The Monday Night War 5/3/2010 Part One: We Surrender

On last nights episode of TNA Impact Mike Tenay Announced that Impact would be moving back to Thursday night, I don't like it but hey if it helps keep them on air I agree with it.

The show got of to quite possibly the best start ever, when Jay Lethal aka Black Machismo came out not doing his usual Macho Man impersonation instead doing a much funnier and very dead on Ric Flair impersonation, as he had posession of The Nature Boy's Hall of Fame Ring. This of course envoked a reaction out of Flair and his faction of bad guys which ultimately led to a brawl with some of TNA's top talent, including AJ Styles Desmond Wolfe Beer Money Inc. RVD Team 3D and of course Lethal is still involved in it, until hogan comes out and lays down the law(sweet little cameo by Phil Shatter) and makes the matches of the night.

The first actual match of the night was Brian Kendrick and Doug Williams facing off against Ink Inc the team of the Punk Princess Shannon Moore and Jesse Neal, the match had your usual high performance for the superstars of the X-Division in which Moore and Neal come out on top. after the match Samoa Joe came out and laid out everyone.

Then in another one of TNA's funniest spots Mr. Anderson came out dressed as an alter boy talking smack about the pope after laying him out backstage, and Jeff Hardy came out challenging Anderson to a match at Sacrifice in which Anderson declines but Hardy knocks him out strips him of his gown and makes him accept the challenge.

Tna Knockouts/Knockouts Tag Team Title Match: The Beautiful People vs Tara, Sarita & Taylor Wilde

Tara and Lacey start, Tara controls early but Lacey gets a spinkick. Sarita tags in and sunset flips Lacey, but Lacey makes the tag to Velvet Sky. Velvet tries a charge on Sarita in the corner, Sarita gets the boot up, and gets a flapjack for 2. Sarita tags out to Taylor and suplexes Taylor onto Velvet for 2, but Velvet fights her way free and tags out to Madison Rayne. Taylor goes to make the hot tag to Sarita, but Tara tags herself in. Sarita is upset by this and tags herself in, causing Tara to turn around and nail Sarita, then lays out Taylor as well and follows her out to the floor as the Beautiful People drag Sarita back in and hit a double DDT for the win.

Winners: The Beautiful People


Motor City Machine Guns vs Beer Money vs Team 3D

Sabin and Roode start the match with a fast paced sequence, then Storm and Shelley tag in for another fast paced sequence that ends with Shelley getting a 2 count on Storm. Trust me, it was too fast to recap. Shelley tags out to Devon, who nails Storm with a clothesline for 2, then beats him down in the corner. Roode gets a boot to the back of Devon from the outside and tags in and starts putting the boots to Devon. Tag back out to Storm and they hit a double suplex and then do the Beer…Money gimmick before covering Devon for 2. Beer Money work Devon over and whip him into the corner, but Storm misses a charge and Devon clotheslines Roode, then makes the hot tag to Brother Ray, who comes in and cleans house on Beer Money. 3D does the Whazzup, a joke which died an obscure death ten years ago, and then Hall and Nash rush the ring and attack Team 3D, drawing the DQ.

No Contest

Eric Young comes out with a kendo stick to chase off Hall & Nash and then, predictably, nails 3d with it instead and does the Too Sweet handshake. The MCMG come in and clear out all three members of the Band, but get nailed by Beer Money, who hit the DWI on Shelley as Young puts the boots to Brother Ray. This show is just falling apart more and more by the segment.

Here's the part of the show where shit gets gay, Orlando Jordan... I'm not gonna say anything else.


Then Aj Styles and Abyss face off in a monster's ball match. AJ jumps Abyss on his way to the ring and tosses a trash can at Abyss, but charges Abyss and gets backdropped back into the ring. Abyss wedges a chair in the corner, ducks a chairshot from AJ, and levels him with a big boot. Abyss grabs a crutch (funny how crutches always seem to become a foreign object in these kinds of matches. Are there just a lot of cripples hanging out backstage at wrestling shows or something?) and takes a swing at AJ, but AJ ducks and hits the Pelle kick, then stomps away at Abyss in the corner. AJ comes off the ropes and Abyss just presses AJ about seven feet up in the air and AJ comes down hard. Abyss dodges a leapfrog, rams AJ into the chair in the corner, and hits Shock Treatment for 2. Abyss goes and gets the thumbtacks and pours them in the ring as Flair brings Chelsea down to the ring and tells her to take her clothes off. Chelsea seems really upset by this request and Abyss tries to defend her, but AJ nails him from behind with several chairshots and then a springboard crossbody onto the thumbtacks for the win.

In the main even RVD takes on Desmond Wolfe. Wolfe jumps RVD before the bell and viciously works him over at ringside and again back in the ring. Desmond with a charging European Uppercut in the corner and goes for the Tower Of London, but RVD blocks and reverses a whip across the ring, but Desmond catches him in the corner with the kick/forearm combo for 2. RVD starts firing back, but Desmond with a hammerlock takedown for 2. Wolfe rams RVD into the corner and then does the RVD pose, but when he charges off the ropes, RVD goes up top and hits a flying jump kick and Rolling Thunder, then tries the Five Star Notebook Splash, but Desmond crotches him and goes for the Tower Of London, then changes his mind and goes for the Tower Of London on the apron, but RVD fights out again and hits another jumpkick and they’re on the rampway. RVD backdrops Wolfe back in and hits the Five Star Frog Splash for the win.
