Third Match: Group X-Division’s Mandrews vs. Manik in a TNA World Title Series
Manik controls Mandrews on the mat, and every time Mandrews tries to wrestle his way out from under Manik, Manik ties him right back up. Mandrews gets a double armbar stack for two count before finally grounding Manik with an armbar. Manik is quickly out of that and ties Mandrews up with a leglock before rolling him into a bow and arrow. Manik continues dominating Mandrews on the mat until Mandrews gets away and hits a sweet swinging DDT that sends Manik to the floor.
Mandrews tries going to the top, but Manik gets out of his range, so Mandrews comes across the ring, victory rolls Manik, and hits a double stomp. He goes for a standing moonsault, but takes too long playing to the crowd and Manik gets the knees up. Mandrews hits a northern lights suplex and hits a twisting standing moonsault, then he goes to the top, takes too long playing to the crowd, and a shooting star press lands right on Manik’s knees. Manik hits the Detonation Kick to pickup the victory.
Winner: Manik + 3 Points
