#2. Josh Alexander vs. Chris Sabin for the X-Division Championship - IMPACT Wrestling Victory Road

The most recent X-Division Championship for Josh Alexander proved to be one of the toughest tests of his career. The Walking Weapon went out on a quest to prove himself as the greatest X-Division Champion of all time. To prove this, he made a challenge to any and all former champions to face him.

This IMPACT Wrestling Victory Road showdown pitted Alexander against one of the all-time great X-Division Champions in Chris Sabin of the Motor City Machine Guns. The contest kicked off differently from previous defenses for Alexander with a slow start as neither man wanted to make a mistake. There was plenty of counter wrestling with both men being proficient in technical ability.

Sabin is an eight-time X-Division Champion and has faced the best that has come into the division over the course of two decades in IMPACT Wrestling. He showed this here by having an answer to anything and everything that Josh Alexander brought to the table. He attacked Alexander's previously injured neck and had a focused gameplan.

Josh Alexander kept looking for the ankle lock, but Chris Sabin countered every attempt at the move. The latter got a back bridge for a two-count and kicked the head gear off of Alexander's head, which he responded with the C4 Spike for the win out of nowhere. It was a stellar encounter that was paced tremendously and had a fully invested crowd that responded to everything.
