Impact Wrestling: One Night Only - New Beginnings - The Results

Fallah Bahh beats Evander James.

In footage from earlier today, Jimmy Jacobs admits it has been awhile since he has been in Impact, but while he was at home looking for who the next star he should be guiding is, another star was doing a talent search of her own and they both agreed she was a star. That star is "The Smoke Star" Scarlett Bordeaux, who shows up, and Jacobs proposes he do her a favor and provide a little bit of coaching prior to her television debut in the hopes that Scarlett will return the favor.

"The Smoke Show" Scarlett Bordeaux beats Christina Marie after sitting down on a Sunset Flip attempt by Christina Marie and using Jimmy Jacob's hands for leverage.

We hear from Eli Drake, who says that he can taste the Impact World Championship, that Johnny Impact has a target on his back and that he is holding the gun. He tells Johnny that he will be seeing his new logos soon as he is going to be the new World Champion and there is no other way. Eli then proposes that Johnny join him on The Facts Of Life and name all the dummies before he gives him the privilege of taking the Gravy Train and landing on his head before Eli takes the World title from him.

Desean Pratt beats KM following a low blow, then continues to attack KM until Fallah Bahh gets in the ring to make the save.

We see a video package chronicling the history between Eddie Edwards and Moose.

Backstage, Jimmy Jacobs compliments "The Smoke Show" Scarlett Bordeaux, saying there is something special that only comes around only once ever in Bordeaux and that he and Bordeaux should debut together. When it comes time to return the favor, Bordeaux tells Jimmy Jacobs that the favor was him being out in the ring with him.

We hear from Sami Callihan in footage from earlier today, and Sami says that after tonight's match, people will think that he hates him and that there is some sort of issue or bad blood. He says that he loves Rich Swann and that what he is doing tonight is out of love, for he is disappointed with Swann for turning his back on him and walking away on him. He says that if Swann does not want to be part of oVe (Sami Callihan, Jake Crist, Dave Crist), that is where he has an issue, for he is the reason Swann has a professional wrestling career. Callihan says this is Swann last time, for he is going to hurt him.

Rich Swann retains the Impact Wrestling X Division Championship against Sami Callihan.

We hear from Johnny Impact, who says that he was more than happy to meet with the fans when he heard about Eli Drake talking about how his night was going to be his night to take the Impact World Championship from him. He says that a dying breed dies for a reason, and compares Eli Drake to the dodo bird, saying that Eli Drake will learn his lesson tonight.

Arrogance of Excellence (Johnny Moran and Clutch Adams) beats South Philly's Finest (Jimmy Konway and Luca Brazzi) to become the Pennsylvania Premiere Wrestling Tag Team Champions following the distraction by manager Ryan Race and the use of a baseball bat by Miranda Vionette.

In footage from earlier today, Moose tells Eddie Edwards that today is his unlucky day, as he was having the best week of his life in South Florida only to get a phone call from Impact telling him he had a Street Fight with Eddie in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He has not forgotten what Eddie had done to him at Homecoming, and tonight, Eddie will get a very angry Moose, and Moose will show Eddie why he is a legend.

We look back on Sabu vs. Rob Van Dam at Hardcore Justice 2010 in anticipation for their tag team reunion at United We Stand on April 4th on Impact on Twitch (twitch.tv/impactwrestling).

Before the next match, Eli Drake welcomes everyone to a special edition of The Fact Of Life. He says that people do mot understand that he stands in the ring not just as a star, but as an uncrowned world champion and the last of a dying breed. Eli Drake says that tonight, the World title is on the line, and he will become the new champion. He then introduces tonight's guest - and his opponent for tonight - Johnny Impact. Eli Drake proceeds to call the crowd "a sea of dummies," and addresses Johnny's comments from earlier tonight. Johnny admits that while Eli Drake reminds him of The Rock and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and calls him "The Rock and Stone Cold's ass baby." Eli Drake then asksJohnny if he's done and if he had fun with the fans, and Johnny replies by saying that "if you live at the last house, you shouldn't throw stones." Eli Drake says that "this breed will continue to live on and on," and before he can finish his sentence, he hits Johnny Impact with a cheap shot from his microphone, starting the next match early.

Backstage, AJ Kirsch interviews Moose, who tells Johnny Impact the only reason he is Impact Wrestling World Champion is because he is flying around the world in grand style, but tonight, Johnny steps into the ring with a legend.

