411’s TNA Impact Report 11.15.07
Posted by Larry Csonka on 11.15.2007
The fallout from Genesis with the Outsiders reuniting, Booker T and Sharmell signing their TNA contracts and Kaz challenging for the TNA World Title!
TNA Impact Begins…NOW!
-MOMENTS AGO Cornette is out with Tenay and West, he says they cannot mention Booker and Sharmell's name, because they didn't sign their contracts as of now. He is pissed because he was gone for two weeks and everything went to hell.
-We see highlights of last week's show.
-Kurt Angle is out with Karen, AJ and Tomko to kick off the show. Kurt says his wife said she would take care of business and she certainly did. He never doubted her, and knew she would do what needed to be done. He has Karen take a bow. And since he is giving thank you's out, he thanks Tomko and AJ and says that they are part of the Angle Alliance. They are friends and family. He goes to hug them and Nash is out and he is not happy. He thought he and Kurt were family. Kurt says Nash is a has been, a wuss, he only brought down Kurt and tried to bring him down. Nash may be wrong, but he thought he had Sting beat on Sunday. Kurt tells him to bring it, Nash is in and they all brawl. They get the numbers advantage over Nash and here comes Dutt, Machismo, the MCMG's, LAX and other faces to make the save.
-We see Cage arriving at the Impact Zone.
-Back from commercial and Nash is on the phone and tells someone to GET HERE NOW. Crystal is there and Nash blows her off, but says, "Fun is about to begin."
LAX (Homicide y Hernandez) vs. Lance Hoyt and Jimmy Rave
LAX toss Hoyt and Cide and Rave start things off. Some quick arm drags and such by Cide, Hernandez sling shots in and then a catapult, clothesline, senton combo by LAX for 2. Mexican back breaker by Hernandez gets 2. An Irish whip, but Rave gets a boot to Cide. Hoyt tags in, gets a big slam on Cide and then knee to the head. Hoyt gets a catatonic variation on Cide, grabs up Cide, who fights back and eats a clothesline for 2. Hoyt to the second rope, misses a leg drop and tags in Rave. Rave tosses Cide into a tag to Hernandez, he cleans house and CRACKA JACK on Rave. Tree slam on Hoyt! SITOUT powerbomb by Hernandez on Rave! Cide back in, corner clothesline and one by Hernandez. Hernandez then gets a HUGE dive onto Hoyt! Hemme distracts Cide, and Rave rolls up Cide for the upset win.
After the match they kick the shit out of Rave, Hemme in and the MYSTERY LATINO hits Hemme with the slapjack.
Winners: Hoyt and Rave @ 4:00 via pin
Now I know if we are to take Hoyt and Rave seriously, they need a win, but they have been jobbers and have no right going over LAX. But that being said, that was a fine little match.
Rating: **
-Team 3D is here with the X-Title and they have kidnapped an X-Division wrestler. If they want to see him or the title they have demands to answer. No more letter X ever. No more that was awesome chants. The X-Division wrestlers can't go on the internet to put themselves over under fake names. They want 12 cases of ding-dongs. And 5 cases of Yoo-hoo, not the new flavor, the old oh so chocolately one. And finally, the X-Division guys have to hand over their rats and their rats mother's.
-Back from commercial and Crystal is with Cage. She says he lost his match and his Coalition. He tells her to shut the hell up. He hasn't spoken to either one of them. He went through a war with Kaz, he gave everything to keep his streak alive. Tomko and AJ came out there because they couldn't follow directions and they cost him the match. And then they decide to help Kurt Angle and they never consulted him. He says they better have a good excuse, and better be ready to stand face to face to explain themselves to him, and that time may come tonight.
-Tenay and West discuss what has happened thus far in the show.
Chris Harris and Gail Kim vs. Robert Roode and Ms. Brooks
Kim held the ropes as Harris made his entrance, in a nod to their old partnership when she managed AMW. Nice. Brooks and Kim to begin. Lock up and Brooks with a takedown, Kim escapes and Brooks rolls trough and a cover for 2, Kim bridges up and counters for 2. Arm drags and they stand off. Roode tags in by slapping Brooks, and then gets a chair and makes Brooks sit in it and tells her not to get out of it. Roode plans to do this on his own. Roode grabs Kim and says he'll give her the first shot. She steps on his foot, Harris tags in and gets a top rope lariat. Irish whip and a bulldog by Harris gets 2. Roode tosses Harris to the floor and we head to a commercial @ 2:45.
Back from commercial @ 7:05 with Roode getting a spinebuster for 2 on Harris. A snap mare and Perfect neck snap by Roode, cover for 2. Harris fights back, lariat and then a backdrop to Roode. Stalling suplex by Harris connects and he cover for 2. Sloppy counter by Roode and a DDT lands for 2. Roode asks for the chair from Brooks, she refuses and then he takes it away and nails Harris as the ref was distracted. 1…2…3.
After the match Roode beats down Harris with the chair. Roode tries to PILLMANIZE the arm of Harris, but Brooks stops him. She then tells him off, shoves him and they takes the sign from the fan and attacks her! They have a catfight and Roode loves it.
Winners: Robert Roode @ 9:35 via pin
Well they are advancing the Roode /Brooks/Rain stuff well, but Roode and Harris had some sloppy moments. Also Harris has completely fallen off the map, I wonder who the hell he pissed off. Gail and Brooks had the better action in the match.

