Tna Impact 8/6/09 Review

TNA opened up with a flashback of Erik Young and Kurt Angle arriving at the arena.

The show officially opened and of course it was Kurt Angle and the main event mafia in ring babbling about random crap. It wasn’t exactly the most thrilling of things, and to be honest, it was quite boring to me. Kurt Angle comes out and whines every single week and this wasn’t any different. Kurt Angle announces that he’s struck a deal with the British Invasion.

This is the WORST thing that could happen. The Main Event Mafia is now N.W.O 2009! That’s right, the N.W.O and the Main Event Mafia is exactly the same now. Too many members, so boring, and all older guys that should be letting the young guys in; I wanted to just quit watching TNA at this point, I am so sick of this N.W.O cloning, and I’m sure others are also tired…TNA is really blowing it, worse than WCW ever did.

Erik Young defeated Christopher Daniels

Christopher Daniels started this match fast, and Erik Young needed help from the outside in order to slow things down, however it was to no avail as Daniels leaped through the ropes and hit Young on the outside. However, the distraction caused Daniels to lose his focus and never really recovered. Sheik Abdul Bashir and Kiyoshi kept running into the match, distracting the ref, and really not helping Daniels stay on top of his game. Erik Young eventually picked up the victory after a nice looking piledriver. This match was ok at best, kind of standard, Daniels jobbing hurts, cause he has so much talent. I remember his feud with Samoa Joe for the x-division title, 4 star matches, but now? He’s jobbing, and that’s sad.

The British Invasion, Scott Steiner & Booker T defeated Beer Money & Team 3D

I swear one of the guys on the British Invasion is juicing hardcore. Other than that observation, I didn’t see this match as that great. Team 3D were starting this match with back and forth tags, good overall offense, and really putting forth effort in an otherwise overly crowded match up. The match eventually had a slight turn for the British guys, but it was short lived as Team 3D was controlling every aspect of this match up. That is until Erik Young, Bashir, and Kiyoshi came down. That prompted the Machine Guns and Daniels to run down to ringside, and this match was a complete cluster. Kevin Nash came down, and this was worse than WCW 2000, seriously this is a load of crap. Foley came out, and now there were bout 10 or 12 wrestlers down at ringside fighting and brawling, the match was apparently not thrown out at this point This seriously mirrored Nitro, and I really wanted to stop watching this, this is such a stupid show. TNA SUCKS! I HATED THIS! The match continued and Big Rob (the most juiced wrestler I’ve seen in a long time) pinned Robert Rude and that was that. This match sucked, I hated the way this turned out. This was seriously one of the lowest points in TNA history for me.

The show continued to focus on backstage brawls, antics and random crap that we saw in the failing days of N.W.O in WCW. It’s a shame that TNA is writing such terrible wrestling shows, because they had some potential in the past weeks. The whole roster was fighting each other, that’s it.

Sarita & Taylor Wilde defeated Alissa Flash & Traci Brooks

Alissa Flash once again shined in this match, despite Sarita’s offensive control early on. Flash is a well tuned wrestler, but more impressive was Sarita with a dazzling display of Lucha Libre style dives and top rope offense. Flash of course contrasted the style with hard mat wrestling against Taylor Wilde, showing off her skill set and strong style, which isn’t seen often in women’s wrestling. The weak link here was Traci Brooks, her large breasts were getting in the way of her wrestling, and she was obviously two steps slower than the other competitors in this match; she was moving half speed compared to the other three women in this match up. She also missed a lot of moves, and was botching things left and right. Sarita was the one that got the better of the women with a roll up and a nice array of Lucha Libre moves. I think Flash and Sarita are great wrestlers and not just divas. Traci Brooks, though, is a terrible wrestler.

There was an interview with Hernandez and Mike Tenay. It was kind of boring.

Matt Morgan defeated Aj Styles

Aj Styles beat Morgan last time, so I naturally knew that Matt Morgan would get his payback for this best of three series. Styles had a lot of speed in this match and while Morgan is a fast big man, he’s not faster than Styles and it painfully showed during this match up. Morgan used hiss strength to ground Sttyles though, and it was obvious that Morgan wasn’t going to just let Styles run circles around him. Morgan was ready for Styles every move and eventually hit the Hellevator and won with an impressive set of offensive. This was really good, considering the match was a little short. I guess seeing such a bad opening and first hour made this match seem better than it really was. Morgan is getting better, but I don’t think he can do it without being carried by a veteran like AJ Styles.

Sting defeated Brutus Magnus

Well, I was ready for bed, but apparently TNA wanted to throw one more match at us. I had to sit through yet another Sting match, and I'm not sure I was ready for it. The British Invasion was thrown out of ringside, so it was Sting solo with Brutus Magnus. Sting started this match with a clinic of old school wrestling. After many arm drags, hip tosses, and throws, Mangnus was thrown out of the ring to regroup and it was Sting that looked like the young buck rather than the veteran that he is. After a slight regrouping, Magnus was focusing on the legs of Sting and was really taking a page out of Bret Hart's book, with sole focus on the leg of Sting, setting up for a submission ending later, for sure. We cut to commercial and it was just a reversal as Sting cleaned up, put Magnus into the Scorpion Death Lock and made Brutus Magnus tap out with ease.

Post match The World Elite came down and tried to fight Sting, but Sting seemed to have most of this in control, until all 9 people attacked Sting. Once again, this was a reminder of NITRO with a TON of guys on one guy....sigh....Tna ruined this show. Lashley & Mick Foley ran down and fought off all comers, Lashley is now Goldberg 2009...TNA sucks, i'm sorry I'm going to bed...this was a terrible night of wrestling.

Oh and if you think I'm overly critical, get yourself the ending of this night of wrestling. 20+ guys in the ring beating up 3 guys. This was NWO all over again, it was so lame. Seriously, what a load of crap.

**NOTE***

The optometrist dilated my pupils, so I couldn’t see that well. I had to try and write this review with blurred vision. If you see mistakes, misspellings, errors, and overall syntax screw ups, it’s because my eyes didn’t adjust just yet. So please cut me some slack as I review the 200th episode of Impact!

Tna Impact 7/30/09 Review

We’ve come 200 episodes into this program and they still don’t know how to do it properly. Out came the Main Event Mafia, as usual, hitting the ring. Kurt Angle starting whining about Lashley and how he hit the Mafia last week, and that he’s demanding answers asap. Lashley came out and tried to do his best on the mic, something he couldn’t do in WWE. Foley came out, and once again this thing was another cluster of random mic’s yelling at each other. Foley set up a match where him and Lashley could win the Legends Belt or the World Title Belt…so lame. Every match has a dumb stipulation attached to it.

