He is also very excited about taking part of the Lethal Lottery Parade of Champions Match later tonight, because if they pin The British Invasion, this could guarantee them a title shot against the TNA Tag Champs before the PPV. And then, if they win the titles, they'll gladly put them on the line against The Kliq, which will be an even bigger incentive to end The Kliq's career.

Cyrus says that normally, Roode would have to defend his title at Hard Justice but given the fact that he is already defending the strap for a 2nd time in a week, he won't obligate him to defend it at Hard Justice. And since the contract had been signed for a Rhino vs D'Angelo Dinero match at the PPV, he cannot breach the contract since he doesn't want any lawsuits. However, after what went down last Monday on Xplosion with The Amazing Red and Rhino, Cyrus is a fair man and wants to allow Red to get some measure of revenge.

Jarrett says that unfortunately, they weren't able to do so. Before Jarrett can finish his sentence, Jimmy Hart and DETONATORS come to the ring. “The Mouth of the South” gloats about how he knew that nobody would be stupid enough to take sides against his DETONATORS. Jimmy Hart says he guesses now that the match at Hard Justice is off. Matt Morgan says if that's the case, then perhaps, they should settle this right here, right now. Jeff Jarrett and Matt Morgan charge DETONATORS and the brawl spills outside the ring with Jarrett and Rick Fuller fighting with each other while Morgan and Giant Bernard do the same. Security and TNA officials are sent to the ringside area to break the brawl when suddenly, Awesome Kong's music starts on the PA system.

Taz says that Tara hasn't been herself lately and is obsessed with finding out who stole her title from her. Tara comes out and says that she finally had a breakthrough and knows who is The Masked Knockout. Tara asks Traci Brooks to come to the ring. Tara says that she should've suspected Traci Brooks first but she thought it would've been too obvious since Tara gave her a beatdown the night she lost her title so wrestling under a mask would be an easy yet cowardly way to win the title and get revenge. Traci says that although she would've loved to beat Tara for her title, she isn't The Masked Knockout. Tara calls Traci a liar since ODB told her she saw her with a mask similar to The Masked Knockout's. Traci responds that Tara is obviously an idiot since ODB was drunk as usual and she just lead Tara on. Tara doesn't wanna hear it and says if Traci doesn't want to confess, she will beat the answer she wants out of her. Tara officially challenges Traci to a match this Sunday at Hard Justice. If Tara wins, Traci must pass a lie detector test to prove that she's The Masked Knockout. Traci accepts but says Tara is wasting her time and she'll make her look like a fool this Sunday.

Results for Impact 4/15 (from Vancouver, WA)

-After the opening credits, Mike Tenay and Taz welcome viewers from Vancouver, WA for the last Impact before Hard Justice this Sunday. They run down the card for tonight, including the Steel Cage Match for the World Television Championship as Mark Briscoe will challenge Jay Lethal for the title. Taz recalls the incredible Ladder Match that Mark's brother, Jay, had with Lethal in his debut match and hopes that the Cage Match will measure up with the Ladder Match. Mike Tenay mentions that The World Elite has been barred from ringside and will only face off with Lethal Consequences this Sunday for their match. Tenay also recaps last Monday's event with D'Angelo Dinero getting the best of Rhino as he was disguised as Sting for their match. On cue, D'Angelo Dinero's music starts and out comes The Pope to a great ovation. Dinero tells the fans he's hyped up for this Sunday and he's hoping that he and The Amazing Red will give a great performance in that Triple Threat Match. As for the little charade last Monday, Dinero says he did what he had to do to send a message to Rhino; that Rhino won't get to bully everyone and that no War Machine is invincible. That brings out Spike TV executive Cyrus. Cyrus isn't too happy about Dinero's antics on Xplosion. Dinero tells Cyrus that Rhino brought it to himself and next time, he might think twice before beating up people. Cyrus tells Dinero that he'll always be one step ahead of him. But Dinero is right about one thing: one war machine isn't invincible, nor is it unstoppable. But it makes it much harder for anyone else to stop an army of war machines. Cyrus says it's time for him to build an army to his image: flawless, cold and calculated. Dinero tells Cyrus to bring it; he'll take on everybody. At that moment, from the crowd comes Gran Akuma, who slides in the ring and Pearl Harbors D'Angelo Dinero with a chair shot. Cyrus gives Akuma the signal and he delivers the Rubik's Cube on Dinero. Cyrus tells the fans that an army can be built with people of all sizes but programmed with one single mind. Cyrus officially introduces TNA to his new pet project, Gran Akuma. Cyrus and Akuma shake hands and leave the ring together.

-After the break, replay of Gran Akuma's attack on D'Angelo Dinero. Mike Tenay and Taz discuss the situation and Taz says that Cyrus seems to be serious with this army thing. We now go in the back with Cyrus, Rhino and Gran Akuma all congratulating each other. The door opens and Cyrus sees former WWE wrestler Jesse Dalton walking in his office. Cyrus says he's glad to see the son of the legendary Freebird Terry “Bam Bam” Gordy joining TNA. Gordy says that he's now going by Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy and wants to perpetuate the Freebird tradition, in memory of his late father. Gordy says he'd very much like to join Cyrus' army, since like an army is a band of brothers, this is what the Fabulous Freebirds were all about. Cyrus tells Gordy that as much as he would like to say yes to Gordy, he thinks he has to prove his worth to Cyrus first. If Gordy can impress Cyrus, he'll consider inviting him to join his army. Cyrus and Gordy are interrupted by Tara, who storms in the room, upset that she has to team with The Masked Knockout AND Traci Brooks tonight. Tara asks Cyrus if he knows something she doesn't. Cyrus says that the only thing he can say for sure is that Traci Brooks isn't The Masked Knockout, but that's all he knows. Tara says that she doesn't believe a word of what Cyrus just said and she's gonna show the world that Traci is the Masked Knockout. Tara walks out the door and is now face-to-face with Traci Brooks. Traci slaps Tara and a catfight ensues, under the amused eyes of Rhino, Gran Akuma and Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy. Tara and Traci are rolling over the floor in the hallway but Tara stops rolling at the feet of someone. Tara raises her head and it's The Masked Knockout. Tara is in shock as The Masked Knockout punts Tara's head, knocking her out cold. The Masked Knockout helps Traci getting up and Traci bends over Tara telling her “See, I told you I wasn't The Masked Knockout!” Traci and The Masked Knockout leave together.