-Crystal finds Hall outside. He and Kev are here to take Angle and his boys on.
-Back from commercial and Cornette is pissed at Morgan for getting him in possible trouble. He wants to know how Morgan could let "THOSE PEOPLE" appear on PPV and he can't go into business for himself. Morgan did what he thought Cornette would do. Cornette says to not get him in trouble. They are friends, and Morgan needs to keep his nose clean. Hoyt rushes in and says there is no man to woman violence on Spike, and a Latino thug attacked Hemme.
-3D is out to the ring with their kidnap victim. The crowd chants, "That was Awesome" to piss off 3D. They call out the MCMG's and ask if they will meet their demands. Sabin, Shelley and Machismo are out on the ramp. First of all, they heard the demands, and they heard the cal for ding-dongs. Sabin says they could have asked for money, cars, strippers or even lower cholesterol. How about, they give them some ho-ho's, because they got THEIR MAMMA'S out back! HUZZAH~! They then beat down the kidnap victim and say it is like beating their mom. They reveal it to be Havok, but he's looking more like regular Johnny Devine. Machismo says he wants his belt back, but Ray says there is a traitor in the X-Division. They rush the ring and so do the rest of the division. They beat down 3D, Havok is released and he gets his cane and HE is the traitor. He and 3Dlay the entire division out and whip them.
-JB is with Tomko and Styles. AJ says he knows Cage is pissed, but this is a misunderstanding. He tells the cameraman to get close so he can talk to Cage. He says he was under pressure and made the deal with Karen for all three of them. He wanted to add Kurt to the Coalition, but he wasn't thinking and would never hurt Christian. I LOVE YOU MAN! Tomko says Cage will NOT understand, and AJ asks if he will get demoted. JB says maybe to "Co-Captain," to which AJ says he could handle that.
-Nash and Hall talk.
-Back from commercial with a James Mitchell video package, as he reminds us that he promised to make Abyss' life hell, and reminds us of Judas Mesias.
-TOP OF THE HOUR with Nash and Hall make their way to the ring. Nash tried to talk, but Hall had to get in the "Hey Yo," and says it still works. Nash says he talked to Cornette, and at Turning Point it will be The Angle Alliance vs. Hall and Nash…and they got a partner, and we'll find out who he is before the night is over.
-Tenay and West talk.
-We get a video showcasing Rellik's debut.
Abyss vs. Black Reign w/Rat vs. Rellik
Rellik is killer backwards, which is a play off of Stamboli's "REDRUM" Indy character, which was like dark Muta, which he played in Japan. Well this isn't exactly fair, now is it. Rellik and Black Reign beat down Abyss, and then choke him in the ropes. Off the ropes and Abyss fights back and lays then out with boots. Double Goozle, they escape and Abyss tosses Black Reign to the floor. Spinebuster by Rellik on Abyss. Abyss to the floor and Black Reign tosses Abyss to the railing. Rellik takes a turn and they stare down as we head to commercial @ 2:00.
Back from commercial @ 5:55 and Black Reign and Rellik fight over who gets to beat on Abyss. Rellik holds Abyss, but he moves and Black Reign lays him out. Abyss then lays both of them out, corner clotheslines to both men. Ass ram to Black Reign, Chokeslam on Rellik and a cover for 2. A backdrop to Black Reign by Abyss, and then the black hole slam on Rellik and that is all.
After the match Black Reign grabs the darkness falls weapon and lays out Abyss with it. Rellik is back in and has a chair, and nails Abyss. Black Reign then his the darkness falls pedigree on the chair. Rhino is out to make the save