Hernandez defeated Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe follows up his loss last week by facing the bigger half of the Latin American Exchange. I already knew who was going to win in this match, but it had few good moments. Samoa Joe looks like he’s getting tired faster these days. Samoa Joe was dominating the match with lots of kicks and moves, but it was Hernandez that got the upper hand with some great offense, surprising the big man, with a splash and getting the quick win. I guess I was wrong again, Joe loses, despite Taz being there with him. I kid you not, Samoa Joe is getting tired faster.

***NOTE****

Alright folks at this point my eyes kept blurring in and out. My optometrist was checking for glaucoma and gave me some stinging eye drops, 6 sets of 3 different eye drops and my pupils were gone....so I couldn't finish this review. I'm sorry.

Here's the rest of the results, and I'll have a Smackdown review for sure.

Matt Morgan defeated Aj Styles in the first of their 2 out of 3 match series

I like how they are trying to be like WCW when Booker T and Chris Benoit had that best of 5 series. Those matches were amazing, these matches? Probably not.

Tna Impact 7/23/09 Review

Taz comes to the ring first thing, and the crowd is giving him a warm welcome. I like to see Taz in TNA. Taz gives a shoot style interview about how he wants to be more than a commentator. So he jumped shipped because he had to be in a Raw promotion, cause it reminded him a lot of ECW and he couldn’t resist. Taz put over Samoa Joe, he said that Joe is the second coming of Taz. I don’t know, Taz is good, but Samoa Joe is the second coming? I don’t know, I just don’t buy it. Taz had some top notch guys to work with, dare I remind you of his feud with Bam Bam Bigelow?

Homicide defeated Samoa Joe w/ Taz via disqualification

This was an odd match up. The x-division title is on the line, and I like this. Samoa Joe vs Christopher Daniels was one of the greatest matches TNA ever put on, and even The Meltz said it was near perfect. Whatever the case is, Joe was going right for Homicide, and really looked like the Joe of old, going for Suicide Dives, running the ropes, and trying hard to make this match work. However, Homicide was the one that was starring here, he reversed all sorts of attempts by Joe and took control early on in this match. Samoa Joe was flustered but he managed to get some good Suplexes in and looked at Taz, who applauded some of his moves. Midway through the match the Referee took a bump, Joe then blocked the Gringo Cutter and locked in his chokehold, and the ref called for the bell!

The winner is, as a result of a disqualification, HOMICIDE!

Post match Taz ordered Samoa Joe to beat up Homicide. Out came Hernandez, Super Mex and saved Homicide from a further beat down. Taz and Samoa Joe walked away, and didn’t engage Super Mex.

Kurt Angle and the Main Event Mafia came in ring and talked trash. It wasn’t very good, and didn’t really require a whole lot of recap…same old story from Kurt Angle. Foley came out later and he ranted about how he disagrees with Angle. Lame. They set up a “keys” on a pole match…so dumb.

Kevin Nash defeated The Amazing Red in a Legends Title match

As soon as Amazing Red was introduced, I realized that there was no way Kevin Nash was going to lose, in fact TNA has found another way to mock WWE by emulating their style of burying new comers. Nash was dominant early on and just played up his big man gimmick, throwing Amazing around the ring like a rag doll. Red had NO offense in that worked, not even a little bit. Kevin Nash dropped him with a Jacknife Power Bomb and called it a match. It sucks to bury talent, at least from my perspective and TNA once again takes a dump on their up and comers by having NASH obliterate Red.

Scott Steiner & Booker T defeated Big Rocco and Sally Boy in a tag team title match

This match sucked. The big security guys for Foley ended up wrestling this match. The dudes basically got beat down, and nothing major happened. This was definitely one of the worst matches in TNA tag team history, seriously. While the big men did get a little action in towards the end of the match, it was to no avail, they lost and that was that. One of the worst matches I’ve seen in a long time.

Tracy Brooks won a Konckouts Battle Royal

Awesome Kong, Madison Rayne, Velvet Sky, Angelina Love, Tara, Sojourner Bolt, ODB, Daffney, Sarita, Alissa Flash, and maybe others.

This match was an over the top rope battle royal with all the knockouts involved. It was a melee of a match, and not half bad. The match was your standard battle royal fare, my favorite? Awesome Kong, as she was delivering the blows to all women and no one was trying to throw her out; The final three was Tara, Sarita and Awesome Kong. Sarita was in there throwing up some great offense, despite this match being high risk for her as a high flyer. It didn’t last long once it was down to three, as she was thrown over by Awesome Kong. Kong and Tara were the final two in this match up. Awesome Kong and Tara were eliminated in the end, and the two finalists kept fighting at ring side.

The winner of this match was…Tracy Brooks! As the winner she gets 15k and is now a member of the Main Event Mafia.

The British Invasion, Sheik Abdul Bashir, Kiyoshi defeated Beer Money, Christopher Daniels, Aj Styles, and Erik Young

The TNA originals started this match with duel tag team moves, provided mainly by Beer Money. They were easily taking care of Bashir and Kiyoshi right off the bat, and were making quick tags as well. The foreigners were definitely in need of some offense in the early goings, as the originals were working like they were a team for a long time before this match was even booked. Big Rob Terry got things going for the foreigners and he’s got to be on the juice. He’s massive, he is built like a 1980’s action figure, massive upper body, no leg muscles to speak of, he’s a throwback on the juice for sure. The British Invasion began to really work together, balancing out the other side of things, showing that they weren’t just going to lay down and lose for the sake of losing. This match broke loose with all members flooding the ring, only to have the originals take over with the Styles clash set up…but Erik Young swerved us, turned on the originals and helped the foreigners win the match up! Young sucks now, he sucked when he was a face, and was only cool when he was part of that super hero group with Shark Boy and others.

Mick Foley defeated Kurt Angle in a keys to the tna office on a pole match via dq

I hate anything on a pole matches. I liked it in 1992 when Sting had that Coal Miners Glove match, but outside of that one match, I don’t like these gimmicky main events. It seems that TNA can’t put on an impact without having a lame gimmick at the end, with some terrible matches and rushed spots.

