TNA Impact Wrestling Results: Does Dixie Go Through A Table & There's A New Director Of Operations

We open with a video of what happened last week with The Destroyer Bobby Lashley winning the TNA Heavyweight Championship from Eric Young. We also see Bobby Roode come through the crowd and make the save of EY.

Opening Match: The Beautiful People vs Gail Kim and Taryn Terrell

Velvet Sky and Gail Kim open up. Gail gets a quick near fall, but Velvet kicked out at the last second. Taryn tags in and she too goes for a quick pin.

Mike Tenay asks about "ring rust" on Taryn after being gone for 11 months, but Taz says by looking at her, he doesn't see any rust.

After Gail and Taryn dominating early, Velvet interferes from the outside and The BP's take over on Taryn.

Taryn makes a hot tag to Gail, and Gail takes over on Angelina. Taryn climbs to the top and nails both BP's with a flying cross body allowing Gail to hit Eat the Feet on Angelina for the pin.

Winner of the match: Gail Kim and Taryn Terrell

The new champ Lashley is heading to the ring.

Tenay announces that Bound for Glory will be in Tokyo, Japan.

Lashley, in a pretty ugly suit, joins MVP and Kenny King, also in suits in the ring to start the celebration. Lashley comes out to his own music and makes a grand entrance.

MVP announces that he is once again in charge as the Director of Wrestling Operations because Lashley won the title.

Eric Young, left arm in a sling, interrupts after MVP said that EY would probably be asking for his release.

EY said he wants an extension not a release and he hits the ring to try to get some. Bad choice by EY as he gets beat down by Lashley and King while MVP nails him with his crutches.

Bobby Roode, who is still suspended, once again comes through the crowd and clears the ring.

Back from the break, Roode has the mic and says that he and EY have 2 bonds. 1) They signed their contracts on the same day way back in the beginning of TNA and helped build TNA, and 2)they both love and respect the wrestling business.

Roode said they had their differences, but it's time that they get their company back for the fans and for every person that busts their tail every night because they love the wrestling business.

Roode says he's back, and that MVP can extend the suspension or fire him, but at least have the guts to do it to his face like a man.

MVP comes in the ring and prepares to fire Roode when he is interrupted by Earl Solomon Armstrong, who is representing the TNA Board of Directors. Mr. Armstrong relieves MVP of his duties as Director of Wrestling Operations.

Roode then punches MVP.

In the back, it's announced that there will be choice between Crazy Steve, DJ Z and Manik for a chance at Sanada's X-Division title.

Back from the break, we find out that Armstrong is a lawyer representing the Board of Directors. Dixie and Spud are talking about who is going to be named as the new Director of Business Operations. Dixie is sure it's her.

Sanada asks all three if the want a chance at his title since he gets to choose. They all three say yes so Sanada makes it a 4-way match.

Sanada vs Crazy Steve vs Manik vs DJ Z

While these four are going at it in the ring, Tenay and Taz announce that the fans have voted back the 6-sided ring.

Each of the competitors make impressive moves and Manik nails all three of his opponents from the top rope with a somersault to the floor with one of the best moves of the match.

Sanada puts a bridge suplex on DJ Z and gets the pin.

Winner of the match: Sanada

Very good match but way too short. All four looked great.

Spud is escorting Dixie to the ring.

Tenay and Taz talk about the Monster's Ball Match with Willow and Abyss vs Bram and Magnus and then we go to the back and the English duo cut a promo about how it's just their kind of match.

Dixie and Spud start to celebrate the historical significance about what is going down right now. Dixie talks about putting faith in Bobby Roode and Bully Ray and they failed her. She says the people put their faith in MVP and he turned his back on them.

Tonight is about Dixie gaining control once again of TNA. Dixie 2.0

Dixie calls out Earl Solomon Armstrong to make the announcement.

Armstrong lets Dixie knows theirs a misunderstanding and an awkward situation. He says Dixie is not the new Director of Wrestling Operations. The new Director will be here later but requested he not be named.

Dixie has a meltdown and says she will not be in charge OVER HER DEAD BODY.

Bully Ray's music hits and out comes the newest member of the TNA Hall of Fame (along with Devon).

