TNA Impact 12/3/09 Review
Desmond Wolfe shows up in ring and talks about how he hates “mangles”, which is Kurt Angle. He announces that him and Angle will go into a three stages of hell match at Turning Point, and I’m already bored.
Kurt Angle came out and climbed the six sides of steel, started fighting Desmond Wolfe and was laid out. Wolfe won this round, leaving Angle in the ring on the floor, like a chump.
I’m not 100% sure where this is going but if Angle doesn’t lose against Wolfe soon, this feud is dead in the water.
Alex Shelley defeated Doug Williams
The new Motor Machine Guns music still sucks. This match was interesting and had some good points. While I didn’t really care for whatever storyline they were pushing, but I did think some of the spots were dead on. These two can really go, however, the match was a little short for what it was, and it was interesting to see these guys go for such a short time and still put something together. Alex Shelley put away the British Invasion member after sliced bread, and that was that.
Suicide defeated Homicide
This match wasn’t all that great, Homicide seemed like he had to tone things down a little to match Suicides speed. Suicide didn’t really impress me, and it’s been going on for weeks, he just doesn’t seem into it anymore. I never liked the character, and this match proved it for me. Homicide did have some good moments, he put on a show as usual, but it wasn’t for him to win.
Post match, the Pope came in to save suicide.
Tara was the guest on ODB’s show. It was boring. I’m tired of the knockouts division now, they used to have great matches and no drama. Now? They suck, with lots of random drama.
The Pope Dangelo Dinero defeated Jesse Neal
This match sucked. Plain and simple. Jesse Neal isn’t ready for the big time and Dinero didn’t do much wrestling, and carried the match.
Post match, Suicide is now aligned with the pope….who cares!
Kevin Nash & Erik Young defeated Beer Money
I like Beer Money, but this match wasn’t given enough time to develop into something more than a mashed up match. There were some nice near falls, and Beer Money had a good chance, but it was Nash and Erik Young that pulled away, after the ref was distracted for a while, and that was that.
Bobby Lashley came down to the ring to cut a promo. He didn’t do much talking, his wife did. It was boring.
Christopher Daniels defeated Abyss
Christopher Daniels couldn’t really do much in this match, he kept trying to wrestle Abyss but it wasn’t working at all. Abyss then got distracted by a video of “Lauren” getting abused by the Beautiful People, and Abyss loses the match with a roll up. This match sucked, and it was boring.
Post match, Daniels challenged Styles to a match, but a masked man ran out and knocked out Styles before he could get to the ring.
The show then shifted to an interview with Dixie Carter. It’s a boring thing…Carter keeps coming out and saying TNA is going straight at WWE for competition…whatever. I was already tired, but she made me more tired with all this talk about “Hulk Hogan” and what not.
In the main event, Saria and Hamada? Yep.
Hamada defeated Sarita
Wow, this is so interesting, a women’s match is the main event on Impact! This is kind of cool. I take back some of what I said earlier about the knockouts, because these two women aren’t involved in any major drama and they are just pure pro-wrestling and it’s rad. These two really put a good show together. Hamada ended up putting Sarita away with the Hamada driver, and I thought this match (despite the short time frame) was quite good for a women’s match.
Kurt Angle came down to ringside, but Foley interrupted. He was put into match with Raven & Doctor Stevie.
Kurt Angle defeated Raven & Doctor Stevie
Yes! Stevie Richards and Raven are back together for a match! ECW ECW ECW ECW! I thought the women’s match was the main event, but I was wrong. I apologize. Anyways, this is a cool beat down on Kurt Angle. Both men were attacking Angle straightway without having to tag in at all. This fat match ended with Kurt Angle getting the Ankle Lock and making Raven tap. Of course, Kurt Angle got a little assist from Abyss!
Post match, Desmond Wolfe hit Kurt Angle with a sick move and it was over. The night of TNA finally was done.

Alex Shelley and Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal defeated Team 3-D

Samoa Joe defeated Booker T in a first blood match
Shane Douglas defeated Aj Styles
Tara defeated Madison Rayne
Kurt Angle defeated Sting in a King of the Mountain Qualifier
TNA Impact 6/11/09 Review
The show opens up with Foley, talking on the mic, boring me and the rest of the bloggers that review wrestling to death. Foley is good on the mic, but he doesn’t need to be champ and he doesn’t need to be on the mic so much when there’s so many opportunities that can be created. Double J came out to the ring, and then after some words were exchanged got beat up by Foley’s security guards.
