Match 5.  Main Event.  Josh Alexander and Impact World Champion, Christian Cage VS Ace Austin and Madman Fulton

The tension between the champion and challenger is very high.  It feels very strange they are partners.  They are playing this angle very different than the hokey way WWE sets up tags with two guys about to enter in a match.  There is no smirks and bad jokes.  This is all business.

The match begins with Christian and Fulton.  Fulton muscles Cage to the ground.  Christian ducks a punch and hits a few of his own, but Fulton catches him and whips him into the buckle.  Alexander tags in and Fulton clotheslines them both.  Ace tags in and he goes to work on Josh.  He hits a few knee strikes, but Josh backdrops him off the ropes.  Josh hits a vertical suplex.   Ace gets a cheap shot and tosses Josh to the outside.  He works Josh over on the outside and brings him back in.  Ace then hits a spinning leg kick and we go to break.

Ace is in with Josh as we return.  Ace hits a big buzz saw kick for a two count.  Ace drives a knee to Josh’s head, but Josh fights his way out of the corner.  Christian tags in and Ace injures his arm on the barricade after missing a dive to the outside.  Cage goes right to work.  Christian hits a Unprettier.  Ace kicks out and locks on a front face lock.  Fulton tags back in and hits several diving head buts.

Fulton then slows the match down, stomping on the champion.  Christian finally gets to his feet, but Fulton hits a knee to the stomach and then back.  He then locks on a unique headlock with his arm wrapped inside the other arm crushing the neck.  Christian desperately needs a tag.  Ace hits a kick to the head and Fulton hits a splash.  Christian is in bad shape.  Ace takes out Josh on the apron.  Christian hits a spear out of nowhere.  Josh gets to the apron and Josh and Fulton tag in.  Fulton misses a kick and Josh connects with a slam onto the top rope.  He hits a F5.  Fulton kicks out at one.  Josh starts with the Germans.  Fulton can’t break the waste lock.  Finally he backs Josh into the corner.  Ace tags in and they hits a double suplex.  Christian breaks up the Fold.  Josh misses a C4.  Ace goes for a kick and Josh grabs the ankle.  Ace gets out of the ankle lock.  Josh hits a chaos, but Christian made a blind tag.  Christian hits the kills switch and gets the pin.

Winners.  Josh Alexander and Christian Cage.

Alexander is very annoyed Christian stole the glory and tells Christian.  Christian pats his shoulder and raises his hand in victory and walks off as the show ends.
