It's time to answer some burning, pressing questions from last night's TNA Impact following the conclusion of the Claire Lynch storyline and continuation of Aces & Eights, as proposed by PWTorch reader Jim H. below.

(1) How did Jeremy Borash get the results of the paternity test? What happened to confidentiality? If you were a lab that did paternity tests would you release the results to the potential father who took the test or a ring announcer from a wrestling company?

In addition to informing underqualified Developmental wrestlers, "This is your GUTTTT CHECKKKKKKK!" JB's job duties have been expanded to Styles's attorney/spokesman/caretaker.

(2) How could A.J. have taken a paternity test and gotten results back if Claire was never pregnant in the first place? How could they have even performed the test at all? It seems like everyone should have known what was up before Claire's "lawyer" showed up.

It really does make you wonder what was contained in document JB was holding. Was he in on the ruse, as well? Or, perhaps the documents were mixed up and he was going to accidentally reveal the identity of Samoa Joe's kidnapper.

(3) What would have happened if A.J. had lost the match to Daniels last week and been forced to admit paternity of a non-existent child per the stipulations to the match?

BFG Series malfunction - UFC 151 cancelled - fake baby storyline - confused tourists - bad acting - Styles selling an errant Serg punch ... that really happened, didn't it? = um... why did this storyline occur in the first place?

(4) Where was the blackmail? I see fraud and there was clearly some criminal activity regarding drugging A.J., but I don't recall Daniels and Kaz ever saying anything like "lay down for us in the tag match or we'll expose you." It seemed like they were doing it more to make A.J.'s life miserable than anything else.

Paging Pat McNeill.

(5) So, are Daniels and Kaz going to be arrested? Of course, I'm also still waiting for Madison and Tara to be arrested for intentionally running over Mickie James with a motorcycle last year.

TNA's crack security is still trying to figure out the "breach" that allowed Aces & Eights to run wild for weeks. By the way, no one has seen Tara during these fake motorcycle gang skits. Why doesn't someone question her?! C'mon, Mike and Taz, let's jump to some conclusions!

(6) Why does Sting act like a 10-year-old boy with ADD?

Because the Claire Lynch storyline seems like it was written by a 10-year-old. And, apparently, Sting just watched Jim Carrey in "The Mask" for the first time.

(7) Why would you have Hogan involved in any physicality when he can barely move?

TNA wanted to pop a rating to boost their inconsistent live summer run, so they figured an immobile Hogan grunting like an animal is better than no Hogan. At least we found out that "going old-school" was Hogan turning Hollywood and not getting himself on TMZ again.

(8) What was Aries doing all night before the final segment?

Trying to locate the X Division, which has suddenly disappeared, to hold a meeting. (Hey, has anyone questioned Mark Haskins about Aces & Eights yet?!) And, figure out a way to sneak over Full Sail University to watch Punk & Black vs. Hero & Claudio without anyone noticing.
