Deonna Purrazzo, Mickie James and Gail Kim Segment 

Mickie James: Wow. Well, it feels good to be back. It feels good to be back, it feels good to hear that song one more time. It feels good to be standing in this ring again. And I’ll tell you what, Slammiversary to kick the champ in the mouth, that felt pretty good, too. But I will say, you know, Slammiversary did not actually go to the way I wanted, the way I anticipated. I said I came out here to not just do business but to change the business. And I had a serious intention when I stepped out here. So, I came out here today to finish up that business, so Ms. Deonna Purrazzo, I would really love it if you would come out here and join me in this ring, right now.

Deonna, thank you for coming out here, I really appreciate it. You know, I really did not want Slammiversary to get physical, that was not my intention. I recognize that there’s a time and a place for things, and perhaps you felt that was not the right time. I disagree. However, My intention was pure and it was real. I really have a honest desire to have you at Empowerrr. I said that I wanted the best of the best, and I consider you one of the very best right now, I mean that. So, on August 28th, for the first time ever, there’s going to be an all women’s PPV, head by myself, for the first time ever as a woman, sitting at the head of the table. And so I’m asking you to be part of history with me.

Deonna Purrazzo: You know what, Mickie? I came out here to give you the benefit of the doubt. I came out here hoping you would rectify your unprofessional, and quite frankly, disrespectful actions from Slammiversary. I wanted to give you a chance to do the right thing. See, you are not out here for me, you are out here for you. You want to give me lip service about how you respect me and that I’m the greatest, I know I’m the greatest. But you are not saying it for me, you’re saying to get what you want. And I know what you want, Mickie. You want NWA Empowerrr to be the greatest all women’s PPV in history.

And in order to do that, you just don’t want me, you need The Virtuosa. Every company in the world right now needs The Virtuosa. They all want a piece of the 2X Knockouts Champion. They all want a piece of the first ever Iron Woman of IMPACT Wrestling. But before we go any further, I need something from you. I need you to grovel at my feet. I need you to apologize, right now. If that’s not your intention, Mickie, if that’s not something you’re willing to do, then that’s fine because there’s something I’m willing to do. Maybe I’m willing to do to you what you did to me at Slammiversary and slap you into next week.

Gail Kim: Ladies, I’m listening to you guys back there and I have to clear up the confusion. Deonna, Mickie did not come out at Slammiversary to steal your moment, okay. I’m the one who told her to come. Yes, I thought it was a great opportunity to invite you to NWA Empowerrr. It is a historic, one night only, all women’s PPV, run by a woman and not just any woman, a legend, a pioneer of women’s wrestling, Mickie James. You do not want to miss this opportunity, do you? I mean, throughout this whole conversation, I haven’t heard a no, right? I mean, are you actually considering it?

Mickie James: Deonna, seriously, I get you, I know you, I’ve been you, and I completely understand. This is in fact, The Age Of The Virtuosa. Don’t you want to submit your brick in that foundation of your own legacy? You’re gonna do so much in this business, I mean it, and this is just the first step. I’m gonna ask you one more time, please come to NWA Empowerrr?

Deonna Purrazzo shakes Mickie James hand to close the segment.

Jay White & The ELITE Segment

Jay White: I’m sorry, where are my manners, I haven’t even introduce myself to you yet. That’s right, I’m “Switch Blade” Jay White. Oh, there’s more. I’m the number one asset in all of professional wrestling. I’m the last rock and roller. Personal favorite, I’m the man that singlehandedly sold out Madison Square Garden. I am King Switch, baby. I’m the first ever grand slam champion. I am the NEVER Openweight Champion. And I am the real belt collector. The one real belt collector, and I am here in IMPACT for one man, I am here for David Finlay. David Finlay thinks he can come to IMPACT Wrestling and hide from me, but David, I’m talking to you buddy. Our date is set. August 14th at Resurgence, David Finlay is hoping and praying for a resurgence of the Finlay name. The Finlay name in wrestling that was once respected, now is simply laughed at. Oh, how daddy must be disappointed in his son. You see, David, you career peaked when you beat me in the New Japan Cup, but buddy, that’s it for you, because you will never beat me again, and you will never beat me for this.

Although I’m here for you, David, I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity at Slammiversary to come out and say hello to Bullet Club’s greatest fans. Well, I appreciate that, I wasn’t talking about you guys, i’m talking about the guys that are walking around throwing up too sweets like it’s still 2013. Those guys are the true fans of Bullet Cub. Those guys are the true fans of “Switch Blade” Jay White. But I understand why they do that, you see, Good Brothers have only ever been relevant when they can tie their name to Bullet Club, so I see why The Good Brothers are so desperate to rejoin. But, Good Brothers, this is a new era of Bullet Club. This is my new era of Bullet Club. And in my new era of Bullet Club, we have standards, and I’m sorry Good Brothers, you guys just simply aren’t good enough anymore. So, after thinking about it, as far as your reapplication to rejoining goes, it’s gonna have to be a no. But, we all know, I’m such a nice guy, so Good Brothers, if you want to appeal that decision, the floor is yours.

– The ELITE comes out to interrupt Jay White.

Kenny Omega: Now you guys have done it. Now you’ve done it. Don, calm down it. Hey, hold him back. Oh, you fans, you brought this on yourselves, you really did. Calm down, Don, give them a piece of your mind.

Don Callis: Thank you. You know, I’m really happy because Jay White has always been one of my favorite talents when I was in New Japan making people famous on the microphone. We always loved Jay White. Good looking you kid, great athlete, great guy, hey, you even got the promos down, kid. I hear you talking about the new Bullet Club. I remember what it used to BE like. I remember what the real Bullet Club was like because it had “The Machine Gun” Karl Anderson, it had Big Daddy Gallows, and of course the man who took it to a whole new level, the god of pro wrestling, Kenny Omega.

You see, Jay, while you are cooking food for the veterans and washing people’s back, Kenny Omega, The Invisible Hand, and The Good Brothers were selling out the Tokyo Dome. You honestly think that you’re gonna come out here and step to The ELITE? You my friend are in charge of a group called The Club that sells, dozens of t-shirts? A group that is loaded, with the exception of you, with mid-carders, so I think really what we should be talking about is you putting your foot forward to ask our permission to join The ELITE.

Jay White: Don, you don’t even work here anymore, do you? Hang on, did you call him a wrestling god, is that what you said? You’re reminiscing selling out all these places. If you’re gonna talk about the old days, make sure you don’t forget about one particular day, and that was the day the last time me and your wrestling god were in the ring, one on one. And I believe, correct me if I’m wrong, Don, but I believe I beat him.

Kenny Omega: We’re gonna have to really talk about this, Don and I. We’re gonna get back to this.

Jay White: Of course, you are.

– The Good Brothers says that Jay White is complete ungrateful for what they did for The Bullet Club. They want a thank you from Jay White.

Jay White: It never changes with you guys, does it? All you ever did was this (talk), and it looks like all you do now is still talk, but it doesn’t matter what you say, because us three, we know the truth. The truth is, your (Karl Anderson) career peaked when you lost the 2012 G1 Final. And all three of us, and I think maybe more, we all know that I am simply everything you two wish you could’ve been.

White gets into a brawl with The Good Brothers. Gallows drops White with The Big Boot. Gallows is raining down haymakers. Gallows goes for The Magic Killer, but Chris Bey storms into the ring to make the save.
