TNA Impact Results
February 17th, 2011
Immortal makes their way out to the ring minus Jeff Jarrett & Jeff Hardy. Bischoff grabs a microphone and introduces the new World Heavyweight Champion: Jeff Hardy. Bischoff says Jeff Hardy is living proof that you can take Fortune out of Immortal, but you can't take greatness out of the Antichrist. He says that Hardy did what he had to do to prove what Immortal is and once again they are living large. He tells the crowd to give it up for Hardy but he gets a chorus of boos instead. We cut to the parking lot where Ric Flair is arriving! Bischoff says everyone thought that Immortal was depleted and on it's last leg but they are back on track. Bischoff says Gunner, Murphy, & Terry went toe-to-toe with Steiner & Beer Money and claims they were the better athletes (even though they lost). Bischoff then says Matt Hardy proved what he has against RVD and he'll do it again against AJ Styles tonight. Bischoff says that they had talked about Jeff taking some time off after the Ladder Match but he proved to everyone just what kind of athlete he is at AAO. So much so that the network (Spike TV) called him and said that they know Jeff Hardy is ratings and because of that they want to see Hardy defend the title against RVD tonight! Jeff doesn't seem too thrilled. Bischoff says he will talk to the network but that's the plan for tonight and he knows Jeff can get the job done. Bischoff says we have one more piece of business to get out of the way. He says everything is in place for Immortal and he says Jeff Jarrett is planning his wedding renewal vows right now, but the only thing left up in the air is Ric Flair. He says he's been calling Flair nonstop but he never answers. Bischoff says he went to bat for Ric Flair to bring him into Immortal and convinced Hogan that Flair was good for them. He says he was starting to question Flair and he gives him until next week to come out and explain himself.
Flair's music hits and he makes his way out to the ring. He says he and Bischoff have a track record a mile long and the guys in the ring grew up on Ric Flair, but Bischoff nor anyone else tells Flair what to do or how to do it. Flair congratulates Jeff on his win and says he and the Hardyz are tight and after 25 years of hating each other's guts, he and Hogan were getting tight, but now Bischoff is questioning his integrity. He reemphasizes that he is a wrestling GOD and he says in Europe they were chanting "GOD" at him. Flair says when they start calling Bischoff God then he can talk to him. Flair says he will break the family together or he'll separate it and that's the power of being the Nature Boy, and on that note he'll see Bischoff later.
In the back AJ Styles and Matt Hardy brawl around backstage and then Gunner & Murphy and then the rest of Fortune join in! Rob Terry and Scott Steiner join in as well before security finally breaks it up.

Angelina Love runs out and makes the save for Velvet Sky as the 4 women brawl around ringside. Hernandez chokes Williams with his shirt again and then we see the Knockouts brawl to the back.

Back from commercials The Pope is in the ring with a smoke pig on a table. Pope introduces himself to the crowd and says many refer to him as the "Cadillac of Professional Wrestling." Pope says in this world it is the survival of the fittest and what stands before us is the fittest and what lies before us (the pig) is a "Sloppy Joe." He says that he was like a lion in the Serengeti and he chased down the biggest, fattest hog he could find. Pope says that he is going to take us back over 10,000 years ago to when Jesus performed a miracle. Pope says he is going to perform a miracle as well and feed everyone with one Sloppy Joe. Pope says he knows everyone doesn't believe him but Ronald Regan and Michael Jackson believe in pope, and then he checks his phone and says "whoops, that was Jesus he believes in Pope too." Pope grabs a knife and asks who wants to be the first to partake in this feast with the Pope, but then he stops and says it'll cost the fans 10 bucks a pop.
Joe's music hits and he walks down to the ring and screams at Pope. Pope doesn't know that Okada is on the ring apron behind him! Pope turns around to run away but eats a kick from Okada as he turns around! Joe comes into the ring and then tosses Pope into the corner and begins the beating! Joe hits some vicious strikes before lifting Pope up onto the top rope and then dropping through the table with a Muscle Buster! Joe then picks up an apple and shoves it in Pope's mouth.

Kaz comes out and says as an O.G. of the X-Division and a member of Fortune he made a promise when he won the belt he would bring the X-Division back to the forefront of TNA. Kaz says TNA was built on the foundation the X-Division laid. Kaz says it maybe wasn't as much foundation as what's on Cookie's face right now but he gets the point. He says if Robbie wants to be a part of that then he can take his "sloppy little treasure troll" and send her to the back and they can have a match. Robbie agrees and sends Cookie to the back.

