LIVE SPOILERS from TNA Impact Tapings: Samoa Joe Decides About the Gold.

Please credit Alan J. Wojcik of http://alanwojcik.com if ued, thanks.

These are the 100% complete live spoilers from the TNA IMPACT Tapings. By the end of this evening we will know the fate of World X Division champion & new TNA World Tag Team champion Samoa Joe. Only during the first hour did we see any backstage interviews.



Hour one notes:



Jeremy Borash was sent by Jim Cornette to find World champion Kurt Angle. But he found Angle in a tanning bed and he refused to go see Cornette. Angle also accused Borash of “checking out his package.” Angle felt Samoa Joe was going to surrender the tag titles after was screwed over on Sunday.



(1) XXX (“PrimeTime” Elix Skipper, “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels & Senshi) defeated Serotonin (Raven, Havok & Martyr)

That’s right the multi-time former World Tag Team champions reunited last Sunday when Daniels became #1 contender to the World X Division title. XXX wasted no time in their trickery as Skipper went to lockup with Havok and Daniels jumped him from behind. The XXX advantage ended when raven hit Daniels in the back with the Singapore cane. That allowed Serotonin to take over Daniels in their corner of the ring. Martyr had Daniels in a front facelock when Skipper hit a slingshot move that let Daniels free so he could tag in Senshi. The end came for Havok who got hit with a Skipper legdrop, Daniels’ BME and Senshi’s Warrior’s Way.



After the match Frankie “the Future” Kazarian attacked Serotonin and left before he could suffer any real damage. Jeremy Borash came back to Angle’s tanning bed to find Angle tanning his buttocks. He told Angle that Cornette would fine him $10,000 if he didn’t come to the office. Angle got out of the tanning bed to find all of his clothes and two title belts missing. So he left the room in his bikini briefs. Mike Tenay & Don West were addressing the home audience when Team 3D crashed the party. They said they knew the Steiner Brothers were not in the building but were watching at home. Ray said they cost Team 3D their World Tag Team titles and wanted to repay them face to face next week. Devon didn’t like something Tenay said and he choked him as Ray grabbed the timekeeper’s hammer threatening to hit Tenay. Kurt Angle began his search for his clothing and he questioned the TNA locker room. He accused Shark Boy of smiling like it was a joke, so he attacked him. Maybe Angle wasn’t wearing his glasses broke by Serotonin last Sunday or he just didn’t realize Shark wears a mask.



(2) Voodoo Kin Mafia member Kip James (w/BG James & Roxxi Laveaux) defeated Lance Hoyt (w/Christy Hemme).

Both Kip and Hoyt fought a power match in the early moments until Kip sent Hoyt to the floor where he followed and laid in some punches. Hoyt tried to avoid the punches and Laveaux as best he could and the tide turned when Kip focused on Hemme instead of Hoyt. Hoyt attacked and took the match back to the ring. Kip fought back with a Thesz press and avoided a Hoyt boot to hit “the One and Only” to win. After the match Hemme tried to crotch shot Kip but got stopped and Laveaux came in to hit a Styles Clash-like move sending Hemme to the locker room in Hoyt’s arms.



Kurt Angle met with the TNA production crew trying to find his lost items. He told everyone he would count to ten and they could return his stuff. Poor David Sahadi had to endure Angle’s package being near his face as the countdown occurred. A cameraman decided to leave but Angle attacked him thinking he was the thief.



(3) “Instant Classic” Christian Cage & “Tennessee Cowboy” James Storm (w/Jacqueline Moore, a six pack of longnecks & Tomko) defeated “War Machine” Rhino & “Wildcat” Chris Harris.

These four men met in singles matches on Sunday night so Jim Cornette decided to let them settle their differences. Harris jumped Cage at the opening bell and went to work with the punches before tagging in Rhino. However Rhino took his focus off Cage for too long and looking for Storm cost him. Cage hit Rhino with a clothesline off the ring apron. Cage & Storm kept Rhino isolated from his corner for several minutes. Harris tried to aid Rhino but it only did harm as Cage kept the referee busy, Storm hit a running boot to the face. Somehow Cage ended up on Storm’s shoulders as Rhino was on the top buckle and Rhino raked Storm’s eyes. Rhino hit Cage with a clothesline and tagged into a fired up Harris. Rhino had Storm set for the GORE but Cage pulled him to the floor. Storm went for the Superkick but Harris blocked it and hit the Catatonic but Tomko pulled referee Rudy Charles to the floor. Harris looked for the referee and Dustin Rhodes hit him in the back with a chair. Storm crawled over and covered Harris to win. After the match the real fun began as Rhino attacked anyone that moved including Moore but Rhino picked her up for a powerslam. He made the mistake of losing sight of Tomko, who kicked Rhino in the face making Moore fall onto Rhino. When you thought things were done Abyss came looking for revenge on Cage. Cage hightailed it but backed into Sting and the baseball bat. Sting tossed Cage into Abyss for some retribution.



