TNA - Wrestling Matters

workhorse review

Before I start, I'll just say that while I don't watch TNA regularly, I do keep fairly up to date with spoilers/results so I will have a fair idea with whats going on but I'll keep it short.

First off, I love the way you wrote the show, it was short and sharp but all segments had meaning.

Nice way to start off the show with Bischoff. He pumped up TNA and cut a good promo. Matt Morgan appearance I like. As JAM said, a feud with the boss or even someone like AJ will propel him up the ranks so I'll watch where this one goes.

I wont go into detail with all the matches but I will say that while a few where short, they were enjoyable to read so well done. The mainevent, Joe vs Ki was really good and I enjoyed that. As I said I'm not TNA's biggest fan but I like what you've got going, it was an enjoyable read. Overall I think you've got some great guys to work with, some good feuds brewing and I hope to be able to read more!

Well done and good luck,
WH

The final Impact before Victory Road begins with a huge roar from the sold out crowd as down the ramp and to the ring stomps the TNA World Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe. He has the title belt over his shoulder, his trademark towel over his head and he seems to be dressed for battle. He steps into the ring and soaks up the “Joe! Joe! Joe!” chnats from the enormous crowd. Joe waits till the chants die down to take the towel off his face to reveal a very bad black eye. The fans collectively winced at the sight of it, as Joe nods and tells the fans to look up at the big screen to see the end of last week’s episode where Desmond Wolfe attacks Joe. Then wraps the title belt around his bicep and using it with the Jawbreaker Lariat then levels Joe in the face knocking him out!

The fans boo as Joe nods again. He says that Desmond Wolfe has thrown down the gauntlet and at Victory Road there will be no quarter shown. He will not be merciful, he will show no remorse, as Wolfe has just signed his death warrant. At Victory Road, the road to Bound For Glory, Wolfe will find out exactly who he has just messed with. Because now Wolfe, it’s more than just about the title. It’s about blood and Joe’s gonna kill you.

The wolf howls and out walks a suited up Wolfe with Chelsea on his arm. The Brit has a big smile on his face as the gorgeous girl hands him a mic. Wolfe smiles and is about to talk but the boos are almost deafening from the crowd. Wolfe cracks his neck, shifts shoulders and clears his throat. Wolfe replies, “Words… Joe that’s all they are but words. Everyone knows you can’t beat me. You know it and I know it. Even if you weren’t a physical wreck, but you are from all your title defences. But even if you weren’t. You aint a match for me sunshine. You aint got what it takes to beat Desmond Wolfe. I’ve been waiting a long time for this, and finally I’ve got my shot at the World title. A shot I’ve earned since day one around here. You wont bulldoze me Joe, you don’t intimidate me, you don’t scare me, you’ve got no offence I can’t counter, you’ve got no defence I can’t break. I’m gonna end ya. And I’m gonna be Heavyweight Champion of the World ”.

Joe looks up at Wolfe who is safely up on the ramp, and tells him that he didn’t understand a word he said and for him to come down into the ring so he can hear him clearer. Wolfe smiles and tells Joe that’s not going to happen. He suggests Joe go home and rest up before he gets even more hurt before his big match this Sunday on ppv. Joe tells Wolfe he’s a deadman, and if he wont come down here, he’ll go up there.

Joe drops the mic and walks up the ramp to meet Wolfe but Jarrett leads out security and gets between the two men who will main event Victory Road this Sunday. Joe is not pleased with Jarrett and tells him so with some very colourful language. Security keeps the two men a part as Jarrett rolls into the ring with a mic. He says that tonight’s main event will be a tag team match. And each man gets to choose his partner. Good luck gentlemen.

Match #1
Kid Kash and Gunner w/ Isaiah Cash vs. Generation Me


The first time these two teams faced each other Gen Me defeated the tattooed gladiators due to being part of a cohesive unit. But now after several matches under their belts, the powerhouse Gunner has joined well with the guile of Kash and the two vicious competitors have notched up huge wins to make them the #1 contenders to the Tag Belts this Sunday at Victory Road.

They take it to the youngsters, but the speed and inventiveness of the explosive youngsters bring the fans to their feet as they hit amazing move after move. But it only takes one to turn the tide and when the gigantic Isaiah gets up on the apron, it distracts Max Buck just enough to be almost cut in half by Gunner’s spear! Gunner then takes Jeremy out and tags Kash in to hit the Impaler pile driver for the victory.

Winners: Kash and Gunner

The #1 Contenders give the sign of the belts as the son of anarchy, Isaiah Cash picks up both Bucks with a double chokeslam planting them into the mat sending a message to the already concerned Tag Champions, Shelley and Sabin…

Backstage Desmond Wolfe and Chelsea are asked who they will select as their partner tonight. Wolfe says that it is obvious that Joe will no doubt pick one of his boyfriends from the Fragile 3. So he will pick a man who beat the living hell out of Joe, and the Champion didn’t want anymore to do with him by declining him a rematch. Tonight by my side I choose a man who hates Joe more than I do, the seven foot tall Blueprint, Matt Morgan! Wolfe finished by saying that if Joe thought he was going into Victory Road banged up but ok, just wait till tonight’s main event is over after he and Morgan destroy him.

Match #2
The Pope D’Angelo Dinero vs. X Division Champion Low Ki


Low Ki has another chance to get a warm up match under his belt before his first title defence in three months against Austin Aries this Sunday. Last week he went strike for strike with the World’s Champion and tonight he takes on The Pope, the man embroiled in a feud with RVD over who is the most popular superstar on the TNA roster.

The fans are firmly behind Pope as he take sit to the vicious animalistic Ki. Pope troubles Ki early on by stringing his signature (and very popular) moves togther to have Ki down. The flying shoulder block, the coronation and then the 4 Up combo is all followed by the Pimp Slap, as Pope pulls down his kneepads to deliver the brutal DDExpress. But Ki is able to avoid it and dish out stiff shots of his own.

In an amazing back and forth match, Ki ducks a clothesline and bouncing off the ropes blasts Pope in the chest with a double bicycle kick! Pope flies through the air and into the turnbuckles. Ki then drags him out of the corner by his hair and then climbs high and comes down with the Warriors Way! But Pope rolls out fo the way at the last second. Low Ki rolls with the momentum and Pope knocks him down with clotheslines. Pope has the fans behind him as he looks to finish again, but out walks RVD. Pope trash talks Van Dam, but he turns right into a kick in the head. 1.2.3.

Winner: Low Ki

The viciousness of Ki’s kick knocks the Pope out and sends a message to Aries just how potent they are. RVD shrugs his shoulders an smiles as he walks to the back to a mixed cheer from the fans.

Backstage World Champion Samoa Joe is with AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels. He is asked will it be just as Wolfe predicted and be one of your stable mates tagging with him tonight. Joe says there is no one I trust more than these two men. And since AJ will shut Matt Morgan’s mouth once and for all at Victory Road, then I can think of no better person. AJ says that Morgan thinks he should be World Champion. Well AJ Styles has been Champion, he knows what it takes to become Champion and he’s going to show Matt Morgan exactly what being a Champion is.

Out to the ring walks the TNA Founder Jeff Jarrett to a huge ovation. He runs down the card for Victory Road:

World title match Joe vs Wolfe
Unification X Division match Low Ki vs Aries
AJ vs Morgan
Hardy vs Daniels
Danielson vs Petey
World Tag title match MCMGs vs Kash/Gunner
KO title match Flash vs. Kong vs. Gail vs. Tara
Hernandez vs Masters​

But he is interrupted by the Knock Out’s Champion Alissa Flash. She walks into the ring and Jarrett is surprised by this ballsy move from the Champ. She looks at Jeff and asks bluntly who is she facing at Victory Road? She says that Jarrett has held her back long enough and will not be disrespected by a man. Men are inferior to women and men wrestlers are inferior to the Knock Outs. She is the alpha female in TNA and demands Jarrett put her ina key spot at Victory Road. Jarrett says he agrees with just about everything she’s said. Sort of. Almost. Kinda… Jarrett says he was just getting to the KO’s title match before she stormed out her in a huff. So at Victory Road it will be Alissa Flash the Knock Out’s Champion of the World defending her title against… Gail Kim!

And Tara!

And Awesome Kong! In a fatal four way match…. Flash is beside herself as Jarrett tells her to choke on that. Jarrett leaves the ring as Flash is left screaming in a temper tantrum.

Back from commercial and Jeff Jarrett’s door has been busted into by several superstars wanting to know what their status is concerning Victory Road and more importantly Bound For Glory. Jarrett tells the men to calm down and says he’ll add another match to Victory Road. T will be called the Road to Glory match. It will be a gauntlet match. In the match it will include but not be limited to Bobby Lashley, James Storm, Kazarian, Magnus, Robert Roode, and Abyss. The winner will be one of the competitors in a number one contender’s match to decide who will face the World Champion at Bound For Glory. He wishes them all good luck as we go back to ringside.

Match #3
Non-title match
World Tag Champions MCMGs w/ The Beautiful People vs. Jeff Hardy and Abyss w/ James Mitchell


The Champions walk out and say that the tag division is as furious and competitive as ever, and that has a lot to do with them being Champions. They defeated AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels to prove they are not only the vey best tag team in the world, but the best wrestlers in the world. Kash and Gunner do not scare them and tonight Hardy and Abyss should be the ones who are scared.

Out walks the menacing team of the monster Abyss and the Anti-Christ of Pro-Wrestling Jeff Hardy, led to the ring by the sinister minister, Father James Mitchell. The Guns’ body language though don’t seem to back up their words when they almost hide behind their girlfriends… Abyss snorts while Hardy as always seems bored when he gets into the ring. He has the monster start things off, and the bell sounds. The Guns rely on quick tags to attack the big man’s knees, but his power puts them down each time. He tags in Hardy who hits them with move after move. The Guns scurry for cover as Mitchell laughs on the outside at the reigning Champions.

Sabin though fires up and takes it to Hardy with some spectacular high flying getting the Champs back into the match. The amazing lightning quick double teams the Guns are known for comes into play as they explode hitting Hardy and Abyss with everything they’ve got. Sabin and Shelley both try to whip Abyss into the ropes, but he shows his power and blocks it, making the Guns run into each other. Hardy on the apron slaps the turnbuckle pad for Abyss to make the tag. But sliding under the ring ropes is Kash and Gunner who attack the Champs giving the ref no choice but to throw the match out.

Winner via DQ: The Motor City Machine Guns.

Hardy and Abyss don’t care too much and walk off up the ramp as Gunner and Kash hit their finishers on the champs. The big Isaiah Cash then rolls in and delivers another double chokeslam just like he did earlier to Gen Me. The #1 Contenders grab the titles and raise them in the air. Up the ramp Hardy and Abyss don’t even bother to turn around, but they should have as the Fallen Angel Christopher Daniels jumps over the guard rail and catches Mitchell who was trailing behind them with a forearm shot. Daniels hits Angels Wings on Mitchell on the steel ramp!!!!

Daniels then grabs a microphone and stands up on the commentators table. He tells Hardy that Victory Road the Anti-Christ will be no match for the Fallen Angel. If Hardy thinks he is some sort of bad ass, well wait till Sunday when Daniels shows him just how devious, how maniacal he can be! Abyss quickly runs to check on his master while Hardy stand atop the stage eyeballing Daniels as the Fallen Angel’s music hits to take us into the commercial break.

Mike Tenay then tells us that during the week he had a sit down interview with both the American Dragon Bryan Danielson and the Canadian Destroyer Petey Williams.

Tenay sits between the two men and they have been warned by Jarrett that there will be no violence or they will be suspended and fined. Tenay says that this will be the third time that these men have met inside the ring and both times Danielson has won, Petey has returned from an injury sustained during his feud ending war with Kurt Angle. How will he fair this time against Danielson? Petey responds by saying that Canadians are the very best in this sport. He says that he is faster, he is better technically, and no one gets up from the Canadian Destroyer.

Tenay says that Danielson has been dominant here in TNA how will he approach the match. Dragon looks across at Petey and says that he is not a one trick pony like his opponent. He can beat Williams 100s of ways and he will show the world why people have been calling him the best in the world. Danielson says he is a proud American, but he isn’t going to use racist propaganda to say that his country produces the better athletes, he just knows that when it comes to Danielson vs. Williams, he will be the victor. It isn’;t country vs. country it is him vs. Petey and he will make him tap out.

Williams feels insulted and pushes over his chair and gets in Danielson’s face. Tenay gets in between them, so Petey slaps Mike Tenay, and tells the “filthy American” to take his hands off him. He says that ever since he stood up to Americans he has been feared because they are scared of the truth, and this Sunday at victory Road, he will be victorious. Petey rips off his lapel mic and walks off the set saying this interview is over…


Match #4
Rob Van Dam vs. Austin Aries


RVD’s tactics over the last month have made the fans slowly turn against him. He has always been arrogant and very sure of himself, but he has very much disliked the fact that Pope has been trying to upstage him. Tonight he faces the Interim X Division Champion that no doubt RVD will think the same. The match is an absolute high flyers dream as the two men bounce off the ropes to deliver high impact strikes and moves.

RVD tries his rolling thunder but Aries gets the knees up. Aries looks for his Pendulum Elbow but he gets is legs sweeped. Each man counters the others’ signature moves with great effect. Rob looks for the monkey flip out of the corner, but Aries is able to hit a dropkick to stop it. Aries looks for the 450 Splash but Rob gets a foot up striking Aries in the jaw! Rob goes for the 5 Star but Aries moves, punts Rob in the head and nails the brainbuster for a very long 2 count! Rob fires back but Aries just keeps coming and when A Double kicks out of the Split-Legged Moonsault, a frustrated RVD grabs a chair throws it at Aries. When Aries catches the chair, Rob nails the Van Daminator! The ref DQs Rob as Austin looks to be out!

Winner via DQ: Austin Aries

Rob goes up top for a 5 Star but the Pope runs out and clears the ring. Rob backs away warning Pope that this Sunday he’ll get the last laugh.


Backstage Chris Masters is interviewed about his match with Shawn Hernandez this Sunday. Masters says that he came into TNA knowing that was ready for the big time and it was his time to shine. But Hernandez decided to take it upon himself to get in his business. He didn’t go looking for this fight, and Shawn has brought this on himself. So now instead of fighting my way to the top, like planned the Masterpiece will defeat a recent #1 Contender to the World title and put himself in the running very early on in his TNA tenure.

But Masters’ interview is cut short when he is cut down by an attack from behind! Hernandez lays him heavy shots and then power bombs him through a nearby table! Shawn tells him that was a taste of what is to come at Victory Road!


Match #5
James Storm, Bobby Lashley and Amazing Red vs. Robert Roode, Magnus and Kazarian


The six men tag match starts off like most tag matches but all six men have just been informed that they will have to fight each other in the volatile Gauntlet match for a spot in a #1 Contenders match. So when Roode’s team starts to dominate the psychotic Kazarian hits a flying leg drop on his own team mate Magnus! The match all of a sudden breaks down, as Storm superkicks Lashley while Roode grabs a chair and starts hitting everyone in his line of sight. The match breaks down into utter chaos and security ahs to stop the match as it is deemed a no contest!

Main Event
World Champion Samoa Joe and AJ Styles vs. Matt Morgan and Desmond Wolfe w/ Chelsea


Joe starts the match for his team and wants Wolfe, but it is the giant Matt Morgan who wishes to kick things off. The bell rings and Joe can play that game too and AJ tags himself in and we get a ppv preview straight away. AJ dances and strikes, using his speed Styles I s able to stay outside Morgan’s reach with kicks to the legs. Morgan continually is made to look sluggish as Styles keeps using the hit and run tactic. But then Styles explodes he comes off the ropes with a flying forearm and then tags in Joe so when Morgan gets to his feet Joe goes berserk and delivers high impact shots. Clotheslines and then a Samoan Dtrop is followed up by vicious knees to the skull.

Morgan kicks out at 2 and escapes to the outside as Joe goes after him but Chelsea puts herself in harms way allowing for Wolfe to attack! Joe is rolled back in Wolfe makes the tag and goes on the rabid attack. He mauls Joe and looks to damage his arm. Wolfe really looks at hurting Joe as he keeps attacking the elbow. Joe fights back only for Morgan to hit the Carbon Footprint! 1..2.. AJ makes the save! Morgan and AJ then exchange punches and spill out to the floor. The ref is distracted and Chelsea tosses Wolfe a billiard 8 Ball. BOOM! Wolfe smashes Joe right in the temple and covers him for the 3!

Winners: Desmond Wolfe and Matt Morgan

Security again comes down this time to separate Morgan and Styles as Wolfe picks up Chelsea and kisses her standing over an unconscious World Champion….

Jam's Review
Hey GS, another show, you're producing shows really fast. Love it! Anyway, I just wanted to say that I love how simple your thread is. It has enough details in it to really get into what you want us to imagine. So kudos to you for that man. I'll just touch on some things instead of the entire show. Here we go!

In my last review, I said that I didn't really see Wolfe as someone who could defeat Joe but with that devastating Lariat, that was surely impressive. If he hits that, it could be lights out for Joe. You do a good job of building up someone and I commend you on that. What I'm looking forward to is what you do with Roode and Storm. They're in the midcard right now but if you choose one of them to be your star, I'm pretty sure that you will build them up pretty good.

Also, maybe the security and DQ's were kind of overused here. It's a problem with me too when I can't think of anything, I just use these situations to get some storylines moving along so I can't blame you here. I'm interested in your X-Division situation. At Victory Road, we finally get who will be the true champion. Ki vs. Aries should be match of the night in my opinion.

Good booking here having Morgan stay relevant in the World Title picture. I'm still waiting on what'll happen with Morgan as I can really see him as the World Champion. But Joe is really rolling right now, don't take off the title just yet. Overall, I like what you're doing with this thread. Just continue to write because you've got some regulars reading your show. Cheers!
 
SXEnightmare's Review:

Joe and Wolfe segment very well written segment to build up there match even more and now a tag match with each man picking their own partner love it really looking forward to this match.

Gunner and Kid Kash vs Gen Me was rooting for gen me as i always liked them but gunner and kid kash seem to make a good team short match so not really much to say about it although i do have a question for you...who is Isaiah Cash? is it someone well known under a different name or something because i dont recall any wrestler under that name before.

Pope vs Ki good match i was surprised to see low ki pick up the victory but its probably a good thing he did i must say the whole idea of rvd and pope fueding over whos more popular seems stupid to me but seeing as both can wrestle well i expect a good match out of these 2.

MCMG vs Abyss & Hardy good match guns get the victory by DQ after there victory road challengers interfear abyss looked very strong in this match i love the way you book him and daniels vs hardy might be entertaining.

RVD vs Aries woah a RVD heel turn? could be intersting as its never been done but it might take alot to make him a full on heel the match was alright nothing really special but it was good im more intersted to see what you can do with a heel rob van dam.

6 man tag match i really have nothing to say about this sorry.

Wolfe/Morgan vs Joe/Styles good main event further building up both of these matches for victory road i dont get the 8 ball as a weapon thing but maybe thats because this is only my 2nd time reading your work my only compliant here was having another brawl that needed to be seperated by secuirty honestly we got a bit too much of those brawls tonight it was overkill.

Match #1
Jeff Hardy w/ James Mitchell vs. Christopher Daniels


Smoke fills the arena as out crawls like a demon from hell the Anti-Christ of Pro-wrestling, Jeff Hardy. Covered in his demonic make-up he is led to the ring by the Sinister Minister James Mitchell. The boos are deafening as one of the most hated men in TNA stands on the turnbuckles and taunts them. The fans go up as out walks possibly his opposite, the Fallen Angel Christopher Daniels. One of the most technically skilled competitors in the world today, he says he is no saint as he makes his way down to the ring. Before he steps through the ropes he slowly turns to flick Mitchell a grin after he hit him with the Angels Wings on Impact to send a message to Hardy that he is not the only one who knows how to use backhanded means to gain an advantage.

The bell rings and we are under way as Daniels circles Hardy looking for an opportunity to shoot in. Hardy keeps his distance before both men move in and lock up. Daniels immediately grabs a headlock, and pulls at Hardy’s hair. He paintbrushes the top of his head and looks to gouge the eyes. The ref sees this and asks Daniels to break the hold, but Daniels is sending a message to Hardy that he will fight dirtier than him tonight. Daniels releases the hold, only to at the last second pull Hardy’s hair brining him down on the back of his head when he tried to sprint towards the ropes!

Daniels then stands on Hardy’s hair and pulls him up. He releases that on command form the ref but then viciously boots Hardy in the head, smashing his face into the mat! Hardy grabs his face in pain as Daniels licks his finger looks into the camera with a big smile and says “that’s one for me!” and marks it on an imaginary scoreboard in front of him. Hardy is frustrated and his manager talks to him to get him back in the game. Hardy hasn’t seemed to be rattled before, and he may have met his match tonight. They lock up again, this time Hardy looking for the headlock, but Daniels reverses it into a hammerlock and then starts wrenching on the arm. He starts working on it, trying to dislocate the shoulder by pulling down hard on it, then again, this time trying to damage the elbow. He puts it back into the hammerlock and then as quick as a hiccup dropkicks the elbow locked in place sending Hardy crashing head first between the turnbuckles in the corner!

Daniels bows to the fans as they give him a round of applause. He moves in but Hardy mule kicks him low. The ref moves in to see where it hit but Hardy is up and starts laying in heavy closed fists to the forehead of Daniels. Hardy comes of the ropes with a clothesline and then again with a leaping forearm shot. The momentum has changed as Hardy’s rage as been unleashed and he starts stomping on Daniels and then climbs up top and drops a leg drop across the throat! 1..2.. Daniels kicks out as Hardy starts to smile. He waited for his opportunity and now he will take full advantage of it. As Hardy gets to his feet he ignores the ref asking about the low blow, and instead focuses on a picture [perfect drop kick to Daniels’ face! 1..2.. Kick out! Hardy then grabs the legs and hits a jumping leg drop to the gut and then pulls Daniels over and drops down with the Compactor pin cover move. 1..2..2 and ½ .. Daniels barely escapes! Daniels is trying to shake off these attacks as he is now being schooled. Daniels crawls to the ropes, but hardy pulls him back and drops down big forearm shots on him. He then punts him in the ribs while he soaks up the boos.

Hardy looks for a sleeper to finish Daniels, but with the crowd behind him he fights his way back to his feet and elbows his way out of Hardy’s clutches! Hardy tries to relock in the sleeper, but Daniels is able to scoop the Enigma up onto his shoulders and drop him on his head with a Death Valley Driver! 1..2.. hardy kicks out as now Daniels quickly runs up the turnbuckles and hits the Best Moonsault Ever! 1..2… Daniels is dragged off Hardy before the three count!!! The ref jumps out and tells Mitchell that he is now ejected! Mitchell is beside himself and gets in the ref’s face, but he is hit by a plancha through the ropes by a flying angel! Daniels hits him with an forearm and Mitchell is down! Hardy though follows out after him by sailing over the top rope and landing on top of Daniels!

The two men now brawl at ringside as the fans eat it up. They exchange punch for punch until Hardy doesn’t want any more of Daniels and retreats back into the ring. The crowd roars as Hardy though has lured Daniels right into a flying clothesline that almost takes the Fallen Angels’ head off! Hardy brings Daniels to his feet and goes for the Twist of Fate, but Daniels reverses it into Angels Wings, but Hardy counters it back into the Twist, only for Daniels to counter it yet again into a face buster takedown, that gets transitioned instantly into the Koji Clutch! Hardy is caught and he reaches out for the ropes struggling to get there. Daniels locks it in tighter and cries out for Hardy to submit. Hardy though has the presence of mind to roll Daniels to his left and his shoulders are down. 1..2.. Daniels quickly releases the hold to avoid the pin. Hardy rolls to the floor for safety as Daniels goes out after him. But Hardy is ready and grabs the tights and pulls him forward into the steel steps! A trickle of blood falls from Daniels’ forehead as he gets to his feet dazed. He turns just as Hardy runs up the steel steps and somersaults right on his head!

Hardy rolls into the ring and tells the ref to count Daniels out. Daniels was crushed under the full weight of Hardy and he landed badly on his head and neck. The ref is up to 6 as Daniels stirs and then comes the count of 9.. but Daniels is able to slip in under the ropes to the cheer of the sold out crowd. Hardy can’t believe it and quickly runs up the turnbuckles to hit the Whisper in the Wind but Daniels steps back and catches Hardy with a powerbomb in mid air! 1..2… hardy kicks out! Daniels then hits the Blue Thunder Driver!!! 1..2.. Hardy kicks out! Daniels stands ready shaking off the pain and dizziness and hits an enzaguri, and then a flying knee forcing Hardy into the turnbuckles. Hardy stumbles out of the corner and is planted into the mat by an STO! 1..2… Kick out! Daniels slaps the mat in frustration as he quickly underhooks Hardy’s arms looking to finish with the Angels Wings, but Hardy drops down to a knee to block it. So hardy quickly turns him and hits the Last Rites!!!

