After a short video recaps last week’s NWA World Heavyweight Championship match and the aftermath, we open this week’s broadcast with Commissioner Piper already in the ring, clutching a microphone and standing next to a podium. There’s an item atop said podium but we cannot see what it is because it is covered by a large red cloth. Ooooh, the mystery!</span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

Piper starts out by mentioning last week’s title match, he’s sorry it didn’t end the way that many fans wanted it to. But he’s looking forward to TNA Genesis and that’s why he’s out here tonight. He’s been dealing with Team Jarrett for the last month and he doesn’t know what they’ve done to poison the well within the National Wrestling Alliance. If he didn’t know any better he’d think Don Callis is the NWA President, not Bill Behrens. But that’s just fine to him...</span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

He mentions that he trained mystery opponent Petey Williams along with recent X-Division contender Chris Sabin.

Christopher Daniels takes the stick from Skipper to respond. He hears what they’re saying and he’s got to be honest, he’s a little frustrated. He’s moved on from Triple X but these two hangers on clearly have not. At TNA Genesis, he’ll fight both of them in a Three Way Dance and hopefully then, they can move onto different paths.</span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

Tenay notices early on that Storm leans into his strength as a brawler and a striker, something that the former X-Division Champion cannot put up with long despite his more impressively stocky build. Siaki is a strong man though and he eases Storm up for both the Samoan Pop and the Siaki Drop, getting into his groove once he stops Storm from hitting him in the face. </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

But there’s an ambush at ringside as Shane Douglas and Monty Brown attack Chris Harris, the diversion buying enough time for Michael Shane to slide into the ring and deliver his wicked Superkick to the ‘Cowboy’!

Finally, Raven gets his hands on The Gathering in the ring! Dinero is sporting one of those oversized bandaids across his head, covering the wound he sustained a couple of weeks ago after a backstage attack from his former mentor. He took this match to enact some revenge but what follows is a one-sided affair and no, it’s not in his favour. Raven makes him pay for his betrayal a second time and although Dinero has small flurries of offence, the Raven Effect DDT is merciful.</span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

To the surprise of nobody, this is a fantastic match and helped tremendously by Mike Tenay and Don West’s discussion of Jeff Hardy’s defeat last week and the announcement earlier tonight of Sting vs. Jarrett to crown the first ever TNA World Heavyweight Champion. Tenay treats this match as though the winner could be first in line for a shot and it’s partly why he’s the voice of high drama matches such as this one. If it appeared like a meaningless match on paper it certainly didn’t feel that way in execution.</span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

Both Danielson and Styles show why they are two of the highest rated young wrestlers in the business, trading near falls and submissions at a frenetic pace throughout. Styles thinks he has this one wrapped up after the Phenomenon DDT but it’s not to be. Danielson thinks he has it sowed up after a Tiger Suplex but not only does Styles kick out, he also wisely rolls over onto his back before Danielson gets any ideas of the Cattle Mutilation variety. </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';"> </span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Book Antiqua';">

The ‘American Dragon’ attempts a Dragon Suplex but Styles back elbows his way out before stunning Danielson with the Pele!

Genesis promises to be huge! Interesting to see the TNA world title introduced so early, I guess the same awaits for the tag division?

Yeah it has crossed my mind, I think it's just a case of getting the timing right since new tag belts would probably be the end of our membership in the NWA. I don't like the way they book my wrestlers anyway, CSWF did an alliance loan to book Sting and had him lose to Bull Buchanan... thank God only about 90 people saw it. :D

 

Woohoo, Petey Williams! I'm patiently awaiting the arrival for Team Canada.

I'm definitely going to do something like Team Canada, whether it is as it was done in real life remains to be seen. Bobby Roode has been lacklustre so far and I wasn't hugely impressed with Petey, although his low performance may have been a result of his BCW gimmick rating Awful (I used a Talent Trade to book him) and the odd face-heel divide. Something for later in the diary perhaps. :)

Kenny King vs. CM Punk (w/ James Mitchell)

Hudson ponders, is Kenny King
tough enough
for The Gathering’s CM Punk? The short answer is no. But King does give a decent account of himself and surprises everybody when he takes down Punk with a Springboard Lariat, a move we’ve seen from the Chicago native himself from time to time. There’s no panic from the Straight Edge wrestler though and Mitchell coaches his student back into the zone before he puts the debutant away with the Devil Lock DDT.

