On IMPACT last week, Chase Stevens tricked Rohit Raju into a match, setting up the contest this week. Would he come to regret it?
Rohit Raju vs Chase Stevens on IMPACT Wrestling
Rohit Raju really took it to the Natural in this match. Lighting the former 3-time NWA World Tag Team Champion early, a modified Russian leg sweep and an elbow to the throat earned him a two-count.
The more Stevens kicked out, however, the more frustrated The Last Desi became. Stevens began to light up Raju with some rights, but a back elbow knocked him out. Some trash talk, though, allowed Stevens to get in with a big boot and a German suplex. A Scissors Kick nearly gave Stevens the win.
Raju feigned a low blow, forcing the ref to prevent an attack by Stevens. Raju followed up with a flash knee strike to the jaw. The double stomp to the back put Stevens away, giving Raju a much needed win.
Results: Rohit Raju defeated Chase Stevens via pinfall on IMPACT Wrestling.
Grade: C
After the match, Raju called himself the most underrated wrestler in the world. However, as he turned around, he was met with a Gore from Rhino. Raju was cut in half as Rhino sent a message to man that had been verbally tearing down TNA Originals for quite some time.
Backstage, Nevaeh finally revealed why she'd turned up at IMPACT Wrestling. After what happened to Father James Mitchell, she knew she had to check in on her longtime friend, because Havok is a terrifying and unstoppable force on her own.
Instead, IMPACT Wrestling's Knockouts Division has to deal with the horrifying duo of Havok and Nevaeh.
