Impact Wrestling's "Turning Point" Pay Per View Review
Orlando, Florida - Universal Studios - December 6th, 2013
In a night that will be remembered for a long time to come, Impact Wrestling's "Turning Point" pay per view event delivered in spades. The event, which was taped on February 7th, 2013, featured an array of matches that showcased the best of what this promotion has to offer.
The evening kicked off with Magnus defeating Mr. Anderson in a World Cup match, with Magnus emerging victorious after a thrilling 10:51 minute contest. This set the tone for the rest of the night, as the action was fast-paced and hard-hitting from start to finish.
Kenny King followed suit by defeating Sonjay Dutt in another World Cup match, with King's power and agility proving too much for Dutt to handle. Meanwhile, Lei'D Tapa made a statement in her World Cup debut, quickly dispatching Hannah Blossom in just 5:01 minutes.
The Aces And Eights faction showed their strength by defeating Funaki and Petey Williams in a World Cup tag team match, while Christopher Daniels and Kazarian proved why they're one of the top teams in the promotion by besting Doug Williams and Rob Terry in another World Cup tag team match.
Ivelisse continued her winning ways with a victory over Mickie James, while James Storm also got on the board with a win over Judas Mesias. The night's main event saw Christopher Daniels, James Storm, Kazarian, Kenny King, and Mickie James take on Aces And Eights (DOC, Ivelisse, Knux, Mr. Anderson, and Wes Brisco) in a World Cup final ten-man tag team elimination match. This match was an absolute showstopper, with each participant bringing their A-game to the table.
In the end, it was Daniels who got the pin on DOC to secure the win for his team. The crowd was electric throughout the night, and it's safe to say that Impact Wrestling has set the bar high for themselves moving forward.
