# It was fun while it lasted. I wish it would have went longer because they were having a really good match. They really need to have Jackie wrestle more.
RATING: *¾

-Lauren is with Cage and Rhino. She asks about the match tonight, and Cage says he knows all about the glass table. He’s the champ, that’s what he does. He hasn’t forgotten the hours in the hospital after going through the glass table. He says they are impressive, and they are only the greatest tag team because he went singles. He knows that they want to take Cage and Rhino out before they become the best. It’s like this, tonight they have another chance to end them. Do him a favor, let him know how it works out for them. Rhino says if they want to end them and make them bleed, well, he and Cage are in. Ask yourselves what will you do when he tears you in half with the GORE through a glass table. What will you do then?

-We are back from commercial and JB is with Val. Super Eric is here and says he solved the case. He says Dutt stole it and if she finds him she’ll find the ring.

Curry Man vs. Sonjay Dutt

Dutt tries a boot, fails but then takes Curry Man down and walks on his back. Curry Man returns the favor, hip toss and a slam by Curry Man. Curry Man does the robot, plays dead a she stands there and then gets an arm drag. Dutt begs off, slams Curry Man to the corner and Val comes out to ringside. She yells at Dutt, who gets a back breaker on Curry Man. He denies it, misses a charge to the corner and this allows Curry Man to get the ass charge. Dutt rakes the eyes and gets a bulldog to the corner. 619 by Dutt and then gets the cover with the ropes and wins.

Winner: Sonjay Dutt @ 2:25 via pin
# A couple minutes of action to get to the angle that no one cares about.
RATING: BLAH

-After the match he low blows Curry Man and leaves Val in the ring. Sharky is out and beats down Dutt. He tosses him back in the ring but takes a stun gun off the ropes. Super Eric is out and press slams Dutt. He finds the ring in the tights of Dutt and returns it to Val. Dutt says this is a misunderstanding, and says Val dropped the ring in the hospital. He had it under his pillow every night, he thought she left it for him. She wants to leave Jay for him. Apparently it was wishful thinking on his part, but he cares about her. He’s happy she got the ring back and they hug.

-Lauren is with Ray, Devon and Beer Money. She asks what happened to an old fashioned wrestling match and he says it is boring, like sleeping with her. Ray promises that they will win tonight. They are the greatest tag team and Beer Money is the future. They will beat the dog crap out of LAX, Cage and Rhino. They fight, brawl and beat people up. They drink, fight and fuck. Rhino has an “X” on his back and he will go through a glass table tonight. Storm says they beat people up and the others get beat up. They are the future champions and they promise to hurt their opponents, sorry about your damn luck.

-We get a video package for Sheik Abdul Bashir. He talks about our selfish need for oil. America sucks.

RATING: **½

-After the match they all shake with Jay, but Shelley refuses to shake with Creed and leaves pissed off.

Karen’s Angle
Frank Trigg is her guest. He mentions that she is cheating on Kurt. They play nice, and Trigg discusses starting in MMA, and he has a supportive wife who never wanted to be on TV. He has known Kurt before she did. Trigg says Kurt is great, but maybe he changed since she banged AJ. She gets flustered and wants to end the interview. She slaps him and Trigg breaks the Phi Delta Slam guy’s nose as he tried to stop it and it ends. DRAMA. Or not.

He won’t be responsible to what he does. He made AJ and AJ slept with his wife in return. He will come at AJ like he never has before. He is a gold medallist, AJ spit in his face, which is like spitting in the face of the troops defending out country. THE PAIN GAME STARTS TONIGHT!

-The Beautiful People harass Lauren and threaten to bag her. They dismiss her and say that they are beauty and the beast. This is QUEEN KONG and at Hard Justice, they will have to call the military to stop the carnage. Kong is an animal that loves Chinese, White Bread and obnoxious BEOTCHES. They promise to make victims out of Kim, ODB and Taylor.

RATING: **¼

-After the match Devine brings Ray a kendo stick and he wipes out the good guys. 3D on Hernandez! Beer Money hits the DUI (Powerbomb/neck breaker combo) on Cage! Devon and Devine bring out the glass table, set it up and this allows Beer Money to DOUBLE POWERBOMB Cide through the table! 3D does NOT look happy, since they wanted to take out Rhino.

-Homicide has been taken to a local hospital. Glass tables will do that.

Oh lord why do we have to see Salinas in the ring? Salinas wears some sweet short shorts this evening. Kong knocks her down, KONG BOMB and that is all.

