Wednesday Night iMPACT! - Impact Wrestling recap for June 24, 2015

Ethan Carter III tells Jeremy Borash that Kurt Angle's opponent tonight is a "TNA institution."

Kurt Angle enters the ring. He tells Ethan Carter III his run for the World title is coming to an end. He tells EC3 to bring out his mystery opponent right now, but only EC3 and Tyrus show up. After saying he will take the title from him in seven days, Angle tells him to shut up so he can get the match over with, but EC3 continue to talk about how he's beaten everyone TNA has put in front of him, but it only convinces Angle that EC3 is in love with himself, and Angle promises to end his undefeated streak next week and make him tap. Ethan Carter III is in the mood to fight after that, but it's all a tease as he brings out the opponent he's picked for Angle tonight...Matt Hardy.

Tigre Uno beats Low Ki and Grado to win the TNA X Division Championship! Tigre Uno tells Christy Hemme that this is the greatest night of his life.




Bram interrupts Jeremy Borash to say he's calling out another TNA legend tonight. After Bram leaves, a finger gloved hand touches JB's shoulder. JB looks at the man, who is not seen, and tells him "It's time."

Taryn Terrell yells at Jade and Marti Bell for their failure last week, then declares that at Slammiversary, it will be the three of them versus Brooke and Awesome Kong in a 3-on-2 match.

Velvet Sky beats Angelina Love and earns the right to return to TNA full-time.


The Dirty Heels (Austin Aries and Bobby Roode) aren't happy with the Full Metal Mayhem stipulation, but they're still certain they can use the lack of rules to stay in the series and break The Wolves (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards) in half.

Who will bring balance in a world on the razor's edge? Play time is over...

MVP is back. The Beat Down Clan (MVP, Low Ki, Kenny King, Homicide) may have lost to The Rising (Drew Galloway, Eli Drake, Micah), but they're back up and they're not done yet.

The Dirty Heels (Austin Aries and Bobby Roode) beat The Wolves (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards) in a Full Metal Mayhem match to tie the Best of Five Series up at two wins each.



Jeremy Borash interviews Matt Hardy when Ethan Carter III shows up. Matt Hardy shuts him up when

Jeff Jarrett and his wife Karen suddenly show up, much to the surprise of Josh Mathews and D'Angelo Dinero. Jeff is wearing a Global Force Wrestling T-shirt. A week ago, he was promoting a GFW show when TNA contacted him with a proposal. That proposal is a match, and not just any match. It's a King of the Mountain Match, and it's at Slammiversary this Sunday. Jarrett rattles off the names of wrestlers who became TNA legends, then hands the mike to Karen so she can air her reaction. She was against this at first, but she supported Jeff, who she says didn't leave TNA the way he wanted to go out. Jarrett says he's in the match Sunday, and says he's going to come out on top in TNA one last time.




Bram's opponent is none other than Vader.

Vader beats Bram by disqualification when Bram hits him with the steel turnbuckle. Bram continues to attack him when he is attacked by none other than "The Blueprint" Matt Morgan, who hasn't been seen in TNA in almost two years.


Eric Young beats Chris Melendez.


The Rising (Drew Galloway, Eli Drake, Micah) and The Beat Down Clan (MVP, Kenny King, Low Ki) are brawling in the ring as soon as we come back from commercials, and the BDC bring out a new secret weapon: Hernandez, who also hasn't been in TNA for a while.


Kurt Angle beats Matt Hardy with the Ankle Lock Submission. After the match, Ethan Carter III and Tyrus show up, and Matt Hardy fights them both off long enough so that Angle can fight back and put EC3 in the Ankle Lock Submission to end the show.


After the show, it is revealed that the contract signing segment involving "The Cowboy" James Storm and Magnus was not shown on television because their match is that personal. Their match is non-sanctioned, which means anything goes, the referee is only there to call the bell, and that nobody can be held liable for what happens.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for June 24, 2015

Hideo Itami shows up for the first time since NXT Takeover: Unstoppable. He'll be out for three or four months, and he'll be at the July 4th event in Tokyo. Kevin Owens shows up and says he's happy for Hideo, but says he's leaving Tokyo with the title as he makes it all about him. He also botches one of his lines, but makes fun of said botch by saying it sounded like Itami trying to speak English. He then wants an apology from Itami for saying he's a bad person, but Itami tells him he's both a great champion and a terrible human being. Owens decides to injure Hideo's other arm, and is about to get in the ring when Finn Balor shows up and stops him. Before Balor can hit the coup de grace on Owens, Rhyno shows up from out of nowhere and attacks Balor.

Finn Balor vs Rhyno is announced as tonight's main event.

Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady beat Jason Jordan and Sylvester Lefort. It becomes obvious as Jordan and Sylvester argue that they won't be teaming up again any time soon.


Samoa Joe makes it clear he plans to make it so that Kevin Owens gets the beating of a lifetime.

Dana Brooke beats Cassie.

Charlotte tells Devin Taylor that she has no idea what Dana Brooke's problem is, but says that the next opportunity she gets, she's kicking Dana's ass.

We see Part 2 of "Who Is Finn Balor?" It involves his time in Japan, which includes his friendship with Jason Albert, intense training, his transition to NXT...and Legos.




Bull Dempsey has been ordered by William Regal to get back into shape...but it appears that isn't going well at all.

Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley (now known as The Hype Bros) beat Angelo Dawkins and Sawyer Fulton.

Eva Marie is still wanting that first NXT match from William Regal.

Kevin Owens guests on commentary for the next match.

Finn Balor beats Rhyno. After the match, Owens attacks Finn Balor, and it becomes a 2-on-1 when Rhyno joins in. Samoa Joe rushes in to save Finn Balor to end the show.
