follows up with a DVD onto the ring apron! But then Moose powerbombs Galloway on the ring apron! They are both down on the outside as the ref starts counting. They’re both in at 9.

Back in the ring, Moose hits a pop up powerbomb followed by a powerbomb. He goes for a moonsault off the second rope but Galloway moves and locks in his Iron Maiden Submission!

Moose is in for a bit before he is able to work his way to his feet but Galloway brings him back down and locks it back in! Moose survives.

I feel Galloway is winning this unanimously.

Moose wins by split decision

That’s some bad judging.

Round Three: Drew is out quick but both men are exchanging blows though clearly worn out. Galloway goes for the Future Shock but Moose escapes and goes for his clothesline. Galloway avoids it but gets hit with a kick.

Drew ends up going to the top but he’s met with a drop kick on the way down!

Moose tries to grab Galloway from behind, but he gets mule kicked in the crotch. The ref stops the clock and tells the judges to take a point away from Galloway. However, as soon as he starts the clock, Drew hits a Claymore for the 1-2-3.

Galloway wins by pinfall to become Grand Champion.
