The “Buy-In” starts off with the preview “Road to Double or Nothing”
promos that aired on TNT Friday night.
Of note, the promo for MJF-Warlow as not removed on the “Buy In.”
Take that for what it’s worth, I guess.
The Acclaimed and the Ass Boys come out for a Double or Nothing
inspired freestyle.
Eddie Kingston cuts an excellent promo about Jericho throwing fire
in his face. He takes a shot and says he’s trying to drown his
demons again. He says he doesn’t want to do the match anymore
because he is terrified of what he will do to Jericho tonight. He
says Jericho is bringing the demon out of him again. He says he
drinks to drown the demons but they know how to swim.

and Nese tries to tag out but Sterling bails. HOOK starts tossing
Nese around with throws and suplexes. Sterling pats Nese on the back
and the ref counts that’s a tag. HOOK tosses Sterling around and
then Suplexes Nese. He hits a T-Bone Suplex on Sterling and sets up
for Redrum but Danhausen wants a tag instead. Danhausen tags in and
covers Sterling with one boot and gets the pin.

were holding Wardlow in a holding cell backstage that they use for
people arrested in the casino before the match.

hands. ****1/2)
