This one is worth 20 points in the BFG Series and Mike Tenay points out how these four guys have the most experience in Ladder Matches of all the TNA stars.

Main Event Mafia minus Kurt Angle are shown walking backstage.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Backstage Chris Sabin says one of his favorite memories of wrestling as a fan was watching Team 3D put a man threw a flaming table in ECW. He says he knows Bully is vicious and he isn’t taking him lightly, but Bully better not be taking him lightly either. He says no one thought he could beat Bully the first time but he did.

Dixie Carter is in the ring with the Main Event Mafia. Dixie says that two weeks ago Kurt Angle entered a rehab facility and when he will return is in question. She says that Kurt has her complete support and the support of the entire company especially the MEM who are in the ring right now. She asks the fans to join her in support of Kurt and she tells Kurt to hang in there and get back to TNA real soon.

Aces & Eights music cut them off and VP Mr. Anderson leads the crew out to the ring. Anderson says Angle in rehab means MEM only has one week to come up with a replacement for their buddy. Anderson says A&8 are so excited about the bragging rights they could have for ending the pro wrestling career of Rampage Jackson before it even started or ending Samoa Joe’s career which causes Joe to get pissed and want to snap Anderson’s head off. Anderson says after next week Sting may never be able to wrestle again or they may just end the young career of the guy Dixie Carter said would be the future of TNA, Magnus.

Magnus says the only future Anderson needs to concern himself with is his immediate future because his immediate future involves Magnus punching in the mouth. Magnus says he doesn’t have the best hearing but he thinks the fans were just telling Anderson that he sucks which causes the fans to chant “you suck” at him again. Magnus says they may have only one week to find a replacement but he’s pretty sure Norfolk, VA is Mafia country so if they can’t find someone in the back they may be able to recruit someone in the audience. Magnus says one way or the other they can be sure that one of A&8 will be going home with the pink slip next week.

Anderson says tonight starts a new chapter in the book called Aces & Eights because Bully Ray will regain his World Title and then next week they eliminate another member of MEM and they he sucker punches Magnus! A&8 jumps MEM and starts beating them down!

In the back Tito Ortiz is shown arriving.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Non-Title
Knockouts Hardcore Triple Threat
“Hardcore Country” Mickie James vs. ODB vs. Gail Kim

As ODB makes her entrance she levels Mickie on the ramp and then goes after Gail in the ring! ODB clotheslines Gail and then whips Mickie into the corner. ODB hits splashes on both Mickie and Gail and then she climbs up top. ODB starts slamming Mickie’s head into the turnbuckles but Gail runs over to cut her off. Mickie then grabs her by the leg and snatches her off the top slamming her to the mat. Mickie tries to get a high five from Gail but Gail slaps her hand away. Gail starts choking ODB as Mickie grabs a chair. Looks like Mickied changed her hair someway, lighter or something. Gail takes the chair away from Mickie but ODB kicks it into Gail! Mickie then nails ODB with a Hangwoman’s Neckbreaker! Mickie wedges the chair in between the top and middle turnbuckle and then she and Gail slam ODB into it as a “let’s go Mickie” chant starts! Both Gail and Mickie cover ODB and then start shoving each other. Gail then goes to grab ODB but Mickie rolls Gail up from behind! 1…2…NO Gail kicks out! Gail and Mickie exchange forearms and then Mickie catches Gail with a spinning back kick before tossing her out to the floor! ODB hits Mickie with a forearm smash but Gail trips her from the outside and pulls her outside. Gail slams ODB into the floor with a Wheelbarrow Slam! Gail tosses ODB back into the ring and then starts looking under the ring for something. Mickie kicks her from behind and then slams her into the ring post! Mickie grabs a kendo stick and nails ODB in the back with it! Mickie climbs up top and then uses the kendo stick to choke ODB by pulling ODB up with the kendo stick! ODB punches Mickie and then flips her off the top! ODB hits Mickie with the kendo stick and then hits a charging Gail with it! ODB pulls an extra bra out from her gear and chokes Mickie with it! ODB throws Mickie with it and then hangs it around Gail’s neck and tosses her through the ropes hanging her with it! Mickie kicks ODB in the head and then tosses her into the ring post through the turnbuckles! Mickie looks under the ring while Gail puts ODB in the Hanging Figure Four on the post! Mickie starts pulling ODB by the arm at the same time! This pisses Gail off and they start shoving each other again as ODB drinks her liquid courage! She spits it into Mickie’s face and then clotheslines Gail! ODB goes for a BAM but Gail hits her with a kendo stick! Gail swings again but ODB ducks and kicks Gail. ODB grabs the chair and BAM’s Gail onto it! 1…2…3!