You've got to be shitting me, they beat Rellik on his first night in a TNA ring? Seriously, NO BUYS!

-JB is with Angle. Angle makes fun of him, and says he is the champ and he doesn't sweat Hall or Nash. They aren't the Outsiders, they are the over the hillers. He then says it could be Waltman, if he had the brain cells to even find the building that is. As for Kaz, he won't make a name off of Kurt Angle.
-Back from commercial and it's time for a KILLIN~!
Alexa Jade vs. Awesome Kong
Young Alexa is so hot, it's a shame she has to die. Lock up and to the corner, chops by Kong. Irish whip and Kong with the corner charge of DOOM~! She grabs her up, BENDY TORTURE RACK OF DEATH! Spinning back fist, and then the KONG BOMB finishes it.

-Cornette is here to have a contract signing for one of the most decorated wrestlers ever in wrestling. He will now be officially signed to TNA, with his wife Sharmell, he is Booker T! Booker looks really happy to be there. Cornette says it is great to have them join TNA. Booker says he has to say something. He looks around, and he has to say thank you to all the fans. Cornette says the have questions, but they have to take care of business and sign the contract. Sharmell signs her contract first and then Booker. He says you can call him Booker T…NA. Crowd is loving the segment. Cornette asks what his plans are, and right then Christian Cage makes his way to the ring. Cornette is pissed that Cage had to come out and steal the spotlight. But Cage wanted to come and say hello to an old friend of his. Cage says he has had some problems, and he figured he would come and take care of this before it becomes an issue. He knows that Booker is here to become the world champion. But Cage says this is a different world. There are no crowns, or thrones, but there is ONE king and that is Cage! He is the champ, the real #1 contender, and Booker better look at him. Before he gets any ideas, he better go to the back of the line and take that nappy headed ho with you! Booker starts to kick the shit out of Cage and runs him off! Booker then says he took Cage's spot…NOW CAN YOU DIG THAT…SUCKAAAAAAAA?? Not the first feud I would have run with Booker, but what can you do?
-They show a really good video package hyping Kaz as the future of the sport, and tonight's title match.
-JB is with Kaz and says he shocked the world. Kaz says there is nothing left to say. He earned his shot at Angle, the best in the world. He will leave everything in the ring, and what ever happens, happens.

Winner: Kurt Angle @ 14:20 via pin
A really good TV main event, that could have used more time, but it was good and Kaz over the last three weeks or so has gone from goof to star, which is a good thing.
Rating: ***
-Interesting pinning combo. Afterwards Kaz tells Angle he was THIS CLOSE. Angle backing the ring and Nash and Hall are out. They corner Angle and beat him down. AJ and Tomko are out and the numbers game takes them down. Joe's music hits and HE IS THE PARTER~! He cleans house, and then stands tall with Hall and Nash. Well, someone needs to work for that team, it might as well be Joe.
-Closing wrap up video runs.