Hardy kicks out! The fans can’t believe it and neither can Daniels. He stands up ready to strike one more time, but hardy slides out of the ring and goes reaches for a steel chair. He folds it up, but Daniels grabs it off him and throws it to the ground only to be caught between the eyes with a big right hand. And then smashed in the chest with dropkick to the sternum! Daniels is forced backwards and crashes the back of his head into the ring post. Hardy rolls Daniels back in and Hardy climbs the turnbuckles and comes down with the Swanton Bomb!

Winner: Jeff Hardy

Hardy gets his hand raised, but he takes exception to the ref, after all, it was he who ejected his manager Mitchell. Twist of Fate to the ref! hardy rolls out of the ring and grabs the chair and this time uses it. He brings it down across the back of the ref! He then grabs the edge of it and drives it into the spine of Christopher Daniels! Daniels bows up in pain and rolls to floor. Security and other referees come out and surround the ring. The pull both men out of harms way. AJ Styles comes down as well to check on his friend as Hardy stand in the middle of the ring and demands a microphone. Mitchell with a maniacal grin walks out onto the top of the stage, and says “Tell them Jeff, tell them all what we spoke about!!!”

Hardy looks around at the damage he has caused as refs and security check on the two men he has attacked. “I am the Anti-Christ of Professional Wrestling. No one will stop me from taking back what is mine and that is MY gold. But before I take my gold, I first must have blood. And not just anyone’s blood, the blood of an Icon. Sting! Sting, wherever you are, at Bound For Glory you will come to me, and I will end your career on the grandest stage, at Bound For Glory. I will take your career, leaving no one to stop me from once again becoming Immortal and forging the World Championship in my image. See you soon Stinger, see you very soon!”

Hardy’s music plays and he stares past all the staff trying to help the two men. Styles wants to fight Hardy and the two share a stare down, but he stays with his friend as the Evil Enigma joins with Mitchell at the top of the walk way and disappear to the backstage area…

The commentary team can’t believe what they have just witnessed. An amazing match up between two of the best in the business and then Hardy shows Daniels his sinister side and tacks not only him post match but a referee. He then in a pre-meditated move, challenges Sting for a match at Bound For Glory arrogantly inferring that he can with World title anytime after he ends Sting’s career, and adding that to his trophy case.

Match #2
Fatal Four way Knockout’s Championship Match
Champion Alissa Flash vs. Gail Kim vs. Awesome Kong vs. Tara


All four Knockouts are in the ring and the bell sounds, Flash snatches the title off the ref before he can remove it from the ring, and she gets in all three of her challengers and screams at them saying she is the champ and they can’t do a damn thing. Big mistake, as she is set upon by three of the toughest Kos in TNA history! She is speared by Tara, Kong drops down and starts laying him huge rights and lefts. Gail hits a moonsault on her and then all three start laying in the boots.

Flash seems to be out and Tara quickly goes for the pin, but Kong breaks It up. They argue and start pushing each other as Gail scurries in for the pin, but Tara breaks it up. Kong kicks Flash out of the ring like a bag of trash and she hits the floor with a thudd! The three then battle to find out who is to be the next Champion. Gail and Tara don’t get any where working against each other with Kong’s power, so they team up and put Kong down.

Match #3
Shawn Hernandez vs. Chris Masters


Hernandez has taken offence to the arrival of the Masterpiece in TNA. Masters defeated Kazarian in his debut match last month and flexed his muscles and spoke of the power he possess. Shawn arguably the strongest man in TNA didn’t take kindly to the new guy’s boasts and set about attacking him.

Masters comes out first and does a big pose down. Hernandez is livid and as he gets in the ring, he pushes Masters and gets in his face. He then flexes his biceps, only to be punched in the mouth as the ref rings the bell to start the match!

Masters tees off on Hernandez’s jaw, and the whips him off the ropes and drops him with a big clothesline! Masters flexes again to get the crowd especially the girls on his side. Dez tries to shake it off but Masters catches him with a snap suplex and then floats over with a cover. Dez kicks out at 2 and then gets to his feet and quickly hits Masters with a big knee lift. He then hits a clothesline of his own, rips off his singlet and throws it around Masters’ throat and then biels him across the ring! It is Shawn’s turn now to flex and pose as Masters grabs his lower back in pain.

Shawn drops the elbow into he back and then again, and again. He then in a display of power lifts him off the mat with a gut wrench and slams him on the lower back again! Masters is in trouble as Dez lays forearms hots into the lower back as the Masterpiece uses the ropes to get to his feet.. Dez looks to whip Masters off the ropes, but his legs don’t seem to be working due to the lower back being hurt and he stumbles and falls. Dez climbs the turnbuckles and looks for a big splash to finish, but Chris moves out of the way at the last second. Dez crashes and burns and the ref starts his ten count.

Masters reaches for his back and desperately tries to get to his feet. Dez slowly shakes off the miss and gets up. Both men get up together at 8 and then exchange punches. Dez lays one in only for it to be blocked by Masters who lays in one of his own. Dez tries again, but it is blocked again and Masters blasts him with a two right hands, sending him into the ropes and then whipped off. Dez on the rebound runs right into a belly to belly overhead suplex! Masters drops to a knee grabbing his lower back after such a move and then makes the cover 1..2..kickout at 2 and half. Masters took too long to cover the man.

Hernandez gets back up and catches Masters with a thumb to the eye and hits a huge delayed vertical suplex. The blood runs to Masters’ head for what seems like an eternity before Shawn drops it down and Masters bows up as his back is in real pain now. 1..2… Masters can no longer kick out and he just lifts the shoulder. Dez again covers him like a pitbull, and Masters again escapes at 2. Dez attempts a third and Masters must kick out this time and he barely does, but it does damage. Dez lifts him up does the slash the throat sign and then goes for the Border Toss, but Masters slips out the back and counters with a neckbreaker.

Masters taps the mat with his foot to get the crowd behind him and he gets to his feet. Dez gets up only to be hit with a lifting sit out spinebuster! 1..2.. Dez kicks out! Masters keeps his focus and with the fans cheering him he swoops in to apply the Masterlock! He brings Dez to his feet with one big show of power and then clasps his hands and starts applying the enormous amount of pressure. Dez knows he only has one chance and lifts his leg catching Masters with a low blow. Chris releases the hold and grabs his crotch as the referee is forced to call for the bell.

Winner via DQ Chris Masters

The ref gets in Hernandez’s face who is obviously hurting from the submission hold. He pie faces the ref and then kicks Masters again in the groin! Masters drops to both knees and Dez then hits the Border Toss launching Masters into the turnbuckles! He folds up like a cheap suit and hits the mat hard. Dez spits on Masters before tumbling through the ropes to the floor and walks off. He starts telling the fans he is the man, and that Masters is nothing. Look who is laying on the mat and look who is walking away… Masters doesn’t look like the winner as Hernandez’s frustrations and fear of the Masterlock caused him to do what he did.

Backstage the World Tag Team Champions and their valets the Beautiful People prepare to defend their title against Kash and Gunner. Christy asks the Guns if they are ready to once again face these two guys after they were brutally beat down on Impact. Love and Sky get in Christy’s face and tell her to run along and not to bother the best in the world with stupid questions. Sky snatches the microphone from Hemme and Love pushes out of view. Sky puts the microphone in her cleavage and stands in the middle of Shelley and Sabin to cut their promo. Sabin says that when Kash and Gunner attacked them, it was a desperate move from an average team. They were hoping to injure the Guns because they know they cannot beat them at 100%. Well the jokes on Kash and Gunner because they couldn’t beat one of them at 50%. So tonight, Detroit’s heroes the Motor City Machine Guns will go out and once again prove why they are the very best this business has ever seen.

Match #4
World Tag Team Title Match
Champions the Motor City Machine Guns w/ The Beautiful People vs.,. Kid Kash and Gunner w/ Isaiah Cash


The Guns and TBPs do their very provocative entrance to get the crowd revved up for the title match but they are attacked before the bell can sound by the heel Kash and Gunner. The girls have to quickly jump out of the ring as the powerhouses look to beat the champs early on and not allow them to gather themselves.

They throw Sabin from the ring and he crashes all the way to the floor with a thud, as they start working Shelley over. Shelley though comes back with kicks to the chest of both men, and nearly breaks through Kash's chest with one big kick. Alex then dropkicks him out to the floor. But Gunner hits a big boot to the face to get a count of 1. Gunner then using his power starts laying in shot after shot to the temple of Shelley as the ref calls for him to stop as it is with a closed fist. Gunner has blood on his knuckles as he moves to hoist Shelley up for an F-5.

Shelley counters the move into a DDT and looks for his partner for help. Sabin though is still down as Shelley lines up Gunner and nails a super kick for a 2 count! Kash tags in and comes off the ropes with a shoulder block, but Shelley and Kash do a fast paced back and forth and Kash again takes Alex down with a shoulder block. Shelly rolls outside to break the momentum, and check on his partner. Sabin is ok, and Shelly comes back only to be muscled into the corner and then gets tared into with a hard chop. Shelley dodges a charge and hits a flying head scissors, then gets a snap suplex for 2. Alex then follows up with a charging forearm in the corner and Kash crumples to the mat, Shelley covers but Kash is out at 1. They go back to the corner where Shelley scores with a knee to the breadbasket, but Kash pushes away with a mule kick and Sabin gets the blind tag and explodes off the ropes with a tornado DDT! 1..2… Gunner makes the save! The ref gets Gunner out of the ring as Sabin and Kash have an insane chop exchange, with Sabin winning early on before Kash scores with a stiff enzaguri to the back of Sabin’s head!

Sabin kicks out at 2 and Kash gets in the ref’s face. Quick tag to Gunner and Sabin has to avoid being stomped. He rolls away to avoid contact and then explodes out of another roll with a clothesline! Sabin manages to headscissor Gunner to the outside and tries a dive through the ropes, but is caught with a forearm by Kash in a spectacular counter!

Kash brutalises Sabin on the outside and when Shelley looks to help, big Isaiah Cash gets between them, and Sabin is pushed head first into the steel steps! Kash hits a Flatliner on the floor and Sabin looks to be dead! Gunner helps Kash lift the dead weight of Sabin into the ring and then goes for the cover, but Shelley breaks it up.

The ref tells Shelley to get back in his corner as another blind tag happens and Gunner looks for a modified Crippler Crossface. Shelley drop kicks Gunner in the face and he has to release the hold. Shelley drags Sabin to the corner and then tags him and comes in only to be put in a fireman’s carry by Gunner. Shelley though slips out and goes behind the bigger man, but Gunner then bashes him with an elbow and takes Shelley’s back looking for a German suplex, but Shelley grapevines the leg to block and then back Gunner into the corner. Shelley then drops down and out of nowhere Sabin comes flying over the top with a back elbow shot. Shelley though sprints to the opposite corner and when Sabin whips Gunner into Shelley he is hit with an overhead belly to belly that sends Gunner flying upside down into the turnbuckles!

HESITATION DROPKICK from Sabin!!! Shelley grabs Gunner out of the corner and turns him with a neckbreaker and Sabin comes off the top with a cross body combo delivering the Skull and Bones!! 1..2… Kash makes the save as Isaiah Cash gets up on the apron but Sky and Love grab his ankles and look to pull him down off the apron, but they aren’t strong enough, but a double dropkick from the Guns is and he flies backwards and crashes onto the guard rails!

Shelley goes for the Sliced Bread, but Gunner’s power pushes Shelley through the move and out of the ring to the floor! Sabin comes in dropkicks Gunner in the face and then looks for the Cradleshock but Kash kicks him in the gut and then hits the Impaler Driver! 1.2.3

Match #5
Road to Glory Gauntlet Match


The powerhouse Lashley walks out as his pyro explodes looking very confident as this match wills end him towards the main event of BFG. His confidence drops slightly as he has been randomly drawn to face… the Monster Abyss!

Bobby Lashley vs. Abyss

The gauntlet match is the ultimate test of skill, strategy and endurance especially for the opening two men. The bell sounds and the two mastodons collide looking to put the other down. Abyss though is known for being able to absorb a lot of damage, however Lashley is known to dish it out! Big shots to Abyss’ face and then a clothesline has Lashley looking strong, but Abyss fires back with a clothesline and then a whip into the corner. He follows it up with a big splash in the corner. Abyss roars and crosses his arms with his devilish pose. Lashley comes out of the corner and Abyss looks for the Shock treatment back breaker, but Bobby escapes and hits a DDT! 1..2.. Abyss kicks out. Lashley looks for a triangle choke, but Abyss wont tap and so has to release the hold and look for the dominator. But Abyss being 350 pounds is not beaten down enough yet and powers out and lands a big boot to the face!

Lashley gets back up and comes off the ropes with a big leap frog and then a kick to the gut, then a neckbreaker! Lashley ties in a front face lock and starts laying in big knee shots! Lashley looks for an arm bar, but Abyss escapes and gets to his feet and hits a chokelsam! 1..2.. Lashley powers out, and quickly sets himself for a clothesline, but James Mitchell has come out and grabs Booby’s ankle. Lashley is tripped up and stumbles right into a Black Hole Slam! 1.2.3! Bobby Lashley is eliminated.

Abyss roars, but drops to a knee to catch his breathe. Officials help Lashley from the ring as Abyss’ next opponent’s music hits. It’s the British Invasion music and out walks Magnus. Magnus looks weary of his opponent and tells the ref to get Abyss back so he can step through the ropes.

Abyss vs. Magnus

The Brit looking as if he was carved out of marble aims up to animalistic Abyss. The monster well known for his power, but not his endurance is breathing fairly heavily. Magnus smirks and slaps the beast’s face. Abyss roars into action but Magnus ducks his haymaker and starts laying in quick jabs to the jaw. He comes off the ropes and hits a big boot to the face. Abyss wobbles but does not fall, so Magnus hits the ropes again and this time downs Abyss with a clothesline!

Abyss though refuses to stay down and gets to his feet only be hit by big Euro uppercuts. Magnus looks to whip the monster, but Abyss blocks it and reverse it sending Magnus into the corner. Abyss races in but eats a boot, Magnus quickly hops up to the second turnbuckle and flies off with a double sledge, but Abyss catches him with a clothesline in mid air!

The tables have now turned and Abyss starts laying in big time right hands. Mitchell warns his charge on the outside of disqualification, and Abyss obeys the ref’s 5 count. Magnus is now dazed as he gets to his feet he is goozled and Abyss looks for the chokeslam. But Magnus slips out of it and clips the Monster’s knee. Abyss drops to a knee and is blasted in the face by a missile dropkick! 1..2.. Abyss kicks out, but Magnus stays on him with big body shots. Magnus brings the monster back to his feet and power slams the 350 pounder in a great show of strength. Abyss is exhausted and Magnus climbs the turnbuckles and comes down with a flying elbow! 1..2.. Abyss kicks out! Magnus can’t believe it and slaps the mat out of frustration. Abyss gets to his feet and Magnus looks for his Tormentum finisher. But Abyss is too heavy and counters it with a Shock Treatment back breaker. 1..2.. Magnus kicks out! This time the monster is frustrated, and he sets himself for the Black Hole Slam. Magnus gets to his feet and Abyss grabs his wrist to wring him into the deadly move but Magnus gets both knees up to block into a codebreaker type move to the chest. Abyss bounces off and Magnus has again hit the sternum. Flying elbow drop form the top turnbuckle! 1..2…3! Abyss is eliminated!

Magnus concentrated his attacks on the sternum and ran Abyss around to work on his low endurance weakness. Mitchell can’t believe it as Magnus gets his hand raised. Magnus though is pretty banged up from his encounter and starts sucking in wind to prepare for who he will face next.

Magnus vs. Frankie Kazarian

The psychotic former X Division walks out to his death metal entrance theme. The man has changed over the last few months to this new crazed and maniacal competitor. His greasy long black hair drapes over his face, but wild eyes and a vicious grin can still be seen as he races down the ramp and slides into the ring not giving Magnus any time to recuperate. He wildly launches an attack with punches and kicks and stomps on the taller man as Kaz looks to finish this one early.

Magnus stumbles out of the corner and Kaz flies off the top with a guillotine leg drop crashing Magnus’ skull into the mat! This one is over quickly! 1..2.. No! Magnus kicks out! Kazarian, quickly moves Magnus into the Fade to Black finisher, but Magnus quickly hits a sunset flip, but Magnus escapes it and holding Magnus’ right arm locks it behind his knee and drops down on it! Magnus’ elbow and forearm looked to have been bent into a pretzel! Magnus squeals in pain and quickly holds his arm as the blood lusting Kazarian moves in for the kill. He stomps away on the arm and elbow that would normally deliver the elbow drop.

Kazarian grabs the arm and looks for an armbar, and tries to hyper extend the elbow. Magnus fights out of it by kicking wildly at Kazarian. Kazarian not phased, stalks Magnus and punts him in the ribs and uses that mark as a target to drop elbows. Magnus scrambles to the ropes to escape. He climbs out of the ring holding his arm as if it were broken and his ribs. Kaz flies over the top rope and nails Magnus with the plancha! Kaz dives back into the ring and orders the ref to count. The ref begins a ten count, but Magnus fires up and the crowd gets behind him. He comes back in only to be met by a baseball slide to the face sending back out to the floor.

Kaz follows him out and throws him into the guard rail and then the posts and then kicks the ribs again. He then slams the arm on the steel steps and then wheelbarrow slams him on the floor!!! Kaz is like a pitbull going from move to move. He dives back into the ring and demands the ref count again. 1…2…3…4…Magnus moves towards the ring apron…6…7… He grabs the bottom rope and pulls himself into the ring …9… Kaz starts laying in the boots and then pulls Magnus to his feet by his ears and then is struck in the face by a standing dropkick! Boom! 1..2… Magnus kicks out with everything he may just have left. Kaz roars in disgust and climbs the turnbuckles. He sets himself and as Magnus turns around he launches with a big crossbody. Bt Magnus gets under him and catches Kaz on his shoulders. Tormentum connects (Twisting Samoan Drop)! 1.2.3! Frankie Kazarian is eliminated.

Magnus drops to his knees and grabs his ribs. He tries to shake out the pain in his elbow, but it only makes it worse. The ref asks him if he can continue and he tells him he is fine. Magnus sets himself for the next guy and out he comes…

Magnus vs. Robert Roode

Roode walks up the steel steps and wipes his feet n the apron before stepping into the ring. The ref checks him and he is ready to engage. They tie up, but immediately the pain in Magnus’ arm is too much and Roode turns it into an arm wringer. He pulls down on the elbow trying to damage it and then puts it into a hammerlock. Roode wrenches back on it and then starts bashing the elbow while tied up in an attempt to possibly break it. The crowd boos but Roode is a man on a mission. Magnus is finally able to get his foot through the bottom rope to make the break. Roode smiles and releases the hold. Roode steps into the middle of the ring and tells him to come get him. Magnus looks for an opening in the former multi time tag champion. And he takes it by moving in to lock up, but quickly boots Roode in the gut and then hits a snap suplex with one arm! Magnus then quickly looks to go the top for the elbow drop, but Roode is up quickly and crotches him on the top. Roode then with Magnus perched on the top rope delivers his Pay Off fisherman’s buster! 1..2.. Magnus kicks out! Magnus kicks out of the Pay Off!

Roode can’t believe it and catches Magnus in the crippler crossface. Magnus is caught and there is no where for him to go, the arm is locked in and his head and neck is being pulled back with too much force. Magnus has no choice and taps…. Magnus is eliminated.

Roode raises both arms in victory as he shows off a winner’s smile. Magnus did well but he sustained too much punishment from Abyss and Kazarian. Roode too full advantage and now awaits possibly his former partner. James Storm is also in the gauntlet match but Jarrett said there maybe others… and suddenly Roode realises that he is in a lot of trouble. The next entrant’s music hits and the fans go berserk!!!

Angle sets himself for another challenge as the fans are right into the fast pace of the gauntlet match. Who knows how many more competitors will be in this after Storm? Is Angle the only mystery entrant or are there others? The two men lock up and Angle looks for a head lock, but Storm, counters and pushes him off to the ropes only to have Angle knock him down with a shoulder block.

Danielson then charges with a drop kick to the face! LeBell lock! But Petey is too close to the ropes and he escapes the hold.

He drops down to the floor, but Bryan bounces off the ropes and hits the flying forearm dive through the second rope smashing Petey in the face. Danielson roars to the crowd as the cheer him on. Danielson then hits brutally stiff Euro uppercuts on the outside and when Petey looks to run away he is blasted in the same leg again with the kick! And another Euro sends Petey crashing into the guard rail. Danielson though walks into a boot from a desperate Petey, and then gets rocked with a clothesline. Williams scurries to the apron and then jumps off to hit the rana to the floor!

Both men are down now as the ref counts to ten. Williams rolls Danielson in but leaves his head exposed under the ropes. He drops the leg across Bryan’s throat, and then drops a knee across his forehead. Danielson rolls back into the ring to cover himself from the attack. Petey comes again and looks for the Sharpshooter, but Bryan rolls through and applies a heel hook. Petey gets to the ropes squealing in pain. The ref tells Danielson to release the hold but he refuses…1..2..3…4.. Danielson gets to his feet and says “he has till 5 referee!”

Williams pokes Danielson is the eye and then looks for the Crippler Crossface which gets a huge boo, but it is quickly countered into Cattle Mutilation to a huge cheer!

But it isn’t locked in quite correctly due to it being a counter, and Petey escapes again. He dives to the outside again, and Danielson follows him, but this time he runs up the turnbuckles and hits a somersault dive crashing down on Petey! The crowd gives him Dragon a ‘best in the world” chant, but Williams capitalises on the distraction and the two brawl around ringside.

Danielson starts with his brutal stiff kicks and Petey looks for an escape. Danielson has gone up a notch and has turned vicious. Danielson traps Williams in the ring and in an awesome sequence starts stretching out the Canadian Destroyer. He uses the surf board, he turns that into a dragon sleeper, he then stomps on the back on his elbows to break his wrists, and he locks in a combination of different submissions wowing the fans!

Williams looks all but beat but he is able to get to the ropes and escape. Superkick to Bryan, and then suddenly the crowd say no but Petey hits it, he hits the Canadian Destroyer on the American Dragon!!!! 1..2..3..

NO! Danielson’s foot is on the ropes! The crowd goes crazy for it and Petey is livid. He grabs Danielson and brings him into the centre of the ring and sets him for another ride. He gives the slash of the throat sign but Danielson drops down as dead weight and Petey then changes his mind and applies the Sharpshooter. He is about to turn him over but Danielson grabs him in a schoolboy and transitions him into the LeBell Lock! The fans go crazy as Petey furiously struggles to escape the hold. Petey stretches his leg out to try and reach the ropes, but it was he who brought them into the centre of the ring.

But the technical skill of Williams is not to be underestimated and just before he can stand no more, he turns Danielson onto his back and pins his shoulders to the mat. 1.2.
Kick out! Danielson has to release the hold and kickout at the same time to escape. Both men get up but Danielson again fires the brutal; kick to the same leg and Petey buckles under the pain. He falls to the mat and Danielson locks in a half nelson and unleashes the dreaded Dragon Elbows. He viscously lays them into the temple of Williams one after the other. Each one more brutal than the next. Blood starts trickling from the side of Williams’ face and Williams taps out! He can no longer bear the shots to the head.

Winner: Bryan Danielson

Danielson is victorious and the fans go up with him as he has his arm raised, his right elbow dripping with Canadian blood. Williams falls in a heap on the mat grasping at the side of his skull as the Final Countdown kicks in and Danielson celebrates with the fans.


Backstage Christy Hemme is with Interim X Division Champion Austin Aries. Aries says that tonight he and Low Ki will return to their war that was stopped because we both couldn’t continue. They beat each other so badly that they were forced to revisit this very match months down the track. But here they are to finally end it. To finally find out who is the Champion of the X Division. The no limits division that ahs come to define TNA. The reason TNA has adopted its name. Total Non-Stop Action Wrestling, MEANS THE x Division and tonight he will unify his belt with Low Ki’s when he defeats him in the centre of the ring.

Elsewhere in the back Jeremy Borash is with the Warrior Low Ki. Low Ki pauses for a moment and looks at the X title. He says that tonight has been a long time coming. And he has waited too long for it. For months now pretenders have been walking around TNA claiming they are the Champion. That peon Kazarian thought he was better than me. And now Austin Aries. Aries says tonight he will unify his belt with mine and defeat me for the title. But I say his title is worthless and he hasn’t beaten me and will never beat me. Last time they fought it was the toughest match of his career. But this time, he wont underestimate Aries he will simply destroy him, with the Warriors Way.

TO BE CONTINUED...

Match #7
X Division Championship Unification Match
Champion Low Ki vs. Interim Champion Austin Aries


Ki is offended by there being another title belt out there and he spits on Aries’ title. He knocks it out of Austin’s hands and shoves the gold in his opponents’ face. But Aries doesn’t take too kindly for this and the match explodes as the left handed Aries blasts Ki with an elbow to the jaw!

