Taz and Tenay flipped out as Bully took a mic and said going to jail wasn’t worth it for these guys wasn’t worth it, it is only worth it for Ken Anderson. Bully said for the perception of victory comes the judgement of one’s own salvation. Because we are cool , we are one, there is culture, alienation, boredom and despair.

Sit Down Interview
Mike Tenay Sat with Eric Young and Abyss for a special sit down interview as we see clips from last weeks Monster’s ball match. Tenay said their is still alot of confusion and asked Abyss if he could confirm his real name. Abyss answered Chris Park. Tenay siad from what we know about Abyss he had an abusive childhood before going to prison in his late teens for the shooting of his father, from there it’s is a mystery. Abyss rocked and nodded as Young answered for him saying that 10 years inside caused Chris’ fragile mind to split into a personality that represented what Chris wanted to be inside – Joseph Park. Young said that Chris took the name from his real brother who died in a car accident as a child. Tenay said that Chris then used his new identity to gain a law degree and a practice called Park,Park and Park. and from then on he truly believed he was a lawyer called Joseph. Young said when the company went out of business it again caused more trauma sending Chris into his second personality that of Abyss. Tenay said from then on Abyss became a professional wrestler and TNA Superstar up until January 2012 where he was savagely attacked by Bully Ray . Young explained that the head damaged he suffered triggered the return of Joseph Park who had no memory from when his law firm had collapsed. Tenay said that can we assume that the return of Abyss represents the healing of Abyss and that Chris Park is back to normal. Abyss cut him off and said that nobody knows the real him. Young said that he is friends with both of Abyss’ personalities and that isn’t going to change. Abyss said their is a third side of him the real one, The good – Joseph Park, The Ugly – Abyss and The Bad – Chris Park, and nobody wants to see the real Chris Park

Daniels tapped out giving Aries the win. Afterwards Kazarian ran down but Aries managed to give him a low blow, Chris Sabin ran down next and went after Aries who managed to fight back and throw him to the floor.

We cut backstage where we see Magnus and Dixie furious watching the monitor. Magnus tossed his jacket off and stormed to the ring as Dixie told him to come back.
Magnus came to the ring as Aries told him to bring it on. Sabin grabbed Aries’ leg causing Magnus a chance to attack Aries and gain the advantage.
