Report by Richard Trionfo, PWInsider
We start off tonight’s show with a look back at the working relationship between Executive Shareholder Mick Foley and the Founder of TNA Jeff Jarrett. Now it has fallen apart since Mick Foley won the TNA Heavyweight Title.
We are live on tape from Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and your announcers are Mike ‘Pepsi’ Tenay and Don ‘Cavalier’ West.
Jeff Jarrett comes to the ring with his mic. Jeff is favoring his injured leg. He tells Mick that there is not a lot for him to say. He could come out and rant and rave like a madman after what happened at the Asylum but that does not change anything. When an action takes place, there needs to be a reaction. Tonight, he is reacting. Four weeks ago, he announced the Four Way Match for Sacrifice. Jarrett mentions that Foley, Sting, and Angle are in the match. There is one slot left, until now. Jeff says that he was backed into the corner to make an executive decision and he is in the match. Jeff says that Mick has caused more turmoil than the Main Event Mafia. Jeff says that he ignited the fire and he is going to put it out. Jeff says that Mick does not deserve to be the champion and he will not walk out of the arena with the title. Jeff tells Mick to have a nice day.
Speaking of Mick Foley, he comes to the ring. Mick says that he will admit when he is wrong and might have had some fun at Jeff’s expense. He says that he might have suggested that Jeff was feigning an injury, but when he heard Jarrett whining like a woman, he heard the hamstring come off the bone. Mick says that he went to the Asylum to make peace. However, something snapped in his head and he remembered how much he hated Jarrett and his old man. Mick tells Jeff to take the belt from his waist. Mick wonders what Jeff will sacrifice at Sacrifice. Mick suggests that Jeff put up his voting shares. Mick starts to walk up the ramp, but Jarrett tells him to turn around. Jeff tells Mick that he worked too hard and too much so he will do whatever it takes to protect himself and TNA. On Sunday, he is all in and Mick has a deal.
Mick suggests making some matches after Jeff grew a set. Why not make sure that all four participants are at their peak on Sunday so they can be in singles matches tonight. Eric Young will face Sting. Matt Morgan will face Kurt Angle. Jeff Jarrett will face Samoa Joe. Mick says that he will face a former world champion who wants a piece of Foley and he can bring it.
We go to Jeremy Borash who is with the Main Event Mafia and Angle is looking for Sting and Steiner tries to calm him down. They go into the hall and Angle is looking for Sting. Steiner tries to stop him. Angle tells Steiner that Sting needs to know his role on Sunday.
