The brutal, chaotic and emotional showdown saw the use of fluorescent light tubes (a first in APWA), bottles, tables, chairs, and other weaponry that resulted in absolute mayhem and the spilling of family blood. During the final minutes, Vic Scar made an impromptu appearance in the match, attempting to help new ally Terri Middoux by laying out Zizou, but Ananzi intervened and delivered a bad habit to both Scar and Terri to give Zizou the win. A furious Terri Middoux is blaming Ananzi for his loss and is swearing revenge. Last year, Terri temporarily lulled Ananzi out of retirement at the big Rhino Rally interpromotional show in October a brawl that ended with Ananzi in a bloodied mess due to repeated blows from Terri Middoux's spike. It was a confrontation that gave Ananzi that itch to get back in the ring. A return by the South African wrestling ace has been promised for this year. If he should return to APWA competition, will Ananzi's first opponent be The French Monster Terri Middoux? Such a huge matchup would be worthy of main eventing any APWA event! Zizou Middoux will return to Power Trip Wrestling on February 10 to face one of United Kingdom's finest wrestlers in Jonny Storm. The PTW World Heavyweight Title will be on the line. For more information on that event, click here: http://www.facebook.com/events/303588513018859/ . APWA Heavyweight Champion El Mascarado Mexicano retained his title in a very hardfought battle against top contender Vic Scar and rising contender Afrika. The rebellious Vic Scar is on a fast track to glory and showed on Saturday that he has champion potential, overpowering and nearly overwhelming the injured Mascarado. His dangerous reverse suplex almost put the Mexican dynamo to sleep, but Mascarado prevailed with fighting spirit and chargedup, highflying excellence. This is, to date, Mascarado's first successful title defense. It is still unknown as to who laid out El Mascarado in last week's shocking assault that was recorded on tape, however the primary suspect remains Johnny Iceman Sabin, despite his insistence that the mystery assailant wasn't him. Sabin showed up at the Father VS Son event, even though he wasn't scheduled to wrestle. Sabin has made it wellknown that he intends to destroy APWA. To what lengths will The Iceman go to ensure the destruction of an entire promotion? What are his plans? Will we ever know who attacked El Mascarado Mexicano? The reigning APWA Tag Team Champions Vaatjie en Japie (Donovan Loudmouth and Blizzard) made their first successful title defence against a formidable team from SAPW, South African legend Scorpion Kruger and Cowboy. The interpromotional war ended controversially: Kruger and Cowboy seemingly became the new APWA Tag Team Champions before Ananzi reversed the decision. Could this be the start of a more extensive skirmish between APWA and SAPW? Vaatjie en Japie are offering help to Terri Middoux to resist the collective force of Zizou Middoux, Ananzi and others following the events at Father VS Son, but at a price. Will Terri take up their offer? Loudmouth and Blizzard are selling their protection services to anyone with a grudge in the locker room. Who will next challenge the APWA Tag Team Champions? The emerging fan favourite JDX and cocky newcomer Jay Austin are in the midst of a competitive rivalry that saw another athletic battle take place between the 19yearold young lions this past Saturday. After JDX won their previous match, Jay Austin arose the victor this time. Their series now stands at 11. Both hungry warriors are vying for a higher position in the APWA contender rankings, eyes set on El Mascarado Mexicano's Heavyweight Title. Who will win the squared circle race? Despite his encumbering size advantage and crushing army fighting technique, the grizzled Renegade lost another bout to the mixed martial artsinfluenced former cagefighter KO. KO used his own knockdowndragout style to rattle his large opponent prior to applying his new, deadly submission finisher that he has been teasing as of late. The Ultimate Soldier Renegade, who debuted in APWA less than a year ago, is promising a heavier arsenal of moves and smarter strategy in a future rematch with KO. KO had this to say afterwards, They call me KO because everyone gets knocked the f* out, but I've added a whole new dimension to my game. As you just saw, I made Renegade tap out. When you throw down with KO, you're left with two choices: thrown down harder or get moered to kingdom come. No one fights harder than I do. Everyone back there knows it. It's my time now. More shows to be announced soon, including news on 4th Anniversary: Wrestle Madness, Rumble Revolution IV and the King of Africa 2012 tournament.