"The Highlander" Calder McColl beats Kaka Meng.

Backstage, AJ Kirsch interviews Tessa Blanchard, who says that she and Kiera Hogan have some history, and while Kiera is a good wrestler, person and friend, she is great, because good doesn't the job done or make someone a champion.

He also admits that while they may not be former tag team champions, oVe will need every trick in the book to beat them and that their "everything" isn't better than them. Swann says that when you step in the ring with charisma, atheltic, raw talent and a machine like Brian Cage, oVe will have to bring everything, and that everything won't match up when they know they can't handle this.

oVe (Jake and Dave Crist) beat "The Machine" Brian Cage and Rich Swann. Before the match begins, Dave Crist attacks Brian Cage with a chair to the point that Cage cannot participate in the match and has to be helped back to the back.

Impact Wrestling One Night Only: BCW 25th Anniversary - The Results

The show begins with a cold open showing footage from Border City Wrestling shows past and present, showing the many wrestling superstars who have been in the promotion over the company's history.

Before the next match, Eli Drake says he is "a man and a half," but when he looks across the ring, he sees "a guy with a facial deformity" and a "sweet little Pop Tart" and he has to wonder how Bordeaux is standing with Stone Rockwell, but Rockwell says she is looking for a little action, not a dummy, and that Bordeaux is looking for an eleven while Eli Drake and KC Spinelli are a six combined. KC Spinelli takes offense to all this and the Eli Drake references that Rockwell keeps making, and Eli Drake says that while they are a six - with KC Spinelli being a doable five - he is the one to punch Rockwell's ticket. He then hits Rockwell with a cheap shot, starting the next match.

Stone Rockwell and "The Smoke Show" Scarlett Bordeaux beat Eli Drake and KC Spinelli.



BCW pays tribute to BCW wrestlers past who are no longer with us.

Before the next match, Conrad Kennedy III takes the microphone and says that he is wearing an "Old School!" shirt to pay tribute to one of the greatest wrestler villain to ever step foot in a wrestling ring and meant so much not only to BCW but to wrestling worldwide, as well as a man that he looked up to: himself. He also says he will be winning the gauntlet match that is about to start.

Backstage, Alicia interviews "Reborn" Matt Sydal. Sydal says it is an honor and a privilege to be here, and gives thanks the wrestling gods for giving him that opportunity, as his path to enlightenment is a fortunate one and allows him to teach everyone else to open their third eye. He admits that his opponents Cody Deaner, Kongo Kong and Johnny Impact are good, but they are not as enlightened and transcended as he is and he will become BCW Heavyweight Champion.

Kiera Hogan beats Gisele Shaw.

We look back at International Incident 2005, when Jeff Jarrett beat Raven to win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.

Swinger says their opponents - D'Lo Brown, Highlander Robbie and Tommy Dreamer - may be good and amy be former BCW champions, but they are not as good as The Syndicate and nobody gets over on D'Amore. D'Amore says The Syndicate will party tonight by kicking ass.

Before the next match, RC City makes fun of David Arquette's streamers, saying they were the stupidest thing he has ever seen, then apologizes to everyone in the buidling for this match even happening as well as Arquette's existence. He says he is only teaming with Arquette because Arquette agreed to get him on a talk show - and has since not talked to anybody - and calls Arquette the most talentless human being he has ever met in his life. He tells Arquette to stay on the apron and shut his mouth, as everyone came to see RC City, the man who put "entertainment" back in "sports entertainment," not Arquette. Arquette takes the microphone and yells "It's Arquette City!" before the match begins.

Moose beats Eddie Edwards in a Windsor Street Fight. At the beginning of the match, Moose throws a fan out of the front row at Eddie Edwards before berating him for being an Eddie Edwards fan. The fan gets is Moose's way when Moose runs a lap around the ring, and Moose responds by tossing him before Eddie Edwards hits Moose with a cookie sheet and a double-team clothesline with the fan, who then climbs back into the stands afterwards. Later in the match, the referee is knocked out by an errant boot from Moose as Eddie Edwards tries to escape him at the top rope, and Eddie hits the referee with the referee to make him get up.

After that, he welcomes everyone to the show, then says he has procured only the greatest talent available on this world, and tonight, he has Moose, The Latin-American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz), Alisha Edwards and Homicide. Tonight's main event, however, will be him vs. Eddie Edwards. We then see Eli Drake outside, interviewing some tailgaters in a parking lot.