Bully tells Dixie that she knows what is about to happen. Dixie offers him $200,000 to get him to leave. Bully says I can take your money or put you through a table.

I just think I will put you through a table.

Out comes EC3 to make the save. Bully deposits him out of the ring immediately. He picks Dixie up and as he is ready to put her through the table, Spud throws the table out of the way and EC3 grabs his aunt away from Bully.

We were so close to seeing Dixie go through a table – DAMN!!!

James Storm heads to the ring and we see a video of where he spit beer on members of the Dallas Cowboys at Slammiversary.

Next we get the Mr. Anderson intro by............

Mr. Anderson himself.

It's a Slammiversary rematch: James Storm vs Mr. Anderson

Early in the match, Storm hits a swinging neck breaker for a near fall and then Anderson hits the same move on Storm.

Anderson hits his head on a move against Storm and is then groggy from that point forward. Anderson tries the Mic Check but it's blocked and Storm nails the Last Call Super Kick for the pin.

Winner of the match: Cowboy James Storm.

Gunner tells Samuel Shaw that he is being released from the mental hospital into Gunners care.

Storm then confronts Sanada in the back about what he will do at Destination X.

Tommy Dreamer attacks EC3 in the back and it looks like a hardcore match with trash cans flying. They brawl going out into the ramp area, and Tommy Dreamer continues to demolish EC3 and is choking him with a shirt when Carter hits a low blow and then hits a wicked body slam on Dreamer.

EC3 takes control for a short while and then the two brawl back and forth around the ring. Neither man stays in control of this impromptu hardcore match for long.

Finally both men are in the ring, Dreamer is pounding EC3's face and bites his forehead.

Al Snow comes out and pulls Dreamer off as the crowd chants "head". Taz says let them go at it.

Abyss and Willow cut a promo in the back about the Monster's Ball.

After MVP and his thugs try to find out about the new Director of Wrestling Operations, it's the Monster's Ball.

Abyss and Willow vs Bram and Magnus

As Willow and Magnus battle in the ring, Bram and Abyss brawl on the outside. Into the ring comes trash cans and hockey sticks. Bram and Magnus begin to take control with the weapons in the ring.

Willow turns things around and throws a trash can directly into the head of Bram and Bram ends up bloodied. Abyss shows up in the ring with Janice, but Bram barely escapes her wrath.

Bram handcuffs Abyss to the steel guard rail, and now it's 2 on 1 against Willow. Magnus gets several near falls on Willow and Taz is begging him to stay down. As the Brits are beating down Willow, Abyss breaks free.

Abyss saves Hardy (oops Willow)but Bram nails the Monster.

Willow hits both opponents each with a Twist of Fate and climbs to the top. Magnus throws a trash can at Willow and knocks him off and through the barbed-wire table.

Abyss brings a bag of tacks into the ring and ends up choke slamming Magnus and his bare back into the tacks, with several of them sticking.

However, Bram grabs Janice and hits The Monster with his own weapon and Bram pins Abyss for the win.

Winners of the match – Bram and Willow

Outstanding Monsters Ball. Non-stop action with plenty of hardcore elements.

Next up, the new Director of Wrestling Operations.

The board representative makes the announcement:

The new Executive Director of Wrestling Operation is the Olympic Gold Medalist, Kurt Angle.

Angle grabs the mic and says guess who's in charge, and then says it's about time that TNA got their heads out of their a$$es.

Angle says he has no agenda because he's accomplished everything in the wrestling business that he desires. So Angle's word to everyone in the back – It's About To Get Damn Real!!!!

MVP, Lashley and King come out. And MVP can't believe Angle is now his boss. He says that Angle must have run to the Board of Directors after he threw him out of the building. MVP then asks Angle if he has all of his "demons" under control.

MVP says that Angle can't tell MVP, King or Lashley what to do and they are going to make his reign a short one.

Angle says if they lay one finger on him that he will fire all 3 of them. Angle announces that next week it will be a rematch, Lashley vs Eric Young.

Angle then reinstates Bobby Roode and Roode and EY run to the ring and brawl with Lashley and King as the show ends.