Kong grabs Salinas, but before she can use it Gail, Wilde and ODB are out and they al brawl. Wilde escapes the Kong Bomb, gets dropkicks to Kong and then up top…and is killed by a clothesline. Kong goes for the bomb on the chair, but Abyss is out to make the save. Kong and Abyss face off, and Saeed backs Kong off. I got $50 on Kong. Saeed bitches at Abyss and then slaps him. Abyss grabs the chair, Saeed runs and Security is out to take the chair. BLACK HOLE SLAM FOR YOU MY FRIEND!

Who the hell asked for Starship Troopers III?

-JB is with Booker and Sharmell in the PIMP locker room. They talk about the main event as well as the PPV Sunday. JB asks if Booker will be the champion next week. He tells Jeremiah that Joe can’t beat me, he told us all that. He also proved it at Victory Road. Joe punished him a lot, but he didn’t beat Booker. He sits here as THE TNA World Champion. And tonight, gauntlet match, they will pick up where they left off and he will one up Joe tonight. He came to TNA to prove that he is the best. JB asks about Sting, and Booker says Sting wouldn’t miss it for anything. The real batman will show up tonight and at the PPV. They all drink champagne. See, TNA doesn’t have a wellness policy.

-Tenay and West run down the Hard Justice Card again:

* The Beautiful People and Awesome Kong vs. Taylor Wilde, Gail Kim and ODB

* TNA X-Division Title Match: Petey Williams © vs. Consequences Creed
* TNA Tag Team Title Match: LAX © vs. Beer Money
* TNA World Title Six Sides of Steel Weapons Filled Cage Match: Samoa Joe © vs. Booker T

-Lauren is with Joe, and tells him what Booker just said. Joe then asks why Sting had to blindside him these past three weeks? Sting is no ICON, he is a coward. And when he gets his hand son him he will turn the white makeup red. Joe then says he didn’t go far enough at Victory Road. He was merciful. But at Hard Justice he is coming for his belt, and there is nothing Booker can do about it.

-We get a video package of “Sting’s Actions.”

-JB is with AJ. In regards to Kurt Angle, AJ says Angle may be focused on him and that’s fine. But turning a nobody into a somebody? AJ helped build this company 6-years ago. If anything, it was Angle that jumped on the bandwagon and AJ made friends with him. As far as Karen goes, he looked him in the eyes and denied it. There is nothing else he can do, other than that. And the comparing himself to troops? No, Angle is a punk who got lucky. At the PPV bring Tomko, Trigg and anyone else, because he will be the last man standing.

-JB is the ring announcer for the 8-Man Weapons Filled Gauntlet Match. 2-men will start, and then 2-minutes later 2-more men will enter. Over the top rope rules, until the final two men and then it is pin or submission. Each man may bring a weapon of his choice with them to the ring.

They counter each other and Angle finally catapults AJ into the chair. BG James and Kip James are next. They had a chair and a road sign. They brawl on the floor and BG is slammed to the barricade.

Winner: Samoa Joe @ 14:05 via pin
# Not bad really, Angle gutted through with the gusher and looked good overall. Joe got to look dominant with the win, but it was very hectic. The ending played off of the weeks of Joe/Booker/Sting stuff and Angle and AJ got their time, hyping their match at the PPV.
RATING: **

-Joe calls out Booker and says that at Hard Justice the champ will come for his belt. After he is down with Booker, STING, you’re next. Sting’s music hits, the lights go down and we see Sting in the rafters.

-We get a highlight video with music from F.I.L.T.H.E.E.

-End scene…

“

Last week, a video aired on “iMPACT!” featuring Sheik Abdul Bashir talking candidly about the troubles facing the United States. This week, members of TNA’s Television Production staff accompanied Bashir to film his latest video rant - and the TNA newcomer ended up being investigated by Homeland Security in the process! More details on this story will be posted on TNAwrestling.com on Thursday afternoon.

-Booker and Sharmell are in the PIMP locker room, and promise Samoa Joe a tour of his six sides of steel later tonight. Booker will also invite a special friend tonight, JB asks if it is Sting and Booker doesn’t say anything. Booker and Sharmell drink champagne, and kick JB out. HIT THE BRICKS LOSER!

-The opening video package is footage from the TNA Video game, no wacky title of the week.

-The ring intros are using some video game footage as well. Not a bad way to hype the video game.

RATING: **½

-Cage grabs the mic and is pissed that they got screwed again. He challenges them to a tag match at Hard Justice, in their backyard in a New Jersey Street Fight. Bring anything you want!

# Not bad at all with some fun spots, but too short and ultimately forgettable.
RATING: *½

-Lethal grabs the mic and calls Val into the ring. He wants to propose to her again and starts too, but her ring is gone. She lost it. Lethal is PISSED now and rightfully so. He can take a hint, throws down the mic and leaves.

