Winner and STILL TNA X Division Champion: Kenny King
JB is backstage with Joseph Park. He talks about how he’s been ribbed this week, being sent to The Alamo to try and rent a car. Kazarian and Daniels walk in and says Dixie Carter has been looking for him. Park walks off and Kaz talks about how tonight is all about Bad Influence and how they will win tonight.

Joseph Park is out next, and he gets a pretty nice reaction out of the crowd.

He calls that evidence. He says Park is a big mark, since he’s learning insider terms, and he belongs more in the audience than in the ring. Ryan says he’s got the size advantage where it count, and Park is about to find out that size matters.
