Revisiting TNA Wrestling iMPACT! 2010 - Immortal's Thanksgiving Party, Dixie Carter Comes to Dinner, Jeff Jarrett's MMA Dojo
It’s November 25th, 2010 on Thanksgiving for this special episode of TNA Wrestling iMPACT! There is no Turkey Bowl, but we do get a Thanksgiving Party with Immortal. Matt Morgan is the current #1 contender for Jeff Hardy’s TNA World Championship. Because he beat Ric Flair, he gets to choose a special guest referee for their match at the Final Resolution PPV. We don’t find out who his referee is going to be tonight, but he does get challenged to an 8 man elimination tag team match by Immortal for the main event. He teams with Douglas Williams, and they need to find 2 more partners. They search for partners throughout the night and end up convincing Samoa Joe and The Pope D'Angelo Dinero to be on their team. The match goes their way, until Joe and The Pope battle to the back, leaving Matt Morgan all by himself. Eventually, Jeff Hardy gets involved, and the match ends in a no contest. Also, all night Immortal is having a Thanksgiving celebration, and it turns out that Eric Bischoff has invited Dixie Carter to dinner. She does show up at the end of the show and serves them with papers. She says that Hogan doesn’t have signatory rights to sign the talent he has been signing and that she will see them in court. Plus, Madison Rayne has a match with Sarita after a backstage brawl, Jeff Jarrett has an MMA Submission Match with Ink Inc’s Jesse Neal, and Tommy Dreamer and Rhino battle in “The Last Street Fight!” All this and more during a Thanksgiving edition of TNA Wrestling Impact!⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com

Revisiting WWF RAW 1997 Bret Screwed Bret, The Montreal Screwjob Fallout, The Rock Steals The IC Title Belt
WWF Survivor Series 1997 is known for one thing: The Montreal Screwjob. This was the case where Bret Hart was leaving the WWF to join the WCW. At the time, Bret was the WWF Champion, but he didn’t want to lose the WWF Championship in Canada. Especially to Shawn Michaels. During the match, Michaels put Bret Hart in the Sharpshooter. Vince McMahon, who was ringside, ordered referee Earl Hebner to ring the bell even though Bret hadn’t submitted. Shawn Michaels was declared the new WWF Champion. That was The Montreal Screwjob. Now on November 17th, 1997 on WWF Monday Night RAW, the fallout from the infamous incident begins. Vince McMahon sits down in a one on one interview with Jim Ross. During this candid conversation McMahon explains that Bret Hart refused to lose the WWF Championship before leaving the company to join their rival competition, WCW. He said that Bret put himself above the company and that he had no choice but to protect the company. Vince says, “Bret screwed Bret. I have no sympathy whatsoever for Bret.” Also, as the show opens, the Intercontinental Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin calls out The Rock. The Nation of Domination come to the ring and start attacking Stone Cold! The numbers game got to him allowing The Rock to steal the IC Championship Title Belt. In the main event The Rock battles Dude Love in a non title match, but it ends when The Nation of Domaination get involved. Stone Cold makes the save, but The Rock is able to escape with the IC Title. Plus, DX attack Sargent Slaughter leading to a match at the next PPV, Kane destroys The Headbangers, and Vader takes on “The Artist Formerly Known As” Goldust.⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com
