00:00His opponent, he is Chicago's own, Ace Steel!
00:08Now recently, Joe Hendry has gone to Ace Steel for extra training and coaching, but Ace Steel, his roots run deep here in TNA.
00:15If you scan the QR code on your screen right now, it'll take you directly to the TNA Asylum debut of Ace Steel on TNA Plus right now.
00:24Ace Steel debuting alongside one CM Punk Steel, who has helped train the best in the world.
00:32That's Hendry going to Steel, and now the Triumph Kid tossed into the ring.
00:36This match is underway. It's a Chicago street fight tonight on Impact.
00:41There is a lot of history with Ace Steel here in TNA, and he's making some new history tonight, taking the fight directly to the king of TNA.
00:52And a little extra incentive for Steel after how Kazarian eliminated Hendry this past Tuesday night on NXT.
00:59Get to the spine there of Kazarian. Joe Hendry has been trying to up his game. That's why he went to the foundation of pro wrestling.
01:07Ace Steel, who was trained by the late great wrestling legend Harley Race, brings that same Smash Mouth style to the ring,
01:16and that's going to be taken to another level because it's a Chicago street fight.
01:21And here's the thing. Look, I know you may not like the way Frankie Kazarian won, but against a lot.
01:27Is he cheating, Reywald?
01:29Yeah, but here's the thing. That's fine. Whatever. The camera footage is there.
01:33You're blind to cheating, aren't you?
01:35No, no, no, no, no, no. Here's the thing. Joe Hendry's a big boy. I know Ace has been his coach as of late, but he can stand on his own.
01:42He doesn't need to act like Daddy Warbucks over here stepping in on his behalf.
01:46He's not stepping in on his behalf because Frankie Kazarian asked for a matchup against Ace Steel.
01:52Santino Marella said, great, let's do it in a Chicago street fight.
01:56Right. The only reason he had to ask for that match is because Ace Steel was sticking his nose where it shouldn't have been.
02:02Suplex into the trash can. That's not the case. Kazarian tried to put the chicken wing on Hendry after the fact.
02:08And against all odds. And Ace Steel came out to do the right thing and he put Kazarian on his backside.
02:14There's a cover and a kick out by Kaz.
02:17Doing a hell of a job of doing that once again.
02:20Absolutely flattening that trash can with the body of Frankie Kazarian.
02:25A first time ever matchup here between Steel and Kazarian.
02:30Two men with decades of experience in professional wrestling.
02:34I mean, that's absolutely true.
02:36Oh, and Steel hard to the outside.
02:39But I would be remiss if I didn't point out, despite Ace Steel's incredible knowledge,
02:44he's an incredible coach, especially down there at the foundation of pro wrestling, like you said, in Florida.
02:49But Ace Steel has not been a full time competitor in quite a long time.
02:54Meanwhile, Frankie Kazarian, you could argue, is in some of the best shape of his career.
02:59No argument there. And Frankie Kazarian does have momentum right now by hook or by crook.
03:04That's why he's a part of the road to Slammiversary Field in two weeks.
03:08He'll go one on one with Mike Santana to find out who qualifies for the TNA World Title match in Montreal.
03:14And also Joe Hendry will be battling Jake Something also in two weeks time.
03:20Could we see Kazarian and Hendry meet up in that match at Slammiversary?
03:25I hope Mike Santana's watching. I hope Joe Hendry is watching this too.
03:32Kazarian continues the assault here on the outside of the ring.
03:37Dumping steel. The Chicago Street Fight continues here on Impact.
03:43Picture in picture.
03:47Kazarian out here on the floor, absolutely dismantling Ace Steel in Chicago.
03:56Dad from Spy Kids! Dad from Spy Kids!
04:00And chance of Dad from Spy Kids from the fans here in Chicago.
04:05Thanks to Joe Hendry against Salah.
04:07That's what you get for your insolence.
04:10Kazarian using the cameraman's cord, wrapping it around the throat of steel.
04:16No holds barred. One of Chicago Street Fight, you got it.
04:25A Kazarian leg drop to Ace Steel.
04:29Beautiful.
04:30There's the cover, hook to the leg, and a kick out by Ace Steel.
04:34A grounded pound by Kazarian.
04:37Kazarian relentless. Here's the thing, Ace Steel picked this fight.
04:42I hope he's ready to finish it. I can tell you Frankie Kazarian is.
04:46And now, Kazarian is going under the ring.
04:49Just littering the canvas with weaponry.
04:53Heads up there, Daniel Spencer.
04:56Oh, Kazarian just tackling Ace Steel.
05:03And see, all kings rule a little differently.
05:07Sometimes, you don't spare the rod.
05:11Sometimes, you don't spare the rod.
05:15You gotta show your people, you gotta show everyone exactly why you're on top.
05:23Steel chair to the spine.
05:30What is going through the head of Kazarian here?
05:33Here you go.
05:35Oh, and a power slam using the chair.
05:42And the king surveying what he has done here in Chicago.
05:52Frankie Kazarian proud of his handiwork.
05:55Knows he's got an opportunity in the road to Slammiversary qualifying matches.
06:00Oh, and off the rebound, the steel chair smashing Kaz in the face.
06:06Gravity working against Kaz there in a bad, bad way.
06:11He is definitely not going to look like Antonio Banderas now.
06:15How dare you? He's looked better than him his entire career.
06:20As Ace Steel now looks to turn this matchup around,
06:24taking advantage of that slingshot chair.
