There are several major news items to report from Thursday's huge "iMPACT!" broadcast on SpikeTV as TNA prepares for "Hard Justice" live on Pay-Per-View on Sunday, August 12!
CAGE, TOMKO AND STYLES BLOODY STING AND ABYSS
In the main event of the broadcast, it was Abyss taking on "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles in a No Disqualification match. However, the odds were against Abyss when Christian Cage, Tomko and Styles began to brutalize their nemesis. Sting attempted to make the save for his friend, but it was too much for Sting and Abyss. After a mysterious arm dragged Abyss under the ring, Christian and his crew annihilated Sting in the ring ? even slamming him into a pile of glass! When Abyss emerged from under the ring, he was a bloody mess. Cage, Tomko and Styles then smashed Abyss into his own thumbtacks! Certainly, Cage and his crew have taken the war against Sting and Abyss to a while new barbaric level of violence
TEAM 3D VS. THE STEINER BROTHERS ANNOUNCED FOR HARD JUSTICE!
Also on "iMPACT!", The Steiner Brothers answered the challenge by Team 3D to meet them face-to-face on the broadcast. The two legendary tag teams once again verbally bashed each other ? with Brother Ray calling into question Scott Steiner's recent injury and "Big Poppa Pump" returning fire by mocking Team 3D. However, the Voodoo Kin Mafia interrupted the face-to-face, claiming there was another legendary tag team that the Steiners and 3D forgot about! VKM eventually attacked both teams leading to the Latin American Xchange hitting the ring for an all-out brawl. TNAwrestling.com has learned that the match is now official for Hard Justice as it will be Team 3D taking on The Steiner Brothers!