A nicely robed Kurt Angle came into the Impact Zone. Angle said he had a sense of humor and enjoyed being ribbed but the joking was over. He even accused the fans of stealing his stuff and putting it on E-Bay. That brought out Samoa Joe who came with his three title belts and Angle’s wardrobe plus the World title belt. Joe decided to make his announcement. He wanted to bury the hatchet with Angle so he gave Angle back his two title belts and clothing. Joe said like Angle he wants to find out who is the best in the world. Joe said at Hard Justice he wanted Angle one more time where the winner takes all the gold. Angle accepted and Joe headbutted him right in the forehead. Joe laid out Angle and then went for a table. But Angle escaped Joe’s clutches and drove Joe into the table, locking the Ankle Lock on Joe. Afterwards Jeremy Borash filmed some stuff for TNA Today.



Hour two notes:



(1) NO DQ match, Sting defeated Robert Roode (w/Ms. Brooks).

Not too sure what happened between these two to make it a no DQ match. Roode jumped Sting at the bell and the violence began. Sting fought back introducing Roode’s head to the top turnbuckles and followed him to the floor. Ting tossed Roode into the guardrails and the stairs as Brooks objected. Roode fought back but his piledriver but Sting backdropped Roode on the rampway. Brooks kept Sting busy as Roode got a chair and hit Sting in the back. Roode came back into the ring with a top rope clothesline for two as Eric Young came out painted like Sting. Roode ignored Young and hit Sting with a top rope knee for two before locking in a bear hug. Sting tried to escape so Roode backed him to a corner but his chest chops had zero effect. Sting was 100% fired up and took it out on Roode & Brooks. Roode avoided the Stinger Splash and fought off the Scorpion Deathlock, hitting Sting with a spinebuster for two. Brooks gave Roode a chair but Young took it and Sting won via the Scorpion Death Drop.



(2) Latin American Xchange (“Notorious 187” Homicide & Hotstuff Hernandez) defeated Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & “the Future” Chris Sabin).

At the bell the Gun dropkicked Hernandez to the floor so they could double team Homicide for several minutes. The Notorious One fought back and tagged in Hernandez who tossed around the Guns. But the Guns fought back with a series of kicks to the head of Hernandez. LAX double teamed Shelley and sent him to the floor with a hurt back. Sabin escaped the Cop Killer but couldn’t avoid a LAX double team from the top rope.



The LAX celebration was interrupted by Team 3D who told them to hit the bricks; they only wanted the Steiner Brothers in the ring. LAX reluctantly stepped out of the ring as the show went to commercial. 3D egged on the fans waiting for the Steiner’s. The fans made fun of 3D member Devon who owns a smoothie shop in Florida. 3D got their wish and the Steiner Brothers hit the ring. Scott said no one calls out the Steiner’s they do the calling out. Scott said the Latin Nation were his favorite people after his injury during a TNA Event in Puerto Rico. Scott said he was upset he missed Slammiversary due to a trachea injury that nearly killed him. To the shock of everyone in the thank you to the PR medical team that saved him, Scott also thanked the fans for the well wishes he received. Ray said that Scott got injured by a second rate PR wrestler and Team 3D could take him out, even going as far as doubting the actuality of any injury. Scott showed off his scar on the right side of his chest. Ray said that injury was nothing compared to the ones in the ECW locker room. The arguing was not over as the Voodoo Kin Mafia came out to join the former World Tag Team reunion saying they were the best team in wrestling history. Scott said yeah the VKM was on top, on top of a heap of crap a everyone was watching WCW for 84 weeks in a row. Scott said he wasn’t medically cleared for a match but he could kick their asses with no permission needed. During the fighting Devon spit on a LAX flag and that brought out LAX to defend their flags and it looked liked the Steiner’s.



(3) No DQ match, “the Phenomenal” AJ Styles defeated Abyss.

This rivalry goes back to the weekly PPV days in Nashville where they tore down the Asylum even as they held the NWA World Tag Team championships. This was probably the bloodiest match in their rivalry. Styles hit a slingshot shoulder tackle and we were off and brawling. Abyss fought back with a running butt to the face in the corner. Abyss went to press slam Styles too the fans but Styles slid off only to be see Styles go over the ropes to the floor. Styles hit Abyss in the head wit ha chair and climbed into the fans, hitting a sort of springboard forearm from the seats. Abyss went back to the ring as Abyss tossed a chair in for some fun as he put the chair in between the buckles. Styles countered out of Shock Treatment but even after moves couldn’t avoid the chair in the corner. Abyss hit Shock Treatment for two and signaled for Doomsday. But Styles countered out of the Black Hole Slam and hit the Pele’. Styles went for a springboard move but Abyss caught him and hit the chokeslam for two as Tomko came out to ringside. Abyss hit the Black Hole Slam but Tomko broke up the pin. But the lights went down and up with Sting in the ring attacking Tomko. Abyss went under the ring and when he went for the bag of goodies he was dragged under ring. This left Sting alone to be attacked by Styles, Tomko and Robert Roode who joined the festivities. Abyss finally came out from under the ring a bloody mess. Christian Cage and his black shirt security appeared on the rampway and Cage grabbed the bag of broken glass, spreading it in the ring. But instead of Abyss, Tomko chokeslammed Sting into the glass. Styles got another bag from under the ring and it was thumb tacks spread on top of the glass. Tomko hit Abyss with the double chokeslam and Styles won via pinfall. Jeremy Borash came out to film more TNA Today stuff talking to Styles, Cage, Tomko and Roode. The TNA medical trainer had to come out and check on Sting & Abyss before he would let them go to the locker room for treatment.



