Not AJ Styles vs. Christopher Daniels vs. Samoa Joe.

Not America's Most Wanted vs. Triple X.

Not Awesome Kong vs. Gail Kim.

Jessie Godderz and Angelina Love vs. Knux and Rebel.

38 million views have accumulated on this match in its eight-year existence on YouTube, and that's not because of Jessie Godderz' rotten 'Masterpiece' Chris Masters and/or 'Narcissist' Lex Luger tribute act. Truthfully, it'll be because it's a mixed tag team match. The stereotypical wrestling fan will chastise a promotion day and night until it's a mixed tag team match, upon which discovery they'll rewind and repeat, their jaws agape at Rebel's Melina-esque split-legged ring entrance and legdrop, the latter of which had less impact in execution than Hulk Hogan's old man punches circa-2011.

The match was dry, though nobody was watching - your writer, the consistent TNA defender, excluded - so it held no weight if it sucked. Its only compensatory elements were the uncharacteristically splendid displays from Knux; the former Mike Knox was never a dependable talent, a lengthy beard and nothing more, but he was the star on this night.

Skip to 4:13 to see him boot Jessie Godderz' head clean off.

So crisp, so clean, so fluid; all traits anomalous of Mike Knox.