-Jeremy Borash is in the back with Jeff Jarrett, Matt Morgan and Awesome Kong. JB recaps what happened on Xplosion when Jarrett and Morgan revealed Kong as their partner. Jarrett tells JB that they couldn't have chosen a better partner than Kong to take care of Jimmy Hart. Then, they'll be able to take care of DETONATORS without worrying about Jimmy Hart causing trouble. Morgan says it's gonna be the best time he'll ever had this Sunday when they'll see Kong murder Jimmy Hart in the middle of the ring. Meanwhile, Jarrett says they'll do some scouting tonight and go see the Rick Fuller/Desmond Wolfe match next.

-Rick Fuller (w/Jimmy Hart) and Desmond Wolfe fight to a double countout. Jeff Jarrett and Matt Morgan were at commentary for the match. Jimmy Hart was wearing a neck brace after being on the receiving end of an Awesome Bomb on Monday. At the end of the match, Awesome Kong's music started and Jimmy Hart freaked out. Hart ran away backstage with Rick Fuller trying to catch up with him. While the referee was administering the 10-count, Team 3D came from the crowd and 3Ded Desmond Wolfe on the floor, causing the double countout. Mick Foley came out to attack Team 3D but Team 3D also gave Foley the 3D treatment.

-Carol Midori (w/Christopher Daniels) beat Roxxi

-Recap of what happened earlier tonight in the opening moments of the broadcast when Gran Akuma attacked D'Angelo Dinero in the ring. JB asks Gran Akuma why he joined forces with Cyrus. Akuma answers that for him, things are simple; he has a job to do and has to do whatever it takes to get what he wants. Cyrus gave him the task to soften up D'Angelo Dinero for Rhino and that's what he did. Akuma says he might not be the biggest soldier but he'll be the most loyal to Cyrus. Akuma promises he won't disappoint Cyrus and will make sure Rhino will be victorious this Sunday. Cyrus says he heard a few moments ago that D'Angelo Dinero wants a piece of Gran Akuma later tonight. All he has to do is come to the ring at the end of the show and he'll get him.

-Tenay and Taz hype the 8-Knockout Tag Team Match still to come tonight and discuss the Tara/Traci/Masked Knockout situation. Then, we go to the back with JB and ODB. JB mentions that ODB pretty much caused all the commotion surrounding The Masked Knockout's identity. ODB says that an impaired girl has the right to be wrong and misinterpret stuff. But, of course, she lead on Tara because that was her way to get a little revenge on Tara for losing her title to her. As to the Masked Knockout's true identity, she says she knows just as much as anybody else, meaning she doesn't know who it is. But she loves to see Tara squirm so she'll enjoy the tag match, coming up next.

8-Knockout Tag Team Match: “The Future Legend” Alissa Flash & The Beautiful People (Angelina Love, Madison Rayne & Lacey Von Erich) beat TNA Knockouts Champion The Masked Knockout, Tara, Michiko Omukai & Traci Brooks after Tara deliberately hit Traci Brooks, allowing Lacey Von Erich to pin Traci.

-After a rundown of the card for Hard Justice, we're headed back to the ring where Cyrus, Rhino and Gran Akuma. Gran Akuma is wearing his Campeones de Parejas title belt that he holds in CHIKARA with Chuck Taylor as F.I.S.T. Cyrus says that tonight marked the first step of a great movement in TNA as he slowly will build an army to his image and program it to completely destroy everyone standing in his way. Cyrus says that it started a long time ago when Rhino was his “Rookie Monster” and dominated ECW. Another chapter was written at Against All Odds when they reunited and a 3rd chapter is being written with the addition of Gran Akuma. Earlier tonight, D'Angelo Dinero tried to prevent that 3rd chapter to be written but miserably failed. However, if he wants to try again, he's welcome. Cyrus asks D'Angelo Dinero to come out and Dinero shows up. Dinero stops outside the ring, seeing that Rhino and Gran Akuma are getting ready to fight. While Cyrus invites Dinero to fight, The Amazing Red runs through the crowd and climbs on the top turnbuckle. Dinero points at Red and Rhino turns around, welcomed by a Flying Hurricanrana. With Rhino being taken out, Dinero charges the ring and brawls with Gran Akuma. Cyrus hightails the crime scene as quick as he can and Akuma gains control of the brawl. Akuma takes off his Campeones de Parejas title belt and puts it down. Akuma goes for the Rubik's Cube but Dinero blocks it and low blows Akuma! Dinero takes the belt and smacks Akuma with it! Dinero and The Amazing Red are in the ring and Dinero tells Red to hit Code Red on Akuma but Rhino quickly pulls Gran Akuma outside the ring. The show finishes with D'Angelo Dinero and The Amazing Red having a verbal confronation with Rhino and Cyrus.

