[CBT]

Taken from PWInsider

Xplosion:

*Robert Roode defeated Curry Man.

Impact:

*TNA champion Samoa Joe comes out and announces the main event of the 6/8 Slammiversary PPV will be the King of the Mountain match. Joe says that there will be eight competitors total including himself - Jim Cornette has told him he will pick four challengers and Joe will get to pick the rest. Cornette has picked Robert Roode, Matt Morgan, James Storm and Tomko. Joe says he will name the other challengers next week. Booker T comes out and demands to know why wasn't picked and tells Joe that if Joe doesn't pick him, there will be serious consequences. Booker slaps Joe and they brawl. Christian Cage and Rhino hit the ring. Booker challenges them to a match later tonight and says he'll find partners.

*Kaz & Jay Lethal & Sonjay Dutt defeated Johnny Devine & The Rock N' Rave Infection. After the match, Lethal asks So Cal Val to marry him at Slammiversary and she accepts. Sonjay didn't look happy and had some great facial expressions here.

*TNA Knockouts champion Awesome Kong defeated Gail Kim with the help of Angelina Love.

*Kurt Angle came out and read a letter to Karen asking to take him back and said he hoped she would come to Impact next week.

*TNA Tag Team champions LAX defeated The Motor City Machineguns in a non-title bout.

*Angelina Love and Velvet Sky, now given the team name "The Beautiful People" defeated ODB and Roxxi.

*TNA champ Samoa Joe & Christian Cage & Rhino defeated Team 3D & Booker T. After the match, 3D attacked and bloodied Hector Guerrero

[Mr. Orange]

So Joe gets to pick half his challengers? Seems like an ok show, I'm looking forward to LAX/MCMG the most.

[Iron Man]

8 people?What... I thought 5 was too many.

[Blackjack]

So basically Booker, Cage, & Rhino are the other people. Damn I was hoping for a Jeff Jarrett return

[6 seasons and a movie]

Why are those four the ones picked none have had much to do with the title picture and really don't bring much to the match. Joe should of picked his three first and then had a mini tournament for each of the other spots or just had less in the match and made all of them qualify. I would have liked for Joe to pick Chrisian, Booker, and Angle if he were healthy enough by then. If Angle wasn't cleared the spot could be held for a special late entry (Jarrett). Styles could also be good in the match specially if Angle were able to be in it as it could lead to his face turn and a fued over the summer with Angle over Karen and get him back into the title picture where he belongs.

[the franchise]

I'm a little suprised they didn't put Sting in the title match.

[Erdrtyu]

Sky and Love have been named "The Beautiful People" for weeks now.

Anyway, ok show I guess. As someone else mentioned, I was wishing for a Jarret return. If you ask me, he can't return soon anough.

[Jordan]

Roode? Storm? Morgan? Tomko? It'll be a crapKing of the Mountain then...

Amen, Jeff Jarrett is my fav on TNA, well he would be if he actually returned.

[Jord]

It sounds like a pretty good iMPACT, imo. I'm looking forward to MCMG/LAX.

Read spoilers for next Thursday, it is 4 qualifying matches, with the 4 winners facing Joe. Traditional 5 participants.

[The Silent Flute (joepetree)]

sounds like a great impact

[Hazza]

KOTM should include: AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Sting, Kurt Angle, Robert Rude, Christian Cage, a returning Abyss and Jeff Jarrett in my ideal world.