Alex Shelley Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal defeated Team 3-D
Team 3-D has lost more than a step as they have aged here. They seem to be getting too old to fight off the average onslaught of guys that they are in the ring with. Lethal used to mimic Macho Man’s style way more, now he’s just slow, and really not as good. Shelley and Lethal worked together for a good amount of time, but this match just seemed very forced from Team 3-D almost as if they were just going through slow motions to get through this match up. Giving it all they had wasn’t enough as Team 3-D still managed to fight off all 4 people in the various teams, and they even knocked off the British Invasion for a few moments. Doug Williams hit Bubba Ray Dudley with a steel case and made Team 3-D lose the match. Lame match, slow and just forced.
It was around 9:44 and this match started….there’s not much wrestling on TNA these days in the first hour.
Samoa Joe defeated Scott Steiner in a first blood match
This match was supposed to be a first blood match, and it started with simply Samoa Joe and Scott Steiner. There were a lot of head shots in this match as this was in fact a First Blood Match. Word on the street said that Samoa Joe is injured too. Steiner was busted wide open after Samoa Joe put a trash can on top of him then went to town with a lead pipe! That was kind of cool…a little extreme.
Samoa Joe defeated Booker T in a first blood match
This match was a complete piece of junk. Seriously, who writes these things? This match was terrible. First off Joe was way tired and second Booker T didn’t get busted open significantly. It so happened that a lead pipe to the stomach caused Booker T to start bleeding and therefore he lost the match. He was “coughing” up blood! What the heck? This was one of the worst insults to my intelligence as a wrestling fan in a long time, this is a travesty; and I guess Samoa Joe continues his victories, although I still hear he’s injured.
Shane Douglas defeated Aj Styles
Shane Douglas hasn’t been in the sun in a long time and it showed. He also was fatter than usual. Douglas looked like someone’s fat, out of shape stepfather. However, he hit really hard against Styles, and although Styles was carrying he momentum in the match, Shane Douglas managed to fight his way through a bunch of different pieces to make a better match than all of his xpw exploits. Out of the blue Aj Styles hit an arm bar and submitted Shane Douglas. This match sucked, Douglas is cool when he’s not fat.
Post match Christopher Daniels ran down to help Aj Styles, only to get beat down by Shane Douglas. This prompted Samoa Joe down to the ring for the save…and Shane Douglas runs away. This segment sucked…just so you know.
Tara defeated Madison Rayne
Tara is just Victoria, and she is already sporting knee brace…awesome. Seeing Tara in TNA is really impressive, she works really well in ring and proves yet again that she wasn’t really a diva, she was a wrestler trapped in Vince McMahon’s pony show. Speaking of wrestling, Madison Rayne can also wrestle. The two of these women put on a show that didn’t get me aroused, it got me interested in women’s wrestling yet again! Tara won this match after a sweet standing moonsault and the Widow’s Peak! Great match, best thing on TNA this week, hands down.
Kurt Angle defeated Sting in a King of the Mountain Qualifier
I give it to TNA they did put on a main event caliber main event. The two icons in TNA right now put on a decent match up considering that they’ve already given this match on ppv many times over. The two kept going at it in a lot of rest holds and random classic wrestling reversals, but still managed to get in a few great power moves. The ending was great, with some sweet reversals, and some great technical know how, these two put on quite the psychologically driven twist at the end. However, it looked like it Sting who got the best of Angle, after a nice powerbomb. Matt Morgan came down to ringside to distract Sting for a moment and allow Kurt Angle to get the upper hand, and boom..the Angle Slam and it was all over.

TNA Impact 3/5/09 Results and Review Angle Suspended
TNA opens with a message from Jeff Jarrett. He states that Angle has been suspended without pay for beating up Foley and himself. Then we get into the night of wrestling…oh boy.
The show continued to having Sting out at ringside and getting a pep talk from Kevin Nash. It was boring. The same thing that was going on for a while now, nothing to even mention; TNA is doing it wrong, that’s for sure, another terrible opening from Tna, thanks.