Mr. Anderson's music hits and he makes his way out to the ring. He grabs a microphone and tells Bischoff to be a man and get his butt out to the ring. Bischoff comes out to the ring and Anderson says he just found out that RVD is getting a title shot tonight. Anderson says he was under the distinct impression the champ was the first in line for a rematch, but Bischoff says Jeff Hardy is the CHAMP in case Anderson missed it. He says he doesn't like the RVD vs. Hardy match but that was the network and they demanded it. Anderson asks since when does the network have a say in TNA. Bischoff tells him to give him some space and then says this is the TV business and Impact is a television show. He says since the network writes the checks then they write the rules which means if they want to see a match between Jeff Hardy & RVD because they think it will deliver ratings then that's what they get. Anderson says if they want ratings, put Anderson in the ring. He says maybe they didn't tap Anderson for a rematch tonight because of his language and violence. He says that maybe Anderson isn't hitting those core demographics of young males so maybe if Anderson PG'd himself down a little bit and made himself a little more family friendly they would want Anderson in a rematch. Bischoff says he can't change what Spike wants tonight but he has an idea. He makes Anderson the special referee for the Title Match. He says Sunday Hardy proved he was the better man and before he can beat Jeff one-on-one he can't prove anything. He says Anderson needs to call it right down the middle tonight, stand in line, and then get his shot. He offers a handshake to Anderson and he shakes Bischoff's hand, but then he hits Bischoff with the Mic Check! Anderson tells Bischoff to tell the network he will have his rematch one way or another.

Winners: Sarita & Rosita
Velvet gets on the mic and says she's had it with Sarita. She says everyone knows she's had Sarita beat and the only way she can pin Velvet is by cheating. She says they're going to end this once and for all. No outside interference, no cheating. Sarita asks Velvet if she has any idea what kind of joke she is. She says she beats Velvet every time and she's a loser. Sarita says if she wants her again she has to up the ante a little bit.

We see Kurt Angle walking in the parking lot and he says he's going to Karen & Jeff's little dinner party. He says he wouldn't miss it for the world.
Back from the break Madison Rayne is talking with Tara and she says after brushing Mickie away like the fly she is. She says she's getting bored with the other Knockouts so she went to TNA Management and issued an open challenge to any woman in the world that wants to try and dethrone her. Tara sarcastically says that's awesome.
We cut to Scott Steiner who says that Rob Terry wants a "Pose Down" with him but the only thing that's going down his fist down Rob Terry's throat.
Back at Jeff and Karen dinner apparently the meal wasn't as good as they hoped it would be. They toast to Kurt walking Karen down to the ring and then Karen complains about the wine. Jeff starts complaining to the chef and he screams for the boss, but then Kurt Angle busts through the door and Jeff runs away. Kurt then asks "what? No tip?"
RVD says he's been waiting 6 months for this shot and tonight his foot meets Jeff's face and getting back his title is just a bonus, tearing apart Hardy is the focus.
Bully Ray walks out to the announce table and tells them to take a time out. Ray looks at Tenay and asks Tenay if he got it right that what he did to Devon's kid was so disgusting that Spike won't even show it. Bully laughs and says that's music to his ears, but he only has one regret and that's that he didn't have 2 tables to put his other kid through a table. Taz yells at him and says he crossed a line Sunday and he needs to get out of here. Bully says not Taz nor anyone else can tell him what to do and he'll walk away when he wants to. Bully says if he wants to smack Tenay too he will but Taz says he's not smacking anyone and tells him to walk away. Bully says the kids didn't belong in the ring and he taught them a lesson so they won't grow up like their father, weak and a loser. He then slaps the headset off of Tenay's head and walks away.

We see Kurt Angle walking in the parking lot and he says he's going to Karen & Jeff's little dinner party. He says he wouldn't miss it for the world.
Back from the break Madison Rayne is talking with Tara and she says after brushing Mickie away like the fly she is.

Tara sarcastically says that's awesome.
We cut to Scott Steiner who says that Rob Terry wants a "Pose Down" with him but the only thing that's going down his fist down Rob Terry's throat.
Back at Jeff and Karen dinner apparently the meal wasn't as good as they hoped it would be. They toast to Kurt walking Karen down to the ring and then Karen complains about the wine.

RVD says he's been waiting 6 months for this shot and tonight his foot meets Jeff's face and getting back his title is just a bonus, tearing apart Hardy is the focus.
Bully Ray walks out to the announce table and tells them to take a time out. Ray looks at Tenay and asks Tenay if he got it right that what he did to Devon's kid was so disgusting that Spike won't even show it. Bully laughs and says that's music to his ears, but he only has one regret and that's that he didn't have 2 tables to put his other kid through a table. Taz yells at him and says he crossed a line Sunday and he needs to get out of here. Bully says not Taz nor anyone else can tell him what to do and he'll walk away when he wants to. Bully says if he wants to smack Tenay too he will but Taz says he's not smacking anyone and tells him to walk away. Bully says the kids didn't belong in the ring and he taught them a lesson so they won't grow up like their father, weak and a loser. He then slaps the headset off of Tenay's head and walks away.
