00:00Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the TNA X-Division champion, the Middle Eastern nightmare, Sheik Abdul Bashir!
00:16On the live impact from Las Vegas, X-Division title holder Sheik Abdul Bashir was confronted backstage by Rhino.
00:24After the War Machine turned his back to leave, Bashir attacked Rhino, he choked the life out of him, as you can see on the videotape from one week ago.
00:33Well, it just shows you the kind of person that this Sheik Abdul Bashir is.
00:36He's not afraid to take that shortcut when someone turns around and kind of do it in that way in his manner.
00:42But he's going to join us right now at the announce table and we'll be able to ask him a little bit about that situation between him and the War Machine.
00:49Rating X-Division champion, Sheik Abdul Bashir, to join us here at the broadcast table for commentary in this tag team matchup.
01:02Ladies and gentlemen, this is a 1-4 tag team contest. Introducing team number one, first representing New Japan Pro Wrestling, Hiroshi Kanahashi!
01:14The 31-year-old Hiroshi Kanahashi, nine years as a pro.
01:19You might remember, back in January of 2006, he faced AJ Styles at a Final Resolution K-Per-View.
01:27A two-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion with New Japan Pro Wrestling and Sheik Bashir, you have to be impressed with credentials like that.
01:37Yeah, that is pretty impressive and I've actually spent some time in Japan and he is a very well-known talent over there.
01:43And his tag team partner representing CMLL from Mexico City, Mexico, Volador!
01:5627-year-old Volador, an 11-year pro, yes he started at age 16, second generation competitor, Volador, translation, flyer, and he can certainly go, wrestles for CMLL based in Mexico City.
02:11And Volador competed for Team Mexico in this year's World X Cup here in TNA.
02:17And he actually captured the Ultimate X match back in July at Victory Road to allow Team Mexico to win the cup.
02:24He won it that night, but I'm standing before you X Division champs.
02:29And their opponents from Detroit, Michigan, Chris Saban and Alex Shelley, the Motor City Machine Guns!
02:37Excuse me?
02:39These two guys.
02:40I had my fill with them a couple weeks ago.
02:42Hopefully these guys can pick up the slack.
02:44International competition for the Motor City Machine Guns in the form of Tanahashi and Volador.
02:50One of the stars from Japan, one from Mexico to face Detroit, Michigan's own guns.
02:55And guys, after what we saw earlier, as we see the attack even before the bell from Tanahashi and Volador,
03:01I was just going to point out that the guns probably need to watch their back when it comes to beer money.
03:06Instead, they need to watch Tanahashi and Volador.
03:10Don't get me started on guys from Detroit.
03:12They remind me of some animal I got.
03:13Whoa!
03:14Jesus!
03:15Tanahashi right over the top rope.
03:17It was poetry in motion.
03:19And you saw him take advantage of Chris Saban.
03:22Now Tanahashi's got Alex Shelley in the ropes.
03:25Look at this!
03:27Big leg drop off the top by Volador.
03:30Putt, Shelley, flush.
03:32Gonna elevate him up into the air.
03:34Here comes Volador across.
03:36Put both knees right into his chest.
03:39Got to ask you, though, Sheik Abdul Bashir, the situation with you and Ryan on the War Machine.
03:44He turns his back, he's walking away, he's telling you he's answering your challenge,
03:47and then you hit him from behind.
03:49No, no, no, you got this all wrong.
03:51It's not like I unprovoked hit him from behind.
03:53He was the first one that goozled me, threw me up against the wall,
03:56giving me some anti-American rhetoric that I've been talking about,
04:00not even understanding that I'm American myself.
04:02I have just as much freedom of speech as the War Machine.
04:05Big backsplash.
04:08Forward roll through here.
04:10Tanahashi with the cover and barely a two count on Alex Shelley.
04:15Look at this situation, Sheik Bashir with the War Machine.
04:19Ryan will certainly heat it up last week in Las Vegas at turning point.
04:23TNA's next big pay-per-view.
04:25You are set to face the War Machine,
04:27and we have to turn that one a grudge match after what went down last week.
04:31You can call it whatever you want.
04:32It's gonna be me versus an animal.
04:34I'm gonna do what every Middle Eastern man does an animal.
04:37We lay him out to slaughter.
04:38Well, you gotta be careful with a man let the War Machine know.
04:41I mean, it's no secret he hits that gore.
04:43It doesn't matter who it is, he can cut you in half.
04:45The difference is if he can hit me with the gore,
04:48and I don't think you can.
04:50But from the second that you arrived here in TNA,
04:53Sheik Abdul Bashir, you have been the center of controversy.
04:56And the way I look at it, most of that controversy revolving around
04:59all of your anti-American comments as Volador drops Shelly with that big
05:04powerbomb and springs back and caught nothing but canvas.
05:08Everyone always gives me so much hard time about this anti-Americanism.
05:13Is it part of being American the freedom of speech?
05:15I was born in this country.
05:16I was raised in this country.
05:17I have just as much freedom of speech in this world to say whatever I want,
05:21be it good or bad about this nation.
05:23Motor City Machine Guns turning this thing around,
05:26and what a drop kick into the leg of Tanahashi.
05:29I was surprised at how well Tanahashi and Volador were working together,
05:32but now the guns doing what they do is click Saban on fire.
05:35Saban gonna come right at Volador, catches him with that elbow shot,
05:40and then just drives him right down, face first to the mat.
05:43Saban back out to the apron, goes springboard into the clothesline.
05:47Oh, so close to the three count.
05:50It's obvious to me as you're watching this,
05:52I'm watching your facial expression, Sheik,
05:54that you're obviously pulling for Volador and Tanahashi,
05:57is you have no love for the guns.
05:59After what they did to me a couple weeks ago,
06:01I have no love for the guns whatsoever.
06:02And even though they are great American talents,
06:05these guys will prove that international talent always is the best.
06:08And I'm going for Voldemort to take care of this guy for me right now.
06:10I want to remind you, up next here on Impact, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles,
06:14to face Kevin Nash and Booker T, yes, the originals,
06:17against the main event mafia as Voldemort just got sandwiched by the guns.
06:22Check this out, up in the shoulders of Saban.
06:25Shelly off the top with that big double boot and cradle shot.
06:29What? One, two, three.
06:31One, two, three.
06:32One, two, three.
06:35One, two, three.
06:37One, two, three.
06:39One, two, three.
06:41One, two, three.
06:44One, two, three.
06:45One, two, three.
06:47Knocking off Tanahashi and Bulador.
06:51Well, he just, look at this.
06:52He's just kicking a tear, destroying the set here, and he's mad.
06:56Got the X Division belt in hand, and he's walking to the ring.
06:59But, what a finish there by the Motor City Maschiga.
07:02and the exhibition title holder brings the championship belt into the ring and he is
07:17putting a bad mouth now on both bolador and tanahashi well that's just the way he is i
07:23mean he's somebody that he can't be can to break somebody when they don't come up to his standards