Foley started this match fresh and limping, but he was hitting Angle with some heavy shots to the head. He had early control, and Angle was trying to fire back, but Foley hung in there for a nice brawling start to this otherwise stupid match. At some points in this match Angle and Foley went half speed as to not injure themselves in this match. Foley was close to getting the keys several times but was stopped by Angle. These close calls were so slow, it looked terrible; of course no main event would be complete without having a sweet commercial break in the midst of it. So we get a lot of random crap. Upon returning from break, Foley had this match all sewn up. He hit the double arm ddt and put on SOCKO! He hit the mandible claw and things were looking sad for Kurt Angle! The Main Event Mafia ran down to save the day, the bell rang, and the match was thrown out.

This match was thrown out, the Main Event Mafia beat up Foley, the keys never got taken off the pole.

This whole night of wrestling was hard to watch. There were a few bright spots, but overall this thing wasn’t that great all…then out came Bobby Lashley! Lashley looked intimidating! So we have Lashley in TNA!

Lashley beat up the Main Event Mafia, after swerving Kurt Angle, much to the dismay of one Angle who got a stiff shot to the mouth.

TNA was hard to watch, I admit it. But I did it, unlike many wrestling podcasts that suck now.

Tna Impact 7/16/09 Review

As usual Foley comes out to talk. I don’t want to hear Foley any longer, but here he is, random speech about getting the TNA belt back. He called out Kurt Angle, and the champion obliged by coming to the ring. Foley was rambling about last week’s Barbed Wire beat down. He then was complimenting Angle for being a great wrestler and that on Sunday he hopes no Main Event Mafia will show up to interfere in their match up. Sting came out and started to call out Kurt Angle. He started to rant about how Kurt and Mick are liars and that this weekend we’re going to see who has the power to run TNA. Sting will wrestle Kurt Angle tonight in a six sides of steel match!

Backstage Samoa Joe was beating the crap out of The Amazing Red, I hated that, but oh well.

The Amazing Red defeated Samoa Joe via Disqualification

Samoa Joe beat up Amazing Red, then threw Rudy Charles across the ring, Rudy Charles called for the bell, I assume he lost the match. This was dumb.

There was some random interview segment with all the knockouts talking about random trash with Don West. It was a stupid segment, made to waste time.

Suicide defeated Chris Sabin

The Motor City Machine Guns have the worst music in TNA wrestling history. I hate their music with a passion. It’s time for a change. Sabin finally got a shot at Suicide, but it was non title, so it didn’t even matter to me who won. Suicide sucks, I’ve never liked his character and I don’t know why he has a title, as it didn’t even help the TNA video game sales. This match was fast paced and back and forth. No one had the real upper hand, but Sabin was definitely standing out. However, for all Sabin’s effort, Suicide kept hitting sling shot maneuvers and reversals to try and slow down the tempo. These two were no selling everything for the sake of time constraints. Sabin has such great timing in there and it showed, until Suicide caught him with a sick rolling slam and then hit Alex Shelley on the outside. Sabin hit a sweet spike ddt but couldn’t pick up the win. The Suicide Solution was hit and this match was over. I still don’t like Suicide, and this match was just too fast, there wasn’t enough time to develop at all.

Post match the Motor City Machine Guns fought Suicide and mopped him up. They set up a sweet leg drop onto a chair, and Suicide was out cold. Homicide came down to ringside and saved Suicide, chasing away the Motor City Machine Guns.

Homicide then decided to cash in his briefcase for a shot at the X-Division title shot.

Homicide defeated Suicide for the x-division championship

Homicide immediately pinned Suicide and thought he could just win it. He didn’t, and Suicide fought back, but was obviously winded from his last attempt. Homicide hit the Gringo Killer and won the X-Division championship! Not much of a match, but I liked it, go Homicide!

Angelina Love was in a complete haz-mat suit as the Beautiful People came out to do some talking. Angelina Love was saying that she wasn’t ready last week. She also said that this weekend Tara and her would go for the gold! Then Tara came out and hit the Widows Peak on Angelina Love, playing more mind games for this Sundays match. It was an ok segment and I loved how the women weren’t “divas” or anything like that, they were wrestlers building an angle, a rarity in professional wrestling right now.

Sarita defeated Alissa Flash

What’s this? Two new wrestlers? Yeah, TNA is introducing two new knockouts, and yes they can wrestle! Flash had a strong style, building on heavy moves and punches while Sarita had a pure Lucha Libre style. Sarita was in there showing off for sure, within ten seconds there was a Suicide Dive! Talk about real women’s wrestling! YES! Flash capitalized on a mistake and started to dismantle Sarita like a technical wrestler. Meanwhile Sarita was sticking to just a pure lucha style, trying to get from high spot to high spot, but that proved dangerous as Flash kept catching Sarita with mistakes. Flash did a nice surboard set up to curb stomp, and it looked like Sarita’s debut was going to get spoiled. Flash’s overhead back suplex into the corner was brilliant, shades of Bret Hart! Sarita won with a victory roll after some good back and forth, and this match was really good, best match of the night, no doubt.

Booker T & Kevin Nash & Scott Steiner defeated Beer Money & Aj Styles

Beer Money has to be one of the longer running tag teams in professional wrestling right now. I hope they never split them up, they work too well together; unlike wwe’s way of splitting things up and then burying the legacy. So here were, a six man tag and it wasn’t half bad. Aj started things off with Scott Steiner and the two were putting on a decent show. The match turned into a melee with everyone fighting in ring, then outside. The two left standing were Nash and Aj Styles, but it was Nash that ended this thing early with a huge Jacknife Power Bomb. He ended Aj’s hopes of winning this match, as the rules seemed to spin and it was an elimination match all of a sudden. I hate when TNA does this, on the fly too, but I guess it makes the match a little longer. Steiner eliminated James Storm, and this match was now a three on one match with Robert Roode stuck in the match against three members of the main event mafia. Booker T hit a book end after the commercial, and it seemed like this match was going south for Robert Roode. Roode managed to eliminate Kevin Nash but after that Booker T and Scott Steiner kept hitting each other on accident and Roode capitalized. He had this match sewn up nicely even hitting a nice spinebuster on Booker T, but it wasn’t to be as the numbers game just kept growing. Roode hit an amazing bridge suplex on Booker T but Sharmell was on the ring apron distracting the ref, and it was downhill with the Main event Mafia pulling off another win.

Kurt Angle vs Sting in a six sides of steel match ended in a no contest

This match couldn't half more than 10 minutes to unfold so it was somewhat tame. Sting tried to out wrestle Kurt, but it wasn't going to happen as Kurt is a real amateur wrestler and it showed in the onset of this match, gaining an easy upper hand against Sting. Sting got back with a stiff elbow, and this match started to come undone with Sting reversing Angle's momentum at every turn.