They go toe to toe right off the bell trading chops and kicks, but Aries blocks a kick from Low Ki and tries to go for the Dragon Sleeper right off the bat. Low Ki escapes and they go back and forth again before coming to a stalemate.

Crowd is evenly split and Low Ki shoots a single leg and takes Austin down, but he sits out and they again start neutral. They go to the mat again and Low Ki gets a modified Indian Deathlock, but Aries escapes and they trade blows again with Aries easily coming out on top and shutting Low Ki down with a rear chinlock. Aries takes Low Ki to the corner and unloads with a hard chop, then goes to the second rope but gets caught by Low Ki, who yanks him off by the foot and kicks him in the chest on the way down. Low Ki takes Aries to the mat, grapevines one of his arms, and elbows his ribs before looking for a quick pin. Aries fights his way to the ropes and they go back to trading blows until Low Ki spinkicks Aries square in the chest, but comes off the ropes right into an overhead release suplex that sends Low Ki out to the floor.

Heatseeker!!!

Ki crashes into the guardrails as Aries cockily struts to the camera and takes a bow. Aries looks to whip Low Ki into the guardrail again, but Low Ki fires back and boots Aries into the crowd. Ki sets himself and when Aries pokes his head back in he gets it kicked off his shoulders! Low Ki rags Aries back across the rail and brutally kicks him in the back. Aries slumps to the floor and Ki rolls him back into the ring.

Low Ki just beats Aries into oblivion against the ropes and comes off the ropes with a running forearm that gets him 2. Aries goes for a chop, but Low Ki catches the arm and rolls with a hard back suplex. Aries is hurting but springs to his feet in a rage and nails Low Ki with a hard chop in the corner, then follows with a running chop and then his explosive dropkick to the face for 2. Low Ki tries the handspring enziguiri, but Aries catches him and dumps him over the top rope to the floor. Aries goes out to the apron and elbow drops onto Low Ki. Aries punts Low Ki in the face and then looks for the brainbuster on the floor. Ki knees the top of Aries’ skull to escape and then blasts him the temple with a roundhouse kick! Low Ki then jumps up on the apron and unleashes the Warriors Way double foot stomp on the floor! Aries coughs up blood as Low Ki gets Holy Shit chants.

Low Ki rolls Aries back into the ring and covers him..1..2.. Aries kicks out. Low Ki pulls Aries to his feet and whips him into the corner. Ki with the Tidal Krush but Aries boots him in the face and goes for a clothesline, Low Ki ducks and goes for a rolling cross arm breaker, but Aries catches him in a cradle for 2, then goes to an STF. Low Ki gets out so Aries goes to the Last Chancery!!

Low Ki escapes by rolling onto his side and starts kicking Aries square in the face. Low Ki gets to his feet and looks really pissed off and slaps Aries in the face. Aries slaps back, and they take turns smacking the taste out of each other's mouth until Ki just pummels Aries with slaps, Aries nails a roaring elbow but the Warrior kills him with a lariat!!! 1..2.. Kick out!

Low Ki picks up Aries and puts him in the tree of woe. He climbs the turnbuckles and as Aries looks up at him he comes down with the double stomp to the chest and face in a huge roar from the crowd! Aries looks dead as he hangs from one leg off the ring post. Ki pulls Aries of the turnbuckle and then covers him. 1.2. Kick out!!!

Both men struggle to their feet and they then trade kicks and chops tearing into each other but then Low Ki comes back and fires off kicks like a machine gun. Aries fires back, but Low Ki barely slows down before firing more kicks at Aries until he collapses in the corner. Low Ki walks back out to the middle of the ring, but Aries pulls himself up and goes back to the middle of the ring, slaps Low Ki in the face, and tells him to come on. They trade more blows, Low Ki fires kicks at Aries, Aries with more open hand strikes, but Low Ki just drills him in the head with a big boot, Aries hits a leaping enziguiri, Low Ki hits a backdrop suplex, Aries hits one of his own, Low Ki hits one, Aries hits one, and they're both completely spent.

The ref starts counting the ten count, just like he did in their last encounter when neither man could answer it. 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.

Ki is up!

9..

Aries is up!!!!

Ki looks for another kick, Aries catches it and hits the Dragon screw leg whip. And then as Ki grabs his knee in pain, Aries hits the punt to the face! Aries falls in a heap sitting on the bottom rope, before realising the title is in his grasp. He climbs the turnbuckles as the fans seem to climb with him. 450 SPLASH!!!!

1..2..NOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Low Ki kicks out!!! At 2 9/10ths! Aries can’t believe it! The crowd can’t believe it! The ref can’t believe it! Ki grabs his chest in pain as Aries grabs his arm and looks for another Last Chancery, but Ki grabs the bottom rope. Aries drags Low Ki to the middle of the ring, he smells blood and he goes for the Brainbuster. Ki slips out the back door and BOOM hits the Ki Krusher!! 1..2.. Kick out!!!

Low Ki gets to his feet, looks at the crowd, and signals that he's ready to put Aries away. Ki hits a Juvi driver for 2! Then climbs the turnbuckles for the Warriors Way. He comes down but Aries moves, Low Ki rolls with it. Aries hits a roaring elbow to Ki’s jaw. Ki hits a stiff kick to the ribs. Aries comes off the ropes with a clothesline knocking Ki down and then hits the turbo pendulum elbow! 1..2.. Ki kicks out!

Exploder suplex on Ki and then the Crucifix Bomb and this time the Brainbuster connects!!! 1..2.. Ki kicks out again. Both men are spent as Aries comes again, but Ki hits his double bicycle flying stomp to the sternum. Aries is sent flying backwards, and he quickly locks in a Dragon Sleeper. Aries quickly twists around and back body drops Ki. Punt to the head again and one more brainbuster!!! 1.2.3.

Winner and Undisputed X Division Champion of the World: Austin Aries

Both men spent in an amazing war of attrition. Aries handed both belts and he ca no longer stand. He clutches them as Low Ki is helped to the back. Both men get standing ovations from the fans with “That was awesome” chants coming from the sold out arena. Aries finally gets to his feet and lifts both belts in the air and points to his opponent. An exhausted Ki very subtly bows to the new Champion and quickly exits so the fans can cheer the new Undisputed X Division Champion.

We go backstage to see Desmond Wolfe and Chelsea with Christy Hemme. Wolfe says tonight he will simply take Samoa Joe’s head for his trophy case and bring the beautiful Chelsea a giant gold belt for hers. Tonight he becomes the Heavyweight Champion of the World and it will be that eeaaasy!

Samoa Joe is with Jeremy Borash and JB asks Joe about his two comrades. Joe says that Styles and Daniels are the toughest men he knows and will bounce back. Unfortunately he can’t be with them right this moment, but the best thing to do is to defend the title and check on them as STILL the Champion of the World. Keeping the title in the Unbreakable 3 stable is all that matters right now and tonight Desmond Wolfe thinks I’m injured, I’m hurt, I’m vulnerable. He is sadly mistaken. He will bear the brunt of what eh has done to me over the last few weeks and I will couple it with the rage of what ahs happened tonight to my stable mates. Tonight Wolfe Joe’s gonna kill you.

Main Event
World Heavyweight Championship Match
Champion Samoa Joe vs. Desmond Wolfe w/ Chelsea


The challenger Desmond Wolfe with Chelsea is introduced first as they make their way to the ring. The fans boo him as he flips them off and ceremonially removes his jacket and sunglasses. He kisses his valet’s hand as she steps through the ropes with her long legs. Then we get the fiery entrance from the reigning Champion as he stomps down to the ring to a deafening ovation from the sold out arena. The roof almost blows off as Joe walks down the ramp and steps into the ring. Joe looked very focussed on not showing he is carrying any injuries and walked with purpose.

We get official introductions from Jeremy Borash as the ref holds the World title belt high in the air and then showing it to the fans and then to the competitors. Audio picks up Wolfe in his corner saying “kiss it goodbye Joe!”
The ref checks both men and then signals for the bell as the fans go crazy to see these two men go at it. Joe straight away using his weight advantage drives Wolfe into the corner, but surprisingly gives a clean break. He backs away with hands in the air, but before Wolfe can move, he is slapped across the face by a smirking Champion. Joe grabs a wristlock but Wolfe gives Joe a wrestling lesson by countering under and rolling over for his own top wristlock! But Joe counters and puts Wolfe down with a shoulderblock. Joe sends him off to the ropes and this time gets armdragged twice and now is being kept down by a top wristlock. Joe looks to counter by being patient and getting to his feet but Wolfe moves to a chickenwing and then to another top wristlock.

Wolfe now bridges into a cover and gets a one count. Joe looking to escape the hold gets to his feet but as he does Wolfe drives him into the corner and then kicks Joe's arm! Nigel with a forearm in the corner and then targets the arm with another forearm. Nigel gives him the double throat thrust and tries a charge in the corner but Joe gets the boot up. Joe with a vertical suplex and covers for a one count. Both men seem to be moving in a methodical slowly built pace to try and stretch the other out and then lead into a high impact move. Wolfe again works on the arm of Joe, but Joe stays calm and breaks free with a forearm to the face. He then hits the ropes and looks for a Lariat, but Wolfe puts his forearms up and blocks it! The shot is deflected, and Wolfe kicks Joe n the gut and then moves for a DDT, but Joe pushes him away and then and smashes Joe with a Euro uppercut. Both men take backwards steps and Wolfe sets in motion his plan, and he clips Joe’s knee from behind!

For months Joe’s knees and shoulders have been troubling him after all the huge title defences he has fought through. Wolfe looks for a leg lock, but Joe frantically kicks him off. So Wolfe jumps on top and looks for big punches to Joe’s face before tiring to lock in an arm bar. Joe rolls away looking for an escape but he rolls right into a Wolfe key lock arm submission he calls the London Dungeon. He tears back on it looking to have Joe tap, but Joe with his power crawls with Wolfe o his back and grabs the bottom rope. Wolfe quickly breaks the hold but stomps Joe in the back of the head forcing his throat to go across the bottom rope, and then Desmond kicks the bottom rope!

Joe grabs his throat in pain as Wolfe stomps the kneecap of Joe and then spins him around on the mat, and draping the ankle across the bottom rope he cannonballs down looking to separate the knee! Wolfe is in complete control as he comes down again on Joe’s knee, but wary not to go to the well too many times he quickly drags him to the centre and looks for a Boston crab. Joe gets to his back and kicks Wolfe off, but due to the damage he can’t get to his feet quickly and is nailed by a snap suplex! Wolfe makes the cover, but Joe kicks out, but Wolfe is relentless and works the cover a few times.

Joe gets back up and shoots forearm shots to Wolfe’s face and then charges but Desmond ducks in time and then puts the Champ down with an STO. He poses and flips off the fans riling them up. Joe gets up but has his hand stomped and then he torques the arm! Wolfe then by pulls back on the off arm for the Rings of Saturn variation and then bridges back on it. Joe rolls through and goes for a rear naked choke almost out of desperation but Wolfe snapmares him over and kicks him in the back, sprints to the ropes in front of Joe and comes off with a baseball slide lariat! 1..2… Joe kicks out!

Wolfe takes the advantage with the turnaround Euro uppercut sprint out of the corner. He flips off the fans again and tries another but this time runs into a belly to belly overhead suplex from Joe. Joe is visibly showing pain in his knee and arms now, and when he hits Wolfe with a clothesline it seems to do more damage to the Champ than the challenger!

Wolfe sees this and goes for the Jawbreaker but Joe ducks and comes off the ropes with a flying leg lariat! Joe rolls Wolfe into the corner and dishes out the devastating face washes to the roar of the crowd. He looks to hit his super facewash, but he can’t sprint and Wolfe rolls out of the ring to a chorus of boos. Joe grits his teeth and bounces off the ropes. Wolfe is too busy tapping his thinking he is smart top see the 300 pound Samoan sail over the top rope with a spinning plancha and crash down on him! The fans go crazy as Joe screams out in pain, and Desmond look to be out!

Joe drags himself to his feet holding up his trademark hand sign and then shaking off as much of the pain he can he asks a fan at ringside for his chair. The fan gives him the chair to a huge roar from the crowd and sets it in the corner. He grabs Wolfe and hits some rights and lefts to keep him out to it and seats him down. The Champion signals to the crowd to sing a long with him and Joe sprints from one side to the other and delivers the brutal Ole Ole Kick!!!!

Wolfe’s head is crushed between boot heel and guardrail and he falls to the ground out of it. Joe hands the very excited fan his chair back and Joe rolls Wolfe back in. Joe limps back up the stairs trying to shake the pain from his shoulder and arm as he grabs Wolfe and drives him into the mat with a powerbomb! And then another! And then another! With the third he transitions to a Boston Crab submission. The pain wakes Wolfe up, and he reaches for the ropes, but Joe transitions to an STF!

Wolfe is in even more pain now and so reaches for the ropes, but Joe grabs the arm back and turns it into the Ring of Saturn. Wolfe though just barely flings his leg out and touches the bottom rope. The ref calls for the bell but now the powerful Champion has got his confidence back and the momentum of the match has swung his way!

Joe sits Wolfe up and blasts him between the shoulder blades with a kick, and then a kick to the chest which sends him to the mat! Back senton splash! 1..2.. Wolfe kicks out! The look on Desmond’s face now has changed and he has realised who he is in the ring with now, a man who has been Champion for so long for a reason. Wolfe tries to get to his feet but Joe peppers him with kicks to the head, shoulder and ribs, before whipping him off the ropes and hitting the overdrive powerslam! 1..2.. Kick out! Chelsea on the outside is not sure what to do as the beast known as the Samoan Submission Machine has begun his assault.

Joe picks up Wolfe and looks for an Island Driver, but he cops a thumb to the eye. Wolfe slips out the back and clips the back of the knee again! Joe screams in pain, and the Brit challenger may have just blown out the knee! Joe grabs in pain, as Wolfe lies on the mat unable to get to his feet. The ref begins his count as Joe crawls to the turnbuckles and uses the ropes to drag himself up. Wolfe is up and charges at Joe, but he hits his one armed slam in the corner. Joe rolls onto him 1..2.. Wolfe’s in the ropes so the ref stops the count. Both men get up but Joe is favouring his leg and Wolfe pushes him in the back and sends him sternum first into the turnbuckles. He then punts Joe is the back and then comes down with a lariat!!

An exhausted Wolfe drags the 300 pounder to the middle of the ring and covers him, 1.2.. Kick out! Wolfe brings Joe to his feet and hits the Divorce Court (arm wringer key lock DDT which focuses on the shoulder more than the head). Joe screams in pain as his knee is gone and now he may have dislocated his shoulder. Wolfe immediately punts the shoulder over and over and then locks in the London Dungeon!

Joe is pain that roars as he tries to reach the ropes. Wolfe cranks back on the damaged shoulder and arm with all his weight but Joe refuses to tap. The ref asks Joe, but almost gets punched in the face as he refuses to allow his title to be taken from him.

Joe slides his left knee under his own body and twists himself spinning out of the hold but in doing so it allows Wolfe to transition into an armbar. Joe though locks his fingers as Wolfe cranks at his arm trying to break his grip and hyper extend the elbow. But Joe spins his body on the mat and kicks away from Wolfe and the two men are separated, but not for long as Wolfe hits a running Euro uppercut!

Wolfe jumps on Joe’s back and looks for a cobra clutch. Joe backs Wolfe into the turnbuckles trying to break the hold, but Wolfe locks it in deep, but then turns it into a short arm lariat!! 1..2.. Joe kicks out as the fans have not sat down for ages. Joe limps again back to his feet as Wolfe again stomps the leg of Joe making sure he is immobile and not able to escape what he is no doubt setting up for, his Jawbreaker Lariat or Tower of London. If Joe will not submit, he must be knocked out to be pinned. Wolfe pushes Joe into the corner and hits another Euro and then tries to sit him up on the top turnbuckle for the Tower of London. Joe open palm strikes Wolfe to escape but Wolfe hits a big boot to Joe’s knee! TOWER OF LONDON!!!

2.999999

Joe’s shoulder just lifts off the canvas, as Wolfe can’t believe it and the fans roar! Wolfe grabs Joe by the shoulder and looks for another Divorce Court but it is countered into the Rear Naked Choke! The fans go up as Joe locks it in. But they are still in the corner and Wolfe backs Joe into the turnbuckles. He lets fly with some back elbows, but Joe refuses to let go, so Wolfe picks Joe’s tree trunk leg and drapes it over the middle rope and then pulls back on the ankle. He escapes the clutch and then Wolfe while Joe’s leg is wrapped up in the ropes, he hits a dragon screw leg whip!!!

If Joe’s knee was done before it is surely destroyed now! Joe crumbles under his own weight and falls to the mat, Wolfe covers him and puts his feet on the ropes, 1..2… the ref sees Wolfe and stops the count. He gets in Wolfe’s face but the challenger is too focused, Joe hits a low blow behind the ref’s back and Wolfe drops to the mat holding his groin!!! The ref starts to count the ten as both men are down on the mat. The Champion tries to slap feeling back into his knee and he hops back up, but as he tries a lariat, his knee gives way and falls to the mat.

Wolfe gets to one knee to see Wolfe standing in front of him. Joe knows he can’t defend himself and the audio picks up Joe roar ”Come on then mutha f@*$er!” Wolfe boots Joe in the head and then rebounds off the ropes, he falls through the middle rope and uses its force to catapult him forward.

JAWBREAKER LARIATOH!!!

The kneeling Joe is blasted in the face with the brutal move..1..2..




KICKOUT!!!! JOE KICKED OUT!!!!

Wolfe screams out “WHAAAAAAT!!!” He slaps the mat and starts laying in forearm shots to the back of Joe’s head and then locks in the London Dungeon again. Counter!!! Joe moves and locks in the Coquina Clutch! Wolfe is trapped, but elbows Joe’s knee and escapes and looks for the London Dungeon, but Joe counters and powers out into a crippler crossface. Wolfe escapes that by transitioning into a headscissors into a triangle choke. Joe breaks away from that and the two men try to get back up to their feet after an amazing submission sequence. But Joe once again cannot stand and so gets only to a knee and gets booted to the face. 1..2.. Joe kicks out! Wolfe again goes for the London Dungeon for what seems like a fifth time, but Joe pushes him off and hits him with a headbutt. The two exchange big palm strikes and elbow shots. Joe roars as he lays in shot after shot after shot after shot!!!! Wolfe’s face is a bruised and bloody mess and he falls backwards to the mat. 1..2… Kick out!!!

Joe still unable to get off the mat looks for a guillotine choke. Wolfe does a handstand and escapes out of it. He climbs to the top turnbuckle for a high risk move, but Joe drags him off the top and crotches him on the top!

MUSCLEBUSTER!!!!

Leg on the rope!

The crowd is in disbelief, Joe almost curls up into a ball, as Wolfe lies seemingly unconscious on the mat. Joe crawls over to Wolfe and gets his back and then tries to lock in the choke. Wolfe struggles to not allow him to slip his arm underneath his chin, but Joe grates his knuckles into the Wolfe ‘s temple and he gets the choke in… Joe flips onto his back and cranks on the choke, but Wolfe elbows away at Joe’s knee so he can’t get the leg scissors. Wolfe flips over and traps Joe’s shoulders to the mat…1…2…

Joe releases the hold… before the three count.

JAWBREAKER!!!!!

Winner and NEW Heavyweight Champion of the World: Desmond Wolfe

The fans are stunned as Wolfe raises his arms in victory. Blood drips from his face as the ref grabs his arm and hands him the World title. Chelsea jumps into the ring and hugs him and helps him stand up, as a determined Wolfe flips off the fans with whatever energy he has left as he drops down embracing the belt. Chelsea drapes his jacket over his shoulders and then applauds him laughing at the fans. Wolfe looks at the belt and then with a big grin holds it up to the sold out crowd as if he is throwing it in all their faces, and points to his chest saying “ World Heavyweight Champion!!! And he is right, Desmond Wolfe is now the TNA Champion of the World!
 
SXEnightmare's Review:

Jeff Hardy vs Christopher Daniels wow what a match to open the PPV! both men worked really well together i loved seeing daniels fight dirty a little bit at first to kinda do what hardy has been doing to him. Jeff Hardy picks up the victory in the end after Daniels hits his head on the ring post and a swanton bomb loved the match and now it appears hardys gonna begin fueding with sting that could be good.

Fatal 4 Way Knockouts Match this match was shorter then i was expecting but thats not a bad thing every ppv needs atleast 1 reletively short match and the match was still good i was a bit surprised alisa flash retained i thought for sure 1 of the 3 challengers would pull off the victory makes me wonder if flash has anybody left to beat in the divison.

Hernadez vs Masters not a bad match but to me it was very forgettable didnt like the DQ finish but understand why it happened i assume setting up some sort of NO DQ match for BFG.

MCMG vs Kash/Gunner this was a really good tag team match i thought kash and gunner were gonna win but at the same time having the guns win doesnt surprise me my only complaint in the match is i feel like the beautiful people interfeared too much sense the guns are faces but i dont think it was meant as a heel tatic more as trying to help there men so it makes some sense.

Road To Glory Gauntlet Match Abyss beats Lashley,Magnus beats Abyss,Magnus beats Kazarian,Roode beats Magnus but hold the phone here comes Angle and he eliminates Roode,Storm and A debuting MVP wow! while Angle winning is a good move sense hes already a built up main event guy it would have been huge for a guy like roode or storm or even kaz to beat angle im okay with angle winning but i was hoping roode or storm would beat him my favorite match out of all of them was probably angle vs roode.

Styles vs Morgan Morgan dominates a very short match not at all what i expected here it looks to be a bad night for the unbreakable 3 not really alot to say here. oh and just a little note sense the unbreakable 3 have lost 2 matches there 0 and 2 not 2 and 0....just saying but no big deal lol

Danielson vs Williams wow this match was brutal! that was a brutal ending to the match i was rooting for Petey to pull off the victory personally but Danielson might have just taken him out wow wonder whats next for Danielson.

Low Ki vs Austin Aries what a GREAT x divison match this was! hard hitting action all throughout loved every minute of it not 1 negative thing to say here Aries picks up the victory which was nice to see im left wondering whats next for low ki if its another war with austin aries a chance to move up the card a little bit or a brand new x divison fued guess ill have to wait and see but so far this is match of the night.

Samoa Joe vs Desmond Wolfe here we go main event time will the bad luck for the unbreakable 3 keep going or will joe keep the dominance going and defeat the challenger? the "2.999999" made me laugh just wanted to say that but wow this was a damn good match im not a huge joe fan but him and wolfe might have just stole the show away from low ki and austin aries! great back and forth match with close falls and hard hitting blows this match had everything you could want in a good match! i thought Wolfe won with that lariat when joe was on his knees but Joe shockingly kicked out and fought back but in the end it wasnt enough Wolfe hits a big jawbreaker and Desmond Wolfe is the new TNA Champion! WOW! i called this from your last show its a nice move somebody new as champ is a good thing i have a feeling were gonna see another war between these guys very soon and if so i cant wait!

overall this was a GREAT PPV even with 2 very short matches! if victory road was this good i cant wait for BFG! very good PPV.
 
Jam's Review
Congrats on reading another Pay-Per-View GS. This is like, your 4th one right? Anyway, the show is looking good with the graphics I made. I'm glad they turned out to your liking but anyway, onto the review. Here we go!

First matchup of the night was a good one as Hardy took on Daniels. Both guys are pretty much X-Division guys so they'll rile up the crowd in a frenzy which is what you want your opening match to do. Hardy was always going to win this since he has another storyline coming up. With Hardy calling out Sting, I can't wait for this rivalry. I actually like Jeff as a heel so this could really ascend Hardy to the top because of Sting being a super face.

I'm really liking Masters in TNA so I hope that he goes over in his feud with Hernandez. Really not a Hernandez fan, in fact, go ahead and release him. Masters could be in the upper midcard if you booked him that way and it'd be believable. I see Masters coming out as the victor in this feud, only time will tell.

Like I said, I think that Kash and Gunner are a pretty good team. They're both tough guys and are aggressive in the ring, they're the perfect match. MCMG had to win here to prolong their tag titles. Unless a team becomes very credible, I don't see MCMG losing the titles any time soon.

Wow. Pretty good gauntlet match. I really wasn't expecting much here. I was thinking that Roode would win this and this is when you'd push Roode to be a top singles star. But with Kurt and MVP back, I think that TNA has just gotten back their best wrestler in Angle and a charismatic character in MVP. I approve of brining in these two guys.

Aries vs. Low Ki was definitely match of the night for me. These two absolutely battled in the ring. I was pulling for Low Ki but Aries really isn't a bad choice either. Both of these guys are at the top of the X-Division and I hope that this isn't the last time we see them wrestle in the ring. Such a good wrestling show so far. With the World Title match next, it should be a great contest.

I'm shocked that we have a new World Champion to be honest. I was sure that Joe would win this one then he'd battle Kurt or Morgan and that's when he'd lose. I'm absolutely stunned. But anyway, a new champion can be a good thing because now Joe will be more aggressive as ever and I believe that the Unbreakable 3 will split up real soon. I wouldn't mind if that happened. This was a big loss for Joe so hopefully he gets back on track.

