This is a smaller building than Mooresville, but looks fuller because of it.

They ask if anyone wants to sing the National Anthem, and Team Canada is out to stop that. Roode says there will be no National Anthem tonight, because tonight the fans will show respect to the greatest company in the world and salute the Canadian National Anthem. The Naturals put an end to that.

Solid opener here. Nothing wrong with it really, just a run of the mill tag encounter. **½

Traci calls Hermie Sadler into the ring. She says this is a hellhole and there is a chance some fat pig may get to slap her luscious superstar ass. There is only one man that gets to slap her ass. Hermie says she may get respect, if she wasn’t a bimbo. Hermie says she has 2-choices. She can do it, or she is fired.

Bentley tells Killings his music sucks. All of these North Carolina retards sucks, just like you. If the morons keep chanting “What’s up” he and Traci will leave and go to Orlando early. They chant and he tries to leave. Killings says Bentley doesn’t suck, he swallows. Traci says that is her job! Tremendous.

Solid match, but it drug a bit and wasn’t all that exciting. Nothing really wrong, just nothing special. **

Kip on the mic now. Some unforeseen circumstances (BG didn’t want to job) prevented BG from being here tonight. He says he will whoop their ass by himself.

They start to beat down Kip, but Rhino charges the ring and evens things out! Rhino and Kip clean house and Rhino has the mic. Since he didn’t have a match and Kip needs a partner, they should team up and kick some ass! Kip is down with that and says if they aren’t down with that, they have two words for ya… the standard message appears: “Kip would like to share 2-words with you, but there is no “E” in TNA.” That is STILL awesome!

Winners: AMW @ 12:09 via pin ***¼

Same good match as the previous DVD with the same finish, but a good match is still a good match.

Fans bought raffle tickets, if they win, they get to spank the loser.

Traci on the mic. The fans are lucky, because not only do they get to spank Amber when she loses, but they get to see the best part of TNA…her T&A. She then refuses to take her shirt off and says if they want TNA, watch SPIKE TV on Thursdays!

Hermie Sadler picks the ticket, and Traci refuses to wrestle because, “SHE IS A WRESTLER!” Traci keeps yelling at the winner and calling him a PERVERT!

Loser Gets Spanked Match: Amber O’Neal vs. Traci Brooks

Traci attacks before the bell and chokes out O’Neal. Off the ropes, and O’Neal rips off Traci’s shirt and tosses it to the fans. Traci is not happy, but I am. Traci tries to leave, but the announcer says if she does, she loses and will be drug back and spanked. She breaks the count and then walks around the ring. O’Neal grabs her hair, but Traci pulls her out and slams her into the ring apron. O’Neal fights back and does the same. I think O’Neal has called her a bitch about 1-times already. Back into the ring they go, O’Neal covers for 2. Jawbreaker and then a clothesline by Traci for 2. Traci yells at the ref, and O’Neal gets a roll up for 2. Traci chokes out O’Neal on the ropes, pulls her back in and covers for 2. Clubbing shots by Traci and then slams her into the corner. Kicks by Traci and then she stands on her chest. Traci says she will put her crotch in her face, they all cheer and she charges for the broncobuster, stops and calls us all dirty perverts! O’Neal with chops, and then sends Traci to the corner. She does a crappy broncobuster, and then a Russian leg sweep for 2. Elbow by Traci, and then a 2nd rope X-factor for the win with the feet on the ropes.

Hermie Sadler saw that! He says the ref is blind and he orders the match to be restarted! DDT by O’Neal! 1…2…3!

Winner: Amber O’Neal @ 6:30 via pin *½

Hermie calls in the dude to spank Traci. Amber grabs Traci, bends her over her knee and the dude spanks her 5-times as Hermie tells him “HARDER~!” Damn voyeur. Dude hit her hard and Amber spanks her as well. Traci crawls to the back.

They played the crowd well and kept the crowd entertained. I appreciated the attempt at good wrestling, but it just fell short. As far as “entertainment goes” it was good stuff.

Canada vs. USA: Jeff Hardy vs. Eric Young

Jeff chases Young, who runs away and dives to the floor. Jeff crawls like a freak and Young tells to ref to make Jeff stop. Back into the ring, he climbs the ropes and gets boo’d. Damn stupid Hardy fans. Damn it, show Eric FN Young some love! Young attacks Jeff and delivers rights to him. He grabs Jeff by the leg and eats a mule kick. Irish whip by Jeff, another and a backdrop and he rolls to the floor. Young does some stretches and then shadow boxes. Back in and he pokes Jeff in the eyes and tosses him to the floor.

Young chokes out Jeff, off the ropes and a back elbow by Young and a cover for 2. Young chokes out Jeff again in the corner, and yells at Earl to say that, “I HAVE 5!” Rights by Jeff, off the ropes now and a knee by Young in the gut for a cover for 2. Slam by Young, he goes up top…CANADIAN SWANTON CONNECTS! He celebrates, covers and gets 2. He tosses Jeff to the floor and hopes for a count out, but Jeff is back in. He tosses him back over the top and tries for a count out again. Jeff back in and gets tossed again! I LOVE ERIC YOUNG! Hardy comes to the apron and tosses Young to the floor. Baseball slide and then a plancha by Jeff! He slams Young into the railing and then rolls him back in. Clothesline by Jeff. Off the ropes again and a flying forearm. Flatliner by Jeff gets 2. Jeff off the ropes…superkick by Young gets 2! Irish whip and Young does the Flair corner flip, runs the apron and up top…cross body, Jeff rolls through and gets 2! Twist of fate by Jeff! Up top…swanton bomb. 1…2…3!

Winner: Jeff Hardy @ 9:44 via pin **½

For Jeff Hardy this was a good match. He has been so miss in the ring for a while, when it isn’t a match with gimmicks, this was a nice change. Eric Young was just awesome and helped to make this a really fun main event.

The 411: Solid wrestling up and down the card. Nothing spectacular, but nothing bad. If you are a TNA fan, you’ll really enjoy this show overall. The main complaint I have is that the show was so short compared to the other one, 30-minutes shorter in fact. Since this is a $15 DVD ($10 if you buy it with the Mooresville show) that knocks it down a tad. Mild recommendation for this one.
Final Score:  5.5   [ Not So Good ]