Matches filmed for TNA Xplosion and TNA Today on the internet:



(1) Jerry Lynn defeated Basham via countout.



(2) Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & “the Future” Chris Sabin) defeated “the Guru” Sonjay Dutt & Petey Williams when Sabin countered out of the Canadian Destroyer, allowing Shelley to hit a top rope boot to Williams’ head setting up the Cradle Shock.



(3) “Black Machismo” Jay Lethal & “Showtime” Eric Young defeated Serotonin members Havok & Martyr when Young hit both men with a DVD and Lethal hit his Macho Man elbow drop.



Guesses and Official Matches for Hard Justice 2007:

(official) In a “winner takes all” match, TNA World/IWGP Heavyweight champion vs. World X Division/World Tag Team champion Samoa Joe

(Guess) Team 3D (Ray & Devon) vs Rick & Scott Steiner vs. Voodoo Kin Mafia (Kip & BG James w/Roxxie Laveaux) vs. Latin American Xchange (“Notorious 187” Homicide & Hotstuff Hernandez) or an 8 man match of some kind

Live TNA Victory Road PPV Notes: Returns, Debuts & A 3 Title Main Event

Please credit Alan J. Wojcik of http://alanwojcik.com if used, thank you.

These are live notes from the TNA Wrestling Victory Road 2007 PPV where someone will walk out of the main event with two championship belts. Jeff Jarrett was in attendance and it was great to see him with a smile on his face. As was Fighting Spirit Pro Wrestling star George Rodriguez and “M-Dogg 20” Matt Cross.



For the Impact Zone fans only, they saw Serotonin members Havok & Martyr defeat Akira Reijin & Gote (apologies on the misspelling of the New Japan names.)



(1) In an Ultimate X gauntlet match to name a new #1 contender, “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels defeated Frankie “the Future” Kazarian, “Prime Time” Elix Skipper, Puma, Black Machismo” Jay Lethal, “the Guru” Sonjay Dutt, “Notorious 187” Homicide, Shark Boy, Senshi and Petey Williams.

If you need any additional reason to buy this PPV on replay this match is the reason. With so much action going on, it is hard to make a coherent recap. Penzer said the rules were 2 matches in one: it opened as battle royal gauntlet with a new person every minute. They can be eliminated battle royal style. When all 10 enter the Ultimate X match begins. The order of entry in the gauntlet and who eliminated them: (1) Daniels (2) Jay Lethal (3) Puma (eliminated by Williams) (4) Homicide (5) Sonjay Dutt (eliminated by Skipper) (6) Petey Williams (eliminated by Homicide) (7) Shark Boy (eliminated by Skipper) (8)Elix Skipper (9)Frankie Kazarian (10) Senshi. The move of the match saw Kazarian bring Daniels off the X with an Acecrusher to the mat below. He was followed by a five person tower of doom. Kazarian and Skipper fought onto the top of the monkey bar like apparatus but fell down as they tried to get the X. Kazarian fought with Homicide on the top corner and Kazarian hit I think the Wave of the Future or Flux Capacitor. But as everyone fought below, Daniels used his arms & legs to bring down the X and with Daniels and Senshi, they reformed the dreaded XXX.



As the Ultimate X structure was taken down, Jeremy Borash spoke to Team 3D who seemed at odds over who was going to pin Kurt Angle to become TNA World Heavyweight champion or Samoa Joe to become X Division champion. Leticia Cline spoke to Samoa Joe about his chances considering his rivalry with Angle. He pretty much said Angle was in trouble. Leticia Cline spoke to VKM about who was their surprise against Christy Hemme.



(2) Voodoo Kin Mafia (Kip & BG James w/ Roxie LaVoe) defeated Basham & Damaja (w/Christy Hemme & Lance Hoyt).

This was a rematch from the previous two PPV’s and the extra addition was Hoyt being on the other side of the ring from VKM and Roxie LaVoe. Ms. LaVoe’s entry was not well received by the Pit people. Like the previous encounters, this was a hard hitting power based bout. VKM controlled it until Hoyt tripped up Kip and it distracted him long enough that Hemme slid into slap Kip but LaVoe joined her. Referee Earl Hebner told LaVoe to get out. But as that went on in the ring, Hoyt took BG to the floor and tossed him into the barricades. Basham/Damaja took over on BG for a while but he tagged out to a frustrated Kip who cleaned house. With the referee busy Hoyt tossed a chair in the ring and Kip picked it up. But Hoyt came in and kicked the chair into his face, tossing Damaja on top but not getting the win. As Hebner put things in order, BG came in and hit Damaja with the chair and the match ended. Afterwards LaVoe got her hands on Hemme and the fans rejoiced.



