From PWInsider:
TNA taped several episodes of Impact tonight in Orlando, Florida. Richard Trionfo called in the following results:
Impact 5/3
*Sting comes to the ring. Kurt Angle comes to the ring with a chair to confront Sting. Sting doesn't realize Angle is coming at him, so Angle tries to nail him with a chair. Sting blocks it with a bat. Security separates them. Sting demands to know what Angle's problem is. Angle blames Sting for him not getting a NWA title match against Christian Cage. Sting says that his problem should be with Cage, not him. Sting says that Angle interfered in his match last week and cost him his shot at the title. They fight and are separated. NWA champion Christian Cage comes out on the stage and asks why they can't all get along. He mocks them by saying they aren't being good role models. Cage suggests a way to settle their problems, saying Sting was handed a title shot by Jeff Jarrett, so he didn't really earn it. Cage tells Angle that he's an a***** but he has a point about the title situation. He then says that Angle ruined Sting's shot last week. He says to fair, they should have to team against he and AJ Styles tonight in a No DQ match. If they win the fall, whoever gets the pin gets a title match at Sacrifice but if Cage wins, no one gets a title shot. Sting says that he already has a title match. Angle says that if he's really an icon, he'd be willing to put the shot on the line.
*Backstage, Leticia interviewed NWA Tag Team champions Team 3D. Brother Ray says their legacy was fulfilled with the NWA Tag titles and it was their most important title win. He says they are going to have a long title run and discusses their non-title bout against Rhino and Samoa Joe tonight. He says that he knows how bad Rhino is and wants to see how tough Samoa Joe really is.
*NWA Tag Team champions Team 3D fought Samoa Joe and Rhino to a no contest when Christopher Daniels attacked Rhino and Devon with a bat in under four minutes. Match was mostly Joe and Brother Ray going back and forth. Daniels tries to leave so Joe grabs him and chokes him out, then tosses him back in the ring. The babyfaces lay Daniels out and they all "got the tables". They set a table in the corner. Joe nailed Daniels with an enziguiri and Rhino gored him through a table.
*Backstage, AJ Styles and Christian Cage were arguing about having to wrestle Sting and Kurt Angle as Styles was upset. Cage said that when they win, there would be no number one contender, leaving a shot open for Styles. Styles hugged Cage and left.
*Robert Roode and Traci Brooks came to the ring. Brooks was in a neck brace selling the guitar shot from the week before. Roode says he isn't a happy man and says he hates Eric Young's guts. He said that the only people he hates more than Young are the fans. Roode says that he knows Young is in the Impact Zone and demands he comes to the ring. Jim Cornette comes to the ring and says that he doesn't condone violence against women, but if anyone should be fired from TNA it's Roode and Brooks and she got what she deserved last week. Cornette points out that Young was signed to a personal services contract while he was still under a TNA contract. As a result, Young was in breach of contract, so Cornette could sue or fire him. He says that Young signed because Roode was "tampering with TNA's contracts" so Roode could be sued or fired. Roode says that if Cornette could have done something, he would have done it by now, then strikes Cornette. Young hit the ring for the save and they brawl. Young goes for a guitar under the ring but Roode avoids it, then DDTs Young. Roode stands over Eric with the guitar but Young lowblows him. Roode drops the guitar. Young goes to hit Brooks with the guitar, but Roode nails him from behind. Brooks and Roode handcuff Young in the corner. Roode says that "It pays to be Roode" and drills Young with the guitar. Security hits the ring. Cornette gets on the mic and asks Roode if he thinks he's so tough, he'll face Jeff Jarrett at the Sacrifice PPV.
*Gail Kim pinned Jackie Moore in a Street Fight. Each brought weapons to the ring. Moore grabs a chair but Kim dropkicked it into her for the pin. Good but short brawl. James Storm attacks Gail and DDTs her. Chris Harris makes the save when they tease hitting Kim with a glass bottle.
*In a match to determine the challenger for Christian Cage's NWA title at Sacrifice, Kurt Angle and Sting defeated NWA champion Christian Cage and AJ Styles in a No DQ match when Angle and Sting both made Styles tap out. A good match. It was ruled the Sacrifice PPV will be Cage vs. Angle vs. Sting.
*It was announced in the building that NWA Tag team champions Team 3D will defend at Sacrifice in a Three-Way match against LAX and the team of Tomko & Scott Steiner.
Impact 5/10
*Homicide defeated Scott Steiner and Team 3D's Brother Devon. Hernandez interfered and nailed Devon with the Border Toss to set up the pin.
*Christy Hemme comes to the ring. The Voodoo Kin Mafia followed her. The former Basham Brothers debuted, using their OVW names, Doug Basham and Damaja. Hemme told VKM that she had a surprise for them and that's who it was. It's VKM vs. Basham & Damaja at Sacrifice.
*TNA X-Division champion Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley defeated Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt when Shelley pinned Dutt with the Air Raid Crash. Very good match for the short time (4 minutes). Bob Backlund came out and forced Sabin and Shelley back into the ring. Backlund nails Shelley then hit an atomic drop on Sabin.
*AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels & James Storm defeated Samoa Joe & Rhino & Chris Harris when Storm pinned Harris. Harris and Storm brawled into the bleachers and Storm took a bump off of them. Lots of brawling in the crowd.....and at the same time...
*Sting and Kurt Angle brawled into the Impact Zone. Security comes out to separate them. Christian Cage comes out on the stage watching them battle. Cage went to the back. Angle got on the mic and said that at Sacrifice, he was going to take down Sting.
Xplosion:
*Robert Roode pinned Sonjay Dutt. Eric Young came to the ring to save Dutt with a guitar.
*Jay Lethal defeated Homicide with a top rope elbowdrop.
Notes: Hawk from Tough Enough 2 and actor James Kyson Lee ("Ando" from Heroes) were both in attendance at the taping.
