TNA Genesis Results!!

TNA Genesis Opener

There was no dark match before tonight’s TNA Genesis pay-per-view. Before fans were let into the iMPACT Zone, Jay Lethal and Tara signed autographs and took photos with the fans. WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart was directing traffic for the signing.

We open the show with a video package highlighting the main feuds heading into tonight's event. The pyro hits and Mike Tenay welcomes us to TNA's first big live event of 2011. He immediately begins hyping the main event, and the title implications for Fortune tonight. It looks like we'll be opening the show with the X Division Title match, as Kazarian makes his way out to the ring.


TNA X Division Championship Match

Jay Lethal (c) vs. Kazarian

Lethal is out next to a big pop from the Impact Zone crowd. He stares Kaz down as he makes his way into the ring. Lethal chases Kaz outside o the ring and back in, hitting a big hurricarana and mounting Kaz, raining down on him with punches. Lethal picks Kaz up and hits him with a big chop and a hip toss but Kaz rolls to the outside. Lethal follows him with a big suicide dive.

Kaz gets up and goes to throw Lethal into the ring apron, but Lethal hops up on the apron and moonsaults off on top of Kaz. Back in the ring, Lethal gets a near fall and follows it up with a hip toss/dropkick combo. Lethal hits Kaz with a big chop in the corner, and follows up with another, but when he tries to send Kaz across the ring, it's turned around and Lethal ends up going shoulder first into the turnbuckle.

Kaz and Lethal trade blows and Lethal catches Kaz's leg, knocking him to his back and slingshotting him into the corner. Lethal hits a big dropkick and it's good for another near fall. Lethal picks Kaz up and drops him right back down with a giant back suplex that's good for another two count. Lethal tosses Kaz into the ropes but he eats a back elbow and a big spinebuster from Kaz to turn the momentum. Kaz mounts Lethal and rains down with punches of his own.

Kaz goes up after him, but Lethal fights him off with elbows and a big sunset flip powerbomb that's still only good enough for two. Kaz gets up and walks right into an enzugiri and a Lethal combination. Lethal pins Kaz but still only gets a two count and Lethal looks distraught. Lethal tries for a pile driver but Kaz fights out of it, not hitting anything. Kaz rolls out to the apron and comes back in with a slingshot DDT. Kaz puts his feet on the ropes for a cover but Lethal still kicks out at two.

TNA World Heavyweight Title Match

Mr. Anderson vs. (C) Jeff Hardy

Hardy comes back into the ring and tries for the twist of hate, but Anderson fights it off, connects with the mic check, and pins Hardy for the three count as members of Fortune are running down the ramp.
