Dot Net reader Michael Trento attended the TNA Impact Wrestling television taping in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania on Wednesday and passed along the following report. These matches will air on future episodes of TNA Impact Wrestling, which airs Tuesday nights on Pop TV. Refresh the page for the latest updates.
There were roughly 500 fans in attendance.
1. Rockstar Spud and Mahabali Shera defeated Aiden O’Shea and Grado. O’Shea is the repackaged Jay Bradley. This may have been a dark match…
EC3 came out to cut a promo and spoke about doubters and how he proved them wrong. He said the only person who didn’t doubt him is Tyrus. EC3 mentioned that if Tyrus wants a match he can have one anytime. Tyrus started to talk, but EC3 cut him off. Jeff Hardy came out in wrestling gear. Jeff told EC3 that he proved he’s the best wrestler in the world. Hardy gave him a doctors note that said he is cleared to wrestle and challenged EC3 to a title match. EC3 denied Hardy and said he has to start at the bottom. EC3 brought out a wrestler who wore a lucha mask. It sounded like they called the masked wrestler Shin-Ron.
2. Jeff Hardy defeated a masked wrestler. Hardy won with the Twist of Fate.
The Dollhouse came out with Awesome Kong and challenge Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne to a match.
3. Awesome Kong and Jade defeated Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne in a street fight. This was the best match of the night thus far.
The production crew set up kegs, coolers, and beer bottles for a Beer Money promo. James Storm and Bobby Roode delivered a beer bash promo that was interrupted by Eric Young and Bram.
4. Eric Young beat Bobby Rhoode to win the KOTM Title. Good match nothing spectacular…
Mr. Anderson hosted a talk segment called “Huhh?” His guests were Matt Hardy and his wife Reby and their son Maxell. Anderson is just plain terrible on the mic at this point and I really hate to be negative. Anderson is calling Matt out for choking in the World Title Series. Anderson played the heel and asked Reby if she needs Valium, Xanex, or other pills. Hardy said he will make an offer to EC3 an offer he just can’t refuse tonight. Just straight terrible segment that should just be cut from the tapings…
Drew Galloway cut a promo about Kurt Angle saying what an honor it is to wrestle him…
5. The Wolves and Tigre uno beat Jessie Godderz, DJ Z, and Eli Drake. DJ Z turned on his partners after they wouldn’t tag him into the match…
6. Kurt Angle beat Drew Galloway. Easily the best match of the night. The crowd loved it with lots of “this is awesome” chants…
Xplosion Taping
1. Mike Bennett beat Mandrews. Up next, they are taping matches for One Night Only pay-per-views…
One Night Only PPV Taping
1. Eric Young beat Chris Melendez. 100 people or so have already left…
2. Jessie Godderz beat Robbie E. Not good at all.
3. Mr. Anderson beat Bram. This concluded the taping.