Backstage: John Laurinaitis is training for his match and David Otunga comes in and delivers a letter telling Laurinaitis he's not going to like what he reads. Commercial CM Punk vs John Laurinaitis Before the match begins, John Laurinaitis says he received a fax from the Board Of Directors and has David Otunga read the letter.  Otunga reads the letter which says the board has become concerned with the questionable judgment Laurinaitis has exhibited while running the day to day operations of Monday Night Raw.  Especially troubling is his declaration from last week that he intends to abuse his authority as special guest referee by intentionally favouring Dolph Ziggler in his match against WWE Champion CM Punk at the Royal Rumble event.  The letter went on to state that the board has decided that Laurinaitis’ status as interim General Manager of Monday Night Raw will be officially under review.  Next week on Raw, Laurinaitis will receive a formal job evaluation to determine whether he will continue as interim General Manager or whether he will be terminated.  And the job evaluation will be conducted by WWE COO Triple H.  Punk says that means if Laurinaitis screws him at the Royal Rumble he’s out of a job, but that also means there’s nothing stopping Punk from knocking Laurinaitis’ teeth out of his face.  Laurinaitis then tries to apologize.  Laurinaitis says Foley’s in the Royal Rumble and tells Punk he was always going to call the title match right down the middle.  He only said what he said because Punk made fun of him.  He was mad and Punk knows what that’s like.  Punk tells Laurinaitis he’s like the spoiled little girl who always gets what she wants then on Christmas morning finds that Santa brought her a big piece of coal and says he hopes Triple H fires Laurinaitis next week.  Laurinaitis said that’s not going to happen he’s been with the WWE for 10 years and tonight’s match is not going to happen and says he has an adequate substitute in David Otunga.  Otunga then attacks Punk.  Otunga lays out Punk then gets up but runs into the Anaconda Vice as Punk locks it in.  Otunga taps and Punk releases it as he glares up at Laurinaitis.  Otunga tries to attack again but Punk delivers his series of kicks and turns back to Laurinaitis who has his hand extended.  Punk shakes his hand, pulls him in and hits Laurinaitis with the GTS.  From behind, Ziggler hits the ZigZag as he stands over a fallen Punk.

Austin Aries often tries to steal the win as Jesse Sorrensen and Zema Ion exchange most of the holds and high risk manuvers. Kash and Aries often collide as well but Zema Ion befalls Aries at ringside onto Kash before going to the top rope and spiralling down onto his opponents. Jesse Sorrensen goes to the other corner and he flies off too before getting Aries back in the ring and getting Two on the cover. The contest is frantic and we watch as Kid Kash corners Ion to superplex him, but Aries intervenes and soon Kash is eliminated on the back end of a 450 by Zema Ion. Austin Aries performs a 450 of his own on Sorrensen, but Sorrensen kicks out. Zema Ion is eliminated by Jesse Sorrensen, thanks to a small package, but Ion stays to be a neaussence and he befalls Sorrensen from the top rope so Austin Aries picks up the victory thanks to a middle rope Avalanche Brainbuster to retain the Title. Winner and Still XDivision Champion: Austin Aries. Backstage Jeremy Borash tries talking some sense into Devon's 16yearold boys. 'The Pope' D'Angelo Dinero comes onto the scene and he calls Devon washedup before rubbing it in his face that Terrence and Terrell now roll with Pope. Pope says that he will defeat Devon tonight, he finishes Daddy has spoken and JB shakes his head in disaproval as Pope walks off with Devons kids. We're shown a video package that tells the story of how The Pope wound his way into Devon's family. All along Devon had told Pope to stay away from his children, but it seems that Pope's innitial tagging with Devon was a rouse to worm his way into storing Terrence and Terrell into his congregation. Pope now calls himself a father figure and Devon wants his kids back. Will Devon prevail or will Terrence and Terrell's alegience with Dinero prove too much to handle? We find out next at Genesis! 