1. Doug Williams defeated Gunner. Williams came out to Gunner's video. Williams won with roll up German suplex.

2. Crimson fought Samoa Joe to a double DQ. There were "You screwed Bret" chants for referee Earl Hebner. Joe big time played to the crowd. There was a Double DQ for Joe using chair. Both men fought to the back.

3. Austin Aries defeated Alex Shelley and Mark Haskins to retain the X Division Title. Haskins is from Nottingham. He hit an RKO on Aries for near fall. Aries hit a brainbuster on Haskins for the win. Great ovation for Haskins.

4. Gail Kim defeated Tara, Madison Rayne, and Mickie James in a four-way to retain the TNA Knockouts Championship. Gail hit Tara with the title behind the ref's back for the pin after Tara had hit the Widow's Peak on Rayne.

Intermission

Christy Hemme was out shaking her ass to restart the show.

5. A.J. Styles defeated Bully Ray. I was excited to see Ray and even more excited to see Styles. There was another "You screwed Bret" chant for Hebner. The fans cheered Christy Hemme and irritated Bully. After 10 minutes, they finally a locked up.
AJ hit Bully's head into a fan's boot. Yes, really. It was back and forth until AJ won with a roll up. Bully attacked AJ with chain after the bell.

6. James Storm beat Robert Roode by DQ in a TNA Title match. Roode was disqualified for a low blow. Out came Sting. Kurt Angle was out next followed by Bully Ran and then...wait for it...The Immortal Hulk Hogan.

7. Hulk Hogan, Sting, and James Storm defeated Bobby Roode, Kurt Angle, and Bully Ray in a six-man tag. Hogan set up a Storm leg drop for the pin. The winners posed for the crowd to end of the show. Brilliant.

Christy Hemme announced that they would be back at the same time next year.
