* Santana is pissed and tells Santino that Mustafa is playing games and he’s sick of it. He says when they get to Rebellion, he’s begging for Falls Count Anywhere. Santino understands and he says Santana has got it. Santana says he’s ending this in LA.
* Eric Young tapes up for the main event, as does Steve Maclin. AJ is also ready.
* Ace Austin is out here with a mic. He says tonight is a special night for a lot of reasons, but one in particular. There’s someone standing behind that curtain who has been through hell and back to see all of them. It’s his honor and pleasure to introduce them to a man who is truly unbreakable: Las Vegas’ own Chris Bey!
Bey is here! He walks out onto the stage and hugs Ace. Nice moment, and Ace looks emotional over it. Bey has the mic and the crowd chants for him. He says, “Hello, world!” He is, he was — he is? He was? No, he is the Ultimate Finesser, your girl’s favorite wrestler, Chris Bey. And it feels good to be back in TNA. He says 172 days ago, he had an accident in the ring that changed the course of his life forever. He broke his neck and paralyzed himself. And truth be told, easily the scariest and most embarrassing moment of his life. He was embarrassed because he wouldn’t finish the match as he wanted to, because he loves this so much.
But thankfully the quick response from TNA and medical staff in Detroit saved him, but his future was uncertain because doctors said he had a low chance of walking again. He poses and Ace points at his legs. He says he worked tirelessly in the REM medical facility doing PT and OT — he shouts out the staff who worked with him. He says Ace never left his side, never stopped believing in and supporting him. He was a real brother and he loves him.
Bey says Day One — outside of saying it’s Day One, in his heart and mind he thought he’d never walk again. And then he had to remind himself who he was, feel the love and energy of all the fans, and he beat the odds thanks to them, the TNA crew, the locker room, and everyone watching at home. He’s standing there and look at him now!
He did it because — the crowd chants “You’re Unbreakable.” They did it because, to steal a line from the world champion, they believe. He says he owes Joe $20 now. “WE BEYLIEVE” chant starts. He says it almost broke his spirit, and definitely broke his neck, but he looked in the mirror and reminded himself that he’s unbreakable. That we are unbreakable, and that TNA is Unbreakable. All of this is the greatest story ever told.

And NOW it’s time for the salt. Thumbs up, thumbs down — and Mace with a low blow! He bites Sami’s thumb and grabs the bag, dumping the salt onto Sami. Steph hands Mance a screwdriver because obviously, but Sami has a spike because why not? They both go in and it’s standoff, but they hit each other’s skulls and drop.
Both men slowly get up, Sami grabs a trash can and dumps barbed wire. They trade blows, Mance rakes the eyes and Sami grabs the balls. Sami puts a sock on, wraps it in barbed wire and goes for the Mandible Claw. Cactus Driver ’97 mercifully finishes it.

And they’ll learn that in TNA, we walk this way. He says he’s going to put Vegas to the test and goes back to strumming, delivering a song about the monstrosity of a match that we just saw, and talks about Joe vs. AJ vs. Daniels and Chris Bey being Unbreakable.
