411’s TNA Global Impact Report 6.05.06

Hey everyone, as some of you may know, I have been recapping Velocity for a little over a month now. With Velocity ending this weekend, I now get to cover Global Impact!

We begin with a promo for the TNA Championship match at Slammiversary.

Jeremy Borash, alongside Christy Hemme, welcomes us to the 5th week of Global Impact. They talk about the final King of the Mountain match, where the winner will be placed in the Championship match at Slammiversary. That match takes place this Thursday on Impact, and will be between Sting and Scott Steiner.

They show footage of Chris Sabin challenging Kevin Nash from last week’s Impact. They then air exclusive Global Impact footage of Kevin Nash after Chris Sabin’s challenge. Nash says that if he had his knee brace on he would have drilled him.

Team Canada (Petey Williams & Eric Young) vs. Chris Sabin & Sonjay Dutt
Williams and Sabin start off with a lockup, which is reversed into a bearhug by Williams. Sabin rolls out of an arm lock and gives Williams an armdrag. Sabin hits a drop toe hold and tags in Dutt. Dutt hits a huracanrana, which is good for two. Young tags in, but Dutt hits a drop toe hold and then a standing moonsault. Dutt nails an elbow to head, whips Young into the ropes, and hits an elbow. Dutt charges off the ropes and hits another elbow, this time for a two count. Young reverses Dutt and whips him into the ropes, but Dutt counters by jumping over the ropes and onto the apron. Dutt gives a dropkick to Williams, but Young knocks Dutt off the apron afterwards.

We then have quick break with a promo for the Best of Samoa Joe DVD that comes out today (June 6th).

We’re back, and Williams is now in. He slams Dutt’s head against the turnbuckle, and picks him up, but Dutt fights back. Williams knocks him back down to the canvas, and then sets Dutt upside down in the corner and starts singing the Canadian National Anthem. Williams picks him up, gives him a scoop slam, and then tags in Young. Eric gets onto top rope and hits an elbow for two. Sabin made the save, but ends up distracting the referee, which allows Williams to run in and apply a headlock on Dutt. Dutt fights out, but runs into an elbow by Williams, who then hits a bridging suplex for two. Youn tags back in and whips Dutt into the corner, but Dutt goes onto the apron and hits a missle dropkick off the ropes. Sabin finally tags in, cleans house, and hits a school boy for two. Young gets knocked down in the corner, and Sabin hits a drop toe hold onto Williams, which sends Petey’s head right into Young’s crotch. Sabin nails a sitout powerbomb onto Williams, but Young makes the save. Young, with the help of Williams, is able to nail a Death Valley Driver for a two count. Williams goes for the Canadian Destroyer, but Sabin reverses him. Williams ducks a clothesline, but Sabin knocks down Young who was on the apron. Williams hits a school boy with his feet on the ropes, but Sabin kicks out after two. Young tags back in and beats down Sabin in the corner. Behind the referee’s back, Williams puts some white powder on his hands. Dutt runs in and kicks Petey’s hands, which sends the powder into Petey’s eyes. Williams doesn’t have a clue where he is, and gives Young the Canadian Destroyer, thinking he was Sabin. Williams makes the cover, and Dutt counts to three. Williams celebrates with Sabin, but Sabin picks him up and gives him the Cradle Shot for the victory at roughly 9:00.

Winner: Chris Sabin & Sonjay Dutt

They show highlights from Impact of when America’s Most Wanted attacked The Naturals, with Shane Douglas walking out. They air exclusive footage of the Naturals after their attack; the two are irate.
