- TNA newcomer Sean Morley upset Daniels, beating him with his top rope splash for the pin and win. Daniels hit Morley with all of his high-octane offense, but Morley countered him at every turn.

- In a bout filled with plenty of back-and-fourth action and submission skills, Desmond Wolfe got the win with a vicious lariat after The Pope missed a knee in the corner. After hitting the big clotheslines, Wolfe covered Dinero for the pin. Wolfe was accompanied to the ring by a beautiful brunette.
- Backstage, Eric Bischoff told Jeremy Borash he would no longer be conducting interviews as punishment for helping Mick Foley. Instead, he handed the duties over to Christy Hemme, who interviewed the arriving "Nature Boy" Ric Flair, who said he would let everyone know when he was ready why he came to TNA!
- Next up, Beer Money took on the team of Kevin Nash and Sean Waltman! During the bout, Scott Hall came out from the back and distracted Beer Money, allowing Nash and Waltman to gain the advantage. However, Hall went after a fan at ringside, resulting in Waltman trying to calm Hall down. Inside the ring, Nash went for a powerbomb, but Storm superkicked Nash and sent him into a follow-thru by Roode for the pin and the win! After the bout, Nash wasn't very happy with Waltman and Hall.
- Up next, it was time for the debut of the major acquisition...who turned out to be MR. ANDERSON! It was a familiar entrance for the new TNA Superstar, who spoke about crossing the line and coming to Total Nonstop Action! However, his first bout would be a challenge as he faced "The Monster" Abyss! In the end, after hitting his "Shock Treatment" on Anderson, Abyss went to the outside to use a chair from a fan. However, Anderson took brass knuckles from his tights and smashed Abyss with them after the referee took the chair away from Abyss. Mr. Anderson comes to TNA Wrestling and wins his debut against Abyss!
- In an amazing main event match, AJ Styles successfully defended the TNA World Heavyweight Championship against Kurt Angle...with unexpected help from Ric Flair! After Angle had Styles trapped in the Ankle Lock, Flair pulled the referee from the ring. Later, Flair threw Styles the World Title, and uncharacteristic of AJ, he used it to knock Angle out! Flair threw referee Earl Hebner back in the ring to register the three count! A very controversial finish to the main event, with AJ Styles using Flair's questionable tactics to get the win! After the bout, AJ and Flair celebrated in the ring and even strutted up the entrance ramp!

As seen this past Thursday night on Impact, Angelina Love made her return to the organization, first appearing in the crowd and hugging Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne prior to their match with Awesome Kong and Hamada.

The two-time Women's Knockout Champion has posted a thank you message to her fans on her MySpace account, thanking them for their incredible support while she was away from the organization late last year.
Here is her message in its entirety:
A BIG Thank You to my Fans!
I just want to take this time to write a big huge THANK YOU to each and every one of my fans. From day one you guys have been so supportive of me and you really showed how much you care during my difficult time at the end of last year.
Not one day went by, not ONE, since I was released where I didnt get a personal message, a comment, an email or something from you fans. Everyday you told me you missed me and you supported me and you couldnt wait to see me back on TV.
That really helped brighten my days when I didnt really know what was going to be happening in my life! None of you HAD to do anything or say anything, but you did and it really meant a lot to me. My manager, Michael Klyzub, worked his butt off to make sure everything would turn out for the best and it sure did
I am officially back on the TNA roster and couldnt be happier about it. I guess I'm starting a new chapter in my career & in my life and I am so excited about it! I'm gonna give it my all as I always do and I hope everyone loves it as much as I know I will. Thank you for being so happy and supportive of my return and thank you for all the youtube videos you made about it! They are all awesome!
2010 has started off amazing and I cant wait to see what will come in the days ahead.

Sting also said that Flair is the main reason why he decided to stay on with TNA for another year so that he would have the opportunity to work with Flair once again.

In the highly anticipated main event, Batista looked to be on his way to overcoming his former comrade-in-arms. But as he attempted to drop the Batista Bomb, Mysterio turned the tables, using his adversarys height and a stunning kick to his opponent to climb the steel cage to ultimate triumph. When The Animal rushed to the door to try and reach the ground first, the masked Superstar slammed it in his face, putting an exclamation point on his towering victory.
Mysterios success wins him the right the face The Deadman for the World Title in just more than two weeks at the Royal Rumble. (Match preview)
Chris Jericho def. John Morrison (PHOTOS | WATCH) After being knocked out in one punch by the legendary fist of Iron Mike Tyson on Monday Night Raw, Chris Jericho returned to Friday nights with a huge bruise on his face. He vowed to defeat all 29 other Superstars to win the Royal Rumble Match and then go on to WrestleMania XXVI to become a six-time World Champion.
With Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre coming down to ringside after the action had already begun, the self-proclaimed best in the world at what he does proved victorious over The Friday Night Delight. Morrison allowed The Chosen Ones presence to momentarily divert his attention from the match, paving the way for Jericho to finish The Guru of Greatness off with a surprise Code Breaker. After the bell, MyIntyre added insult to injury, stepping on the fallen Morrisons face.