Overall, pretty good Pay-Per-View. The X-Division Title Match and the World Title Match were definitely two of the best matches of the night. Those four guys absolutely went to war but I see this not being the end of either feud. I'm now anxious to read what happens on iMPACT. Goodjob GS!
 
workhorse Review

*Well done on completing a successful PPV Grandsword. Graphics look great and the match detail is fantastic! First match-up is Hardy vs Daniels. It was a great, exciting match which is just what you want as an opener. Looks like we'll see Hardy vs Sting! Sounds like it could be an awesome feud and a real chance for Jeff to develop his heel character. Knockouts match was solid, but short. Flash is the least known Knockout in the match (to me) but you booked the match well enough so all 4 knockouts looked strong at some point and Flash still retains. Next up is Masters vs Hernandez. I'm not a huge watcher of TNA but I've seen a little bit of Hernandez. I really liked Masters when he was in WWE so I hope you have some real direction for him to go in because he certainly has the look to make it.

*Tag Team Action is next. I always liked watching the MCMG whenever I watched TNA so I'm glad you've built them as the leaders of the tag division. Kash and Gunner aren't a bad team, but I hope they're not the team to eventually take the titles off of the MCMG. The match was fantastic and entertaining and the result was definitely the right one. I can't wait to see who you've got next in line for Shelley and Sabin. Alright, BFG #1 Contenders spot on the line and there 6 of your best guys there. I was hoping for Lashley or Roode to win, then boom Angle is back!! I was sure he would win then BOOM! MVP! I was then unsold on who would win but eventually Angle walked out. Well done on giving us a surprise. You've got two big guys back in the company so the direction you've got heading is great. Just my personal choice but I don't really want to see Angle win the BFG #1 contenders match. But it's your show ;)

*Morgan vs Styles wasn't what I expected by any means. I was hoping for a great battle but you've obviously got a big feud in store for these 2 so I'll let it slide and wait to see what you come up with. Danielson vs Williams was a fantastic technical match. I love Danielson winning but great job on the match. X-Division Title was probably MOTN in terms of action. It was such a well written match. It was a great story and Aries comes out on top. Well done on putting so much effort into the story and into the match I think it was a great success. Can't wait for Aries to move onto a new opponent and then eventually elevate himself into the Mainevent. Finally, Wolfe vs Joe in the mainevent. Wow! Wolfe has done it. I definitely thought that Joe would go on to BFG but Wolfe is now the man. Again, another incredible match and another shocking and unexpected turn. I'm sure Joe will be as aggressive as ever now and I can't wait to see how you book Wolfe going into BFG.

*Overall, there was so much detail put into the matches (All 9 of them!) and that is a tremendous achievement. I commend you on another successful PPV. There were twists and turns, unexpected results and returns (hey look a rhyme!) and overall you've opened yourself up to an array of opportunities for BFG. So congratulations, well done and I look forward to seeing what you come up with next.

Bearded Review

-I'm gonna be honest GS and admit that I'm behind on the show, so please forgive me on that matter. Lets jump straight into Victory Road.

-Daniels/Hardy was what I expected. More importantly it looks like Hardy/Sting is likely to happen and I'm all for that. Well done with Hardy here as I expect him to eventually pop back into the title hunt, but a program with Sting should be a great stopgap. Can't wait for that.

-Good to see Flash win. You know I'm a big fan and this win here gives her a nice rub as champion. No complaints. Hernandez and Masters does nothing for me as I'm not really a fan of the two, but they are two brute forces and I expect something big from you between the two.

-Tag team match, excellent work. Love that you are trying to make the division stronger. With Beer Money gone and AJ/Daniels gone, you have the MCMG and nothing else worth much. You are really building up Kash and Gunner though and I expect your tag teams to continue to get better.

-Road to Glory, is this like the BFG series? Fun match, exhausting. Hella fun though. Angle winning and if I'm getting it right he gets a title match? Look forward to that and I like the addition of MVP. He is fantastic, big fan of his work.

-Morgan dominates AJ and continues his tear on the roster. Good stuff, I dig it. Morgan is one of my favorites and he is doing big things and I hope to see him do bigger things. U3 is showing weakness after a nice run thus far.

-Danielson/Williams, what can I say? Fantastic match as always with those two. Your match writing is fantastic, I commend you on that. You are definitely one of the best we got here. Props on that.

-And here is the match I looked the most forward too. This has been one of the best storylines going. The Aries/Ki part of your show gets me every time and it is still going strong. Fantastic match, my favorite of the night and Aries finally prevails the victor. Excellent work.

-And now the shocker of the night. Can't say I saw this coming. I was for sure Joe would be going into BFG the champ (he still could), but right now Wolfe is the guy. Ballsy move, but he looks strong and ends Joe's incredible run as champion. Question is where do you go from here with Joe? I look forward to finding out how that goes.

-Overall it was another solid PPV and the big matches were all hits for me and I applaud you on that. Keep up the excellent work man and sorry for the delay on the review. Keep on keepin' on.

The sold out crowd awaits anxiously as they are about to witness the aftermath of the Victory Road event from last Sunday. Pyro welcomes everyone to the Impact Zone as the very sexy Christy Hemme stands in the middle of the ring and introduces us all to the NEW Heavyweight Champion of the World, Desmond Wolfe!

Wolfe’s music plays and blue mist pours out of the entrance tunnel as the newly crowned Champion and his beautiful valet/girlfriend Chelsea walk to the ring to a chorus of thunderous jeers. The fans can’t believe that the smug and arrogant Wolfe was the man who defeated Samoa Joe. The boos become deafening as he steps through the ropes and unbutton his suit jacket to reveal the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. Although his eyes are hidden by sunglasses he cannot hide his smile as he starts laughing at the fans, while Chelsea rubs her hand over the giant gold plating and then gives her man a devilish peck on the cheek.

Wolfe’s music stops as he pauses awaiting for the boos to die down… they don’t. He shrugs his shoulders and smiles at Chelsea who can’t help but seductively smile back at him and laugh at all the “haters” in the crowd tonight. So as the Champion he takes it upon himself to talk over them all.

Wolfe: I’m sorry, were you expecting someone else?

The taunt brings on nuclear heat from the fans as the Champion and his lady laugh together about his words.

Wolfe: I don’t understand what you’re all mad about. I told you I was going to beat that brute. I told you all he was no match for me. I told you over and over that I was going to become World. Heavyweight. Champion. It didn’t matter to each and everyone one of you that Joe’s body was a wreck. It didn’t register with all of you the toll of being a fighting Champion takes on the body. It didn’t even occur to you all that I had already beaten the unbeatable in Bryan Danielson twice and I was heading into Victory Road with more than enough momentum to beat Joe even if he was 100%. All you wankers still thought that Joe was going to win. That he was going to walk into Bound For Glory, and be the champion of the people and give everyone their feel good moment.

Well guess what, look who’s standing in front of all of ya. Not Samoa Joe, it’s me Desmond Wolfe. I have once again beat the unbeatable, and I am the man who will walk into Victory Road and on the biggest stage of them all, show the world I am the very best of the best.

On Sunday night Joe had no where to run and no where to hide and after I hit him with the Jawbreaker Lariat, and the smoke cleared, I am now the best in the world, I am now YOUR World Heavyweight Champion.

So now that I’ve got that all out of the way there is this little detail on who I will be defending my World title against at Bound For Glory. Kurt Angle won some gauntlet match to become one of the competitors in a #1 contender’s match. Who’s he going to be facing to determine who gets to make me immortal at BFG? So Mr. Founder, Jeff Jarrett, bring your carcass out to the ring and tell the Wolfe exactly what is going on…


“My World” plays and out walks the TNA Founder Jeff Jarrett to a great pop from the fans who are sick of hearing from the boasting you Champ. Jarrett steps into the ring and offers his hand to Desmond Wolfe.

Jarrett: First of all I would like to congratulate you on your huge win at Victory Road and becoming TNA’s new World Heavyweight Champion.

Wolfe refuses to take his hand and instead sniffs and stares blankly at Jarrett. Jarrett can only drop his hand and continue. He nods at Wolfe’s all too disrespectful familiar attitude that pro-wrestling brings to newly crowned Champions.

Jarrett: Ok… Well, yes Desmond, you, just like everyone else has the right to know just who will be facing Kurt Angle in a number one contender’s match to face you at Bound For Glory. Victory Road was indeed the beginning of the Road to Glory as we head towards the biggest event in TNA history, Bound For Glory 2011. Starting tonight, will be a tournament to find Kurt Angle’s opponent in the number one contender’s match. And, and, due to the events that occurred at Victory Road, I’ve had to change them slightly. I have now entered the former Champion Samoa Joe into the tournament!!!

The fans go crazy at that announcement, but Wolfe doesn’t seem too concerned, he almost yawns at it.

Wolfe: Geez that’s going to be pretty hard for him since he can’t even walk.

Jarrett: Well Desmond, since he’s the former champion, I’m going to send him straight into the semi-final.

Wolfe: What!?!?

Jarrett: Well like you said, he will no doubt appreciate the time to heal up, and being a former Champion I think he’s entitled to some advantage.

Wolfe settles down and is not going to let Jarrett ruin his day. He gives off a fake smile before whispering something to Chelsea and then rips off his sunglasses.

Wolfe: Well it doesn’t matter who it will be, because at Bound For Glory I will be immortalised, and it will be that easy.
And with that, Wolfe drops his mic as if it’s a signal to Chelsea, who slaps the taste out of Jarrett’s mouth! Wolfe’s music hits and the Champion and Chelsea, walk off leaving Jarrett to hold his jaw.


Jarrett: Wait a minute, wait a minute, cut the Champ’s music. Desmond I think these great fans of ours want to see their Champion in action.

The fans agree and cheer Jarrett putting the screws to the disrespectful Champion.

Jarrett: So tonight how about you go one on one with TNA’s newest signing M.V.P!

Wolfe is really not happy now, as he had no idea he would be competing. The fans cheer as Impact goes to commercial.

******

We return from commercial and Mike Tenay has all the information about the tournament that will decide Kurt Angle’s opponent.

• Rob Van Dam vs. The Pope D’Angelo Dinero
• Bryan Danielson vs. AJ Styles
• Matt Morgan vs. Low Ki
• Samoa Joe goes directly to the second round.

Match #1
Round 1 Road to the title match
Rob Van Dam vs. D’Angelo Dinero


The commentary team talk about how these two men have been getting into each other’s business for what seems like months now and tonight they may just settle their differences to advance in the tournament. The Dinero dollars fall from the sky to a huge ovation as the Pope walks the aisle. He hypes up the crowd as he sets himself to take on RVD. Rob comes out and gets a very mixed reaction. His tactics lately have been not usual to the highflying superstar as he seems to have had enough of trying to “perform” for the fans and start winning Championships.

The bell is about to ring but Rob tells the ref to push the brakes as he grabs a mic. He says that although Pope thinks he is something special he isn’t. R.V.D. is the Whole F’n Show. He si the biggest star around here and it’s about time, he got some f’n respect. And it’ll start with Dinero. The Pope then asks for a microphone and tells Rob to hold on there daddy. Rob may think he’s something special but the Pope is the Cadillac of prowrasslin’ and the Pope’s gonna whoop his ass and move on to headline BFG.

Rob answers Pope with a spinning side kick to the jaw! The ref rings the bell and before Dinero can figure what haoppened he is hit with Rolling Thunder! 1..2.. Pope kicks out and looks for a corner only to be shoulder blocked in the gut. Rob is about to do a monkey flip but he stops himself and just rain downs big shots and elbows to the top of Dinero’s head. Rob then runs to the opposite side of the ring and then comes down with a big hesitation dropkick to the face! Rob drags Pope to the centre of the ring and looks for another pin, but Pope refuses to be put down at 2.

Rob pulls Dinero to his feet and looks for a spin kick, but Pope catches it, and picking up Rob he sprints off his heels and drives Rob’s back into the mat! Rob gets up and falls into the corner but ends up eating a DDEXpress! 1..2.. Kickout!

Pope can’t believe it! Rob’s reputation of being double tough holds up as Pope this time pulls down his knee pads and this time looks to finish. He shoots in but Rob moves out of the way and Pope crashes and burns. Rob quickly leaps to the top turnbuckle and comes down with the split legged moonsault!

But Pope’s knees are up and they drive hard into Rob’s ribs! Modified DDEXpress (Codebeaker) connects!!! 1..2..3!

Winner: The Pope D’Angelo Dinero

Pope’s music plays and the Cadillac of Pro-wrasslin’ advances to the next round of the tournament. The fans cheer the man as he celebrates in the ring as we cut to backstage where Christy Hemme is with TNA’s newest talent acquisition Montel Vontavious Porter, MVP!

Christy welcomes MVP to TNA wrestling and says that he was a huge surprise at Victory Road and almost became in his first night part of the #1 contender’s match for Bound for Glory. MVP replies and says it was a great night and he was feelin’ it and was just one positioning mistake that allowed Kurt Angle to get the win. And when it comes to Kurt you can’t make even the smallest mistake cause he’ll make you pay.

Christy then asks him about tonight and how he feels about being the very first opponent for the newly crowned World Champion Desmond Wolfe. MVP smiles and says Jeff Jarrett keeps giving him great opportunities. Tonight he gets to go against the top dog in the company and show how good he is and when he gets the “W” over the champ tonight, he’ll be that one step closer to a title shot. “Ballin’!”


A black Mustang pulls into the parking garage and out gets Samoa Joe. He limps into the building as we go to commercial.

Match #2
James Storm vs…


Storm is attacked from behind as he comes out of the entrance ramp. His music stops as the powerhouse Shawn Hernandez boots him in the chest down the ramp. Storm’s long over coat covers his face and Shawn lays in some sucker punches. He then biels him up the ramp back up onto the stage area and then beats on him some more. The commentary team can’t believe it as Shawn powerbombs Storm off the stage and through the staging area below!

Hernandez walks over to the commentary table and rips the headset off of Tenay’s head. He screams into it demanding Jarrett put him in the #1 contender’s tournament! He beat up Masters at Victory Road and he wants in. He pie faces Tenay and pushes over the commentary desk in a rage. Shawn then turns into the camera and yells “Give me what is mine!”

The camera guys and ring crew sort of scurry out of his way as he makes his way towards the ramp when suddenly the fans go crazy as blasting out of the speakers is NATION OF Violence! Out of the entrance tunnel, finishing up taping his wrists, limps the former TNA World Champion Samoa Joe! The crowd goes nuts as he stares down Hernandez who stops short. Joe has a mic but can’t seem to get a word in from the thunderous ovation from the fans.

Joe says cut his music. He looks down at Shawn and then the fans and says “Jarrett is damn right in putting me in the second round of this tournament. Hell there shouldn’t be a damn tournament, I’ve got a rematch coming to me! But I don’t roll that way. I don’t accept short cuts and I don’t accept favours. 8 months ago I came out here and in one swoop stopped all that sort of crap happening when I kicked Hogan and Bischoff out of TNA.

“But guess what big Dez, I’m gonna do you a favour. I say instead of me going straight through to the next round, you and I fight right now for that spot!”

The crowd goes nuts! Hernandez tears his singlet off, trying to intimidate Joe, and then dives into the ring and waves him in. Joe smiles and says someone get him a damn referee. Joe’s music plays as he limps down the ramp. Jarrett runs out behind him with a referee in tow and converses with him over what he is doing. He points at his leg and Joe almost dismisses Jarrett and keeps walking. Jarrett shakes his head and walks over to the commentary position.

Match #2 (again)
Round 1 Road to the title match
Shawn Hernandez vs. Samoa Joe


Joe doesn’t even get to the ring, as Hernandez uses his huge body as a human missile as he launches himself over the top rope and crashes down on top of the former Champion! Joe grabs his knee and then his head as Dez gets a blood thirsty look on his face. He rolls Joe back in and the referee rings the bell as Shawn starts stomping on Joe’s knee. He then tries a modified Boston Crab type stretches on Joe’s knee. With his raw power he is even able to put Joe’s knee behind his head and stretch it. Joe roars in pain as he tries to get out of the hold.

Joe grabs the bottom rope to escape the submission as Shawn again stomps down on him with the fans booing him relentlessly. He pick Joe up and looks to whip him across the ring but Joe’s leg gives out again and the 300 pounder falls into a heap. The Mexican Powerhouse has a huge smile on his face and he bounces off the ropes with big elbow shots. He then flies off the top rope with a splash! 1.2. Joe kicks out!

The crowd chant Joe’s name as he desperately tries to get to his feet only to be knocked back down time and time again by his super strong opponent. Joe grabs his knee and tries to smacj some life into it, as Hernandez drags him to the middle of the ring and picks him up looking for the Border Toss. Joe pushes out of it and then hits a big time lariat! Both emn are down as the ref counts. Joe hops to his feet as Dez gets up and they exchange forearm shots. But Joe’s head seems to be harder and he ends up firing in ten good forearms to the face. Dez staggers back and Joe looks for a suplex, but his leg wont let him and Dez shakes off the blows, swictehs and goes behind Joe and delivers a big German suplex!
Joe holds the back of his head as Shawn sets him for the ride and hits the Border Toss into the turnbuckles!!! 1..2..3

No! Joe was in the ropes, the ref continues the match as Hernandez gets in the ref’s face threatening to punch him. But Joe rolls him up! 1..2.. Dez kicks out as Joe’s leg can’t hold down the stronger man. Clothesline from Dez! 1..2.. Joe kicks out! Inverted sitout side powerslam! 1..2… Joe kicks out again!

The fans go crazy and chant Joe’s name again as Dez slaps the mat in frustration. He climbs up top for another splash, but Joe gets to his feet fights through the pain and hits the leaping enzaguri! MUSCLEBUSTAAAAAHH!

1.2.

KICKOUT!!!

Coquina Clutch!!! Joe locks in the rear naked choke and Dez has nowhere to go! Dez taps!!!

Winner: Samoa Joe

Joe rolls away, the fans go crazy and the former Champion gets his hand raised as he lies on the mat in pain. Grasping at his knee Joe takes his time, before rolling out of the ring and making his way to the back.

Backstage AJ Styles is with Christy Hemme he applauds what Joe just did and says that is how Joe is, he is a fighter and no one gives him anything he takes it. AJ adds just like he will tonight. He says that at Victory Road Morgan jumped him and he is a coward, so he hopes Morgan gets to round 2. Because after he beats Bryan Danielson tonight, he’ll be waiting for him.

After the commercial Jeremy Borash is in the ring and introduces the NEW X
Division Champion of the World Austin Aries! Out walks A Double, looking great with his sunglasses and casual looking suit and the one and only X title slung over his shoulder. He thanks Borash for the intro but he’s pretty sure he can take it from here. He says that it has taken quite a while to finally get to this point but with BFG coming up we all knew we had to have a resolution to this X Division quandary we had. "Two Champions at Victory Road walked in and when the smoke cleared only one walked out and it was A Double the Greatest man who ever lived. He says he as to give it to Low Ki he is the most vicious competitor walking god’s green earth and for him to hold this title means something because I had to go through him to get it."

Aries chants starts and he says that he is now the Champion and he will now set the bar even higher and take the X Division to the greatest heights that will not only rival the Heavyweight Division but better it. "In boxing or MMA, no one ever says that a certain weight Division is better than the other. Floyd Mayweather is not a heavyweight and yet he is the most famous boxer on the planet. I am the X Division Champion and I am now the Greatest champion who ever lived. I proved it at Victory Road and I’ll keep on proving it. TNA Wrestling you haven’t seen anything yet!"

Aries’ music hits and he drops the mic to the mat with a big smile. He moves to get out of the ring when the “Greatest Champion who ever lived” is suddenly attacked from behind!!! CANADIAN DESTROYER!!!

Petey Williams “dusts” himself off and picks up the title belt . The boos this man gets are scary as he has laughs at the sold out crowd and holds the belt up in the air before throwing it on the unconscious Champion. Williams’ music plays as we go to commercial.

After the break Christy Hemme catches up with Petey. Petey says Austin’s speech was very inspiring. Indeed his war with Low Ki has made the X Division Championship as great as the Heavyweight title, so guess what. I want it. And now Aries knows it…

Match #3
Round 1 Road to the title match
Matt Morgan vs. Low Ki


The commentary team applaud Jarrett’s inclusion of the former X Division Champion into the tournament by Jarrett. Morgan stomps out and straight away he compares Low Ki’s size to his own. The stone faced Ki doesn’t look impressed and when the bell rings he lashes out with a vicious kick to the knee of the big man. He strikes again and again with lightning speed attempting to chop the big redwood down. Morgan tries to escape and throws a punch, but Ki is too quick and flying off the ropes he drills Morgan in the sternum with a flying double bicycle kick!

Morgan falls to the and as he tries to get to his feet he is down to Ki’s size and gets brutally kicked in the temple!! 1..2.. Morgan kicks out with authority! He tries to shake it off but Ki gfoes to the top rope for another move, but as he flies, Morgan catches him and hits a fall away slam!. Morgan is on the attack now and hits a 9 feet in the air chokeslam!!! Ki bounces off the mat like a superball and falls out of the ring. Morgan laps up the boos as the huge juggernaut of a man picks up Ki like a bag of trash and presses him back into the ring. The ref calls for Morgan to get back in, but he gets his leg clipped by AJ Styles!!! Morgan drops to the floor and AJ dives out of site. The ref starts to count and Morgan tries desperately to beat it. But his knee is shot!

The ref is at 9 when Morgan just rolls back in but he is greeted by a Shining Wizardo and then off the top with the double foot stomp Warriors Way!!! 1.2.3

Winner: Low Ki

Low Ki advances! He rolls out of the ring as the giant man holds his chest. AJ though isn’t finished and he climbs the turnbuckles and hits the Spiral Tap on Morgan!!! The fans go up as Styles’ music plays as AJ has got his revenge on Morgan from Victory Road by denying him a way to the World title match at BFG. We go backstage to Christy Hemme who is with Jeff Jarrett.

Jarrett the long time nemesis of Morgan this year chuckles to himself after watching AJ hit Morgan with the Spiral Tap. “I guess you reap what you sow. Bad luck Morgan haha. Now down to business Christy, the reason I’ve called this interview is to announce that Austin Aries is right. Every championship in their respective division means they are the very best. If you are the Knock Out’s Champion you are the best female wrestler in the world. If you are the Tag Team Champions, you are the very best tag wrestlers in the world. Your Championship means the same as the others because you rule your division. So speaking of the tag team titles, the Motor City Machine Guns on the grandest stage needs the very best opponents. So let’s decide tonight in two fourway tag team tornado matches. One tonight one next week and the winners of each of those matches will head to Bound For Glory to face the Machine Guns for the titles.


Before the match begins the Champions the Machine Guns come out and join the commentary team to scout the players involved!

Match #4
The British Invasion vs. Generation Me vs. Gunner and Kid Kash w/ Isaiah Cash vs. The Amazing Red and Crimson


Crimson makes his debut alongside his big little brother. Gunner and Kash look mean as hell after their loss at Victory Road. The Brits look very confident especially after Magnus’ good showing at the ppv and Gen Me are always ready to go. It’s a crazy free for all match as each team shows off what they can do. It doesn’t take too much time at all for the referee to lose control of the match. With all the chaos going on in and out (and above the ring) the ref misses the giant Isaiah hitting a big boot to Magnus! Gen Me hit their double teams on Kash and Gunner while the Amazing red flies high showing the young Max and Jeremy Buck how it’s done with some “amazing” high flying offence!!!

The veteran Douglas Williams takes advantage and hits the Chaos Theory on a dazed Kash! But the pin is broken up by the new guy Crimson. He hits a lifting spinning sitout spinebuster that mike Tenay says he calls the “Red Sky”. 1..2.. But the pin is broken up by Gunner who then covers Crimson but he doesn’t even geta one count as he is hit with an Infra Red from Amazing Red! The crowd are on their feet as the total non-stop action keeps coming. But it is Magnus who hits a with a flying elbow drop to break up the pin and then cover Gunner who also bore the brunt of the move. 1..2. Isaiah cash pulls the ref out!

Magnus gets in Cash’s face and the two brawl on the outside as Kash hits the Impaler Driver on Red for the win!

Winners: Kash and Gunner

The tattooed team has got another victory and then help their body guard beat down Magnus. Williams comes in to help but all three men beat him up also. They give the sign of the belts and tell the Guns at the commentary booth they are coming for them.

After the break Mike Tenay and Jereemy Borash are standing at the top of the stage and introduce at this time the winner of the Road to Glory Gauntlet match and the first man to enter the #1 contender’s match for the BFG main event, the Olympic Gold medallist, Kurt Angle! He walks out to a huge ovation from the fans as they all chant “welcome back!”. The guys welcome Kurt back from his sabbatical. They say that no one was sure that he would ever wrestle again, after his wars with Petey Williams. And he has returned and showed once again just how good he is by winning the gauntlet match against some of the very best wrestlers in the business today. Before Kurt can say anything the crowd start chanting Angle’s name.