06:27Oh, rushed into the corner there. Kazarian able to evade it.
06:31Steel went hard with a turnbuck on a kendo stick right to the lower back.
06:35A kidney shot, I believe.
06:37Kazarian now laying out the punishment once again
06:41in this Chicago street fight here on TNA Impact.
06:50And the onslaught continues by Frankie Kazarian on Chicago's own.
06:55Ace Steel, this is a Chicago street fight.
06:58No countouts, no disqualifications.
07:00The only way to win is via pinfall or submission.
07:03And it's been all Frankie Kazarian through the commercial break.
07:07Now just continuing to punish.
07:11Right into the arm, right into the face there.
07:13And Kaz, you see now.
07:17Smashing the left hand of Steel.
07:19And now Kaz has a clear target.
07:21Look at this, wrapping the arm.
07:26Tying it up in that chair.
07:30And look, he's punished.
07:31Steel meets Steel here.
07:33Look out.
07:34Oh, no, no, no.
07:35He's going for the leg drop.
07:36Was trying to snap the hand of Ace Steel in the chair.
07:40Ooh.
07:42Ace Steel looking to turn things around.
07:44Ace Steel, who has been coaching and helped support Joe Hendry
07:49over the last few weeks.
07:50Many have seen it on social media.
07:53Oh, Ace Steel put Kazarian on his backside and against all odds
07:57after Kaz tried to take liberties with Hendry after their matchup
08:02in which Kaz cheated to win.
08:05And on top of that, a little extra incentive
08:08after this past Tuesday night on NXT.
08:10Frankie Kazarian and the rest of the field in the Battle Royal that night
08:15making sure to eliminate Joe Hendry immediately.
08:19Frankie Kazarian went on to the final four of that number one contender's
08:23Battle Royal.
08:26Ace Steel feeling the effects of this matchup.
08:29Oh, it's been a minute since he had himself a sanctioned match
08:32in professional wrestling.
08:33Diving right into the deep end here in TNA.
08:36That's what I'm saying.
08:38Surprised he's been able to last this long against somebody
08:41the caliber of Frankie Kazarian.
08:43But that speaks to the will of Ace Steel.
08:46I'll give him that.
08:47Beating the hell out of Kaz in the corner.
08:49Kazarian, we learned early on tonight, is going to be a part of the road
08:52to Slammiversary qualifying matches.
08:55Competitors will be joining the TNA world champion Moose
08:59in a six-way elimination match for the world title
09:03at Slammiversary live on pay-per-view in TNA Plus in Montreal
09:07on Saturday, July 20th.
09:09The neckbreaker delivered by Steel.
09:12Well, if it's up to Ace Steel.
09:15Here's the cover.
09:16Is it over?
09:17On a kickout.
09:18If it's up to Steel here, Frankie Kazarian won't make it to that
09:21road to Slammiversary qualifying match.
09:23Oh, the first qualifying match goes down tonight in our main event.
09:26It's Alexander versus Young.
09:28That's still to come.
09:29Also, the new associate and ally, I suppose, of the system,
09:34Johnny Dango Curtis, faces Ryan Nemeth later on
09:37as Kazarian was going for the chicken wing there on Steel.
09:41Great counter there by Ace Steel.
09:43Able to get away from the very dangerous chicken wing, but look out.
09:47Slingshot DDT.
09:48Kaz scrambles for a cover.
09:50Hook to the leg here.
09:52And a kickout by Steel.
09:54Also still to come tonight, Ash by Elegance is in action.
09:57And in this very ring, we will see PCO and Steph DeLandre's first date.
10:03A far cry from what we're seeing right now.
10:05Yeah, I don't know what's going to be nasty or that
10:07or what's happening right now in the ring.
10:10A chicken wing with the kendo stick.
10:13Oh!
10:14And Steel with the low blow.
10:16It's perfectly legal in a Chicago street fight.
10:19Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
10:22That's a new low for Ace Steel.
10:24Boy, you move the goalposts all the time.
10:29Hold on.
10:30Just call it like I see it.
10:31Look at that chair still in the hands of Ace Steel.
10:34Look out.
10:35Oh!
10:36Face first.
10:39Kazarian punishing him.
10:46Now what is on the mind of the king of TNA?
10:52That's Steel.
10:53Oh, God.
10:54Oh, God.
10:55Wait a minute.
10:56Look at the chairs they're set up.
10:57Frankie Kazarian going for fade to black onto Steel chairs.
11:01Good night.
11:04Kazarian wins the Chicago street fight.
11:08Here's your winner, Frankie Kazarian.
11:12Oh, you pick a fight with a king.
11:15You better be ready to face the gallows.
11:18And that's exactly what happened to Ace Steel.
11:20And Kazarian has got himself a victory,
11:23propelling him forward into his road to Slammiversary qualifying
11:27matchup in the coming weeks, where he will go one-on-one
11:30with Mike Santana.
11:32Hold on.
11:33Wait a minute.
11:34Oh, and another application of the chicken wing
11:36here by Frankie Kazarian, saying that he did to Hendry.
11:39Oh!
11:40Oh, go.
11:41Hold on now.
11:42I believe in Joe Hendry.
11:46Joe Hendry looking for some payback from against Salah
11:50at NXT.
11:52Standing ovation to Kazarian.
11:59Save his name and he will be yours.
12:02The world believes in Joe Hendry.
12:05It is my destiny.
12:07It is the truth I seek.
12:10In this world I'll find a way to cross the line.
