Impact Wrestling Results - 08/09

:impact:

- On last week's show: Allie and Kiera Hogan defeated Su Yung and a Bridesmaid, The OGz won a squash match, and Desi Hit Squad pulled out a victory over Fallah Bahh and KM. Grado and Joe Hendry's partnership continued to unravel and the main event saw oVe lose an action-packed contest against Pentagon Jr. and Fenix.

The show kicked off this week with a backstage brawl between the OGz and LAX. The OGz got the upper hand during this brawl and then LAX took control. It was brutal and it looks like they were battling through a coat checking area of the building. There were coathangers flying everywhere.

The fight spilled from one room to the next as these two teams tore each other apart. LAX took chair shots and finally, people showed up to try and break up the fight, but they were in a stairwell so the OGz easily took care of their pint-sized backstage staff. This is where it ended for now.

Desi Hit Squad vs Taiji Ishimori and Petey Williams

Gama Singh introduced the Desi Hit Squad and got heat from the crowd by just talking. Petey was obviously the most over out of everyone because of the Canadian crowd and they sang along with his theme song which is the Canadian national anthem.

Ishimori got a chance to shot off a little before Petey got the tag and hit a codebreaker and side Russain legsweep on Gursinder who followed with a move of his own after they traded a little back and forth action.

Rohit got the tag and Gursinder stuck around to hit a few double-team moves. They cut the ring in half on Petey as "Canada" chants broke out from the crowd. Rohit Raju kept the pressure on Williams until Gursinder took the tag and Petey started to fight back a little bit and Ishimori got the tag and hit a springboard dropkick on both members of Desi Hit Squad. He followed that up with another move on both of Gama Singh's men. Then Taiji pinned Rohit for a two count while "Bone Solider" chants broke out in the crowd.

Ishimori hit a shotgun dropkick followed by a Canadian Destroyer from Petey and a modified DDT from Taiji on Rohit for the win.

Winners: Petey Williams and Taiji Ishimori

- Pentagon Jr cut a promo.

- Allie cut a backstage promo saying she wanted a match against Su Young next week. She doesn't care about a title match and told Su Yung to leave her title a home "just bring your *ss." Then Kiera Hogan spoke up and said she can bring Tessa Blanchard too.

- They aired a segment that displayed Eddie Edwards' descent into madness and his repeated attacks on Austin Aries.

- Austin Aries cut a promo about Edwards next and asked what happened to Edwards. The man Aries once knew is not the man he's stepping in the ring with tonight. Aries said he's the Impact World Champion for a reason and guaranteed that he will come out on top.

- Grado and Katarina were backstage with Joe Hendry who reminded Grado of all the people who used to pink belly him until Joe stopped them. Now Hendry is going to make things better yet again by defeating Eli Drake. Then Katarina and Hendry left together with Grado following saying he wanted to go get macaroni.

Alisha Edwards vs Tessa Blanchard.

This was not a pretty match for Alisha. Tessa backed her into the corner and Alisha did hit a couple forearms, but Blanchard soon lifted Alisha up into a press slam and sent Alisha in the ring. Josh Mathews said it's like Lebron playing against high school players.

Blanchard followed by another punishing throw for a two count and then she hit a clothesline but kept her arm connected and Alisha tried a backslide, but Blanchard didn't like that so she kicked Alisha in the face and landed a stiff forearm to the back. "This has become a mugging," Mathews said.

Blanchard continued to pick Alisha apart, but she kept kicking out after Blanchard pinned her. Alisha moved out of the way causing Tessa to hit nothing but the robes and then Alisha sent Tessa's face smashing into the mat but she couldn't recover for a pinfall in time. Alisha hit a tilt-a-wirl DDT for two count and Tessa looked angry.

Blanchard caught Alisha and sent her down into the mat and then she hit a hammerlock DDT for the win.

Winner: Tessa Blanchard

- After the match, Tessa cut a promo on Allie and said the only thing Allie cares about is herself and the Knockouts Championship. She's coming after Allie if she's going after Su Yung and the Knockouts Championship.

- Matt Sydal cut a promo on what the X Division Title represents and he might have lost the title but he will carry on its spirit. He said he doesn't have a problem with anybody and he will finally open everyone's third eye.

- They plugged Chris Jericho's Rock n Wrestler Rager at Sea

- A throwback segment for the GWN between Petey Williams and Chris Sabin in the finals of the X Cup was next. Sabin won the match and won a big trophy when Kevin Nash suddenly jumped Sabin and beat him around the commentary table. Then Big Sexy destroyed the trophy and busted Chris wide open with a broken piece of the trophy before putting him back in the ring and hitting a jackknife powerbomb. Nash said size matters and left.

- KM and Fallah Bahh were backstage and KM was upset about how Bahh didn't listen to him last week when Scarlett walked by and said they were looking good... suddenly they lost track of what they were arguing about.

- Scarlett walked into the room with Impact management and we get a point of view shot with only the hands of the executives showing. They said they were giving Scarlett her own show called "Fantasy Island," but Scarlett suggested, "The Smoke Show." So that will happen next week.

Matt Sydal vs Pentagon Jr.
