NXT + Impact

WWE NXT6

Commentators:  Tony Dawson, S. William Regal, & Jim Ross(for the main event).  Ring announcer:  Byron Saxton.

Jimmy & Jey Uso vs. Primo & Epico Colon(w/ Rosa Mendes):  SIVA TAU~!  The commentators(mostly Regal) could spend the whole match talking about the family connections on both sides.  YAY WRESTLING~!  A nice fakeout by Jey allows Jimmy to take out both Colon cousins with a huge plancha, but Primo & Epico turn the tide to isolate Jey for a while.  A whiffed corner dropkick leaves Primo hung up in the corner...so Epico distracts the ref so he doesn't see the tag to Jimmy.  Jey finally gets more separation with a backdrop on Epico and Jimmy gets the tag for real!  The house is on fire...Primo takes a Buh-Buh Bomb and Umaga Smash from Jimmy, then a Samoan Drop.  Epico breaks up the pin but gets superkicked to the floor by Jey.  Jimmy superkicks Primo while he's at it...tag to Jey for the Headshrinker Splash and pin!  THE LIGHTS GO OUT IN ORLANDO...The Ascension members appear on the Titantron to declare that their feud with the Usos MUST CONTINUE.

Big E Langston vs. Donny Camacho & Aiden English:  Camacho was allowed to choose a partner for this one...guess he figured any partner would do.  Time to CHALK UP~!  English starts with Langston...which goes about as you'd expect.  Vader Smash levels English...and Camacho has zero interest in tagging into the match.  He piefaces Big E and then takes a walk...so much for that team.  Big Ending for three...but that's not good enough so he hits the finisher again and logs his five-count.  The fans humbly request One More Time...and it is delivered as advertised(along with the five-count).

Percy Watson vs. Kassius Ohno:  Regal says he regrets some of his dastardly history and he's concerned that Ohno may be going down the same path...hmm.  Fine matchup, at any rate...Ohno escapes the Percycution setup and gets the win after the Ohno Blade(fka Death Blow).  Ohno glares in Regal's direction after the match, then sends a few choice words in his direction on the way out.

Jim Ross interviews NXT Champion Seth Rollins...he retained his title against Jinder Mahal last week, so what's next for him?  He is a fighting champion and he's not hard to find...out of nowhere, Corey Graves hits the ring and clips Rollins' knee!  He grabs him in the Thirteenth Step(Fuller Leglock) until referees arrive to restore order...the champ's in bad shape after that attack.  Graves commandeers J.R.'s microphone for his own promo time...he wants da belt and he gives it a look before leaving the ring.

John Cena lets us know that next week's show will be a year-in-review edition...good to know.

World Champion The Big Show vs. Bo Dallas(non-title):  J.R. joins Regal at the broadcast table.  Two weeks ago, Bo issued an open challenge and this would be a fine example of being careful what you wish for.  I don't see this being too competitive but Bo's not gonna back down.  Dallas escapes a slam attempt to get a sleeper...Regal shows some bias as he's been victimized by Show a few times lately.  Show escapes the hold with a sideslam but misses an elbowdrop...Bo tries to slug it out with Show, then gets off a few dropkicks.  He escapes the chokeslam but Show easily blocks a bulldog attempt...PUNCH and it's over.

TNA Impact

-Commentators:  Mike Tenay, Todd Keneley, & Taz.
-Brother Devon(w/ Aces & Eights) d. Kurt Angle(w/ Samoa Joe, Wes Brisco, & Garett Bischoff) to retain the T.V. Title.  The referee sent all of the ringside parties to the backstage area, but the Aces came back out when Angle got Devon in the anklelock.  That brought Joe, Wes, and Garett back out...in the chaos, Armbreaker hit Angle from behind with a lead pipe and Devon got the pin.
-Matt Morgan & Joey Ryan d. X-Division Champion Rob Van Dam & Kenny King when Ryan pinned Van Dam after Morgan's Carbon Footprint.
-Tara Varon(w/ Jesse Godderz) d. Mickie James after a modified spinebuster to retain the Women's Title.
-Jeff Hardy d. Austin Aries to retain the Heavyweight Title.  The referee was knocked down, giving Aries the opportunity to hit a low blow and then the brainbuster.  However, Bobby Roode stopped a second ref from making the pin count and then hit Aries with a spinebuster.  Hardy and the original ref didn't see Roode's interference...Hardy hit the Twist Of Fate and swanton bomb to get the win and retain the title.