Then we got hit with commercials?

The match now had roughly 5 minutes to finish before the next program, meaning TNA must've edited the crap out of this match to fit into the time slot.

Sting got a second wind after the break and was totally dominating Kurt Angle. He set up his moves and was throwing Angle at the walls of the cage, but nothing was working. Angle hit a release German Suplex and the tables turned for Angle. Angle went for the Angle Slam but it was reversed right into the Scorpion Death Lock.

Meanwhile at the announce table Samoa Joe knocked out Jeff Jarrett then walked into the cage and locked it again. Samoa Joe then got hit with a Scorpion Death Lock! The lights went out and Samoa Joe was in a choke hold!

At this point Foley and Jarrett were trying to get into the cage, but the Mafia was controlling things outside. This match was ridiculous, Sting was getting chocked out, the match was thrown out I guess? I don't know, what a convoluted mess.

TNA Impact 6/25/09 Review

Brutus Magnus came down for a match was attacked by Bubba Ray Dudley, and it all spilled out into the crowd. Then things spilled back into the ring and out came all of the foreign wrestlers in TNA. They started stomping Bubba Ray Dudley, but in came Devon to save his partner, and it all ended with a 3-D through a table on Kiyoshi!

The Main Event Mafia came out and started to talk random crap. Kurt Angle looks great with a beard and such, he looks more sinister.

Foley came down to the ring and started talking crap as well.

Kevin Nash defeated Abyss

Kevin Nash was doing quite well. He was doing the normal Kevin Nash offense, hitting Abyss in the mid section with knees. Abyss turned things around and was fighting his way to a comeback. A steel chair was introduced to the match and Abyss put it in the corner, but the ref didn’t want to allow it. Stevie Richards was in the ring and he tazed the crap out of Abyss! That’s right a tazer! Kevin Nash then went for the pin, and it was all over. Kevin Nash defeated Abyss thanks to Stevie Richards.

Beer Money was in the ring and talking about their big win at the ppv. Scott Steiner and Booker T came down to ringside. They demanded a title shot, Team 3-D came down and made fun of everyone in the ring…nothing was resolved and we went to commercial break.

Taylor Wilde defeated Daffney in a 10,000 tack match

The first thing I thought about when watching this match up was that the women were working a little stiff and a little sloppy. There were obvious timing issues between the two knockouts, but that was made ok with the speed of the competitors. The match was over quick with Taylor Wilde dropping Daffney on the 10,000 tacks and it was over.

Scott Steiner defeated Robert Roode

This match was somewhat awkward. Neither man really had an upper hand and neither one was pushing the other to have a good match up. The match eventually broke down and Scott Steiner pulled of the victory. Overall this one was a terrible match up, and these two obviously aren’t gelling together. Steiner pulls one out, for a change, and Roode looked shocked.

James Storm defeated Booker T via disqualification

This match started slow, with Booker T looking way better. However, James Storm turned it around nicely and was definitely looking like he could stay in there with the sly veteran. The match ended when Booker T smashed a beer bottle on top of James Storm’s head! It was pretty cool, but it was a prop bottle indeed. Storm wins via dq…I think?

Aj Styles called out Samoa Joe and then started swinging! As Aj was getting the upper hand out ran Matt Morgan to assist Joe, then out came out Christopher Daniels to settle things up. Then out ran the Main Event Mafia, and things were getting worse.

Sting came out to the ring and starts talking about mutiny. This was a stupid night of TNA. This isn't much of a wrestling show as it truly is a soap opera. It ended terribly...what a lame night of wrestling...seriously. Sting name drops The Wolfpack! Kevin Nash talked about how they are all about money...lame. In the end Sting gave Nash a bat, and it came back to haunt him when Joe grabbed a bat and dropped Sting! Then the rest of the Main Event Mafia beat down Sting. He's now out of the mafia? I guess.

I like stables, but this one isn't working all that well...but then again, maybe I started to like it..sting was getting pummeled.

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 4/30/09 Review

The show opened u with Foley in the back talking to JB about random stuff. Jarrett refused comment, and the show began. A lame intro, that’s for sure.

Kurt Angle came out and talked about a global takeover, then we moved to Jarrett in the back telling Foley that he has to stay away from Jarrett.

Lame.

Amazing Red & Suicide defeated The Motor City Machine Guns

First thing that I noticed was that Amazing Red was in this match! He is fast and he is dead on accurate, I’m surprised to see him back. Suicide was his partner, but I didn’t care about that. Suicide wasn’t in this match a whole lot, as The Amazing Red was in there putting on a showcase. Sabin and Shelley had a few spots where they were beating up Red, but Red just kept going, eventually getting the hot tag. This match was cool, I liked Amazing Red before, but now that he’s a little older, he’s still on point and I hope I can see more of the guy in the x-division. Suicide sucks, I never liked him. Suicide Solution was hit and The Amazing Red and Suicide move forward in the tag team tournament, and wow, Amazing Red! He looks like a teenager, he’s insane, check that kid out.

Doug Williams & Brutus Magnus defeated Homicide

Homicide had to fight the British Invasion by himself, as Hernandez was taken out in the backstage area. Homicide started fighting this match with high spots, and a flurry of offense, trying to get the upper hand, he was going move for move, no resting in between, but that couldn’t and didn’t last too long. The British Invasion had a nasty tag team finisher, it was a spinning European uppercut off the top rope while someone was on their shoulders, it was like the Doomsday device reborn! I admit, I marked out huge for that. Homicide couldn’t beat two guys, and that was the end.

Awesome Kong defeated Madison Rayne in a stretcher match

Awesome Kong basically annihilated Madison Rayne. She put Madison on the stretcher several times but kept picking up Rayne again and slamming her to the mat. The fans kept yelling “One More Time” and she obliged! Awesome Kong has officially become a fan favorite! Madison was dead, this was a huge squash match, Awesome won.
The Motor City Machine Guns called out Christopher Daniels and told him that they knew that he was Suicide! That’s right, they claimed Daniels was Suicide! About time someone addressed this situation. Daniels fought off The Machine Guns, but that’s about it.

Abyss defeated Cody Deaner

This was your basic throwback to ECW, as this plunder match was just a hardcore match up. Deaner put up a good fight after spraying Alcohol into Abyss’s face. It wasn’t lasting long as Abyss hit the Black Hole Slam and it was all over. This match was short and it wasn’t very fun to watch. I like hardcore matches, but this was just a lot of dancing and random misfires.

