OFFICIAL TNA "IMPACT!" RESULTS Saturday, October 22, 2005 – Orlando, FL By: Marcus Cygy
SAMOA JOE vs. ELIX SKIPPER w/ SIMON DIAMOND The opening match of iMPACT! featured the debut of "The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe as he took on Elix Skipper of The Diamonds in the Rough. The match started off with each combatant delivering gigantic stiff kicks, however, Skipper could not get up after the kicks, thus making Joe’s kicks the harder ones. Later on in the match, Skipper ate Samoa Joe’s running boot in the corner as Joe then pinned Skipper. Much to Simon Diamond’s relief, Skipper was able to matrix out of the pin. Later Samoa Joe took Elix Skipper and hit the Muscle Buster followed by the Choke Sleeper for the victory.
Winner: Samoa Joe
- At Bound For Glory, Samoa Joe will face off against the Japanese legend, Jushin "Thunder" Liger!

NWA World Tag Team Title Match: THE NATURALS (c) vs. AMERICA’S MOST WANTED The following match is the first title match on SpikeTV and this one had a wild start. America’s Most Wanted found themselves outside the ring at the very beginning stage of this match as Andy Douglas held them and Chase Stevens went to the top rope and showcased a Shooting Star Press that he delivered onto AMW. Gail Kim then made her presence felt to cheer on America’s Most Wanted to help them regroup. The cheerleading didn’t seem to help though as Andy Douglas and Chase Stevens of The Naturals had full control; however, it was Gail Kim that got her way one way or another as she held Andy Douglas’ leg near the ring ropes as that got his attention and he went out of the ring to confront her. Andy then found himself chasing AMW to where he caught an NWA Tag Team belt in his face and he was now cut open. Moments later, Chase Stevens took matters into his own hands by getting some offence in. Andy Douglas also played part by taking out Chris Harris but the numbers game took part as Gail Kim got on the ring apron and held the referee. Chris Harris then got the ring bell and hit down Chase Stevens. AMW received a 2-count pin. The referee was then knocked out by Chris Harris by accident as The Naturals hit The Natural Disaster; Gail Kim then tried to make her physical presence by hitting Andy Douglas from the top rope but instead she caught James Storm. Later, The Naturals tried hitting The Natural Disaster on Gail Kim now, but it was Jeff Jarrett, the leader of the squad that came in and low blowed Andy Douglas from behind where the now okay referee could not see. The referee then saw Jarrett who was now outside. Back in the ring though, James Storm had a beer bottle and smashed it across Chase Stevens’ head as he was cut open now. AMW pinned and won the match, as they became 6-time NWA World Tag Team Champions.

BOBBY ROODE w/ SCOTT D’AMORE vs. RON KILLINGS w/ 3LIVE KRU Both Bobby Roode and Ron Killings both started out the match showing their true strengths towards one another, along with their specialties. It was truly two unique styles within the heavyweight division clashing here in this match. Mid way in the match, Ron Killings delivered an amazing flip dive onto Bobby Roode to the outside. Moments later, Bobby Roode gained momentum with a few moves of his own. Roode also was able to taunt the crowd in his typical Canadian fashion. Kip James was then seen coming down as he said to Mike Tenay and Don West that he was going to settle this once and for all with his brother BG James. Konnan was backstage with Apolo in the background watching the television screen in displeasure. Immediately, Konnan made his way down and got right into Kip’s face. BG James tried separating the two, Ron Killings then got into action. Later, we saw Team Canada use their tactics within the confusion and broke the hockey stick across The Truth’s back as Bobby Roode gained the victory.

JEFF JARRETT, MONTY BROWN, & ABYSS vs. AJ STYLES, JEFF HARDY, & LANCE HOYT This wild match started off with Lance Hoyt and Abyss going at it. The two big men exchanged punches as Jeff Hardy was later tagged in by Hoyt. Jeff Hardy gained offense but it was Jeff Jarrett that blind-sided Hardy with a knee to the back while near the ropes. Moments later, Monty Brown was in the ring showcasing many of his high impact maneuvers against Jeff Hardy. Jarrett had to give in his two cents as well with a drop kick. It was AJ Styles though that cleaned house with his physically athletic phenomenal moves against the three opposes. All six combatants continued battling on the outside, but AJ Styles found himself getting a piece of Jeff Jarrett on the top rope with punches to the head and that’s when Abyss attempted a Black Hole Slam to AJ, however, AJ Styles turned it into a DDT. With all the full ahead steam AJ had, Monty Brown put that to a halt as he made his physical presence. Abyss then took his turn, as did Jeff Jarrett. Later on, all six men were turned loose as all competitors delivered their specialty moves. Ultimately in the end, it was the Christopher Daniels who took down AJ Styles from the top rope as Jeff Jarrett was then going to hit the Stroke. However, Monty Brown was seen running to hit the Pounce on the two, but Jarrett backed off and Brown hit Styles and got the pin for the victory.
