TNA IMPACT RESULTS 2.19.2009

Kurt Angle kicks off TNA with an in-ring promo discussing Sting. He says Sting violated the code for the Main Event Mafia by putting himself first before the family. Angle demands Jeff Jarrett to allow the empty arena match between him and Sting, and then leaves the ring.

Notes: Empty Arena Match. Interesting. Is it really a match if there is not one to cheer?

• Tag Team Street Fight: The Motor City Machineguns defeat Lethal Consequences.
  

Alex Shelley pinned Consequences Creed.

Jeff Jarrett allowed the empty arena match between Kurt Angle and TNA Champion Sting.
Cut to the Main Event Mafia (minus Sting) talking Kurt out of this particular match. Booker T leaves and is at the end of a butt kicking with his wife screaming at the top of her lungs.

The TNA Tag Team Champions Beer Money, Inc. come out into the middle of the ring to issue an open challenge. The stipulation of this open challenge is that the man pinned must leave TNA for good.

Notes: I'm guessing that this open challenge is something similar to what the WWE had done to the hardcore title…the 24/7 stipulation. At least that is what it sounded to me. Anytime. Anywhere….sounds interesting to me!

• Shane Sewell & LAX defeat Matt Morgan, Sheik Abdul Bashir, & Brutus Magnus. Sewell pins Bashir.
  
• Taylor Wilde (accompanied by Roxxi & Governor Palin) defeat Angelina Love (accompanied by Velvet Sky & Cute Kip).
  
  
  

  Notes: Aggghhhh! That Governor Palin impersonation is absolutely terrible! I don't know why TNA is doing this and what purpose it serves for the Knockouts.
  

  
  

  Overall, great match! Love Taylor Wilde! She is probably my second favorite Knockout…ODB being my first favorite!



• TNA Championship Match: Beer Money, Inc. defeat Team Canada (Eric Young & Petey Williams).
  
  
  

  Robert Roode pinned Petey Williams. As a result, Williams' TNA career is officially over.
  

  
  

  Notes: I guess this is no surprise that he would be the one to get pinned, considering that the news of him leaving had leaked. Goodbye Petey! You will be missed.
  

• Empty Arena Match: Kurt Angle vs. Sting.
  
  
  

  Notes: This was an exciting match and so far I am enjoying this storyline between Kurt and Sting. The crowd is led into a room with a monitor screening the match. Kurt Angle and Sting made their way out to the ring with theme music. Why theme music when no one is there? They fought all over the arena. Kurt and Sting come to a stand still. Sting holds up a chair, about to hit Kurt. Kurt yells out he is sorry, repeatedly. Scott Steiner and Kevin Nash come out to get in between the two. Sting shakes Kurt's hand, then Kurt spits in his face. (ooooooo!) Another brawl ensues and the MEM with security guards try to break them up.
  

  
  

  No one wins.
