TNA iMpact
Orlando, Florida
January Week 4
Note:Blue Commentary=Mike Tenay Red Commentary= Don West
*The show fades into the arena, with no pyro. We go right to the ring to begin the show this time and Robery Roode Inc is in the ring (Roode, JTG and Shad)*
Robert Roode Promo/Christian Answer:
*Roode is in the ring in a suit, Cryme Tyme is behind him now, dressed up in high class gray suits, but not without their trademark hats on their head, accompanied by a slight tilt. They stand directly behind Roode and Roode begins to talk, to a chorus of boos.*
Roode: Ladies and scumbags, welcome, to the debut of the new Roode Inc! Its a new era, as together, me, JTG and Shad, will rise to the top of TNA all while making that money, mo--
*Hes cut off byJTG who grabs the mic*
JTG: Im sorry Robbie dog, but it goes... A little something... Like this!
Shad and JTG: That money, money, yeah yeah, that money, money yeah yeah, that money, money yeah yeah!
*The crowd boos and JTG hands the mic over to Robert Roode.*
Roode: Anyways, well be making that money, and rising to the top, the only way we know how. And thats by taking out everything in out way. But listen, 2 weeks ago, I extended an offer to the X Division, to join Roode Inc... ALL OF THEM! But Jay Lethal decided itd be a good idea to decline on behalf of them. And then, of all people, who interupts me in the ring? Jay Lethal! So Jay, because of your arrogance, and your bad decision making, Ive gone to Jim Cornette, and I talked to him, and I got him to make it Robert Roode, vs Jay Lethal at Against All Odds... Oh, and its a no DQ Match!
* The crowd begins chanting "You suck, You suck" Followed by a "We want Lethal, We want Lethal" chant.*
Roode: Shut up! All of you...
*JTG and Shad start yelling at some fans in the front row, and go over to the ropes to threaten them!*
Roode: I have one more piece of business to get to. Last week, I extended an offer to Christian to join Roode Inc. And tonight, I get his answer, now get out here Christian!
*The crowd erupts as Christians music hits and he comes walkig to the ring in jeans and a t shirt. He gets in the ring and pulls a mic out of his pocket....*
Roode: Now, last week, I gave you a warning, saying that if you dont join me in Roode Inc, youll have a whole lot of pain coming your way. And i proved that by sicking Cryme Tyme on you! Now whats it gonna be?
*Christian smirks and then begins to talk*
Christian: You want an answer? Well let me tell you something. You think you can have your cronies beat me down last week, and then have me join your pathetic little stable? I dont think so. You want an answer? You got it, there no way Im joining Roode Inc.
*Christian turns around and begins to stick one leg through the topes, but suddenly Cryme Tyme attack him with a clubbing blow from behind. Christian falls to the floor and Cryme Tyme begin stomping all over him, as Roode watches on. Finally Roode pushes them off and orders them to the back. They go and Roode picks up Christian, and Christian, from his knees throws a punch to the ribs of Roode! Christian gets back up as the crowd goes nuts. Christian throws a right, and gets one back from roode. They continue to thro rights, with hate in their eyes and suddenly about 8 security guys come out from the back. They slide into the ring and get between them, breaking it up. Christian continues yelling at Roode across the ring as the screen fades back to ringside.*
We're back here live folks, from the Impact zone in Orlando Florida. Im Mike Tenay with Don west, and we're live in Orlando for what should be a great impact.
Well Mike, there was no pyro tonight, but there sure was some fireworks in that ring just now!
There sure was Don. And in case you missed it, moments ago, Robert Roode announced that in 2 weeks at Against All Odds, he will go one on one with Black Machismo Jay Lethal in a no DQ match! That stems from the feud those two are developing, starting when Lethal turned down Roodes offer to have the whole X Division join Roode Inc. Lethal also managed to shut up Roode last week, again alling him pathetic, and it seems liek the crowd agreed with him.
But Mike, I think Christian may want a piece of Roode to Mike.
Thats right because they came to heads last week, when Roode wanted Christian to join Roode Inc, and then had Cryme Tyme attack Christian. This week Christian declined and it resulted in a full out brawl!
Backstage: Cornettes Office
*Backstage Christian is holding his head, and pounding on Cornettes door. Finally it opens and Christian staggers in, taking a seat in a chair inside.*
Christian: Listen Cornette. I want Roode. Theres no way Im gonna let him do that to me, have his cronies attack me two weeks in a row. I want him at Against All odds in two weeks!
Cornette: Christian, I understand but Mr.Roode is already booked to go one on one with Jay Lethal at the PPV and settle that score.
*Christian looks frustrated and shakes his head*
Christian: Make it a three wayl. Something. All I know is I want Roode in a match, and No DQ sounds pretty good. And I wouldnt mind getting my hands on Jay Lethal either.
*Cornette looks down for a minute, thinking, and then looks up*
Cornette: Thats what you want? Fine, you got it. In two weeks at Against All Odds, itll be Robert Roode vs Christian vs Jay Lethal in a No DQ Match, now get out of my office...
* Cornette points to the door and the camera fades out...*
Wow what an announcement!
What a match that will be! And also, as announced this past week on tnawrestling.com the main event will be Kaz vs Kurt Angle, but theres a little twist.
Thats right Don, but Kurt Angle may have written this on himself here. Yes, he wants Kaz's TNA Heavyweight Title, but because he stole Kaz's X Division belt, and because he hit Jim Cornette, his title shot will only be for the X Division Title!
That should be a great match. And we also have Roode/Lethal/Christian in that NO DQ match, and also, it'll be TNA World Tag Team Champions defending their titles against the very sadistic team or Rellik and Black Reign! But now folks, last week these two had a great match with Team 3D picking up the win, and they'll have a rematch here tonight. Team 3D takes on the Rock N Rave Infection!
Match 1:Rock N Rave Infection(Lance Hoyt and Jimmy Rave w/Christy Hemme) vs Team 3D(Brother Ray and Brother Devon)
*Team 3D's music hits and then walk down the entrance ramp to boos. They slide into the ring under the bottom rope and raise their arms, taunting the fans.... Rock N Raves music now also hits and out of the bad guys ramp comes Lance Hoyt and Jimmy Rave. they get a mixed reaction as they pose on the top of the ramp with their fake guitars. They then run down the ramp and slide into the ring as well and get in their corner*
Jimmy Rave starts out against De-von as the bell trings. They circle eachother looking for a grapple. Rave mowves quickly but De-von charges down low and takes Raves legs out from under hi mwith a nice wrestling move. Rave is on themat now and De-von begins an attack. He stands over Rave and then drops a knee right into his ribs, making Rave clutch them in pain. De-von gets back up and drives his knee into Raves ribs again. Devon now grabbed Rave by the leg and dragged him to the far right corner and then tags in Brother Ray. Ray enters the ring and waits for Rave to get up. Once he does, Ray hits him across the chest with a slap, forcing Jimmy Rave into the corner.Ray mounts him now and begins reigning down the punches to the head.

