JUDGMENT DAY, Year 2

TNA/WWE have the first pay-per-view of May. Looks like a really good card to me.

Match 1. Chris Sabin vs. Fandango   X-Division Championship
Fandango dropped his elbow into Sabin's back. He then hit a Russian leg sweep. After a near fall, Sabin countered an STO and landed a jumping DDT. Sabin continued with a running neck breaker and a dropkick and retained the title.

Match 2. The Usos vs. The Shield
The Usos hit Reigns with an atomic drop/running boot combo. All four men took the fight to the outside. Jey hit Reigns with a bulldog. Rollins tossed him into the steel post. Back in the ring, Rollins and Reigns hit Jimmy with a clothesline/chop block tag move. Reigns slammed Jimmy's head against the mat and won.

Match 3. Submission - Dean Ambrose vs. Cody Rhodes   Intercontinental Championship
Ambroses' partners won, can he? Ambrose had Rhodes in a full nelson. He then slammed him down face first. He hit the front headlock driver and locked in a camel clutch, but Cody grabbed the ropes. Cody hit the Alabama Slam. He later went for Cross Rhodes, but Dean countered and hit another finisher. Cody countered and locked in a sleeper hold to win the title.

Match 4. Tomko and Gunner vs. Bad Influence   TNA Tag Team Championship
Gunner and Tomko hit Kaz with a double sit-out chokeslam (weird to explain). Kaz fought back and hit the reverse Tombstone on Gunner, but he kicked out. He later hit a running heel kick, but got another two count. Daniels almost won with a roll up on Tomko. Tomko then hit a spinning cutter and won.

Match 5. Last Man Standing - Batista vs. Daniel Bryan
Bryan landed a leg sweep. Batista came back with a spinning sidewalk slam. Bryan took control with a running forearm smash and a double underhook powerbomb. He then DDT'd Batista on the apron. Batista got up at the count of five. He brought in a chair and garbage can. Batista hit the Batista Bomb on the chair and won.

Match 6. John Cena vs. Ryback   WWE Championship
Cena hit the Five Knuckle Shuffle and the AA, but Ryback kicked out. Ryback grabbed Cena by the throat and tossed him over his head. He hen landed a huge suplex. Cena got another near fall after a hip toss. Ryback landed a belly-to-belly and almost won. He then connected with the meat hook clothesline to win the title.

Main Event. I Quit - Sting vs. Jeff Hardy   TNA World Championship
Hardy targeted the head of Sting. He landed a back elbow smash and a jaw breaker. Jeff then left the ring and took apart the announce table. Jeff grabbed Sting and landed a flipping face buster and Sting went face-first into a chair. Sting made it to his feet and hit the Scorpion Death Drop and Jeff quit.

Recap: A lot of titles changed hands at this event. Ryback is back on top, Tomko/Gunner are unstoppable. Sting retains after a very quick I Quit match. Cody is now a double champion.
