Last night's TNA Impact, built around Kurt Angle's next to last match with Bobby Roode, saw a rating increase from last week. Though, it was the second lowest since the move to Pop TV. The 9 p.m. show did 258,000 viewers, the third lowest since moving to Pop, but up 23 percent from last week's 210,000. The midnight show did 68,000 viewers, which was the lowest number for the midnight show to date. Overall the number was up 10 percent from Lockdown last week.

"Storm pulls out two beers to celebrate Kurt’s career. The only problem is Kurt doesn’t want a beer, so James pulls out a jug of milk. Kurt chugs down the milk as the crowd chants, “Chug! Chug! Chug!” Kurt says that he wants to see Beer Money vs. TNA Champs The Wolves. The Wolves came down the ring to join the celebration and to show respect to Kurt. The Wolves agree to defend their titles against Beer Money. Josh says it’s official for next week." Check out the full results from last week's show.

The Kurt Angle Farewell Tour and Kurt Angle’s TNA career comes to an end next week. The main event and Kurt's final match in TNA will see him face “The Destroyer”, Lashley. TNA Tag Champs The Wolves will also defend their title against Beer Money.