-TNA staff is now filling with a big couch and a table with beer, champagne, and all sorts of food as Beer Money is about to celebrate Robert Roode's World Heavyweight Championship victory. Beer Money's music starts and they come out with several ladies dressed for the occasion. Both Storm and Roode are wearing suits and Roode proudly wears the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist. Everybody gets in the ring as Storm asks the fans to applaud Robert Roode for his success. The crowd doesn't really approve some scattered cheers can be heard in the crowd. James Storm says that tonight is a very special night for Beer Money because Hard Justice marks the night that Beer Money becomes the most important thing going in TNA. After the night's done, everyone will now know that Beer Money are the top players in the company. Robert Roode takes the mic and says that if there were any doubters, than the title around his waist should shut up any critics. Roode says he has made a commitment to excellence since he entered TNA. As a matter of fact, it started well before that. It started the day he saw the late Curt Hennig wrestle as Mr. Perfect and stealing the show everywhere he wrestled. Roode says that he owes it to wrestlers like Curt Hennig, like Bret Hart and guys like Eddie Guerrero to follow their lead and become the best he can be....but he'll be better than them. Everybody can bank on that. James Storm says that now comes his big moment. James Storm takes us back to last year's Bound For Glory when Hulk Hogan debuted in TNA. He said he was the first one who dared stepping into his face and call him out. Storm also reminds us that he left Hogan with 37 stitches on his forehead after breaking a beer bottle on his skull. And Storm says that he got the biggest victory of his night at Turning Point the following month when he pinned Hulk Hogan for the 3 count. Now, Storm says the time has come to do what nobody has been able to do: put an end to Hulkamania and sent Hulk Hogan packing. James Storm invites Hogan to come to the ring. Hogan's music hits and the crowd goes wild as the Hulkster walks to the ring. Storm asks Hogan if this moment brings out bad memories for him. Hogan tells Storm to get this over with. Storm wants first for Hogan to congratulate Robert Roode for his TNA World Heavyweight Championship victory and shake his hand. Hogan doesn't seem to trust Storm but Roode extends his hand and promises Hogan he won't do anything. Hogan begrudgingly shakes Roode's hand. Storm says that now that it's done, they can go over a more important part. Storm wants Hogan to admit that he's a better wrestler than Hogan. Storm says that Hogan can't deny the fact that Storm pinned Hogan in November at Turning Point and that makes him better than him. Storm knows that Hogan can't stomach the fact that it happened but he now has to live with that. Storm honestly thought that Hogan would be smart enough to walk away from TNA after that night and never come back. But he decided instead to come back for more and now, Storm must put an end to Hulkamania. So, Storm wants to officially challenge Hogan to a match at Sacrifice next month! Hulk Hogan tells Storm he doesn't know how many beers he drank but he's completely delusional. Every Hulkamaniac in the arena knows that it's not true and Hulkamania will live forever, brother! Storm says that perhaps Hogan is afraid of facing Storm so he might just need to refresh his memory. James Storm takes a sip of beer and is about to spit it on Hogan but Hogan decks Storm with a right hand! Storm goes down and Hogan pummels Storm but Robert Roode quickly intervened and assaults Hogan. Beer Money double team Hogan and they set him up for the Drinking While Investing when Kurt Angle's music blasts the PA system. Crowd goes crazy as Kurt Angle charges the ring and cleans house, sending Beer Money flying on the outside. Kurt Angle helps Hogan to get up and Hogan tells Storm that he'll gladly accept his challenge for Sacrifice! Hogan passes the mic to Kurt Angle. Angle says that he knows his behaviour hasn't been quite normal in the past couple of weeks but he had to do what he had to do to get what he wanted. Angle had to renegotiate his contract but Cyrus was playing hardball with him so Angle had to play by Cyrus' rules a little bit. But now, Angle says he's done everything Cyrus wanted him to do and that means one thing: he now has what he wanted. Angle says that in his contract, if he had to do what Cyrus wanted him to do, Cyrus had to guarantee him a World Heavyweight Championship anytime Angle wanted. Angle tells Robert Roode to guess who's the new #1 contender: him, Kurt Angle! Crowd goes crazy as Robert Roode is flabbergasted. Angle says that it might not be Robert Roode that will walk into Sacrifice as the World Heavyweight Champion but it will be Kurt Angle who'll walk out of Sacrifice the new World Heavyweight Champion. It's Real....It's Damn Real! Crowd cheers as Hogan and Angle shake hands while Beer Money stand on the stage, puzzled.

Hernandez drags 6-Pac on top of the stage while Homicide handcuffs The Outsiders together. Hernandez then lifts up 6-Pac and throws 6-Pac down the stage, through a table with the Border Toss! Crowd chants “TNA! TNA! TNA!” as the show ends with LAX & Kazarian celebrating together.

-After the opening credits, we go straight to a special public workout with Hulk Hogan and TNA trainer Bobby Blaze. Mike Tenay and Taz welcome us to Xplosion as Hogan has decided to hold a public workout as he starts training for his match with James Storm in 1 month at Sacrifice. Hogan and Blaze trade basic moves but they are interrupted by Beer Money. Storm taunts Hogan, telling him he can do all kinds of workouts if he wants to, he still won't beat him. As a matter of fact, Storm plans to not train at all, sit around all day, drinking beer and he still will beat the hell out of Hogan. Storm tells Hogan to invite his son Nick, his daughter Brooke and his girlfriend Jennifer to attend Sacrifice so they can witness the end of the Immortal Hulk Hogan. Storm finishes by saying that he'll be done, he'll make Jennifer worth her while. Hogan is ready to chase Storm but he's held back by Bobby Blaze, who's able to calm him down.

