Michael Elgin defeats Eddie Edwards

Impact Wrestling February 11: Best of 5 Series

Elgin hit the first high impact move with a side suplex. Edwards turned the match around with a dragon screw through the ropes. Climbing the ropes, Eddie dove at Elgin, but Elgin countered with a sit-down powerbomb. Edwards couldn’t get his head in the match and Elgin continued to beat him down.

Edwards eventually hit a clothesline and a tiger driver to swing the match in his favor. Elgin slid to the outside, but Edwards immediately hit a tope. Edwards went for a top rope hurricanrana, but Elgin held on, but rather than take a powerbomb, Edwards persisted and got the hurricanrana.

Edwards connected with a German suplex, but Elgin countered the Boston Knee Party to hit the Elgin Bomb for the pinfall victory.