Both men get back up at about the same time and start trading punches. Hoyt throws the first, and Ray returns right back. Hoyt again, Ray again, Hoyt again, Ray again, and both men are tired. Hoyt begins to stagger towards his corner, looking for a tag. However Ray runs up behind with all his energy and hits him with two hands across the back, knocking Hoyt down right as he was about to tag. Ray goes to work, stomping on Hoyt as Hoyt desperately reaches up towards Jimmy Raves hand... Finally he manages to get the tag, and Rave jumps over the top rope intot he ring. He unleashes a punch on Ray and then as Ray turns towards him, he hits an enzuigiri kick to the back of Rays head, knocking him to the mat. Rave, the much smaller competitor, manages to pull Ray back up to his feet though and again irish whip him into the left side turnbuckle of the six sided ring. He tags in Hoyt now and they work together. Rave irish whips Ray into the lower right side rope, and as Ray comes back, Rave drops to the mat, Ray runs overhim and Hoyt, the biggest man in the match jumps up and hits a dropkick, nailing Ray right in the face! The crowd is shocked that Hioyt, as big as he is managed to hit such a good move. Ray is on the mat now and Hoyt wastes no time. He walks over and pulls him back up. They trade punches for a few minutes now, back and forth, but Hoyt finally gets a hard kick to the midsection in, stunning ray. hoyt, the big man now lifts up Ray into powerbomb position. He now spins around and slams Ray down to the mat for a Texas TornadoBomb, flattening him into the mat. Hoyt goes for a cover...

