Jarrett said that Sting was dictating the rules to TNA but it's his turn and declared Wargames would be an eight man match, listing his team as the men standing with him. Steiner said that the longer he has to wait to hear about a contract from TNA, the more people will get hurt.

James Storm tried to use a bottle but the referee stopped him. Konnan hit Kip with a slapjack and Kip was pinned. Bob Armstrong came out to check on the James Gang after the match.
*Jeremy Borash interviewed Abyss and Jim Mitchell inside the ring. When asked about last week's Documentary, Mitchell said "Mission Accomplished" and said Christian Cage was trying to hide from defending against Abyss. He said that Cage left his wife vulnerable and wondered what it's going to take to get Cage to give Abyss a title match. They then showed the "second half" of the documentary, with Shelley and Mitchell going towards Cage's house. Christian confronted them and was jumped by Abyss. They brawled through Cage's house into his pool. Mitchell told Abyss to stop trying to drown Cage because they can't win the title from a dead man. Mitchell told Cage that things would get worse if Abyss doesn't get his title match.
*Christopher Daniels come to the announcing table for the next bout.
*Samoa Joe defeated Sonjay Dutt, Alex Shelley, and Chris Sabin in a Four Way Match, hitting the Musclebuster on Dutt. Before the bout, Joe got in Daniels' face. After the match, Joe and Daniels fought around ringside.
*Backstage, Jeremy Borash interviewed Team Jarrett, who said they were going to the ring to call out Sting. They go to the ring. The lights go out. Rhino and The James Gang are in the bleachers. Rhino says on the mic that the mind games aren't over. Jarrett continued to talk but Ron Killings, Shark Boy, Norman Smiley, and Chase Stevens come out in another set of bleachers. Jarrett continues, but AJ Styles, Sonjay Dutt, Jay Lethal, and Chris Sabin come out on one of the entranceways. The lights go out and when they return, Sting is in the ring behind the Army. Sting hits all of them with the baseball bat. Team Canada and Alex Shelley hit the ring and the heels take over, but all the babyfaces rush the ring for the save. The segment was really good live.