'The Pope' D'Angelo Dinero w/ Terrence & Terrell vs. Devon The contest begins with Devon very much in control as he vents his frustration upon the man that caused the split in his family. Devon dominates Dinero in and out of the ring, but as he goes high risk Pope 'accidently' send the referee toward the ropes and that knocks Devon off balance. Dinero takes control from here and the fans boo him as he clotheslines Devon along the apron and then baseball slides into Devon's back to have him crash on the floor at ringside. Pope uses the railling to choke Devon before coming off the apron to nail a double axe handle. Pope sends Dinero back in the ring and gets Two on the cover. Dinero remains in control and soon risks a Disqualification as he invites Terrence and Terrell into the ring. He tells them to pick appart their father, but in Pope's dominance of the match, Terrence and Terrell finally have a reality check and they don't attack their Dad. This sends Pope nuts as he decks both of Devon's kids to ringside and the crowd boo as he belittles their existence. Devon meanwhile gets up full of energy and he lays into Pope full speed. Devon drops Pope with shoulder barges, but Dinero's still pretty fresh and he manages to set up for a DDE in the corner. Devon evades contact however and he is able to administer a Saving Grace delayed reverse DDT and that gets him a wellearned Three. Winner: Devon. The comms tell that Terrence and Terrell had finally seen the light that the man that raised them was getting really hurt and that's what turned this match around. Terrence and Terrel embrace their Dad after the match and the crowd cheer as Devon raises their hands. We're sent backstage where JB's set to talk to Sting, but Velvet Sky is on the scene and she pleads her case for Sting to name her the Executive VP of the Knockouts Division. Every time Sting tries to speak, Velvet interrupts and exudes idea after idea for the TNA Knockouts. Velvet whispers an idea in Sting's ear and Sting says that if Velvet can pull it off then he's all for it. Velvet is excited as she says that tonight will be dubbed 'The Velvet Touch'. It's unclear whether Velvet has any future job as the Knockouts VP, but she does have the goahead for her plans tonight. Velvet excitedly leaves the scene and Sting tells JB that he's backing Jeff Hardy against the arrogant and selfish Bobby Roode. Gunner w/ Ric Flair vs. Rob Van Dam The two lock it up and Gunner proves to be an immovable object in RVD's way. Van Dam uses his speed and his kicks to take Gunner down into a series of covers, but Gunner always kicks out after One and RVD gets up, thumbtaunts and soon Gunner goes to ringside to get some words of wisdom from the Nature Boy Ric Flair. This leads to Gunner taking control of the contest back in the ring and we watch as he uses his superior strength to dominate RVD around the squared circle and then at ringside. Gunner exposes the concrete floor at ringside by pulling up the protective mat, but the referee tells him off and RVD uses this time to recouperate and get back in the match. Van Dam sends Gunner back in the ring and soon tries to go high risk. Gunner attempts to cut him off, but Van Dam throws him back into the ring and flies off for a cross body and Twocount. Van Dam goes far corner and waits for Gunner to get up before nailling a huge flying kick. The contest goes on with Van Dam fully in charge, but Ric Flair moves Gunner out the way as RVD attacks and this leads to the ref telling Flair off. Gunner meanwhile DDT's RVD on the exposed floor at ringside and he gets Van Dam back in the ring for a Threecount. Winner: Gunner. Security and trainers come to the ring along with EMT's to check on Van Dam. we're shown replays of the impact of the DDT and RVD is soon taken away on a stretcher.

I'm RVD and I love the KWF. Read the very best in literary pro wrestling every week right HERE at KWF Blogs. It's cool, very cool. Rob Van Dam. Backstage Jeff Hardy tells JB that tonight he plans to give back to the Creatures of the Night. He says he's come a long way, but it wouldn't have been worth it if not for the fans. He says he can't wait to face Roode and take the TNA World Title home tonight. A video package builds up to the upcoming Knockouts Title match between Mickie James and Gail Kim. James and Kim have unresolved issues from Final Resolution and tonight we may get a fair result as 'Velvet's Touch' is a cage at ringside to store Madison Rayne during the match. With Rayne locked up, this should be an even, enthralling Knockouts Title bout. Mickie James vs. Gail Kim (c) Knockouts Title match Before the bell rings Velvet Sky comes to ringside to open the cage door (a similar cage to a King Of The Mountain cage, but the bars are pink and white). An added touch to the small cage is that it's raised and Madison Rayne's 20 feet off the arena floor. All the hooplaa from Rayne has Mickie James smiling, but as the ref rings the bell Gail Kim is fully focussed and she goes full speed at James. Mickie comes back though and counters Kim with two quick early near falls. Kim takes exception and evades a headscissors to splat James on her face from off the ropes. Kim stays in control as we see Velvet Sky watch the match from the foot of the ramp. She cheers on Mickie as James gets back into the match, but Kim locks on the Octupus! Mickie quickly corners Gail hard against the turnbuckles and Kim is forced loose. She exits the ring and exchanges words with Velvet and this leads to a headscissors from Mickie onto Gail at ringside. The contest goes back in the ring where we see Madison Rayne throw