Chris Bey w/Rohit Raju vs Manik on IMPACT Wrestling
Chris Bey started the match of strong, battering Manik in the corner. Eventually, Manik was able to escape through the ropes and turn Bey inside out with a tilt-a-whirl headscissors. A tilt-a-whirl alpine slame planted Bey before he was dumped to the floor for a dive.
Back in the ring, Bey struggled to keep up with the IMPACT Wrestling X-Division Champion, but caught him eventually going through the ropes with a kick to the head. A leaping elbow off the second rope brought Manik down for a two-count.
Bey continued to work over the champ while Rohit Raju begged him to tear the mask off. The constant distractions kept Manik in the match more than anything, and a back suplex bounced Bey off the mat, momentarily picking up steam. A leaping kick dazed Manik, but he was able to avoid the Art of Finesse.
Manik crawled under the ring and appeared on the other side. When Bey turned around, a diving crossbody connected. Following a running double knee in the corner, the Detonation Kick dropped the former champion.
Bey avoided another maneuver by holding onto the referee, catching Manik with a low blow at the same time. The ref turned around to see Raju trying to tear his mask off. Bey tried to get him to leave, and when he turned was hit by Raju, forcing the DQ.
Results: Chris Bey defeated Manik via DQ on IMPACT Wrestling.
Grade: B+
Bey had a wide grin on his face, and it seemed that both Manik and Rohit Raju were finessed. With a win over Manik, Bey is now in line for a title shot, all the while making Raju look like a fool.
