18 WTF Moments From TNA Impact (Sept 30)

14. Earl Hebner Gets Blinded By Beer

James Storm later grabs a beer bottle and takes a hefty swig, planning to spit it into Shera's face, but of course, he ducks and the suds end up in the face of referee Earl Hebner. Shera then manages to knock Storm to the floor and goes for the pin, but there's no ref to count the fall. Storm then fights back, hitting Shera with the cowbell and powerbombing him through a table, but Hebner only gets to a two-count before Shera kicks out. The whole thing is a badly-booked spot for several reasons: a) why even bother with a ref knock-out in a No DQ match? b) Josh Matthews acts like Shera's pin should've won him the match when it came after a very weak clothesline and c) if Storm didn't ultimately win due to taking out Hebner, what really was the point at all?