brass knucks in the way of Gail Kim. The referee sees the knucks on the canvas and he picks them up to send them to the timekeepers corner. Madison sends another pair into the ring and Mickie James picks them up to knock out Gail Kim but the ref sees and Mickie is Disqualified. Winner by way of Disqualification, and still Knockouts Champion: Gail Kim. Mickie was caught red handed and Gail retains as Madison looks on in concern. Mickie leaves with Velvet up the ramp. Backstage JB interviews Bully Ray and Ray tells him that tonight he's going to defeat Abyss and make sure he's back in Immortal to be their b*tch again. We're shown a video package that documents how Abyss got fed up of the abuse he recieved in Immortal. Abyss' independence has not been easy to come by and tonight Bully Ray wants to make sure Immortal have their Monster back. Bully Ray vs. Abyss Monster's Ball match It's anything goes, no Disqualifications and weapons are encouraged as we get set for what should be a blood bath. Bully tries to get into Abyss' head by twice exiting the ring and delyaing any physical contact in the match. Mike Tenay on commentary says that Bully may well be having second thoughts to being in this match, but Taz says that Bully's smarter than he looks and he's just playing head games with the Monster. Both men pick up steel chairs and swing for one another in the ring. Bully gets the upper hand, smashing Abyss over his back, but Abyss comes back to get up and chokeslam Bully Ray. Ray is soon up though and he tries using his thick metal chain against his opponent, but Abyss befalls Bully and exits the ring to throw a plethora of foreign objects into the squared circle. This gives Bully time to recouperate though and he uses a trash can over the face of Abyss, but the Monster just stands there. Amazing from Abyss, but Bully is relentless in continuously going at Abyss hereafter. However, while Bully taunts toward the fans, Abyss exits the ring and reaches under the apron to bring out his old friend Janice! The infamous 2x4 hammered with nine inch nails is back and Janice wants to play with Bully Ray, but Ray looks to head to the back. Abyss follows, but as the two competitors come back down to ringside, Bully's in charge and Janice is not in play. Abyss is sent shoulderfirst into a barbed wire board and Bully Ray is ruthless in smashing the board over Abyss' head. Abyss' left arm is bleeding but he gets back in the match by smashing Bully's face over the steel stairs. Abyss sends Bully into the ring and sets to grab a few more instruments from under the ring apron. Abyss pulls out a cheese grater and two black velvet bags. He gets in the ring and uses the grater on Bully Ray's yambag region! The crowd can't believe it as Bullys Bully's get grated! Abyss then pours out thumbtacks from one of the black velvet bags, but Bully comes back with a pelting low blow on the Monster. Bully next brings a Table into the ring and tries to throw Abyss through it, but the Monster counters and chokeslams Bully through the wood! Abyss covers, but only gets Two. Abyss exits the ring to bring in two barbwire boards into the ring and the time that he takes backfires because Bully sideslams Abyss on one board, then sandwiches him with the other board and then senton backsplashes off the middle turnbuckle to crash into a barbsandwiched Abyss! What carnage, what chaos, but Abyss kicks out! Good God, Abyss kicks out and comes back to slam Bully down into the thumbtacks and he gets One! Two! wow and Bully Ray kicks out! Holy hell! Bully Ray comes back in the match to grab a kendo stick and he lays into Abyss like never before. Over and over again he smashes the Monster, but as the bamboo splits on impact of the bloodied Monster, Abyss gets up! he gets up to BlackHole Slam an oncoming Bully right onto a barbwire board and that gets the One! Two! Three! Winner: The Monster Abyss. How Abyss walks away from this match on his own accord is a miracle in itself. The barbaric contest has Bully Ray left in a barbwired heap in the ring and the comms review numerous replays of perhaps the best Monster's Ball match ever. Abyss does not have to rejoin Immortal. What a match. Backstage the TNA World Tag Team Champions, Matt Morgan and Crimson tell us how great they are through JB. Crimson says that he destroys lives for a living and Morgan says that he's the best bigman in the business. Both men are confident of winning here tonight. Will they be able to defend successfully against WildCard Tag Tournament winners Samoa Joe and Magnus? We find out next, Live here at Genesis! Samoa Joe & Magnus vs. Crimson & Matt Morgan (c) TNA World Tag Team Championships These two big physical teams are ready to turn it loose. Neither man in either team particularly liked one another when first forming a team, but they've both since proved exactly what they can do on the same page. For Morgan and Crimson it has led to confidence