TNA Impact Results
Last Night’s TNA Impact was a night of "Announcements". It took place at the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas Nevada in HD.
- The first match of the evening was Christy Hemme Vs. Velvet Sky. Christy Hemme defeated Sky with the splits kick.
Backstage showed Kurt Angle and said he had an announcement bigger than Foley’s. He introduced the "Main Event Mafia" as Kevin Nash, Booker T, Sting and himself, saying that tonight they would no longer as for respect (there’s that damn word again) They would DEMAND it.
Commercial
Mick Foley pulls up in a VW Bug as Lauren waits for him outside. Mick Foley says he’s got a big announcement that will be made later.
Booker T and his Biatch, Sharmell went to the ring and he announced his new self promoted "TNA Legends Championship Title" and pulls out a nifty new Red Belt. Christian Cage comes out and calls Booker T a bad Lil’ John Impersonator and questions the title because Booker just invented it. Booker invited him to join the Main Event Mafia and Christian says no, but he challenged him to the "Legends" title match at the Turning Point PPV. Booker accepted and said if Christian lost then he would have to join the Main Even Mafia. (this main even mafia looks to be another NWO to me).
Lauren Interviews Abyss and Matt Morgan. Morgan tells abyss that he can’t wrestle tonight because of burns to his face and Abyss says after they win tonight they’ll go after Angle. Morgan says he has it handled. (Is it me or is Abyss’ character starting to look more like mankind by the second?) Abyss says he has to do something about angle.
JB Interviews Jeff Jarrett and JJ said after Mick makes his announcement that Angle will get over it and stop trying to get him back in the ring.
- Sheik Abdul Bashir defeats Jay Lethal by way of WMD to retain the X-Division Championship.
AJ Styles and Samoa Joe cut a promo saying something about Joe taking Nash’s career and anyone that tried to help him.
Rhino provokes Bashir backstage. Bashir accepts his open challenge and when Rhino turns his back, Bashir kicks him in the groin and attacks him with a microphone and runs off.
- Beer Money defeats Team 3D in a gauntlet style match. Other participants in the event where LAX, Morgan & Abyss. In the end is was Team 3D and Beer Money. Beer money win with a beer spit in face and a pin.
Angle comes out to the ring to make his announcement about the Main even Mafia and calls out Jarrett. Jarrett comes to the ring and talks about the TNA Roster. Angle challenged Jarrett and Jarrett says there are plenty of wrestlers in the locker room that would love a piece of Angle. Abyss attacks Angle from behind and Angle fights back but gets blind-sided by a Black Hole Slam.
Promos are shown for Awesome Kong’s match against Taylor wiled where taylor says that Kong would have to end her career to take her title.
- Awesome Kong defeats Taylor Wilde and takes the TNA Knockout title by way of awesome bomb and the pin.
- Sting and Kevin Nash defeat Samoa Joe and AJ Styles when Nash Hits Joe with the belt. After the match Joe tries to choke out Nash but Booker T and Angle comes out and beat on Styles and Samoa Joe leaving the bloodied in the ring.
Foley comes out to make his grand announcement declaring that it was "Major Declaration Time" and that Jarrett offered him a great investment. Angle’s music hits and he comes out with the "Mafia". Apparently Angle didn’t like Foley’s "Take a Kurt and wipe my Angle." reference and approaches Foley alone about it. Angle headbutts Foley and asks him if he still thinks it’s funny.
Foley get’s up smiling and says that it’s funny now because he just Headbutted his new boss because Foley bought in to TNA to become a major stockholder. He acted as if he was going to say "You’re Fired!", but instead said "You’re free" to continue to work for TNA if he wanted to. Foley goes on to say that he believes in his investment and that Kurt and him had been through a history in the WWE and that they could make history in TNA. He ask Kurt If he wants to be a part of history or BE history.
That ended the show. Not too bad even though it was more announcement than matches. Much better than this weeks Raw or ECW, for sure.

I can’t believe I’m saying this but yeah Impact was better than Raw, it wasn’t that good, but raw was really really bad. I agree the “main event mafia” does seem a bit like the nWo (some of the same guys too), but its also almost exactly the same as the “millionaires club” story line that Vince Russo did in WCW, which was horrible and pretty much the end of WCW. Not a Russo fan at all.

I’m not a big TNA fan, buit this was much more entertaining than raw was this week. I like the dramatization, but I wish there was more action…and ECW this week was absolutely horrible. Vince Russo did well with WCW for awhile but there was only so much nWo you could stand…and then there was The Wolf Pack…and it pretty much went down hill from there. The WCW went from killer rating over Raw to crap in less than a year.
