The matches were the same as last night’s house show in Baton Rouge. Before the opening match, A.J. Styles played up his heel persona telling the audience there would be no backstage passes. Jay Lethal then came out and said that if he beat A.J., then backstage passes would be given out. If A.J. won, then no backstage passes would be given out.
(1) Jay Lethal beat TV champion A.J. Styles in a non-title match.
(2) Taylor Wilde beat Madison Rayne.

(3) Kevin Nash beat Jeff Jarrett. During the match, Jarrett slapped Brian Hebner. This caused Hebner to become enraged and take off his referee t-shirt, then Nash put on the ref’s shirt with Hebner’s help. Hebner hip-tossed Jarrett and Jarrett got control of the match. He was about to hit Hebner when Slick Johnson ran down. Hebner and Johnson hip tossed Jarrett, then Nash hit the big boot and both refs counted to three. After the match, Jarrett thanked the fans for their support of TNA.
(4) Ink, Inc. (Shannon Moore & Jesse Neal) beat Team 3D (Brother Ray & Brother Devon) after Team 3D collided with each other. Ray then tried to hit Devon, but Devon knocked Bubba down.
[Intermission – Taylor Wilde signed autographs.]
(5) “The Pope” D’Angelo Dinero beat Matt Morgan.
(6) Jeff Hardy beat Abyss in a Monster’s Ball match with Mick Foley as special referee. The same thing as last night happened. Foley used Socko on Abyss and Hardy hit the Twist of Fate, then Swanton Bomb for the win.
After the show, Hardy signed a few autographs before he went to take pictures. Jesse Neal, Madison Rayne, Pope, Jay Lethal, Shannon Moore, and Matt Morgan also came out to sign autographs. At the end, for showing our support, Jarrett signed autographs for free at the merchandise stand.
Overall, I had a real good time and this was the second house show I have attended in Thibodaux. I got autographs with Mick Foley, Taylor Wilde, Madison Rayne, Matt Morgan, The Pope, Jay Lethal, Shannon Moore, and Jeff Jarrett. TNA’s house shows are a great experience and I will go again when they come down here. $50 for front row and the meet & greet was a good value for my ticket.