and selfassurance, but Joe and Magnus may prove to be their toughest opponents to date. Joe begins the match well, matching Matt Morgan through every move. Magnus and Crimson tag in and Crimson explodes with a series of knees before a swinging neckbreaker and Two on the count. Morgan tags in and tosses his elbow pads aside to administer his pistonlike bionic elbows in the corner on Magnus. This leads to a cover and Two by Morgan, but as Crimson tags back in so does Joe and now Joe and Magnus take conrtol of the match. Magnus and Joe work well to ground and pound Crimson and a legal Magnus gets Two on a count after a flying elbow. Joe and Magnus cut off the ring, showing some excellent tag team work as they work with one another to wear down Crimson. As Joe and Magnus continue to tag frequently, we go split screen to show what's going on backstage and we're shown Bully Ray attacking Abyss. Bully Ray takes it to Abyss and they fight to the outside of the arena. Meanwhile back Live in the ring Matt Morgan has tagged in after Crimson turned the match around with a spear. Morgan adminsiters a Hellavator to Magnus, but Joe breaks the cover at the very last second. We watch as Joe decks Crimson to ringside who lands awkwardly. Joe and Magnus then work together to take down Morgan, but Crimson breaks the count on the back end of a doubleteam. The contest continues with the fans on the edge of their seats and we watch as Crimson sends Joe into the steel steps at ringside. Magnus goes on to trade blows with Matt Morgan and Crimson is quickly on the scene to doubleteam Magnus hard to the mat and the Tag Champs retain. Winners and Still TNA World Tag Team Champions: Matt Morgan and Crimson. Morgan and Crimson celebrate, but Joe and Magnus walk off up the ramp with expressions that tell that they will be back. An impressive showing from both sets of competitors, but it's the reigning Tag Champs who claim victory tonight here at Genesis. Jeremy Borash talks to Cowboy James Storm backstage and Storm says that Kurt Angle sucks. He says that he's going to defeat Angle for the third time in a row. Sorry about your damn luck! We're shown a video package that documents the rivalry between the Cowboy and the Olympic Gold Medalist. Kurt Angle's point of view is that a super kick is just a oneoff kick. Angle claims that James Storm is not a wrestler, he's a kickartist. Kurt intends to wrestle Storm out of his boots and make him tap to the ankle lock, but Storm says that he's fine and dandy with super kicking Kurt Angle to make it his Last Call for lights out in Storm's third victory over Kurt in a row. Live next, Angle vs. Storm at Genesis! Kurt Angle vs. Cowboy James Storm Storm's got a smile on his face as he tries a Last Call Super Kick early and Kurt Angle backtracks all the way out of the ring. Angle regroups to come back in and go at Storm, but again Storm is ready to use the Last Call and Kurt slides under the bottom rope to avoid the finish. James Storm is happy to bide his time as he waits for Angle. As he does he sends Kurt over the top rope on the far side and he then follows up by launching himself over to Kurt at ringside. Storm takes Angle back in the ring and corners him to administer a tencount punch. This embarrases Kurt and Angle grabs Storm to pop the hips and release an explosive over the head belly to belly suplex on the Cowboy. Angle is quick to corner Storm and he chokes him with his boot before exiting the ring and laying into Storm's torso over the ring apron. Back in the ring Angle grounds and pounds Storm as the comms tell that this is exactly where Kurt wants Storm. Off his feet and unable to breath well, can definatley lead to a victory for Kurt Angle. Angle wears Storm down, but the Cowboy uses the proverbial twelfth man to get motivated and the cheers and rumbling from the fans has Storm back to his feet and has him clotheslining Angle down. This isn't Kurt Angle's first rodeo though. he quickly averts the momentum and triple German Suplexes Storm to grind him down and Angle then adminsiters a moonsault to cover, he gets One, gets Two but Storm kicks out. Angle goes at him harder, but Storm gets back to his feet where he tries to set up for a Last Call, but Angle counters with an Angle Slam and that gets yet another Twocount. Angle pulls down the straps to his singlet and sets for a super kick of his own, but Storm counters with a cutter and that gets him Two as well. Storm takes some time as he heads top rope, but Angle's up and he runs toward the corner. Storm scouts this though and he sends Angle crashing before flying off for a diving elbow. This gets him Two on the count and Storm then sets for a Last Call. Angle however pulls the referee in the way of the move. Storm doesn't administer it, but the ref is blindesided as he stumbles and Angle lowblows Storm before booting him in the face superkickish style and that gets him the Three. Winner: Kurt Angle.