Fallah Bahh beats "The Supercop" Dick Justice. Both men show respect after the match.

Moose says it has been a long time since he has been in Binghamton, New York, and says that it is amazing how things still stay the same as "Binghamton sucks." Tonight, he wrestles KM, and KM will step in the ring with a legend and find out why he is called "Mr. Impact Wrestling."

Backstage, "The Supercop" Dick Justice says that when Impact Wrestling called him, they said they needed a stand-by wrestler. In Binghampton, however, he is no stand-by wrestler or Richard Justice; he is "The Supercop" Dick Justice. He says he had Fallah Bahh, but Fallah Bahh has to be one of the smartest men he has met in his life. Bahh may have beaten this time, but next time, justice will be served.

Eli tells Jimmy that he has something for him, and that he is bringing back Facts of Life with Jimmy Jacobs as a guest. Jimmy Jacobs accepts the invitation.

Backstage, Alisha Edwards says she was victorious tonight against Rebel and that this proves she can hang with the best in the Knockouts Division. She says that while Rebel was able to bring it, so was she, and she proved that anything is possible.

Team Tremendous (Dan Barry and Bill Carr) beat The Heavenly Bodies (Desirable Dustin and Gigolo Justin).

In footage from earlier today, Homicide tells The Latin-American Xchange (Konnan, Santana, Ortiz) that he is here, and says that they have nothing compared to The OG'z (King, Homicide, Hernandez). He says that if Konnan thinks he can play him, he's got another thing coming, and tonight, nothing is going to stop him because this is his world.

Eli Drake shows up. He says he came to Binghamton, New York with the mobile, play-at-home version of the Eli Drake Dummy Button, and with that, he is doing a live version of Facts of Life. After testing to see if the mobile version of the dummy button works, he introduces Jimmy Jacobs to the show. Jimmy Jacobs shows up, and Eli Drake wants to know what it is that made Jimmy want to be part of the show so badly. Jimmy says he always gets what he wants, but tonight, it is about what Eli Drake needs. He eels that Eli Drake has no idea what he is in for in his match against Eddie Edwards tonight. Eli Drake says that Eddie Edwards doesn't have what it takes, but Jimmy Jacobs says that Eli Drake should be more careful as Eddie will be swinging his kendo stick. Jimmy then offers his help, but Eli Drake doesn't take this too seriously and Jimmy says the only person who will be laughing at the end of the night will be Eddie Edwards. Eli Drake says that Eddie Edwards is a victim of his own ambition and has a first-classic ticket to the Gravy Ticket, and that he does not need his help.

Backstage, Santana says that if The OG'z (King, Homicide, Hernandez) thought it was a good idea to play games with The Latin-American Xchange (Konnan, Santana, Ortiz), they have anohter thing coming, as LAX have won the battle and are about to win the war.

He also gets on the microphone a third time after an arm drag from Eddie Edwards to ban arm drags in the match, and a fourth time to ban Eddie Edwards from making snow angels in the ring following a belly-to-belly suplex. Later still, Eli Drake has to ban chops, then tries to go even further only to be booted off the apron by Eddie Edwards, who then goes for a tope suicida only to get a microphone shot to the head.



Eddie Edwards beats Eli Drake. During the match, Eddie Edwards takes a fan's prosthetic leg to use it as a weapon, but Eli Drake also makes that illegal.

Channing Decker beats Clayton Gainz despite Gainz spitting a protein drink into Decker's face.

We hear from Sami Callihan, who came into the building and noticed Josh Alexander in an interview, cutting a promo about what he is going to do to him tonight. White it is Alexander's time to step into the spotlight, he is the current state of professional wrestling and is professional wrestling, and nobody can tell him differently as he creates buzz and draws crowd. He tells Alexander to get ready for this Twitter to blow up after his fifteen minutes of fame, as he is a death machine and he will be the one walking out of the steel cage tonight.

We hear from oVe (Jake and Dave Crist) backstage. Dave Crist says they are the best tag team in the world today, and if anyone disagrees, all they have to do is fight them. Jake Crist says The Desi Hit Squad (Rohit Raju and Gursinder Singh) found out first-hand why they are taking over everything.

Before the next match, Pasquale DiPapa tells the fans to show up, and that he is facing the camera because the fans are ugly and he has a lot to say.

He says that he loves what he sees and that they have more talent than anybody else in the world, and he wants to tap into all the talent that is back there.

