Welcome to our WrestlingINC.com Live Impact Viewing Party. We will be providing live ongoing coverage of tonight’s show, while you all can chime in with your thoughts throughout the show.

The Pope and Josh Matthews give a recap of the World Title Series so far.

In a roundtable promo, Austin trashes EC3. Anderson says Lashley will do well because he’s a powerhouse. Lashley compliments Anderson too. EC3 is pretty heelish but somewhat praises everyone else’s talents.

Ken Anderson vs. Austin Aries

Thea Trinidad is out with Aries again. The two guys lock up. Aries gets a headlock into Anderson. Anderson shoves him off. Anderson hits the drop kick on Aries and goes for the pin but can barely get a one count from the ref. Anderson talks on the split-screen about travelling the road with Aries on the indies. Amusingly, Carter doesn’t seem to know what the indies even are, and Austin has to tell him. Anderson tries to charge but Austin gets out of the way and Anderson heads for the floor. Austin then goes for the dive but misses. Anderson goes after Austin’s arm in the ring. Aries tries a school boy but Anderson is able to get out of it.

Winner: Tigre Uno

Clips from Bound for Glory’s Ethan Carter III vs. Drew Galloway vs. Matt Hardy main event play. It was a great match and, honestly, most people probably didn’t purchase the show or watch it when it was on, so this is a good way to ensure a wider audience sees it.

EC3 promo. He complains about the World Title Series. He says Dixie and the rest of his family aren’t in his corner. He vows to beat Lashley tonight, regardless.

TNA plays highlights of Jessie Godderz vs. Crimson. Godderz wins with the Adonis Crab and gets 3 points. Highlights of Eli Drake vs. Micah play. It ends on a draw, due to a double countout on the floor, and now each man is at 1 point.

We see a Godderz promo. He says his Adonis crab finisher is the most dangerous move in the game. He says he was the lead of the Bro Man team. He trashes Eli Drake and says all he is capable of is running his mouth. Godderz calls himself an Adonis and vows to be the next world champion.

DJZ vs. Manik

Manik won with the press and kick after Zema missed a Tornado DDT and now has three points in the world title series. OK match but there wasn’t much time for them to show off. Manik has a strange new costume and mask. Josh told us he was having an identity crisis or something.

Winner: Manik

Bobby Lashley vs. Ethan Carter III

Tyrus is out with Carter, per usual. Carter is trying to avoid Lashley practically before the match can even begin. Staredown between Tyrus and Lashley. Carter reluctantly gets back into the ring.
