*Spoilers* TNA iMPACT Tapings – 3/17/2011

Thanks to Eric for the following TNA iMPACT tapings from last night’s show, airing this Thursday on Spike TV:

* Sting opens iMPACT and has a new World Heavyweight Title belt. Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff come out. Sting says Hogan and Bischoff have ruined Jeff Hardy. Hogan says it’s Hardy’s fault. Bully Ray comes out and cuts a promo on Sting. Ray wants to prove himself against Sting. Fortune comes out and AJ Styles says they have Sting’s back. Styles slaps Ray. Mr. Anderson interrupts next and wants his rematch. Bischoff proposes Anderson vs. Rob Van Dam vs. Ray vs. AJ Styles in a contender’s match.

* Crimson and Scott Steiner defeat Ink Inc. They brawled after the match.

* The Pope did a very “tasteless” segment next where he “healed” several unfortunate people. We don’t have many more details.

* Madison Rayne’s open challenge continues and this time Alissa Flash returns. Madison beats her in a squash. Mickie James runs out and challenges Madison to a match for the belt at Lockdown. Madison agrees if Mickie will put her hair on the line. Mickie accepts.

* Karen and Jeff Jarrett come out next. Jeff wants a truce with Kurt Angle and says he will be the bigger man to co-exist for the kids. Angle comes out with a present and gives it to Karen. There’s a guitar in the box. Kurt poses with the Jarretts but smashes Jeff with the guitar. Jeff bleeds bad. Karen low blows Kurt but he had a protective cup in. Angle challenges Jeff to a match at Lockdown.

* Gunner defeated Murphy and Rob Terry to win the vacant TNA Television Champion.

* Matt Morgan, Winter and Angelina Love defeated Sarita, Rosita and Hernandez in a Street Fight. The mystery man from Victory Road runs in but Morgan chases him and Hernandez off.

* AJ Styles vs. RVD vs. Brother Ray vs. Mr. Anderson went to a no contest when all hell broke loose. Ray powerbombed Styles through a table off the stage. AJ is taken out on a stretcher. Ray looks like he may have been hurt also.
