Impact opens up with Jeff Jarrett's music hitting and the TNA founder making his way out to the ring right off the bat this week. Jarrett says that almost 8 years ago he founded TNA and it stands for Total Nonstop Action, so this week he's not going to talk to Sting about getting an answer this week. This week he's going to kick Sting's a** and get an answer out of him, right now! Jarrett drops the microphone and walks around to the backstage area and starts walking up to the rafters. Jarrett begins searching for Sting and tells Sting to stop hiding. Finally at the other end of the catwalk Sting appears and Jarrett spots him, but Sting doesn't realize it. Sting does the finger to the lips "shhh" motion at the camera man but then gets jumped out of nowhere by Jarrett! Jarrett knocks Stinger down the stairs and screams at him the whole way down. Jarrett beats Sting all around the backstage area but Sting comes back and starts choking Jarrett only to have Jarrett come right back on him. Jarrett and Sting brawl all the way to the ramp where Jarrett strips Sting of his jacket and continues to throw right hands at him. Jarrett tosses Sting into the ring and screams at Sting to tell him why he's done what he's done and then the lights go out. When they come back on Sting has a bat and he levels Jarrett with it! Sting continues to beat on Jarrett with the bat until Jeff Hardy's music hits and Hardy along with Abyss and RVD run down and chase Sting off.

In the back JB is in AJ Styles lockerroom where AJ and Flair stand alongside Beer Money and Desmond Wolfe (along with Chelsea). Flair from his wheel chair says that the focus of TNA is standing in the room with him right now. Flair says Sting just laid out Jeff Jarrett and that's just an example of what the rest of the nights going to be like. Flair reiterates that he hates Hogan's guts and that there is only one Ric Flair. Flair says St. Louis is his town and there Team Flair will destroy Hulkamania and Team Hogan. Robert Roode says that last week James Storm busted a beer bottle over RVD's head last week and now this week it's Roode vs. Hardy. Roode says that everyone knows that Jeff likes to fly around like a little birdie but after he steps into the ring with Roode tonight he'll never be able to fly again. Sorry 'bout yo damn luck! Wolfe says last week he put out Abyssamania in one shot. He says that Abyss is simply an animal and like any animal he can be tamed. Wolfe says he will not only tame Abyss but he'll mame him and Hogan's HOF ring will be finally Chelsea's. AJ says it starts tonight between he and Pope when AJ and Wolfe take on Pope and Abyss, and it ends Sunday at Lockdown where he will embarrass Pope and beat the ever loving piss out of him! AJ says there are only two things Pope can do about it, nothing and like it! WOOOOO!

At the announce table Tenay and Taz hype up the rest of the show but are interrupted when Team 3D's music hits!

Brother Ray comes to the announce table and demands a microphone. Devon and Jesse Neal are walking down the ramp with weapons as Bubba grabs a mic. Bubba calls out Hall, Nash, and refers to Syxx-Pac as X-Pac. He says they are supposed to have a match with those pieces of crap but they just got out of Hulk Hogan's office and Hogan is just as pissed off at The Band as they are. Tonight it won't just be a match, it'll be a 6-Man Tag Team Street Fight where falls count anywhere in the building!

Hogan says things could be better but he has four Main Eventers on his team and everyone will see what Team Hogan is all about at Lockdown. Eric Bischoff's voice is heard off in the distance and Hogan peaks around a curtain and sees Bischoff talking to Ric Flair. Hogan excuses himself and waits for Bischoff to walk up.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

Oh man a new insane TNA Shop commercial airs with some guy dancing in a Blue Demon Jr. mask. That was weird.

