The TNA-GFW partnership continues to heat up as the TNA World Heavyweight title risks slipping through the promotion's fingers, but that's just the tip of the iceberg: Jeff Jarrett's presence became even more pronounced on this week's show, signalling significant (and possibly very WTF) changes coming for TNA's future. That's not all, though: this week's Impact featured a bizarre blend of peculiar fan interaction, a number of tragically WCW-inspired moments, more of Josh Matthews' horrendous attempts at commentary, and the TNA's Knockouts going hardcore (but not in the way you expect...or possibly hope). It looks like TNA are playing the long game as far as the GFW angle is concerned, though with the lingering rumours of TNA's TV deal with Destination America being up in the air, perhaps now is the time to strike. Without question, the end of TNA as we know it would be one giant WTF moment in of itself. .
18. Jeff Jarrett Is Hosting Impact Again (Surpise, Surprise)
TNA clearly wanted it to be something of a surprise, but it was obvious from the minute Bully Ray got attacked that Jeff Jarrett wouldn't just be stepping in as General Manager for one week, and of course, this week he's once again running the show. In reference to Bully no longer being with the company, Jarrett even says, "Who knows where Bully Ray's at?", and don't be surprised if that's pretty much the last you hear about him on TNA television. As if anymore proof were needed that TNA is slowly becoming an amalgam show with Jarrett's Global Force Wrestling, he spent a few minutes plugging his promotion and the PJ Black vs. EC3 main event, ensuring that he and his company are here for the long haul, essentially as a last ditch effort to save TNA's TV future.
