In-Ring PromoMatt Hardy comes down to the ring along with Reby Sky and Tyrus as footage of the injury to Jeff from last week is shown. Matt says sometimes you have to work with people you hate and make tough decisions about people you love. The fans chant “we want Jeff” but Matt says the fans won’t get Jeff because he made the mistake to claim that Matt was tarnishing the title. He said that karma hit Jeff in the form of a Piledriver through a table. Matt says that Jeff’s “peg leg” couldn’t run away from his past fast enough this time.

Reby says that it didn’t have to be this way but after years and years of people saying that Matt was living in Jeff’s shadow this was bound to happy to prove that it wasn’t true. Reby says that Jeff is just jealous that Matt won the World Title fair and square. She says that Jeff’s jealously has resulted in him ending up injured and back at home.

Matt says that what happened to Jeff wasn’t personal, it was just great business for the “Matt Hardy Brand.” Eric Young and Bram interrupt Matt and EY says that Jeff Hardy is never coming back because of him and THAT is good business. He says that Bobby Roode cost him the World Title and he took his belt, and Jeff Hardy took his #1 Contenders spot so he took Jeff’s career! EY says he has no problem with Matt and says he is a great World Champion, but he needs to know that the World Title goes through him. Tyrus gets in EY’s face but Bram steps up and gets in Tyrus’ face.

Kurt Angle interrupts all the heels and he says that Matt’s business deal is blowing up in his face, and Matt has been degrading the World Title ever since he won it. Angle says he just talked to a TNA official about the next man in his Farewell Tour and he gave him some great news because it will be Kurt Angle vs. Matt Hardy for the TNA World Title tonight! Matt looks beyond pissed as the fans chant “one more time” at Kurt.

Matt says that everything makes sense now and Kurt has politicked himself into another World Title shot. He says that he was actually enjoying the Kurt Angle Farewell Tour but if he pushes his buttons that tour will end prematurely. Kurt says he ends his career on his own terms and Matt’s crew may be outnumbering him, but he will STILL kick everyone of their asses whenever he chooses to. Matt says that there is five of them and just one of Kurt so whenever he wants to give a shot he can.

Beer Money comes out and Roode says that Matt can shut his mouth and stick the “Matt Hardy Brand” up his ass. Roode says that the battle lines have been drawn and tonight there will be a fight! Storm says that Beer Money is all about making money and drinking beer. Storm says that they will make sure that Kurt gets his fair shot tonight because they are about to take care of EY and Bram!

Beer Money and Bram/EY start brawling while Kurt and Matt fight in the ring. The Decay walk out to attack Beer Money but The Wolves attack them as they come down the ramp! Beer Money, The Wolves, and Angle clean house! Roode says that tonight not only will Kurt Angle win the World Title but there will be a Hardcore War with Beer Money & The Wolves against Bram, EY, & The Decay!