Alex Shelley defeated Kiyoshi
The small guys throw together an ok match up. Kiyoshi is an interesting wrestler and has a definitive Great Muta vibe going. I still think Alex Shelley has the worst music in professional wrestling. I haven’t heard such lame music for a champion in a long time. The match seemed a half step too slow, and I wonder if Kiyoshi has a language barrier in this match up. He put up a great match but the champion seemed to know what to do, and how to react to Kiyoshi’s strong style of wrestling. Overall, this match was way too slow. I think that TNA needs to allow more time for these x-division match ups to develop.
Post match, Suicide came down to the ring and beat up The Motor City Machine Guns. This masked wrestler is the worst idea for TNA. Whomever is under the mask, sucks.
The Beautiful People defeated Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed and Sojourner Bolt & Rhaka Khan, and Roxxi & Taylor Wilde
The knockouts are ok. At least in this match, there’s just too much going on in this match. A lot of fast moves, a lot of quick tags, and not a whole lot of in ring action. This match was way too fast, and it finished quickly, with interference from Madison Rayne. I’m not sure why TNA doesn’t let their matches develop stories, they just go out there and have clusters of explosive action. It’s funny to me that they have Governor Palin in there, she’s dropping bombs with the Thrilla from Wasilla! It’s funny to me because my wife is from Alaska, and I’ve been to that city, it’s nothing crazy. Alright, the match was ok at best.
Samoa Joe brings out a knife and nearly cuts Scott Steiner with it. Also, Aj Styles stole the Legends Title, only to get arrested for it. Then Don West and Mike Tenay argued over some random crap, all of this and no wrestling action.
Matt Morgan defeated Shane Sewell
This match was a squashing of Shane Sewell. Matt Morgan sucks, and doesn’t really showcase a lot of charisma to me. Matt Morgan wins, easy, and that’s it.
Oh, the running gag on the show was that Double J gave Kurt Angle’s salary to the x-division guys. They all bought suits and looked sharp on Angle’s dime. So every other interview had Kurt Angle beating them up for it. It was lame, but it’s the running gag.
LAX defeated Beer Money via disqualification
Once again, the best part of TNA this week has to be these tag team title matches. Beer Money has some great chemistry together and reminds me a lot of the old Brain Busters team at times. LAX looked like they were on the way to another title reign,but Beer Money deliberately were disqualified so that they wouldn’t loose the belts! LAX wins, but doesn’t get the titles. Team 3-D runs down to help LAX and Beer Money make their exits.
At the start of Impact Double J clearly said he wasn’t a wrestler and that Sting would handle Kurt Angle. At the end of the show Double J and Kurt Angle were fighting each other. This was basically a street fight, and Double J was desperately trying to get over with the TNA impact crowd. He was basically fighting Kurt Angle tooth & nail. Jeff Jarrett threw Kurt Angle out of the building, with a little help from Team 3-D and Mick Foley, and the crowd went nuts for this ending of Impact.
You know what? Not bad Tna, you guys made something crappy turn out kind of cool at the end. Good job for once.

TNA Impact 2/2609 Results and Review The Main Event Mafia Saga
I didn’t want to review TNA this week, because I’m so jaded. TNA hasn’t had a whole lot to offer in a long time. However, tonight, I thought something might happen, so I tuned in and here is what I saw.
The Beautiful People defeated Madison Rayne & Taylor Wilde
I’m not sure why, but I always think that The Beautiful People have been in porno movies. They just have that “porno” quality to me. I guess hat’s a good thing in regards to keeping me watching, good job Tna? This match was not half ad, the women in TNA can actually wrestle and they know a little bit about in ring psychology, which is something that is missing from a lot of wwe diva matches. Madison Rayne looks like a mix of Jenna Jameson and Jenny McCarthy, and officially turned heel after slapping Taylor Wilde, letting The Beautiful People pick up the victory.
Beer Money defeated The Rock N Rave Infection
What can I say? Beer Money has to be the best tag team in wrestling right now. They work well togther, they cheat to win, and they work stiff if need be. The majority of their matches usually end with something going awry for the other team, but overall, these guys are like a well oiled machine, and it’s something that TNA can capitalize on. WWE does not have a good tag team division, but if TNA could make the tag teams as important as the rest of the roster, we could see a huge upgrade of viewers of the product. I know I remember when WWF released The Best of WWF and it was all tag matches, that was interesting to me, and I would still watch tag teams if they were as good as Beer Money. Alas, that’s not going to happen anytime soon.