Angle thanks everyone and says it was a scary time for him and his family but he has worked very hard and trained well and told Jarrett and Dixie Carter that he was ready to return and so Jeff put me into the BFG match. He says it was a very tough match for his first back, but is was good to know he can still do what he does best and that’s wrestle. A “You still got it” chant starts up and then another Angle chant starts. The crowd is on fire tonight. Angle says that he has come back for the TNA World title and nothing will stand in his way to get it. He can’t wait to see who he will face for the #1 contender’s spot to face Desmond Wolfe. He says that he and Wolfe have a history and he wants to be the man who faces him at BFG. It’s real it’s damn real.

Tenay and Borash thank Angle but suddenly Roode’s music hits and out walks one of the men that was in the gauntlet match, Robert Roode. Roode snatches the microphone from Mike Tenay and gets in Angle’s face. He tells Angle that the gauntlet match was his to win. How dare he come in unannounced and have an adavnatge over everyone else in that match. Roode says he wasn’t prepared for Kurt Angle but if he had known ahead of time he would have been able to prepare and would have beaten him. He says once again Jarrett is biased towards his cash cows and Angle disgusts him that he walks out here thinking he is something special when he obviously cheated to get that win. Roode says he should be the one going to the #1 contender’s match not Kurt.

Angle asks Roode if he is done? He says that Roode fought very well in the gauntlet match and… Roode slaps Angle across the face!!! “How dare you patronise me Angle!” Roode screams! Angle pauses thinking about the shot he just took to the jaw. He stares Roode in the eyes and says that if he really wants his spot, then why doesn’t he take it? Next week right here on Imapct. Angle vs. Roode for my place in the #! Contender’s match! Roode has gotten exactly what he wanted and a huge smile comes across his face. Roode laughs and tells Angle that he’ll see him next week. Angle smiles back at him but then quickly kicks Roode in the gut and then hits the Olympic Slam on the steel stage!!! The fans go crazy as Angle spits on Roode and holds his arms in the air!!!

Match #5
Round 1 Road to the title match
Bryan Danielson vs. AJ Styles


The commentary team talk about this dream match that we are about to get thanks to the #1 contender’s tournament. Big entrances from both men as we get duelling chants for both men. The atmosphere is electric as Styles and Danielson stare each other down.

They lock wrists and lock up, battle on the mat and trade off. They lock up and Danielson gets a waistlock and both men hit standing switches which turn into both men looking to escape each other’s holds. They battle on the mat and it goes all the way to the outside and a stalemate results. They lock wrists and Danielson bends his arms back. Styles turns it around and pushes him against the ropes. Lockup- Danielson gets a wristlock and Styles goes into the ropes. Lockup- Styles pushes him into the ropes. Danielson forearms him and suplexes him. Styles bails to the floor but the American Dragon follows him out and brings the European uppercuts. Danielson whips him towards the rail but Styles jumps over, lands on his feet and then enziguris Danielson!

Styles kicks him and chops him. Danielson forearms him and they both dive back inot the ring before the ref counts to ten! Styles dropkicks him for a one count. Danielson headlocks him, boots him and tosses him across the ring. Danielson hooks him in the ropes and kicks him. Danielson with an overhead suplex for two. He keeps trying to cover him but Styles won’t go down. Danielson flips him over and works on the arm. Styles kicks and chops him which just pisses Danielson off. Styles backdrops him and bridges up which gets three two counts. Danielson knees Styles and gets a butterfly suplex for two. The fans are chanting all through this one as Dragon kicks Styles in the legs to stop his high flying attacks.

Danielson goes after the arm now, locking it around the ring ropes and placing his palm on the mat and then stomping on the back of the elbow! He is relentless as he keeps drilling the arm. Styles blocks a suplex and suplexes Danielson to the floor!!! Frosbury Flop over the top rope crashes down on Danielson’s head! The fans are on their feet as Styles drops him on the rail. Styles drives his knee into the post and rail. Styles throws him back in and locks in a leglock. Danielson turns it into a half Boston crab! Styles kicks him and twists his arm which takes him down. Styles gets a figure four. Danielson turns it over!

The pace of this match is too fast to call for the commentary team as these two guys are going at an amazing speed. Danielson uppercuts AJ twice and knocks him down and then climbs the ropes and delivers the diving headbutt! 1..2.. Kickout by tyles!

Danielson uppercuts him but eats a Styles elbow. Danielson blocks Styles’ leaping float over inverted DDT and knees him a bunch of times and throws him back first onto the mat. Danielson then looks for an armbar on the arm he has been working onn all match, but AJ locks his fingers to block it. Danielson rips back trying to break his grip, but Styles is able to transition out of it and arm drag Danielson into the turnbuckles! Flying forearm shot!!!
Danielson falls in a heap, but AJ used the damaged arm and he drops to his knees in pain holding it. Danielson looks to take advantage and sprints out fo the corner and hits a flying knee strike to the face! 1…2… Kickout!! The crowd can’t believe Styles kicked out of the brutal shot and neither can Bryan. Danielson hits a back suplex and hooks in Cattle Mutilation but Styles makes the ropes. A frustrated Danielson starts kicking the arm and shoulder of Styles relentlessly and then grabs the arm for the LeBell Lock! Styles is in absolute pain but is able to turn his body and pin Danielson’s shoulders!! 1..2.. Danielson lets go and escapes at 2! BOOM! Kick to the temple 1..2.. Styles kicks out again!!!

Styles’ arm is hanging down as if it is completely destroyed and Danielson goes after it but is lured in with a forearm strike to the face. Both men come off the ropes with cross bodies and it’s like a car crash in the centre of the ring!!! As both men try to pick themselves up off the mat out walks Matt Morgan. He is livid and climbs into the ring. The ref tells him to get out but he sets himself for the Carbon Footprint, both men get to their feet at the same time, but it is Danielson who hits the shot!!!
Morgan rolls out of the ring as the ref calls for the bell. Morgan laughs as the winner is announced.

Winner: Bryan Danielson via Disqualification

Styles realises why he wasn’t attacked now and goes out after Morgan but his arm is too injured and Morgan lays him out with another Carbon Foot print! Morgan roars as both men are out. He laughs as the blueprint has paid back Styles by costing him his shot. But his laughing stops as although he has paid back Styles, it is not enough. He drags the Phenomenal One to his feet and looks to do something final, but Christopher Daniels limps out. He is still in pain from the post match beat down by Jeff Hardy at Victory Road, but is able to push Morgan off to save his friend. Morgan Carbon Footprints Daniels, and the back of the Fallen Angel’s skull bounces off the floor! Morgan seems satisfied now as he walks off leaving three guys laying…

Back from commercial and we go straight into our main event for the evening.


Main Event
Non-title match
World Champion Desmond Wolfe vs. MVP


MVP gets a huge ovation from the fans as he struts into the impact zone with his pyro fuelled entrance. He sets himself in the ring awaiting an opportunity of a life time as out walks the newly crowned Champion. The beautiful Chelsea is on his arm as Wolfe steps into the ring with a very empathetic look on his face. Wolfe demands a mic. He says that this whole thing is a joke. Last Sunday he won the World title and tonight he has to face the newest guy here who hasn’t earned a thing. Wolfe even asks who MVP is! Wolfe says that on Sunday night he defeated the most dominant wrestler this business has ever seen and now Jeff Jarrett disrespects him by making him wrestle … BOOM! Wolfe smashes MVP in the face with the microphone. MVP is grabs his face but before he can realise he is hit by the Jawbreaker Lariat!

TNA’s newest signing is almost knocked out of his boots! Wolfe locks in the London Dungeon on the unconscious MVP as the referee demands him to stop. Wolfe releases the hold and dusts off his hands. Wolfe gives everyone the forks as the crowd boos him out of the building as the ref looks to help MVP. Chelsea helps Wolfe put his jacket and sunglasses back on as the power couple of TNA make their way to the back as we go to the last commercial of the night.

The fans have been treated to a huge show tonight but it’s still not over yet when Jeff hardy’s theme hits the speakers and the fans who had just finished booing the new Champion Wolfe, now boos the Anti-Christ of Professional Wrestling. Flanked by the Monster Abyss and James Mitchell, Hardy walks out to the ring in jeans, a purple shirt and a black tie. He has a long black overcoat and is wearing some sort of purple mask. As the three men step into the ring, Hardy takes his mask off to reveal make-up very similar to Sting’s, which garners even bigger jeers from the fans. Hardy swaps with Mitchell his mask for a microphone as they wait for the boos to stop… They do but ‘Hardy sucks’ chant now reign over the arena. Hardy says that what they think is irrelevant and that there is only one man he wants to hear from. On Sunday he threw out a challenge to a man, but it is now Thursday and there has been no response. “This man you all call an Icon… I call a coward! At Bound For Glory you will face me Sting and I will end your career once and for all.”

Hardy hands the mic to James Mitchell, who can’t help but laugh. “For years, Sting has thought him self TNA’s sheriff. When Planet Jarrett got out of hand, there was Sting. When Abyss was on a rampage. There was Sting. When Hogan and Bischoff created Immortal, there was Sting. But now Jeff hardy and his new Immortal rule this promotion, where is he? Where is your hero? Jeff Hardy has even put forth the challenge, not waiting for Sting to just turn up, he welcomes fighting the so called Icon. But where is he? Where are you Sting? Are you in the rafters? Are you even in the building? I know, you’re at home watching on tv scared out of your mind you coward, because you know you are no match for Jeff Hardy. He will not just take your career, but he will take your name and your legacy and destroy them all. Hahahahahahaha…”

Suddenly the lights go out…. The vid screen lights up, lightning strikes all over the it, when suddenly Sting’s music hits and Sting’s face appears on the screen to a huge cheer from the fans… Sting stares at the ring for what seems like an age and says … “Bound For Glory… It’s Showtime!!!” His music plays again as the TNA Impact goes off the air….

END
 
Jam's Review
Did you just write the opening segment in full? Haha. Dude, you're pretty good so why not continue to write everything in full since you're fully capable? Adding more detail will surely have your thread be a much better read for sure. As for the opening segment, it was pretty standard. You had Wolfe come out and tell everyone that there was no doubt he was winning. I'm sure you caught everyone by surprise with his win over Joe. So no BFG Series for you huh? I was kind of hoping that there would be one so I'd see how it would've been booked since I think I'm approaching that time period really soon. I like the matches you have laid out for tonight especially Styles vs. DB and Ki vs. Morgan, should be a fun read.

Now this was really good to see. I had no idea what you would have done with Joe or if he'd actually appear on this episode. I don't feel for Storm who I hope that you'd book stronger real soon. Your booking of Joe has been excellent to be honest. Even without the title, he's still the embodiment of how TNA should be like. Hernandez is no slouch though so I was glad he was booked pretty strong against Joe, but still not a fan of Hernandez. But his recent showing at Slammiversary was quite good, I must say.

Morgan has been losing a little bit of steam as of late but with this feud involving AJ, I think it can still keep him relevant. I applaud you in bringing over an X-Division guy like Low Ki in the tournament. He can surprise people if you book it that way. I like how you stated that every division is important in TNA. The X-Division in particular, I believe can really outshine the World Title picture. Now I don't know if that's a bad thing, but in my opinion, it wouldn't be since the X-Division is what put TNA on the map!

Interesting that you debut Crimson as a tag team with his “brother” Amazing Red. I think I actually like this idea as it gives the tag team division that one other team it could use. Again, emphasis on the “once great” tag team division that TNA had. You're going in the right direction for this. Glad that Kash and Gunner won as they've really become a tag team over the past couple of shows. They'll surely put on a good with the the 'Guns.

And Morgan just had to destory a really good match that was going on, ohwell. Save that match for another time when you book them to face one another. I'm wondering if the Unbreakable 3 are still a faction since they haven't been helping each other out lately but that can be due to a lot of things. This Morgan/AJ feud is starting to heat up. They'll definitely fight it out at the next Pay-Per-View. As for the whole Roode/Angle debacle, I can't wait for this. That's all I gotta say about it, I'm just truly excited for it.

Hmm, the main event was short-lived due to the attack from Wolfe. I don't know if this was an act to establish himself or so that your show wouldn't be too long since you had a finish that you wanted to do with the whole Hardy/Sting thing. Can't wait for that match to go down between Sting and Hardy, maybe it'll even be the main event. Overall, you moved things nicely and set up some new feuds and that's all we can really ask for. I definitely like your writing of full segments so maybe you'll do a full show when the time is right. Good job GS!
 
SXEnightmare's Review:

Opening segment was pretty good and this was the perfect way to start the show with Wolfe coming out looking forward to seeing who hes gonna face at BFG but one complaint is the whole tournament to decide who will face Kurt Angle seems confusing and uneeded but im sure its gonna lead to some great matches so I can roll with it.

Pope,Joe,Low Ki and Danielson all advance which looks pretty good and it seems Morgan and Styles are gonna go to war very soon which should be pretty good. Hernadez taking out Storm disapointed me im a big Storm fan and I dont like Hernadez so personally I didnt like that but this seems to be another BFG match. Also if Joe can barley walk maybe it wasnt the best decision to put him in action? :shrug:

Other notes im digging the team of Kid Kash and Gunner but as far as this match goes for a fatal 4 way tag team match this seemed a little too short espically considering there was some good teams in it.

Wolfe destorys MVP and proves why he is the top heel right now love it and I wonder if hes gonna have any impact (pardon the pun) on this tournament to decide who will face him for the belt.

Good episode great stuff as usual keep up the good work!

Highlights of last week are shown as the winners of round one of the Road to Glory tournament this week move to round two. All of which seemed very controversial! Kash and Gunner moving to the final round of the Tag team championship tournament. Roode and Angle’s confrontation. Petey Williams attacking the newly crowned X Div. Champ and the new World Champion dispersing of MVP!

*Pyro * Pyro * Pyro *

With the World Heavyweight title around his waist and the gorgeous Chelsea on his arm, the Champion of the World Desmond Wolfe makes his way to ringside. The boos he gets from the crowds seem to get louder and louder at every live event, if anyone thought that was possible! With a pair of sunglasses and a smirk on his face, the champ tells everyone to shut up because he has something to say. Last week he dispatched Jeff Jarrett’s new “big” signing M.V.P. out of the arena like hitting a six in cricket. For all of you ignorant yanks who don’t know what that means, let the champ enlighten you. Jarrett bowled a terrible ball to me, the best batsmen in the world, and smashed it out of the damn park. M.V.P. you were that ball sunshine. Nobody in this business even comes close to being in the champ’s league. At Bound For Glory, Desmond Wolfe will cement his legacy as being the very best by retaining the Championship on the biggest stage in pro wrestling!

But out walks Kurt Angle! The fans go crazy as the returning Olympic Hero from all his injuries with his war with Petey Williams makes his way into the ring. He stands eye to eye with the champion, as the fans chant his name. His music stops and Angle is about to speak but the champ cuts him off quickly. “Oh look who it is, it’s Mr Mangled!” How are ya Mr Mangled? Feeling refreshed?” Angle pauses, grins and tells Wolfe that Kurt Angle is only one match away from going to BFG and making the champ tap for the title. And that is damn real. It’s Wolfe turn to grin as he looks at Chelsea and takes a step back.

Wolfe says that Angle can come out here all he wants, but just like Joe, Kurt is nothing but a broken down shell of a man who cannot compete at the highest level any more, especially since Desmond Wolfe has taken that level higher than anyone else has ever seen before. Kurt isn’t in his league and if he is lucky enough, yep lucky enough, to face him at BFG. He’ll end his career.

Chelsea then goes for the big slap like last week, but Angle blocks it! Chelsea is shocked as Angle grabs her wrist with lightning speed and then pulls her out of the way throwing her to the mat, so she doesn’t block Wolfe. Wolfe comes over the top with a big right hand but isn’t quick enough and Kurt lays in two big shots! He whips him into the ropes, but Wolfe grabs the top rope and dives out of the ring as quickly as he can! Angle stands in the middle of the ring looking down at Wolfe as his music plays, while Wolfe grabs Chelsea and they exit trash talking as Angle gives the sign of the belt…

But, the opening segment is not over yet as out walks Robert Roode! Wolfe and Chelsea stands in the middle of both men, as Roode makes his way down the ramp, talking as he goes. He tells Angle that he is a cheat and that he should not be the first man in the #1 contender’s match for the BFG main event, Robert Roode should be! He challenges Angle right here tonight to put his opportunity on the line tonight against him! Angle tells Roode tha he just came back from what eh thought was career ending injuries. The doctors told him he would never wrestle again, little-own wrestle again for the World title. If Roode thinks he is going to just give that up just so he can shut Roode’s mouth… then he’d be right! If Robert Roode is stupid enough to get into the ring with Kurt Angle than it is on his head. See you tonight Roode! Kurt’s music plays again, while Roode smiles as he has gotten exactly what he wanted…

Backstage TNA Founder Jeff Jarrett is being interviewed by Christy Hemme over the so far controversial Road to Glory tournament results. Morgan was attacked by AJ Styles and cost Morgan the match. While Morgan blatantly attacked Bryan Danielson, having AJ Styles lose the match by disqualification. Jarrett said that last week he watched both matches and said that each man reaps what he sows. AJ Styles cost Matt Morgan his match and therefore Morgan did the same to AJ. Over the last week, Jarrett says he received a phone call from each man. One from Matt Morgan, whining and complaining about his opportunity being stolen from him, and the other from AJ Styles who wants revenge on Morgan for what he did to him at Victory Road and he wants a match at Bound For Glory against the 7 foot giant. So that’s exactly what is going to happen, at BFG, it will be the Phenomenal One AJ Styles taking on Matt Morgan in a street fight!

Match #1
Shawn Hernandez vs. James Storm


This match was scheduled last week, but big Dez attacked Storm from behind on the ramp way and then brutally beat on him before powerbombing him off the top and through the staging area below! The commentary team asked Jeff Jarrett when they saw this match booked if Storm would even be able to compete tonight, in which the Founder stated that Storm demanded the match. The replay of the incident is shown to the live crowd as Hernandez walks out, his arms outstretched getting huge boos from the fans. He scoff s at the them before the crowd comes alive, and Hernandez has made a big mistake… James Storm has come running out as Dez turns to face the man but ends up getting a beer bottle smashed over the top of his skull to the delight of the fans! Glass flies every where as Dez’s forehead is busted wide open! Blood streams out like ta tap, as the powerhouse inexplicably slowly gets to his feet. But the man is on dream street and as the fans chant Storm’s name he nails him with the Last Call superkick to a huge pop from the fans! The fans are going ballistic as the Cowboy’s music plays as he stands over the big man and pulls two beets from his long coat. He opens them, takes a big drink out of both and then pours the remainder on Dez as we go backstage…

Angle is backstage and Christy catches up with him asking him about putting his opportunity on the line so close to Bound For Glory. Angle says that to be the Champion of the World he needs to be ready. He needs to stay sharp. He hjas only wrestled one match in months and that was a gauntlet match at the ppv. He needs to get rid of that one on one ring rust and against a top contender. If he can’t beat Roode, then he shouldn’t be the one fighting for a shot at Wolfe at Bound For Glory. Tonight he proves all the nay-sayers wrong. Tonight Kurt Angle, the wrestling machine, the greatest wrestler of all time, is back.

- commercial -​

Out to the ring walks the World Tag Team Champions, the Motor City Machine Guns. They talk about last week’s four way tag match and how Kash and Gunner again got a chance to face them at BFG for the titles. Tonight will be another four way match and hopefully they see better title contenders than the talentless Kash and Gunner win this match!

Match #2
MVP and Chris Masters vs. Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt vs. Kazarian and Rob Van Dam vs. Bobby Lashley and Masato Yoshino


The fans are amazed at these tag teams that have been put together to be apart of this mini tournament to take on the Guns at Bound For Glory. The finesse and power of MVP and Masters. The speed and high flying of Lethal and Dutt. The new found attitude of RVD joining up with the psychotic Kaz. And the Speed and the muscle of Lashley and Yoshino! The Guns join commentary and even they can’t believe the teams that are in this match. Mike Tenay even says that RVD wanted to enter the match by himself, as his ego has been running wild the last few weeks, but Double J said he had to have a partner and so was “assigned” Kazarian!

Masters, Lethal, RVD and Lashley start the match off. They pair off, trying to take the other one down. When one man looks to get a cover, the other two break it up. The tag ins and outs are fast and furious as each team looks to gain the upper hand. Lashley starts trhwoing guys around and looks to dominate until he gets kicked in the face by a ruthless RVD! Rob doesn’t seem to be in any mood to showboat for the fans tonight as he flies over the top rope and crashes down on Lashley on the outside!

As the match goes on, the commentary table is invaded by Kash and Gunner. They get in the Guns’ faces and slap the head phones off their heads! A brawl breaks out as Tenay, Borash and West all run for cover.
The explosive Yoshino hits move after move on others in the ring as his speed seems too much for the other competitors. But he is stopped in his tracks by a leaping facebuster from Kazarian! But Kaz is hit with an overdrive by MVP! The cover though is broken up by RVD who flies back into the ring with a 5 Star Frog Splash! 1..2.. Masters breaks up the pin and puts Rob in the MasterLock! But Lashley put Masters in a Full nelson of his own and throws both men over the top rope in an amazing show of strength! Dutt hits a dropkick to Lashley’s face and Lethal attempts the Lethal Injection but Lashley pushes the smaller man off and hits a big boot! Dominator on Lethal!! 1..2.. Kazarian hits a top rope guillotine leg drop to the back of Lashley’s head! 1..2.. Dutt pulls Kazarian off of the cover and looks for a brain buster but is speared by Yoshino and all three men fall on top of each other in a big nasty heap!

Security finally come out and break up the brawl between, Shelley, Sabin and Kash, Gunner. The Champs trash talk them about having the belts as they are both ejected from ringside. The commentary team finally get back on play by play..

MVP pulls Lashley to his feet and both men exchange shots, but MVP ducks a big elbow and scoop slams the big man. Ballin’ elbow gets a 2 count as RVD hits a rolling thunder and then a split legged moonsault! 1.2.. Lashley and MVP both kick out! Kazarian spears Lashley through the ropes and Van Dam rolls up MVP for the 3!

Winners: Rob Van Dam and Kazarian

Kazarian comes over to RVD to hug him and raise his hand, but Van Dam drops his partner with a side kick! Rob does the thumbs saying he did it all himself and he will have the tag titles soon enough!

Match #3
Round 2 Road to Glory Tournament
The Pope D’Angelo Dinero vs. The Warrior Low Ki


The Pope pumps up the crowd to a fever pitch before the intense and vicious former X Champion walks out. Low Ki looks at the Pope like food, before he steps through the ropes and sets himself for the match. The match starts with Pope tripping up Low Ki, rolling him up quickly, but only gets a one count. Both roll around on the mat countering each other, Pope applies a headlock, but Ki counters into an elbow submission. Pope rolls out of it and misses a sidekick and Ki takes him down quickly. Pope responds with a big “Pimp Slap” and then a leaping shoulder tackle that sends the Warrior to the outside of the ring. Pope baseball slides, but Ki sidesteps it and hits a big time chop that knocks Pope off his feet. Pope looks to stand but is blasted in the temple by one of Ki’s vicious kicks.

Pope falls like tree and Low Ki soaks up the holy shit chants from the ringside fans as the ref starts the count. Ki waits patiently for Pope to get to his feet and bicycle dropkicks Pope’s sternum so hard he flies off his feet backwards and crashes spine first into the steel barricade! Ki then rolls into the ring and tells the ref to count. The ref restarts the ten count and the Pope must get back in or lose the match.

The fans chant Pope’;s name and stirs him on to just make the ring at the count of 9. Low Ki starts stomping down on him and then sends him into the corner. Low Ki hits the Tidal Krush! 1..2… Pope kicks out! Low Ki looks to finish and climbs the turnbuckles for the Double foot stomp, but Pope moves out of the way at the last second. Ki rolls through and gets to his feet only to be hit by a big time clothesline in the centre of the ring. Pope gives Ki a suplex and back suplex combo. 1..2.. Ki kicks out, and Pope pulls his knee pads down for the DDE. He runs in but is swatted away landing on his arm. Ki targets the arm and starts blasting ti with stiff kicks. Ki then looks to lock in an armbar, but Pope pushes the smaller man off and hits a discuss elbow! 1..2.. Ki kicks out! But Ki gets to his feet light lightning and hits a brainbuster!!! 1..2.. Pope kicks out!

Low Ki hits a Huricanranna and then applies a flying armbar! Pope is in disbelief and he screams in pain. Low Ki wrenches back on it , and Pope desperately throws himself and Low Ki into the turnbuckles! Both men are down and the referee starts to count. They get to their feet and Ki hits a kick to Pope’s leg. Pope counters with a chop. Ki hits another leg kick. Pope counters again with a chop, but then he follows up with his 4UP combo and is about to end it with his pimp slap uppercut, but Ki hits his leg kick for the third time in the same spot and the pain buckles Pope to the mat! Ki then hits a leaping double foot stomp! 1.2.. Pope kicks out!