Backstage, we hear from Phil Atlas, who has been at it for 15 years. Lately, he feels like his efforts are never being matched, that he is being overlooked and that nobody is taking him seriously. He has a whole different mindset now, and while it sounds like he is complaining, you cannot ignore hard work, passion, dedication and drive. Atlas says he lives and breathes this, and he wants his piece of the pie and he will be damned if he does not get it.

Backstage, Alicia interviews Aiden Prince. He is ready for his three-way match, and says that everyone either says he is on fire or he lost it for a few years. Before he can say much more, Ace Austin shows up, pulls out an Ace of Spaces, asks him if this is his card, then tells him to check his trunks when Prince says he never picked a card. Aiden Prince finds an Ace of Spades card in his trunks, and says he has a magic trick of his own: making Ace Austin's hopes and dreams disappear.

She also mentions that Su Yung has invoked her rematch clause and that the rematch will take place next Thursday. Blanchard says she could have just stayed at home, but that is not her style, and just like her father and grandfather, she is a fighting champion. Tonight, Gisele Shaw will have her opportunity to share the ring with her, but she will learn that while she is beautiful, talented and having a lot going for her, she is not Tessa Blanchard and she will never shine as bright as this diamond.

Tessa Blanchard retains the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Championship against Gisele Shaw.



Backstage, Alicia interviews Michael Elgin. Elgin says there is a lot of things going through his mind, but he takes pride in living in Canada, as does "The Canadian Destroyer" Petey Williams.

Tonight, it is about who the better man is, and he is putting his money down on himself.

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander beats Sami Callihan in a bloody steel cage match to face Pete Dunne for the Destiny World Wrestling Championship.



Backstage, Sami Callihan simply stares into the camera and shows the blood of Josh Alexander on his . He says that some people consider professional wrestling an athletic competition with wins and losses that focuses on who is the better performer. For him, however, it is not about that, as he makes statements differently by getting other people's blood on his hands. He does not care about wins and losses; instead, he cares about being the last man standing, as oVe can do this for as long as they want to, and he proved it tonight.

Backstage, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander says he just beat one of the greatest wrestlers int he world in a stel cage match, and he has the gash on his head to prove it. He says that he needs no weapons to get the job done, and all that he thought about what the blood going down into his eyes, as all it took was three seconds to get his shot at Pete Dunne.

Madison Rayne beats KC Spinelli.

We hear from Stone Rockwell, who says that there are very few things he detests on his travels and that one of them is a bully. He says that hazers and the fraternities are two of the worst culprits he knowsl Tonight, he has recruited a friend from the Philippines who resembles a teddy bear: Fallah Bahh. Tonight, they will put an end to bullying.

Before the next match, Stone Rockwell introduces himself and Fallah Bahh, but Bahh stops him before Rockwell asks if anyone said "adventure." Before they can compromise, The Fraternity (Trent Gibson and Channing Decker) attack from behind, but Rockwell and Fallah Bahh get the upper hand. They then compromise, with Rockwell saying "adventure" after Bahh "bahhs" the rest of the question.

Stone Rockwell and Fallah Bahh beat The Fraternity (Trent Gibson and Channing Decker).

Eddie Edwards tells Trevor Lee they've done this before, but the difference is that Trevor Lee will be seeing a different Eddie Edwards and that it is all about him. Tonight, Trevor Lee will discover this first-hand.

Also during the match, the crowd chants consists of "Holy chips!," a "Locos Tacos Burritos" chant to the tune of Seven Nation Army, and "We want popcorn!"



Rich Swann says he has known Austin Aries for a while, and tonight isa huge opportunity for him.

Su Yung retains the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Championship against Katarina.

We see a recording from Sami Callihan.

Sami Callihan beats Josh Alexander.



Austin Aries says Rich Swann may be a newcomer to Impact, but he is not a newcomer to him, as many years back, a young Rich Swann got in the ring with him in New York City and they tore the roof down. Now Rich is not that kid anymore, and the smile and exuberance he once had is gone, because much like himself, he has had people make assumptions about him and had public perception cost him his career and his life. When he heard he was coming to Impact, he could not have been happier, as this is the place where people have become miscasts and misfits who have been counted out and bet against redeem themselves and prove they are what they know they are. Now that Swann is in Impact, he sees that the smile and exuberance has returned, which is why it will hurt him so much when he has to crush it, as he cannot and will not let him take the Impact Wrestling World Champion. He says it will be just a bump in the road, but a painful bump nevertheless.