Sojourner Bolt & Rhaka Khan defeted Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed
The Knockouts once again shined in this match up. The second on the show, and it wasn’t bad. Bolt seemed to be trying too hard, slipping up here and there. Khan is not ready for this level of involvement as she was looking green out there. Saeed, I bet is sexy under all that mystery, just a quick note. The match was good and fast, the spots weren’t insane, but overall, this was a good match up, better than any wwe divas match, that’s for sure. Bolt got the pin with a backslide, pinning combination.
Alex Shelley defeated Lethal Consequences and Chris Sabin in a 4 way ladder match
This match was too short. There weren’t many high spots, no bloodshed, and not a whole lot to this match up. It was obviously shorted because it was on television and no on ppv. The match went on and the guys tried to do their best, but it just wasn’t enough. Shelley sprinted up to the top, pulled the belt and successfully defended his x-division title. This match should’ve been given the full last section of the show or a ppv match up.
The whole show ended with a terrible contract signing. This show ended so bad that I wanted to just fall asleep.

Tna Against All Odds 2009 Results and Review
The February ppv for TNA had a stacked card. Well, Stacked for TNA, and it was interesting to say the least. Here is how it all happened live on PPV!
Alex Shelley defeated Eric Young
Eric Young finally got another shot at the x-division title shot, and this time it’s not with Sheik Abdul Bashir. It’s against Alex Shelley, and you know what? The Alex Shelley music sucks so bad, man they need to get him something heavier. This match started out really well. Eric Young had a few missteps and Shelley took advantage of that, making a go for it, and introduction Young to a world of pain, with a lot of rest holds and random submission holds. Eric Young got a second win, and started blocking Alex Shelley’s attempts to get the upper hand. Eric Young then turned things around with a top rope leg drop and then things started to look on the up and up for him, until he missed a moonsault! I definitely thought this match some serious legs, and things looked like they were over many different times. I haven’t seen a good match in a while, and it seems that at least once or twice a month TNA introduces to us what professional wrestling is all about. The super bulldog from Shelley was insane, and the huge frog splash was incredible to say the least. After the near falls from those two moves, there seemed to be a few misses, and I swore that Eric Young screwed up a little. While Eric Young was distracted Shelley took the advantage and rolled up Young, pulled the tights and won the match! Alex Shelley retains the X-division championship.
Big Poppa Pump defeated Petey Williams
I personally feel that this is a complete mismatch, but that’s just me. I don’t know about you, but these two are NOT evenly matched whatsoever. Scott Steiner was getting the best of Petey Williams, creating a David vs Goliath scenario that we see a lot in the WWE with Rey Mysterio. Petey did manage a lot of short dropkicks, ala Konnan, and Steiner definitely had to really sell them, because Williams was proving to be a little more agile than I thought he would be against Big Poppa Pump. Steiner was flustered midway through this match, and it showed as the match went on longer. Steiner has a lot of weight to carry and it didn’t look like Steiner was working on his Cardio too much. Williams was basically smothered throughout the match up. Steiner cinched on the Steiner Recliner on Williams, but Petey managed to get to the ropes and Steiner let him go. Steiner defeated Petey Williams with the first time I’ve seen a reverse Piledriver since Owen Heart screwed up Stone Cold’s neck! Steiner wins with one of the sickest piledriver’s I’ve ever seen. He then finishes things off after the match up with a huge Angle slam off the middle rope.
FYI Samoa Joe’s new face pain makes him look stupid. He calls out Scott Steiner.
Brutus Magnus defeated Chris Sabin
Magnus put out an open challenge. Sabin answered, but his theme music made him look like a chump. This match was kind of funny to me. Magnus is NOT as big as the monster he is trying to portray. His style is similar to Lex Luger’s old style, but he isn’t as big or as tall. He spent a lot of the time trying to look more monstrous than he really was. Magnus hit some finishing move and got the win. Sabin didn’t stand a chance, Sabin sucks and his music sucks.
Someone should tell TNA that they don’t need a 20 minute backstage interview with Team 3-D. They aren’t Hogan, they aren’t Ultimate Warrior, they aren’t charismatic enough to get that kind of position. Oh well.
Awesome Kong defeated ODB
Awesome Kong went right to work on ODB after an initial flurry from the latter. Things weren’t too unlike what we already see on impact, with ODB getting in a good amount of offense before Awesome Kong started to throw her weight around, literally. Awesome Kong then hit a succession of her signature moves, and finally the Implant buster and BOOM! Awesome Kong defeats ODB once again proving that she is the most dominant of all the TNA knockouts.