Jeremy Borash catches up with Michael Shane & Monty Brown in the locker room…

Shane speaks first - on Wednesday, they aided Sonny Siaki in his match against James Storm and now it looks like America’s Most Wanted will be occupied with some tough Samoans. What a shame!

 

Monty Brown has no idea why he has to answer JB’s questions, he don’t talk to no journalists these days. But AMW better stay away or they’ll get da POUNCE!

Low-Ki vs. Chris Vaughn

A difficult afternoon for the young rookie and one that his beetroot red chest is sure to recall for some time. Hudson brings up that Low-Ki will compete for the TNA X-Division Championship at Genesis and he’s in fine fettle here, rarely troubled en route to a victory thanks to the Ki-Krusher.

Danny Doring & Roadkill vs. Glenn Gilbertti & David Young

An Xplosion rematch, what a concept! Team Jarrett keep Doring in their corner, bending the rules until he of course gets the tag to Roadkill. At this point, Gilbertti is sent out of the ring after a Barn Burner and Diamond comes off the comms to try and offer counsel. But Gilbertti loses his patience, shoving the commentator to the floor for getting involved in his match again! As the two members of Team Jarrett argue by the announce table, Doring & Roadkill hit Young with the Buggy Bang and pick up the W.

As the inquest begins in the ring between the members of Team Jarrett…

Simon Diamond finally snaps! He takes down G.G. and starts hammering away with right hands, Jarrett’s favourite stooge covering up as best as possible. David Young tries to pull him off but Diamond only gives him a back elbow and a swift Gem Cutter for his efforts.

 

Gilbertti fires a few shots in Diamond’s direction once back to his feet but a knee to the mid-section slows his assault to a halt and he’s laid out courtesy of a Simonizer. As Diamond storms away up the ramp, Scott Hudson wonders if that’s the end of his broadcast partner in Team Jarrett.

Elix Skipper vs. Jerrelle Clark

In both of his matches so far, Clark has put in impressive performances but fallen short of an elusive first victory.
Jeremy Borash
joins us on commentary, noticing how Clark uses Skipper’s own speed against him to drop toe hold him into the ropes before utilising a 619 to transition into a crucifix armbar. Skipper does manage to escape but it’s an impressive display of ingenuity nonetheless, just like ‘Primetime’ blocking a Gutwrench attempt and countering it into a sudden Kryptonite Krunch to pick up the victory.

Ron Killings vs. Tyler Bateman

Hudson introduces Bateman as the UPW Lightweight Champion and brings up that he’s shared the ring with so many accomplished wrestlers this year alone; Chris Candido, Nelson Knight, Evan Karagias, Mike Barton, Frankie Kazarian. He’s a young wrestler on the rise but he faced a determined Ron Killings tonight and ‘The Truth’ locked this decent match down with the Truth and Consequences.

CARD SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Wednesday, Week 2, March 2004

 

 

 

IxzsRLj.jpg

 

”Did you know that Brock Lesnar’s contract is up?”

 

It was an odd time of the month. Lots of pens must have hit paper at the same time because several WWE contracts were up for renewal. Dutch believed that
Brock Lesnar
was off the table, he had heard through the grapevine that WWE were offering him in excess of $300,000 per month to stay and there was little chance that a star of his magnitude would jump ship.

 

But he was holding out on
Chris Kanyon
, a good hand with national television experience that he believed would fit in well. Still, he was aware that WWE were making a play for him and he was interested in renewing despite his role as a jobber. It was the Molly Holly situation all over again; offering more money and a more prominent role but still losing out.

 

”I hear that Goldberg is leaving! Can you imagine that? Goldberg in TNA!”

 

Dutch had put the feelers out just to see where
Bill Goldberg
stood. Oddly enough, WWE had not offered him a renewal, perhaps the consequence of him being a square peg in a round hole in Connecticut. He couldn’t work long matches and was said to be unpopular with the master “politicians” behind the scenes. But Goldberg was not interested anyway and was instead fielding a lucrative offer from NJPW.

 

”Mick Foley could be an asset to us. I like Mick!”