Austin Aries retains the Impact Wrestling World Championship against Rich Swann with the Last Chancery after dodging a 450 splash from the top rope.



Before the next match, Eli Drake says he has been in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada one time, and after that one time, it became the town that Eli Drake built. Now, the town's adopted son is here. He talks about about somebody totaled his car and he needed a rental car to get here, then talks about how he sees 40-year-old virgins and basement dwellers in the crowd. He says they can bring Pentagon Jr. and Moose down here, but they do not have enough tingle in their loins to beat him in the ring.

Pentagon Jr. beats Eli Drake and Moose in a three-way match.

He also tells Sami Callihan not to worry, as he is always in the back of his mind.

He then goes on to mock Austin Aries before saying a carnivore like him runs everything in the back and not a vegan like Austin Aries.

Rosemary says that with this being One Night Only, this may be either the one night she shows mercy or the one night only that KC Spinelli has left on Earth.

Rosemary beats KC Spinelli.

He says he is focused on traveling the world and beating the best the world has to offer. Tonight, the best comes to him, and despite his respect for El Hijo del Fantasma and what he can do, he will rip him apart and beat him down like he will anybody who comes into the ring. He is on a quest o win titles, and Fantasma is in his way to take what is rightfully his.

Jeremy Borash introduces everyone to the show, and announces that Eli Drake, Lashley and Alberto El Patron will be here tonight.

Trevor Lee says he is glad that tonight is a One Night Only event, because this is the only time you will see him in Oklahoma as the place is awful. He has to be here since he is the X Division Champion, but he asks who would not want him on every show. He says he will walk in and out as X Division Champion and head on to the next down. As for why he is out first, it is because he is the biggest star and everyone should know it, but when that happens, the rest of the show becomes a letdown. He says that's not his problem, since he's going to the slots afterwards to win a ton of money. He then tells all the husbands not to let go of their wives, because when he shows up, the wives will want to grab at him. Trevor Lee then calls himself "a modern-day sex symbol" who is getting all the ladies, then says he wants a woman with a full set of teeth.

He plans to take back the X Division title and take back his place at the top of the X Division.

She asks Allie if she thinks the fans care about her and came to see her, then says nobody likes her, her friends talk about her behind her back, her family hates you, and if she was smart, she would have learned from her a long time ago and learned to watch her back. KC Spinelli attacks Allie from behind, then she and Sienna gang up on her. Suddenly, Rosemary shows up, and Sienna and KC Spinelli get out of the ring.

We hear from Eli Drake, who say that when you do everything you can in Impact Wrestling and in the world, you can get your own locker room. He is handing out opportunities to see if anybody can make a name for themselves against him. Somebody has answered the challenge, and he thought that with the name "Sika", he thought he would face one of The Wild Samoans (Afa and Sika), but instead he got a dummy from Oklahoma. He wants to know if he's got the fare to pay to ride the gravy train, as he is looking into the eyes of Eli Drake. He wants to know if Montigo Sika has what it takes to beat him, as it will take everything he's got and everything he's got is not enough.

Before the next match, Eli Drake says nobody has seen anyone like him, then makes fun of everyone for not being attractive enough for him on his dating app. If he can't get an opportunity with the ladies around here, then he might as well give one to someone in the back if they have the courage to make a name for themselves at his expense. He issued the challenge, and someone took it. He says it will take everything they've got and what they've got is not enough, and that is just a fact of life.

Eli Drake retains the Impact Wrestling Global Championship against Montigo Sika.

Eli Drake gloats about winning and says Montigo Sika spent the last 30 minutes before the match in the bathroom when he was really looking for the exit. He says everyone could feel the heat resonating off the ring simply because he was in there, and says there is no man in the universe who can touch him.

Lashley says he knows Alberto El Patron will hype the crowd up and get them on their side, but he will beat him.

