Impact Coverage

January 30, 2015

“The ‘It’ Factor” Bobby Roode enters the Impact Zone carrying the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.

Roode says the championship he’s holding doesn’t belong to him, but that it means more to him than anything in the world. He says he lives for professional wrestling – and that on January 7, the championship was stolen from him, by his former best friend Eric Young.

Roode declares he won’t rest until spilling Eric Young’s blood. He invites Lashley to the ring, saying he has something that belongs to him – but also something he wants.

Roode gives Lashley the championship and says that Lashley’s earned his respect by standing up to MVP, Eric Young and the other goons. Roode demands a rematch – tonight! Lashley agrees.

Austin Aries, with his “Feast or Fired” briefcase in hand, interrupts Roode’s call for a referee. Aries says he’s the man with the most options. He says he can have a World Heavyweight Championship match any time, any place.

As Aries considers his options, MVP makes his way toward the ring, addressing them all. MVP says the title belongs to The BDC. MVP says Lashley should defend against him. Lashley agrees – and says he’ll defend his title against all three, tonight!

Backstage: Kurt Angle says he’s going to assemble a team to battle The BDC next week.