-TO THE BACK and JB is with Lance Smith from CMT. They talk about their jobs and the people they get to work with and Super Eric is here. Super Eric has a brain flash and says if they find the ring, they save the love. Yeah.

-JB is with Joe that just arrived. He tells Joe about Booker and the Six Sides of Steel tour. Joe prays it is a party of three, bring Sting, because if they are in the cage, only he will walk out.

-We get a video package for Joe, Booker and Sting.

-Don and Mike discuss the situation involving the three men and say they need to hear from Sting.

-JB is with Nash. Nash says he will talk to Joe, ad they go and find him. Joe says Booker is punking him out, and then Sting is always involved. He is upset, and Nash asks if it is Sting for sure. Joe knows it was Sting, and Nash says he is there to even the score. But if they are going to war, they need a plan. Joe says they will do it Nash’s way.

A TOUR OF THE SIX SIDES OF WEAPON FILLED STEEL
Booker makes his way to the cage. He says that this is his six sides of steel with weapons! Tables, Ladders, Chairs, Trashcans, Kendo Sticks and the like. He is a gentleman and will invite Joe out to his six sides of steel, and that He is the man up in this beast. He promises that the lights will not go out.

Joe makes his way to the cage. Joe says Booker is mistaken, but he will join Booker for the tour. But if he gets in he is beating the living hell out of Booker’s ass. The lights will go out, for Booker. Joe enters the cage and Booker asks him to wait. Booker just wants to give a tour, that’s all. Booker says that Joe doesn’t have any weapons like a punk ass sucka! Plus he has no backup. Joe assures Booker he has backup and has a police baton. Nash is out and holds the cage door shut. Booker says it’s like that huh? Joe attacks Booker and beats him down with the baton and lays out Booker. He then tosses him to the cage and Sharmell is out to beg Joe to stop. Nash holds the door shut and then carries her away. A bat drops from the ceiling and Booker LEVELS Joe as Tenay and West assume it is Sting that did it. Booker mouths “Thank You Sting.” DAMN YOU STING!

-We get another video package for Sheik Abdul Bashir. He hates the homeless.

-AJ comes to the ring and after a commercial he has the mic. He calls out Sting, and says he know she is there. He has been taking up for Sting for three whole weeks and has defended him. The people want to know what is up with Sting. The wrestlers want to know what is up and HE wants to know. AJ says there is a reason for his actions, but how it is that his bat keeps knocking Joe out? Is it a coincidence? The first time sure, second maybe. The third time doubtful. Joe is one of the good guys, and now Sting hides. Is it guilt? AJ says Sting is a coward. The lights are out, Sting’s music plays and Angle is there when the lights come back and he gets the Angle slam! Angle is furious and stalks AJ, and as AJ gets to his feet he gets another Angle slam on him. Angle then demands that AJ gets up, stalks him again and AJ pulls himself up only to take a third Angle slam.

-TO THE BACK and JB is with the Beautiful People. Sharky and Curry Man are there, searching for the ring. Sharky calls Love an ignorant slut, and he wants Val’s ring. He wants to do a full body cavity search. Curry Man calms the situation, and then tries to get some action. He fails. Sharky promises to stop fishing hole sin them if he discovers that they are lying. Curry Man tries for some ass again and fails. They tease their secret, and as JB asks who “she” is they blow him off, which is the most action he has gotten like, ever.

-Lauren is with Petey Williams and Rhaka Khan. Petey says he prepared the same way he always does. He then says Creed is just another challenger, and watches too many comic book movies. Lauren says Petey is taking Creed lightly, and Petey says he beat no one and dances around like a fool. Petey then says to be someone in this business, you have to do something first. And he hasn’t done a damn thing. Petey is the definition of definition, yeah!

# Not bad at all. Creed overcame the odds and took the win from the over confident Petey. They showed some good chemistry, which makes me think that they can have a good PPV match.
RATING: **

-JB is with the Prince Justice Brotherhood and they made the mistake of accusing LAX of stealing the ring. Sharky gets in Salina’s face, and then Curry Man says he speaks their language. He flashes his gang symbol, “RIVE AND DIE LAX, DIS MY GANG SIGN, BRAT, BRAT, BRAT!” and asks for the ring, and Cide tells them to get to steppin before they make them a happy kids meal. Super Eric says there is a break in the case and they leave.

-Lauren is with AJ. He says he doesn’t know what Sting is up to, and when Sting comes out of hiding, he will be there. AJ then says if Angle wants to lay him out, they can do it at Hard Justice in a last man standing match, and he promises that Angle will not get back up.

-Jim Cornette joins commentary to hype Hard Justice.

