Pre-Show Ad - ANOTHER SUPERSTAR HAS CROSSED THE LINE! DON’T MISS THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF THIS HISTORIC TNA IMPACT!
Tenay - ALL THE CLUES, FROM THE TRADEMARK BLACK TOWEL, THE 13 NUMBER, AND THE FTW LOGO LED US TO SOLVING THE MYSTERY!
Taz - History lesson - many years ago I wrestled for a promotion called ECW. And during my time, unfortunately, I sustained some career-shortening spinal injuries which prevented me from wrestling! So the bottom line is that was cut short for me, and I called hundred of matches for the WWE as a color commentator. But, as cool as that was, I felt like there was more I could do, so one night I filck on TNA Wrestling. So I watch and I see this untapped force loaded with cred and potential and I swear to God, it took me back a decade - what I saw was the second coming of Taz! What I saw was Samoa Joe! Even though Joe and myself had a lot in common, there’s a difference - Joe would show remorse, where I was not capable of that! So I reached out to Joe, had a conversation with him and said that you wanna win titles and get money - not be Mr. popular. So next thing ya know, I become the teacher, he’s the student and he’s on everybody’s radar! And the one man that pursued the most aggression to get his services was the 13-time world champion - Kurt Angle. For that, Joe and myself are forever indebted to him and the prestigious Main Event Mafia. So here’s the deal - tonight, Joe brings some more gold to the Mafia. Tonight, he becomes the TNA X Division Champion! I got a message for Homicide - beat Joe if you can BROTHA, BUT SURVIVE IF HE LETS YOU!
DW - When the MEM got the gold, the knew they had to do it one at a time. They got the Legends and Tag belts, and I’ve heard “what about the other belts, aren’t they important to the Mafia? YOU BET THEY ARE. ONE AT A TIME!
(after an overhead Tazzplex)Tenay - I THINK THAT WAS A TRIBUTE TO HIS MENTOR!
DW - He’s going “there ya go, grasshopper!”
Tenay - THE! BIG! MAN! IS! BACK!
(during a Joe-Hernandez standoff)DW - IT’S TWO OF THE BIGGEST AND BADDEST ASSES IN TNA!
Tenay - It’s time for those of us who have been with TNA since the beginning to face the music…
Angle - The MEM and TNA Management are willing to work together to give you the best possible show!z
DW - HE’S SO FOR THE TEAM!
Angle - What would happen if the MEM left TNA? YOU’D HAVE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS RUNNING THE TITANIC INTO THE ICEBERG! TNA NEEDS THE MEM!
DW - You better believe we do…
Angle - With Jeff Jarrett at home…and Sting licking his wounds, there’s only one person left to address - Mick Foley. What does Mick really do? I mean, let’s be honest, he’s lost total control. He lets the inmates run the asylum - he’s not the wrestler he once was, and he’s taken up much-needed office space in the back.
Foley - I said that Mick Foley tappin’ wasn’t gonna happen…and well, you made me tap. After Sunday, I wanted to get away from it all - days, weeks, months - who knows!? Until I heard about you messing around with the TNA front office - conning them into thinking that TNA is worthless without the Mafia. When you formed, I said this is the greatest assemblage of champions in one ring - and on Sunday, you all backed it up. We all dropped the ball - AJ, Roode, Storm, and no one dropped it more than I did. As fara s me not being the same wrestler, hey, for 10 minutes, I WAS THE WRESTLER I USED TO BE! AND I RAN OUTTA GAS AND MAYBE GUTS, and you were the better man that night, but the fact that you’re a 13 time world champ means you know what it’s like to have a bad day on at least 12 different occasions!
Angle - I could kick your ass right now, but I’m not going to, because there’s one last thing I want - see these keys? They’re the keys to your office. We’re gonna put these keys high up ON A POLE, and all you have to do to get your office back is climb your sprained-ankled-ass up the pole and grab the keys! Do that, and the office is yours! And you will save what little dignity you have. Mick, or should I say, old tapper, I’ll see you later tonight.
Tenay - NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE THE FIRST TITLE DEFENSES OF NASH AND THE STEINER/BOOKER TEAM, BUT WE’LL HAVE ANGLE VERSUS FOLEY WITH FOLEY’S OFFICE KEYS AT STAKE!
Williams - TONIGHT, ALL NATIONS UNITE! (camera cuts immediately to Tenay and DW)
DW - WHEN THE MAFIA SAID THEY’D DEFEND THEIR TITLES, I THOUGHT THEY’D GO SOFT! HOW CAN HE DEFEND AGAINST RED!?
Tenay - I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW OVER THE TOP YOU ARE!
DW - IT’S NOT ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE DOG IN THE FIGHT, IT’S ABOUT THE FIGHT IN THE DOG!