Jeremy Borash spoke to TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle about his role in the main event. Needles to say Angle’s confidence oozed all over the place. A video recap of the Storm-Rhino alcohol induced feud was recapped.



(3) “Tennessee Cowboy” James Storm (w/Jacqueline Moore) defeated “War Machine” Rhino.

Before the opening bell Rudy Charles evicted Ms. Moore from ringside. As Storm argued with Rudy, Rhino jumped him from behind and beat him around the ring and into the fans. Rhino used everything he could grab as a weapon including bottles and the Impact Zone walls. When the action came back to ringside, Storm got in some punches to the ribs. Finally Rudy rang the bell to officially begin the match and the Rhino butt kicking contest continued until Storm tossed Rhino from the top rope to the floor. Storm brought Rhino back to the ring where the trash talking began as the kicks were delivered to the ribs. Storm took Rhino to the mat with a rear chinlock. But rhino fought up to his feet so Storm used the rope momentum to toss Rhino out again. Storm tossed Rhino back in the ring but got two. Storm went back to the rear chinlock and Rhino fought out again. But this time Rhino hit two clotheslines and a corner spear. Storm stopped the momentum again and got two. Storm slid to the floor and got his trusty beer bottle but Charles talked him out of using it. Storm went up top but Rhino caught him and hit a superplex for two. Rhino went for a running forearm but hit Rudy Charles instead of Storm. Storm went for a superkick but Rhino caught him and hit a belly to belly suplex. This usually sets up the GORE but instead it set up Storm shattering the bottle on Rhino’s head. Charles counted the pin and Storm tied up Rhino as Ms. Moore brought down a mini-keg to shoot into Rhino’s face. Some Polaroids were taken for posterity sake as Storm also laid in the chair shots to the helpless Rhino’s head.



Leticia Cline talked to Jerry Lynn & Mr. Bob Backlund about their match with the Motor City Machine Guns.



(4) Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley & “the Future” Chris Sabin w/ Kevin Nash) defeated Jerry Lynn & Mr. Bob Backlund.

Sabin and Backlund were going to begin the match when Backlund bailed to the floor for some reason, only to return and lock up with the former X Division champion. Sabin locked in a full Nelson but Backlund fought out of it and reversed it. Sabin went to the ropes for salvation and both men tagged out.

Shelley and Lynn traded armdrags but Lynn got control, even as Shelley tagged Sabin back in. the Guns had some miscommunication but that ended when Shelley hit Lynn with an STO. The Guns took turns beating up Lynn and posing for the cameras while Nash called out things for them to use on Lynn. Shelley took off his belt and tossed it on the mat so the referee wouldn’t see the tag out to Backlund and it worked like a charm. Backlund came in and went bezerk on the Guns. But as Andrew Thomas put Backlund in his corner, Nash came in and kicked Lynn in the face. This set up the Guns and a series of kicks to Lynn’s head.



Jeremy Borash followed Kurt Angle backstage as he was looking for backup. They ran into Jay Lethal who went all “Macho Man” on Angle’s request to watch his back. Angle grew frustrated trying to understand the Machismo Lethal was spurting out and tossed Lethal all over the restroom. We saw a video package reminding people how we got to this mixed tag team match.



(5) “Showtime” Eric Young & Gail Kim defeated Robert Roode & Ms. Brooks.

Roode &Young picked up where they left off at Slammiversary, fast paced action with Kim & Brooks joining. Roode bailed to the floor and young followed with a tope. Brooks went to check on her man when Kim followed with a tope of her own. Young’s in ring momentum was killed by Brooks who tripped him up and dragged him crotch first into the nearest ring post. Roode & Brooks tried to wear down young but they didn’t get the job done as he tagged out to Kim who hit both of them with huricuranas. All four got involved and Kim hit Brooks with a missile dropkick. Roode save her from a pin but dropped an elbow on Brooks. Young sent Roode to the floor and Kim pinned Brooks. After the match Rood threw a fit, tossing the ring steps and blamed Brooks for the loss. As Roode told Brooks to hit the bricks Eric Young snuck in the ring and pulled down Roode’s tights, showing us all how rude Bobby Roode is.



Jeremy Borash spoke to “The Instant Classic” Christian Cage, “Phenomenal” AJ Styles and Tomko about their matches. They were interrupted by Kurt Angle who tried to make a deal with Cage and friends. They declined and left, as “the Guru” Sonjay Dutt came asking for donations to a charity. Angle decided to donate by hitting Dutt in the head with his own tambourine.



