IMPACT tonight comes to us from the Verizon Arena in Little Rock, and we'll be getting the fallout from what happened on last week's show with AJ Styles and Dixie Carter.
At the end of last week's IMPACT, Styles called out Carter's failings as the president of TNA, including disposing of stars such as Jerry Lynn, Low Ki and Alex Shelley, in favour of MMA stars and "people from other companies who take a two year paid vacation before going home". Styles then said that he will win the TNA World Heavyweight Title from Bully Ray at Bound For Glory on October 20th, he will make Carter get down on her knees, make her pay and make her beg...
And then Carter came out. Dixie then proceeded to call Styles average, that "The Phenomenal One" is an illusion, and that he's lucky to receive paycheques from the Carter family, before turning the lights out on the show.
So what happens next? Will Styles be fired and not get his shot at Bully Ray? And how will IMPACT GM Hulk Hogan respond to this situation?
In six-man action this week, Main Event Mafia members Sting, Samoa Joe and Magnus will do battle once again with the Aces & Eights, represented by Knux, Garett Bischoff and Wes Brisco. There continues to be dissention in Bully Ray's gang, can the MEM take advantage of it tonight?
The X-Division Title is on the line tonight, as Manik defends the title against former World Heavyweight Champion Chris Sabin, who turned on Manik last week. Will Sabin's change in attitude lead him to more gold (albeit a lower level than the gold he held a couple of months ago), and how has his girlfriend Velvet Sky reacted to his actions?
There will be a second trios match on the show this week, as new Knockouts Champion ODB teams with Eric Young and Joseph Park to take on the Bro Mans... who as of writing have not found a Knockout to team with. Given that Mickie James departed the company after losing the title to ODB last week, there's not many options for Robbie and Jessie.