 

This was one that Dutch was not sure of. There was no doubt that
Mick Foley
possessed considerable star power and he was the finest Hardcore wrestler that the States had ever seen but that was just it, Hardcore wrestling… what else could he bring? As for
Ernest Miller
and
Zach Gowen
, that was a no. Not even Dutch could work out why WWE were keeping them under contract.

 

Kanyon aside it didn’t look like there was much to be hopeful for but he was interested in the potential ramifications of a WWE Star jumping ship to NJPW. Whatever people’s opinions of Bill Goldberg, the man was synonymous with professional wrestling in some people’s minds and Dutch was surprised that they were willing to part with such an asset without so much as a bidding war.

Standard Singles Match

Ron Killings vs. David Young

 

We head straight to the ring this week with Killings back at the Impact Zone after his week away in his home state of North Carolina to clear his head. He looks as focused as ever on the job ahead of him, rallying early to put Young down for a near fall after his signature Leg Lariat. Young is able to assert himself - much the stalwart of Team Jarrett, what he lacks in technique and class he tries to make up for with determination and he grinds Killings down with a combination of well-placed strikes and tight holds.

 

But ‘The Truth’ is different class to this opponent, getting his second wind with the help of our Alabama faithful in attendance before locking up a comprehensive victory with the Truth and Consequences.

As Slick Johnson raises the hand of
Ron Killings
in victory, his theme song is prematurely ended by the protestations of
BG James
, who we hear before we see because he’s shooting his mouth even before he emerges from the tunnel.

 

 

 

 

 

Wy40bV5.jpg

 

He hopes that Killings enjoyed his little getaway last week, he hears that North Carolina is nice this time of the year but business is business. He heard everything that ‘The Truth’ had to say, it’s a shame he didn’t care about the 3Live Kru when he had the opportunity to help save it. As for the meeting with Commissioner Piper, that sounds like hogwash because he knows that Killings only cares about himself at the moment.

 

”How ‘bout I give ya a little bit of notice? If you’re not busy at Genesis, why don’t we settle this grudge in there?”
, James challenges, pointing to the ring.

 

Killings asks for a microphone from JB and responds that he doesn’t see any other way of sorting this out provided BG James has beef with him. But after he gets GOT, they better be able to put all of this bull-shizzle behind them for good!

Non Title Standard Singles Match

Jerrelle Clark vs. Christopher Daniels

 

Having impressed in a handful of appearances on Xplosion, ‘Mr. 630’ is given a valuable opportunity here tonight to knock off the TNA X-Division Champion. There’s a sense that Daniels has underestimated his opponent, Clark showing off a good lucha thing by hopping onto the ropes out of an arm wringer to take down C.D. with a Hurricanrana. Daniels seeks refuge in the ropes but that just leaves him in prime position for a move we saw on Xplosion on Saturday, Clark’s signature Tiger Feint Crucifix Armbar!

 

Daniels has to survive early on and just manages to kick his shoulder out after a Rope Hung Cutter leaves him flat on his stomach. But around the five minute mark, he does turn the tide with his signature STO, not that Clark is done showing out mind you, he counters the Angels Wings into a Dragonrana for an even closer near fall.

 

jDWA57W.jpg

”That was two and seven eighths Mike! Jerrelle Clark was so close to the three!”

 

Jerrelle rushes in, caught with a picture perfect Tilt-A-Whirl Backbreaker, the impact of which seems to knock the stuffing out of him altogether. It’s a fighting effort but both the Last Rites and the Best Moonsault Ever are left unanswered with Daniels surviving a scare against the iMPACT debutant.

We suddenly jump to the Lair, joining
CM Punk
and
Julio Dinero
mid-argument. Julio is not happy that he was forgotten about several weeks ago, ambushed by Raven in the parking lot with none of The Gathering nearby. He thought it was a one off but then last week on iMPACT! he was again left to fight alone. What happened to their unity?

 

Punk responds that last week was an opportunity to get some payback on their former mentor. He and Mitchell wanted to give him as long as possible to take out his frustrations on Raven, that’s why they didn’t intervene. Dinero is not convinced by this explanation but in to frame arrives Father Mitchell himself.

