Impact Wrestling 3-21-13: Bully Ray Reveals All

On this edition of Impact Wrestling, TNA World Heavyweight Champion and President of Aces & Eights Bully Ray told the whole story behind his 9-month plan to get to where he is right now. Basically, it was all about manipulating the people he used and brainwashing his fellow Aces & Eights members. Also, General Manager Hulk Hogan said that he felt there were four guys in the TNA locker room that really stepped up against Aces & Eights last week and he had them come out to the ring. These four guys were Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle, Samoa Joe, and Magnus. After they were all in the ring, Jeff Hardy proposed an idea to Hogan. That idea was that Hogan put Joe, Angle, Magnus, and Hardy himself in a fatal 4-way match to determine the #1 contender to Bully Ray’s championship and Hulk agreed. Jeff Hardy ended up emerging victorious, thus becoming the #1 contender. Also, a few new twists have been added to the X Division. These twists are that the new weight limit is 230lbs., that every X Division Championship match will now be a triple threat match, that whichever competitor in that match ends up getting pinned or submitted has to go to the back of the line before getting another opportunity at the championship again and that whichever competitor doesn’t end up getting pinned or submitted will take part in the next championship match. Also, Knockouts Executive Brooke Hogan addressed the issues between Gail Kim and Knockouts Referee Taryn Terrell. Taryn Terrell had currently been put on probation for getting physical with Gail Kim during her match at Lockdown (provokingly may I add). Last week, Taryn had violated that probation by once again (provokingly) getting physical with Gail during her match. After serious thought and careful consideration, Brooke had decided to relieve Taryn of her duties as Knockouts Referee and sign Taryn to a contract as a competitor. This means that Taryn can now get physical with the other knockouts in the Knockouts Division without any repercussions. Taryn didn’t waste any time in doing so by spearing Gail Kim nearly out of her shoes. Well, one of my hopes about that situation came true, now Brooke just needs to make a match between Taryn and Gail. Lastly, TNA Hall of Famer Sting once again tried to talk to Hulk about the events that have recently transpired involving Aces & Eights, but it appears that Hogan still has yet to regain his confidence in Sting. One way or another, I think that Hogan will regain his confidence in Sting. Also, I’m predicting that by no later than the end of the year, TNA will be at the point where nobody will ever fear Aces & Eights again.
