TNA Impact Report
But first, check Jeremy Lambert’s TNA At Ringside, here .
In the RDS studios, Marc Blondin and Pierre-Carl Ouellette introduce us to this week’s Impact edition. TNA Sacrifice is this Sunday. PCO almost spoils the match between AJ and Petey Williams by saying “at Sacrifice, it will be AJ Styles, uh, who will be wrestling Petey Williams on this program, and the winner will face Christopher Daniels”. Blondin shockingly corrects him.
Matt Bently (w. Traci) vs Shark Boy: Bently starts off the attack with forearms to the back. Suplex gets 2. It looks like Traci almost injures her hand by giving Shark a slap. Shark Boy comes back with a knee to Shane’s head and a neckbreaker for 2. Dropkick from the top gets 2. 10-count punch on Shane, which he gets 6. Shark Boy notices Traci on the apron and does what every man dreams of, he bites on Traci’s butt. Superkick by Shane gets him the 1, 2, 3.
