Wednesday Night iMPACT! - Impact Wrestling recap for July 15, 2015

Dixie Carter is in the ring, which is surrounded by the TNA roster. She apologizes to the TNA fans and the TNA roster, and does not regret being put through a table by Bully Ray and getting a huge reality check out of it. She asks for the roster's trust in her vision of the future, which is easy to doubt as she has not always held to her promises. Before she can introduce a new leader for TNA, Ethan Carter III and Tyrus show up, asking Dixie who this "farce" is. Dixie then introduces "the man who will become the law": Bully Ray himself. Bully Ray talks about how he came back to TNA, starting with Dixie Carter's apology via telephone, which Bully Ray says was legit. He admits he's been angry with Dixie for the longest time, and says that if he comes back, he's doing it for the fans and the roster. He tells the roster to get up on the roster, as they are not beneath him. He then asks the fans if they want to see him take TNA back to the promised land, and they cheer. He then professionally shakes hands with Dixie Carter and accepts the General Manager position, declares that a fun wrestling show will occur tonight, and then tells Ethan Carter III that he's defending the TNA World Heavyweight Championship tonight. His opponent? The winner of a 20-man battle royale...which happens next.



Drew Galloway wins a 20-man battle royal to determine Ethan Carter III's opponent for his TNA World title defense later tonight, last eliminating Eric Young.

Brooke beats Taryn Terrell to win the TNA Knockouts Championship, ending the longest Knockouts Championship reign ever. This is all thanks to Gail Kim, who shows up when the lights go dark and come back on, takes down Jade and Marti Bell, and then disappears when the lights go dark again.



Kurt Angle talks to Bully Ray. Angle has an idea, and a certain person isn't going to like it...

Kurt Angle shows up. He admits Ethan Carter III has talent, but does not like how EC3 is keeping the world title. He's talked with Bully Ray, who said the rematch never happened. Angle now has another rematch with EC3 for the World title, but it will have to wait until after he has a tumor removed from his neck. Eric Young shows up and says he beat Angle, and that he wants Angle taken out for good. He makes fun of Angle and his neck tumor before attacking him, but Angle fights back and brawls with EY. EY takes Angle down, however, and when Chris Melendez tries to make the save, he ends up taking a piledriver outside of the ring.



We relive "The Cowboy" James Storm vs. Magnus at Slammiversary XIII.

"The Cowboy" James Storm plans to cut Magnus and Mickie James down. As for his tag team partner, it's someone who is very close to Mickie James.

Ethan Carter III wants out of tonight's World title match with Drew Galloway, but Bully Ray tells him to stop bitching and get the job done.

Ethan Carter III retains the TNA World Heavyweight Championship against Drew Galloway when Eli Drake shows up to fight off Tyrus as the referee is down, only to attack Drew Galloway with one of his crutches, revealing he was not injured and signalling a heel turn. After the match, Eli Drake rips his Rising shirt in half, wads it up, spits on it and tosses it towards Galloway.
