TNA Impact

Good evening and we start TNA with a tag match with Bully Ray and Willow facing Bobby Roode and EC3 with Bully Ray and Willow get the initial fast paced start with Willow and Bully Ray exchaning signature tag team maneuvers but Roode and EC3 switch momentum and the team of Roode and EC3 try to end the match by double suplexing Ray through a table which Willow moves out of the way. Now its Willow taking control of the match over EC3 and sets EC3 on a table but a wheel chaired bound Spud came out to provide some distraction, which Willow dropkicks Rockstar Spud and carries him out to God knows where and the team of Roode and EC3 take advantage but somehow Bully Ray is able to reverse his fortunes but not for long as Roode does a spinebuster to Bully Ray through the table after reversing what was a powerbomb by by Bully Ray. Very high paced match.

Winner: Bobby Roode and EC3

After the match, Roode does his finisher to Bully Ray through the table to make more of a statement but is signaling for 1 more table and probably 1 more Roode Bomb. EC3 holds Ray and Roode punches Bully Ray as he lays helpless on the table and does a splash off the top rope to send Bully Ray through a total of 3 tables.

Kenny King was the under the impression he has a match and was looking for MVP and gives him some cash as he is in pursuit of MVP

(break)

Back from break and it shows Magnus saying him and Abyss have never been more on the same page. Now to MVP discussing his plans for the evening until Kenny King interrupts until MVP tells him another time.

Enter Mr. Anderson who will take on Sam Shaw in a straight-jacket match. Shaw tells the people to cut his music and insists that he is not “a creepy bastard”. He also says the worst crime is to be “ordinary”. Bell rings and we're off with Mr. Anderson jumping the gun and already trying to put his opponent in the white coat. But Shaw comes back with some hits of his own and Anderson reverses Shaw into the steel steps. Shaw has control before we go to break.

(break)

Back to the match and Shaw is still in control and tries to put the straight-jacket onto Mr. Anderson and Shaw thought he had the match won but Anderson gets up and starts some hits of his own and with the the jacket and now Anderson is trying to get the jacket on but before Anderson could finish the job, Shaw low-blows Anderson and Shaw gets his choke on Anderson and looks to finish the match and Anderson recovers but not for long as Shaw reapplies the choke and now is starting to get the belts on but Mr. Anderson resists but Shaw is able to get the job done and wins the match.

Winner- Sam Shaw

Again, Shaw takes control of this rivalry.

A Beautiful People segment on how they will beat Madison Rayne and whoever she chooses for her tag partner

(break)

Segment from earlier today with EY telling the camera it's about responsibility and b/c he has been around 10 years, he deserves to be in this spot.

Out now is Tigre Uno and now Sanada for the X Division belt. Now comes Kenny King to interrupt the best of 3 series between Sanada and Tigre. He goes on to tell that he is the X Division. And now MVP interrupts KK's segment. Kenny King says to MVP that just because he wins one match that it's his show? Kenny said despite all the stars in the ring, he is the only star in the ring. Kenny King challenges MVP to a match and despite some refusal, MVP accepts King's challenge.

(break)

Bell rings and Tigre gets some early control with a cartwheel when Sanada comes off the ropes and Sanada goes the outside and it looked like Tigre was going to fly but decided not to. Sanada gains control with a move off the top rope and will be challenging following this high paced matchup. Tigre gets a cradle but Sanada gets out. Sanada goes to the rope but gets a spinwheel kick for his troubles. Sanada looked to go the top again but falls in the wrong position when Tigre trips a split legged moonsault. Double underhook suplex to win the first match.

Winner; Sanada

The following best of 3 to be continued at another time...

(break)

Backstage, Madison Rayne is with Brittany and said how she looks up to Rayne and also asks if she could be her tag partner. But she said she doesn't want to put herself in that situation but convinces her otherwise. Madison was quick to point out how Brit dressed the same as her....seems like we are going with a Trish and Mickey James theme here.

Out comes Magnus and tells Abyss to come out and is dressed in business attire. Magnus tells him that he dresses like a winner because he is associated with a winner unlike those other “mouth-breathers”. Magnus is mustering up some courage and says he going to say something that hasn't been said to Abyss' whole life and says and “he loves him” and gives him what ended up being a one way hug. Out of nowhere, Eric Young blindsides Abyss but not for long as Magnus helps his associate and Samoa Joe comes out to even the odds very quickly and as Magnus and Abyss leave, EY exchanges some words with Samoa Joe. Up next, the Beautiful People and Madison Rayne and Brittany.

(break)  

Wolves backstage with MVP and discuss both of their respective matches and one half of the Bromans comes in and tells they can't wrestle with a pulled quad and the Wolves are P.O.'d but now we go to the ring with The Beautiful People coming out to a new entrance. Now comes Brittany and Madison Rayne for this Knockouts tag match. Angelina Love and Brittany start the match up and Brittany gains initial control with a couple armdrags and a couple bodyslams and Velvet Sky enter the match and as Velvet got away with Brittany in the corner, Angelina Love drags Brittany down with a handful of hair. Now Angelina Love enters the match and continues the assault on Brittany with a snapmare into a dropkick into the back. Shoulders to the mid section and Velvet Sky gets a 2 count cover on Brittany. Brittany is able to get some leeway but Angelina Love gets tagged first and Madison Rayne is able to get some moves but Brittany is tagged in and BP do their tag finisher, “The Makeover” and get the 1-2-3.

Winners: The Beautiful People.

(break)

Now to our “exhibition match” between Kenny King and MVP. Match starts with the veteran MVP tying up the arm of Kenny King but reverses it and gives himself some self adulation. Kenny King with a Japanese Armdrag and KK is thrown into the ropes and a drop toehold by MVP. Lockup now with a side headlock takedown by Kenny King and more showboating by Kenny King. Headlock by MVP that turns into a leg headlock by Kenny King . KK is in the corner and as MVP lets go, King gets a cheap headbutt to the Director of Operations. Now the match heats up with a back elbow by King and MVP responds with a punch to face and both men go at each other. The refs separate then and King gets in a last shot before going down the ramp

Winner: No Decision

Backstage with Magnus and EC3 and Magnus goes to EC3 and tries to butter him up with more backup but EC3 just responds to him with “Good luck”.

Camera with Kenny King but not that long as MVP jumps Kenny King and The Wolves try to relax MVP.

(break)

Now our main event for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. Bell rings and as predicted EY and Abyss go after one another while Samoa Joe and Magnus go after each other. Big time dive by Eric Young to the outside to the rest of the combatants and EY moves out the way from a charging Abyss and hits Magnus. EY and Samoa Joe are jaw-jacking each other and Abyss and Magnus blindside the two.

(break)

Back and we see Magnus and Abyss double teaming Eric Young. Magnus instructs Abyss to go to the outside to fight the Samoa Joe. SJ fights back but Abyss gets a knee to the midsection and EY gets dissected by the duo of Abyss and Magnus. EY is on the top rope but Magnus instructs Abyss to not go after Eric Young and Eric Young takes advantage of the slight non -communication and double dropkicks the two. Samoa Joe comes in and rocks and Abyss and goes for the Cocquina Clutch but Magnus escapes. Soon afterwords, Abyss apparently had the match won but Magnus told him not to take the pin on EY. Despite some initial hesitation, Abyss obeyed and Magnus finished off the match and retained his world title.

Winner: Magnus
