TNA iMPACT Report - Airing July 9th, 2009
Report by Richard Trionfo, PWInsider

We are live on tape from Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and your announcers are Don West and Mike Tenay.

Mick Foley comes to the ring to start things off. Mick says that life can be kind of funny. Maybe you get staples over his eye and you look cool, but you get stitches in your nostril and you look foolish. Mick says that he has been thinking about it and he does not think that TNA is set up to have two separate deciders in the front office. Mick suggests that tonight be the night when one of them step down.

Jeff Jarrett comes to the ring. Jeff asks Mick if he ever thinks about what he says and Mick says that he does not have one of those filtering mechanisms. Jeff acknowledges that they are both competitors and he knows that Mick wants to be back in the middle of things. Jeff reminds Mick that he became the TNA Champion. Jeff asks if the story should have stopped there and he says that it should have but it did not. Jeff says that Mick has put TNA in danger with his desire to get his title back. Jeff says that Mick will always be a true legend in the business regardless of what happens at Victory Road. Jeff asks Mick to do one thing and that is to think about why he came to TNA, the young athletes who need the two of them to co-exist for the good of the company. Jeff asks Mick to think of the future and they could build the company to heights they could never had dreamed of. Jeff tells Mick that it was their dream, but if the Main Event Mafia wins all of the titles, it could be a battle they cannot win.

Mick tells Jeff that he appreciates what he is saying. Mick says that maybe he was stupid to say that he would defend the title once a year. Mick says that they are even, but Jeff is wrong when he says that Mick has nothing to prove. Mick says that he needs to prove something to himself. He needs to prove that the title win was no fluke and he needs to do it against the best wrestler in the world. Mick says that he is going to do it for the right reasons this time. Mick suggests that they have a main event tonight for Kurt Angle to have a tune up match against Jeff Jarrett in a non-title match. Jarrett says that he likes that idea. Jeff wants to up the ante and he wants to tweak things a little. Jeff wants to make it a three way dance with Angle and Jarrett having Mick Foley added to the mix. Mick wants to give Kurt Angle a chance to name the guest referee for the match. Jarrett says that Angle can name the guest referee, but it cannot be a member of the Main Event Mafia or Matt Morgan.
