Double Contract Signing - Nic Nemeth vs. Joe Hendry/Jordynne Grace vs. Masha Slamovich

Santino Marella is in the ring with the Contract Signing Table set up. The contenders come out first, followed by the champions. All four competitors sit at the table.

Santino opens the floor to anyone who wants to say something. Masha Slamovich grabs a microphone. She says that this is a full circle moment for her - three years ago, she signed her first TNA contract in Nashville. Tonight, she’s going to sign the contract that makes her the next TNA Knockouts World Champion.

Jordynne Grace says that she’s proud of Masha, but they both know how this is going to play out. Nothing has changed over the years. She’s sorry that she’s going to have to beat Masha again in order for her to understand that.

Joe Hendry says that a lot of people think he’s an overnight sensation, but it’s actually a journey that has been going for over a decade. He saw Nic Nemeth as a champion before - a time when Hendry played a lawyer on TV. Back then, no one knew his name. But now - not only do they know his name, they say it and they believe in Joe Hendry. At Bound for Glory, there will be a new face and World Champion of TNA with everyone chanting “We Believe.”

Nic Nemeth respects Joe Hendry, but he needs Hendry to focus on just him (Nemeth). He wants Hendry to ignore all the outside voices so that he can focus on facing the best. Nemeth doesn’t plan on losing.

Santino is happy and surprised that this was a respectful, smooth contract signing. Cue Frankie Kazarian…

“The real star of the show is here.” How did he become the Special Guest Referee at Bound for Glory? Well, first - he completed a referee course at the Earl Hebner Academy. Then, he got his referee license and went over Santino’s head to Anthem. He has tenure and can do what he wants. He says that Anthem agreed that the only person capable of being the referee at Bound for Glory is Kazarian. He says that the two “broads” should be thankful that he’s not stealing their thunder, too.

That makes everyone in the ring stand up. Kazarian calls Santino a “stooge” and makes him hold his sunglasses. He says that Santino’s toy badge doesn’t mean anything at Bound for Glory. Kazarian tells Nemeth and Hendry that he’ll be calling everything down the middle because he’s an honest man. He says that the “right man” will walk out of Bound for Glory as the TNA World Champion.

Hendry and Nemeth both grab Kazarian and drive his head down on the table. Grace holds Kazarian and Hendry tells Santino to hit him. Santino walks over to Kazarian. Kazarian spits in Santino’s face. Santino takes out The Cobra and strikes Kazarian with it. Nemeth suggests that he, Hendry, Slamovich, and Grace should all lift Kazarian up and slam him through the table. They all agree and do it.

The champions grab their titles and stare down their contenders as the episode fades to black.
