Last week, Kurt Angle kicked off a Tag Team Tournament to showcase TNA's tremendous tag team division and crown new #1 Contenders for The Wolves. Of the 8 teams that entered, only four remain and the semi-finals will go down this Wednesday night on IMPACT!
The Hardys vs EC3 & Tyrus
The Hardys kicked off the tournament last week in impressive fashion, knocking out the Bro Mans, Jessie Godderz and DJZ, in the night's opening contest. When the Hardys reunited this summer in NYC, they vowed to capture the Tag Team Titles and they are clearly not stopping until they get another opportunity to do so! EC3 & Tyrus are a brand new pairing that is already causing chaos throughout the TNA locker room. The team, and so-called best friends, took out EC3's former best friend Rockstar Spud and Showtime Eric Young in the opening round of the contest.
You could say that the winners of this matchup are the favorites in the finals... but just look at who the other teams are:
Samoa Joe & Low Ki vs MVP & Kenny King
The pairing of Samoa Joe and Low Ki was a surprise to many, as the two have become fierce rivals in the X-Division. However, the two made themselves a powerhouse team and proved that they work well together by nabbing a big win in the first round of the tournament. MVP & Kenny King have been working together for a while now and looked unstoppable in their match against Chris Melendez & Mr. Anderson. Imagine the power (and boasting) of a faction that contains TNA World Heavyweight Champion Lashley and Tag Champs Kenny King & MVP? Depending on where your allegiances lie, that is either incredibly exciting... or terrifying.
These four teams will clash this Wednesday night at 9/8c on Spike TV and the two winning teams will move on to the finals, with one team earning a shot at The Wolves. Who is your pick to win it all?