In the process, Punk pledged that he would continue his Straightedge quest by winning the Royal Rumble Match as the first step toward the salvation of society. (PHOTOS | WATCH)
CM Punk & Luke Gallows went on to triumph over three other tag teams, winning the right to face Unified Tag Team Champions D-Generation X for the titles. Though JTG went for the pin on The Straightedge Superstar, he hadnt noticed that Punks Detoxified Disciple had tagged himself in. Gallows made short work of the unsuspecting Superstar, hitting him with the Gallows Pole for the monumental victory.
Mickie James def. Beth Phoenix by disqualification (PHOTOS | WATCH) The quickly growing animosity between the highly-charged Mickie James and The Glamazon fueled the fire for their explosive battle. But, when Mickie got trapped upside down in the turnbuckle, The Fabulous Firebird refused to back off, drawing the disqualification.
After the bell, Women's Champion Michelle McCool and Layla emerged. Rather than engage them, Beth opted to leave her venerable opponent to the wolves and make her exit. Lay-Cool proceeded to punish Piggie James, an assault that culminated with an earth-shattering Faithbreaker.
Kane def. Dolph Ziggler (PHOTOS | WATCH) Despite Dolph Zigglers success in defeating Kane by count-out one week ago - and their hard-fought Beat the Clock Challenge Match the week before that - the third time was not a charm for the confident Superstar. After numerous attempts to ride the sleeper hold to victory, Ziggler fell at the hands of The Big Red Monsters mighty chokeslam.

In an interview with Sky Sports News, WWE Diva Maria talked about how she might be leaving WWE at some point.
"I'm starting to do other things and it's partially because one day I want to be a mom and I want to get married and you can't really do that when you're on the road," Maria said. "So I've got to find a job that will allow me to do that."
Maria is releasing an album this spring and she will be appearing on the upcoming Celebrity Apprentice show hosted by Donald Trump.
WWE still wanted Hardy back despite indictment? Posted by Chris Kaufman on 01/14/2010 at 08:08 PM
Credit: F4WOnline.com
According to Dave Meltzer, WWE officials were calling Jeff Hardy as late as 1/5 and were trying to get him to change his mind about joining TNA. Not only was this the day after Hardy appeared on Impact, but also a day after he was indicted on drug charges.
It's an interesting situation because it shows that WWE is softening their stance on the company's drug policy. It says a lot about both WWE and TNA since there was such strong interest in Hardy despite news of his indictment coming out.
The match may have been changed because word is that John Cena is plagued by back problems with bulging discs. No word yet on the severity of Cenas injury or what may come out of it.

As noted earlier, WWE promptly removed Hardy from its opening video montage.
Kelly Kelly has problem prior to RAW Posted by Chris Kaufman on 01/12/2010 at 11:18 AM
If anyone was wondering why Kelly Kelly had different ring attire and tennis shoes as opposed to wrestling boots during her match last night on RAW, it is because the WWE Diva lost her luggage before the show.
In a related note, despite what seemed to be a pretty scary powerbomb Kelly suffered in the finish of her match, she is not suffering from any full-blown injuries.

The following is an excerpt from an interview with Hulk Hogan on IGN TV:
Hulk Hogan on WWE and Bret Hart: "I expected a bunch of different stuff, from Bret's look I was looking for something really exciting. I was like "oh my gosh, man, this is going to be fun" but then I saw it and went "hmmmm." I smell blood. I watched the show after that with Tyson and the show before that with Timbaland and I liked those shows better. But that's just me."
Hulk Hogan on more stars coming to TNA: "My phone's been ringing so much from guys who want to come in. Thank god, that's the easy part. Because I was all messed up in the head and I thought that would be tough. I was in the airport with one of the guys from the WWE and they said "the guys in the WWE are cheering us on like crazy."

ECW Champion Christian def. William Regal (PHOTOS | WATCH) At Royal Rumble Christian will defend his ECW Title against the winner of the ECW Homecoming Finale, Ezekiel Jackson. Before that happens however, Captain Charisma had to face Big Zekes associate, William Regal, on WWE Superstars. As usual, The British Brawler was accompanied by The Guyanese Goliath, who attempted to become involved in the match-up. Luckily for Christian, however, the ring official caught Jackson and ejected him from ringside. With the match strictly one-on-one, the ECW Champion pinned Regal for the win, sending a clear message to his Royal Rumble opponent.
Jimmy Wang Yang & Slam Master J def. Mike Knox & Charlie Haas (PHOTOS | WATCH) Jimmy Wang Yang and his partner Slam Master J, two Superstars with two very different very unorthodox styles, make for a strange looking tag team, and on WWE Superstars, they faced off against fellow SmackDown ring warriors, Mike Knox & Charlie Haas. Though their opponents boasted both a powerhouse in the form of Big Mike Knox and a technical expert in Haas, Yang & J persevered, with the self-proclaimed Asian redneck picking up the win.
Chris Masters def. Carlito (PHOTOS | WATCH) Accompanied by Eve, Chris Masters appeared on WWE Superstars to take on the churlish Carlito. The Southpaw from San Juan threw everything he had at The Masterpiece, but like so many other ring warriors, found himself powerless in the face of the massive strength and power of The Masterpiece. With his win over Carlito, Masters continued to impress both the WWE Universe and the lovely Eve.
Primo & Gail Kim def. Chavo Guerrero & Jillian (PHOTOS | WATCH) WWE Superstars, opened with a mixed tag team match pitting Primo & Gail Kim against Chavo Guerrero & Jillian. She may be Raws tone-deaf songstress, but Jillian had very little to sing about after watching her partner get pinned by the high-flying Primo.
In a battle of former ROH World Champions, Kaval (Low Ki) defeated Bryan Danielson with a double stomp at last night's Florida Championship Wrestling television taping in Tampa. Danielson is expected to stay in developmental for only a few weeks before being called up to the main roster.
The January 14th edition of TNA iMPACT! scored a 1.26 cable rating (rounded up to a 1.3), down from the 3-hour live show's 1.5 rating but up from the previous Thursday's 0.7 average (for the 4-hour New Year's Eve show).
TNA officials are VERY happy with the 1.3 for this week.