Winners: Rock N Rave Infection
Woah, they actually picked up the win!
What a match that was. And a dramatic end.
It sure was Don, I think those two teams both put on a hell of a match!
*Rock N Raves music hits and Jimmy Rave runs into the ring to raise Hoyt arms. As they leave the ring ans walk to the back, Devon goes into the ring to help Ray and looks frustrated. Rock N Rave hold their arms hih all the way up the ramp and we go back to ringside.*
Wow, what a match.
That one was all the Rock N Rave Infection Mike.
I think your right Don. Now, it is our duty to inform you, the fans that Jim Cornette has suspended Kurt Angle from iMpact tonight, after Kurt pushed down Jim Cornette last week after handing back Kaz's X Division Title. So again. No Kurt Angle here tonight....
Backstage: Cornettes Office
*Backstage the camera is outside Jim Cornettes office. Tomko and AJ Styles are banging on the wooden door, trying frantically to get in.... Finally the door creeps open and Jim Cornette is there. He walks back into his office and takes a seat at his desk and Styles and Tomko follow*
Tomko: Listen Cornette. What the hell are you doing banning Kurt from the arena tonight? He had a message for Kaz!
*Styles and Tomko both lean on Cornettes desk angrily*
Cornette: Listen guys. Kurt stole Kaz's title belt two weeks ago, and then last week I used my force to get it back. But he resorted to hitting me, and for that, he recieved a one week ban from iMpact.
Styles: That a bunch of---
Cornette: EXCUSE ME MR.STYLES! Last time I cecked, I made the rules here.
*Cornetter stands up now angrily*
Cornette: Now listen, your lucky you two arent banned as well after you helped Kurt steal and attack that belt from Kaz two weeks ago!
Tomko: I dont think... You want this to get physical... Do you?
*Tomko mats his hands together now, making a fist*
Cornette: Thats it. Ive had enough. You two are now banned as well from iMpact tonight. Get out of here now.
* Tomko and AJ refuse to move*
Cornette: NOW!
* He walks around his desk and begins to push Tomko and AJ towards the door as the camera fades out*
Woah, what an announcement! Tomko and AJ are banned as well from Impact!
I cant believe it, the whole Angle Alliance is gone for the night.
You know that makes Kaz happy, but Kaz will still have a match later tonight in the main event!
Thats right Mike, Kaz wll take on Samoa Joe, and that should be a great match.
But right now, Hernandez from LAX will take on Black Reign, and this could turn violent.... Two weeks ago Reign and Rellik attacked LAX and then were named the number one contenders, and then last week, they cut a promo explaining just how sadistic they are, and in a preview of Against All Odds where the tag titles will be on the line, Hernandez takes on Black Reign... Next!
Match 2:Hernandez (W/ Homicide and Salinas) vs Black Reign (w/Rellik)
*Black Reign is already in the ring with Rellik on the outside.... LAX;s music hits and the arena flashes black and green! Homicide, Hernandez and their valet Salinas comes walking out in their usual attire. They raise their arms and walk fown to the ring. The crowd starts an "LAX, LAX" chant and they high five a few fans. Salinas slides into the ring sexily while Homicide and Hernandez walk up the steps into the ring. They walk around there as the lights come back on. Homicide goes back out of the ring with Salinas and Hernandez gets ready to fight in the ring.*
The bell rings and they walk right up to eachother. Reign stands there, looking demented and Hernandez gets right in his face, yelling right at him! Finally Hernandez throws a punch, connecting to Black reigns jaw. Reign tries to retaliate but Hernandez hooks him around the neck, and flips Reign to the mat with a snapmare. Reign is in a seated position and Hernandez delivers a stiff kick across the back of Black Reign. Hernandez then applies a headlock on Reign, still in a seated position, from behind. He keeps it locked it and Reign seems to make no effort to get out. Hernanedez releases the headlock after about a half minute, and thenw aits for Reign to get up... Reign slowly pushes himself up to his feet and is greeted by Hernandez who charges at him and hits a big boot to Reigns face, knocking him back to the mat! Hernandez now kicks him in the side, and again, and again, until Reign is fully on his stomach now, face down to the mat. Hernandez walks over Reign, as the crowd cheers on, and he puts his foot on Reigns head and pressures it into the mat! Hernandez keeps up the pressure for about 20 seconds andthen finally lets go and drops to the mat, rolls Reign over and go's for the cover...