Booker T defeated Shane Sewell
Booker T looked weak in a lot of this match up. The former or current ref was going nuts after a few minutes of getting beat. His style isn’t lending well to the much taller and bigger Booker T. Once things were going his way, he dropped his guard and Booker T made him pay! Booker T took out the ref, and kept his “legends” title, in one of the worse feuds ever produced for professional wrestling today. Booker T won this one, and then was set to beat on the ref more, but out came Aj Styles! Aj Styles came out and started fighting off Booker! Booker was taking some major shots, and most likely will defend the legends belt against AJ Styles later on. In fact, to foreshadow that, Styles was standing in the ring with the Belt and got on the mic to yammer…lame.
Abyss defeated Matt Morgan
Abyss took a lot of punishment in this match up. The match went all over the arena and eventually got back to the inside of the ring. Matt Morgan was letting Abyss work stiff, as Abyss was hitting heavy handed, closed fists to the top of his head. Abyss was taking liberties at different moments. Eventually the match got more plunder involved and after a few referee bumps, things really got out of control. Abyss eventually landed a black hole slam onto a chair for the big win. Abyss went out and got some thumbtacks and spread them all over the ring, but Morgan left before any damage could be done. Overall a stupid match, with no major moments that I can remember; which hopefully means we’ll never see these idiots fight again.
Beer Money defeated Lethal Consequences
If you’ve seen one tag team title match between Beer Money and any other team on the TNA roster, than you’ve seen them all. This match didn’t exactly thrill too hard. Sure there were moments where you thought someone was going to win, but overall it was the standard Beer Money doing whatever they could to win. So by saying that much, you got a good overall tag team match up. Beer Money is a sure fire throwback to the glory days of Tag Team wrestling! These guys are going to go on to be one of the hall of famers…as far as teams are concerned. Lethal Consequences got a lot of tags in this match up, which is expected. Beer Money walked away yet again with the titles, proving that they are probably hands down the best tag team in TNA right now.
Sting defeated Kurt Angle, Devon Dudley, and Bubba Ray Dudley
I was under the impression that this match was a four way match up, but Team 3D kept it a tag team affair. For the most part it was just them beating the hell out of Sting and Kurt Angle. Right when I started writing that, they were left in the ring together, alone, and they started to go at each other. They just went back and forth, nothing too spectacular, just rights and lefts with Devon getting the early edge before Bubba Ray started shifting his weight around and getting the upper hand. Devon is obviously the more fit of the two as Bubba Ray got tired fast and the two ended their action with a double clothesline, picture perfect double Clothesline; their fight was short lived. The match took a turn for the fun when Sting got locked into a figure four right next to Kurt Angle who was locked into a Boston crab submission hold! He was trying to pin Sting, who was right next to him. Both competitors got out of the holds and they started fighting each other. Kurt Angle got the better of the battle, and I thought for sure he was going to take Sting in this match up, as he was setting Sting up to lose this one. Best spot of the night, definitely was the Doomsday Device that Team 3-D did on Kurt Angle. After the dust settled, Sting hit the scorpion death lock on Bubba Ray to win this one and retain the TNA World Title.

Alex Shelley defeated Eric Young
Eric Young finally got another shot at the x-division title shot, and this time it’s not with Sheik Abdul Bashir. It’s against Alex Shelley, and you know what? The Alex Shelley music sucks so bad, man they need to get him something heavier. This match started out really well. Eric Young had a few missteps and Shelley took advantage of that, making a go for it, and introduction Young to a world of pain, with a lot of rest holds and random submission holds. Eric Young got a second win, and started blocking Alex Shelley’s attempts to get the upper hand. Eric Young then turned things around with a top rope leg drop and then things started to look on the up and up for him, until he missed a moonsault! I definitely thought this match some serious legs, and things looked like they were over many different times. I haven’t seen a good match in a while, and it seems that at least once or twice a month TNA introduces to us what professional wrestling is all about. The super bulldog from Shelley was insane, and the huge frog splash was incredible to say the least. After the near falls from those two moves, there seemed to be a few misses, and I swore that Eric Young screwed up a little. While Eric Young was distracted Shelley took the advantage and rolled up Young, pulled the tights and won the match! Alex Shelley retains the X-division championship.