-Backstage, D'Angelo Dinero is being checked up by TNA medical staff and is joined by Lauren, who asks him off the record how he's doing. Dinero admits he's banged up but he should be ready to go against Brutus Magnus tonight. At this moment, Gran Akuma, Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy and The British Invasion enter the medical room and tell Dinero that Cyrus got a message for him. They immediately jump on Dinero beating him up but Lauren is able to interject herself in front of Dinero, stopping the attack. Hulk Hogan is alerted by Lauren's screaming and enters the room, asking everyone what the hell happened. Akuma tells Hogan they were simply delivering a message from Cyrus. Hogan reminds them than Cyrus isn't here and he isn't the only one who can make matches; he can too. Since D'Angelo Dinero won't be cleared to wrestle, somebody will have to replace him against Brutus Magnus so Hogan decides it will be Gran Akuma. Akuma protests but Hogan tells him that he better shut up before he loses his job. Hogan throws Akuma, Gordy and The Brits out of the room as he and Lauren check on Dinero.

-After the break, the camera follows Gran Akuma and Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy in the arena as they are joined by Rhino. They tell Rhino they delivered Cyrus' message to Dinero. Rhino tells them they still have one more to do. Meanwhile, The Motor City Machine Guns' music starts as they're getting ready to go to the ring for a tag match. Rhino tells Akuma and Gordy to follow him. Camera goes back to the arena as The Guns come out for their match but they're immediately ambushed by Rhino, Gran Akuma & Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy. They drag the Guns to the ring and they beat them mercilessly. Rhino sends Chris Sabin flying in the ring post and Sabin is busted wide open. Gordy is pummeling Sabin's forehead as the blood keeps pouring. Meanwhile, Akuma restrains Alex Shelley as Rhino pummels Shelley's forehead with a chain wrapped around his fist. Shelley is also cut open. Rhino gives Akuma the signal and Akuma lifts up Shelley. Rhino then Gores Shelley through the barricade. The Motor City Machine Guns are left laying in a puddle of their own blood. Rhino takes the mic and tells The Guns that Cyrus taught him one important thing in his career: if you can't beat them, join them. Rhino suggests that the Guns think about that and maybe they can take a big decision at the end of the show...

-Daffney beat Carol Midori

-TNA World Tag Team Champion Brutus Magnus beat Gran Akuma

-Hernandez vs Brother Ray ends in a no-contest after Kevin Nash interrupts the match, escorted by police officers.

-Jay Briscoe beat TNA World Tag Team Champion Doug Williams with the Jay Driller

-Rhino, Gran Akuma & Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy are back in the ring, and they're asking The Motor City Machine Guns if they're pondering the possibility of taking their offer. Rhino asks The Guns to come out. Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin come out, wearing bandages on their forehead and climb gingerly in the ring. Rhino says that it shouldn't have been like this. Rhino actually had nothing against the Guns until Alex Shelley didn't mind his own business. Rhino tells the Guns that however, Cyrus is willing to forget about that if the Guns accepted to join forces with them in Cyrus' army. Rhino knows how tough the Guns are since they grew up in Detroit, just like him and Cyrus would definitely value their presence within his army. Chris Sabin says that ever since they've been in TNA, he and Alex Shelley had to deal with people like Cyrus, bossing wrestlers backstage around, thinking they're God. The Guns have never kissed anybody's asses and they are where they are because they stayed true to themselves, even if it meant pissing off management. Alex Shelley adds that he won't give Cyrus or Rhino the satisfaction of admitting defeat by joining them. Shelly tells Rhino they can deliver to Cyrus this message; they both flip the bird to the group. That's enough to enrage them as a 3-on-2 attack ensues. Rhino, Akuma and Gordy picked up where they left off as Akuma hits Sabin with the Rubik's Cube and Gordy delivers a Senton Splash from the top rope. Rhino, then, delivers a Gore on Alex Shelley. Rhino, Akuma and Gordy celebrates but the Guns defy the trio by gingerly standing up and flipping the bird again! Rhino Gores Sabin while Akuma & Gordy deliver a Yoshi Tonic/Flying Leg Drop combo on Shelley. Rhino is seething as Shelley and Sabin are still trying to get up. The show ends as Shelley & Sabin flip the bird to Rhino for a third time while Rhino stomps Shelley yelling “STAY DOWN!” at him.

Next show will be Impact on 4/22 from Hickory Hills, IL

Source: The Wrestling Observer

It seems that TNA is definitely now taking a younger turn as the promotion recently signed The Briscoe Brothers, Gran Akuma and Ray Gordy, son of Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy and known as Jesse or Slam Master J in WWE. By the same token, they decided to release Raven, Dr. Stevie, Tomko and Scott Steiner, although they haven't ruled out a return for any of them "if the right opportunity presents itself". Some other wrestlers, like Sheik Abdul Bashir and Consequences Creed, are said to possibly be the next people cut but that isn't 100% sure. Should Creed be released, WWE officials have already expressed interest in signing him to a WWE developmental deal.

As it pertains to the Knockouts story involving "The Masked Knockout", TNA is keeping tight lips as to who is under the mask as only few people are in the know about it. The only thing that is sure is that it's not a current member of the TNA Knockout roster.