Winner: ODB via pinfall (BAM onto a chair)

Sting screams at MEM about needing a replacement and he says that he knows everyone in the group hates “him” but they NEED him. Sting says he’s going to go talk to Austin Aries right now.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Sting approaches Austin Aries in the back and says he needs to talk to him for a minute. Sting says Aries’ plate has been full for the last year with MEM like him and he knows Aries hates Bully Ray too, and he knows Aries is a former World Champion too and he has a nice suit too. He says Main Event Mafia needs Aries and Aries says he does think of himself as the Main Event everytime he comes out. Sting says they don’t have to be friends to have a common enemy and he’s asking to be family and they need him. Aries smiles but doesn’t give an answer.

Clips of the ladder match are shown.

Backstage Bobby Roode says they have changed the landscape of the BFG Series and now Kaz is back in the mix of things, and with a win in the Tables Match Roode will be in 2nd place after looking like he was out of it a few weeks ago. Roode says “it pays to be Roode.”

MEM talk about Aries and Joe says he knows Aries and that might be the problem but this might be their only option. Sting walks in the room and says Aries told him no. Rampage says he has a solution and it’s their only option left. He says he’s going to the ring to address it right now. Sting tells Joe to go out with him and Magnus says he’ll tell Sting all about.

—-COMMERCIAL BREAK—-

Rampage is wearing the goofiest suit I’ve ever seen in my life, a damn camo suit.

Bully Ray is talking to someone on the phone and calls them “honey” and says he knows this hasn’t been a “normal relationship.” He says tonight is about him and next week is “about us.” He says next week they’ll tell the world the truth. He says, “I love you too, Brooke.”

Rampage Jackson comes down to the ring followed by Samoa Joe. That fool really is wearing a camo suit. Rampage says he needs all the fans support because it’s no secret he’s new here. He says when he first came to TNA, MMA fans called him a sellout. Rampage says he hasn’t lost any sleep over it but it just makes him sad that his MMA fans don’t even know him. He says this is why he started wrestling in high school and why he slams people the way he does when he fights. Rampage says he loves TNA and now that he’s a part of the Main Event Mafia he feels like he belongs to a family, but he didn’t come here to get his ass kicked by “punks on a moped.” Rampage says he didn’t want to do this but he needs to ask one of his old training partners and his old friend and even though they have to throw down in November, he needs to call out Tito Ortiz right now.

Tito comes down to the ring and Rampage says everybody knows they’re fighting each other in BELLATOR in November, but right now they’re in TNA and MEM need Tito’s help. Rampage says he helped Tito train for a lot of fights and he never asked him for anything, but he needs this one favor for Tito to help them take A&8 out next week. Rampage says he knows Tito is a bad man and they can make history and they can take over wrestling like they did MMA. Ortiz says he came to TNA to make headlines and he says he was the longest reigning Light Heavyweight Champion in MMA history, but before he can say anything else Bully Ray comes down to the ring. I think they played the wrong music for him though.

Bully Ray taunts them for acting like best friends and then says if he didn’t have to win back his World Title tonight he would come in the ring and beat the piss out of both of them right now. Bully says then there would be no big BELLATOR PPV on November 2nd and then he says he’s already got Rampage’s number. He says he warned Tito last week if he gets in his way or cross him he will make Tito his “Huntington Beach bitch.” That pisses Tito off and he tries to get to Bully but Joe and Rampage hold him down while Bully laughs at him.

Mr. Anderson walks down to the ring and high fives Bully as the Tables Match is up next.

Magnus whips Roode into the corner and charges at him but Roode gets his boots up and then climbs out to the floor and slams Joe into the apron. Roode tosses a table into the ring and then puts the boots to Magnus in the corner.
