TNA Impact

-Commentators:  Mike Tenay & Taz.
-Rhino & Ethan Carter III(w/ Rockstar Spud) d. Bully Ray & Tommy Dreamer when Spud distracted Dreamer and EC3 rolled him up for the pin.
-X-Division Title Gauntlet For The Gold.  The first five entries were Austin Aries(C), Tag Team Champion Eddie Edwards, Manik, Tag Team Champion Davey Richards, and D.J. Shiima Xion.  Manik took Ion and himself out of the match with a flying rana off the second rope.  The next two entries were Crazzy Steve and Tigre Uno; Steve eliminated Tigre Uno but the Wolves double-teamed Steve until Davey was able to send him to the floor.  Seiya Senada was the final entry and managed to eliminate Eddie and then Davey.  The final sequence saw Aries get the win with the brainbuster to retain his title.
-Eric Young & Bobby Roode d. Montel Vontavious Porter & Kenny King by DQ when M.V.P. hit Roode with one of his crutches.
-Madison Rayne d. Brittany Garrett in a no-DQ-no-countout match after a Barbie Crusher.
-Bobby Lashley d. Jeff Hardy to retain the Heavyweight Title; the swanton bomb only got a two-count, so Hardy set up Lashley on the metal steps outside the ring and tried another top-rope swanton.  Lashley avoided the move and Hardy crash-landed on the steps...after that, Lashley got Hardy back in the ring and finished him off with the spear.
-Dixie Carter(w/ Rhino, EC3, & Spud) made an appearance in the final segment...and that brought out Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer.  Ray & Dreamer nearly set up Dixie for the superbomb through the table but EC3 hit Dreamer with a low blow and Dixie's crew got her over the guardrail to safety.  However, Ethan ran into a returning Brother Devon on the way out...he took a vintage Whazzup Drop and then a 3-D through a table.