Alberto El Patron beats Lashley. During the match, Lashley tries to use the ring bell as a weapon, but El Patron stops him from doing it. El Patron then contemplates doing the same thing, but when Lashley charges at him, El Patron pushes the referee out of the way and uses the ring bell as a shield, knocking Lashley down and allowing Lashley to hit the double stomp in the corner for the win. After the match, El Patron gets on the microphone. He does not remember the last time he was here in Oklahoma, but he remembers some of the faces that were there and sees some new ones. He thanks the crowd for supporting real wrestling, and also promises on his mother that he will not curse or else she will kick his ass. He says "real wrestling" because he says the wrestlers here bust their asses e very night, and they have real passion for the business, especially him. He says that tonight, the crowd saw one of the best performers in Lashley, and tells everyone to give it up for Lashley. He says that as long as the people support real wrestling, they will die for the fans in the ring. Lashley then shows up as El Patron leaves, then Lashley says he is out here to shake El Patron's hand as they have had fight after fight with him and he respects someone who gets in the ring and fights with him. He says he will continue to fight with El Patron in the future. El Patron asks if he should trust each other, as they have always put their lives on the line for the real fans and he now wants to shake his hand out of respect. El Patron then asks the crowd if he should trust him, then says Lashley is one of the pro wrestlers who can really go, and he respects him for his wrestling and fighting careers. As long as the fans continue to ask for both of them in the ring, it will keep happening. Lashley and El Patron shake hands, then Lashley raises El Patron's hand.

Alberto El Patron says that tonight, he is back in Impact Wrestling, and he is coming for the Impact Wrestling Global Championship. Tonight, he had an amazing match with Lashley, and thanks Lashley for one heck of a match, as the fans were the real winners tonight. He tells Eli Drake to get ready, for he is coming for him.

Impact Wrestling One Night Only: GFW Amped Anthology, Part 4 - The Results

In footage from earlier this week, Curt Hawkins says he lost one of the biggest matches in his career against two men he has never even heard of, saying they have never been where he had been or done what he has done. He says GFW was supposed to be a fresh start for him, and now he has a lot to prove and he is not done yet.

"The Masked Saint" Bret Granstaff beats Juicy Joey.

We hear from Nick Aldis, who is focused on beating Bobby Roode in the GFW Global Championship Tournament. He says that to beat Roode, you have to bring everything you have, and in a title match, you have to bring even more. He has been in the ring with Bobby before; some times he won, some times he lost. All he can do to prepare now is to be as close to 100% as he can possibly be. As for right now, all that is on his mind is that any other distractions or problems become irrelevant, as the Global title is everything.

Chael Sonnen talks about his history with Phil Baroni, and says he is surprised that Phil Baroni turned on him. He says that Baroni should have stayed sitting down like a fan, but instead he tried to get his big break in wrestling. He is also shocked that Baroni just might be able to get that break after how he came after him only to get held back by security.

Enigma beats Bestia 666 and Cielo Escorpion in a three-way match.

Chael Sonnen shows up. As he is waiting to hear from Jeff Jarrett, he thought he would show up and give tribute to what GFW is all about. They have laid the groundwork, the tournament has been set, and the finalists are in place. He introduces Bobby Roode, followed by Nick Aldis. Roode says he made it perfectly clear why he was coming to GFW. He does not need to be here, as he works for a real wrestling company in TNA, and has held just about every title there, including the King of the Mountain title, which he is holding now. He is here to become the first-ever GFW Global Champion, and the only thing standing in his way is Nick Adlis. They have both comea long way, and he will soo show Aldis what "The It Factor of Professional Wrestling is all about." WHe the bell rings, all he is going to do is kick Aldis' ass, and when he wins, he will take a plane to TNA headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee and have a party, or he can walk to the back, find the closest trash can he can find, throw the title in and light it on fire. When he beats Aldis for the Global title, he will do whatever he wants, and there is nothing anybody can do it. Aldis gives Roode some veteran advice: the last person who was cheerleader for the title ended up getting bitch-slapped and looking at the lights. He agrees that Roode does not need to be here, but says Roode wants to be here, and when he sees the crowd in Las Vegas, Nevada, he knows GFW is a step up. He says that Roode is hedging his bets and wants to keep one of his feet in TNA, but the real winners roll the dice. The only thing that Roode will be taking back to Dixie Carter is his size 12 foot up his rectum. Suddenly, Stu Stone and Chris Mordetzky show up. Stu Stone says Aldis has been ignoring them, but Aldis tells them to go back to the back as nobody cares what they have to say. Stu says that's not true, because when he speaks, people listen. When the time is right, Mordetzky will deliver the flowers in his hands and everything will be alright. Roode tells Aldis to take the flowers home to his wife and kids, since he will not be taking home the title. Aldis tires to attack Roode, but Chael Sonnen holds him back and allows Roode to get a piece of him. When Aldis confronts Sonnen, Roode puts Aldis in the Crossface.

