[Q5] Austin Aries made his way to the ring. Aries said he proved everyone wrong. He said it wasn't just a great moment for him or for the company. He said it was a great moment for all of professional wrestling. He had to calm the crowd down as they were going out of their minds. He shushed them, which garnered a chuckle from me.
Aries said there was a new energy in Impact Wrestling. He said wrestling was ready for the next boom period, and he was the man to lead Impact Wrestling into the next one. He declared himself the most important wrestler, and TNA the most important company today.
Bobby Roode decided to join the fun and he slowly made his way to the ring with a stunned look on his face. Either that or he recently farted. No one can tell.
Roode looked around the arena and eventually made his way inside the ring. He grunted and fumed at Aries for a moment and tried not to cry. He kept saying "This, all of this" before continued to shake and grunt. He repeated the shtick far too many times.
Roode finally managed to say spit out "fluke" before storming off…
