{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}- TNA changed the format of this year's Xtravanganza. It was announced than newcomers & returning former TNA X-Division guys will face off against current X-Division stars in order to qualify for the Ultimate X main event match, with the winner receiving a future shot at the X-Division Title.
- Low Ki d. Chris Sabin via pin with the Ki Krusher. Sabin tossed Ki into the turnbuckle. Low Ki countered & landed on the middle rope & hit his Warrior's Way stomp followed by the Ki Krusher for the win.
- Rashad Cameron d. DJ Z via pin after he countered a Tornado DDT attempt from DJ Z into an inside cradle for the win.
- Kenny King d. Rubix via pin with his Coronation finisher.
- Ace Vedder(Trent Baretta) d. Manik.
- Sonjay Dutt d. Rockstar Spud via pin after hitting his Moonsault Double Stomp.
- Tigre Uno d. Petey Williams. Williams' nose was bleeding profusely during the match but he completed the match.
- Ethan Carter III came out & issued an invitational challenge. He said this is the first year of the Ethan Carter Invitational Ladder Match with a $25,000 cash prize to the winner. They announced Bad Influence vs. The Wolves in the ladder match.
- The Wolves d. Bad Influence in the Ethan Carter Invitational Ladder Match. Excellent tag team match. Carter raised the hands of The Wolves following their win & then quickly walked away, putting the check back in his pocket. The Wolves laid out EC3 & grabbed the check from his pocket.
- Senada d. Austin Aries in a 2 out of 3 Falls Match for the TNA X-Division Title. Senada got the win in 2 consecutive falls.
- Low Ki d. Rashad Cameron, Kenny King, Ace Vedder, Sonjay Dutt & Tigre Uno in the Ultimate X Match after pulling down the X, earning a shot at the TNA X-Division Title.

Didn't Baretta wrestle under a different name last year?

Wait...I thought Low Ki retired?.... He did. He was badly injured/pissed off NJPW and claimed he was done and he was out for a good bit. He had his first matches back that I know of over Mania weekend for DGUSA.

He had his first matches back that I know of over Mania weekend for DGUSA. Basically he left WWE. Went to Gabe's Universe. Showed up in TNA for a hot second. Pissed off Gabe and went to NJPW. Had a good run there before pissing off NJPW. Announced he was retired. Came out of retirement for a gig with All Japan. Literally got squashed by Akebono and got hurt bad. Retired again after All Japan decided not pay for his injury. How long is he with TNA this time? Who knows? And Ace Vedder? He needs to team with Lars Only.

To be fair to Low Ki, even if he is a gigantic dick by all accounts, the reason NJPW dropped him is a fairly ridiculous one that I'd be bitter over to if it happened to me.

Any idea if anyone has signed contracts off of this? With Low-Ki taking the win I'm guessing he's going to be working TV for a while and strangely with Cameron going over DJ Z, I have a feeling he may have signed up. I think if Bad Influence and Sabin are gone, they'll have picked up a few of these guys for sure.

He wore a Agent 47 of Hitman fame outfit for his match at Wrestle Kingdom years ago. Low Ki wrestled the whole match still rocking the suit against Prince Devitt. While he did look bad ass, NJPW didn't sign off on the ring gear and were pissed. So he lost his spot in NJPW for that. This was shortly after Bushiroad bought the company.

I think if Bad Influence and Sabin are gone, they'll have picked up a few of these guys for sure. Given how many guys are leaving the company now and the focus Sanada/Tigre Uno have gotten in recent weeks, I think they'd be very smart to take some of these guys and sign them up. It's one thing to cut the budget and offer lower contracts to guys who have been there forever; sometimes financial reality just sucks for a company and it leads to stuff like Styles, Sabin, and Bad Influence leaving. It's another to have that financial reality and then do nothing to rebuild afterward. If TNA really wants to rebuild, then it's time to bring in new blood, or at least guys who have been off TV for a good while, and save some money while starting off a "new generation" phase.

Sounds like a pay per view worth ordering! Sounds hands-down better than the "World Cup" they didn't bother to import wrestlers for.

I was saving my money for Slammiversary, but I will definitely order Xtravaganza! I might have to sell one of my kidneys, though.
