TNA Impact Wrestling
Feb. 21, 2013
Hulk Hogan kicks off Impact Wrestling, and the general manager makes his way to the ring to a warm reaction from the London crowd. The Hulkster says he feels at home in the UK, and wanted to thank them for their feedback on who should be the #1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship. He says the man he has in mind stood out above the rest, and is obviously the man for the job…Bully Ray.
The Bully says he doesn't understand Hulk's decision, as he's injured and suffered a partially torn quad muscle in his tables match against the Aces & Eights. He thanks him for the shot, and says all he wants to do is make Hulk and Brooke proud, and he will win the World Heavyweight Championship. He then proposes a 6-man tag match between the Aces & Eights, and himself, Sting and…Hulk Hogan!
(1) Bobby Roode, Austin Aries, Kazarian & Christopher Daniels vs. Hernandez, Chavo Guerrero, James Storm & Joseph Park
"The Cowboy" slaps the taste out of Christopher Daniels' mouth as things get started, followed by a big back body drop to send him flying out of the ring. The heels throw James storm to the outside, and all hell breaks loose as they head to a commercial break. As they come back, Kazarian is working over Joseph Park with ease. Roode tags in and he and Austin Aries fail to hit the big man with a double suplex. The Champions argue back and forth, until Daniels tags himself in to stop Park from escaping to his corner.
Roode and Aries leave the ring, ditching Bad Influence and leaving them at the mercy of the four faces left in the ring. James Storm gets the Last Call Superkick on Kazarian, followed by a Frog Splash by Chavo, and a second rope splash from Joseph Park. 1…2…3.
Winners: Joseph Park, Chavo Guerrero, Hernandez & James Storm
