411’s IMPACT WRESTLING REPORT 10.08.14
* Match times are not exact.

* Highlights of the tag team title series, which will finish up tonight.

* Bobby Roode makes his way to the ring. Roode says he wants to make something clear, and that is that he will not give up on his dream of becoming TNA Champion. He asked Lashley for one more match last week, but he had to listen to MVP give the answers. Roode will stand there until Lashley comes out and gives him his answer. MVP and Kenny King make their way out to the ring. MVP says he thought they spoke English in Canada, or maybe they do and Roode is too stupid to understand. Roode says he wants to talk with Lashley. MVP says Roode got his chance and he lost, just like Hardy, Aries and Young lost when they challenged Lashley. MVP says the answer is still no. Roode cuts them off before they leave and asks them how their drive to the building was. MVP says uneventful. Roode asks if they were driving Lashley’s car and fed him drinks. Roode says he knows what it is like to be the champion and that’s why he wants the rematch. But MVP and King are lackeys. Hanging around the champion, being his friends because they don’t have what it takes to be champion. Roode will do whatever it takes to be the champion. MVP says he won’t stir up shit between them, and King says that Roode would do whatever it took. MVP and king have a conference, and then say that they can give Roode an opportunity. If he can beat King and himself tonight, at the same time that is. But then MVP says there is a catch, if Roode loses, “when he loses” Roode never gets a title shot. MVP asks if he’s willing to do whatever it takes, and agrees.

* Highlights of Havok winning the Knockouts Title last week.

* Gail Kim is not cleared to compete tonight.

Tonight, he gives Rockstar Spud the chance to make things right. Spud makes his way out to the ring, and Carter says he has failed him. But he will give him a chance to redeem himself tonight. Spud says that he has apologized for what happened to Dixie. Spud says he is his best friend, but Carter says that Spud needs to prove it. Spud says he will, because he knows everything about him. Carter loves green because he loves money. The thermostat at the hotel needs to be 71 degrees. He hates when the crowd tells him that he cannot wrestle. “He disagrees, he thinks he is very good.” Carter says that is why Spud is such a loyal employee. But as the employer, he cannot forgive that Dixie went through the table. Spud was operation human shield, and when he was needed the most, he fainted, and then failed.