Big Poppa Pump defeated Petey Williams
I personally feel that this is a complete mismatch, but that’s just me. I don’t know about you, but these two are NOT evenly matched whatsoever. Scott Steiner was getting the best of Petey Williams, creating a David vs Goliath scenario that we see a lot in the WWE with Rey Mysterio. Petey did manage a lot of short dropkicks, ala Konnan, and Steiner definitely had to really sell them, because Williams was proving to be a little more agile than I thought he would be against Big Poppa Pump. Steiner was flustered midway through this match, and it showed as the match went on longer. Steiner has a lot of weight to carry and it didn’t look like Steiner was working on his Cardio too much. Williams was basically smothered throughout the match up. Steiner cinched on the Steiner Recliner on Williams, but Petey managed to get to the ropes and Steiner let him go. Steiner defeated Petey Williams with the first time I’ve seen a reverse Piledriver since Owen Heart screwed up Stone Cold’s neck! Steiner wins with one of the sickest piledriver’s I’ve ever seen. He then finishes things off after the match up with a huge Angle slam off the middle rope.
FYI Samoa Joe’s new face pain makes him look stupid. He calls out Scott Steiner.

TNA Impact 1/23/09 Results and Review The End of the Original
TNA Impact came blazing through their 1/23/09 edition, and there was some good matches lined up.
Alex Shelley defeated Sonjay Dutt, Sheik Abdul Bashir, and Chris Sabin
TNA seems to love these style matches, where the titles are on the line in a cluster of a match with several opponents. These matches are usually high spot after high spot, with little or no psychology to speak of. This match was fast paced, and it did not appear that any one person had a clear advantage over the other. Booker T’s wife came down the ramp and was at ringside, which seemed odd. Shelley and Dutt put on a good showing in this match up and Sabin was helping Shelley retain in various moments of this match up. Shelley rolled up an opponent into an odd pinning situation and won this match, retaining his X Division title.
ODB defeated Sojourner Bolt via disqualification
Bolt started this match by attacking ODB’s leg, trying to isolate a body part, just like classic technical wrestlers of the past would do. ODB was getting the upper hand towards the end of this match up, but Awesome Kong came out and caused the disqualification. Kong hit the implant buster and ODB was out cold. Roxxi and Taylor Wilde came out for the save.
Booker T & Scott Steiner defeated Eric Young & Petey Williams
This was an interesting match up. Williams and Young really pushed things in t his math up and it looked like the main event mafia wasn’t that good after all. Steiner was bumping a lot more than usual. Booker T of course wasn’t going to let the win occur and really caused the break up of a lot of different pinning combinations. This was an elimination style tag team match, and after Eric Young was eliminated it was all downhill for Petey Williams. The main event mafia wins again.
Beer Money defeated Matt Morgan and Abyss in a First Blood Match
First blood matches are dumb to me. I used to like them back when I was younger, but that was only because there were some compelling fights that deserved it. This match didn’t really deserve that gimmick, and especially not on television for free. Maybe, and this is a low maybe, it might be worthwhile on a ppv. Even after heavy shots with chairs, no one was bleeding at all. Matt Morgan was ready to hit Beer Money with a chair and swerved everyone, he hit Abyss square in the face with a big chair shot, prompting Abyss to bleed. Matt Morgan has turned on Abyss, in a swerve that we saw coming for week!
Kurt Angle defeated Aj Styles in a Tables Match
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles fought in a Tables match up at the end of Impact. I wasn’t sure who would win this one, but it was good none the less. Aj Styles flew off the ring apron and Angle was immediately winded. This match was interesting to say the least, as the two have wrestled each other many different times. Kurt Angle was definitely the aggressor towards the end of this match up, forcing Aj Styles to try and comeback for the win. They eventually set up table and Angle took a nut shot onto a table sideways that looked bad. Styles built some momentum towards the end of the match, and the crowd was firmly behind him as he was setting up for a victory. Kurt Angle moved out of the way of Aj flying off the top rope, then hit the Angle Slam through the table and defeats AJ Styles!

This edition of TNA Impact wasn't all that great. I think there were too many backstage segments. Some of the matches were decent, but overall, this show wasn't all that fun for me. I felt there was still something missing overall. I can't really put my finger on it.