-Homicide beat Matt Morgan

-Postmatch, Kazarian joins Homicide and congratulates him for the win on Morgan. Kazarian asks for the mic and talks about The Kliq's actions, getting them arrested for the incidents of Hard Justice. Kaz admits that it wasn't fun being in the slammer for 24 hours but it was all worth it because if they had the opportunity to do it all over again, they'd do it in a heartbeat. Homicide adds that he wouldn't mind at all doing it all over again....tonight. Homicide wants to talk but his mic is getting cut off all the time. We then can hear “Testing...1...2.....Test...”. The voice is easily recognizable: it's Shawn Michaels! Camera turns to the video wall where we can see that Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash have taken over TNA's production truck. Nash tells Shawn that it reminds him great memories of playing darts with Rey Mysterio by throwing him head first on a trailer at Universal Studios. Shawn promises Nash that if they can find The Amazing Red, they'll do the same in Hickory Hills after the show. Shawn spots the booking sheet of the show on the control board. Nash suggests to Shawn to make some booking on the fly. HBK agrees, saying that Big Sexy is sort of an expert with that. Nash spots Hernandez' name on the sheet, as he's scheduled for a match tonight. Shawn doesn't like the match and scratches Hernandez' opponent's name to replace it with Ric Flair's. Nash likes it but he feels like this doesn't have a big match feel and with two of TNA's biggest names involved in it, there should be a special stipulation attached to it. Nash says he's got an idea. Nash adds to the booking sheet “Ultimate X Match”. Shawn asks Nash if he's joking. Nash says absolutely not; just replace the X by a Rolex or Lauren Thompson's panties and Flair will win the match hands down. Shawn hands a production assistant the booking sheet and tells her to notify TNA officials in the arena of the change. Meanwhile, back in the arena, Homicide and Kazarian had enough and are headed to the back but they're attacked by Scott Hall and 6-Pac in the corridor backstage. Scott Hall retrieves a ladder and hits Kazarian in the stomach with it. Hall sets up Homicide and then delivers the Outsider's Edge on the ladder. 6-Pac throws Homicide against a wall while Scott Hall sandwiches Kazarian with the ladder. 6-Pac proceeds to deliver a beatdown on Kaz, using a chair. The Kliq high-five each other and leaves as Homicide crawls to Kazarian

World Television Championship: Mark Briscoe beat Chris Sabin to retain

-Lauren Thompson is in the back with Sheik Abdul Bashir & Eric Young. We can't make anything of what they're saying since Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash, still in the production truck, decide to plug a live edition of the Heartbreak Hotel...next!

-Back in the arena, the heart-shaped bed is in the middle of the ring and it's time for another edition of the Heartbreak Hotel. Shawn thanks Big Sexy for acting as the Hotel's head of security and tells the fans he has a treat for them. Shawn points to the air that the stage is set of the Ultimate X Match between Ric Flair and Hernandez next and he wants to feel the pulse of his good friend Ric Flair before that big match. Shawn invites the Nature Boy to come out. Cues Ric Flair entering the ring, not looking happy. Shawn asks Slick Ric how he feels about undertaking the challenge of an Ultimate X for the first time of his career. Ric says he's extremely disappointed of Shawn. This is what he feared about him joining TNA, knowing that Hall, Nash and 6-Pac were already there. Flair admired Shawn for overcoming his demons and redeeming himself to the business by giving back to its young stars. Flair believes he was naive when he thought that Shawn was coming to TNA to do the same he did in WWE. Instead, Shawn prostituted himself to his friends and now resorts back to pulling the same juvenile antics that almost ostracized him from the entire locker room in WWE back in the day. Flair admits that he wasn't a role model by any means but he always made it a priority to be respectful to the business and those in it. Shawn tells Flair that with all due respect, it's all BS to him. Shawn believes that Flair still holds a grudge towards him for retiring him at Wrestlemania 24. Shawn promised the world he would put down Old Yeller out of his misery and he did. Shawn held true to his word and Flair didn't by returning to TNA. So if anybody should be disappointed in somebody, that's Shawn himself. In his view, it's Flair who prostituted himself to his legacy by refusing to let go. That prompts Flair to chop down Shawn and pounding on him. Nash joins the fray and helps out Shawn but Hernandez quickly makes the save, to chase Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash. Referee Slick Johnson comes out and signals for the Ultimate X Match to start.

Ultimate X Match: Hernandez beat Ric Flair. Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash stayed at commentary for the match and at the end, when Hernandez went for the X, Kevin Nash left the broadcast booth to attempt a run-in on him but Brother Ray came from the back and attacked Nash, allowing Hernandez to grab the X for the win. Postmatch, Ray went for a table but HBK and Nash quickly left to the back.

-Eric Young beat James Storm

-Velvet Sky & Daffney beat Michiko Omukai & Carol Midori by DQ after Omukai refused to let go of her Crucifix Armbar on Sky. Then, Awesome Kong's music cues and she makes her way to the ring. Omukai & Midori waste no time and hightail their way out of the ring. Kong turns her attention to Velvet Sky, who's still on the canvas. Kong helps Sky up....only to clothesline her down on the mat! Kong picks up Velvet Sky and delivers the Awesome Bomb on her. Kong looks at Daffney and motions about getting a belt around her waist. Daffney starts to maniacally laugh while the camera goes to the back with Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash. Nash asks Shawn what did he tell to the Knockout locker room for them all to turn on Velvet. Shawn answers “That's for us to know and for you to find out”. The camera pans to reveal The Beautiful People standing behind Nash and HBK, all mocking Velvet Sky' misfortunes.

-In the back, we see Hulk Hogan's daughter, Brooke, discussing with some TNA employees when she's approached by The World Elite. Sheik Abdul Bashir talks about how repelling to see a young woman dressed the way she is when in his country, most women wears the burqa. TNA World Tag Team Champions The British Invasion add that this demonstrates a certain lack of class from her part and despite not sharing the same religion, young ladies from England would've certainly showed more respect and dress more accordingly. Eric Young looks at Brooke and tells her this has nothing to do with what she looks like or anything. Young finds deplorable that his father lacks respect towards the World Elite and if they had to play by the same morals than him, that's what they'll do. The World Elite hassle Brooke for a moment until James Storm shows up, telling them to leave the young lady alone. Eric Young asks Storm one good reason why. Storm tells Young they don't, he will shove that beer bottle of their ass. Young orders his troops to back off. A scared Brooke hugs James Storm, thanking him for rescuing her. Storm says that now, she owes him a date. At that precise moment, Hulk Hogan shows up behind Storm. Hogan now tells Storm to back off his daughter. Brooke tries to explain the situation to her dad but the Hulkster wants none of it. Hogan clearly understood that James Storm wanted to make things personal for their match at Sacrifice but he doesn't want him nowhere near his daughter Brooke. Storm tells Hogan that from now on, he won't ever approach his daughter. Storm takes a sip of his beer...and spits it in Hogan's face! Brooke tries to restrain her dad while Storm tips his hat to Brooke and leaves. Brooke convinces her father to leave the arena.

