Tag Team Ultimate X Match
XXX (Senshi and Elix Skipper) vs. LAX (Homicide and Hernandez)
TNA Bound for Glory 2007
Pre-Jeff Jarret stepping down TNA really is something special. There’s just an air about the shows and the crowds that sets it apart. Not to mention top of the line at WWE was struggling in the work rate department. TNAs main attractions collide here. First of all, the crowd is rabid from the get go. This is the opening match but this crowd did not need to be sold, they were already fully into this.
Ultimate X is a match usually renowned for high spots and dangerous landings. This one is more mellow because only one of them is really known to be a daredevil. Don’t worry though, Elix gets a two huge spots. The first by jumping off the tresses onto Hernandez, and the second taking a Neckbreak from Homicide from the Ultimate X ropes.
Like I said, this is not your typical Ultimate X match but it’s still really fucking good. XXX take it to LAXs level making this a Pier 4 brawl (not quite as rowdy as a Pier 6.). Elix and Senshi are perfect follies for Hernandez, and they get tossed around quite frequently throughout this match. LAX isn’t a team lauded for their fancy moves and that leads to Homicide kind of just being there. Like Homicides highlight is almost getting his leg broken from a Corner Double Stomp.
A really good match with not much for me to say. TNA in the mid-2000s was on a level all their own and if you’re not familiar with that period I highly encourage digging around their YouTube channel.
