Note: There are still two weeks worth of tapings to be filmed this week alone. This was done in anticipation for Genesis and preventing the tapings from rolling over and interfering with the TNA International tour dates come 2011.
TNA Impact (Airing 1/6/11 on Spike TV):
* Immortal (minus Hulk Hogan and Jeff Hardy) come out. Eric Bischoff wishes everyone a happy New Year. In 3 days Genesis is upon us. It's a big night not only for Immortal but also for the fans. He has put a bounty on every title because that's the competitive nature in him. They're not depending on a judge or someone to decide things, they're handling matters themselves. He now wants to introduce a very important champion, Jay Lethal. Lethal comes out and Bischoff gives his word he will be fine so please get in the ring. Lethal joins Immortal in the ring. Bischoff then introduces the tag team champions The Motor City Machine Guns. Finally he introduces the TV champion Douglas Williams. Bischoff thanks them all for coming. Eric says they all earned their titles and no one gave them to them. Immortal respects them for being TNA champions. At Genesis they expect 5 star matches out of all of them. He wants to let them all sharpen their skills before the pay-per-view. So tonight, Lethal is wrestling Abyss, Williams is wrestling Rob Terry and The Motor City Machine Guns are wrestling AJ Styles & Kazarian. In the name of sportsmanship let's all shake hands. As they shake, Immortal starts beating the champs up. Rob Van Dam's music hits and he comes down to help clear the ring. RVD is tired of the games and wants to know who his opponent at Genesis is. Bischoff says he'll tell him when he's ready. RVD says he'll find out who it is tonight, even if he has to beat it out of his manipulative ass.
* Non Title Match, TNA Tag Team Champions The Motor City Machine Guns vs. AJ Styles & Kazarian. Winners via Sliced Bread #2 from Shelley to Styles, The Motor City Machine Guns. Beer Money attacks the Guns after the match and leave them lying while they raise the tag title belts.
* Madison Rayne and Sarita (with Tara) defeated Mickie James and Velvet Sky. Sarita pinned Velvet.
They take away the Christmas decorations in preparation for the 1/6/2011 tapings.
Pope comes out and cuts a promo. He calls out the person who has been video taping him without his consent. Samoa Joe comes out. He tells Pope that he’s not a saint but that he’s a scumbag. That instead of fulfilling his community services, he’s been seen in strip clubs. He accuses Pope of collecting donations but not giving it to the people in need but instead pocketing the money himself. He also says that he hasn’t delivered the puppies he adopted from the animal shelter to the orphanage like he promised. Pope comes back and tells Joe that he shouldn’t be passing judgment on him. That he goes to strip clubs to tell the girls that they don’t have to be doing that line of work, and that he has adopted a pitbull, but that it’s been his best friend when times are tough. Pope ends the promo with his "The Pope has spoken" line.
Strap Match
Sarita .vs. Velvet Sky
Sarita wins by touching four corners before Velvet.
Jeff Jarrett $100,000 Submission Challenge
Another one but this time Jarrett challenges Amazing Red’s baby brother. Red comes out alone and Jarrett asks him what’s the matter, does his brother have stage fright? Jarrett gets on his knees and turns his back to the entrance ramp and tells Red to bring his brother out here. Red’s baby brother comes out, but he’s ripped, tattooed, and bigger than Jarrett. He pats Jarrett on the shoulder and Jarrett turns around not expecting Red’s brother to be so much bigger than Red. I’m not exactly sure who played Red’s brother but he did share some kind of resemblance and his trunks were Red's colors. They fought for a couple of minutes but the challenge was ruled a no contest when Jarrett was pulled out of the ring by Gunner and Murphy while he was locked in an ankle lock by Red's baby brother. Jarrett walked to the back with his flunkies.
Madison Rayne comes out in an evening gown looking like Audrey Hepburn accompanied by four random guys in tuxedoes. They do a cheesy entrance and carry Rayne to the ring and each one of them kisses her hand before leaving. Rayne gets on the mic and runs down Mickie James. Hardcore Country hits and Mickie James comes out. She rips the mic away from Rayne, smacks her in the mouth and tears the evening gown off of Madison Rayne. Madison runs to the back in her underwear embarrassed.
Xplosion Matches
Gunner & Murphy .vs. Ink Inc.
Gunner & Murphy win with a nightstick shot while the ref was distracted.
Sarita .vs. Miss Tessmacher
Sarita wrestles the beginning of the match with a microphone in her hand, demeaning Tessmacher by saying she’s inferior. She lets her have a couple of free shots with her back turned to her, but Sarita easily escapes Tessmacher’s waistlocks with armdrags, etc. That part was entertaining but when Sarita no longer had the microphone, a normal match got underway, and Tessmacher’s greenness showed. Sarita wins with a double underhook powerbomb.
Messy but clean up and better when more official and source multiple.

Immortal with Eric Bischoff, who noted it was three days before Genesis, brought out all of the current champions and told them they were all expected to have great matches at the PPV this Sunday. He tells X Division champion Jay Lethal that tonight he'll be wrestling Abyss, that TV champion Douglas Williams will be wrestling Rob Terry and that Tag Team champions The Motor City Machineguns that they will face AJ Styles and Kazarian so they can prepare for their PPV bout. Immortal jumps the four of the them and Rob Van Dam hits the ring for the save. Van Dam says he's tired of all the garbage and demands to know who he will face at the PPV.
*TNA Tag Team Champions The Motor City Machine Guns defeated AJ Styles & Kazarian. Beer Money laid out the champions after the match.
*Douglas Williams defeated Rob Terry in a non Title match AJ Styles attacked williams on the floor to get the DQ. After double teaming Williams, Desmond Wolfe's music plays and he comes to the ring with Magnus.
*Ray and Devon fight outside and they are separated by security. Eventually Ray attacks Devon and security. Ray says that they will settle things at Genesis.
*Jay Lethal defeated Abyss by disqualification. After the match, Frankie Kazarian comes and says that this was a warm up match for Genesis. He has Abyss pick up Jay so Frankie can shake his hand.
*Jeff Jarrett defeated Rob Van Dam. All of Jarrett's entourage and referee Earl Hebner does nothing about it. Van Dam fights back and Hardy comes out and hits Twist of Fate on Van Dam and Jarrett gets the pin. After the match, Hardy attacks Van Dam and Morgan comes out (with his music playing) and attacks Jarrett and Hardy. Anderson stops Hardy from hitting Morgan with a chair. Anderson accidentally hits Morgan with the chair and then he leaves.
