Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for February 9, 2016

Matt Hardy shows up with Reby Sky and Tyrus. He's here to bring good business to TNA, and bashes the fans. Tyrus says Ethan Carter III won't be here, as EC3 couldn't do anything without him and is nothing without him. After Reby Sky puts Matt Hardy on a pedestal, Matt Hardy says he did not break one single rule in the Last Man Standing match when he beat EC3 for the World Heavyweight Championship, then says Dixie Carter hasn't spoken word one to him. He refuses to leave the arena until Dixie speaks to him, and demands that she also fires EC3.

Dixie Carter arrives...

He thanks the fans for their support during the last ten years he's been in TNA, and as he mentions his match for tonight, Maria Kanellis shows up and says his emotion is manufactured, and that TNA needs "The Miracle" Michael Bennett. Bennet shows up and enters the ring with Maria. Bennett admits Angle has had one hell of a career, and says he idolized and studied him as a kid, in the hopes of one day beating him when he grew up. Angle tells him to step back, and says that everything Angle has done is nearly untouchable, but says he is the miracle he can do it. Angle tells Maria she's beautiful, but she's going to need a miracle, then beats up Bennett. He says he doesn't wrestle people who don't have respect, and says his opponent tonight does. That opponent is Drew Galloway.

Rosemary says the tag titles are pretty, but everything pretty eventually rots and dies in their world. Roode knows he and Storm aren't going to get everything they want right now, but since they have a ref, they might as well have a fight. Roode and Storm charge the ramp and fight Decay. This starts a match.

Beer Money ("The Cowboy" James Storm and Bobby Roode) vs. Decay (Crazzy Steve and Abyss) ends when Abyss pulls the ref out of the ring after Beer Money hit the DWI on Crazzy Steve. Abyss then chokes the ref, and Beer Money take down The Decay. Rosemary, however, distracts Roode, allowing Crazzy Steve to hit a low blow on Roode and also hit Storm with one of the tag team titles. Abyss pulls out Janice from underneath the ring, and he and Abyss are about to finish them off when The Wolves (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards) rush in with steel chairs, forcing The Decay to back down and leave the ring. Richards then says that The Wolves want the tag team titles back, and offers them a shot at the tag team titles as part of their plan to do it. Abyss accepts on The Decay's behalf for next week...and it'll be a Monster's Ball match.

He then demands Carter fire EC3 right now.

Tyrus hits Spud with a cheap shot, then Matt Hardy goes back to being a jerk to Dixie, but EC3 shows up and takes down both Hardy's security and Tyrus before getting in the ring.

As Matt Hardy says that last week's actions were good for business for the Matt Hardy brand, Eric Young and Bram show up. EY takes pride in bringing immense pain to both Bobby Roode and Jeff Hardy, and praises Matt as world champ, but says the title goes through him. Kurt Angle shows up and says he's talked to TNA official concerning his next farewell tour match...and it's him vs Matt for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. A livid Matt Hardy tells Kurt Angle he will end his career if he keeps this up, but Angle says he can whup everyone in the ring right now if he has to. Suddenly, Beer Money ("The Cowboy" James Storm and Bobby Roode) show up, and they're in the mood for a fight, and declare that they will give a beatdown to Eric Young and Bram.

Drew Galloway says Feast or Fired was a big risk, but he now controls his own destiny. Tyrus shows up and tells him to set the briefcase down and walk away as it is a target on his chest. Drew tells him he has no plans of doing that, and Tyrus pretty much tells Drew that it's his funeral.

He then hands EC3 a letter from his doctor. It's a doctor's note stating that he is clear for action, and Jeff wants his first match against Ethan Carter III. EC3 denies Jeff a title shot, saying he has to earn it. He then brings out an opponent after speaking to Bob Ryder through the camera: The Master of Motion, Shynron.

They apologize for a few more things (including Roode puking in Storm's cowboy hat) as they give a toast to each other and the fans. As they get rowdy and loud, Eric Young and Bram show up to spoil the fun, and after Eric Young brags about taking the World title from him and admitting he doesn't like Bram but does like the way he operates, he says that Roode has something that belongs to him: the TNA King of the Mountain Championship.

He then demands he play promoter and make a match between him and Jarrett for the King of the Mountain title, with every intention of taking the title as well as Jarrett's dignity and career. Jarrett says he doesn't work for him, and he damn sure doesn't work for EY.
