Kash starts with Kenney and they trade armdrags, as Tenay relates the story of his “Empire Saint” nickname, which still sucks. Good spots, but the match didn’t really tell much of a story and Garza doesn’t really do anything for me. Garza tries another moonsault and misses, but counters a rollup for the pin at 24:41. Kazarian slingshots in with a DDT for two. Garza comes back with a moonsault for two. They slug it out and Kazarian sweeps him down and drops a leg for two. Kazarian goes up, but Sabin pops and throws him across the ring with a crazy release german, hitting Garza with his body on the way down! Garza crotches Sabin and dropkicks him out, however, leaving Garza v. So we’re down to Spanky”¦or not, who gets tossed doing Sliced Bread #2. Red and Kazarian then fight on the apron and Red gets kicked off. Psicosis dumps Jason Cross, and then slugs it out with Red and gets kicked off the apron. Spanky and Red put Kazarian on top, and then everyone left piles up in a crazy pyramid superplex spot. Spanky goes for a victory roll on Shane, and then dumps him from that position. And finally, Chris Sabin is #20, as he joins with Spanky to double-team Siaki. He springs back in and gets superkicked by Shane. Spanky, who thankfully adds more star power, is next and goes after Kazarian and Shane, but gets sent to the apron. Amazing Red is next as Alex Shelley goes up and gets tossed. D-Ray is next, and teams with Shark Boy, but they both get sent to the apron by Shane & Kaz, and then clotheslined out by Siaki. Psicosis is next and goes after Garza, but gets nowhere. I think my copy skipped forward a couple of minutes or something. How is Siaki an X-division guy? Garza tosses Bats as Shark Boy has appeared from somewhere. He hits people with various slams and tosses Nosawa. More fighting in the corners, and Sonny Siaki is up next. Matt Sydal comes in next and does a standing moonsault on Shelley, who is apparently hurt on the floor. Park gets backdropped out next, which the crowd hates since he’s on the few guys in there with star power. Alex Shelley is next, and he tosses Dutt and kicks him out. Shane hits him with an exploder, however, and it’s back to everyone slugging it out. Everyone fights in the corners and Mikey Bats is next, getting a stunner on Kazarian on the way in. Nosawa in next, and he dropkicks the shin of Garza, only to get kicked down by Park to end a nice sequence. Hector Garza is next and helps Park out to break up Shane & Kazarian, but Dutt flies in with a springboard armdrag on Park. Then Miyamoto, as Kazarian & Shane clean house. He drops the power elbow on Park as Clarke does a 630 splash and Michael Shane is next. Not much there, and Miyamoto is next, dressed as Great Muta. He makes use of it and stops to pose, because really what’s life without it? Kazarian attacks him as Jarelle Clarke is next and moonsaults Dutt. Next up is LA Park, of course wielding a chair. He comes back with a falcon arrow and Dutt gets double-teamed on the ropes, but fights out. Puma is next in, but walks into a rana from Dutt right away. Tornado DDT follows and they fight on the ropes, but Kazarian hangs on. Kazarian powers Dutt down and tosses him, but Dutt hangs on and comes in with a rana. – Opening match, X Gauntlet: We start with Kazarian (who has lost his first name since I last watched) and Sonjay Dutt. The six-sided ring is a neat look, however. I mean, even the graphics hyping the matches, with the wrestlers moving into a freezeframe, is exactly the same. And a total ripoff of the WWE style of production. – The video package that opens the show is a bit of a pretentious wankfest.