Christina Von Eerie beats Amber Gallows to become the inaugural GFW Women's Champion! Karen Jarrett presents Christina Von Eerie with the title after the match, then Von Eerie celebrates with Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend).

EPISODE FIFTEEN


We see footage from earlier today of Christina Von Eerie and Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend) and The Bollywood Boyz (Harv and Gurv Sihra) entering the building.

Jeff and Karen Jarrett show up. Karen says it is a very exciting time to be in GFW, as they have partnered with 13 organizations around the world - and counting - and says she could not be more excited to kick off tonight's episode. Jeff says he could not be any mor eexcited as the tag team titles are on the line tonight. He says there are four distinct divisions in the company - The Women's Division, The NEX*Gen Division, The Tag Team Division and The Global Division - and they are the centerpiece of the company. He has always wanted to stand on bell-to-bell action for a foundation. Suddenly, Chael Sonnen shows up and says he is responsible for GFW's success, but says Jeff Jarrett has been ducking him while he has burned through so much of his family's money that he might as well call hi m"Dixie." Jeff Jarrett tells Chael Sonnen that he is a promoter at heart, and now is not the time or place about his request, but Chael Sonnen says it is his ring and that is is the place. Jeff Jarrett asks the crowd if they want to see Sonnen in a match, and asks if there are any takers in the crowd. He then says they will figure the match out, and when Sonnen speaks again, Karen grabs Jeff's microphone, tells Sonnen to shut up, and that while he is somebody in MMA, he is nothing in the world of professional wrestling. Sonnen says it never ceases to amaze him how much respect $10,000 worth of silicone can buy somebody, and he is not here to deal with her. He then continues to insult Jeff and Karen, and Karen slaps Sonnen in the face. Sonnen tells Jeff he will go to the graveyard and step on his old man if he has to, and says he is walking out until there is something more on the line. If he does not get him a match, he is out the door. Karen says that is good, as nobody wants to even see him.

We hear from Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster the Legend) and The Bollywood Boyz (Harv and Gurv Sihra) prior to their match for the GFW Tag Team Championships.

The Bollywood Boyz (Harv and Gurv Sihra) beat Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend) to become the inaugural GFW Tag Team Champions! Jeff Jarrett presents the titles to The Bollywood Boyz after the match. Both teams then shake hands.

Note: These shows are over two years old at the time of premiere. They were meant for a weekly television program that was never picked up. Commentary in this program has been changed to reflect current events.

EPISODE NINE


We get a closer look at Virgil Flynn.

Virgil Flynn beats Trevor Lee to advance in the GFW NEX*GEN Championship Tournament. During the match, PJ Black is seen watching from the stage while drinking out of a plastic cup.

We hear from Shelton Benjamin via Skype in footage from earlier in the week. He was excited and fortunate to be in the tournament for the GFW Global Championship, but during his match with JR Kratos, he suffered a concussion and has been forced to back out of the GFW Global Championship Tournament at the behest of New Japan Pro Wrestling and GFW. However, he will be back, and he will be out for the Global Championship regardless of who is carrying it.

We hear from Nick Aldis, who says he wants to become world champion again and have a more fulfilling world championship reign than he did in Impact Wrestling. We then hear from Jeff Jarrett, who says that there are guys who want the GFW Global Championship, and guys like Nick Aldis who almost need the title. Nick Aldis calls Chris Mordetzky a man with obvious attributes who is smarter than he come across, and that there is part of him who wants to be taken seriously and a part of him who is afraid to fail.

Virgil Flynn meets PJ Black backstage, who offers him a cup of water only to knock it out of his hand. Virgil Flynn tells PJ Black he has him in the finals.

