10 Ups & 2 Downs From IMPACT Wrestling (30 Sep)

1. Those B*stards

This Eddie Edwards, Moose, and W. Morrissey story is bubbling beautifully, peaking with last night's Street Fight between Edwards and Morrissey.

Going down without involvement from Moose was mandatory for the bout. He'd been barred from ringside for causing injury to Sami Callihan, but, wrestling being wrestling, he was expected to intervene anyway. That he didn't is a solid sign for the rivalry's success.

The fight was brutal. The above image shows the former Big Cass clocking Eddie with a boot to the head, a move that appeared to fully connect with Eddie's cranium in a sickening visual. The manner in which Eddie crumpled to the way added to the move's impact. It helped that it wasn't fought as your traditional WWE-style Street Fight in that the duo weren't constrained to using anything but a couple of chairs. Eddie did Powerbomb Morrissey through a couple of chairs, but he'd win the match via Boston Knee Party that was aided by a chair wrapped in barbed wire. Morrissey, like Eddie before him, sunk into the mat in a heap.

Moose would Spear Eddie through a table next match before gruesomely targeting the former World Champion's neck. Two instances saw Moose wrap a chair around Eddie's neck, then hit it with a second chair, causing the first bit of steel to contort tightly. It was brutal, and became a far better spot when Morrissey forced Alisha to watch.

A gnarly, vicious, suitable show-closing segment.
