TNA Impact Opener:
[Q1] Highlights of Sting's return and heel turn from last week were shown. His quick loss to and beating of Rob Van Dam was featured. The show ending angle with Hulk Hogan, Abyss, A.J. Styles, Ric Flair, Desmond Wolfe, The Pope, and the returning Jeff Hardy closed the highlight package...

A brown Hummer pulled up and Hogan, Abyss, Hardy, and RVD exited together. Abyss was driving. The new opening video and music aired, and RVD was added to it, and fireworks lit up the Impact Zone. A.J. Styles and Ric Flair made their way to the ring...

With Flair standing solemnly next to him, Styles cut a promo belittling Abyss for believing a "magic ring" could assist him in becoming the TNA World Heavyweight Champion on Sunday. Styles recalled past matches between the two and called himself a gift from God. The fans chanted "Turn his mic off." Ouch.

Flair took the mic and admittedly was out of control. He took off his suit jacket and made reference to his ground beef forehead. Flair made himself bleed heavily and said he hated Jeff Hardy. He called Styles the champ and himself the boss. He called out Hardy and he obliged, complete with a Jericho and Christian-like countdown video.

Hardy had skeleton-like face paint and a stylish cap on. Styles screamed at Hardy and asked him who the hell he thought he was. He called him a nobody. Flair got in his face too. Styles challenged Hardy to a match tonight. The fans chanted "Hardy" and Jeff pointed at them.

Hardy said it would be "a breeze." Flair went nuts and told Hardy to "get high" backstage. Hardy said he would be "flying high on the backs of his creatures of the night." He let out a wolf howl/woooo as the lights went out and his music played. He posed for the crowd...

Backstage, Mick Foley approached Eric Bischoff about what happened last week. Bischoff was pissed at Foley and said tonight Foley would have his head shaved so he will look "more corporate." Foley said his look was his trademark. Bischoff replied, "Not anymore it's not." ... [C]

Jeremy Borash interviewed Scott Hall and Syxx Pac. Hall was wearing that hilarious TNA sweatshirt with "Wolfpac" written on it. Hall said they would win on Sunday and as a result, earn TNA contracts. Kevin Nash and Eric Young approached them.

Nash challenged Hall to "five minutes" on tonight's show and offered him $25,000 if he could beat him. Hall accepted and Nash made a joke about expensive health care...

[Q3] Mr. Anderson and Desmond Wolfe entered to Anderson's music. Kurt Angle and Pope came out to Angle's music...

After the match, Wolfe attacked Pope and they fought up the ramp. Anderson attacked Angle and left him laying. He took Angle's "warrior medal" and drove it into the forehead of Angle. Anderson grabbed his house mic and delivered a promo right into Angle's very bloody face. He then hit him with the microphone over and over...

In Hogan's office, he addressed Jeff Hardy and Rob Van Dam. Apparently, they had been talking already. Hogan told Hardy to take care of Styles and not worry about Flair. He made sure Hardy, RVD, and him were all on the same page. They thanked Hogan and left.

Bischoff entered Hogan's office and was a bit miffed that Hogan brought in Hardy and RVD without telling him. Hogan said Bischoff had other things going and that they were a team. Eric reluctantly said Hogan made a "great call" and that they were cool. Hogan said "that was weird." ...

[Q4] Angelina Love made her entrance. TBP came out to the ramp and Velvet Sky and said Love would face "an honorary member of The Beautiful People." Daffney came from under the ring and attacked Angelina...

He called him a coward and had the camera shoot up in to the rafters. Sting was shown walking around the catwalk and Hogan said he was scared to face him eye to eye.

RVD attacked Sting from behind and beat on him around the ring as Hogan watched from the ring. RVD and Hogan did their poses.

[Q5] Van Dam continued the onslaught as the crowd chanted "RVD." Van Dam threw Sting's bat to Hogan and rolled Sting into the ring as well. Hogan was going to hit Sting with the bat but was stopped by Bischoff. "What are you doing? What the hell are you doing?" Bischoff said Hogan was there to lead the company, not to wrestle.

Eric called for security to escort Sting from the ring and to safety. He berated Hogan and reminded him he made a promise to Brooke that he would stay out of the ring. "Be done with it, be done with it Hulk." Bischoff left, Hogan soaked in the moment, and hugged Brooke at ringside...

Backstage, Hernandez told Jeff Jarrett he remembered who gave him his first shot and that he had Jarrett's back against Beer Money. Bischoff was listening and then interrupted. He placed Hernandez in a handicap match with Beer Money and made Jarrett the referee. He said if Jarrett messed up, he was done with the company... [C]
