TNA iMPACT Results - September 25, 2008
Source: TNAWrestling.com
"The King Of The Mountain" Jeff Jarrett opened up the broadcast by announcing that next week on iMPACT, wrestling icon Mick Foley will officially join Total Nonstop Action!
- However, the other big news was that during the announcement, Jarrett was interrupted by Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle, who talked so much trash that Jarrett finally agreed to face him in a match at Bound For Glory! Tune in to the next "iMPACT!" for more news on Jarrett's in-ring return on October 12 against Angle!
- In tag team action, Matt Morgan and Abyss defeated The Rock N' Rave Infection. After the bout, Team 3D came out and hurled insults at Abyss and Morgan and challenged them to an open invitation Monster's Ball match at Bound For Glory. Abyss obviously wasn't happy about competing in the Monster's Ball bout.
- In Knockouts action, Awesome Kong defeated newcomer Mercedes Steel. After the bout, Kong attempted to continue the punishment, but Raisha Saeed – or so we thought – attacked Kong! Saeed unmasked to reveal it was really Roxxi!
- TNA World Tag team Champions Beer Money Inc. defeated The Latin American Xchange. As a result of the match stipulations, Hector Guerrero can no longer manage Homicide and Hernandez in TNA!
- Sting gave an emotional in-ring speech, showing photos of the legends he's learned from in his career, including Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan. Sting then showed a photo of Samoa Joe and said that Joe doesn't know how to be a proper World Champion!
- Speaking of Samoa Joe, he defeated X Division Champion Sheik Abdul Bashir in a non-title match on the broadcast. After the bout, Joe had some choice words for Sting, who he will face in the main event at Bound For Glory. As a show of disrespect, Joe continued to beat on Bashir – resulting in the referee reversing the decision and giving the win to the X Champion!
- In the broadcast main event, Booker T defeated AJ Styles after smashing AJ with the mysterious bag. Christian Cage tried to get involved to help AJ, but it only resulted in miscommunication between the two friends as AJ and Cage argued as the broadcast ended.
