Knockouts Action

Madison Rayne spears Jade out to the floor and then takes The Dollhouse out with a dive. Jade unloads some quick kicks and then a clothesline. Jade takes control right back with a dropkick, but Madison hits a step-up enziguiri and a body slam for a two count. The Dollhouse distracts, which allows Jade to get a rollup for two count. Jade finishes her off with a package piledriver for the win. The Dollhouse attacks Madison after the match, only for Gail Kim comes out to make the save.

I saw a lot from Jade tonight that I have not seen in a long time. She looked impressive in the ring and had a good dance partner with Madison Rayne. I love how the pace was fast from the very beginning. Hit your splash moves, work on the technique in the middle of the match and provide an open-ended finish. I like Gail Kim coming to her rescue, making sure she is not forgotten when not competing in the ring. Overall, a good night continuing to push The Dollhouse and continuing to develop storylines for more than just one Knockout.

An excellent main event between Kurt Angle and Drew Galloway on Impact Wrestling tonight. From the very beginning, you knew you were going to get a technically sound match with some great developments. Galloway is such a timely wrestler who does not look really athletic, but he delivers with some great offense. Kurt Angle will always be Kurt Angle. I loved see Angle going up top for a crossbody, mixing in the aerial assault with his sound submissions. You needed Galloway to get a sound victory over Angle and he made him tap out. THAT tells me that TNA might have another big face superstar ready to go. When you get two matches with Kurt Angle in his “Farewell Tour,” you know you have something special.
