The highlight of this hard-hitting match was Doering driving Gallows through the entrance stage. It was a good \u201cbig man\u201d match and I look forward to seeing Doering in future singles action outside of his tag team commitments.<\/p>\n<h3>Match of the Week: Josh Alexander vs. Jake Something<\/h3>\n<p>This X Division showdown was the highlight of the Emergence special. After almost 20 minutes of exciting action, the champion put Jake away with the piledriver for the win. Alexander continued his excellent title reign. Jake had a breakthrough performance that will hopefully lead to more airtime.<\/p>\n<h3>Impact TV Results (8\/19\/21):<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Sami Callihan &amp; Chris Sabin beat Moose &amp; Ace Austin<\/li>\n<li>Matt Cardona beat Shera<\/li>\n<li>Melina beat Brandi Lauren<\/li>\n<li>Jake Something beat Kaleb with a K<\/li>\n<li>Joe Doering beat Doc Gallows<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Emergence Results (8\/20\/21):<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Matt Cardona beat Rohit Raju<\/li>\n<li>Decay beat Tasha Steelz, Savannah Evans, Fallah Bahh, and No Way<\/li>\n<li>Steve Maclin beat Petey Williams<\/li>\n<li>Madison Rayne beat Taylor Wilde<\/li>\n<li>Ace Austin beat Sami Callihan &amp;
