He pulled off his own aerial attack with a moonsault off the top rope for a nearfall. Taurus hit a twisting splash and a spear for a two-count. Both men traded big moves until Alexander hit a powerbomb backbreaker and the C4 Spike for the win to retain his title.This was a level of physicality not always seen in X-Division Championship matches. Josh Alexander showed all the ways that he is a superb professional wrestler. He pulled out the suplexes, strikes, high flying and submissions to show his full range. Black Taurus made for a strong opponent who pushed Alexander to his limits.