Booker T & Kevin Nash defeated Aj Styles & Samoa Joe

I’m assuming Samoa Joe was suppose to be in this match, but Aj Styles started this match solo against the two former heavyweight champions. Mid Match Samoa Joe came down, and it was to no avail. Booker T and Kevin Nash won after Sharmell helped Booker T win this one. A championship belt shot to the head of Aj Styles and a three count later, the match was done.

Tna Impact 3/10/09 Review

I’m back, all the family has gone home and I’m back in action, writing crap.

The opening had the main event mafia out and they get Jeff Jarrett out there. For a guy that didn’t want to get into the fray, he sure is in the middle of all these storylines. The Motor City Machine guns came out and said they are for hire and have a vendetta against Foley. They get a match against Foley. It’s going to be lame. I can feel it.

Suicide defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir

Suicide did his thing here. I’m still not impressed by this random wrestling character. He has a few good moves, but overall, I don’t really think he’s worth the TNA’s time. No Limit was at ringside, fighting off Suicide whenever he was outside of the ring. Bashir was definitely a bit more proactive in this match as an x-division member, and really had some good fast paced moves, but Suicide seemed to not compliment the style very well. Kiyoshi hit Suicide with a huge kick, and Bashir hit a ddt on Suicide with the Belt underneath him! Suicide wins against Suicide.

We’re nearly over an hour into this program and barely have any wrestling. A lot of backstage stuff, Foley in ring rambling, stupid crap, no one likes this, I’m sure.

Samoa Joe defeated Booker T

What a terrible match. This was such a convoluted match, with little to no charisma between the two wrestlers involved. The highlight of this match was when Kurt Angle tried to interfere in the match and had AJ Styles come down and beat him up, allowing Samoa Joe to hit a powerslam and win! Yeah, that’s right, Booker T, loses to a simple Power Slam! This had to be the biggest powerslam in history, huh? It was lame.

James Storm defeated Scott Steiner via Disqualification

Scott Steiner fought James Storm in this match up. Usually confined to Beer Money as a member, Storm had his hands full with Scott Steiner in this match up. Steiner was in full control of this match up and it was apparent that Storm wasn’t meant to win this one, at least that’s how the match was going. Storm did mount a comeback, but it didn’t seem to rock the big man, the way he wanted to. Kevin Nash threw in a lead pipe and this match was thrown out.

Awesome Kong defeated Angelina Love

I usually rave about these matches but this Knockouts match wasn’t very good at all. This match was really short and Awesome Kong won with a reversal pin! This was a dumb match and afterwards, the Beautiful People tried to cut Awesome Kong’s hair.

The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Mick Foley in a First Blood Match

This was a dismantling of the young tag team. This was supposed to be an easy win for the Motor City Machine guns, and Foley made it a first blood match, creating an interesting little match up, but overall it wasn’t that good at all. Foley gave the Mandible Claw and afterwards his sock had a little blood on it, so the Ref was going to call the match up, but Foley intimidated him and continued to wrestle. Foley brought in a barbed wire bat into this match up, and was ready to strike but Foley was hit in the head with a Chair by Sting and was busted wide open, losing the match.

This TNA was terrible, and almost made me not want to watch TNA any more.

TNA Impact 12/25/08 Results and Review Christmas Edition

I can’t believe TNA Impact ran a show on Christmas. This might be the worst move that TNA has done in a long time, but whatever, here is a review and results for TNA’S Christmas Day show.

Chris Sabin defeated Kiyoshi

This match was ok at best, Sabin pulled out quite the victory over Kiyoshi, who reminds me a lot of the Great Muta. This match was not as good as the debut we saw last week, but Sabin held his own and won the match with the Cradleshock.

Post match Shane the ref was getting punked out by Sheik Abdul Bashir, only to prompt Suicide to come down into the ring and change things up.

Eric Young vs. Alex Shelley

It was an hour into the show when this second match started. This match began in the backstage area where Shelley was talking smack about Eric Young and the two ended up fighting into the ring, and I’m not sure what happened. I guess this wasn’t the match? It was just a brawl for no reason? That means that TNA only had one match in 1 hour! What a piece of crap wrestling show, this is the worst thing that could ever happen in regards to wrestling, what a piece of trash. This made me mad.

Booker T & Scott Steiner vs. Aj Styles & Brother Devon (no contest)

This match started at around 10:05 according to my clock and I was getting fed up with tna altogether. I wasn’t interested in this match up at all, but I always enjoy Aj Styles, so I gave it a chance. This match was dominated by the frontline, each one giving some tough shots to Steiner. Steiner however did have some excellent suplexes, but overall this match started out one sided and eventually evened out with the main event mafia taking over midway. After the commercial break the announce team informs us that this match is now a no contest because the four men have now spilled to outside the ring and into the crowd and parking lot! This broke out into a huge brawl back into the ring, and even prompted Mick Foley to come out and get physically involved! That’s right, Foley was in there and out came Socko! That’s right, Foley was out there beating the hell out of the main event mafia, insane indeed.

ODB, Roxxy, Christy Hemme, and Taylor Wilde defeated Raisha Saeed, Sojourner Bolt, Awesome Kong, and Rhaka Khan

The women of tna dressed in their most festive outfits fought each other in a tag team match up that featured all the women in the ring at the same time. This match really lost control fast and the ref had a hard time controlling the action, but it was alright, because the hard camera stayed in position and you saw the better parts of this match up. Eventually things spilled out to the outside of the ring and there was a great high spot from Taylor Wilde, creating an awesome reaction and great position for the knockouts to prove yet again that they are ten times better than the wwe divas! The match came down to Taylor Wilde scoring the pin for her team and once again proving that the TNA knockouts are 100 billion times better than anything that wwe is doing right now with their women’s division.

Kurt Angle vs. Rhino (No Contest)

This was a rematch from the ppv, which makes me want to never ever get another TNA ppv in my lifetime. Seriously, how many times are wrestling companies going to give us these matches free, after the fact? This is stupid. Anyways, this match up was standard to say the least. Angle really was lazy out there, focusing more on trying to antagonize Jeff Jarrett, whom was out at ringside, including spitting in his face! Kurt Angle was trying to draw as much heat as he could, meanwhile Rhino was chasing the former champ to try and get this match over with. If you’ve seen one Kurt Angle match you’ve seen them all, as this match really didn’t poise a lot of new combat for either wrestler involved. This match was interesting to me on many levels, but mostly because I had nothing better to do on my Christmas night, as I had to work in the morning and it doesn’t matter to me if I’m tired the next day. Kurt Angle got the ankle lock submission late in the match, in the middle of the ring, and things looked bad but Angle was sent to the floor right by Double J, and this caused Angle to slap Jeff Jarrett!

