MOTOR CITY MACHINE GUNS (C) VS. GENERATION ME

  

The opening video shows a variety of Impact Wrestling before text shows saying One Night Will Change Everything. I may begin taking one week from the month and reviewing one event/wrestler/team etc. But we all know how that usually goes.

Mike Tenay welcomes us to the show. He covers tonight’s main event, Kurt Angle vs. Mr. Anderson vs. Jeff Hardy. Also Abyss faces Rob Van Dam in the Monster’s Ball. But before all of that we have this tag team match.

Mike Tenay and Tazz are on commentary for this match. Mike Tenay goes through the Tag Lines. Motor City Machine Guns finally won the titles, then Generation Me sent a message trying to attack Chris Sabin’s neck and steal the title belts. I’m going to be pausing a lot in this match; my thought as the Machine Guns make their way out. They get a decent reaction but there’s a “Detroit Sucks” sign right on the hard cam.

 

MOTOR CITY MACHINE GUNS VS. GENERATION ME

(TNA Tag Team Championships)

TNA Bound for Glory 2010 (10^th October 2010)

  Alex Shelley starts with the darker-haired Max Buck. Buck backs Shelley into the corner to break the hammerlock.

  Max Buck elbows Shelley and beats him down in the corner but takes too long to celebrate. Shelley chops Buck back into the ropes and grabs a headlock momentarily before being sent off the ropes. Buck goes prone and tries to hip-toss Shelley but is taken over with an arm drag. Shelley catches a kick and sweeps Buck’s leg. Buck is sent between the Motor City Machine Guns with forearm strikes in the corner and Alex Shelley connects with an enziguri, covering for 2. Chris Sabin sits across the middle rope so dark-haired Buck can be sent into his boots and he tags in. Sabin kicks Buck in the corner before Buck is choked with Sabin’s boot. Alex Shelley tags in, knocking Jeremy Buck from the apron and he sends Sabin into Buck in the corner with a jumping forearm. Alex Shelley uses Sabin as a springboard, hitting a jumping back elbow on Buck in the corner. Max Buck is rolled up in a cover but kicks out at 2.

  Jeremy Buck tries to help his brother but is kicked in the gut and send out of the ring with another kick. There’s another chop for Max but Jeremy Buck trips Shelley. Max runs at  helley with a dropkick before Generation Me switch out. Jeremy lays in some boots and snaps Shelley’s arm over his shoulder. Alex Shelley reverses an irish whip but Buck bails to avoid a superkick. Chris Sabin punts Jeremy’s jaw into the third row as Max Buck gets back into the ring. Alex Shelley meets him with forearms and sends Max across the ring, hitting an inverted atomic drop. Sabin hits a basement dropkick, Shelley flips over Buck, grabbing the jaw and another dropkick connects from Sabin. Max joins his brother on the floor and the Machine Guns hit stereo Tope Suicidas as we get a break for some reason. The fans chant for TNA as we come back and Alex Shelley sends Jeremy Buck into the ring. Alex Shelley hits a crossbody from the top rope for a nearfall.

  Tazz mentions that Sabin has had his neck tested recently to keep track of his recovery as Shelley is sent into the corner. Jeremy Buck charges but hits the turnbuckles, Shelley with a shoulder block through the ropes and snaps Buck’s jaw off the top rope. Jeremy Buck lingers around the referee, keeping his back turned so Max can trip Alex Shelley, crotching him on the top turnbuckle. Chris Sabin tries to get in the ring but Brian Hebner keeps him in the corner, giving Generation Me time to hit a double-team DDT to Shelley. Jeremy Buck slaps Shelley in the face, but Alex Shelley replies with one of his own. Jeremy Buck hits an amazing tornado kick and covers but Sabin makes the save. He darts back to the corner and plays innocent to the referee as Max Buck gets the tag. Generation Me send Shelley off the ropes into a double hip toss and sandwich dropkicks Max covers and Shelley kicks out at 2, so he is sent into Jeremy’s boot in the corner. Another tag from Gen Me. They send Shelley off the ropes, and Generation Me hit a cool sequence of moves.

