[Q1] The opening video aired. Mike Tenay and Don West wondered what Jeff Jarrett's reaction to facing Kurt Angle at Genesis would be. James Storm vs. Abyss on a "Beer Bottle on a Pole" match was announced...

The Main Event Mafia came out to the ring. Kurt Angle cut a promo on Jeff Jarrett and even said he is working in the company he wants to work for. Hmmm. AJ Styles came out and told Sting that he can go home and tell his kids he does things the right way, but asked Sting if he could do the same.

Angle told Styles to come down to the ring. He agreed but wanted the Mafia to leave because it was between him and Sting. They complied. Styles said something to Sting and Sting hit him. The Mafia quickly attacked Styles. Sting sat back. The Frontline came down and ran off the Mafia...

Backstage, Jeff Jarrett said that from this point forward, he is the wrestler Jeff Jarrett and not the TNA founder Jeff Jarrett. He handed the keys to the kingdom to Mick Foley. Foley wished Jarrett luck and said he was going to pay a visit to the Mafia later in the show... [C]

[Q2] Tenay and West ran down the X Division tournament bracket. Backstage, Lauren interviewed the Machine Guns. Shelley says he always tells the truth and if he's lying, he's dying, and he isn't dead yet. He said he was going to win the X Division title because Detroit needs heroes...

Backstage, Brother Ray gave a pep talk to the Frontline. He said they were proud to stand by the Frontline. He called them the last of the old school wrestlers.

[Q3] Jeremy Borash said if you subscribe to TNA mobile, he will text you to tell you who Jay Lethal is going to pick as his tag team partner for his title shot. He then knocked on the door of the Mafia. Mick Foley came out laughing his huge ass off. The Mafia followed, patting Foley on the back and treating him like he was an old friend. Foley said the Mafia were a bunch of great guys but sometimes misunderstood...