Tenay - NASH WITH THE RAPID-FIRE KNEES TO RED! HE’S EXPLODING THAT… EXPLOITING THAT SIZE WITH EXPLOSIVE BLOWS!
(after being bealed)DW - WOW, WATCH RED FLY!
(after Red flips over after the jacknife)DW - WOWY COW!
Borash YOUR LAPTOP YOU’RE WRITING YOUR NEW BOOK ON, THE TWEAK AND TWEAK PICTURE!? YOU’RE PUTTING IT ALL ON THE LINE TONIGHT!?
Foley - HE CAN TAKE MY OFFICE, NOT THE PICTURE! KEY’S ON A POLE!? WHY NOT DO EVERYTHING THIS WAY!? OBAMA-MCCAIN - PUT THE PRESIDENCY ON A POLE! TONIGHT, I CLIMB THE STUPID POLE TO GET THE KEYS TO MY OFFICE!
Tenay - JUST THREE MATCHES IN, AND WE’RE ALREADY AT OUR THIRD TITLE MATCH ON THE SHOW!
DW - You know that math you like to do? Well, Rocco and Sally Boy have about a 400 pound weight advantage! AND ALL THAT EXPERIENCE! WHAT’S KURT ANGLE THINKING LETTING THEM POSSIBLY LOSE THE TITLES!?
Tenay - YOU’RE JUST SO OVER THE TOP!
EY - Mick, I need to talk to you…
Foley - I’m looking at an invisible pole and I’m climbing it in my mind - what’s more important than that?
Lauren - Why even be in this knockouts battle royale?
Tara - $50,000...I don’t need it, but I know a lot of charities that could use it. The Maim Evem…Mafia, whatever it is, doesn’t have the you know what to make me their biyatch!
Tenay - COULD YOU IMAGINE IF AWESOME KONG WAS IN THE MAFIA?!
DW - While you’re dreaming of Kong, I’m dreaming of the Beautiful People!
Nash - Last one standing will be the MEM’s Chosen One. I put up 50 grand - this is a day of my pay!
Tenay - CAN YOU IMAGINE IF KONG JOINED THE MAFIA!?
Nash - I don’t even think the big bad booty daddy’s ready for that.
(after ODB’s eliminated ass over teakettle)DW - That’s a big booty right there.
Nash - OBGYN movement there.
Nash - If I’m gonna pick one of them, I’m gonna hit…pick Tara!
(after Traci wins)Nash - IT’S THE HOME OF THE D-CUPS! I’M OUTTA HERE!
Love - WE SHOULD BE SERVICING THE MAFIA! HELLO!?
Sky - IT’S A FRIGGIN’ CONSPIRACY! FIRST IT’S THE DISGUSTING RODENT! AND NOW THE CROOKED REF!
Lauren - You mean Traci or what you did on Sunday?
Rayne - WE DIDN’T PULL ANYTHING ON SLICK!
Sky - I looked at the guest list for this conversation and NOPE, YOU’RE NOT ON IT! SHUT UP, LAUREN!
(after Sky knees Deaner in the sack)ODB - I HATE THOSE WHORES!
Deaner - THE DEANER DIAMONDS HAVE BEEN SHATTERED!
Penzer - THE TNA ORIGINALS! (Daniels, AJ, EY, and Beer Money come out to no entrance video and a generic theme)
DW - Kiyoshi and I were out having dinner last night and he told me that he’s gonna really impress here in TNA.
(after EY piledrives AJ)Tenay - TEHRE IS AN UNWRITTEN LOCKER ROOM CODE THAT YOU DON’T USE THE PILEDRIVER! AND HE USED THE PILEDRIVER!
Tenay - OH THAT JUST HAD TO PO MICK FOLEY!
JB - LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I’VE SEEN SOME THINGS IN MY DAY….
EY - I’M ELITE - WE’RE THE WORLD ELITE! EVERYTHING IN TNA IS GONNA CHANGE FOREVER! (Foley jumps them)
Penzer - This is your TNA Impact feature contest - a keys on a pole match!
Tenay - THIS IS SO DAMN IMPORTANT TO THE FUTURE OF TNA AND EVERYONE THAT WORKS HERE!
Ad Guy - THE GOD OF THUNDER, BOBBY LASHLEY RETURNS OT TNA NEXT WEEK ON THE 200TH EDITION OF IMPACT!
Tenay - FOLEY TOSSES ASIDE THE SOCK! THAT SHOWS YOU HOW CONFIDENT HE IS THAT HE CAN WIN!
Angle - FOLEY, YOUR NEXT CARD WILL BE YOUR LAST CARD!
DW - ANGLE’S PLAYING THE LASHLEY CARD! AND THAT’S WORTH FOUR ACES!
Tenay - THE MMA STAR, THE WORLD WRESTLING CHAMPION IS TAKING IT TO THE MAFIA! TAKE THAT DON WEST!
