TNA World Title:

-AJ Styles (c) vs. Sting

AJ Styles is doing a great job of carrying Sting in this match. Lots of really good actual wrestling action, as opposed to over-booking spots to cover up lack of wrestling ability. After a series of reverals, Sting hits the Scorpion Death Drop. AJ kicks out of the pin attempt. Sting hits the Stinger splash on AJ. Loud “this is wrestling” chant breaks out from the crowd. Sting slaps on the Scorpion Deathlock but AJ eventually fights his way out of it. AJ tries chopping Sting to death but Sting gets pissed and “Hulk’s up.” Sting clotheslines AJ down and tries another pin attempt, but again only gets two. AJ is on the apron and hits the Pele kick on Sting who was in the ring. AJ leapfrogs into a splash on Sting for the three count and victory to retain the TNA World title.

Winner and STILL TNA World champion: AJ Styles

After The Match: Sting’s Speech

AJ and Sting shake hands. Sting goes to leave but AJ gets a microphone. He tells Sting to get back in the ring. The microphone is screwing up so AJ throws it down and gets another one. That microphone doesn’t work any better. A third microphone and now AJ tells Sting that he’s entertained fans for years and we’re in his home state of California. He tells him this ring is his spotlight. Loud “Sting, Sting, Sting” chant as Sting makes his way back to the ring. “Please don’t go” chant breaks out from the crowd. Sting stands alone in the ring now as another “Sting, Sting, Sting” chant breaks out. He gets on the microphone and says thank you. He says he didn’t expect to be here now because this moment is not about him – it’s about their World champion. He says if he’s going to lose, he’s glad it was to somebody like AJ Styles. He says if he can lose, he’s real glad to lose at home. (That makes a lot of sense). “You still got it” chant breaks out from the crowd. Sting says since he has this platform right now he should cover the topic on everyone’s mind. “One more year” chant breaks out from the crowd and Sting smiles. Sting says he’s not pulling a Brett Favre on us. He says he wasn’t planning on making a big announcement and he can’t promise anything but the way the fans reacted all weekend and right now, it makes him want to stay forever.
