Ten Man Gauntlet Match
(Winner Earns Title Shot At Sacrifice)
Gunner rushes James Storm and hits him a few times, then they slug it out until Bobby Roode makes his way to the ring. Roode sends Gunner into the corner and Storm helps attack him, then they each clothesline Gunner before Roode kneedrops him. Bully Ray is out next and he double clotheslines Storm and Roode, then Ethan Carter III runs out and stomps him in the corner. Ethan headbutts Gunner then goes after Bully, but Bully chops the hell out of him before he chops Storm in the corner. Roode ducks a chop and punches Bully in the corner, then Lashley and Abyss come out and they join in the fight before trying to eliminate each other.
We get back from a break to see Eric Young and Willow enter the match, and Rockstar Spud wheels himself and distracts Willow, with Ethan snapping Willow's head off the ropes as a result. Spud pulls Willow down and 'miraculously' runs away, then Sanada gets thrown outside before Lashley scoop slams Ethan and Roode backdrops Lashley outside. Bully hits Roode from behind and kicks him in the face to eliminate him, then Roode gets pissed and pulls Bully over the ropes, with Ethan helping send him outside. Ethan hits Gunner but Gunner fires right back and goes for the Gun Rack, only to have Storm superkick him and send him outside. Ethan calls for the remaining men to toss Eric out, but Eric hits each of them and tries to mount a comeback.
Eric gets thrown outside but skins the cat and headscissors Ethan out of the match, then he gets back in and takes a splash by Abyss. Eric comes back with an elbow drop, then Storm hits him from behind and connects with a hangman's DDT before measuring for a superkick. Eric ducks and throws him outside, and Storm skins the cat but Eric dropkicks him and we are down to Abyss and Eric. Abyss hits Shock Treatment and and chokes him, shoving him over the ropes but Eric hangs on and shoulder blocks him. Eric counters a whip (Ric Flair style over the turnbuckles) and runs up top with a missile dropkick, then he clotheslines Abyss outside to win.
Winner – Eric Young
BP: This is TNA's definition of a gauntlet, but it's really just a battle royal. It didn't get good until we got down to the final three. Everything else was pretty much what you would expext from this type of match. I know what you are thinking, but I'm on board with rebuilding EY's character. I was a fan of World Elite / The Band EY, so this could be a good build for him AND Magnus if done right.