Karen Jarrett shows up. Karen talks about the match between Mickie James, Christina Von Eerie and Lei'D Tapa, and says that she cannot wait to see who Von Eerie's opponent is. She says that just like in other sports, women are making their mark and are proving that it is not just the men who can hold the spotlight. She then introduces Amber Gallows, who shows up. Amber says hello to everyone, and thanks GFW for having her here and allowing her to compete in the GFW Women's Championship Tournament. She could not be more honored, and tonight, she looks forward to competing against Katarina Leigh (best known as Katie Lee Burchill in WWE and Winter in TNA/Impact Wrestling) and Laura James. Suddenly, Teaze 'n Sleaze (Juicy Joey and Kenny Klimx) show up, and Kenny wants her and Karen to shut up. He then says that Karen and Amber killed the entire viewership in three minutes, and says it is time to give the ladies something to look at, as nobody cares about the ladies of GFW and all the ladies came to see them. The whole time this is going on, Karen cannot stop laughing as they rip their tanktops off and dance, not believing what she is seeing and asking Teaze 'n Sleaze if they knew where their husbands are as well as how ridiculous they look right now. Juicy Joey shushes Karen Jarrett, but Karen stops laughing and says Joey has forgotten who he is talking to and that she is here to talk about the women main eventing tonight, and says Joey, Kenny and half the men in the back cannot even hold a candle to them. He tells them to take their shirts and head to the back, because there is only one "Double J" and it is not Juicy Joey. Joey says something to Karen, but Karen slaps him and Kenny. Amber Gallows then kicks Joey in the face before grabbing the top rope and dropping down when Kenny charges at her.

We hear from Katarina Leigh, Laura James and Amber Gallows, who are very proud to be in GFW after having wrestled all over the world and all hope to become GFW's first Women's Champion.

We hear from Amber Gallows in footage from earlier in the week. She says the post-match celebration from last week is something she will remember forever, but that is only half the battle, and she will take the GFW Women's Championship home.

Jeff Jarrett says the final four in the Global Championship tournament will be set tonight, even though they have no replacement yet for Shelton Benjamin. Nick Aldis is irritated with the fact that Chris Mordetzky brought his personal life into everything, and says that he will use it against him again. Chris Mordetzky, on the other hand, sees nothing wrong with this and he and Mickie James go way back. Jarrett says Mordetzky is a main-event man who can go bell to bell and is also an arrogant prick. Nick Aldis says that Mordetzky did not have to bring Mickie James into this, but he did. Mordetzky calls Nick Aldis a great British wrestler with a great body and great ring skills, but calls him "a poor man's Chris Adonis." Jarrett and Nick Aldis also bring up Chael Sonnen lighting the fire between Adlis and Mordetzky, and even Jarrett says that Aldis is furious about this. Aldis says Mordetzky is trying to get into his head, and says that because of this, he is in Mordetzky's head. Mordetzky says that if Nick Aldis is furious about him about his mentioning Mickie James, then he can only imagine how furious Aldis will be when he loses.

We see the roads of PJ Black, Virgil Flynn, TJ Perkins and Jigsaw to the finals of the GFW NEX*GEN Championship Tournament.

He introduces himself as Stu Stone, and shakes hands with Jarrett before annoucning he is the official curator and business partner of Mordetzky.

Stone then mentions Shelton Benjamin being out of the Global title tournament, and proposes replacing Shetlon Benjamin in the match against Bobby Roode with Chris Mordetzky. Jarrett refuses, but Mordetzky overlooks the fact that Jarrett called him a clown and admits he was beaten, and wishes Nick Aldis the best of luck in the tournament. Stone and Mordetzky almost leave, but Stone gets back in the ring, and says that he would have to stick his head up his ass to undestand what Jarrett is thinking not putting Mordetzky back in the tournament.

He says there are celebrities, stars and Chael Sonnen, and he decided to do a little expeiment. He asks the crowd to stand up, chant his name and take his photograph, then tells them to turn tot he person to their right and say hello to them before doing the same to the left, and says those people are Chael Sonnen fans just like them, and tell them to get get together after the show and share their favorite Chael Sonnen moment. He then introduces his first guest, whom he says has a big announcement: himself. He then says he wants Jeff Jarrett to give him a match, and it does not care who it is against as he can easily beat them. After listing off a name of wrestling legends that he says he can beat, he says the clock is ticking and that it will be one more in the win column for him. He then leaves.

Juicy Joey is backstage with a new version of Tease 'n Sleaze. He says Kenny Climz got him this far, but he likes multiple partners and he likes to apartment, and that one could say he is a swinger. Next to him is his persona, Oozin' Austin, and together, they will get closer to the tag team titles and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

This strikes a nerve with fans when the shows are finally played here, and fans accuse GFW/Impact Wrestling of making it look like Roode is coming back to the company when he is not.) Roode says Jarrett makes him sick for "walking away from a real company" in TNA. He also says no one cares about Bullet Club because he is the only star here.
