They promoted the King of the Mountain match, showing clips of Abyss staring at a mirror and destroying it with his chain.

Shane Douglas interviewed Shocker. Shocker, in English, said that he came to TNA to show the world that he’s the best Luchador in the world. Alex Shelley, returning to TNA with no sign of his “Baby Bear” character (Thank God) showed up and told Shocker that he was going to show the world that while Shocker was a great Lucha star, Shelley was a hybrid wrestler, rattling off every style of wrestling he excels at. Shocker cut a promo in Spanish and when Shane Douglas asked him what he said, he told Shane, “He doesn’t know what he got himself into.”

Shocker vs. Alex Shelley

The crowd chanted “Welcome back” to Shelley. They went back and forth early reversing each other’s moves with Mike Tenay giving background on both and putting over Shocker’s international reputation. Mike Tenay put over TNAWrestling.com and announced that TNA will be airing Impact! every Friday on the website starting this Friday. Alex Shelley walked outside the ring to try and slow down the momentum of the match. Shocker lit up Shelley with a series of chops. Shelley tried several takedowns to bring Shocker to the mat but they were thwarted, upsetting Shocker. Shelley offered his hand to Shocker and kissed Shocker’s boot in respect, then kicked him. Shelley shoulderblocked Shocker. Shocker dropkicked him in the head. Shocker missed a rolling slingshot splash but his a headscissors takeover. Shelley ended up outside tyhe ring and hid to prevent a dive by Shocker. He knocked Shocker out of the ring and went for a plancha, but missed. Shocker hit a dive to the floor. Shocker went for a moonsault but Shelley got his knees up. Shelley hit a backdrop driver on Shocker then kicked him in the ribs with a dropkick. Shelley tied up Shocker with a European submission then hit a stiff kick to the back of the neck. Shelley suplexed him, floating over for a near fall. Shocker kicked him in the solar plexus, bringing him out of the ring. Shocker hit a suicide dive to the floor, with both “hitting their heads” on the floor after connecting. Shocker returned to the ring first. He suplexed Shelley in, but Shelley landed on his feet and locked in a cradle package for a near fall. Shelley kicked Shocker and got a near fall after a DDT. They reversed several different cradle attempts with Mike Tenay bringing up that it was the Mexican and European versions of the maneuvers. Shocker finally tied up Shelley and scored the pin.

Your winner, Shocker!
