A QTV segment recapping their recent successes. Harley Cameron still thinks she and Anthony Bowens will make a great couple, and Johnny TV kicked a perfectly good MP3 player into the trash to show how much he hates the Acclaimed’s music. He couldn’t just delete the tracks? 

Blind Eliminator Tag Team Tournament Quarterfinals
Jeff Jarrett & Matt Hardy vs. Sammy Guevara & Daniel Garcia

Guevara came to the ring slapping hands with the crowd like a babyface. The winners of this match will face the Orange Cassidy & Darby Allin pairing on Dynamite Wednesday.

Hardy and Garcia started the match with a dance vs. “Delete!” off. There was a dueling chant for Karen Jarrett. Some of the fans loved her, and some did not.

Renee Paquette interviewed Kris Statlander, who has already defended her TBS title six times. Statlander is “the defeater of the undefeated,” which she and Paquette believe would make a really good t-shirt.

Blind Eliminator Tag Team Tournament Quarterfinals
Brian Cage & Big Bill vs. Trent Beretta & Matt Sydal

The winners here will face MJF and Adam Cole on Dynamite Wednesday, and I hope everyone continues to learn about friendship from Max and Cole.

Beretta sent Big Bill to the floor with a leverage move over the ropes. Beretta tried to follow him out with a dive, but Bill caught him and chokeslammed him onto the ring apron. Bill slammed him backfirst into the ringpost, then tossed him to the floor. Bill played up his cocky heel persona and it was great.

Sydal took Cage down with a series of kicks. Cage hit a kick of his own and went for the Drill Claw, but Sydal countered it into a hurricanrana for a near fall.

Sydal cut off Bill when he tried to interfere, and Beretta ran to hold Bill open for a kneedrop off the top from Sydal. Beretta followed up with a sliding kneedrop. Then Cage floored them both with a double lariat.

The fight went to the floor, and Cage tossed Sydal into the crowd. Beretta hit Cage with a spear, and Sydal came off the barricade with a meteora on Big Bill.

Back in the ring, Beretta and Sydal came off the top rope on Bill and Cage, but Bill hit Beretta with a black hole slam and Cage hit Sydal with a jackhammer. But the double pin only got two. Cage and Bill accidentally clotheslined each other, and Beretta hit Bill with a half-and-half. Sydal came off the top with a meteora, but Cage caught him and tossed him into the turnbuckles. Cage set up Sydal for a powerbomb off the top, but Beretta popped up and German suplexed Page. Beretta then followed up with a piledriver, and Sydal came off the top with a meteora on Cage, but it only got a two count.

Sydal and Beretta gave Bill a double superkick, but Bill shrugged it off and gave them a double clothesline. Cage and Bill fished off Sydal with an awesome double-team move: Cage held up Sydal for a powerbomb, and Bill killed him with a stiff lariat to get the pinfall. 

Winner: Brian Cage & Big Bill via Pinfall.

Bill and Cage will now face MJF & Adam Cole in the semi-finals of the Blind Eliminator Tournament. 

This was a great main event.