He's asked where Abyss is, but he says he doesn't know maybe he took the rest of the night off. A video package shows us how the leader of the selfish generation, Bobby Roode has emerged to be TNA's World Heavyweight Champion. 2012 is here and Jeff Hardy wants to make sure that the year is full of only success. Roode says that Hardy has had his time. He's had more than enough chances and he blew it. Many have been angry at Hardy for his turmoil last year, but through perseverence and hard work, Jeff Hardy has worked his way back to main event level and Sting, among others, has endorsed Hardy's excellent comeback. Will Roode make an example of Hardy or will the Charasmatic Enigma regrace the Creatures of the Night with the World Championship? We find out Live next at Genesis! Live backstage we watch as Bobby Roode tells JB that there will not be a case of redemption tonight. Roode says that he is the itfactor of Professional Wrestling. Roode says that he will do whatever it takes to stay the World Heavyweight Champion and no one, especially not Jeff Hardy will knock him off his pedestal. Jeff Hardy vs. Robert Roode (c) TNA World Heavyweight Championship Hardy's fully facepainted but Roode's the man in charge as this World Title match gets under way. The audience is very much on Jeff's side, but Roode corners him to drill him with knees and heavy closedfist right hands. The referee backs Roode off and this allows Hardy to burst out of the corner to soon perform an inverted atomic drop. This leads to a legtrip and double legdrop to Roode's midriff. Hardy has the fans going as he sends Roode to ringside before flying off the ring apron and landing square on the current World Champ. Both men exchange at ringside, but Hardy remains on top as he sends Roode knees frist into the steel steps. He next sets Roode against the steel guard rail and Hardy runs to spring off the steel steps and smash a high impact dropkick in the mush of Bobby Roode. The contest goes back in the ring where Hardy attempts Whisper In The Wind, but he telegraphs it and Roode is able to deck Hardy and have him momentarily in a Tree of Woe. Roode performs a backbreaker across the knee and that gets Two on the count. Roode sends Hardy into the turnbuckles with his full body weight behind the Irish whip and Hardy's back smashes off out the corner as Roode maintains control. The comms discuss how Jeff Hardy is reknowned for his resilience and Roode is finding it frustrating that Hardy just doesn't stay down. Taz says that sometimes you have to know when to call it a day to fight another night, but Tenay says that without the constant kickouts and passion to keep going, Jeff Hardy wouldn't be the man he is today. Roode dumps Hardy out the ring. Dominates him before bring him back in with yet another cover and another kickout by Jeff. Roode neautralises Hardy, grounding him so that Hardy is off his feet and unable to fly as he so often and so frequently does. The fans play their part as Hardy tries to fight back, but Roode counters by administering the Crossface! Hardy is in a world of pain and he's got nowhere to go as Roode has the Crossface syntched in hard. Hardy shows a lot of heart though, getting to the bottom rope, but he's certainly worn out now. Roode drags Hardy up by the hair before scoop slamming him and going to the middle turnbuckle to taunt ala Hardy and mock his opponent. Roode jumps off, but Hardy raises his feet right in the mush and now we're back on an even playing field. Roode and Hardy exchange right hands as they get to their feet and Jeff's the one with the momentum as he performs a moonhigh backdrop. Hard follows with a Russian Legsweep into a unique pinning predicament, but he only gets Two as Roode now digs deep to come back and nail Hardy with a DoubleRSpinebuster. Roode covers for One, Two no, Hardy kicks out. The two exchange once more with Roode failling a superplex and Hardy failling a Swanton. Roode thinks about leaving, taking a Countout, but Hardy is having none of it and he takes Roode back in the ring to administer a Twist of Fate and then a Whisper In The Wind, but Roode kicks out! Robert Roode shows what he's made of, but instead of fighting on he exits the ring and tries to leave with his Championship Belt. Hardy chases him and forces him back into the ring. Roode still has the Belt in hand as Hardy tries a Twist of Fate. The ref takes the Belt though and this allows a counter by Roode and a cover with his feet on the ropes but the referee doesn't count the pin, telling Roode off instead. Roode and Hardy battle back and forth, but as Roode backs off, he nails the referee with a lowblow! Hardy adminsters a Twist of Fate and covers, but the referee's already called for the bell. Winner by way of Disqualification: Jeff Hardy. Robert Roode keeps the Title. Hardy can't believe it as the official result of the match is announced and we watch as he goes top turnbuckle to Swanton on the retaining Champ. It's an absolutely frustrating night for Jeff Hardy as Bobby Roode hangs on to the Title like he's hanging on for dear life. Hardy perhaps was moments from winning, but Roode took the low road out. What a dispicable way to retain the company's top Title.