Ki launches Pope backwards in an inverted DDT type suplex, allowing him to land on the top rope. Ki then scales the top rope and drops the leg! 1…2… Pope kicks out again! Pope is in big trouble and Ki goes for the arm again, but Pope quickly counters the hold and rolls the Warrior up..1…2… Ki just barely kicks out at 2 and a half! Pope grabs his arm, he limps on his leg as Ki runs in for another big strike but Pope gets his boot up, and catches Ki in the jaw. Ki turns right into a modified DDE (Codebreaker) 1..2…

Ki kicks out!!!

Ki gets off the mat out of instinct and ends up in the corner. DDE!!!!! 1.2.3

Winner: The Pope D’Angelo Dinero

The Pope celebrates his victory as his “congregation” goes crazy! Pope moves on in the tournament to the final round to determine who will face Kurt Angle in the #1 contender’s match.

Backstage Christy Hemme is with Bryan Danielson. Christy asks Bryan about his controversial win last week and Jeff Jarrett having the referee decision stand. Danielson said that he did not want to win that way. He respects AJ Styles and they were having a classic match before Matt Morgan got in their business and actually hit Danielson in the face with the Carbon Footprint to cost AJ the match. He says that although he moves on in the tournament, he is going to remember Morgan’s attack fro another time. If Morgan thinks he is off the hook from the American Dragon he better think again.

As for tonight he has his biggest test to date here in TNA., in the form of the former World Heavyweight Champion, Samoa Joe. Last week Joe wrestled on one leg and still defeated Shawn Hernandez. This week he’s sure Joe would have heeled a up a lot. He may not be 100%, but in the professional wrestling business who truly is 100%. Tonight he will go out there and take it to Joe, like no one has ever before and he will show the world he is ready for Bound For Glory. He has lost twice to Desmond Wolfe, and he would think of no better retribution than beating Joe and Angle and then taking the Gold off of Wolfe on the biggest stage of them all! But it all starts with Joe tonight…

Cameras catch the Machine Guns and Kash/Gunner fighting in the backstage area and security having to separate them. Shelley and Sabin trash talk Kash and Gunner as they are moved to another part of the building. Alex and Chris are being calmed down by Velvet Sky and Angelina Love when into camera frame walks Rob Van Dam. He looks them up and down and says that he is the reason guys like him even exist in this business. RVD says that he is going to be the one they will have to face at BFG and he is going to take their belts by showing them how it’s done. Rob is about to walk off but stops and says he almost feels sorry for them…

Ringside, and Hardy’s music hits and out to the ring walks his manager Father James Mitchell. Mitchell says that Jeff Hardy is the bringer of Sting’s doom and now that Sting has foolishly accepted Hardy’s challenge, the entire wrestkling world will be on hand to witness the end of the Icon’s career at his hands. For years Hardy has honed his body into a weapon, and that weapon has been sharpened by his now resolve to take over the entire world, and the only way to achieve that is to snuff out Sting before he can try and derail Hardy’s destiny. Sting will fall at the feet of Hardy’s might and then be crushed under his heel on TNA’s grandest stage. Then and only then will everyone realise that there is no where to run, no where to hide from the new utopia that Hardy will bring to you all. Hahahahahahaha. Hardy’s music hits as the fans boo him.

The commentary team talk about how last week Sting accepted Hardy’s challenge, but does the Icon know exactly what he is getting himself into as Mitchell holds the reins of the Monster Abyss to back Hardy up!

Match #4

All three KnockOut’s enter the ring ready to get it on and find out who is the best and move to face Alissa Flash. The ref is just about to signal for the bell when out walks the KO Champion! She blows them all a kiss and then takes a seat with the commentary team. Gail, Kong and Tara all look at the champ and look to send her a message in their own way. Kong though turns and immediately double clotheslines both girls and then looks for a pin! Tara kicks out at one and then she covers Gail only to get a one count also.
Kim and Tara try to irish whip Kong, but Kong throws the two into each other and then follows it up with another double clothesline! Kong sends them both into the corner, but only splashes Kim when Tara moves out of the way. Tara then dropkicks Kong against the ropes and then tries to throw her over the top rope. Kim goes up to the top rope and drops a knee to the back of Kong's head to send her over to the floor!

Kim on the apron ducks a shot from Tara and then hits a shoulderblock through the ropes, and then flies over the ropes with a sunset flip for a 2 count! Tara gets up but Gail’s speed has her hit a neckbreaker for another 2! Kong though gets back in and Kim attempts a cross-body onto Kong, but Kong catches her!

Tara gets back up and when Kong gets to a knee she drives a running elbow strike into her forehead! 1..2.. Gail makes the save!

Tara and Gail then get into a shouting match, Tara wont have any of it and slaps the taste out of Gail’s mouth! Gail holds her face as Tara then whips her off the ropes and hits a Thez Press! A couple of shots to the face and then she transitions into an armbar! Gail screams in pain, but Kong stomps Tara to break up the submission hold. Kong brings Tara to her feet while Gail holds her arm in pain. But Tara swats Kong’s hold away and hits her with some chops, but Kong gets a knee lift and then comes off the ropes for a clothesline, but is caught by a dropkick! Kong again is down, as Tara looks to apply an armbar to her. But Kong powers out and an awesome show of strength lifts her up and drops her on her head! 1..2.. Gail still holding her dropkicks Kong to make the save.

Kong is not impressed and goes after Kim with big shots and stomps. The KO Champ Flash is enjoying every minute of this match as Tara hits Kong with a kick to the gut and then looks for a suplex, but Kong blocks it and pushes her off. She ducks a Kong right hand and then hits a spine buster! But Gail explodes out of the corner and hits a spear to Tara! The crowd go crazy as Gail climbs the turnbuckles and hits the moonsault on Kong! 1…2… Kickout!

Kim attempts a crucifix pin on Kong, but Kong counters and goes for a spinning back fist. Kim dodges that and drops her knees into the face of Kong. Tara dropkicks Kong in the knees. Kim and Tara exchange rights on Kong and then hit a double dropkick! Kim covers, but Tara breaks it up. Tara covers and Kim breaks that up. Kim takes out Tara with a clothesline, goes after Kong, but Kong catches her in a cross-body attempt. Kong gets tripped up but the pinfall gets broken up. Kong drops Kim face first into the ring and then splashes her with a huge splash!!!! 1..2… Tara breaks up the pinfall and then chops Kong a few times. Kong with an Implant Buster on Tara!!! Kong goes for the cover but EATS DEFEAT!!! 1..2..3!

JAM's Review

It seems that you're very high on Kurt Angle since he interrupts the champion. This is a real feel good story having Kurt back and would love to see him as the World Champion. I still can't take Wolfe as a serious World Champion for some reason but I'm sure I'll be convinced soon enough. Not really liking how Roode just demands an opportunity for Angle's spot but I get that Angle is someone who is willing to risk what he has to prove a youngster wrong. These two could have a really good feud, especially match-wise, they'll put on a show.

Hmm, a random tag team of Kazarian and RVD? It could work, but I'm not really a fan of random tag team partners, but then again, this could very well work out. But I don't see anyone toppling the champions right now, so we'll have to see. Danielson vs. Joe? Oh man, it's about to go down!

With the way that Angle/Roode match went down, it leads me to believe that Angle may be the #1 Contender for the title. Again, I wouldn't mind this. But then again, it could just be a way for Wolfe to gain some heat while Angle resumes his feud with Roode.

The main event was really good. Not sure if that was a good ending but it makes both guys not seem weak especially Danielson after just a schoolboy pin. Judging from this, it could be Joe going up against Wolfe to try and regain his title, I'm not sure.

Overall, this episode didn't seem like much. Just had some awesome matches and some backstage interviews while setting up your main feud for the World Title which is a good thing. Also, you got me guessing as to who will face Wolfe for the title so that's good as well. Keep writing GS, you're probably the most consistent one here. Awesome job!
 
SXEnightmare's Review

Loved the opening segment just when I thought we were setting up for a Angle vs Wolfe match we get Roode coming out and looking forward to seeing Roode and Angle battle it out.

Storm got some nice revenge on Hernadez and my guess is the first match between them will happen at BFG and for once im beginning to like a storyline with Hernadez in it.

Tag match I enjoyed but not really liking any of the pairings you have here Kaz & RVD might be a intersting team though but I fully expect Kash & Gunner to get a rematch against The Guns.

Pope advacing again love it im hoping he pulls off the upset and wins this tournament but I see that as a long shot at best.

Womens match was pretty good not sure I like Kim winning I was hoping to see Kong win but mainly im just hoping somebody beats Flash she doesnt impress me really.

Angle vs Roode went exactly as expected....besides the fact Angle won I actullay thought Roode would pull off the victory by cheating my guess is were heading towards Angle vs Joe for the chance to face Wolfe.

Main event time and match of the night for me right here Joe knocks Danielson out of the tournament as expected for me but I thought Danielson had 1 more round before being eliminated oh well. I will be very surprised if Joe doesnt get his rematch at BFG.

Overall good show man keep up the good work cant wait for BFG.

The Road to Glory continues tonight as Bound For Glory the grandest stage in professional wrestling is on the horizon. Personal Jesus plays and the crowd comes alive as down the ramp walks the X Division Champion of the World, Austin Aries. Aries steps into the ring with the his title belt over his shoulder and he doesn’t seem to be in a good mood. He waits for the ovation from the fans to die down before he addresses the man who attacked him two weeks ago.

Aries says that last week he wasn’t at Impact because his skull was driven into the mat by the coward Petey Williams. He was attacked from behind and then was hit by the Canadian Destroyer flip piledriver. He says that if Petey Willaims wanted his attention he’s got it. He says that he went through hell with Low Ki and came out the other side with the Championship, and Williams if he wants to fight him, if he wants to take on the greatest man who ever lived then all he had to do was ask. But it seems that is not how Petey Williams does things. He would rather stab someone in the back and take what doesn’t belong to them rather than fight and earn it. Aries says that Williams tried it with Kurt Angle and now he’s tried with Austin Aries. So if Petey Williams wants a title shot, all he has to do is walk down the ramp, step into this ring and ask me like a man and I’ll give it to him. Aries puts the belt on the mat as iof he is drawing a line in the sand. C’mon Petey.

There is a pause and Petey’s music hits and out walks the smirking Canadian Destroyer. Williams slowly and cautiously steps through the ropes keeping an eye on Aries the whole time. Aries steps back allowing Williams to enter the ropes so he can get him in the ring with him. Williams seems a little surprised, and his confidence rises as his smile gets bigger. He points at the gold on Aries’ shoulder and tells him, it was nothing personal “American”, simply business. Petey says he has spent the year showing the world that Canada is the home land of professional wrestling and no one gets up from the Destroyer. He tells Aries that at Bound For Glory he will teach the world about Canadian dominance when he takes the X Division Championship from Aries.

Austin subtly nods his head, he absorbs Petey’s words, and says that he agrees with Petey, when he attacked him like a coward it was all business… for him… but for Austin Aries… it’s personal. Aries drives the microphone into the face of Williams! Williams tries to roll out of the ring, but Aries grabs his foot and drags him into the middle of the ring. Petey looks to slip out of his jacket to escape Aries’ clutches, but Aries pulls him and looks for a Brainbuster. Petey though does push away and falls out of his jacket and to his knees. Big mistake, BOOM! Aries hits the punt to the head! The crowd roars as they all know what’s coming next! Brainbustaaaaaah! NO! Petey is able to flip out of it and quickly dive out of the ring in a panic and to the floor. The crowd goes crazy as Austin Aries grabs the mic and his belt and says he’ll see Petey at BFG.

The commentary team say that tonight they have two big matches as the tag teams of Gunner and Kid Kash and RVD and Kazarian will fight it out to be the team to face The Guns for the titles. And tonight’s main event, The Pope D’Angelo Dinero will collide with former World Champion Samoa Joe to decide who will move to face Kurt Angle next week.

Backstage there is a commotion as the cameras go back there to see security getting in between MVP and the World Champion Desmond Wolfe. MVP says he has a score to settle with Wolfe. Desmond pushes the security off him and straightens his suit jacket. He points his fingers over the top of the wall of security staff and tells MVP if he wants to go they’ll do it tonight. He says he’ll see him later. MVP yells at Wolfe to prepare himself for a beat down. Wolfe walks off as an angry MVP tells security to get their hands off him.

Match #1
Magnus, Bobby Lashley and Chris Masters vs. Robert Roode, Abyss and Shawn Hernandez


As this 6 man tag match starts off the fans cannot believe the amount of muscle in the ring. This match has nothing to do with finesse as each man uses their strength to beat their opponents into submission.
It’s almost an all out brawl and the ref tries to get control as the egos heat up and each man try to show they are ready for Bound For Glory. In amongst the chaos, Hernandez clotheslines Magnus over the top rope and then flies over the top to the floor using his body as a missile! But he didn’t see that the Cowboy James Storm had come down to ringside and as Hernandez came down on MAGNUS, Storm knocked him out in mid air with a super kick!

Dez crashes and burns on the floor, and Magnus rejoins his team in a two on one dynamic. Storm trash talks the out cold Hernandez, as Lashley hits a Dominator on Roode, he is smashed by a BalckHole Slam by Abyss! Abyss drops to his knees for a cover but Masters tries to lock in the MasterLock on him. Abyss is able to push Masters off only to be hit by a big boot from Magnus! Masters hits a lifting spinning sitout spinebuster on the Monster!!!
1..2.. Abyss kicks out only to be DDT’d by Magnus..1..2.. Abyss kicks out again. BOOM! Magnus comes off the top rope with a sky elbow to the Monster’s heart! 1..2..3!

Winners: Bobby Lashley, Chris Masters and Magnus
The crowd eat up the fast paced ending and the win by the muscle-bound good guys. As the ref raises their hands in the middle of the ring, Roode on the outside grabs a chair. He slides in behind them and knocks down Lashley! Magnus and Masters react, but Roode dives out of the ring before either of them can grab him. Roode backs up the ramp trash talking them as he leaves as Impact goes to commercial.

Match #4
Non-title match
World Champion Desmond Wolfe vs. MVP


MVP is out first with his big time inflatable entrance, pyro and dance moves. He makes his way to the ring and rubs his hands together waiting to take on the top guy here in TNA. It takes awhile but out the wolf howls, the blue mist appears and the Champ walks out with the gorgeous English rose Chelsea on his arm. In his long coat and the gold belt around his waist he makes his way to the ring to face the man he took out two weeks earlier to prove a point to management and the boys in the locker room.

Chelsea disrobes Desmond and takes his title and his sunglasses. The ref even sits on the rope for her as she leaves. Wolfe even gives the ref a bit of look to say get your eyes off my property… MVP chews his gum as he looks focussed to extract some revenge.

MVP moves towards Wolfe and Wolfe quickly moves out of the way. Wolfe backs MVP into the corner and puts his hand in his face. MVP pushes him and the referee breaks it up. Wolfe gets in a few elbows and forearms to the back. MVP slides under Wolfe and gives him a quick arm drag. MVP takes out Wolfe with a big right hand and attempts a suplex , but Wolfe blocks it each time. Wolfe suplexes MVP and covers him with a big forearm in the face.

Winner: Desmond Wolfe

Wolfe catches his breathe but is able to give the crowd a big smile. He spits on MVP before the ref raises his arm in victory. Chelsea enters the ring and he stands in the middle of the ring as his beautiful valet places the belt around his waist. And then gives him his sunglasses. Wolfe taps the belt and then flips the forks to the fans as he laughs at them and walks off triumphant.

Backstage the Pope is with Christy Hemme, he flirts with her before saying that this is his time. Joe has been at the top of the mountain for a year and a day, but eh never faced the Pope for the belt. And now with all his momentum, he will be the one to show Joe that he is going to be the one to stand on the grandest stage and hold the belt high. It is his time and not even Samoa Joe is going to get in the way of that. He has been scouting Joe, he knows he is injured and once the bell goes he will zero in and capitalise on all of them. This is for all the marbles and if Joe wants to fight then he will have to be prepared to have those injuries exploited. The Cadillac of pro wrestling has spoken.

Match #5
Rob Van Dam and Kazarian vs. Kash and Gunner w/ Isaiah Cash


RVD and Kazarian come out with separate entrances. Kaz and Rob eyeball each other, they obviously haven’t spoken since last week when RVD took out his own partner and soaked up the victory for himself. Rob looks to start the match, but Kazarian steps in front of him and signals for their opponents to face him. RVD is not impressed but the ref tells him to get onto the apron. The match starts right away with Kash and Kazarian locking up. The two men start working each other’s arms. It goes back and forth as they look for an advantage.

A special interview with Kurt Angle by Mike Tenay is played when we return from commercial break. Kurt and Mike sit down and have a candid conversation about how Kurt is approaching the upcoming match for the BFG Main event title match spot.

Tenay thanks Kurt for his time and asks him how his body is holding up. Kurt talks about his injured neck. The toll his war with Petey Williams took on it. How the pressure of maybe never not only wrestling again ad walking again put strains on his relationships, and the move towards rehabilitation, training and returning to the ring at Victory Road and in a big comeback winning the Road to Glory gauntlet match.

Kurt said that Dixie Carter had been checking on him constantly and giving him much needed support. He knew he was ready to comeback and was entered into the Gauntlet match. He thought it would be a good test for him, but when it comes to himself, only the best is good enough and it was always his goal to not only survive the match but to win it. Then when Robert Roode challenged him, he thought that he had to prove to himself that eh could handle being the Champion of the World once again, and so put his spot on the line to prove he is ready to once again be the top guy in this industry.

Tenay asks him who he thinks he will be facing next week Pope or Joe. Angle says he hasn’t wrestled the Pope before, but he knows how good Samoa Joe is. The man is a killer, he shows no remorse in the ring and wants to be the very best. However Joe has been carrying injuries and shouldn’t even be wrestling right now, but his drive and his pride keep him going much like Kurt Angle, the true heart fo a champion beats in Joe’s chest. It is a tough call as Pope has already defeated Desmond Wolfe before, so he knows he can beat the Champ, he just doesn’t know if he can beat Joe or myself, but if he can get through those two hurdles he will be confident to become World Champion on the biggest stage of them all, BFG 2011.

Whoever Kurt Angle faces, I will be ready as this is all that he is. A wrestler and a winner. Second best is not good enough, he didn’t come back to put butts in seats he came back to be the Champion, and next week whoever he has to face, Pope or Joe, he will be ready to stand in the ring at Bound For Glory and complete his comeback story.

Backstage we see Samoa Joe getting ready as hs Unbreakable 3 team mates AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels give him last minute advice as we go to another commercial.

Main Event
Road to Glory Final Round Match
The Pope D’Angelo Dinero vs. Samoa Joe


The Pope enters the arena with money falling from the sky, the fans are pumped up and the congregation is in full voice tonight. Then out walks Joe, he is flanked by Styles and Daniels as they are in his corner tonight. Pope questions their motives to the refs but Styles and Daniels put their hands in the air, pat Joe on the back and make their way back stage leaving it a one on one contest.

The bell rings as pope dances around Joe, circling him, keeping his eyes on Joe’s well known injured knee. The sold out crowd start duelling chants as “Let’s go Pope” and “ Let’s go Joe” thunder through the arena. Joe keeps his eye on the Pope, knowing his movement is limited. They lock up and Joe pushes Pope to the ropes. The referee breaks it up as Joe backs off. Lock up again and Joe gets a headlock on. Pope pushes out of it and off the ropes hits a shoulder block, to no effect. Joe tells Pope to try again. Pope does so, but Joe once again absorbs the shoulder and then pie faces him and says try again. Pope tries again but this time it is his leaping Shoulder tackle! Joe is driven down and hits the mat hard! The fans go up as Joe rolls to a corner. Pope with a big smile as Joe shakes off the shot to his shoulder and gets back into the match.

Lock up again, this time Joe goes for a hammerlock and then steps on the back of Pope’s leg bringing him to a knee. Joe let’s go of the hold and blasts Pope in the back and the arm with a big brutal kick! Back senton! Cross face, then a big shot across the nose! Poep grabs his face in pain and quickly rolls into a corner to escape the barrage from the former Champ. Joe is now the one with a smile on his face.

Pope moves in for another lock up but kicks the knee instead. Joe swings but it’s ducked and Pope hits a big arm drag on the 300 pounder! Drop kick to the back of the head and gets a cover for two! Joe gets up but is hit with a clothesline, irish whip but Joe catches Pope with a big elbow. Poep though on the mat sweeps Joe’s leg from under him bringing crashing down on his back to the mat. Cover! 1..2.. Joe kicks out with authority! Pope brings Joe up and starts laying in Bionic Elbow shots to the top of Joe’s head and then with the big swirl hits a huge Pimp Slap! Pope with a big smile is proud of himself but turns right into an enraged Samoan Submission Machine open palm strike storm! Pope is blasted in the face over and over forcing him into the corner. Leaping spin enzaguri!!! 1..2… Pope kicks out only just but Joe transitions into his submissions. Pope escapes one only to be put into another. Joe keeps mixing it up looking for the victory, but Pope is too close to the ropes and the ref breaks up the last hold.

Pope thinks he can rest but is smashed by the Face wash! Joe puts Pope up on the topr turnbuckle, big open palm strike and it’s Muscle Buster time. But Pope escapes sprints off hits the ropes and as Joe turns he is hit by the Pope’s STO! 1..2.. Joe kicks out! Joe stumbles to his feet and falls in the corner. Big knee in the corner, and then a forearm smash. Joe covers up but pope goes for a combo of punches, forearms and chops. Joe pushes his way out of the corner, only to be hit with a drop toe hold and then an elbow drop to the spine! Pope turns him over but Joe kicks out before a count can be made. Pope pulls his knee pads down and slaps his knees ready to finish the match. Joe rolls out of the ring to catch his breathe. Pope keeps the pressure on and grabs the top rope and springs his legs through the ropes to Joe’s face sending him crashing into the guardrails!

As Joe gets to his feet Pope chases him and starts going after his knees. Big chopblock from behind and Joe drops! Pope starts stomping on Joe’s knee as the ref tells both men to bring it back inside. Pope helps Joe to his feet only to throw him head first into the steel steps! Pope then walks up the steps and drops down with another stomp to the knee!

Pope rolls in and tells the ref to count out Joe. Joe is in serious pain once again and he has to try and get to his feet. He roars as he seems to refuse to lose the tournament by a count out. He pulls himself up and at the count of 8 rolls back in. Pope goes after the knee again. He drapes Joe’s foot over the bottom rope and cannonballs down on the knee! Joe screams in pain and rolls away holding it. The ref asks Joe if he wants to stop, but he swats him away. Pope garbs Joe in a front chancery and looks for a suplex, but Joe pushes him off, Pope hits a big right hand and pushes Joe into the corner. DDE time! He sprints in but Joe catches him and with one hand slams him into the mat! Pope bounces off the mat like a ball and Joe drops to the mat as the ref counts both men.

They get to their feet and they exchange punches, but Pope again kicks the knee! Joe drops to a knee and Pope comes off the ropes!

DDE to the face!

NO! Countered!

DESPERATION DECAPITATION CLOTHESLINE!!!

Pope gets turned inside out and Joe drapes his arm over Pope...

No! Pope gets the shoulder up!!!

Joe looks to lock in the rear-naked choke, but Pope hits a modified stunner to break it up and then snapmares Joe over him. Modified DDE (Backstabber)!!!!! 1..2… Joe kicks out! Joe kicks out!!!!

Pope slaps the mat and gets in the corner looking again for another DDE. Joe limps to his feet Pope comes in but Joe school boys him! 1..2… Pope kicks out! Joe rolls him up again! 1..2.. Pope escapes and kicks Joe in the head! Suplex! Pope climbs up the turnbuckles looking for an elbow or a splash perhaps. Jumping enzaguri!!! Pope crashes to the mat head first!

The fans are going crazy. As Joe roars and slaps at his knee. Pope is on dream street. The fans energy get both men back into it. Pope looks for a big right hand but Joe turns it into a back slide for 2. Pope rolls Joe up this time, but Joe keeps rolling through and has Pope in an armbar! Pope easily escapes it only for Joe to scoop him up and hit an Island Driver! Joe goes straight for the Coquina Clutch!

It’s locked in and Pope has nowhere to go. Pope taps, Pope taps!

Winner and entrant in the #1 contender’s match: Samoa Joe

Joe’s music plays and he drops the hold and crawls away. He is absolutely spent as Pope looks up at the lights. The fans are giving both men a standing ovation and a “that was awesome” chant. Eventually Pope and Joe shake hands and Pope raises Joe’s hand before rolling out of the ring. Joe cannot stand up on the turnbuckles to thank the fans but claps them back before Kurt Angle’s music hits.

The other #1 contender's entrant Angle walks down and steps into the ring with Joe. They stare at each other for an age before Angle’s eye looks up at the Bound For Glory sign high above the ring. Joe looks at it now and there is a stare down as these two titans, who have faced each other in past wars, will clash one more time next week on Impact. Who will move on to face Desmond Wolfe for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at Bound For Glory?

