Coming from Las Vegas for the 1st time TNA is in HD!
Totally new opening titles and some idiot runs the graphic of Sting BACKWARDS so it appears to raining upwards.
Velvet Sky (with Angelina Love & Cute Kip) vs Christy Hemme. Sky didn't impress much, Hemme won off the FFG.
Kurt Angle announces the creation of The Main Event Mafia (Kurt Angle, Booker T, Kevin Nash & Sting).
Booker T announces the contents of the briefcase (mark for the crowd chanting "No More Accent!"), The TNA Legends championship - a new belt that Booker announces himself the holder of (well lets see what problems we have here. First off is this belt sanctioned by anyone and that includes TNA? Secondly doesn't he actually have to win the belt in ANY kind of
match to hold it?). Christian Cage challemges him for the belt at the next PPV.
X Division CHampionship - Jat Lethal vs Sheik Adbul Bashir. Bashir won off the WMD. Shit match, too short.
Hardcore Tagteam Gauntlet - Basically its a singles Battle Royal with 2 guys starting off and another guy coming in every 60 seconds until 2 guys are left then it becomes a tagmatch. 1st in is James Storm, next in is Brother Ray. Next in is Robert Roode so both of Beer Money were in early. Beer Money worked Ray pretty well, next in was Brother Devon so this was already a tagmatch with Team 3D v Beer Money. Next in was Hernandez. Next in was Homicide whose Tornado DDT on Devon was either flubbed or just not sold at all as it looked incredibly scrappy. Next in was Matt Morgan whose big boot to Roode was way oversold and shot on totally the wrong camera showing far too much air. Morgan eliminated Homicide & Devon within seconds of each other, he then eliminated Hernandez a few moments later so LAX were out.
Abyss was the last guy out and Morgan was telling him not to come in the ring (due to his fire injuries from the PPV). Morgan was then eliminated by Brother Ray & Robert Roode working together. Whoever was running the countdown clock failed to count the correct number of
entrants as it was still counting down despite the fact everybody had already come out to the ring. Devon set up the fire table as the fans were chanting ECW. Team 3D eliminated Abyss (which technically shouldn't have been legal as Devon had already been eliminated and they weren't down to the last 2 guys yet) leaving it as Team 3D v Beer Money in a tagmatch
where tables are legal. Team 3D had this won after they hit Roode with the 3D through the table but Jaqueline pulled the ref out just before he could make the 3 count leaving Storm to make the pin on Devon after spitting beer into his face.
TNA Knockout Championship - Awesome Kong (with Raisha Saeed) vs Taylor Wilde. Scrappy start (especially the very bad camera angle on Kongs "clothesline" on as Wilde jumped off the top turnbuckle. Wildes faceplant then Hurricanrana on Kong were both pretty great moves (I seriously mark for Kong selling the Hurricanrana that well). Kong hit The Awesome Bomb and is
the new Knockout Champion.
Tagteam Grudge Match, Sting & Kevin Nash v sSamoa Joe & AJ Styles. Styles & Nash kicked this off, Joe took it to Sting when Nash tagged himself out. AJ's Pele on Sting was excellent. Nash took the eventual win after hitting Joe with Stings title belt. Styles & Joe had the better of this match but it wasn't very good as main events go. Hebner had to pick Joes blade off the canvas and didn't make a very good job of concealing it either.
Mick Foley's "major announcement" is he's become a TNA stockholder. Everyone boos when Foley says WWE.
