Then just as Hernandez was about to hit the CrackerJack, Raven appeared out of nowhere and levelled Hernandez with the Evenflow DDT. Kazarian then took out Homicide with the Wave of the Future. Maverick woke up the referee as Kazarian covered Homicide for the win. Serotonin proved that they are the best cheaters in TNA. (8:11)

X Division Championship
Ultimate X Match
Alex Shelley vs. Jay Lethal vs. Johnny Devine vs. Austin Starr
In what has to be considered Match of the Night a new X Division Champion was crowned as Jay Lethal pinned Serotonin's Johnny Devine to get the 3 count. The match had some incredible momens like Alex Shelley dropkicking Austin Starr off of the X Structure from a ladder. But the best moment in the match was also the end of the match. As Devine and Alex Shelley were battling on top of the X, Devine got the upper-hand and pushed Shelley off. Devine had the perfect chance to win the match as Lethal and Starr were battling on the outside, but Devine looked at Shelley's prone body and then to the crowd. He the performed an incredible Serotosault onto Shelley, just as Lethal took Starr out with a Drogon Whip. When Devine landed the Serotosault the momentum caused him to flip back onto his feet. Lethal quickly got into the ring and performed a thunderous Lethal Injection. When all 3 men were out. Lethal climbed up and took the title from its perch. (18:24)

6 Man Tag-Team Match
The Revolution vs. Chris Sabin, Samoa Joe and A.J. Styles
In a great encounter between 2 teams that absolutely hate each other, Sabin, Joe and Styles managed to get the win. After Styles had been getting dominated by Tomko he managed to get the tag to Joe. Joe came in and cleaned house until Cage hit a low blow and then the Unprettier. Luckily for Team Sabin, Sabin managed to blind-tag Joe just before he was dropped. Sabin ran in and executed the Cradle Shock on to Cage for the 3. Thus meaning that it will be Chris Sabin vs. Daniels/Abyss for the World Title on Thursday Night. (13:45)

NWA World Heavyweight Championship
Abyss w/ James Mitchell & Giant Silva vs. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels- Special Guest Referee: Chris Jericho
In a night full of surprises, this match was no different. Even with Giant Silva in his corner Abyss couldn't help but lose his title to Christopher Daniels, making him the second Triple Crown Champion in TNA history. Chris Jericho must take some credit aswell because even when Abyss shoved him he maintained his cool and called it right down the middle. The match ended when Giant Silva tried to interfere but Daniels took out his knee and then hit a Thunderous Shining Wizard effectively taking out Silva. But the match looked over when Abyss picked up Daniels and spun him around going for the Black Hole Slam, but at the last second Daniels spinned out of it and then hit the Angel's Wings for the win. (15:12)

After the match Daniels could be seen crying very openly and looking up to the sky and saying thank you. Then in a moment that will go down in TNA history, Daniels hugged Chris Jericho and said thank you. Jericho raised Daniels hand as guys like A.J. Styles and even the man who will be challenging him on Thursday came out to hug and congratulate him. The night ended with the TNA Wrestlers putting Daniels on the shoulders as he raised the World Title high above his head.
