iMPACT: Running it back with Team 3D and The Hardys

Greetings and salutations! It’s Thursday and that means that it is time for another edition of TNA iMPACT. I wanted to also apologize for not being up to date with my reports, but the truth is that real life took over but luckily we will be getting full coverage this weekend with tonight’s iMPACT and Friday’s Victory Road. Tonight’s show will be sure to leave an impact (Get it?!?!) as The Hardys and Team 3D run it back and have one final confrontation before their world tag team title match at TNA Bound For Glory. Also on the show we will see Frankie Kazarian and Jake Something versus Steve Maclin and Mr. Anderson. The Call Your Shot Gauntlet Battle Royale is back and this week we have a qualifying Battle Royal for spot 20, and finally Jody Threat takes on Victoria Crawwford. Here is a look at the full card:

  • The Hardys & Team 3D – “The Final Negotation”
  • Frankie Kazarian & Jake Something vs. Steve Maclin & Mr. Anderson
  • Call Your Shot Gauntlet Battle Royal Qualifier
  • Cedric Alexander & Leon Slater vs. The Rascalz
  • Jody Threat vs. Victoria Crawford
  • Mike Santana’s road to Bound for Glory

The show starts off with a recap from last week’s Mustafa Ali and Brian Myers match which set up a huge multi-person match for Bound For Glory. We also see highlights of The Hardys versus the Nemeth brothers.

Leon Slater & Cedric Alexander vs. The Rascals (Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz)

As expected, things are intense and fast paced. Slater takes out Wentz with a slingshot crossbody that sends him outside. Slater is left in the ring as The Rascalz doubel team him and try to cut him off from his partner. Alexander with a huge dive to the floor. Back in the ring, Miguel hits Slater with a knee, and Wentz off the top with a swanton for a near fall. The Rascals try to double team Slater again, but this time Alexander break things up and “goes ham” as he starts to Suplex everyone. Slater hit Miguel with a Swanton 450 to get the win.

Winners: Cedric Alexander & Leon Slater

After the match, Myron Reed gets up from commentary to confront Leon Slater ahead of their match for the TNA X Division Championship at TNA Victory Road.

Gia Miller is backstage with Frankie Kazarian and Jake Something. Kaz says that he and Something have found common ground and hypes up tonight’s tag team match against Steve Maclin and Mr. Anderson. Frankie then ends things by making fun of Mr. Anderson’s self indulgent introduction.