This match was thrown out as Jeff Jarrett interfered and attacked Kurt Angle. The backstage area cleared out and the two were separated. This was ok for all intents and purposes but I wasn’t truly convinced. BG James was sucker punched by Angle at the end, and it was all over. I’m tired.

Tna Impact 12/18/08 Review and Results Main Event Massacre

TNA Impact was once again mediocre, but it had some shining spots, especially with some new blood coming in from New Japan Pro Wrestling.

Rhino defeated Lance Rock

There was no possible way that Lance Rock was going to beat Rhino. Rhino basically took a few shots from Lance Rock then gored him for the easy win. I hate these jobber style matches, it just shows that the TNA writers are lazy.

Chris Sabin defeated Sonjay Dutt

Overall another ok match up. Sonjay was in a lot of control over this match up and Sabin looked really weak, however there was a Sabin comeback towards the end of this match which made the fans start to cheer a little and things were looking great for him. The match went back to Dutt’s favor as he countered a flurry of offense from Sabin, but Sabin managed to turn things around and deliver the Cradle Shock, to move forward in the x-division tournament.

Booker T & Scott Steiner defeated Abyss and Matt Morgan

I’m tired of seeing Morgan and Abyss together. These two idiots are terrible, and they are so slow in there. Tie in a very slow Scott Steiner and we have a boredom movement of epic proportions. This match up was ok at best, Morgan pulled most of the weight early on and Abyss came in to mix things up. The match of course went to plunder with Booker T running in with a lead pipe, knocking out Morgan and then getting the victory after a scissor’s kick. This is ridiculous, Abyss sucks, expect a Matt Morgan heel turn on Abyss sooner than later.

Kiyoshi defeated Consequences Creed

Kiyoshi put on a clinic, from New Japan, he came out and put Creed through the ringer, and really impressed me completely. He really reminded me of The Great Muta as he was pushing through some great moves out there, and with an impressive debut he defeated Creed and moved on in the x-division tournament.

Christy Hemme & ODB defeated Raisha Saeed & Raka Khan

Apparently this was some sort of street fight or something, I wasn’t paying attention. Christy Hemme got the pin with a one legged fire crotch guillotine, and it was over. It was a fast, jobber style match. No plunder was introduced and that was that. A boring knockouts match, I never thought I’d say that.

Samoa Joe & Aj Styles defeated Sting & Kevin Nash

A tag team steel cage match! This is awesome! These guys really put on a show, but it was too short, and it was lame. I wanted this match to last a lot longer and have more blood, but it was relatively slow and easy for the good guys.
The post match effort was good, but overall this match blew chunk. Can I say that? I guess.

Tna Final Resolution 2008 Revew and Results

I was really dreading this one, but since I’m going to be absent for the next couple of days, I’m going to be reviewing yet another TNA PPV, and here it is Final Resolution 2008.

Cute Kip, Sonjay Dutt, Some Dude From The Motor City Machine Guns, BG James, Jay Lethal, Consequences Creeds, Curry Man, Hernandez, Homicide, Shark Boy wrestled in a Fest or Fired match.

This match sucks. I hate the gimmick, I hate how people are just fighting each other for the briefcases. Last year, they had this and it was so lame and so convoluted, and made me hate wrestling in a lot of ways. My favorite part of the match was the Curry Man moves. It seemed like everyone got to hit their favorite spot, including LAX. Hernandez was launching people out of the ring like hot potatoes! It was kind of cool. There was just too much going on for my tastes. Curry Man gets case #3 and then dives onto the floor with NO ONE to catch him! Homicide got briefcase #1! Honestly, some of these mid carders are no no name wrestlers to me, I have no idea who some of them are. I know some of them…most of them? I don’t know. Some of these guys haven’t been on Impact in a while. Jay Lethal jumped in and took a briefcase, briefcase #2! The Motor City Machine Guns were left standing in the ring, without a case and they were upset that Jay Lethal jacked them for the case. This is the most convoluted match in the history of professional wrestling.

Curry Man pulled Case #3
Homicide pulled Case #4
Jay Lethal pulled case #2
Hernandez pulled case #1

One case was going to be opened tonight, and that case was number 2 so Jay Lethal opened his briefcase revealing: Jay Lethal will receive a tag team title shot! WTF? This is so stupid, so convoluted, I hate this match, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!

ODB, Roxxi, and Taylor Wilde defeated Sharmell and The Beautiful People

The knockouts were on point as usual. I could see a ppv dedicated to the woman’s championsip, as these girls really put it all out there. They are better wrestlers than lookers, that’s for sure, however the beautiful people do have that porno starlet quality to them. Whatever the case is, these chicks got it going on. They can wrestle really well, and I enjoyed this match, and if you’ve seen the impact matches featuring these women, you’ll have enjoyed this one. It’s longer than impact, and they really o a good job. I really liked Roxxi in this match up, she showed she can wrestle and be extreme and her tag team maneuvers with Taylor Wilde really proved to be a great and unique way to use them together. Sharmell wasn’t in there for a lot of the match, and you could tell she was scared as ODB was tagged in. Sharmell finally got tagged in and ODB was ready to kill her but Cute Kip interfered and ODB cased Sharmell straight to the back of the arena. Taylor Wilde picked up the win for her team with a cross body block off the top rope!

Eric Young defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir for the x-division championship

The X-Division title match was on the line in this one. First things first, he ref that screwed things up the last time is once again here, and this is lame. However, the two put on a half way decent match up. WWE could take notes on this, as the cruiserweights can really put on some good classic wrestling if they are given some time to wrestle. Bashir did put in a lot of rest holds, but overall, he made it look good with Eric Young putting in some great counter moves. Eric Young’s top rope elbow drop was amazing! Picture perfect, and nearly like the classic Macho Man elbow drops that I remembered as a kid. Lots of near falls followed with neither opponent getting an edge over the other. Eric Young wins this one and the x-division title!