He gets up now, bringing Reign with him. Hernandez goes for a clothesline but missed and Reign scoops him up and brings him own across his knee for a backbreaker! Hernandez is in pain on the mat, clutching his back. Reign now walks around the tring, rying to figure out what to do next.... From the outside, Homicide distracts him, yelling something at him, and Reign stares back over the ropes. As he turns around, Hernandez charges at him, but Reign steps aside and Hernandez misses him and goes into the left side turnbuckle. Hernandez bounces off and comes back and Reign ducks down and hits a back body drop, sending Hernandez crashing down to the mat! Reign now went to the top rope of the turnbuckle in the far right corner. He sat on top, debating what to do but Hernandez managed to get up and it stopped Reign from jumping. Hernandez walked over and physically pulled Reign down off the turnbuckle and to the mat. He then irish whipped him across the ring into the adjascent turnbuckle. As Reign came back Hernandez lifted him up and slammed him back down with a powerful spinebuster...

Kickout!
Hernandez rolls his eyes in frustration. He waits for Reign to stagger to his feet, kicks him in the rut, kifts him up on his back, stretching him out to set up the Border Toss. They are back to back with Hernandez holding Reign up. As he goes for the toss though,. reign kicks back and low blows Hernandez! They both fall to the mat... The ref looks confused. Hernandez rolls out of the ring and holding his midsection. The ref seems confused, but Hernandez goes into the crowd and grabs a chair! He slides back in and when Reign turns around, he nails him over the head with a picture perfect chair shot... The ref calls for the belt.
DQ!
Winner: Black Reign by DQ
I cant believe it, what a chair shot!
And the crowd loves it!
Well this was a warm up for the tag title match in two weeks at Against All Odds, but it ended early with a chairshot there by Hernandez!
Well last week Black Reign said he and Rellik were more sabistic and violent than LAX, but it looks like LAX proved them wrong!
*Black Reigns music hits and Rellik slides into the ring and aids Reign. In the meantime, LAX walks up the ramp, highfiving some fans on the way to the back...*
What a series of events, but the fans still love LAX, now to the back, where JB is with Matt Morgan!
Interview:Matt Morgan
*Matt Morgan is backstage in his wrestling gear, right in the camera. The camera zooms out and we see Jeremy Borash standing next to him now with his microphone*
JB: Im here with Matt Morgan who later tonight will go up against Maple Leaf Muscle Petey Williams, your thoughts on the match?
Morgan: Listen, I have no grudge against the guy, but that isnt going to stop me from picking up the victory. I have one goal, and thats to be the top guy in TNA, and being the Blueprint of the Perfext Wrestler, that shouldnt be too much of a problem!
JB: Well, I know before you had been aligned with Jim Cornette, and I just wanted to get your thoughts on him banning Kurt Angle. AJ Styles and Tomko from iMpact tonight?
Morgan: Jim Cornette is a very wise man. He knows what hes doing and in my opinion, he did the right thing. But I have a match to get ready for!
*The crowd cheers and Morgan walks away*
JB: Back to you Mike and Don...
Well thats the latest from The Blueprint Matt Morgan. And later tonight he'll take on Petey Williams and that should be a great match.
It sure will be Mike, but it'll be interesting to see who comes out on top.
And also tonight, we have that huge main event where TNA World Chapion and X Division Champion Kaz will take on Samoa Joe, no tile on the line though of course.
Backstage: Kaz and Samoa Joe
*Backstage the camera is staring at the door to Jim Cornettes office. Seconds later Kaz walks out with his X Division and TNA World Titles, and walks down the hallway. Samoa Joe runs up bbehind him and pats him on the back, getting Kaz to turn around*
Joe: Hey, listen I know we've got a match tonight, but I wanna let you know, I have the ultimate respect for you, and you standing up to Kurt.
Kaz: Thanks alot man.
Joe: Look champ, I dont know what in the hell Kurts talking about, but Im fine with you being X Division champ, because thats what your meant for. And Im also fine with you being the TNA World Champion, because you earned it. And Kurt was insanse, I repeat insane for trying to ssay you shouldnt be able to compete int he heavyweight division..

Morgans powerful music hits as pyro goes off on the stage, shortly after, Morgan steps out of the good guys entrance ramp and the crowd roars with cheers! The near 7 footer walks down to the ring, eyeing Petey williams and then goes to hi scorner in the six sided ring....*

Petey breaks the trend thoug wiht a hard slap to the face! This gives him enough time to get to his feet and then hit a dropkcik square into the face of Mogan, who was still on his knees and now collapses to the mat! Petey has momentum now and climbs the turnbuckle as Morgan is on the mat. Petey jumps onto the top left tucnbuckle, sets up on the top rope and then dives off with a frog splash.

