Chapter 11
Jake and Traci walked into the Impact Zone before they even got through the door before Christian Cage gets in his face. "Hey Jake we need to talk. You see there are some things I need to know," Christian says. "Alright Cage what do you want?" Jake asks. "Look Reed I know how to ready between the lines and last week it was clear as day you to someone on the ROH side so tell me who," Christian demands.
"First bro you need a breath mint," Jake says. "Look will you stop joking around. We can't afford to lose these war games," Cage yells. "Were not going to lose because I have the ultimate ace in the hole," Jake says. "Well tell me who this ace is," Christian asks. "I'll tell you later," Jake says walking away.
Christian is left pissed. "Christian think about it last thing we need is ROH finding out who the ace is," Traci says. "Ok, but he better tell me soon," Christian says. Traci just walks off following Jake.
Mike Tenay and Don West were at the broadcast table. "You know fans hands down the war games are the biggest match in TNA history," Don says. "It simple Don if TNA wins than ROH has to leave. But if ROH we and by we I mean TNA loses there time on Spike TV. And think of all the damage it would do to TNA. We couldn't run the company with out TV time," Mike says. "And Mike lets face it Spike is the reason that Christian Cage, Sting, and Kurt Angle came to TNA because we could give them a new format to showcase there talents," Don says.
"Also our video game deal and all the growth in terms of licensing all because of Spike," Mike says. "Lets be honest Mike TNA may not survive if we lose," Don says. Samoa Joe's music plays and Joe comes to ring side area. "Ah Don, Mike you are pathetic," Joe says. "Your one to talk," Mike says. Joe grabs Mike by the throat.
Jake runs out and hits Joe with the TNA title. Joe lets Mike go as he and Jake start to brawl. Team ROH hits the ring but the team TNA comes out to chase them off. Jake and Joe keep brawling. They actually wind up into the stands. Jake goes to spear Joe but Joe winds up throwing Jake into the wall. The force breaks the wall. Joe locks in the clutch.
A few days later Jake walked into a hospital room. "Tell me you didn't break your arm and this all to get back at me for all the bad jakes," Jake says to AJ who has his arm in a sling. "I also won't tell you I am a no go for War Games," AJ says. "I am going to kill you. Explain how this happened," Jake says. "I was trying to practice a new move and I slipped," AJ says.
"We are screwed. AJ we are screwed. We will be off TV," Jake says starting to pace. "What happened to your big Ace in the hole?" AJ asks. "I was counting on you being there. AJ you live and breath TNA no is going to fight for it like you," Jake says. "Jake there is one guy," AJ says. "Oh man no way it would work," Jake says. "Jake the guy has lived for TNA for six years," AJ says.
The next week Joe was in the ring. "This week has been pretty good. First I put Jake Reed's head in a wall and now AJ Styles is out. So Jake Reed I a feeling generous enough to give you a chance to forfeit," Joe says. Jake comes down the ring with no music but a very serious look on his face. "You want me to forfeit?" Jake asks. "Only giving you a chance a beating," Joe says.
"Well Joe when you take as many beatings as I have taken you kind of stop caring about taking another one," Jake says. "Fine by me Reed because I will choke you out. Because you only have four guys left," Joe says. "Well you see I had four guy but than I used two loopholes," Jake says. "Oh yeah the trader by the way I'm not buying it," Joe says.
"Yeah because I guy leaving ROH is insane except for you, Paul London, Punk, Cabana, Daniels, AJ, and you former protégé Jay Lethal oh yeah!" Jake says. Joe has hand enough and goes to punch Jake. The brawl is on again but than music that hasn't been heard in TNA in month's plays and Jeff Jarrett runs to the ring with a guitar. Jeff hits Joe in the head and to shock of the fans Jake and Jeff shack.
Mike Tenay jumps into the ring with a microphone. "Jake does this mean Jeff is new member of team TNA? And how Jeff you lost a match that said you can never work for TNA again?" Mike asks. "Well Mike you see when I agreed to the match that ended my TNA career there was a clause that stated that if Jake Reed allowed it I could return," Jeff says. "And Mike I agreed so yes Jeff Jarrett will be the new member of team TNA because no one and I mean no one has lived breathed and fought for TNA longer than this man," Jake says.
