VIDEO: Jeff Jarrett’s history surrounding the final member of King of the Mountain.
Tenay: Well TNA wrestling fans, what a treat we have for you, iMPACT! starts off with a bang, the NWA World Champion Kurt Angle is in the middle of the 6 sided ring! What’s he got to say?
Angle: Okay, enough freakin’ jokes! This has gone on long enough. A couple weeks ago, Jeff Jarrett came out and announced TNA will be featuring a King of the Mountain match at Slammiversary. Of course, it meant one thing for me…defending my world title. So Jeff Jarrett comes out and throws some names at me saying who’s going to be in the match itself. I hear names such as “The Instant Classic” Christian Cage! “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles! And the man I will be facing tonight for my belt…”The Samoan Submission Machine”…Samoa Joe. Jeff Jarrett also threw another famous Double J curve ball at me by saying there will be a mystery opponent. He thinks he’s funny playing his mind games all month long. Blabbing rumors, sitting on ladders, and continuously yapping his gums. You aren’t getting in my head Jeff, it just won’t work!
Jeff Jarrett’s music hits as Double J comes to the ring.
Jarrett: Kurt, let me…
Angle: Shut up! I am not done yet! But seeing is to how you are already out here, face to face with the wrestling machine, how about you tell me who the final member in King of the Mountain is this Sunday?
Jarrett: Kurt, let me just say one thing. You are one of the greatest technical wrestlers on the earth today, and to see you go toe to toe with Samoa Joe one more time will be amazing, I will for sure be watching that.
Angle: Oh yea, and I bet your competitor will be watching as well!
Jarrett: That’s just it, why spoil your time in the sun with Joe with my revealing of the competitor? I am going to let you and Joe have your little match, then I will reveal him, because I know I am getting in your head Kurt, if I wasn’t you wouldn’t be so worked up about it! So Kurt I will leave you be, because, coming from the King of the Mountain, there’s nothing more important than a title defense.
Tenay: Jarrett sending a straight message to Angle! But still we don’t know who the competitor is!
BACKSTAGE:
Cornette and Lance Hoyt are walking down the hallways of the iMPACT! Zone’s backstage area.
Cornette: Now Lance I’ll meet you outside, I have to go to my office real fast to get something.
Hoyt: No prob Jim, I’ll be waiting in the parking lot.
Hoyt walks off. Cornette walks into his office and closes the door. He gets scared as Monty Brown is in his office and grabs him by the throat and holds him against the wall.
Brown: So Jimbo, look who found his way back onto iMPACT! It is really quite nice what you did to the ol’ place. I never really got to give you my opinion on our little match we have this Sunday as Slammiversary. You think Frankenstein Lance Hoyt will defeat me at Slammiversary after blind siding the Alpha Male at Sacrifice, no uh, ain’t going to go down like that Jim. You see when you encage an animal for a long period of time, it comes a time when you have to let it roam, and after being caged for that long time, he is angry, and when he is angry, “the shit hits the fan.” So Cornette, no need to call the security, because I am on my way out, just dropped by to deliver a message to good ol’ Jim.
He puts him down and fixes his tie, then walks out the door.

The ref is focused on BG and Hernandez, and Konnan gets on the apron screaming at the ref to count, but the ref sees him and tries to get him off the apron now. Truth uncovers and goes to the ref who is arguing with Konnan, and from behind Homicide low blows him and nails him with the Gringo Killer. He covers him 1..2..3!
WINNER: Homicide
Tenay: What was that!?!?!? What a cheap victory! There was so much interference in that match, how could that have even panned out!?

Sting is seen in the interviewing area with DDP and Scott Steiner behind him. JB attempts an interview.
JB: Well, Jeremy Borash standing here with Team WCW, with whom of which Team Captain Sting will be competing in a WCW vs. ECW Lumberjack Match this Sunday. Stinger, Shane Douglas proposed this concept to Jim Cornette without your or anyone else’s consent, any thoughts on how things were gone about?
Sting: Yea, Jeremy, there is so much running through my head right now it isn’t even funny. Team ECW pulled one over on us this time. Some say the playing field has evened out, but not by much. You see Raven and Rhino have had some behind the scenes arguments that TNA doesn’t want the fans to know about. I am stating this because, wrestling isn’t about politics, it’s about the good ol’ W’s and L’s. That’s what the Stinger is going to get this Sunday at Slammiversary. The big “W”. With my buddies Scottie Steiner and Dallas Paige behind me, we can take on any guys anywhere in this business today.
JB: Well Sting, before you are off to Slammiversary, any closing arguments you have going into the Lumberjack match?
Sting: Yea I got one, this Sunday at Slammiversary, this is the end Shane, the end of this little quarrel us 6 guys have gotten into. Captain vs. Captain, winner takes all, loser goes off with nothing, Shane Douglas…”The Franchise”…this Sunday…Slammiversary…it’s SHOWTIME!
VIDEO: Highlights of the feud between Team 3D and AMW, highlights from LockDown and Sacrifice.

Nash: Yea, I guess accidents happen, but the funniest thing is Senshi, you never know when another one will happen…see you at Slammiversary Warrior.

AJ: Hey, Christian, listen, you and me are going to dominate whoever is in the match. You and me man have everything, looks, strength, charisma…
Cage: Well I am captain Charisma, you know what AJ, you are right, I should stop worrying, now let’s just see these assholes beat the hell out of each other.

Jarrett: Well, Kurt, the time has finally arrived my friend. I am sorry for the circumstances though. Considering you won’t be the first person to hear it, considering all of these rabid TNA fans hot here tonight in the iMPACT! Zone. I know you’re tired Kurt from that wicked match you just had with Joe. Congrats to both of you. However your time is now up, it’s my floor now boys. I know Cage and AJ are in the back watching this, they should be ashamed if they weren’t. Now let’s take a little walk down memory lane shall we. I said this man was making his long awaited return back into a TNA 6 Sided Ring. He was also a main stay in TNA for years. My final clue was last week, with the huge ladder I was sitting atop of at the top of the iMPACT! Zone. Now Kurt, do you have any guesses to whom I am about to unleash back into TNA?
Angle: Listen you slime, bring the freakin’ guy out before I break your damn ankle!!!
Jarrett: Calm down Kurt…geez. Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, AJ Styles, Christian Cage, Samoa Joe, and you too Kurt please turn your attention to the ramp behind Mr. Angle, because I give you the final man in the King of the Mountain match this Sunday at Slammiversary!

Tenay: Jarrett! Jarrett! Jarrett! Jeff Jarrett just smacked Angle over the head!
Jarrett: Looks to me like I did get in your head Kurt, looks to me like I got into everyone’s head! Put the damn pieces together! I haven’t been seen wrestling in a TNA ring for months! I was the biggest mainstay staple in TNA’s side since it’s inception! The clue that threw everyone off was the ladder, well it’s not that hard, pretty simple, I won 2 damn King of the Mountain matches by climbing a damn ladder. It’s me Kurt, the King of the Mountain, Jeff Jarrett! This Sunday, the King of the Mountain returns, in King of the Mountain!