 

 

 

 

 

otYsMGO.jpg

 

He tells his two students to stop fighting, for they are not enemies of one another but friends with the same ambition to avenge Raven’s mistreatment of them. He asserts that every week has been part of the plan, he doesn’t expect them to understand...

 

”Unlike me, you cannot see the bigger picture. You are too young and too naive but you will learn. Have I ever put you wrong? Everything is going exactly as I have intended it to.”

 

With Mitchell having asserted his authority, both Punk and Dinero apologise. They have put their futures in the hands of Father Mitchell and they promise to follow without question in the future.

Standard Singles Match

Don Harris vs. Monty Brown (w/ Michael Shane)

 

A great man once said that wrestling is not ballet. What he meant to say with that maxim is that this sport is not pretty nor glamorous, it’s rough around the edges and downright rugged at times. Here we have exhibit A of that, an ugly match that resembles a fight and not a particularly engaging one. These two power-packed brawlers pelt one another with their hardest strikes before Monty Brown captures an uninspiring debut victory with The Pounce.

We jump to a local bar, a relatively dim and run down little joint, where broadcast journalist
Scott Hudson
finds
Chris Harris
and
James Storm
in their element. He tells them of Monty Brown’s victory just now before asking about last week’s match and the aftermath. Chris Harris pipes up that if Sonny Siaki wants to join up with those stupid boys and start wearing patterned shirts and French loafers then that’s just fine by him.
”Line ‘em up, we’ll keep them knocking ‘em down.”

 

Hudson asks next about the motives of The New Franchise, why would they interfere in their match? The ‘Cowboy’ thinks it’s obvious why - them boys are running scared! They know that when AMW come for their shot, there’s nothing that Douglas & Shane can do.
“You can buy all the time you want, eventually you’ll have to face us and you’ll be sorry ‘bout your damn luck!”

Standard Singles Match

Sting vs. Johnny Swinger (w/ Glenn Gilbertti)

 

In the wake of last week’s match announcement for Genesis, Tenay explains that Swinger was given this match by Commissioner Piper but questions his loyalty to Team Jarrett after his friend Simon Diamond attacked Gilbertti on Xplosion. Any question of whether Swinger is ready to win this match is extinguished almost immediately and he does manage to take the fight to Sting early on, albeit with a little help from G.G. at ringside. The Swinger Stinger gets a near fall and he plants his opponent with The Shaft after Sting finds only turnbuckle on the Stinger Splash.

 

However, it’s only a matter of time until showtime arrives and the Stinger finds his lane, peppering Swinger with overhand rights before the one-handed bulldog. Despite Gilbertti’s outrage at ringside, all he can do is watch the Stinger Splash connect this time and spot Swinger’s hand slamming the canvas in submission once he’s trapped in the Scorpion Deathlock.

With Gilbertti helping Swinger from the ring,
Sting
has his hand raised in victory by Rudy Charles. He brings out his signature howl and climbs the second turnbuckle on each side of the arena, letting the fans get a good look at ‘The Icon’.

 

 

 

7vDTmWQ.jpg

”We could be looking at the first ever TNA World Heavyweight Champion right here Don!”

 

 

 

 

 

JgUevKW.jpgZJvIthU.jpgyq8yeeK.jpg8fZamDv.jpg

 

But our views are diverted away from the Stinger and towards the entrance tunnel where the rest of Team Jarrett emerge.
Jeff Jarrett, Don Callis, David Young
and
Kid Kash
stroll down to ringside, stopping just short at the end of the entrance tunnel.

 

 

 

 

 

SSrDjpB.jpgiyKJPg5.jpg

 

Because
Glenn Gilbertti
and
Johnny Swinger
have entered on the opposite end of the ring and have jumped Sting from behind! Rather than falling down, Sting backs into the corner and fights as well as he can, even repelling the assault as he drops Gilbertti with an uppercut. He hammer throws Swinger to the opposite corner before hitting him with a Stinger Splash - again!

 

However, he turns around right into the rest of Team Jarrett entering the ring to launch their ambush. Soon, the numbers game is too much. Jarrett, Kash, Young and Gilbertti start stomping a mudhole into him and even Callis gets in a few cheap shots for good measure. After a short celebration to bask in their handiwork, Double J orders the group to bring a weary Sting back to his feet. This is so he can put an exclamation mark on their assault, hitting The Stroke.