-Christopher Daniels and Brutus Magnus come to the ring as they're about to wrestle each other one-on-one. Before referee Rudy Charles can start the match, “The Pope” D'Angelo Dinero comes out on the stage. Dinero says that Hulk Hogan had a message to deliver to Brutus Magnus before the match started but obviously, he didn't have the time to tell him since he and his daughter Brooke left. But since Dinero was in the same room than Hogan when he mentioned it, he thought he'd be the messenger. Dinero tells Magnus that it's been a while since The British Invasion had defended the World Tag Team Championship on TV and Hogan wanted to wait for a perfect opportunity to answer this problem. With what The British Invasion did to him on Xplosion, Hogan thought that now would be a good time. Dinero tells Magnus that Hulk Hogan made this match a TNA World Tag Team Championship Match! Should Christopher Daniels win, he will decide to choose whoever he wants to defend the tag team titles with him. And one last thing, since he's expecting some help from his partner Doug Williams, the title can also change on DQ or countout!

TNA World Tag Team Championship: Christopher Daniels beat Brutus Magnus by reverse decision of referee Rudy Charles. Originally, Doug Williams had come to ringside and tripped Christopher Daniels as he was going for the Best Moonsault Ever and held Daniels' foot to prevent him from kicking out. However, D'Angelo Dinero returned to the ring and showed referee Rudy Charles the replay of Doug Williams' actions. Therefore, Charles reversed the decision and awarded the match and World Tag Team Championship to Christopher Daniels.

-In the main event, “The Boss” Bobby Lashley beat Jay Lethal. Both men shook hands after the match.

-The World Elite (Sheik Abdul Bashir & Eric Young) beat “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe & Jay Lethal by DQ after Joe refused to let go of the Kokina Clutch on Eric Young. Postmatch, Joe takes the mic and says it came to his attention that Christopher Daniels wasn't sold yet on who he's gonna pick as the co-holder of the TNA World Tag Team Championship. Joe is aware that many people in the dressing room don't consider him as a team player but he wants to prove them wrong and that's why he teamed up with his friend Jay Lethal tonight. Joe says that if he has to team up with everyone in TNA to show Daniels he's worthy of being tag champion with him, that's what he'll do. Joe says he has a better idea though: instead, he's gonna kill all competition so Daniels won't have any choice but to pick him. Joe apologizes to Jay Lethal before locking in the Kokina Clutch on him until referee Brian Hebner is able to make him break the hold.

-”The Monster” Abyss beat Hulk Hogan. Beer Money were watching the match in their private locker room. Storm says he has something to do so he's gonna have to leave.

World Television Championship: Mark Briscoe beat Rick Fuller (w/Jimmy Hart)

-”The Icon” Sting comes to the ring to a nice ovation and says he has something to address and it involves AJ Styles. Sting doesn't know if AJ is here but he's gonna say it just in case he hears him. Sting admits to being appalled by the way AJ Styles has been treated by Cyrus since he got in charge of TNA. Styles has been reduced to the rank of benchwarmer that Cyrus can use whenever he sees fit and Sting knows that AJ is more valuable to the promotion than anybody else in the locker room. Sting recalls when he first joined TNA during the PPV days at the Asylum. He was looking at everyone backstage and he noticed that kid doing all sorts of crazy stuff. Sting recalled seeing that same kid a few times in action during the last moments of WCW and thought that he would've been just a bit older, perhaps he would've been a staple in the Cruiserweight division during the Monday Night Wars. Sting said he saw AJ Styles evolve into the franchise player he is today and that's because he has made more sacrifices for this business than anybody else he knows. Sting acknowledges that Styles once turned down a WWE developmental contract because he wanted more money to put food on his family's table while his wife was going back to school. He says he doesn't know anybody else who would've turned down this kind of opportunity but he did. Sting also acknowledges AJ Styles strong Christian beliefs and says that he can understand what he's going through. Sting is aware that he doesn't have much long left in the business and he wants to make one more sacrifice; for him, it's no longer about the titles or the recognition since he had plenty of it during his career. Sting wants to help AJ Styles reach the next plateau and it's the Icon plateau. Sting asks the fans if they'd like to see Sting vs AJ Styles in the ring. The fans are excited but at that moment, AJ Styles runs in the ring and clocks Sting from behind. Styles' face is beet red and takes the mic from Sting. Styles says he's not a benchwarmer and he won't play second fiddle to anybody. Styles accuses Sting of hogging the spotlight for too long. Styles believes that Sting doesn't see him as his equal, which he is. Styles continues to say that he's not a loser and he's gonna prove it tonight by beating Homicide. Styles then tells Sting to not dare comparing himself to him because they're not on the same level at all. Styles leaves while Sting uses the ropes to get up.

-Backstage, Hulk Hogan is in his private office with his daughter Brooke. Hogan seems to be very disappointed about his loss and starts to second-guess himself. Maybe James Storm was right and he can't cut it anymore. Brooke reassures her father, telling him that Storm just got into his head and she knows he can beat him. Brooke kisses her dad on the cheeks and they both exit Hogan's office.

