Pero los encuentros del Global iMPACT son realmente por encima del promedio:

El evento de NJPW también contó con Místico y Averno representando al CMLL, lamentablemente no serán parte de la transmisión.

Backstage, Morgan did pushups while asking Abyss, «What do they get?» Abyss yelled, «Pain.» Abyss geeked out while saying «Mick» repeatedly and then left the locker room. Morgan added, «This just might work»…

[Q6] Sting came to the ring in street clothes. He spoke about how he’s brought his best to the ring every time he’s stepped foot in the ring over the last 20 years. He said he was surprised when A.J. Styles offered him a shot at the TNA Title. He said his instant reaction was to say yes. «I still have the will to win,» Sting said enthusiastically.

Sting said he was going to lace his boots up one more time and bring his best. He said he can still get the job done. He said that if he doesn’t live up to his own expectations at BFG, «then it will be show time for the last time.» Sting’s music played and he started to leave the ring.

Kurt Angle came out and stopped him. Angle wanted to know if Sting was going to say he would retire. He said they should consider changing the name of the show from Impact to The View so that Sting and Styles could kiss each other’s asses for two full hours. Funny. Angle complained about Styles giving his buddy a title shot.

Angle said that Sting has to beat him to prove he’s the best. Sting got in Kurt’s face and said that if he wants to retire him he should do it now. He shoved Kurt and dared him to take «the old man out of his misery.» Three scrawny security guys stepped between Angle and Sting.

Kurt took a cheap shot and knocked Sting to the ground and applied the Ankle Lock. Styles ran out and ran off Kurt. Angle took the mic at ringside and said that Styles and Sting could fight at BFG, but he wanted Styles in a match next week. «You want me, you got me,» Styles responded. «We’ll settle this one way or another, Kurt»… [C]

Powell’s POV: I don’t like them taking attention away from a BFG main event that is already struggling to generate interest, but I guess they had to hype something for next week’s three-hour show.

Backstage, Lauren asked Styles if it was wise to challenge Kurt to a match just three days before BFG. He said it wasn’t wise, but it is necessary. Styles said he doesn’t feel good about the way he won the title and wants to answer all questions next week…

Powell’s POV: I like that. It’s good to see them acknowledge that Styles didn’t win on the best of terms and have him express the desire to prove himself next week.

Tenay and Taz ran through the pay-per-view lineup… A shot aired of Samoa Joe walking backstage and kicking something over…

[Q7] [C] The Motor City Machine Guns stood on the ramp. Chris Sabin said they’ve listen to the fans and Mick Foley. Alex Shelley said their old entrance music was actually responsible for making Consequences Creed throw up on Impact last week. Funny. They introduced their new video. It was an improvement, but it was cut off by Samoa Joe attacking them from behind.

Joe knocked down the Guns and then headed to the ring, where he called out Lashley. Bobby came out. Joe met him at ringside for a brawl. Joe got the better of Lashley and placed him on the Spanish announce table. Joe climbed onto a platform, leapt off, and dropped an elbow on Lashley that knocked over the table.

Powell’s POV: Good intensity, but I wish they would have kept these two apart until the pay-per-view. There’s something to be said for saving the first physicality between two new opponents until the big PPV match.

Don West quickly ran through the house show schedule…

The announcers recapped Joe’s attack on Lashley… Backstage, trainers checked on Lashley’s neck… Ring entrances for the next match took place. Highlights aired of ODB and Tara fighting last week…

[Q8] 5. ODB defeated Tara to retain the TNA Knockouts Title in 3:00. Tara had control early, but ODB hit a fallaway slam. At 1:40, Awesome Kong walked to ringside with a sledgehammer. Kong grabbed So Cal Val, hit her on the back of the head with the sledgehammer, and it pushed her face out so that it’s no longer so flat. Okay, I made up that part.

Kong forced Val to place Tara’s tarantula on the ground. Kong set up to destroy the spider, but Tara reached over the ropes and stopped her. ODB capitalized on the distraction by hitting Tara with a neck breaker for the win…

Backstage, Foley told Angle that «we’re ready.» Angle ran off in pursuit to ask Foley who «we» is… [C]

Powell’s POV: The women’s match was disappointing because of the silly finish. Just a set up for a likely three-way match at BFG. I’m not a fan of all the multi-person matches. Are they feeling pressure to put everyone on the show?

6. Kurt Angle and Mick Foley vs. Matt Morgan and Aybss. Stevie came out wearing a referee shirt with Daffney by his side. Referee Slick Johnson sent them away.
