Impact: The System have a broken celebration

Greetings and salutations! While Bob does Bob stuff, I’ll be reporting for TNA Impact. On this week’s show we have The System with a champions celebration as all members of the group are holding a title belt. We will also have a number 1 contender’s match for the TNA Tag Team Championship as ABC (Chris Bey & Ace Austin) will square off against Speedball Mountain (Mike Bailey & Trent Seven) We will also see the returning Jonathan Gresham in his new spooky gimmick. With all this and more, let’s get to a full night of wrestling.

We start things off with a recap of the TNA+ special, Under Siege.

The System has a celebration

The System comes to the ring for a championship celebration. Brian Myers kicked things off and told everyone to feast your eyes on the greatest faction in TNA Wrestling history. He also mentioned that each member of The System has a title right now. Myers said that they’ve all been winning titles their entire career so this should be no surprise. Myers says The System runs on gold, and they ARE a dynasty. Moose says he’s played on a lot of great teams, but The System is the greatest team of all time. Eddie Edwards says their accomplishments speak for themselves. He then congratulates his wife for winning her first Tag Team Knockouts championship. Alisha says she wants more flare and we see a hype video for The System.

Broken Matt Hardy is out and he gives kudos to The System for capturing more gold at Under Siege, but he also says that the war is far from over. Hardy says nothing is going to stop him from procuring the TNA Championship. He then adds that he now understands The System, and he knows what he must do to render The system Obsolete. Hardy says this isn’t the end; it’s only the beginning. Hardy calls Alisha a witch and tells her to shut up before she gets on Queen Rebecca’s radar. Moose reminds Hardy there are four of them and only one of him. Hardy says he doesn’t like their odds as he starts to attack The System with a chair. Matt gets over taken and Moose puts the chair on Hardy’s head and was going to taken him out the same way they did Nic Nemeth, but Ryan Nemeth makes the save with a kendo stick in hand.

A video plays recapping the X-Division Championship match between Mustafa Ali and Ace Austin at Under Siege. ABC are backstage with Gia Miller and Ace Austin says that tonight’s tag match isn’t going to come between them and he says that if someone had his back he’d be champ now. Chris Bey seems a bit unnerved. There are now issues between Austin and Bey, oh the drama.

Santino Marella is backstage and The System approach him and yell at him. They want something to be done to Matt Hardy and Ryan Nemeth. Marella says he’s about to make an announcement that will allow The System to get some revenge.

Gabby tried to apologize by airing a video of Ash attacking Havoc at Under Siege.

Gabby questions if Ash is so angry because of her loss to Xia Brookside a few weeks back. Ash says that’s why she’s upset, but it’s not because she lost., Ash said she was made because it was the referee who stole her jewelry causing her to lose. Gabby says she spoke to TNA management, she can get her jewelry back if she can beat Xia Brookside in a rubber match next week. Xia Brookside comes out and says they can have the rematch.
