TNA iMPACT Report - November 5th, 2009
Report by Richard Trionfo, PWInsider.com

We begin with a look at the Hulk Hogan media cavalcade since the signing.

We are live on tape from Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and your announcers are Mike ‘Can I get a part in Thunder in Paradise 2: Electric Brotherloo’ Tenay and Taz.

We see footage of Dixie Carter with the roster in the Impact Zone. She says that it is time for a change. There have been a lot of great things that have taken place, but it is time for a change. She says that some people might have differing opinions, but she expects them to support her 100%. She says that when you question her, you question the company. She tells everyone that you can support her, support the direction of the company, or you can do otherwise and look for some place else to work. She asks everyone to step it up because it is their time to move up to the next level.

A.J. Styles comes to the ring. He says that there have been a few changes in TNA, but he wants to make one thing clear. He points out that he is the TNA champion. He says that there have been positive changes since he won the title. Who would have thought that Hulk Hogan would be part of the TNA family. A.J. says that he has dreamed about being at this level the entire seven years he has been here. He says that with the positives, there are negatives. A.J. says that he made it clear that he was a fighting champion. The only problem is that someone has been lurking in the shadows to jump him when they have the opportunity. A.J. wants that person to come to the ring and man up. He does not care if that person is foe or friend.

Daniels comes to the ring and he gets in A.J.’s face. He tells A.J. that it is interesting that he would say foe or friend. A.J. says that he does not have to explain anything to him. Daniels wants to know how A.J. could think that it was him who attacked A.J. because of something that Joe said. Daniels asks if A.J. is gullible or stupid. Daniels calls A.J. arrogant with the title on his shoulder. Daniels says that A.J. has been given opportunity after opportunity to be the face and future of the company. He says that A.J. has been pampered, coddled, and spoiled. He says that A.J. has always gotten special treatment. Daniels points out that they came into the company at the same time and he was never handed anything. Daniels says that he is every bit the wrestler that A.J. is. Daniels says that the fans and even A.J. knows that. The only difference is that every time A.J. was down, the company helped him up. Every time he was up, the company pushes him down. Daniels talks about Dixie Carter’s comments about change in TNA. Daniels says that if he looks at someone the wrong way in the back it will be seven more years of hell for him.

A.J. says that Daniels has never said anything to him like that. A.J. asks Chris if there isn’t anything that he can’t say to him.

Samoa Joe comes out and he tells A.J. that there is a lot that Daniels cannot say to A.J. because Daniels is working him. He calls Daniels a bald faced liar. Joe says that these are hard truths but Daniels has always lied to A.J. because he has always been jealous of A.J. and will always be jealous. They are not friends because A.J. has something that Joe wants. In order to be the best, you have to be TNA champion. Joe says that he has no problem telling that to A.J. face to face and man to man. He does not have to attack A.J. from behind like a cowardly punk.

Daniels says that he can beat A.J. in the ring, face to face and doesn’t have to attack him from behind. A.J. asks Daniels how bad he wants to find out. A.J. tells Daniels that if he wanted a piece of him, all he had to do was ask. He tells Daniels that they can settle this tonight. He tells Daniels that they can take care of it and there can be a winner and a loser. They shake hands and Joe has a dastardly smirk on his face.