KAREN’S ANGLE
In 2006 Kaz came back to TNA. He knew he had the talent and that he would make things happen. Defeating Cage in a ladder match was huge and he will remember it forever. They then discuss Victory Road and him losing the Ultimate X match. He let TNA down, and it is hard to live with. Kaz says it is better to burn out than fade away. He wanted to do this in the Impact Zone, but prior to the interview he asked for his release, as of the end of this interview. He made the choice to walk away, to burn out, and he has to see what’s out there for him. He thanks all the guys, the fans and says he has to focus on him and has to focus on himself. He has to find his smile. Karen hugs him. After the interview Tomko was there to scare Karen. She screams for help.

-Lauren is with Nash. He has known Sting since 1990 and he has seen this side before, on the opposite side and it is not a pretty sight. Something pissed him off. Joe is there all EMO and says He is pissed off. He will go to the rafters, drag Sting down and break every bone in his body. Nash says this is a bad plan.

Matt Morgan vs. Sal Rinauro

Poor Sal. He tries to attack at the bell, that would be a bad idea. HELLEVATOR KILLS Rinauro and that is all.

Winner: Matt Morgan @ 1:00 via pin
30

-Morgan gets on the mic and calls out Tomko. If he thinks he is a bad ass threatening women, then come out here and show the Blueprint who the real bad ass in TNA is. He then says Tomko’s head is up Angle’s ass. This brings out Tomko, we see his video game entrance, which is funny because he is now gone from the company. They stand off, Morgan is even bigger than Tomko. Security comes out and Tomko and Morgan brawl. Security breaks it up for a bit, but they keep fighting and Morgan nails the bicycle kick, and then gets the HELLEVATOR! Morgan stands tall, peace Tomko.

-JB is with the Prince Justice Brotherhood. Eric watched last week’s show! Sonjay stole the ring last week. Eric says they will deal with it next week.

-Team 3D is with Beer Money and they all celebrate. Next week they will team together, they are now the best of friends because they are all scumbags. Ray says that he and Devon ruined the chances of Cage and Rhino, and next week they take out LAX, Cage and Rhino. Someone will go through a table, TESTIFY, Sorry About Your Damn Luck.

-ROUGH CUTS with Taylor Wilde is next. They even get some comments from Bill DeMott. Some of the Knockouts weren’t happy about her winning, and Wilde knows she has a target on her back.

The Beautiful People (Angelina Love and Velvet Sky) vs. Gail Kim and Taylor Wilde

Sky and Wilde to begin. Sky opts to attack her from behind, but takes leg kicks and that causes Sky to run away and tag in Love. Love and Wilde stand off in a DEEP SOUTH SPECIAL, they shove each other and Wilde lands forearm shots. Off the ropes and Wilde goes lucha with the roll and arm drag. Tag to Kim and she works the arm of Love. A whip and Kim floats over, Japanese arm drag and as she goes for the necktie Love escapes, but Kim gets a dropkick. Kim goes for the lucha arm drag up the ropes, but Sky tosses her to the floor. Sky tosses her backing as we head to a commercial @ 2:25.

Joe walks to the rafters.

Back from commercial @ 5:45 with Sky covering Kim for 2. Tag to Love, snap mare and Love gets a basement dropkick and cover for 2. Love slams Kim down by the hair, and then does it again. Love tries to rip off the nose of Kim, Wilde tries to help but that allows Love to lay the boots to Kim. Love covers for a close 2. Love misses a bicycle kick, lung blower by Kim and BOTH ladies are down. Tags to Wilde and Sky, Wilde runs wild (HAR HAR HAR) and then gets a northern lights suplex on Sky for 2. All four ladies in the ring now, Kim and Wilde with corner mounted punches but Kim is tossed to the floor. Love levels Wilde with a kick and Sky covers for 2. Off the ropes, Wilde tries a sunset flip and Kim is in late to dropkick the Beautiful People, and Wilde gets the pin.

Winners: Wilde and Kim @ 9:15 via pin
# I appreciate them main eventing with the ladies, but Sky holds everyone down and some things just didn’t click. Not “BAD” really, just there.
RATING: *½

-The Beautiful People attack after the bell, all four ladies brawl and KONG IS BACK! Kim attacks her, as does Wilde but KONG KILLS! The crowd chants for ODB as Kong gets the KONG BOMB on Kim! The Beautiful People hold Wilde down and make her watch. KONG BOMB on Wilde! ODB is out now, the Beautiful People bail and she stands off with Kong. Roxxi is out as well with a chair and Kong bails as well. Traci Brooks is also out to watch on.

-We see Joe searching for Sting. He is in the rafters and yells for Sting. There is a bird up there, I don’t think that’s Sting.

-End scene…