Remember out big main event is still to come tonight folks, and we've just got word of something huge! Later tonight here on iMPACT, Jim Cornette will have a huge announcement regarding the Against All Odds PPV in two weeks.
I cant wait to here what that is. But wait, whats this....
Theres Rhino backstage! And he has done some dispicable acts in the past two weeks and the fans really hate him for it!
Backstage Area:
*Backstage Rhino leaves Jim Cornettes office. He walks down the hallway and the crowd boos him from the arena. Out of nowhere, Abyss attacks him from behind, nailing him with a chair over the back of the head! Rhino falls to the floor and Abyss stands over him. Out of the shadows then comes to Icon Sting! The crowd cheers from the arena and backstage, Sting and Abbyss continue standing overtop of Rhino. Cornette heard the noise in his office and comes running out...*
Cornette: Hey! Hey! What the hell happened here! Tell me what the hell happened.
Sting: Listen Cornette. Three weeks ago now, Rhino made quick work of me and actually went as far to insult my manhood, and question my hear, and tell me to hang em up and retire. Well last week, I put my career on the line, and beat him in that ring, only to be attacked by him afterwards. But Abyss here made the save, and I guess... I guess he just wanted some revenge...
Cornette: Revenge? You want revenge Abyss? Fine! I realize this started between Rhino and Sting, but due too the recent bad blood between you and Rhino, where you stick up for Sting, you two will settle this at Against All odds in two weeks. And it'll be in a First Blood match! Hope your happy!
* The crowd cheers and Sting pats Abss on the back. Abyss pats his hands together and looks determined as the camera fades out!*
Oh my god what a match!
I cant believe it, that''s going to be huge at Against All odds!
I hope Rhino is ok, but at the same time, he has done some dispicable assaults and verbal attacks to Sting over the past few weeks, and Abyss saved his friend and mentor, and this week it looks like he got his revenge! But up next, some great X Division action as Chris Sabin will take on the very energetic, very young Consequences Creed!
Match 4: Consequences Creed vs Chris Sabin w/ Alex Shelley
Creed look up and down at Sabin, sizing him up. Both men lunge at eachother and lock up for a grapple. They push back and forth, trying to get the upper hand. Sabin finally releases, and hits an arm drag on Creed. Creed is up seconds later and Sabin hits another one, and then another. The pace is fast and he follows it up with a dropkick now, dropping Creed back to the mat in the centre of the ring. Sabin goes to the outside now, and stands on the apron on the north (top) part of the ring. Creed gets up to his feet and then Sabin jumps off with a springboard style, wraps his legs around Creed and hits a hurricarana, flipping him to the mat and into a pin position...

This time after the pin, both men are out of gas and remain on the mat. The crowd applauds both men now, chanting a TNA chant as loud as ever.

Creed throws the first punch, and then the second, and third, an then finally Sabin throws a punch back at him. They full get standing up now and Sabin charges for a DDT, Creed ducks and as Sabin turns around, Creed kicks him in the gut, hooks his neck and hits the Creed-DT, driving Sabin face first into the mat.

Creed slowly climbs the rope and then jumps off in a second with a huge diving elblow drop, smashing his elbow into the abdomen of Sabin! Creed hooks the leg to go for a pin but changes his mind, thinking its not over yet. He pushes himself back up to his feet and pulls Sabin up with him. Creed now bounces off the northern ropes and charges back at Sabin and goes for a huge superkick, but misses. He turns around and Sabin unleashes a huge clothesline, spinning Consequences Creed completely over and down to the mat.