 

 

 

jDWA57W.jpg

“Maybe you were wrong Mike, perhaps now we’re looking at the first ever TNA World Heavyweight Champion!”

 

Don West’s simple prophetic remark sees us out, Team Jarrett standing tall over the Stinger as we fade to black.

Kenny King vs. Kid Kash

James Mitchell joins us on commentary this week with Diamond taking his leave after his defection from Team Jarrett. He asks Hudson about Kid Kash, why he doesn’t wrestle more often for such an accomplished talent? Is Team Jarrett serving his interests or is he serving theirs? He could do a lot better...

 

For a journalist Hudson has surprisingly little to say on the matter, maybe he doesn’t want to attract any undue attention. Nonetheless, Kash finds young Kenny King to be easy pickings here and puts him away with the Dead Level.

In a video of dueling promos…

Glenn Gilbertti
boasts about being right all along. Simon Diamond never was loyal to Team Jarrett and only ever interested in himself. He showed his true colours when he attacked G.G. and as far as he’s concerned, Team Jarrett will win more and more matches without a traitor like Diamond pretending to be one of them.

 

Simon Diamond
accuses Gilbertti of having played him against the team, all along it’s been obvious to him that Gilbertti wants to be Double J’s favourite, his personal lapdog. He tells Swinger to make the right decision and join him outside Team Jarrett, reminding him that they were once tag team champions before they were doing Double J’s dirty work.

<div style="padding: 20px; border: 2px solid #000000; margin:15px;background: #dddddd; max-width:100%;";">

Chris Sabin vs. Kenny Omega

Hudson explains that Omega comes to us from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and is heavily influenced by video games such as Final Fantasy and Street Fighter. A reductive introduction perhaps but there’s clearly something there to suggest he has a future, impressing even James Mitchell with his physical strike-based offence. But Sabin one-ups him with a picture perfect Enzuigiri and the Cradle Shock lands the W for the former TNA X-Division Champion.

Chris Harris (w/ James Storm) vs. Adam Jacobs

Jacobs comes to us from the South East independent scene and has been seen most prominently working for Bill Behrens’s NWA Wildside. Hudson brings up that he’s wrestled AJ Styles several times before and once competed for the TNA X-Division Championship on the independent scene. He gives a decent account here but Harris is pretty dominant, catching his smaller opponent with an authoritative Powerslam before putting this one to bed with the Catatonic.

Jerry Lynn vs. Alex Shelley

Before James Mitchell can get any ideas of bringing Shelley into his unit,
Scott D’Amore
joins us on commentary and mentions that Shelley is a BCW wrestler, an American that has made his career in Canada because the United States doesn’t know a talent when they see one! Be that as it may, Shelley’s game is not quite as refined as his opponent’s here and though this is a decent technical wrestling match, Jerry Lynn gets the better of the Motor City native and puts him down with the Cradle Piledriver.

Jeremy Borash catches up with Sonny Siaki…

But starts out by saying that Siaki has joined The New Franchise only to be corrected. He and Ekmo have not joined the group, they are merely helping them with their little AMW problem. Once they sort out the ‘Wildcat’ and the ‘Cowboy’ they’ll be first in line for a title shot, that’s the agreement and he sees no reason to doubt the integrity of a man like Shane Douglas. On Wednesday, Siaki and Ekmo will show America’s Most Wanted the Siakalypse and they will never be a threat to the NWA World Tag Team Championships ever again.

Ron Killings vs. Kevin Northcutt

Hudson announces that the opening match of iMPACT! on Wednesday will feature Ron Killings teaming up with BG James to take on Tyler Bateman and Kevin Northcutt. Hence it being no surprise that
Tyler Bateman
comes down to observe his tag team partner to be, seeing how he fares against his opponent from last week’s Xplosion.

 

Northcutt has been out in the cold ever since he was fired from Team Jarrett and it’s obvious he lacks the confidence and the momentum to make a dent here. He does have moments of dominance thanks to his size and power and Mitchell ponders about some untapped potential there but ‘The Truth’ hits the Flying Japapeno and Bateman observes the 450 Splash that picks up the 1-2-3.