Post match, Bashir attacked the ref and that prompted the ref to go nuts again. The ref got busted wide open and was wobbly during this one, and Bashir really beat the hell out of him! I can’t believe no one came to the rescue of the ref, who was really paying for any previous encounters he might have had with Bashir.

Christy Hemme defeated Awesome Kong via disqualification

This match has been boiling for a while, but I was under the impression that Hemme had a battle with the beautiful people? Maybe not; this match was for the knockouts title, it was definitely better than any divas match I’ve seen this year. Hemme was fearless in this match, jumping off the top rope onto kong, and really giving Kong a run for her money. Hemme had this sewn up for the win but Raesha Saeed pulled Hemme out of the ring during her pin attempt, then Rhaka Khan was out there trying to fight her, and Hemme basically was fighting three women to try and win this match up against Awesome Kong. Kong went nuts and threw the referee down, and then went on to beat th living crap out of Hemme, until TNA officials came running in and separated the two knockouts.

Beer Money Inc defeated Matt Morgan & Abyss

The tag team championship titles were on the line for this match up and things could get very good for Matt Morgan and Abyss, but I had my doubts going into this match up. Matt Morgan and Abyss were looking way too dominant for Beer Money and Beer Money was nearly walking out of the match up, and of course like in all ppv matches the stipulations changed and if they lost the match via count out they would lose the titles. So they were forced to come back. Beer Money turned things back around again, and they were looking like the champs as they systematically tried to dissect Matt Morgan working over his limbs with ease. That is until Morgan got his second wind, and Abyss got tagged in! He was cleaning house with every single big move he has in his arsenal. But the guys in beer money gave him a good match up. Abyss stole the beer bottle from Beer Money and was ready to strike, but was distracted long enough for one of the members of Beer Money to grab some brass knuckles and knock out abyss! Beer Money keeps their titles with one of the oldest tricks in the book! FINALLY a GOOD tag team! Beer Money is a perfect example of a good tag team in modern day professional wrestling.

Suicide made his in ring debut. Full mask and body covered. He beat up the motor city machine guns, and just annihilated both of them. I don’t know who Suicide is, but everyone I’ve spoken to have claimed that it is Christopher Daniels, I’m not sure who he is really…nor do I even care. It wasn’t a match, he just jumped in and beat people up.

Kurt Angle defeated Rhino
Mick Foley was the special guest enforcer

This to me was just delaying the inevitable meeting between Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett. You knew it was coming and it was just TNA’s way of getting Rhino involved with the ppv. Kurt Angle was once again beating his opponent out of the ring and made sure to get in a lot of spots. Meanwhile, Foley was trying to give tips to Rhino whenever Angle was out of the way. Angle was way too confident with his rear naked choke as he just seemed to be trying to choke out Rhino, but Rhino go back up and mounted a short lived comeback. Angle got the upper hand in this match up with the inevitable Ankle Lock and Foley was screaming for Rhino to dig deep, and somehow, by some miracle managed to not be a factor at all. Rhino did however put on another great comeback and set up for a huge gore, but walked into an angle slam instead. Angle looked frustrated, and foley was itching to get back into the ring one more time. The Ref got gored out of his boots which was a nice touch, and Angle had this match sewn up completely. He went out to ringside and grabbed a chair, meanwhile Foley was in the ring to try and stop him from hitting Rhino with a chair, meanwhile Foley took over the ref’s job and counted a quick two count! He then kicked out the ref and took the full fledged ref’s spot for a good portion of the match up. Rhino was looking to be winning this one, especially now that Foley was the ref. Al Snow was there! Al Snow showed up! That’s right, AL FREAKIN SNOW! Angle took advantage of Foley being distracted by Snow, and Foley counted a three count after Angle hit Rhino in the head with a chair!

Sting, Booker T, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner defeated Team 3-D, Samoa Joe, and Aj Styles

This was also convoluted. But easy to follow, meaning that the world title was on the line in this match; Sting’s team had to win to retain the belt for Sting, however if Styles’ team won, then Sting would lose the belt to Aj. Weird. Alright, this match was your basic tag team fair, nothing crazy, just everyone getting a shot to show what they had. These type of 8 man tag team matches rules the 1980’s wwf scene and I remember borrowing lots of “Best of WWF” tv compilation vhs tapes from my local video store, and that’s what this match reminded me of. It was an all around good match up, even though there were some spots that were a little long for my particular tastes. With so many fresh tags, no one looked to be so doing worse than the other, and overall this wasn’t half bad. I actually didn’t have a favorite going into this match up, but it was refreshing to see so many spots in such a match up. We saw some of the best moves from Team 3-D and even Nash got a few spots in this one. Dare I say, that Steiner looked good too! Overall not the worst match up in the world, even if it was a tag team match for the main event. This was almost as good as the main event of In Your House Canadian Stampede where The Hart Foundation went over big in the main event in a HUGE tag match. This thing turned into an all out brawl at the end, as it should, and things were really favoring the Main event mafia. Sting hit the scorpion death drop and pins joe for the win. The main event mafia win again!

Tna Impact 12/4/08 Review and Results All Hail The Governer

Here we go, our first Impact back from vacation, hopefully it got better, hopefully.

First thing I noticed was that the picture looked squashed somehow, it was odd. Like it was meant for hd but they reconverted it somehow, it’s really odd.

Booker T. defeated Samoa Joe in a street fight

I’m not sure why the TNA officials allowed this match to go on television. This match should have been given to the PPV audience not the free television audience. This match was a street fight, for the legend title and the aggressor was definitely Samoa Joe. Joe was working a little stiffer than Booker was used to, at least that is what it looked like to me. This match quickly spilled out into the crowd. The match continued back into the ring, and it looked like Samoa Joe was going to win this one, it was incredible. Joe had Booker T tapping out, but out came the Beautiful people and sprayed something in the eyes of Joe and Booker T picked up the win!

ODB’s Angle sucks. Trust me, it’s horrible.

Aj Styles & Christy Hemme defeated Scott Steiner & Awesome Kong

Steiner and Styles opened up this match and for once Steiner wasn’t half bad. Styles really had some major confidence in this match up and he was pushing the big man to wrestle a better match than usual, it was partially due to the fact that Aj can bump well and his timing is so good. Awesome Kong comes in and delivers a knife edge chop on styles but can’t fight back, and this gives Steiner a good leg up. However, this match up went to the women, and it was great. Aj and Christy really worked well together and they made this match good. It was too short, but Hemme got the pinfall leading up to the ppv this weekend. It was a quick finish right after the commercial break.