Wow, what a cradleshock!
Sickening impact! What a match!
*Sabins music hits and the ref helps him up. Alex Shelley comes into the ring and holds up Sabins arm with him and they leave the ring.*
What an X Division matchup that was.
It sure was, it had everything. High flying, high risk and even some good old brawling!
Up next, its going to be the debut of a new tag team here in TNA... They cal themselves the PuertoRican Nightmares, hailing from the country of Puerto Rico.
Mike, these are two great athlestes here in Eddie Colon and Eric Perez.
They sure are Don. Well, Eddie Colon, part of the legendary Colon family, is a small, agile competitor who would fit in well in the X Division. But Eric Perez, his partner of PuertoRican descent is also a very good in ring compeitor, standing at 6 foot 5, hes a big man, who likes to play the power game.
Im looking forward to this...
Match 5: The PuertoRican Nightmares(Eddie Colon and Eric Perez) vs Eric Young
*Eric Young's music hits and Young walks out from the back, biting his fingernails. As his pyro explodes, he jumps to the floor and covers his head, being his normal paranoid self. Then he slides into the ring and stands in the corner, awaiting the match.......... Some latio music hits, with bongos and chimes, and then out comes the big man, Eric Perez, in wrestling tights, looking huge on the ramp, and then behind him comes Eddie Colon in wrestling tights, looking somewhat like his brother Carlito. They walk slowly to the ring and up the steps before talking strategy in the corner...*Because its a handicap match, both men are aloud in the ring at the same time. They stalk Eric Young, who looks scared in the bottom left corner. They corner him now, and Perez throws a punch. Eddie Colon throws one of his own, and they take turns nailing Young, until Young falls to the mat. Colon now pulls Young up, and irish whips him into the top right corner, and Eric Perez then charges at Young and crushes him with a clothesline in the corner. Perez irish whips him to the centre of the ring towards Eddie Colon who then jumps up and dropkicks him, sending Young to the mat. Both men now stomp on Young on every body part... Colon now pullsup Young, turns him around towards the big man Eric Perez, Perez then kicks him in the gut, lifts him straight up with his legs in the air and then drops down, ramminmg Younds head into the mat with the PuertoRican Brainbuster. Perez goes for the cover...

Winners: The Puerto Rican Nightmares Eric Perez and Eddie Colon
Oh my god, what a dominating victory!
It sure was, but one has to think, it wasnt exactly fair...
*The latino music hits again with bongos and chimes and both men raise their arms. They exit the ring, walk up the ramp and we go back to ringside...*
I said it a few moments ago, that was impressive!
Another hot tag team to add here in TNA, and I can honestly say, we here in TNA have the best X Division and best Tag Team division of any wrestling promotion in the world.
I agree Don, no doubt about it.And now its time for our main event. Folks, its gonna be the TNA X Division Champ and TNA World Champion Kaz taking on another fan favorite... Samoa Joe!
Well Kaz's rival and the man he'll face in two weeks Kurt Angle is banned along with Tomko and AJ from iMpact tonight, and that means Kaz doesnt have to worry about any interference, so this should be a great match.
Thats right, we all know Kaz's history with Angle, a few weeks ago Angle made it clear he didnt respect Kaz, and that he didnt think Kaz should be aloud to be TNA Heavyweight champ since hes an X Division Wrestler. After that, with the help of AJ and Tomko, he stole Kaz's X Division Belt. And last week, when Jim Cornette forced him to hand over the belt, Kurt insulted Kaz's size, calling him a runt, and then pushed Cornette. That gt him banned, and also, Angle wont be aloud to have his match for the TNA Heavyweight World Title, instead at Against All Odds, as punishment, itll only be for the TNA X Division Title.
But Kaz wont have to worry about anything tonight as he takes on Samoa Joe.
Thats next!
Match 6: Kaz vs Samoa Joe
*Joes music hits and seconds later he comes through the tunnel with pyro going off above him. The crow cheers on his way to the ring as Joe looks focused and determind to make a statement... He waits in the ring and pats his hands together, awaiting his opponent........kazs music hits and the crowd cheers loudly! The double chamipon walks out with a belt on each schoulder and poses on the top of the entrance ramp. He walks to the ring and several fans pat him on the back on the way down. Kaz slides into the ring, hands the ref his elt sd goes to the corner...*
They bell rings and both men shake hands in the centre of the ring. They take a few steps back and eye eachother up. Both men have their arms outstretched as if to be looking for a grapple. They are hesitant but finally Joe goes to lock it, however Kaz sticks out his leg and trips Joe to the mat. Joe is up quickly but Kaz gives him no time and hits a german suplex on Joe, and follows that up by dropping the knee to Joes facial area... There is no permanent damage and Joe is able to get up at around the same time as Kaz. They look for a grappls again in the centre of the ring, but as Kaz goes to lock in, Joe irish whips him into the northern ropes and then as Kaz comes back, Joe jumps up and hits him with his trademark back heel kick, knocking Kaz to the mat! Joe now goes for a pin attempt...

Kickout by Kaz!
The crowd pops for the kickout and Joe pulls Kaz back to his feet. Joe holds him there and shows a bit of a viscious streak holding Kaz still and delivering a hard knee right into the stomach. And again, and Joe follows it up with one more devastating knee before irish whipping Kaz into the bottom left turnbuckle. Joe charges now, but as he gets there, Kaz gets his boot up and it hits JKoe in the face, backing him up... Joe is staggering and Kaz has time to recover, gets infront of Joe and hits a leg hook fishermans suplex, perfctlly and then goes for the pin...