“Wildcat” Chris Harris spoke about his five year journey in TNA Wrestling and breaking the glass ceiling tonight against Christian Cage. The package was interrupted by Cage boasting about his own background in TNA.



(6) “The Instant Classic” Christian Cage defeated “Wildcat” Chris Harris.

Cage seemed to overlook the past of Harris, the multi-time World Tag Team champion and his part in high profile matches in his tenure in TNA. Harris went to work on Cage with kicks and a suplex that lasted about 20 seconds before Harris dropped Cage. Cage bailed to the floor so Harris followed out and the two fought until Harris backdropped Cage on the rampway. Back in the ring Cage dragged Harris to a corner and drove his crotch into the post. Cage went to the second rope and hit a European forearm to the jaw for two. Cage locked in an abdominal stretch but Harris refused to submit. Cage released the hold and tossed Harris to the floor. Cage went to use a chair but Rudy Charles took the chair away. Harris tossed Cage into he ring steps but when the action came back to the ring Cage took over. That stopped when Cage slapped Harris and it made him mad. Harris hit a series of moves but Cage tossed him to the floor, only to see Harris go up top and hit a bodyblock for two. Cage went for a pin with his feet on the topes but Harris kicked out. Cage blocked a superplex and hit a sitout facebuster for two. Harris got to his feet and his Catatonic was blocked as was the Unprettier which Harris reversed into an Unprettier of his own. Cage went for a move but hit with a spear for two. Cage floated over and Harris speared the ring post. Cage hit the Unprettier but Harris kicked out. The top buckle got split open and Cage went to toss Harris into it but Cage hit it and was hit by a full nelson slam for two. As Cage went to win the match, DUSTIN RHODES appeared on the rampway. With Cage in shock Harris rolled up Cage for two and Cage got to his feet, signaling for Tomko. Harris went for the Catatonic; Rhodes used Harris’ own handcuffs to the back to allow Cage to win via pinfall.



After a video package, Jeremy Borash spoke to Sting & Abyss about their match.



(7) Sting & Abyss defeated “Phenomenal” AJ Styles and Tomko.

These four men just don’t like each other and it showed throughout the match. Abyss and Styles started out and it was like old times, Styles trying to rock Abyss with punches and those punches having zero effect. Abyss hit a backbreaker but Styles got away and tagged in Tomko who showed last month in Nashville he isn’t afraid of Abyss. They went head to head with punches until Sting tagged in. Styles & Tomko went to double splash Sting but Tomko ended up getting splashed and then both men were hit with Stinger Splashes before Abyss tagged back in. Abyss caught Styles in mid air and went for the Styles Clash but Tomko kicked him in the face. The duo fought on the floor and back to the ring where Tomko kept control of the bout. Styles & Tomko had some good chemistry as they beat down Abyss but it didn’t last long and the monster tagged out to Sting who sent Tomko to the floor where abyss met him. Sting and Styles fought as Abyss went up top but Styles did or harm than good as he dropkicked Abyss into Tomko. Styles and Sting soon followed with planchas of their own. Sting used a chair on Tomko and took Styles back to the ring going for the Scorpion Deathlock but Styles hit a Pele kick for two. Tomko tagged in and hit Sting with a throwaway slam for two. Styles tagged in and locked Sting in a chinlock, but as Sting got to his feet he was hit with a dropkick for two. Styles placed Sting on the top but his huricurana was blocked and Sting hit a move sending both men racing to their corners to tag out. Abyss became a one man wrecking crew and nearly won with a chokeslam but Styles saved Tomko. All four men got in and fought but Abyss hit Styles with Shock Treatment. Tomko came in and hit Abyss with a double arm chokeslam but Sting locked Tomko in the Scorpion Deathlock but Andrew Thomas was busy with Styles. Tomko tapped out but the referee missed it. But he didn’t miss Abyss hitting Tomko with the Black Hole Slam to win. Father James Mitchell came on rampway and told the winners there were debts to be collected and he was the man to do it.



The “Machines” promo package played before the main event. Before Angle hit the ring, he tried to talk Serotonin into aiding him. When they refused he kicked the crap out of them.



(8) TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle & World X Division champion Samoa Joe defeated World Tag Team champions Team 3D (Ray and Devon) when Samoa Joe pinned Ray to win the TNA World Tag Team titles.