JAM's Review
I really like that you're putting a lot of emphasis on the X-Division. The war that Aries went through with Low-Ki was definitely a great matchup, it definitely elevated the X-Division Title to new heights in my opinion. And now with Aries feuding with Petey, we're sure in for another great contest. It's like every week, you gives us a new opener which is pretty good but don't you think the main feud should always start out the show? I do like your different openings as each one could easily open the show.

This little interaction with Danielson and AJ was pretty awesome to see. I can just imagine the feud that they can have. Maybe you book this pretty soon? I like that you're using Morgan as the monster that he's supposed to be but I'm not really feeling this feud, so end it soon maybe?

And again, I get that you have to have the Champ be doing something but maybe he could've focused a little more on the match that happened in the main event. But maybe it was a way to keep MVP doing something since he's pretty new around TNA. There's just a lot of things that you could've done to keep the emphasis on the World Title.

The interview with Kurt was good. I like this exclusive interview with Tenay as it gives us an in-depth look on how Kurt Angle is doing. Whoever he faces between Pope and Joe will be a great contest but I'm pulling for Joe though so he can win back the World Title at Bound For Glory. I think his reign was cut a little short to be honest. He should've went into BFG as the champion and maybe lose it at that time. But either way, Bound For Glory should be a good Pay-Per-View.

Overall, another good show. Again, you had some good matches with some alright segments, seems like that's what it has been as of late. I know you've got some surprises for us so I hope that you bust those out pretty soon man!
 
SXEnightmare's Review:

Hey man just checked out your latest show thought id shoot you a quick review hitting some key points.

Aries opening the show I like it its nice to see someone besides the main eventers open the show and Aries vs Petey could be insane really looking forward to that match for BFG.

Kash & Gunner getting another shot at the tag belts? Hopefully they win since another loss to The Guns might just take away from them and they seem to make a good team, Also looks like we might be heading towards RVD vs Kazarian at BFG? That sounds good to me but from what I have seen Kash & Gunner & MCMG are your only real teams in the divison which hurts the divison just what I think.

Just a quick question is Matt Morgan heel or face? He seems heel but getting attacked like he did seems like hes a face.

What a main event man! Pope and Joe put on a frickin show in the main event not surprising that Joe beat him and I expect Joe to move on past Kurt Angle to get his rematch with Wolfe at BFG.

Overall another good show man keep up the good work your BT is still my favorite one to read I must say something about Joe vs Angle doesnt entertain me all that much but maybe you will perk my interest with it. Also really looking forward to Bound For Glory im expecting great things based off how well its being built up and how awesome Victory Road was.
 
Bearded Review

-Final review of the night, lets jump right into the latest edition of TNA Impact. Looking forward to GS and Bound For Glory is closing in on us, really can't wait for that. Best of luck on your way to the big show homie. Enough chat, let's get to this.

-Show starts with Aries, niiiiiiice! Him and Petey Williams at BFG, hot diggity that is gonna be sexy. I've been a big fan of both of these guys (both in real life and here in your BT). You've done a fabulous job building them up and now they can square off in what could be a match of the night candidate. Great promo.

-A fun little six man tag to start of the match portion of the night. The spot with the midair super kick from Storm was sick, I could just picture it. Looks like Roode has unfinished business with Lashley. Interested where all this goes. Speaking of unfinished business, DB has just that with Matt Morgan. Nice little match with AJ furthering the feud with him and the blueprint. I sense DB may be added to the mix somehow.

-Gail Kim and Flash at BFG should be a nice little KO match. The first KO champ looking to get back her gold, look forward to that. Nice match to put Kim over. Would love to see Flash show her up. And now we have MVP/Wolfe. The right man wins in a good match. Wolfe needs all the momentum being champ and all. MVP looks good in defeat, interested where he ends up.

-Pope has a chance to shine. As much as I'd love to see Joe/Angle I'd rather see Pope elevated. I'm torn here, can't really disappoint me on either scenario. And we follow up with a tag match and the hot and rising Kash and Gunner get a title match at BFG. You've done a hell of a job building them up. You managed to make Gunner interesting, didn't think that was at all possible. Well done.

-Excellent main event. Fantastic match, well written and I could just picture everything in my head. A little bummed Pope fell short, but Joe/Angle will draw more than Angle/Pope. Gonna be a hell of a brawl and I look forward to that one. No matter the winner, the main event at BFG is shaping up to be an awesome showdown.

-Overall it was another excellently produced show and I'm on the edge of my seat awaiting BFG. I guess Angle/Joe will have to hold me over until that point. Keep up the fantastic work GS, keep doing wonders.

TNA Impact is back this week as we get a replay of the #1 contenders tournament that began with the Kurt Angle advancing by winning the Gauntlet match. Then all the other matches with Samoa Joe getting his arm raised last week when he toppled the Pope.

Pyro explodes throughout the arena as the commentary team welcome us to another episode closer to this years biggest event of the year, Bound For Glory. And tonight’s main event is of course the clash of the titans Joe vs. Angle. These two being the very best in the business just can’t seem to move away from each other… and it’s Samoa Joe’s music that has the sold out crowd almost blow the roof off the arena! Out stomps the former Champion as he makes his way to the ring.

Joe chants break out all over the place as he is dressed for battle, with his latest t-shirt and his trademark towel around his shoulders. Joe leaps up on each corner as the fans roar for him is deafening. He takes a mic and says that tonight he once again goes to war with the Olympic Gold medallist. Tonight the two of them will put it on the line for our chance at Glory. Joe says that it will be him who gets the victory and will stand face to face with the man who took his belt from him last month, Desmond Wolfe. And then on the biggest damn stage, he will take back what is his. The crowd hang on every word Joe says as he believes them.

But the lights go out, Kurt Angle’s music hits and the crowd explodes yet again. Out of unique elevator entrance appears a man who months ago possibly could not have wrestled again. A man who would rather die than lose, walks down the ramp and steps into the ring.

He snatches a microphone and gets right up in Samoa Joe’s face. The atmosphere is electric as the fans know tonight they will see a classic. Kurt tells Joe that tonight it is his time. He says that Joe is a young man, and he has accomplished many great things, His huge title reign just recently was one of the best. But this could very well be Kurt Angle’s last chance at greatness, and he will stop at nothing to be the one who stands on the biggest stage and once again hold the World Championship above his head. He beat neck surgery, he beat everyone in the Gauntlet match. He even defeated one of the true best in the biz right now in Robert Roode to prove that NOT EVEN Samoa Joe will stand in his way. Kurt Angle is going to make Joe tap out!

The fans are watching this on thwe edge of their seats… will the two men explode right now… suddenly, an intense Joe staring daggers into the eyes of Angle moves his hand. Angle looks down at it. He then looks up both men look like they are about to kill each other… Angle shakes his hand, and the two separate. The fans pop for the handshake but the moment is interrupted by the World Champion himself Desmond Wolfe!

Wolfe wearing his trademark sunglasses and suit, and holding his two most prized possessions, the gorgeous Chelsea and the World title, he can’t help but smile. Wolfe acknowledges that “Mr Mangled” and Mr “Sloppy Joe” will indeed fight tonight and he will have a front row seat. Tonight he will watch as both men will go to war and both men will kill each other to get a shot at the title. Then at BFG he will bury the survivor and cement his legacy by walking in as champ and out as champ. It will be all too easy! He sarcastically wishes both men luck.


*Commercial*​

When we come back we get a video of the wars Joe and Kurt have had over the years with each man getting their arms raised at different times.


Match #1
MVP vs. RVD


MVP gets his huge entrance and a big pop from the fans. He is followed by a gum chewing Rob Van Dam that doesn’t seem too concerned with his opponent. Van Dam doesn’t rile up the crowd and they have actually turned against him due to his now ultra-arrogant nature. The bell rings and Rob immediately goes out to the floor. MVP demands he gets back into the ring and he takes his time before finally stepping through the ropes.

RVD though continues to stall as the ref tells him to lock up. MVP finally pushes the ref out of the way and looks to land some big shots but is hit out of nowhere with a sabot kick to the jaw! RVD hits a rolling thunder and gets 2 and half! He pulls MVP to his feet and hits another kick, MVP is staggered and Rob springboards off the middle rope and hits a thrust kick! 1..2.. MVP kicks out again. Rob hits a spinning leg drop and then a standing moonsault for another 2. MVP fights back and looks whips RVD, but Rob counters and whips him off and lowers his head for the back body drop. But coming off the ropes, MVP blasts his Rob’s temple with the drive-by boot! 1..2.. Rob kicks out.

MVP is now in control and hits the scoop slam and the Ballin’ elbow! 1..2.. RVD kicks out and then hits some lefts and rights, lashes out with some stiff kicks and then a spinning roundhouse kick! 5 STAR Frogsplash! And this one is over! 1.2.3.


Winner: Rob Van Dam

Rob walks half way up the entrance ramp and grabs a microphone. He says that the fact that he isn’t fighting for the World title at BFG is a disgrace. He is the Whole F’n Show and BFG is the biggest F’n Show. Wolfe, Angle or Joe are not in RVD’s league and it makes him sick that anyone can think otherwise.

But out walks Christopher Daniels to a big pop. He meets Rob on the walk way and says that this is TNA and here is where the very best wrestlers of the world come to compete. That’s why Rob is here. Only the very best in the world are allowed inside those TNA ropes. So since this is the biggest ppv of all time, how about the Whole Dam Show takes on the Fallen Angel? The fans love this idea and pop for it. RVD thinks about it for a moment and nods his head in agreement. He says alright, ok, Daniels has his match. On one condition, it’s a chairs match. Steel chairs are legal. Daniels visibly sighs, cracks a smile and says he’ll see him at BFG where he’ll show him what ebing the very best is all about, and that si the gospel according to the Fallen Angel, God’s gift to professional wrestling!... Daniels’ music hits and he walks off as Rob is left on the ramp when BOOM! The camera seems to have gone out. We switch to a wide angle and Rob has kicked the close up camera man! A camera man is unconscious on the steel ramp with his camera sprawled out on the floor. The boos flood in but he doesn’t care as he walks off and we go to commercial.

*Commercial*​

The commentary team talk about what happened earlier in the day as we see Petey Williams being interviewed about the X Division Championship at BFG and what his game plan is going in against Austin Aries. But Williams stops the interview as he has seen someone and chases after them. The camera crew follow him as it is Jerry Lynn walking towards Jeff Jarrett’s office. Petey scoffs at the “old man” and asks him what the hell he is doing backstage. Lynn tells Petey that he was invited by Jeff Jarrett to talk business about BFG. Williams says that it is perfect that he is here. Lynn says he really has to go and tries to walk away from Petey but Williams gets angry and tells him not to turn his back on him.

Lynn tells Petey to get his hands off him, as Williams says he will become X Division Champion on the grandest stage at BFG. Lynn says he is going to need a lot of luck with that because Austin Aries is on top right now. Williams slaps Lynn very hard in the face. Petey says not even the X Division Pioneer disrespects him. Lynn rubbing the side moves to punch Williams when security intervenes between the two. Petey spits in Lynn’s face! The live crowd boo at this video and even start chanting Petey sucks.

Petey then says how about they do this the OLD fashioned way and settle their differences in the ring. Lynn says fine, he’ll teach the young punk a lesson.. Petey laughs and says he’ll see the “Pioneer” out there.


Match #2
Petey Williams vs. Jerry Lynn


The two men get in the ring but Petey grabs a mic and says that he hopes Austin Aries, X Division Champion is watching because he is about to “Destroy” THE x Division Pioneer.. Canadian style! Lynn who is wearing knee pads over his jeans asks for a mic and says that this “old man” is about to put him over his knee. This gets the crowd pumped as the bell sounds and Williams and Lynn lock up. Williams puts Lynn in an arm wringer, but he reverses it into one of his own. But Lynn counters it back. Williams slips out and looks for a head lock, but Lynn uses his strength and hits a back body drop! Williams grabs his lower back and then dives into the corner for cover as Lynn tells the young punk to bring it on! The crowd are chanting “Jerry” as Petey rolls out of the ring to a chorus of boos. Williams possibly the most hated man in the business slowly walks up the steel steps to slow things down.

They lock up again and Lynn looks for a suplex, Petey slips out of it and counters with a monkey flip. But the Pioneer lands on his feet and clotheslines Petey down! The fans cheer the hell out of the move and Petey rolls out of the ring again out of pure frustration! The fabns are right behind the former X Div Champ as he pumps up the fans and then calls for Petey get back in and face him. He taunts the Canadian Destroyer and tells him to kiss his butt. An enraged Petey steps back in only to be hit with a drop toe hold! Lynn quickly grabs his opponent and goes for a powerbomb! But Williams quickly slips out of it and spins quickly around Lynn’s shoulders and hits a tornado DDT!!!! 1..2… Lynn kicks out! The fans boo as Williams is now in control.

Williams stomps the back of Lynn’s knees and then drops an elbow on it. He then quickly moves into a Sharpshooter. Lynn is caught and as the ref asks the question he roars in pain. But from the back walks the X Division Champion Austin Aries… and he isn’t alone. He is flanked by many X Division wrestlers who have come to watch Jerry Lynn take on the Canadian Destroyer. Amazing Red, Jay Lethal, Masato Yoshino, Sonjay Dutt, Douglas Williams. Even the former Champion Low Ki appears behind them, and then AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels walk out!

Lynn grabs the back of his head in pain, but Aries snatches a mic from the commentary desk and tells Jerry to hold on and to fight! The fans chant Jerry, Jerry, Jerry as Petey tells them to shut up and sits down on the deadly submission even more. Aries moves towards the ring and Petey lets go of the hold to tell Aries off. Aries backs away as the a lot of the X Division looks on. Williams stomps on Lynn’s lower back as the Pioneer, tries to get to his feet. Petey locks the Sharpshooter in again as the fans boo, but Areis gets them all to chant Jerry’s name. Aries says fight it Jerry! And the X Pioneer finds the strength and starts pulling himself towards the ropes. He scratches and crawls as Petey shakes his head, shouting no! But Jerry gets there and drapes his arm over the bottom rope, and the fans go crazy!

Petey tells Aries to shut his mouth as Lynn school boys him!!!

No! Petey kicks out. He is enraged now and drops a knee on the back of Lynn’s skull! Petey pulls him up to his feet and perches him up on the top rope. Petey looks for a rana but Jerry punches him in the face fighting him back to the mat. Jerry then looks for a tornado DDT, but Petey counters and lands on his feet. Kicks Lynn in the gut and then goes for the Destroyer. But Lynn blocks it, looks to go for a back body drop but instead hits an Air Raid Crash!

Petey kicks out!!! The fans can’t believe it! Jerry can’t and so to the X Division!

Jerry’s cardio is in question here and he pulls up one of his kneepads and looks to try and finish the match with his cradle piledriver. Petey pushes away and hits an enzaguri! Destroyer coming up, Lynn drops to a knee to block it. Petey bashes the back of the veteran but Lynn sandbags the move and so Petey hammerlocks Lynn and throws him shoulder first into the ring post! Petey then hits his huricanrana! Pety looks over at Aries and points at him. He gives the sign of the belt as the fans boo.

Williams grabs Lynn and sets him for the ride. He points at Aries. Aries doesn’t blink and stares at Petey as the other X Div wrestlers behind him can’t bear to watch. BOOM!!! Sick flip piledriver to Lynn!!! The Candian Destroyer drives Lynn’s head into the mat. 1.2.3

Winner: Petey Williams
Petey gets his hand raised as he looks down at Aries. The X Div Champion gets into the ring, but Petey slowly slithers out. The fans boo Williams as he backs up the ramp. The X Div wrestlers are all giving him intense stares but he stares back and they clear a path for him, until he comes to Styles and Daniels. He smiles at them and barges past them and then looks back at Aries and again gives the sign of the belt.

A Double watches as Petey walks to the back as the ref checks on Lynn and we go to commercial.

*Commercial*​

Backstage Christy Hemme is with Bobby Lashley who is not in a good mood. Lashley says last week Roode hit him with a chair from behind and then ran off. Tonight he is calling him out and wants him in the ring. He’ll see how tough Robert Roode really is.

Match #3
Chris Masters vs. Magnus


These two big powerful guys square off. They shake hands, circle, but then Magnus to try and play mind games with Masters mocks him and does a body building pose. Masters smiles and laughs it off and then shows him his pose. The female fans seem to like this as both guys laugh about it and then get down to business. They lock up and try to power one another into the corner. Masters pushes upwards on his slightly taller opponent and powers him into the corner. He then looks for a chop, but Magnus quickly ducks out of it and calmly walks to the other side of the ring.

The two again lock up with Masters quickly putting on a head lock, Magnus pushes out of it and tries a shoulder block but Masters braces himself and Magnus bounces off him. Masters invites Magnus to try it again. So Magnus does but instead f a shoulder block he smashes Masters with a big boot to the face! Magnus taps his head and brings Chris to his feet and then hits the Juvi Driver! 1..2.. Masters kicks out Magnus slaps the mat and looks to climb the turnbuckle for an elbow drop but he is pushed off the top and crashes and burns on the mat! The ref calls for the bell as the Monster Abyss strikes!

No contest

James Mitchell is directing traffic as Jeff Hardy’s “Another Me” music plays and out slowly walks the Anti-Christ of professional wrestling. Dressed in a long coat purple trenchcoat, and wearing a mask which looks like his Immortal title belt from last year, he makes his way to the ring as Abyss starts beating the hell out of Magnus and Masters. Blackhole Slam! Shock Treatment! Doug Williams Magnus’ British Invasion partner runs out and dives into the ring but he is hit with a big boot, and then a chokeslam!

Hardy walks up the steps and enters the ring. He outstretches his hands as Abyss feeds him all three men, Boom! Boom! Boom! Hardy hits the Twist of Fate on all of them. Mitchell maniacally laughs and Abyss roars as Hardy removes his mask to reveal a painted face. Hardy’s music continues to play as Mitchell hands him a microphone. Security and EMTs start coming out, but Hardy ignores them as he looks directly into the camera.

Hardy: Icon. Hero. Stinger. I’m very happy you have decided to accept my challenge. In fact I’ve got goose bumps, ya see I’ve been waiting a long time for this because you see, when I was a kid, you were MY hero. I idolised you, I thought you could fly. And all I ever wanted to do was to fly like you Stinger. So I gave and I gave and I gave to these people. My body, my sacrifices, my torment. But that was then. And this… well, this is now. People talk about the end of an era. People talk about the time when they watched a legend go round. Well the date is set people. The end of the Icon is coming. At Bound For Glory it will be an end of an era for the both men. It will the end of Sting’s career and the end of Jeff Hardy being known as a daredevil, instead known as THE Devil. Sting you will fall to me, and it wont be simply a 1.2.3. I will wipe you from the face of this Earth, and I will smile as I do it. See you soon.. for the last time…Icon.

Hardy’s music plays again, Mitchell, Abyss and Hardy make their way through the people looking after Masters, Doug and Magnus. Hardy puts his mask back on they walk to the back, not really booed by the fans, as they seem to have been mesmerized by Hardy’s speech.

*Commercial *​

A replay of Immortal’s attack on Masters and Mitchell and the last part of Hardy’s speech where he will end Sting’s career at BFG…

Match #4
KO Champion Alissa Flash, Hamada and Awesome Kong vs. Gail Kim, Tara and ODB


The KO Champion and challenger lead their teams in a 6 women tag match. Gail wants Flash, but Flash jumps down, waving the challenge away. Hamada who lost to Gail last week wants revenge and goes after Gail blindsiding her as Gail walked over to get Flash back in the ring. Hamada unleashes her buzz saw type kicks and then big heavy elbow strikes. She slams Gail to the mat and then drops a knee to her forehead. She drapes a leg across Gail’s throat and tags in Kong, Gail’s old nemesis and she starts pounding on her with heavy blows.

Kong goes for the Implant Buster but Tara and ODB come in and stop the move by hitting Kong. Kong drops Gail and she crawls to the corner and ODB tags in. ODB and Kong go at it with big shots. ODB gets the crowd behind her as she bounces off the ropes and almost takes Kong off her feet. She tries again, but Kong hits a spinning back fist and then a big boot. Kong looks for a cover, but Tara breaks it up. Flash blind tags Kong before she charges Tara and the two spillout to the floor! Flash comes in and springboards off the middle rope and hits a Beautiful Disaster kick to ODB’s face! A hurt Gail can only look on as Flash pins ODB with the one move.

Winners: Alissa Flash, Hamada and Awesome Kong

Kong and Tara fight on the outside and once again have to be split up. Flash grabs her belt and holds it up as Gail grabs her ribs. Flash tells the ref to put her belt around her waist. Gail endures watching this happen as Flash smiles and walks off with her hands raised in victory.

Match #5
Bobby Lashley vs. Robert Roode


Lashley walks out and calls out Roode and tells him to come out. Roode’s music hits as Lashley waits, but from behind Roode comes out of the crowd with a chair and blasts Lashley in the back again! Lashley drops to the mat, and Roode trash talks him before brutally hitting him three more times in the back.

Roode grabs the mic and says, “Play my music” as he puts his boot on Lashley’s temple and raises the chair in the air. James Storm runs out to get at his ex-partner, but Hernandez is right behind him, and before he can get into the ring, Dez runs him down and knocks him down. Sitout powerbomb on the steel ramp!!!! Roode laughs as Dez looks down at Storm, the fans are booing at both men, as Robert Roode says “Now play Hernandez’s music hahaha!” Shawn Hernandez’s music now plays as both men walk off as we go backstage.

Matt Morgan is backstage and he says that last week AJ Styles once again got in his business, when he was about to break Bryan Danielson’s neck. He says the clock is ticking for AJ Styles. The so called face of this company, the Phenomenal One is going to get his head kicked right off his shoulders. Matt Morgan is done messing around. He will show the world at Bound For Glory just how destructive this giant is. AJ Styles will be squashed like a bug and scrapped off his boot and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Another video about Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe’s rivalry is played as we go to ringside again and out come up the Motor City Machine Guns with the Beautiful People.

They do they lude entrance as the World Tag Team Champions each grab a microphone. Shelley says that once again they are going to face off against Gunner and Kid Kash. They say they are getting a bit bored with beating these guys and he knows the fans are too. Gunner and Kash despite their tattoos and their scowls are just not in the Guns’ league and at BFG it’s going to be like Déjà vu.

Shelley then says they should come up with some cool new way to beat them, some new cool double team move and call it the Kash and Gunner, Sabin laughs and says that is a good idea, but surely they can come up with a better name than that. Maybe the Loser Driver. Shelley chimes in, with the Trailer Trash Drop. Sabin adds, how about the Red-neckbreaker. But the Champs are interrupted by their BFG challengers.

Flanked by the giant Isaiah Cash, Kid Kash and Gunner walk out not looking at all impressed. Shelley says that maybe their tattoo artists should have inked a sense of humour on them. Sabin says maybe he should have inked some talent on them! The Champs tell their girlfriends to exit the ring, as they surround the front part of the ring. They jump into the ring but Sabin and Shelley jump out join their girls and back up the ramp, still with mics in hand. “Maybe they should have inked some brains on them!” They keep insulting them as they head to the back. Even though they have left ringside they continue to insult and laugh at Kash and Gunner leaving the challengers seething as we go to commercial

Both men are sprawled on the outside but neither man nor the fans have noticed the referee had begun counting when both men left the ring. He counts them out!

Double count out

Desmond Wolfe laughs at the commentary position. Neither of them has won the match! Desmond walks to the ring and grabs the mic. He stands in the ring looking down at both men who are totally exhausted and holding their backs in pain. Wolfe says he has no competition, he is in a league of his own and… but the TNA Founder’s music hits and to the fans delight out walks Jeff Jarrett. He snatches the microphone off of the World Champ, and says that the fans will have their main event at BFG. This match is restarted right now!

The fans go crazy, but Wolfe blows up and gets in Jarrett’s face. Jarrett tells him to back off, but Wolfe is livid and pushes Double J backwards into the ropes and smashes him with a Lariat in the middle of the ring!!! The Founder is out as the ref tells Wolfe to get out of the ring. Wolfe grabs a hammerlock on Jarrett and drives his shoulder into the ring post!

He then sits him up on the turnbuckle and nails the Tower of London! Jarrett is left laying!

Joe and Angle are oblivious to what is going on as all they know is the match has restarted. Joe rolls into the ring first and when he gets up he is blasted with the Jawbreaker Lariat! Angle sees this but it too late and he is pulled through the ropes with a hangman’s neckbreaker! Angle’s neck bounces off the ropes and he falls out to the floor grasping his neck in pain. The vile World Champion stands tall in the middle of the ring, as security run out again tonight and the beg off the Champion. He straightens his suit jacket, and exits the ring, he grabs his World title off the commentary desk and holds it in the air, as the fans boo him as he leaves the carnage at ringside….
 
SXEnightmare's Review:

Nice opening match between MVP and Van Dam I sense something big coming in the future for Van Dam maybe a big win at BFG over Daniels? Heel RVD is brand new thing so I give you credit for it because your doing great with it.