In Hogan's office Hogan says that Bischoff has crossed the line and says Bischoff screwed Jarrett over yet again, threw Lethal to the wolves, and then fist bumped with Flair. Bischoff asks Hogan if he wants him to apologize for being himself and says that Hogan knew how he was when they got into this thing. Bischoff says Hulk deals with things his way and Eric deals with them his. Hogan says he's not looking for an apology but wants to know what he was doing with Flair. Bischoff says if Hogan hasn't noticed Team Hogan has been getting it's a** kicked and Hogan taught him a long time ago keep your friends close and your enemies closer. He's trying to gain Flair's confidence so he can help Hogan. He says if Hogan really knows him then he knows he can believe that. Bischoff walks out as Hogan shakes his head and Jay Lethal walks in! Lethal says he's been doing alot of thinking and something has to be done about The Band. Hogan asks if they played "Be A Man Hulk" (Randy Savage's Hulk Hogan diss song) and Lethal says he's going to change the name of that song to "Be A Man Ric Flair". Lethal says they have to put an end to The Band once and for all so the Mega Powers need to ride again. Hogan says after Lockdown they'll get it together and they shake hands and Lethal says he's off to search for Hogan's Mega Powers tights. Just absolutely classic.

In the back JB is with the new Knockouts Champion Angelina Love. He asks her about the Lether & Lace Match and she says it's a 'shock' that Velvet chose this type of match. Angelina says that her as a WRESTLER probably would've chosen a WRESTLING match. Angelina says she didn't come to TNA to parade herself around the ring like a lady of the night, she came to take women's wrestling to a whole new level and prove she is the best. Tara walks up and asks how she's going to do that, by winning her freaking title with a stupid key to a lockbox. JB reminds them that they have to co-exist this Sunday and Tara channels Eric Bischoff as she says "you have to keep your friends close, and your enemies closer." Angelina asks Tara what she's going to do about it and they get in each others faces as we go to break.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

Back from commercials Christy Hemme is with Abyss and The Pope. Christy says that this weekend could be the biggest night of both of their careers. Pope says Lockdown will be his defining moment in his career and possibly his life. Pope says the question of "does he have it or doesn't he" will be answered this Sunday. He says its put up or shutup for he and AJ Styles and Pope will be "pimpin and riding and jivin" all night long. Abyss says he and Pope have AJ and Wolfe tonight in the middle of the ring which is right where they want them. Abyss says it's going to take more than a fire extinguisher to the face to stop him and suggests next time Wolfe bring a whole fire truck or better yet a bazooka. Abyss says to put him down he will have to take his last breath from him. He gives his word to Hogan that he won't let him down.

"I Quit" Match
Angelina Love vs. Velvet Sky

Angelina is wearing an old Beautiful People t-shirt with a big 'X' over the Beautiful People name. Velvet is wearing an insanely hot leather outfit. She has a microphone on the stage and she says this will not be a Leather & Lace match afterall. She says none of us perverts deserve to see her goodies so instead this match will be Angelina handcuffed in the ring while Velvet whoops her a**.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

Back from commercials Velvet climbs into the ring and Angelina, with her hands handcuffed behind her back, puts the boots to her! Velvet picks up the Knockouts Title and blasts Angelina with it! Velvet grabs the microphone and says she forgot to mention the other match stipulation and that's it's an "I Quit Match"! Velvet puts the boots to Angelina and then chokes her. Velvet screams at Angelina to quit but she screams no. Velvet slams Angelina's head into the mat repeatedly and then whips her with the whip that she brought to the ring. Velvet chokes Angelina again and again asks her to quit but Angelina says no again. Velvet throws Angelina headfirst into the top turnbuckle and says that maybe if she strips Angelina naked she'll quit (that got a HUGE pop). Velvet strips Angelina's top off to her bra and Angelina says "I said no you b*tch"! Velvet puts the boots to Angelina again and Madison Rayne & Lacey Von Erich run out and put the boots to Angelina as well. Tara's music hits and she chases Velvet & Madison but Lacey smartly remains in the ring where she eats a right hand from Tara. Tara gets the handcuff key from Slick Johnson and frees Angelina.

Winner: NO CONTEST

Tara and Angelina stare at each other and then Angelina offers a handshake to Tara but she just leaves the ring.

