AJ went into his match against Kong with a plan and it paid off... The Olympic champion needs to rethink his strategy if he wants to end this PHENOMENAL title reign... Resolution was exceptional from top to bottom, my friend... Paves the way for an exciting new year. Truth! By hook or by crook, AJ is determined to keep his hands on that title. Angle is going to have to outsmart him if he wants to win it back. Thanks for your continued interest, means a lot!

Chris Sabin has Johnny Mundo, er Johnny Impact, ah John Morrison's number. Hitting John's finisher on him post match was a nice touch.

Impact December - Week 4 - Year 1 Commentary: Excalibur and Taz
The show kicks off with Danhausen making his way to the ring dressed as Santa. "Hello!! Christopher Massachusetts here, nice to see you all!" He shakes hands with fans as he makes his way to the ring. "Yuletide to you all, and to all a good night," continues Danhausen. As he gets to the ring, he and his sack of gifts get tangled in the ropes and he has to be freed by security. As that happens, Eric Young's music starts. Young demands to know how an idiot like Danhausen is allowed any TV time. As Young confronts him in the ring and starts pushing him, Moose bursts out of a large present already in the ring, dressed as Rudolph, and stops Young.
Eric Young def. Moose by submission Moose is somewhat hampered by his Rudolph outfit, and Young wins with a top rope dragon sleeper as he forces Moose to pass out.
Post match, Danhausen gets even when he does the Tequila Dancehausen on Young, much to the delight of the crowd. Moose is back up now and as he stands over Young, he says he can join them for a Christmas song. Moose looks at Danhausen and says: "I heard him exclaim, as he he drove through the night..." and Danhausen, whose eyes light up, yells: "I will punch you in the groin, with all of my might!" and he punches Young

America's Most Wanted are interviewed backstage. James Storm says LAX believed they had the win sewn up at Final Resolution, well sorry about your damn luck.

Danhausen is a brilliant way to kick off any show... Regardless of what the Merchant of Mayhem might think... Loving the Styles-Purrazzo connection... And I truly enjoyed watching Nese score a big win over Kross -- So much for the War on the Skinny Boys. HA!
AMW are looking great with gold around their waists... I suspect Gargano might be sharing that look in the near future.
Another excellent show, my friend... Lots of great angles developing as this promotion continues running red hot!

Like how you're incorporating Legends into this fed as well with the challenge laid out by Road Dogg & Billy Gunn... This will not be a walk in the park for AMW... Fun stuff!

Impact January - Week 1 - Year 2 Commentary: Excalibur and Taz
The Pope kicks off the show by announcing his Trial Series has come to town, but before he can really kick off his spiel he is interrupted by Daga. Daga says the Trial Series is an absolute joke, and no one is buying it, he lost the series in the opening week and yet no one seems to be acknowledging Daga's win.

Feast or Fired Buy In Alex Zayne def. Rich Swann and Mike Bailey A Taco Driver on Swann sees Zayne qualify for the Feast or Fired match

Rohit Raju by pinfall Raju initially shocks Angle, but when he goes to the top Angle catches him on the dive and manoeuvres him into an Olympic Slam to get the pin
America's Most Wanted are interviewed backstage. Chris Harris says he and James Storm are no rookies, despite what the James Gang seem to think, so their veteran flexing certainly doesn't impress them. However, Storm says, they do love a fight, and so AMW will be at Xplosion and will hand them their asses.
Awesome Kong def. Brittany Blake by pinfall Kong destroys Blake, but prolongs the attack to make a point to Purrazzo. She finally finishes the match with an Awesome Bomb
