Sacrifice (2009) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), which took place on May 24, 2009 at the TNA Impact! Zone in Orlando, Florida.〔 It was the fifth event under the Sacrifice chronology. There were eight matches on the card. The show's main event was a Four Way Ultimate Sacrifice match, which pitted TNA World Heavyweight Champion, Mick Foley, against Sting, Kurt Angle, and Jeff Jarrett with each participant wagering an important aspect of their career: Foley's title, Sting's career, Angle's leadership of the Main Event Mafia, and Jarrett's shares in the company. The match was ultimately won by Sting, who pinned Angle, thus winning leadership of the Main Event Mafia. There were two other high-profile matches with A.J. Styles defending the TNA Legends Championship against Booker T in an "I Quit" match as well as Beer Money, Inc. winning the "Team 3D Invitational Tag Team Tournament" against The British Invasion. Other matches on the undercard included: a six-man tag team match between the team of Jay Lethal, Consequences Creed, and Eric Young versus the Motor City Machineguns and Sheik Abdul Bashir, Daffney versus Taylor Wilde in a Monster's Ball match, Christopher Daniels challenging Suicide for his TNA X Division Championship, Angelina Love defending her title against Awesome Kong, and Samoa Joe versus Kevin Nash. ==Storylines== Sacrifice featured eight professional wrestling matches and one pre-show match that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. The four way match for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, entitled the "Ultimate Sacrifice" match, was announced on the April 23 episode of TNA's primary television program, ''TNA Impact!'', by TNA co-founder Jeff Jarrett.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lineup For The May 24 "Sacrifice" PPV ) 〕 The theme of the match being that each participant must risk something valuable, and if they were pinned or made to submit during the match, they would lose what they wagered. Mick Foley would wager the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, Kurt Angle would risk his leadership of the villainous alliance The Main Event Mafia, Sting would retire from wrestling, and Jarrett would wager his voting shares within the company, thus putting up his authority. Another storyline heading into Sacrifice was between A.J. Styles and Booker T. At Destination X, Styles won the TNA Legends Championship from Booker, intensifying their rivalry. On the April 30 edition of ''Impact!'', one final confrontation between the two led to TNA management scheduling Styles to defend his title in an "I Quit" match against Booker T; this match requires the two wrestlers to fight until one wrestler says, "I Quit". The main rivalry from the women's division was between Angelina Love and Awesome Kong. At Lockdown, Love won the TNA Women's Knockout Championship from Kong in a three-way match by pinning Taylor Wilde. On the April 30 and May 7 editions of ''Impact!'', Kong defeated Love's associates in her group, The Beautiful People, Madison Rayne and Velvet Sky (and later Love's manager, Cute Kip) in stretcher matches. In the tag team division, current IWGP Tag Team and TNA World Tag Team Champions, Team 3D (Brother Ray and Brother Devon), announced the ''Team 3D Invitational Tag Team Tournament''. The tournament would be an eight-team, three-round single-elimination tournament with the winning team receiving a trophy, a check for $100,000, and a shot at the TNA World Tag Team Championship. On the May 7 edition of ''Impact!'', in the semi finals, James Storm and Robert Roode, also known as Beer Money, Inc., advanced to the finals by defeating Eric Young and Jethro Holliday. The following week of ''Impact'' had Doug Williams and Brutus Magnus (collectively known as The British Invasion) advancing to the finals after defeating Suicide and Amazing Red. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sacrifice (2009)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