Petey vs Jerry Lynn WOW! what a match! My only problem with this was I felt Jerry Lynn should have won but then again hes probably not sticking around so it does make some sense to have Petey destory the legend oh and it was just a beautiful touch to have the x divison guys come out to watch the match.

Abyss interfearing in the Masters vs Magnus match was good to see I was bored with the match just not a fan of Masters so I was happy it didnt last long, And im still loving the Hardy vs Sting fued I cant wait to see what you do with them at BFG man.

Nice tag match for the Knockouts and it looks like we may be getting Gail vs Flash as well as Kong vs Tara at BFG which would be great to see as I enjoy womens wrestling.

Roode again lays out Lashley with a chair! Looks like another BFG match coming here I assume it will be a NO DQ match from the way its being built and I see BFG being the time when Lashley beats the hell out of Roode!

This whole segment between The Guns and Kash & Gunner confused me a little bit because im not sure whos the faces and whos the heels it looks like your building up a heels vs heels and I dont know how smart that is the fans need someone to cheer for.

Okay that was just an awesome main event! It was an all out war between Joe and Angle like I already said I do think you went a little overboard with spoiler tags it was a nice touch but maybe 2 or 3 less wouldnt have been bad but not a huge deal. Desmond Wolfe interfears and it looks like were gonna get a triple threat main event which should be awesome to see.

Not much else to say Ill just say your building up BFG in such a great way and im loving all your shows disapointing that your ending this after BFG though I must say.
 
Another great show, GS. So time for my review..

-Great opening promo with Samoa Joe calling out Desmond Wolfe and Kurt Angle coming out to a big reaction. The ususal promo until Angle tells Joe he's going to make him tap then things suddenly get heated. To be honest, I was expecting a full-out brawl but I was very surprised when Samoa Joe offered his hand to Kurt Angle, but then Desmond came out. He seemed very confident and he's got this arrogance about him that really makes him stand out. He'll be at ringside for the match, won't be surprised if he gets involved and it ends up becoming a triple threat at BFG.

-Great opening match between RVD and MVP. I'm liking Van Dam's heel persona at the minute and a win over Daniels at Bound For Glory could really cement him as a top heel in TNA. I'm happy you gave him a clean win cause I'm sick of all the heels getting cheap wins at this day in age.

-I had so much fun reading Williams vs. Jerry Lynn. It was very unpredictable cause it looked like it could have gone both ways. Great writing, GS, very impressed. With the push you've given Petey Williams lately, and rightly so, I expected him to win the match, one Canadian Destroyer and it's over, that finisher is deadly. I can see Petey winning the title at BFG.

-Short match between Chris Masters and Magnus, but I understand since you need the Abyss, Jeff Hardy and James Mitchell stable to keep relevant. They are turning into a big heel group as they just kee[ interfering in matches. I'm liking Hardy's 'Anti-christ' persona, and you're writing his promo's very well.

-Decent knockout's match, GS, I always like a multi-knockout tag aha ;)

-Lashley vs. Roode. Another no contest, but Roode attacking Lashley to the extent where Lashley can't even compete is a huge step-up for Roode. I mean it may have been a cowardly assult but it still gets him over big as a heel.

-And the main event, absolutely awesome. Also, with all the spoilers, I didn't know what was going to happen. A big return? It kept me on the edge of my seat, and it was so fun to read, another classic by Joe and Angle, in the end it's a double countout. I thought Jarrett came out to announce a triple threat, but no, a restart. In the end, Wolfe sticks his nose into the match, attacking Jarrett, Joe and Angle. Wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being a triple threat now at Bound for Glory.

Overall, brilliant show, GS, just like always. Keep up the good work (y)

Last week on Impact… Samoa Joe. Kurt Angle. In a war to determine the number one contender for the World Championship. When both men fought each other to a stand still, the match was called a double count out by the referee. But the Founder Double J restarted the match, only for the Champion of the World Desmond Wolfe to attack him, and then both Joe and Angle…

Pyro! Pyro! Pyro!

The three man commentary team of Mike Tenay, Jeremy Borash and Don West welcome everyone to Impact only two weeks out from the biggest ppv in the history of TNA, Bound For Glory. The grandest stage of them all and as it stands right now, Desmond Wolfe still officially doesn’t have a contender for his title going into the main event.

Out walks Jeff Jarrett to a big pop from the TNA faithful. The Founder acknowledges the crowd and waits for the cheers to die down before addressing the situation. He thanks them for their support and he says that “last week two of the very best fought tooth and nail to become the number one contender for the World title. We needed a clear winner for the main event for the biggest event in wrestling. But when I restarted the match, the Champion assaulted me and assaulted the combatants. Now as the Founder of this company I could very easily strip Desmond Wolfe of his Championship for putting his hands on me last week and jeopardising the biggest night in this company’s history. Also I could right here tonight re-book Joe and Angle in this ring one more time. I could do a lot of things, but..”

A howl shoots over the loud speakers and out to a huge chorus of boos walks the World Champion with once again the title under one arm and the beautiful Chelsea on the other. Chelsea with her short skirt sits on the middle rope to allow Wolfe a clear path into the ring so he can stand face to face with Jarrett. Wolfe holds the title in front of Jarrett’s face and then passes it to Chelsea. He removes his sunglasses and gives them to her to and he holds out his hand, and she places a microphone in it.

“Jarrett, last week you found out why you don’t piss off the Champion of the World. I took you out without blinking last week. Don’t even think about doing it again old man. In two weeks I am going to cement myself into the annals of pro wrestling history by immortalising myself walking into Bound For Glory, destroying my opponent and walking out with the belt around my waist. The thing is Jarrett, BFG is only two weeks away. This Champion needs time to prepare for his opponent. You will give me the name right now or I’m going to break your neck.”

Jarrett says that he was about to before he came out and interrupted him. “Champ after what you did last week it is only fair that you’re opponent be, Kurt Angle!!!!”

The fans go crazy, and Wolfe is not impressed. Angle has fought back from a career ending injury to be once again wrestling for the World title.
“…AND … SAMOA JOE!!!”

The fans go nuts!!! Wolfe can’t believe it. A triple threat match where the champion doesn’t have to be pinned or submitted to lose the title! Wolfe looks as if his head is about to explode off his shoulders he can’t contain his rage and he roars. He lunges at Jarrett with a big right hand, but the Founder is ready for him. He blocks it and gives Desmond back two of his own. Chelsea scrambles into the corner as Jarrett sets up the Stroke, but Wolfe elbows out of it, hits the ropes and BOOM! Lays Jeff out with a Jawbreaker clothesline! Jarrett is lifeless as the fans boo the Champ. He stands over him holding his jaw. Security runs out to protect the Founder of the company as Wolfe walks off. Security clears a path for the Champ as he walks off. Security check on Jarrett, but he comes to and he crawls over and grabs a microphone that is on the mat.

“Hey…hey, Champ… *cough* … tonight you’re in a match…. Against….. ME! *cough* So why don’t you choke on that…” The fans cheer that as Wolfe with title belt in hand ushers Chelsea to the back. He looks over his shoulder with disdain. He points at Jarrett before stomping off.
The commentary team talk about the Champion going one on one with the Founder, who himself is a multi time former Champion. Big tiem match leading into Bound For Glory tonight on Impact.

*Commercial*​

Samoa Joe is interviewed immediately after the break about the news he and Kurt Angle are now the #1 contenders at BFG. Joe says that last week he and Angle took each other beyond their limits and now both of them will step into the ring to finally decide who out of the three men are truly the very best. In two weeks he will take back his title. In two weeks he will run through Kurt Angle. He will run through Desmond Wolfe and he will once again be Champion of the World.

Match #1
Bobby Lashley vs. Robert Roode


A video plays showing Victory Road, where Roode was dominant as he was looking good to win the Gauntlet match and move towards the World title at BFG. But then he hit a speed bump called Kurt Angle. Roode challenged Angle for his #1 contender match spot and came up just short in an amazing effort. The frustrated Roode then lost again in a 6 man tag and so took out his frustrations on the winner of the match Lashley. Lashley called him out the following week, but Roode is as cerebral a competitor as they come and he slipped in through the crowd and took out the powerhouse from Kansas again with a chair shot. Jarrett has booked this match tonight live on Impact!

Roode comes out first and then Lashley to ensure Roode doesn’t try anything tonight. Lashley gets in the ring but Roode slides out and grabs a microphone. Roode tells Lashley that he is impressive physically, but is obviously his intellectual inferior. Roode says tonight he is going to beat Lashley and he isn’t even going to realise it until Robert Roode is back in the locker room. Bobby asks Roode if he is done, because he wants to kick his ass now.

The bell sounds and the two lock up. Roode is thrown from one side of the ring to the other. Roode gets out of the ring and starts stalling. The fans get on him, but he keeps stalling. In and out of the ring until he jaw jacks with the fans and Lashley comes out after him. Roode quickly dropkicks the steel steps into Lashley’s knee! Lashley grabs it and Roode clotheslines Lashley on the floor. He vigoursly stomps the big man’s head and then rolls into the ring and tells the ref to count.

The ref gets to 6 and Lashley rolls in only to be blasted with elbow drops. Roode then brings Lashley to his feet and moves for a Pay Off. But Bobby blocks it and counters with a big suplex! The fans are behind Lashley as he smacks his knee to get back in the game and limps towards Roode. But gets hit with a thumb to the eye, a big knee lift and then a double underhook suplex! 1..2.. KICKOUT WITH AUTHORITY!

Roode slaps the mat and comes after lshley with big right hands but Lashley explodes and hits a spear! 1..2.. Roode gets his foot on the rope! The fans chant “Bobby” , as he hops to his feet with the help of the ropes only to be kicked in the knee by Roode, which drops him and then he hits a DDT! 1..2.. Lashley just kicks out. Roode looks for a crossface submission, but Lashley fights it off with elbows and then with his good leg kicks Roode off of him.
This time Roode is the one that hits the spear! 1..2.. Kickout!

But Crossface applied! Lashley refuses to tap. He reaches out for the rope but Roode grabs the arm and turns the submission into a scissored armbar! Roode starts hyper extending the elbow by sitting down on Lashley’s shoulder. Lashley rolls his body forward somehow and drapes his leg on the bottom rope and the ref makes the break. Roode starts striking at the elbow whips Lashley into the corner and then runs in for a splash only to be hit with a big boot.. Lashley limps to Roode and looks for a guillotine choke! Roode is fading as the fans yell “tap!”. But Roode plants his feet and counters the submission into the Pay Off! 1..2.. kickout!!!
Lashley kicked out!

Roode trying to get his breathe back slides out of the ring and out of frustration, grabs a chair. The ref follows him and pulls it out of his hand, but while the ref is distracted he grabs the ring bell. He slides into the ring with it but is turned inside out by a big clothesline! Dominator!!!!
1.2.3!

Winner: Bobby Lashley

The fans cheer as Lashley has put down Roode after weeks of being attacked from behind with a steel chair. Bobby is ecstatic about his win as he shares his win with the fans high fiving everyone at ringside as we go backstage…

James Storm is with Christy Hemme and he says Lashley just got a good win over his old partner Robert Roode. But tonight is also the good old Cowboy gets his chance at revenge too. Shawn Hernandez, you’re one tough hombre son, but in just a few minutes you are going to be looking at the lights because for you its, Last Call! Sorry about your damn luck. Storm walks off as Christy tells us all, Storm vs. Hernandez is next!

*Commercial*

Match #2
James Storm vs. Shawn Hernandez


Hernandez walks out to a hostile crowd. He berates them on the way to the ring as he jumps into the ring and awaits his opponent. The Cowboy’s music plays and the fans go crazy. He is getting more over every week as he drinks a beer with a fan and then gets into the ring. He is very cautious though as he knows how dangerous Dez is. He keeps his eye on him and the ref rings the bell. Dez looks to attack but Storm is moving looking for his own opening. Storm looks to shoot on Dez’s leg but the big man moves. Dez then looks for a big attack but Storm ducks out of the way. Each man wary of the other.

They lock up, Storm knowing Dez’s power quickly slips behind and looks for a takedown but Dez holds his ground and looks for an elbow. Storm looks for a hammer lock, only to move to a headlock. Dez though tries to push him off, but Storm drops to a knee and secures the hold. Shawn though shows his strength and hits a big back suplex! Storm holds his back as Dez grabs his bandana and throughs it out Storm before picking him up, whipping him into the ropes and hitting a huge shoulder tackle that sends Storm flying across to the other side of the ring!

Gorilla Press slam and 1..2.. Storm kicks out! Dez brings Storm to his feet but gets kicked in the gut, Storm then hits a neckbreaker. The fans are behind him as he gathers his breathe and then hits an atomic drop and then a clothesline, Dez gets up only to be hit with a right hand and then is whipped into the ropes again but Dez grabs the ropes as Storm has loaded up the last call! Dez stops dead and quickly rolls out of the ring avoiding the finisher.

Storm comes out after Dez but he tricks him and slides in and then launches himself over the top rope! But Storm side steps him and Super-Mex crashes and burns on the steel guard rail! Storm rolls him into the ring and covers him for 2. the Cowboy then looks for the eye of the storm but Dez fights out of it. Lifting sit out spine buster!!! 1..2.. Storm kicks out!

Dez brings Storm to his feet by his ears and then slaps the taste out of his mouth before hitting the ropes for a big move. LAST CALL!!! Both men are down. Storm finally crawls over for the cover..1..2…Kickout! Storm seemingly has nothing left as he slaps the mat and lies there trying to think of what he can do. The crowd though try to feed him all their energy chanting his name as Dez uses the ropes to stand up. He is wobbly and tries to shake the cobwebs out from the superkick. Storm is up, and he crashes into Dez in the corner with a big forearm. Storm comes off the ropes, but Dez picks him up and body slams him, then hist a leg drop, 1..2.. Storm kicks out.

Dez slaps the mat out of frustration and looks for a powerbomb. Storm blocks it and back body drops out of it. Dez gets to his feet and eats a big right hand to the top of his head sending in on his back. Storm sends Dez into the ropes and hist a big elbow dropping Deza to the mat again. The fans are pumped up as Storm waits for Dez to get up and he hits the Closing Time (Codebreaker), stunning Dez, Storm then bounces off the ropes and hits the backstabber! 1..2…

Kickout!!! Dez is one tough sonavabitch! Storm can’t believe it and he sets for the Last Call as the fans are behind him. Dez is up … Boom! Dez clotheslines Storm so hard he turns inside out! Blue Thunder Driver on Storm! 1..2… Kickout! The Cowboy kicksout and both men are lying on the mat with nothing left. The ref starts his ten count and both men fight to get to their feet. They are both up and they exchange shots until Storm gets dropped by a big forearm shot. Dez drags him out of corner and looks for the Border Toss. Storm fights it off and escapes out the back door, but Dez kicks him in the stomach and gets him up again and connects with it! 1..2..3!

Winner: Shawn Hernandez

The crowd boo as Dez is announced the winner. His music plays and he mouths off to the fans, even too exhausted to raise his hands in the air as he leaves. Storm gets to his feet and the crowd give him a standing ovation and his music plays and although disappointed he gives Hernandez a stare but the powerhouse smirks back before walking off. Although Shawn got the win, neither man dominated and this maybe far from over.

Backstage Jarrett is getting ready when he is interviewed, he says that tonight he is not the Founder he is the King of the Mountain and he is going to teach the World Champion there is a hierarchy around here. It starts from the top. And Double J is going to play a tune on his head.

Match #3
Kid Kash and Gunner w/ Isaiah Cash vs. MVP and Chris Masters


The challengers for the tag titles are out first and they grab a mic telling the smart ass Machine Guns that they talk too much and but come BFG they wont be talking much, in fact they will be eating out of straws after they are done taking their titles from them! They are about to say more but the big entrance of MVP cuts him off as The Masterpiece and MVP make their way out with big fan fare. They get into the ring and stand off, when the Champions, Shelley and Sabin’s music hits and they walk out and join the commentary team!

Kash and Gunner trash talk the Guns and take their eyes off the “ball”. Dual deep arm drags by Masters and MVP! Dual drop kicks! Gunner and Kash find themselves on the floor as the fans cheer MVP and Masters! They soak up the adulation as Kash and Gunner are extremely livisd. They start kicking things as the giant Isaiah tells them to get back in. The ref gets the teams into their respective corners as Kash and Masters lock up, but the power of the Masterpeice is on show and he picks up Kash over his head and throws him at Gunner!

Gunner flies off the apron to the floor as Kash falls to his knees and eats a boot from Masters! The fans are loving it as the Machine Guns laugh at their rivals from the commentary position. Masters tags in MCVP who hits the Ballin’ elbow! 1..2.. Kash kicks out as MVP sort of knew he would and drags him to his feet looking for the Overdrive. Kash though spins out of it and dives looking for the tag with Gunner, but he is still on the floor. Kash can’t believe it and is hit with a belly to back suplex! 1..2.. Kash kicks out again, as MVP tags in Masters who looks for the MasterLock. Kash is caught but Gunner is back in and spears his own partner to get to Masters! Both men are down.

The commentary team note that Gunner is willing to take out his own partner if it means staying in the match. Win at all costs. Shelley and Sabin had been trash talking and making jokes until that point, but seemed to stop. They too have noticed that Gunner and Kash are willing to do anything to win! The ref tells Gunner to get out of the ring as both Masters and Kash are down. Gunner drags his own partner over to the corner, tags in and then brutally stomps on Masters!

Gunner hits a big suplex and then goes for the cover, but MVP makes the save. Gunner goes for his F-5 but Masters uses his size and power to land on his feet and hit a short arm clothesline.

The fans boo and as the bell rings it gives Isaiah the go ahead to assault MVP on the floor. He throws him into the steel steps and then chokeslams him on the concrete! Both Kash and Gunner start stomping away on Masters. But the Champs fly down and dive into the ring. They clear the ring but Gunner and Kash have big smiles on their faces. They give the sign of the belts and say they got plans for the Guns, it’s not over yet!

Backstage an interviewer knocks on the World Champion’s door. Chelsea opens the door and tells them to go away, the Champ is preparing. She does though say that Jeff Jarrett has put his own World Champion in quite the situation. And that since he is the Founder of TNA, he has the power to make life difficult for Desmond after Desmond embarrasses him tonight. He has already put him in a triple threat match at BFG, will he try to use his position of power to try and take the title from her man. If so their could be legal action involved. She then slams the door.

Match #4
KO Champ Alissa Flash and Awesome Kong vs. Gail Kim and Tara


Before the match can begin, Flash jumps out of the ring and grabs a microphone. She stands up on the commentary table and says that she is the best female wrestler in the world today, and holds the belt up and says that this proves it. Everyone can say what they like about how she won it or how she has kept it, but at the end of the day she is the Champion. And after BFG she will still be the Champion. She tells Gail that she has no chance against her and if she wanted to lie on her back in the middle of the ring at BFG so she doesn’t get hurt she wont mind because the result will be the same. Gail stays calm and tells her to stop talking and get into the ring. Flash says for her to have it her way.

She gets on the ring apron and orders Kong to destroy Gail. Kong tags Flash and brings her in the hard way! Kong then gives her a spinning back fist and she falls right into a Rana from Gail! Kong walks off as Tara hits Flash with the Widow’s Peak as Gail ascends the turnbuckles and crashes down with the moonsault!

The commentary team say that they are getting word backstage. We go back there to see e Kid Kash tells the camera man to follow him. He, Gunner walk through some hall way and end up in the make-up department where Velvet Sky and Angelina Love are talking. They bust into the room and throw the girls over their shoulders! The girls scream and call for help as they run to the parking garage. Kash says that they will wait there for the Guns.

The Guns turn up but they are blindsided by big Isaiah! He knocks them both down and Gunner and Kid brutally attack them with big rights and lefts! The girls try to get involved but they are pushed away by these three thugs. Shelley chokeslammed on to the bonnet of a nearby car, while Sabin stands on a car and leaps off but is caught in mid air by Isaiah who slams him on another bonnet. Kash gets up on the roof of the car and jumps down driving in elbow into his chest!
The girls check on their men as the Kash and Gunner yell “see you at BFG pretty boys”. They walk off laughing as we go to commercial.

Kurt Angle is interviewed backstage about being named one of the #1 contenders. Angle says that he has worked hard to get back to the top and it doesn’t get any bigger than the Main event at Bound For Glory. He says he has been in the ring with both men and Joe and Wolfe are the best of the best, and a triple threat situation is so unpredictable that any man could win. Kurt says he is a proud man and anything else other than winning the World title will be a failure for him. His body isn’t what it used to be and he almost lost the ability to walk, this maybe his last chance at being the very best and he simply will want it more than the other two guys. “Joe, Wolfe, look out if you thought you knew Kurt Angle, you have no idea what is coming for you at BFG”

This match turns into an all in brawl and each man seems to pair off. Aries and Williams, Styles and Morgan, RVD and Daniels Low Ki and Joe and Magnus and Kurt. The ref can’t get control and rings the bell. A sea of security come out to try and get control as we go to commercial.

Main Event
Non-Title Match
World Champion Desmond Wolfe vs. Jeff Jarrett


Jarrett comes to the ring with his trusty guitar while the Champ has the beautiful Chelsea under his arm. The King of the Mountain is ready to go and Wolfe seems to be licking his lips in anticipation for beating the hell out of the Founder of the company he is the Champion of. The bell rings and the two men lock up!

Wolfe works over his arm and drove him to the mat. Jarrett reversed it and they went through a series of counters before standing up. The fans applaud as Jarrett is able to go hold for hold with the champ.

Jarrett uses a waistlock to take Wolfe down to the mat and then mocked him, making him angry. He charges is slammed into the buckles! Jarrett hits a shoulder block into the lower back of Wolfe and then drags him out of the corner with a belly to back, but Wolfe reverses it in mid air and ends up splashing down on Jarrett! Both men get to their feet and Wolfe lands a heavy Euro uppercut! Jarrett staggers and walks into a big boot! Wolfe then garbs the arm, puts it between his legs and drops down! Jarrett screams in pain.

Wolfe attacks the arm again, slamming it into the mat then stomping on it. He then starts to hyper extend it, but Jarrett kicks Wolfe off and rolls outside to escape the Champ, but Wolfe comes out after him and with a smirk drops a double sledge off the apron into the back of Jarrett’s neck!

Wolfe rolls Jarrett back in but leaves his head exposed and drops the point of his elbow into the Founder’s forehead. Wolfe then throws Jarrett into the turnbuckles and then drives a leaping knee into Jarrett’s spine! Jarrett falls in a heap and his chin sits on the rope only for Wolfe to kick the rope slingshotting it into the throat of Jarrett! Jarrett grabs his throat as the commentary team talk about how Wolfe sues the ring as a tag team partner. Jarrett may have bitten more than he can chew against the World’s Champion as Wolfe snaps an arm wringer on Jarrett making him go face first into the mat! Wolfe starts torturing Jarrett with stretches. Chelsea applauds as the fans boo him, but Jarrett is in serious trouble.

Wolfe declares it’s time to finish and he grabs a cobra clutch, but Jarrett refuses to submit and using the fans’ energy gets to a standing position. He tries to fight it off, but Wolfe is able to turn it into a short-arm clothesline! 1..2… Jarrett kicks out!

Cross chop to Jarrett’s throat and then whips him into the corner. Wolfe runs to the other corner runs up the turnbuckle and turns with blistering speed into a boot from Jarrett! Jarrett fires back with right hands and then whips Wolfe and both men collide with a double clothesline! Both men are down, when suddenly, Jeff Hardy’s music hits!

Out walks the Anti-Christ of Professional wrestling flanked by Abyss and Mitchell. Chelsea screams at Wolfe, and she quickly grabs the World title. Wolfe crawls out of the ring as quick as he can and he lifts Chelsea over the guardrail and he escapes as Abyss picks up Jarrett and hits the Blackhole slam!

Winner: Jeff Jarrett via DQ.

Hardy is wearing his mask again and as Abyss beats the living hell out of the TNA Founder he unmasks to reveal his evil make-up. Mitchell laughs as Jarrett is a bloody mess and is thrown to Hardy who hits the Twist of Fate! Fans chant “We want Sting”.

Hardly sacrilegiously does the Jesus-Christ pose, giving him nuclear heat as he ascends to the top turnbuckle looking for the Swanton Bomb…. When Sting’s music hits! The fans blow the roof off as out of the rafters the Icon descends! Hardy has to get down as Sting drops into the ring and with his baseball bat dispenses of Abyss! He detaches himself from the rigging but hardy is on him!

Hardy ties to beat him down while Mitchell jumps on him and tries to grab his feet. Sting fights out of it and hits Hardy with lefts and rights which bring the fans alive once more! The fans are going crazy as Sting explodes and clotheslines Hardy over the top rope to the floor!

Hardy gets up but all he can do is watch as Sting, spurred on by the crowd sets up James Mitchell and drops him on the back of his head with the Scorpion Deathdrop!

Sting’s music plays as Hardy is livid Sting grabs the bat and points to him as the fans blow the roof off again to end the show!
