Magnus comes to the ring. Magnus says he's sorry James Storm's parents didn't love him as a kid but the human spirit will endure no matter what and is the biggest driving force in the world. He brings out Mickie, fresh off her miracle recovery from being hit with that train. Mickie says her and Magnus are really in love and they give themselves completely to each other. Aw. It's nice to see she forgave him for hiring TNA crew members to stalk her. Then Storm comes down. Boo! Hiss! He is wearing a rather lurid-looking '60s shirt. Yeah, this ain't Mad Men, bro. Khoya's with him.

Storm says he wishes he'd pushed her harder so she could hold her son in a wheelchair. Um, this man just confessed to attempted murder on live TV! Someone call the police or something. Storm says he never truly wanted Mickie, it was just to see if he could. Mickie mocks him and tells him to find a woman so she can have that one last match she promised everyone. Mickie vows to kick her a** too. Fun segment, dubious fashion choices aside.

Mike Tenay interviews Jeff Jarrett and Karen. Mike asks what Jeff's big return and victory at the pay-per-view mean for TNA and Global Force Wrestling. Jeff talks about how surreal returning to TNA after so long was. He hints there is definitely a future with both TNA and Global Force Wrestling involved with each other. Jarrett hints that things will get "interesting." Its all very cryptic. Rather short bit and definitely not the explosive interview I was expecting, especially since this potential invasion storyline is easily the best thing iMPACT has going on at the moment.

Carter comes out accompanied by Tyrus. Angle comes out and Josh hypes up his accomplishments in the ring and calls him the "standard bearer" for pro wrestling. Jeremy Borash does the fancy-style in ring introductions. It's too bad the company is in the condition it is, otherwise this could have been a bigger deal than it actually is.

He throws EC3 into Tyrus and hits an Angle slam on Carter. Amazingly, he still is not able to get the three. Te crowd is furious and insists "That was three!!!