Kickout by Joe!
The crowd cheers for Joe now too and begin a "Joe is gonna kill you" chant, followed by a "Kaz" chant. Both men roll now and Joe ends up rolling out of the ring, he stands up out there and thenr eaches in and pulls Kaz out to the outside by the legs as well! They begin to brawl on the outside, trading shots, until Joe irish whips Kaz, and Kaz goes flipping over the steel steps, landing on his back! Joe is in control now and senses it, so he paces for a few seconds and then walks over to Kaz and rolls him into the ring. Joe steps between the ropes now and gets back into the ring as well, and now with Kaz on the floor, he rolls Kaz over and begins executing a Camel Clutch!
Kaz is near the southside ropes and reaches with all the has towards them, desperately trying to save himself. Joe keeps it locked in though, pulling back as hard as he can........ Kaz barely gets his fingertips on the rope, and the ref makes Joe break the hold. Kaz holds his neck on the ground, feeling the eddects of that brutal camel clutch, and Joe paces around the ring........... Finally Kaz begins to get up,a nd Joe lets him, but is the first one to throw a punch. Kaz retaliates with two right hands, but Joe then throws again. However Kaz ducks, runs into the southside ropes, comes back at Joe for an attack but Joe picks him up out of owhere and hits a scoop slam, driving Kaz back to the mat... Joe remains on top for the pin...

Kickout by Kaz!
The crowd pops again, and Joe looks a little frustrated as he gets back to his feet. Kaz is still flat on his back, Joe now backs up a bit, towards the ropes and then runs forward, jumps up and goes for a big splash, but Kaz rolls out of the way, and Joe crashes face/stomach first into the mat!
The crowd wills Kaz on now, beginning to chant "Kaz, Kaz, Kaz, Kaz" although Kaz is still looking to be in pain. However he obviously gets up before Joe. As he pulls Joe to his feet, Joe punches Kaz, delivers a kick to the gut and lifts Kaz up on his shoulders! He uses all his strength but Kaz slides off Joes shoulders, stands beside him, wraps his arms around Joe and hits a reverse DDT/STO driving Joes face to the mat with The Wave Of The Future!
The crowd erupts and Kaz rolls over onto Samoa Joe...