After the introductions Joe and Devon stared down before locking up. Joe got an armlock but Devon got out with a forearm to the face but Joe fired back with one of his own. Joe dragged Devon to a corner and tagged in Angle but Devon fought off Angle. Ray tagged in and after being armdragged and waistlocked, backed Angle to a corner for some chops. But Angle hit a German Suplex and tagged in Joe who hit several punches to the jaw. Devon tagged back in but Joe hit a series of moves into the senton for two. Angle tagged back in and hit Devon with a snap suplex for two. Joe kept the offense going with a series of shots to Devon’s upper body. Angle and Joe made several tags but couldn’t get the pinfall even as they took shots at Ray. Devon stopped Angle’s offense with a slam but Ray stopped the pinfall from going down. He tagged in and hit Joe with a Rock Bottom but Devon stopped the pinfall from going down. Team 3D had a little argument and Ray left Devon in the ring. But he came back to help Devon double team Joe & Angle while calling for a truce. 3D went back to work dissecting Joe as Angle tried to aid his partner, but did more damage than aid. Somehow Joe survived this onslaught and hit Devon with a top rope knee to the face before tagging out to no one as Ray sent Angle to the floor. Joe avoided a 3D double team move and tagged in Angle who was on fire (Dan Patrick Style) but Devon saved Ray from the Olympic Slam. Devon went up top for the Wassup but Joe dropped him on the buckle and Angle hit a belly to belly for two. All kinds of moves were used on each other but Angle hit Devon with a moonsault for two. Ray called for the tables but Angle & Joe locked 3D in ankle locks. Ray got out and they hit Angle with a 3D but Rick Steiner came out and ended that pin attempt. As 3D looked for revenge on Rick, Scott Steiner attacked Ray with the lead pipe. Confusion ensued but Joe got the win and the tag titles. Guess we will find out on Impact who Samoa Joe will pick for a partner or if he will relinquish the belts.



After the PPV went off the air Team 3D said the reason they lost the titles was because of the fans, who they told could kiss their asses. Jeremy Borash interviewed Tenay & West for TNA Today.

TNA Wrestling offers Samoa Joe contract extension

Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Samoa Joe was recently offered a 3-year contract extension with TNA but has not signed it.

I don't know what that means beyond what is written. I don't know how long his deal has left and if he's open to staying. I think he'd be better off in the WWE now than he would've been back in 2005 when he chose TNA over the WWE.

Of course, if Vince McMahon hears of his dancing background...well then we've got a new Rikishi or something.

Complete Live Spoilers From TNA Impact Tapings

Please credit Alan J. Wojcik of http://alanwojcik.com if used, thanks.


These are the LIVE SPOILERS leading into the TNA Wrestling Victory Road PPV. With the summer brings tourists who want to experience the live show and it was legit overflow today. So far locked into the main event of the PPV are World X Division champion Samoa Joe and TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle. Tonight we see if Team 3D can retain their World Tag Team titles to make the main event. No backstage promos or segments were shown to the live audience. We didn’t see Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, Rhino, Basham, Damaja or “Wildcat” Chris Harris in action.



Hour one notes:



Mike Tenay and Don West spoke to the home fans probably about the three team match with the winner advancing to the PPV.



(1) World Tag Team champions Team 3D (Ray & Devon) defeated Latin American Xchange (“Notorious 187” Homicide & Hotstuff Hernandez) and “Phenomenal” AJ Styles/ “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels.

Yes it looks like Styles/Daniels reunited for this match, even though I seem to remember them saying they would never do it again. This was traditional tag as opposed to three men in the same time. The challengers attacked the champions at the bell but things went the other way as it became every team for themselves as 3D were sent to the floor and LAX got control of the match. Styles saved Daniels from the Border Toss but Homicide was not able to save Hernandez from a double team move. Ray missed a fat boy senton to Homicide but Homicide’s top rope move backfired as Ray got to his feet. Homicide recovered and took Ray to the mat with a chinlock. Some point during this match it looked like some ring boards broke from the impact of several 300 pounders. Hernandez tagged in to deliver more punishment as Styles/Daniels broke up any pin attempt. This went on for several minutes and probably through a commercial break. Daniels made a blind tag into the match and went to work on Ray. Somehow Ray got his ring awareness, hit Daniels with the Bubba Bomb and tagged out to Devon who took on 4 men at one time. All kinds of craziness ensued as 3D hit Homicide with the Wassup. Daniels went to the corner but got picked up by Ray as 3D hit the Road Warrior clothesline for two. Styles countered out of the Cop Killa and hit the Pele kick, followed by a frog splash/moonsault but got two. Hernandez hit Styles with the Border Toss but Devon pulled the referee to the floor. Hernandez and Ray hit top rope planchas onto the wrestlers below. Daniels fought off Devon’s power bomb and hit an STO but his attempted Angel’s Wings was blocked and he fell to the 3D.



Before the second match TNA Management’s Jim Cornette joined Tenay and West for commentary. Before anything else happened “Instant Classic” Christian Cage, Tomko and a old school megaphone interrupted the proceedings. Cage told Cornette a laundry list of things about his career before running down “Wildcat” Chris Harris’ track record. Cornette got a real microphone and told him who exactly Chris Harris is, the guy who is using Cage’s head to shatter the glass ceiling in TNA. Cornette also mentioned Abyss was still hunting for Cage and Tomko. Cage said he wasn’t afraid of Abyss, so of course Abyss’ ring music played which made Cage/Tomko run for the nearest exit sign.



(2) In a TNA Knockouts match, Gail Kim defeated Ms. Brooks and “the Pride of Tennessee” Jacqueline Moore.

