TNA iMPACT! Spoilers for next Thursday - 22/7/10 **Spoilers**

D2D

TNA Impact for 7/22
*We open with the standard pyro as Taz and Mike Tenay welcome us.

*TNA Global champion Rob Terry vs. AJ Styles. Pretty decent with Kaz trying help Styles every chance he gets. At one point, Terry does push ups with Styles. In the end, Styles uses the ropes to get the pin and become the new Global champion. Fortune gets their first title.

*Sarita and Madison Rayne are speaking backstage about their issues with Velvet Sky and Taylor Wilde, respectively. Sky shows up. Sky accuses Sarita of being the motorcycle woman. They mention the Knockouts Tag Team titles will be defended tonight.

*Angelina Love and Taylor Wilde vs. Sarita and Madision Rayne. Before the match, Earl Hebner announces that since the TNA Board of Directors has no proof it was actually a member of the Beautiful People who interfered at Victory Road, the Knockouts championship must go back to Rayne. Love hands the belt over to Hebner and Rayne is champion again. The match goes back and forth. Love and Taylor win. The Motorcycle woman arrives and helps beat down Love and Wilde. Velvet Sky and Lacey Von Erich come out on the stage as the heels are leaving and Rayne convinces Lacey to leave with her, leaving Sky alone on the ramp.

*Mick Foley, Rhino, Raven, Stevie Richards and Tommy Dreamer are seen arriving at the Impact Zone.

*Kurt Angle vs. Hernandez. Pretty good match. Lots of near falls but in the end, Angle locks in the anklelock and Hernandez taps. I'd assume this was a ranking match and Angle is after #6 next.

*After the match, Kevin Nash comes out and calls out Jeff Jarrett. After a minute or so, Jarrett comes out. Nash says that he thought about what Jarrett said last week, but that it wasn't Sting who is the log in the TNA punchbowl, but Jarrett. Jarrett says he doesn't know what Nash is talking about. Nash blames Jarrett for the entire Scott Hall and Sean Waltman contract issues. He tells Jarrett he is a selfish son of a b***h and walks off. Jarrett is left speechless.

*Samoa Joe vs. Jeff Hardy for the first time ever, so they are giving away a PPV bout for free. The match starts off with Joe chants then Hardy chants start, building to dueling chants as the two battle around ringside. Pretty back forth between the two with lots of near falls. Joe takes advantage by keeping it mat based wrestling so Hardy cannot get his high flying stuff going. Lots of powerful chops by Joe. More near falls. Joe has the crossface locked in but hardy gets his foot to the ropes. Fans chanting for Hardy. They keep going and the bell rings for a time limit draw. They keep going at it as the referees try to keep them apart.

*Mr. Anderson pinned Matt Morgan with the Mic Check. Morgan attacks Anderson after the match when he calls for the mic and bloodies him. Anderson is helped out by the trainers.

*TNA Tag Team champions The Motor City Machineguns vs. Beer Money in a No Rules Street Fight. Match #2 of 5 match series. Beer Money out first in t-shirt and jeans with kneepads on out, Next are the Guns dressed in shirts and their wrestling outfits. The fight goes straight up the ramp immediately. One of the Guns hold Storm so the other can sprint up the ramp with a kick. Beer Money uses a chair to take back over. Beer Money clothesline referee Brian Hebner. The Guns use a trash can on Storm. Earl Hebner runs in but is bumped and there's no referee. Storm cracks a beer bottle over one of the Gun's heads. They drag a ref over to count and get the pinfall. Beer Money are up 2-0.

*Christy Hemme interviewed TNA champion Rob Van Dam. Both mentioned the ECW letters as Van Dam said ECW was where he first became a star and it was great to be back with the boys again last week.

*TNA President Dixie Carter came out to address what happened last week with Tommy Dreamer. She notes that she had invited the former ECW stars to TNA. Dreamer put over ECW legends like Taz and made it clear there is no invasion of TNA and he is working for TNA now. He said that "One Night Stand" in 2005 was closure for him but Vince McMahon had to go and bring ECW back and forced Tommy to watch his close friends and family get fired one by one until Dreamer couldn't take it anymore and left. Dreamer said that his friends have been begging him for two years to come to TNA but he had two daughters and couldn't pass up the big paycheck he was getting but in the end, he had to walk away. When he came to Slammiversary and met with the talent before the show and felt the spirit of the fans, he knew this was the place to be. Dreamer was crying during the promo. Dreamer said that several years ago, they were promised things that didn't come true and it wasn't fair to the wrestlers or the fans. Dreamer asked Carter to give everyone "one last night." Carter agreed, but only if the former ECW crew have "full control" of the PPV. Dreamer promised they were going to take the Impact Zone "to the Extreme" and do it so everyone can remember the original company one last time, not the way it was when Vince McMahon shut it down. Abyss interrupts and says "they are not happy. This wasn't supposed to happen and they are downright pissed." Abyss says it was Dixie's fault and he goes after her but Van Dam attacked him. Everyone hits their finisher on Abyss. Devon comes out and they do the "Get the Tables" and RVD hits the Five Star Frog Splash.

I forgot to mention this but during the show where was a Mick Foley promo where he thanked Dixie Carter for bringing him back and said that he was going to say goodbye on his terms, no one else's.

Beer Money go 2 up on MCMG, Angle takes down #7, Hardy/Joe goes out on free tv and Hard Justice will be an ECW-style PPV

At least they were smart enough to do a time limit draw this time which should help build interest in a future match on PPV (which is what I thought they should've done with Joe/RVD). Looks like another good, wrestling heavy iMPACT!.

Why do I feel like the Guns tag title reign will be short

Who else is in Fortune besides Kaz and Styles? Is Beer Money and Wolfe also?

I really was looking forward to a Kaz and Styles feud

It's booking 101. Stack the odds against the faces and then have them look great for fighting back - I still see The Guns coming out on top. No one else is in Fortune yet. The Xplosion taping looked quite good.

*Desmond Wolfe and Magnus defeated Amazing Red and Suicide.

*In a comedy match, Generation Me defeated Eric Young and Orlando Jordan. They did a deal where Young and Jordan couldn't get along. At one point, Young tried to tag out to the Bucks to get away from Jordan.

So who are Abyss' they? It's not the ECW guys and it appears to be nothing to do with Foley. Interesting to see how that turns out.

Well the spoilers did say:

Abyss interrupts and says "they are not happy."

So it's got to be:




Dunphy will put his name on anything. He'd do it. Show him the money Dixie!

Only Dreamer is the only ECW star not in TNA before all the others have been does Dixie think the fans dont remember this :rolleyes:

MCMG V Beer Money Round 2 was another great match
