Impact for 1/08/09
- X Title Semifinal Tournament- Alex Shelley defeated Eric Young. Sabin assisted Shelley with the win. Shane Sewell was the referee for the match. When he was heading up the ramp Sheik Abdul Bashir came out and slapped him and started to go at it with him. They brawled in the ring and Jim Cornette came in. Cornette told Sewell that if he warned him not to go at it with the wrestlers and even suspended and told him the next time he did he would have to fire him. Cornette tells Shane he is fired, to the amusement of Bashir. Cornette tells Bashir he knows this is what he wanted that's why he kept egging him on. He tells Shane he is fired, for 3 days. He will be back on the payroll with TNA starting Sunday as a wrestler and his first match will be at Genesis with Sheik Abdul Bashir.
- The Main Event Mafia come to the ring and Kurt Angle cuts a promo on Jeff Jarrett about their match at the pay per view. He says he shouldn't let BG James wrestle him tonight in the state of mind he is in cause he will hurt him. Sting takes the mic and says he didn't have any problems with Rhino until he decided to side with "them". Once Rhino started believing all the stuff they were saying then it got personal and for Rhino at Genesis it will be showtime. Nash grabs the mic and says they shouldn't wait till Genesis they should take out Foley and Jarrett tonight. Steiner says once Foley put his hands on them last week they won't be wrong for hurting him. Booker says they will get them tonight.
- Awesome Kong with Raisha Saeed, Rhaka Khan, and Sojourner Bolt defeated Alison Rain (I think). Squash match. Kong had a picture of Hemme with her.
- Matt Morgan defeated Robert Roode due to referee stoppage that Roode could not continue due to a knee injury he took when he got thrown over the top rope to the outside. Jay Lethal and Consequences Creed came on the ramp with the briefcase and made their way to the ring. Lethal said they would like to cash in their title shot now since Beer Money seems to be in perfect health.
- Jay Lethal and Consequences Creed defeated Beer Money to win the TNA Tag Team Titles. Storm, who wrestled in jeans worked most of the match. Pretty good match, Roode did wrestle some of the match. Finish saw Lethal hit Storm with the briefcase while the referee was trying to separate Creed and Jackie. Abyss and Morgan watched the match from the ramp.
- Kurt Angle defeated BG James. BG got busted open during the match and the finish saw BG tap out to the anklelock. Afterwards The Mafia sans Sting came out and Angle put a chair on BG's ankle and stomped on it till Foley and Jarrett came out for the save. The mafia went up the ramp and Brother Devon, AJ Styles, and Rhino came to the ring to check on BG. They took BG out on a back board. Jarrett cut a promo in the ring saying he didn't have to do that to Brian and all that's on his mind now is that he can't wait to be the **** out of Angle cause he is a no good S.O.B. Foley grabs the mic and also cuts a promo saying he saw himself last week and he knows he isn't the wrestler he used to be but at Genesis he will be as good as he ever was for that night. They show the Mafia backstage and they laid out all the other members of the Frontline. They head to the ring and Angle says he promised to take out Jarrett tonight and that's exactly what he will do. The Mafia surround the ring but Samoa Joe with an arm cast and lead pipe comes through the crowd and nails Angle. The Mafia retreat as Joe, Foley, Jarrett, Rhino, AJ, and Devon stay in the ring.
