Winners: Cage and Rhino @ 4:10 via pin
JB is with Kurt Angle, with gold medal. He is holding his neck brace and JB asks how his neck is. Angle says it is sore, stiff, injured; not a secret. He has worn it all week, but it IS Olympic week, better yet, Angle week. A hero was born in 1996 as he won a gold medal. He is the greatest wrestler that ever lived, but TNA doesn’t see that. He had to fight in a last man standing match, not a wrestling match. He is a role model, and he abided by the rules. AJ didn’t. He cheated to win and attacked him and tried to break his neck twice, thank God for Sting saving him. Tonight he chooses the match, and he says that they will have a gold medal challenge. No ropes, three two minute periods and points count. The winner gets the gold medal. He won the gold medal with a broken FRICKEN NECK, and can do it again with an injured one. Get ready for a mauling AJ, it’s real, it’s d**n real!
JB is with AJ Styles. JB runs down the events of Hard Justice, and AJ says he promised that Kurt Angle would not get up. He stood behind that and he did not get back up. JB brings up Sting, and AJ says a man he looked up too chose him to make an example out of. He was wrong about Sting. He is no different from Angle, but if he thinks he will make an example out of AJ, he is d**n wrong. AJ accepts the challenge, and says the gold will come home with him tonight.
West and Tenay speculate about the mystery guitar and Sting’s appearance at the PPV.
Lauren is with Matt Morgan, and he says that he has goals. Since he began he has been a PPV main event waiting to happen, and in TNA you make opportunity. He set a goal when he set foot in TNA, and that is to become the world champion and he doesn’t care who it is he has to beat. Stack the guys up against him, because the blue print will knock them down.
Matt Morgan vs. Johnny Devine
Devine gets no entrance, sup jobber? Morgan does his Brock hop, they stand off, Devine talks **** and slaps Morgan. He runs, Morgan chases and tosses him down. Clothesline from Morgan, gets the corner charge but then misses a big boot and crotches himself. Devine clubs away at him, Morgan tosses him down and then takes his head off with a big boot. HELLEVATOR for Devine and that is all.
Winner: Matt Morgan @ 1:00 via pin
Team 3D is out and attacks Morgan. They beat him down and Abyss is now out to make the save. He tosses down a cameraman, black hole slam for Devine, who was tossed into Abyss by 3D. Morgan and Abyss stand off, Morgan offers to shake his hand and Abyss accepts.
KAREN’S ANGLE
Karen’s guests this week are the Beautiful People, Angelina Love and Velvet Sky. They requested to be on the show, and they are heart broken because nobody likes them. Angelina cries a bit, so fake and she b*****s about the tissue given to her. Karen says they should be nice and they laugh her off. She says they are whining and are here to introduce someone they hired to primp and dress them. Kip James. He mocks Karen and calls her a witch. Karen ends the interview as Kip makes fun of her even more.
Katie Kim, Gail’s sister is in attendance.
Lauren is with Jay Lethal, and he is upset because Val hasn’t spoken to him since the PPV. He says Val needs to choose between he and Sonjay. Val had a big heart, which is why he loves her, but when it comes to Sonjay, s***w her. This thing is NOT over until he says it is over.
Bashir talks, he doesn’t care if we boo or cheer him, because he understands. He stole everything lady America had, money, cars, real estate, and fame. It wasn’t difficult to take because she wanted someone to have it. But as we lazily stood by for a handout, the Middle Eastern Nightmare took his. But he doesn’t love lady America, no; he just loves raping her.
Sheik Abdul Bashir vs. Jay Lethal
Jay tackles him and starts to beat his *** for that rape comment. Chops by Jay, a whip, hip toss, cartwheel and dropkick all connect. To the ropes, Bashir to the floor and Jay gets a suicide dive! Back in the ring we go, double ax smash off the top by Jay gets 2. An Irish whip, reversal and Bashir then pulls Jay off the 2nd rope. A neck breaker follows and then another, that gets a cover for 2. Knees by Bashir and then the chinlock. Jay to his feet, escapes and then counters a slam and covers for 2. Jay counters a neck breaker, but double chops by Bashir gets a cover for 2. Back to the chinlock, rakes the back and Jay counters a clothesline and gets three of his own. To the corner, chops and a whip and backdrop and cover for 2 by Jay. A jawbreaker by Bashir, chops and Jay gets a small package, rolls through into a suplex for 2. Rights in the corner by Jay, lays the boots to Bashir and the ref backs him off. Bashir gets a SPIKE and nails Jay in the throat. A boot and DDT by Bashir, the WMD, gets the win.
Winner: Sheik Abdul Bashir @ 5:25 via pin
Sonjay is out after the match and goes up top and gets a 450 on Jay.
JB is with Booker T and Sharmell. Booker looks insane and says what is on his mind is the guitar. He still has the bump on his head. He had Joe beat in the six sides of steel with weapons that will hurt a man. Is it a joke? Doesn’t that hick have an interest in the company? Well if you mess with the bull and you get the horns. And if you mess with Booker, you get his foot up your… He isn’t going there. He will let his actions speak for him.
We get a Sting video package.
After Hard Justice they left the cameras rolling and we see Nash and Sting talking. Sting says he is not confused at all, and he has run out of patience. His clock is ticking, and Nash should check his because it is now or never.
Team 3D vs. Samoa Joe and Kevin Nash
Devon and Joe will kick things off for this tag match. Off the ropes and Joe levels Devon. Back elbow and kick in the corner, and Devon is down. Devon battles back, tag to Ray and a double suplex on Joe and Ray covers for 2. Jabs by Joe, off the ropes and a snap mare Ray. Chops, kicks and a knee drop all connect. Tag to Nash, corner attack straight from the Nash 101 playbook. Bog boot choke follows, Devon cheap shots him but Nash side slams him and covers for 2. We head to a commercial @ 3:00. We are back from commercial @ 6:45 with 3D in control over Nash. Devon works the knee of Nash, no torn quad so we’re ok thus far. Devon cannon balls the knee, tags Ray and he comes in and sends Joe to the floor. Single leg by Ray, knee bar applied and Nash tries to stay alive. Single leg crab by Ray, he uses the ropes for leverage and then releases the hold. Tag to Devon, Ray whips him and a boot by Nash to counter. Clothesline for Ray and all three are down. Tag to Joe and he cleans house on 3D. Enziguri to Ray, atomic drop and leg lariat to Devon. Leaping knee to Ray! Head butt by Devon, Nash in and a boot to Devon. Joe covers for 2.