There was enough hatred between these ladies to fill Madison Square Garden. Moore and Brooks fought over who was going to beat up Kim, so they beat each other up as Kim recovered. Brooks kneed Kim in the back and sent her to the floor but Kim grabbed Brooks’ legs and she came outside. Moore went to baseball slide both ladies but only got Brooks. Kim used this opening to hit both ladies with a top rope plancha. The action came back to the ring but Kim got hit with a double team move. Both ladies laid in the kicks to the head and chest as Kim tired to fight them off when they both grabbed a leg for a half Boston Crab. But Moore and Brooks began trading slaps to the face. Both let go of the hold and went up top but Kim stopped Brooks and hit a huricurana. Moore went to pin Kim but Brooks hit a clothesline. Kim recovered and hit both ladies with headlock/head scissor takeover. Brooks went to pin Kim but Kim countered and Brooks ended up on the floor. Moore snuck up from behind to roll up Kim but Kim used her momentum to roll through and get the pin. This immediately led to Brook and Moore jumping Kim. Eric Young came out to save his new friend but Robert Roode came out to jump Young.



TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle made his way into the Impact Zone dressed like a millionaire. Angle told the fans the Victory Road main event would be partnered up in an eight man match next week. He pronounced tonight “Kurt Angle Night” and called the promotion “Total Nonstop Angle.” Next he verbally ripped his Victory Road partner, his opponents and proclaimed he brought SexyBack when Team 3D interrupted his soliloquy. Ray said if Angle brought SexyBack then he was the next centerfold for Playgirl magazine. 3D tried to convince everyone was working to make TNA the best promotion in the world. Insults were traded and Devon leveled Angle as Ray called for some lumber. To the shock of all Samoa Joe came out and attacked Team 3D but when Team 3D were gone, Angle hit Joe with the Olympic Slam into the folding table 3D set up.



Hour two notes:



(1) Abyss defeated Lance Hoyt (w/Christy Hemme)

These two are not strangers and Hemme could be the deciding element since Father James Mitchell was not with Abyss. Hoyt went for a move but ran right into Abyss’ boot and the action went to the floor where Abyss tossed Hoyt into the guard rails. Abyss tossed Hoyt back to the ring and got a folding chair, but Hoyt attacked when Abyss came back in. Abyss fought back and hit the corner butt splash. However Abyss’ second rope splash only hit the canvas. Hoyt took over with right hand punches to the face and hit a second rope legdrop for two. Hoyt went for but missed a moonsault as Abyss got to his feet and hit several clotheslines followed by a choke slam for two. Hemme got the referee’s attention as Abyss went to hit Hoyt with the chair. Hoyt blocked it and went up top but Abyss got the chair and threw it right into Hoyt’s face. Hoyt recovered and went for the boot to the face but when he began to run at Abyss, Abyss saw it and hit the Black Hole Slam. Abyss wasn’t done as he found a bag of broken pieces of glass and dumped them in the ring as VKM came out to fight Hoyt to the locker room. Hemme was all alone with Abyss when Tomko and AJ Styles hit the ring. The lights went down and up with Sting coming out to aid Abyss. Sting handed Abyss the baseball bat. Sting said he and Abyss would face Tomko and Styles on Sunday. To the shock of everyone Abyss spoke on the mic. He said Sunday would be Doomsday!!



As the broken glass was cleaned up Tenay and West spoke to the home viewers about the main event of the show.



(2) Serotonin members Kaz vs. Martyr and Havok.

According to Penzer, the winner is the final qualifier to an Ultimate X match at Victory Road. Early on this was a handicap match with Kaz fighting for his life for several minutes. But nothing Martyr and Havok did led to a pin or submission. Kaz dumped Havok to the floor as Martyr went for the superkick but Kaz saw it and heel tripped Martyr and rolled over into a pin. Kaz may have won the match but Raven came out and with the help of Havok & Martyr, used their kendo sticks to beat Kaz into submission.



Before the main event Tenay and West talked to the home viewers again, possibly running down the PPV lineup.



(3) TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle, World X Division champion Samoa Joe and World Tag Team champions Team 3D (Ray and Devon) defeated “Instant Classic” Christian Cage, “Phenomenal” AJ Styles, Tomko and Robert Roode (w/Ms. Brooks)

According to announcer Dave Penzer this is the first time in TNA history the three championships were on the same side in a match. The title holders came out separate and argued the whole match while their opponents came out as a group. Roode and Devon started out with some brawling but worked their way into wrestling as Devon took over. Roode tagged out to Cage who was reluctant to enter so Devon pulled him in the ring before tagging out to Ray who held Cage for eternity before hitting a suplex. Joe tagged in and unleashed several moves on Cage but got two for his effort. Cage finally tagged out to Tomko who traded forearm shots with Joe but couldn’t avoid an enziguri. Roode tagged back in and Joe went back to work before slapping Devon into the match. While Ray, Joe and Angle argued, Roode hit Devon with a spinebuster and the tide went to the other side of the ring. Roode, Styles, Cage and Tomko took turns beating down Devon but didn’t get the pin. He survived long enough to tag out to Joe as Tomko tagged out. Joe hit Styles with a powerslam and locked in an STF but Styles friends jumped in. Angle remained on the floor as the fighting went all over. Ray countered out of the Unprettier and Cage got hit with the Road Warrior clothesline and then 3D hit Roode with the 3D. Joe grabbed Styles and sent him into Cage who was climbing the top rope. Joe went for the Muscle buster but Angle came in, tripped up Joe and pinned Styles. As Angle split, Team 3D faced off with Samoa Joe in the ring.



