TNA Impact

-Commentators:  Josh Mathews & Taz.
-The show opened with Bobby Roode, who was still carrying the Heavyweight Title belt.  He vowed to get revenge on Eric Young and then called the champion Bobby Lashley to the ring to return his belt.  Roode told Lashley that he was owed a rematch and wanted it tonight...but Austin Aries made his entrance with his Feast Or Fired briefcase in hand.  He was followed by Montel Vontavious Porter who wanted his own title shot...Lashley said he'd fight all three of them in a four-corner title match.
-Taryn Terrell won a triple threat match with Gail Kim and Madison Rayne to retain the Women's Title when she pinned Rayne after the Diamond Cutter (5:57).
-Tommy Dreamer called out Eric Young for turning his back on Bobby Roode...he warned him to not burn his bridges with friends or the fans.  Young wasn't interested in Dreamer's message, but Dreamer asked Young if he had even ASKED for the title shot that he felt Roode owed to him.  That led to EY hitting Dreamer with a cheapshot and dropping him with the piledriver...he struck the timekeeper and brought in a chair, but Roode arrived to run him off.
-Brutus Magnus met with Bram Cameron at a bar to work out their issues...Magnus says his Feast Or Fired briefcase benefits them both since it's for a Tag Team Title shot.  Magnus said that Bram needs to get his temper in check before it derails his career again...and Magnus has a family to support nowadays.  Bram seemed to calm down and they talked things out...but then Bram attacked Magnus in a secluded section of the bar.
-Jeff Hardy d. Tag Team Champion Abyss in a Monster's Ball Match; the two brawled in the backstage area before the match officially started in the ring.  The rest of The Revolution(James Storm, The Great Senada, Manik, & Koya Sheba) got involved, but Matt Hardy assisted his brother with a kendo stick and The American Wolves(Davey Richards & Eddie Edwards) ran out to help as well.  Jeff sunset-bombed Abyss off the turnbuckles onto thumbtacks, then finished with the swanton bomb (9:10).
-Rockstar Spud & Mark Andrews d. The Bro Mans(Robbie Eckos & Jessie Godderz)(w/ D.J. Shiima Xion, Angelina Love, Ethan Carter III, & Tyrus Clay); Spud hit the Acid Drop on Robbie E and Andrews got the pin after a shooting star press (2:35).  Tyrus attacked Spud and Andrews after the match while EC3 bad-mouthed the pair, setting up a handicap match at Lockdown next week.
-Bobby Lashley won a four-corner match with Bobby Roode, Montel Vontavious Porter, and Austin Aries to retain the Heavyweight Title when he pinned Aries after the spear (8:54 aired).  Eric Young had pulled Roode out of the ring and attacked him with a chair to take him out of the match.  Samoa Joe and Kenny King joined M.V.P. and Young in attacking everyone after the match...Kurt Angle and Phil Gunner ran off the B.D.C.
-After the match, Roode challenged Young to face him in the cage at Lockdown.  Angle said he had officially recruited Gunner for his team...Aries volunteered his services as well.  Angle extended the invitation for Lashley to join his team...Lashley turned him down and left the ring.
-Next week on the Lockdown edition of Impact:  Team Angle vs. Beat Down Clan in Lethal Lockdown, Roode vs. Young, Revolution vs. Hardys for the Tag Team Titles, Spud & Andrews vs. Tyrus, and Amazing Kong vs. Jessicka Havok.