-Traci Brooks beat Awesome Kong (w/Daffney) with a small package. Postmatch, a frustrated Kong and Daffney completely decimate Traci Brooks with the Awesome Bomb and a spike piledriver. Tenay and Taz are wondering if anybody will dare to stop Kong & Daffney....

-Homicide beat “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles with the Gringo Cutter. Postmatch, Styles throws a tantrum at ringside, screaming that he's not a loser.

-There is some commotion in the back as a woman is heard screaming and the camera crew catch up The World Elite delivering a beatdown on James Storm in a 4-on-1 attack. The British Invasion, Eric Young and Sheik Abdul Bashir are pounding on James Storm. The woman turns out to be Brooke Hogan and she returns with her father Hulk, who has a chair in hands, and he's able to chase away The World Elite. TNA World Heavyweight Champion Robert Roode comes along and is now face-to-face with Hogan, still having a chair in hand. Roode is about to jump on Hogan but James Storm motions for Roode to stop. Roode helps his partner getting up and Storm nods his head, thanking Storm. Hogan does the same and he and Brooke leave.

-”The Boss” Bobby Lashley & Consequences Creed vs The British Invasion ends in a draw due to a double countout. Doug Williams had knocked down Bobby Lashley with brass knuckles but D'Angelo Dinero comes out and pushes Williams on the post, knocking him out too.

TNA X-Division Championship: Super Crazy beat Kurt Angle to retain.

-”Cowboy” James Storm beat Sheik Abdul Bashir. Postmatch, Storm takes the mic and calls out Hulk Hogan. Hogan comes out to a great pop and gets in the ring. Storm assures Hogan that he's not here for a fight and he's capable of waiting until Sacrifice. Storm didn't have the opportunity to thank Hogan for saving him from a beatdown at the hands of the World Elite Thursday on Impact. Storm is thankful to Hogan because Hogan didn't have to do that, especially after the way he treated him and his daughter Brooke. Hogan says he did it because it was the right thing to do and he wanted his daughter out of harm's way. He doesn't know if Storm would've done the same for him but he hopes he would've. Storm says that maybe this will convince him. Storm extends his hand to Hogan, who seems hesitant. Hogan looks at the crowd as they're also wary of Storm's intentions. Hogan finally accepts to shake Storm's hand but at this moment, TNA World Heavyweight Championship Robert Roode comes out from the crowd and decks Hogan with the Northern Lariat! Tenay and Taz are stunned since they thought Roode was in Orlando tonight. Beer Money double team Hogan and they work on his knee. Roode neutralizes Hogan's knee as Storm use the World Heavyweight Championship belt to pound Hogan's knee. Storm signals for Drinking While Investing as Roode sets up Hogan. Then, the crowd literally explodes in the New Alhambra as Kurt Angle' music hits in the PA system and Angle comes out on the stage. Angle stare at Beer Money as they drop Hogan on the canvas.

Cyrus said he promised Daffney he would make her the Scream Queen of TNA and he's gonna make sure that'll happen at Sacrifice!

-Back from the break, Mike Tenay and Taz discuss the incidents between Sting and AJ Styles Thursday night on Impact. We're then taken to the back as Lauren Thompson is standing by with Sting. Lauren asks Sting if he has anything to say to Styles after what he did to him Thursday. Sting says that the only thing he wanted was to show appreciation for what AJ did in TNA but it seems that Cyrus' mind games had a deeper psychological effect on AJ than he previously thought. Sting says that he meant what he said about AJ Styles and he still respects him more than anybody else in the TNA locker room. Sting says that his offer still stands and he even has a date for the match to happen; if AJ Styles wants so bad to prove himself to the world, he's gonna do it at the Sacrifice PPV. Sting reiterates that the PPV itself embodies what AJ Styles' career with TNA has been: sacrifice after sacrifice. Sting hopes that AJ Styles will be a man about it and accept his challenge.

Williams deplores Dinero's arrogance to call himself “The Pope” when he doesn't have any prestige whatsoever. D'Angelo Dinero walks in the interview area and Williams blows a gasket. Williams wants to know what Dinero wants. Dinero says that he wants Doug Williams' ass at Sacrifice. Williams agrees but tells Dinero that all he had to do was to challenge him, man-to-man, like a decent and honourable man would do. Dinero knows but it was more fun torturing Williams. So, to make things official, he will use a tradition that Williams is quite familiar with. Dinero takes off his gloves and slaps Williams in the face with it. Dinero says “Now, it's official”. Dinero leaves as Brutus Magnus struggles to restrain his tag partner. Show ends with Doug Williams seething at Dinero.

-James Storm & Sting after Hulk Hogan pinned James Storm. AJ Styles ran in and prevented Sting from making the save.

Postmatch, the referee gives Hogan & Daniels the World Tag Team Championship. Hogan takes the mic and says that it would be an honor for him to defend these straps with Daniels but the truth is, he can't. Hogan's focus is all on James Storm and their match at Sacrifice and it wouldn't be fair for Daniels for him to be a distraction and possibly costing him a good run with the belts. So, Hogan wishes Daniels good luck but relinquishes his half of the World Tag Team Championship. They shake hands and Hogan leaves the ring as Daniels celebrates.

-Lauren Thompson is in the back with Network members Gran Akuma & Ray Gordy. Lauren asks them what they're planning to do after The Amazing Red prevented them from attacking the Briscoes & Homicide earlier tonight. Akuma says that The Network will make an example out of The Amazing Red at Sacrifice, no matter who it is. Cyrus interrupts the interview and says he agrees with Akuma. Since Rhino will be busy dismantling Alex Shelley at Sacrifice, it's gonna come down to Akuma or Gordy.