  Jeremy Buck puts a stop to any pace putting Shelley in a chinlock and Alex Shelley fights to his feet. Shelley hits the ropes but Max is there with a cheap kick from the apron. Alex Shelley is set up for a superplex but fights out of it as Jeremy climbs to the top rope. Max Buck is there, but Shelly fights him off too before hitting a double foot stomp, although it looked like he wanted a frog splash to me. Both teams make the tag and Sabin is able to duck a right hand and knocks Max Buck down with forearms. Jeremy is cut off on the apron as Max uses the corner to stay on his feet. Chris Sabin hits a hesitation elbow in the corner, which I don’t remember seeing. Max Buck is tied up in the Tree of Woe and a fired up Alex Shelley is sent into him with a baseball slide. Chris Sabin follows up with the hesitation dropkick. He flies out onto Jeremy on the floor and hits a flying clothesline on Max back in the ring! He covers but Jeremy Buck kicks out at 2 ½!

  Max Buck avoids a boot in the corner and rolls over to where Jeremy should be, but there’s no one to tag. Chris Sabin slaps Max across the face and the champions hit a great double-team move that I can’t describle. Jeremy has made it back to the ring to break up the cover and a knee to the midsection sends him back into the ropes but he gets his boot up to a charging Alex Shelley. Jeremy scrambles to the apron and springboards into a dropkick from Sabin, knocking him down to the floor! Alex Shelley eats shit on a slingshot Plancha and Jeremy hits a springboard facebuster to Sabin as Max makes another appearance. Tags have just gone out of the window by this point, if you didn’t know, Jeremy hits a double-sledge on Shelley on the floor as Max Buck flips Sabin over with a wheelbarrow facebuster. Max Buck covers but Sabin’s shoulder is up at 2.999. Generation Me set up a draping DDT to Sabin, using the top rope but a german suplex from Shelley to Jeremy puts a stop to that. Pretty sick landing by Buck there.

  Chris Sabin backs Max into the corner, Alex Shelley is out on the apron, he hits an enziguri to the back of Max Buck’s head. Jeremy Buck shoves Shelley from the top rope as MCMG attempt the Welcome to Detroit! Max Buck hits a cutter out of the corner and Jeremy flies out onto Shelley! Sabin is draped across the middle rope as Jeremy Buck hits a 450 splash from the corner. Max covers but Shelley saves the titles at the last second. Max Buck removes his elbow pad before throwing forearms, but is caught in a front facelock by Shelley. Jeremy is caught from a springboard fuck all and Shelley falls back hitting a DDT on Max and a reverse STO on Jeremy. Nova needs a week, he was great at these. Alex Shelley rolls Sabin into their corner and makes a tag. He hits the mat with a double-foot stomp and is trapped in a headscissors, Max Buck hits a dropkick and Chris Sabin sends Jeremy flipping with a clothesline on the other side of the ring. This match is moving so fast reading it can’t do it justice.

  Chris Sabin is sent overhead to the floor by Max Buck, Alex Shelley lands on his feet on a Sliced Bread #2 attempt and is hit with a spear by Max Buck. Max hits a standing moonsault as Jeremy hits a springboard frog splash and it still doesn’t get the win! They begin the More Bang for Your Buck, but Jeremy is caught in a clinch by Shelley, Max stays on the top rope for Sabin to hit a german suplex to the mat.

  Jeremy is left alone with the champions, Shelley goes to the top rope, hitting a cross body to assist his partner with the neckbreaker. Alex Shelley covers for the win.

WINNER: MOTOR CITY MACHINE GUNS (STILL TNA Tag Team Champions)

This match was an insane pace for the length, it was 12 minutes and the final third didn’t give you a chance to breathe, which helped it fly by. You knew to expect spots but there was the story of The Motor City Machine Guns having injured necks. Great match, just go watch it when you can. [***¾] 8.25/10