In the parking lot Christy Hemme is standing by Abyss who is laying on the ground with TNA staff surounding him. She says that all she knows is that a car sped away from Abyss.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

JB is in the back with Matt Morgan and he says that Morgan had to find a new tag partner for his match with the Guns tonight. Morgan says 'we' don't need anybody and that they are capable of defending the belts themselves. Morgan says TNA is making him find a partner and says he plays by the rules. Amazing Red walks up and it is insane how small he is compared to Morgan. Morgan calls Red "pound for pound the best wrestler in TNA." Morgan says now they have the size and strength of Matt Morgan matched with the speed and quickness of Amazing Red. Morgan says Red needs to do all that flip flopping he does and set one of the Guns up for the Carbon Footprint. Morgan then raises his arm up and Red jumps up and slaps it.

TNA World Tag Team Championships
"The Blueprint" Matt Morgan & Amazing Red (c) vs. Motor City Machine Guns

The Guns won this shot at the belts back at Destination X in the Ultimate X Match. Amazing Red is actually a former TNA Tag Team Champion (actually NWA Tag Team Champion) way back in the Asylum Days with Jerry Lynn. Morgan and Red come out together but Morgan still holds both of the belts. Morgan and Shelley start the match off. They lockup and Morgan tosses Shelley backwards like he's nothing. Morgan then picks Shelley up but Shelley lights him up with leg kicks and then comes off the ropes and ducks a clothesline only to eat a shoulderblock from Morgan.

Red whips Shelley into the ropes and Sabin was actually able to blind tag Shelley.

Winners & STILL Tag Champs: Morgan & Red via pinfall (Code Red)

After the match Morgan is pissed that Red stole the spotlight from him and low blows Red. He says those are his belts and then hits the back elbows on Red in the corner. Morgan then places Red's head against the ring post and tries to kick him into it but Chris Sabin pulls him out of the way! Morgan is pissed!

In the back Christy Hemme is standing by as EMT's are loading Abyss up in an ambulance and says that there is a security video of what happened to Abyss that we will see after the break.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

Robert Roode vs. "Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy

Roode and Hardy lockup and Roode forces Hardy into the corner. The referee separates them and Hardy slaps Roode! Mike Tenay reveals that the opening match at Lockdown will be RVD vs. James Storm and the winner of that match will win the numbers advantage for Lethal Lockdown for his team (meaning that if RVD wins then the first 2-on-1 advantage would go to Team Hogan and so on). Roode locks Hardy in a side headlock but Hardy shoves him into the ropes only to eat a shoulderblock. Roode comes off the ropes but eats a hip toss from Hardy.

After the match Storm pulls Hardy out of the ring and slams him into the guardrail and then the ring post. Storm rolls Hardy back in the ring and climbs in with the beer bottle.

At the announce table Tenay and Taz run down the card for Lockdown with no new matches announced and then we see a video recap of the feud between Mr. Anderson & Angle.

In the back JB is with The Pope and Pope says tonight he has a job to do and his prayers are with Abyss, but Pope has to find a partner. Lethal walks up and calls JB "Mean Gene" and then says what Pope is about to walk into is a tag match and he calls Pope "Reverend Slick." Lethal says he told Hogan that he could always count on him and he's going to prove it so tonight Pope needs to handle "The Model" and he's got the "Dynamite Kid". Lethal says this one's for Hogan. He walks off and Pope looks astonished at what he just witnessed. Pope then smiles and walks off too.

---COMMERCIAL BREAK---

Main Event
"The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero & "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal vs. "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles & Desmond Wolfe w/Chelsea

We see a shot of Dog the Bounty Hunter and his wife (and kids) in the front row (who Jeff Hardy called a grade A "ass hole" for disrespecting he and Shannon Moore somehow at the taping). As Lethal's music played he didn't come out and then we see why! Beer Money has attacked him in the back! He fought off Roode but then Storm came out of nowhere and hit him with a broom.

Styles says it looks like Pope's partner has a little drinking problem due to Beer Money so it looks like this will be a handicap match! Wolfe started to make his entrance but Hulk Hogan lays him out from behind with a steel chair to even things up! Dinero jumps AJ on the ramp and then tosses AJ off the ramp into the guard rail!