-Mick Foley & Brother Ray are walking in the back as they spot Velvet Sky in the hallway, near a locker room area. They approach her and they both apologize for the way she's been treated as of late. Foley invites Velvet to hang out with he and Ray for the rest of the night but Velvet declines, claiming that she's invited to The Kliq celebration party for 6-Pac title win. Brother Ray warns Velvet about The Kliq's shenanigans and call them hypocrites. That prompts The Kliq to get out of their dressing room and interrupt the conversation. Nash tells Ray & Foley to beat it and leave the chick alone since it's a private party. Ray says it's obvious to them that she doesn't want to be anywhere near them. Shawn Michaels asks Ray who Velvet Sky will side with: the only people that accepted her or the people that trashed her behind her back for the past couple of months. More words are exchanged and a shoving match ensues between Ray and Nash. Foley tries to break it up but 6-Pac knocks out Foley with the belt. The Outsiders now team up on Brother Ray as they drag him in their dressing room while Shawn pulls Velvet Sky away from the brawl and leave. Nash then powerbombs Brother Ray through a table still full of food. The Outsiders then proceed to pour beer on Ray as Mick Foley crawls to him, beaten up by 6-Pac. Show ends on The Outsiders & 6-Pac mocking Ray & Foley...

She says that she'll do everything to meet Alissa Flash at Slammiversary on June 13 for a title match.

-Jeremy Borash is in the back with The Briscoe Brothers. JB commends them on their amazing performance since their debut with TNA, including Mark Briscoe's reign as World Television Championship. Mark says that their eyes are now set on Slammiversary next month and they're hopeful to get a World Tag Team Championship Match at the PPV. Jay says that if they have to work twice as much than everybody else to get noticed, that's what they'll do. The Briscoes say it's time for TNA to “Man Up”.

-It's now time for The Heartbreak Hotel as Shawn Michaels is alone in the ring. He admits he's a little bit under the effect of all the partying this weekend but no worries, it was all done in good taste. HBK says it's time to welcome his guest for this Heartbreak Hotel, the #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship, Kurt Angle. Angle comes out to a great pop and enters the ring. Angle seems a little anxious but Michaels promised him there won't be any Pearl Harbor attack. Shawn says he knows how Angle must be disappointed that 6-Pac defeated Robert Roode for the World Heavyweight Title. With all that preparation to face Roode and to make the biggest statement of his career and suddenly....whoosh....The Kliq takes it all away. Angle slips a wry chuckle at Shawn. Michaels asks him if he said something funny. Angle motions for HBK to go ahead. HBK says that once again, Kurt Angle's dreams have been crushed by the Heartbreak Kid and the Kliq. He doesn't know what he'll be doing at the PPV but The Kliq will still be partying. Angle lets slip another smile and Michaels seems annoyed. HBK asks Angle what's so funny. Angle answers that he finds funny that Michaels is just assuming things while he is totally clueless. Angle suggests for Michaels, and 6-Pac for that matter, to listen to what Cyrus has to say. Cyrus appears on the video wall and congratulates 6-Pac for his title win on Impact. However, as much as the Kliq wish for the party to continue, Party's over. Cyrus makes it clear that Kurt Angle has an iron-clad stipulation in his new TNA contract that he must have a World Heavyweight Championship match and this is irrevocable. Since Robert Roode is no longer the champion and there's always the “card subject to change” mention on every PPV event, Cyrus decided to enforce the previously signed Falls Count Anywhere Match between Angle and Roode...except that 6-Pac will now replace Robert Roode to defend the title! Kurt says he wishes now for the fans to get a little preview of what's to come for 6-Pac. Angle headbutts HBK and he goes down. Angle then locks the Ankle Lock on HBK, who's screaming in pain. New TNA World Heavyweight Champion 6-Pac runs in and jumps on Angle. HBK escapes the ring as Angle and Pac exchange blows.

-Cut to an empty arena sitdown interview between Hernandez and Mike Tenay earlier today. Tenay acknowledges that it's been a tough year for Hernandez as he was the victim of numerous attacks throughout the year, including last Thursday on Impact as James Storm left him with a nasty gash on his head, following a broken beer bottle shot on his skull. Hernandez says it's not about everything that happens to you, it's about how many times you get up and keep going. Despite his attitude, Shawn Michaels has always been a great example for him to follow because he taught him everything he knows in the business, with the help of Texas Wrestling Academy trainer Rudy Boy Gonzalez. Tenay asks Hernandez about the recent reunion of LAX a few months ago. Hernandez admits that it's great to have Homicide on the same page and even if they might not tag together regularly, they're still fighting the same cause and that's to make the Latinos proud. If they can become tag champions together, that's fine. But they also have singles objectives in mind as well; Homicide is shooting for the X-Division title while he's aiming at the World Heavyweight Championship. He's gonna be looking at the World Heavyweight Championship match at Sacrifice with great interest, and then, do everything in his power to be the next in line for a title shot at Slammiversary or later down the line.

However, something he has to do with is assembling together the next incarnation of his ECW brainchild, The Network. Cyrus reminds the fans that 10 years ago, he completely controlled the promotion and Spike, then known as TNN and as soon as he left, ECW went down south. Cyrus tells the fans history will repeat itself as he introduces The Network: his fearless warrior, Gran Akuma; the toughest little man in this business, son of late Freebird Terry “Bam Bam” Gordy, Ray “Slam Jam” Gordy. And finally, last but not least, his War Machine, Rhino. Cyrus promises that heading towards Slammiversary in June, The Network will reign supreme atop TNA.

Red enters the ring to a nice pop. Kurt tells Red that he and Ray Gordy tore the roof up last night at Sacrifice and he doesn't have to be ashamed of losing that match. They don't have a loss in the record book in common; they also have the desire and passion for this business that no one else in the locker room has.