Pinfall!
Winner: Kaz
Kaz wins! Kaz wins!
What a grueling match!
Kaz's music plays and he is helped to his feet by the ref. The ref also hands him both the X Division and World Title belt, and Kaz wraps the X Division around his waist and holds the world title. Joe gets to his feet and leaves the ring as Kaz poses ontop of the top left turnbuckle... The camera goes to backstage...
Interview: Christian
*Jeremy Borash is backstage in the hallway area with Christian. Christian is in his wrestling gear and JB holds up the mic*
JB: Christian, in the past few weeks after losing the TNA Heavyweight Championship, you have put on two great, and I mean great matches here on iMpact. But in other news, it seems youve been recruited by Robert Roode to join Roode Inc. Your thoughts?
Christian: You know what JB? Your right, I have been on a roll. Annd your also right when you say Roode wanted me in Roode Inc... But as I explained at the start of iMpact tonight, thats not gonna happen. You see, a few weeks back he tried to recruit te entire X Division, but we all know that didnt happen, and now it seems hes a little bit pissed at Jay Lethal. And so now I dont join Roode Inc and he has a bunch of gangsters come up and attack me? And then he expects me to come out this week and say Ill join Roode Inc? I want some of what hes on because its sure making him see things a little differently than everyone else JB!
JB: Well Christian, could you please explain for us what happened that made the deal between you and Robert Roode fall through?
Christian: What do you think.? It was the same situation with me as what happened with the X Division, he just approached me, I said Id thinmk about it, and all of a sudden he thinks Im joining Roode Inc? Well he had a different thing coming, cause thats not the case. And dont get me wrong, I dont like Jay Lethal either, but I can at least respect him.. Respect him for standing up to Roode!
*Christian walks off and the camera fades out*
Well that sums that up. Its pretty obvious Christian is looking forwards to the PPV in two weeks to get his hands on Robert Roode.
That triple thread match is going to be a hell of a match, and theres a great rivalry growing between those three men there.
Wait, whats this? Its Kurt Angle in the parking lot....
Parking Lot: Kurt Angle
*Kurt is standing in the backstage area is his usual suit and sunglasses. He's pacing around in fron of a camera, holding a baseball bat*
Angle: Hey, listen up! You think you can ban me Jim Cornette? And you think that you can keep my face, the face of TNA, from appearing on iMpact? I dont freakin' think so! Do you know who I am? Im KUrt Angle! But enough about you...
*Kurt takes off his glasses and looks into the camera*
Angle: I have a message for that joke of a champion named Kaz. I know you just had a match against that fat piece of shit Samoa Joe... But Ive heard that as part of my suspension, instead of facing you for your TNA Title at Against All odds, I hhave to settle for your X Division Belt... Thats pretty stupid if you ask me, but fine, Ill take your X Division Title in two weeks, then Ill take your TNA World Title as well! But in the meantime why dont you meet me out here and we can settle this like men...
*Angle pats his bat with his hand nowand cockily stares into the camera...*
Angle: Come on kaz, what do ya s---
*Before he can finish, Kaz jumps him from behind and knocks him to the ground. Kaz kicks Angle in the ribs, pulls him back to his feet and tosses him into a nearby car. Out of nowhere though. Tomko and AJ Styles come up from behind and attack Kaz, pushing him to the ground and then stomping all over him! Tomko picks himback up, punches him in the face and then tosses himface first into the side of the arena.AJ and Tomko now walk over and begin choking out Kaz on the wall, ad Kaz seems out of it. Tomko sits him down now, stands over him behind and begins nailing hard knuckles into teh forehead of Kaz, busting him right open! Kurt now gets up to his feet on the other side of the parking lot, picks up his bat and walks over. Blood streams down Kaz's face and Tomko now stands him up and holds him up in a headlock. AJ watches on closely adn now Kurt winds up te bat, pulls it back and then swings right into the gut of kaz! Again, he swings, this time into Kaz's chest! Kaz squirms, clutching his stomach in pain and trying to get up. Tomko lets go and Kaz falls to the ground, landing face first on the hard parking lot ground. Angle now kneels down over Kaz and begins to yell at him...*
Angle: What do ya think now Champ! You see what you get when you mess with Kurt freaking Angle! I warned you, it was bad business for you to become TNA World Champion while your an X Division Wrestler, and now you saw what happens! Come on guys...
*Angle gets up and walks away as Tomko and AJ in street clothes follow. A limo pulls up and The Angle Alliance gets in and drives off as the camera goes back to ring side...*
Oh my god, what a brutal assault.
Im speechless Mike, that was disguisting.
It really was, Angle called out Kaz, only to ambush him with Tomko and AJ.
I cant believe it, even with Kurt banned from the arena, he still got to Kaz.
Well you know whats up next dont you DW!
Jim Cornettes announcement! I cant wait!
And speaking of that, hes on his way to the ring now!

*As we move away from ringside, Cornette is already making his way up the ringsteps and into the ring... holding a microphone!*
Cornette: Ladies and gentleman, I have some exciting news to bring to you as we close off tonights show....

*Cornette pats his side on his suit jacket, and gives a little smirk....*
Cornette: So without further ado It is my honor... my privelidge, to announce that I am now officially here to introduce the brand new...... TNA...United Seas championship!
*He pulls out a title belt from inside his suit and holds it up! (It looks similar to WWE's World Heavyweight Championship) The crowd applauds and Cornette now places it over his shoulder and holds up the mic again.......*

Because there, there we will have a 5 man over the top battle royale, to determine the first ever TNA iMpact Champion! And please say hello to the five men competeing in that match. First, the cocky... But impressive... Johnny Devine!
*Johnny Devines music hits and he comes out of the bad guy entrance on the right side of the ring. He walks down to the bottom of the ramp as the crod boos and then stops there...*
Cornette: And ladies and gentleman, the second man who will compete in this match... The legend... Booker T!
*Booker's music comes on quickly and he walks down the good guy ramp on the right side of the ring as the crowd cheers. He stops at the bottom of the ramp....*

*Lashleys music hits out of nowhere and the crowd erupts. Lashley comes out the tunnel and poses at the top of the good guys ramp! Pyro goes off and he does his trademark pose and muscle flx on the stage! He walks down the ramp and looks focused on the belt. All the wrestlers on the ramp look stunned, good and bad guys. They all stare at Lashley and Lashley walks into the ring, and shakes Cornettes hand!