Matches taped for TNA Xplosion/TNA Today:



(1) “Tennessee Cowboy” James Storm (w/“the Pride of Tennessee” Jacqueline Moore) defeated Senshi. Moore slid the beer bottle in and the referee picked it up. Senshi saw this and when he turned around he got hit with a Superkick.



(2) “Black Machismo” Jay Lethal defeated Petey Williams with the top rope elbow drop. Before the match “the Guru” Sonjay Dutt came out and blessed the ring, the fans, Williams and the announce booth.



Announced Victory Road matches:

TNA/IWGP Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle & World X Division champion Samoa Joe vs. World Tag Team champions Team 3D (Ray and Devon)

“The Instant Classic” Christian Cage vs. “Wildcat” Chris Harris

“Tennessee Cowboy” James Storm vs. “War Machine” Rhino

In an Ultimate X match to name a new #1 contender Kaz vs. I have no idea because TNA’s site has no information.

Casey's Commentary: TNA iMPACT 06/28/2007

Welcome to TNA iMPACT coverage. Lets see if I can get through this, I failed with ECW on Tuesday.

Show opens with a video recap of Cornette explaining the Victory Road main event from last week.

We open with West and Tenay talking about tonight's world title match. A video airs with comments from Angle, Rhino and Christian.

Tale of the tape, followed by the entrences of all the participants.

We even get the UFC style intros...

Samoa Joe gets an intro and I believe he's going to do commentary. Nice of TNA to let him be close to the ring for his run-in.

Instead of commentating...Joe decides to comment to Angle by beating him up.

Match has not officially started, so we go to a...

Commercial Break!!!
I liked the way they hyped up the match, made it seem special. The rest of my commentary for the show is behind the cut.



Match 1: Rhino Vs. Christian Cage Vs. Kurt Angle - TNA Championship

There's not a lot happening I feel like writing about.

TNA is doing a deal where you can vote for 3D's opponents on TNA mobile.

1. LAX
   
2. AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels
   
3. The Naturals

Yeah, I'm voting for the Naturals...don't know about you. The top 2 teams get the shot.

They are talking about how later in this show there will be an X-division showcase match including Eric Young. Its smart...you want to make it seem like other stuff is planned even if it isn't, so as to not telegraph finishes and match length.

Commercial Break.
Match is ok, but I wouldn't call it anything special at this point.

A Victory Road commercial airs or something.

We're back and I apologize for this recap. I've got 2 people here and it is hard for me to focus on what's hapening. Add to that, the fact that its just a standard match and I do my best work talking wacky angles and stuff...and this just isn't what I wanted to be.

Oh, yeah, somewhere in here Christian was attacked by Abyss. I apologize for not knowing where, I'm just finding it hard to focus.

Tomko and Styles go outside where Abyss and christian were fighting and they attack Abyss while Rhino and Angle wrestle in the ring.

Then, we go to another...commercial Break!!!

We're back and Rhino gores Angle through a table in the ring, just a few seconds later.

Christian has a nearfall...but Harris brings him out of the ring.

Tomko and Styles come in the building to take Harris off of Christian.

I expect more people to interfere...and right on Cue, Abyss re-enters the picture.

Here comes Sting to help Abyss and it is the parade of TNA stars~!

Commercial Break!!!

Back from the break and we're back with people fighting all over the place. Tomko is bloody, Sting is fighting Styles...there's about 600 guys out here.

A bunch of stuff is happening now but amazingly, its all in the ring involving the 3 wrestlers...but then again, they just showed Storm and Tomko spitting beer so maybe not.

Angle hits the Olympic slam, and gets the pin.

Winner: Kurt Angle

My Thoughts: Hard to really say, my mind is just not in this.

Interesting experiment though and I commend them for that.

Some news and notes from TNA

I've decided I've had enough of the Benoit coverage for now, but this is a Combat Sports blog and as hard as it is to believe other stuff is happening in Wrestling, MMA and boxing.

TNA has a tease for Team 3D's opponents on next Thursday's iMPACt. One of the 2 teams is speculated to be LAX...and a title switch would not shock me.

Christian Cage was awesome on TNA today

Christian and Rhino offer comment on their big title match

I'll be back with MMA news in awhile.