Consequences Creed, Eric Young, and Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir, Sonjay Dutt and one of the machine gun

This match was alright, Sheik refused to wrestle when the ref was in there. It was basically 3 on 2 with the good guys getting a better edge here. The match was fast and was working out quite well. It was definitely one sided, and fast. Consequences Creed got the pin, and afterwards Sheik attacked Eric Young.

Rhino defeated Sting (non title match)

Sting was crazy in this match up. He was pummeling Rhino for the most part, and Rhino was busted wide open. He was bleeding all over the place, it was ridiculous to say the least. Kurt Angle ran down towards the end of the match to try and give some words to Sting. Rhino was getting worked though, he was just getting worked man, this match was near ppv quality if it was a little longer. Sting had this oene seemingly sewn up but after some quick interference from Kurt Angle and Aj Styles fighting Angle on the outside Rhino hit the gore and defeated Sting clean!

TNA Impact 11/20/08 Results and Review Leadership…Divided

The Main Event Mafia opened up the show with a casket in the ring, and they made it seem that Christian is going back to WWE for sure. I’m not sure if this is real or fake, which is interesting on one note, however, it should be interesting that Christian returns to WWE. I can’t confirm that at all, but it would be nice to see it done.

Rhino comes out now and he starts talking about Christian. It was boring. I didn’t care, and apparently neither did Kevin Nash! Hilarious. Rhino claims to be a veteran? Weird. I’m tired of this storyline, seriously, didn’t the wwe and wcw do this already? Remember the ppv “New Blood” from wcw? Didn’t they do this? Oh well. I’m tired. They basically beat up Rhino, busting him wide open with the Veterans belt. You would think that the backstage area would come down to the ring, but no one really got there. They then shoved Rhino into a casket! That’s right, Rhino was placed into a casket! I kid you not. NO TNA Wrestlers came out to save Rhino, what a load of crap.

Consequences Creed & Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal defeated Sonjay Dutt w/ So cal Val & Tanahashi

A tag team x-division match? This seems too weird, personally, I thought that the Jay Lethal Sonjay Dutt finished their feud? Not only that, when was Tanahashi heel? Seriously, this match makes no sense. Despite this not making sense, the guys put on a show. The x-division is great, these guys throw together a great piece of tandem wrestling moves, with splashes, corkscrews, and quick tags. This is a perfect example of what cruiserweight wrestlers can do, if the promotion allows them to move forward. You gotta give these guys credit, they put on one heck of a match, even if it was shorter than I’d like it to be, and it was thrown together for no apparent reason. Consequences Creed got the pin, out of the blue, and this match up was a bit too short. It was over before I had a chance to even finish my sentence. Oh well, this match didn’t really matter a whole lot.

Cornette forces Eric Young to give up the x-division title to Sheik Abdul Bashir. This turn of events directly relates to the Y2J cruiserweight division victories of 1999. Remember? From January to July, Chris Jericho found every loophole in the book to keep his title after losing it.

The Beautiful People defeated Christy Hemme & Sojourner Bolt

We get a new comer to the TNA Knockouts division. She looks good out there, a little green, but overall looks like she can be a somewhat relevant addition to the knockouts division. She took major shot to the face early on, but she hung in there for her debut. The Beautiful People were focusing on the new girl Sojourner, and the crowd was behind the new girl, but she wasn’t really getting a good comeback. Christy Hemme got the hot tag, and cleaned house. She looked good for once, but she got hit with the knock out and loses to the beautiful people yet again! I was surprised at the way this one turned out.

ODB’s show finally showed up and this thing sucked. ODB can’t act, and this show sucked. I’m tired of this horrible filler. Seriously, stupid filler.

Aj Styles & Samoa Joe defeated The Motor City Machine Guns

This match got off to an exciting start. Within the first five minutes, all members were outside of the ring and flying through the ropes, over the ropes, and onto each other! This was awesome! These guys really threw up a good opening, until commercial break, which featured the new Punisher movie, which I will be seeing, since I’m a huge Marvel Knights fan. The match returns and this thing was vast paced and didn’t really have a lot of psychology to it. It was spot after spot after spot, which is somewhat ok, but seemed like a little too much. Styles hit he Pele and then landed the styles clash for the victory! It was a good match, great stuff here, even if it was a little shorter than I’d like to see. I still don’t like that established tag teams get beat every time. It’d be nice to see an established tag team win as a team, like the old days. Oh well.

Booker T defeated Eric Young

This is interesting on one level. It’s a fresh, new match up. I like this in that aspect, however, I don’t like the fact that we know that this match is going to favor Booker T. There is no way Eric Young is going to win the veteran’s belt, there’s just no way. This match wasn’t so bad, Young focused on grounding Booker T, and Booker looked genuinely frustrated as the x-division wrestler was working him over. However, Booker turned this match around and with a lot of slow moving methodology, took apart Eric Young and defeated him as expected. Booker T wins the match after hitting the ax kick.

Kurt Angle & Kevin Nash defeated Matt “The Blueprint” Morgan & Abyss

Once again, these guys get thrown together into another match up. I don’t like Matt Morgan, but I do give TNA credit with giving him a chance to shine out there in the ring. That’s something that WWE never really did, so TNA is actually doing something different, for a change. This match started with a stale mate between Abyss and Angle. Angle didn’t look so great against the monster Abyss. Matt Morgan got into the match and things were looking great until Angle clipped him and Kevin Nash go in and delivered one heck of a lariat. The match was all Angle and Nash for the most part. However, things turned around and it was left with Nash and Morgan in the ring fighting each other. Beer Money came down, but Abyss knocked them out, and threw Angle in the ring. Beer Money smashes Abyss with a Beer Bottle and Kevin Nash jumps Abyss for the pin! Kevin Nash and Kurt Angle defeated Matt Morgan and Abyss! Once again they lose.

That was it for TNA as far as wrestling is concerned. They end their show with Mick Foley out in the ring announcing the double main event for TNA ppv. This was stupid, why would they end a wrestling show with Foley in the ring talking? This is wrestling! Let’s see some wrestling, for a change! Come on, fire all the TNA writers! Seriously, this is how you end your wrestling show? Foley is ok on the mic, but I’d rather watch one more match up, then to see Foley out there talking up a storm. Foley announces two matches, Booker T, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner & Sting vs. Samoa Joe, and two unnamed opponents Aj styles but if the Main Event mafia loses, Aj Styles will be the Tna Champion! The other match up will be Kurt Angle vs. Rhino! This isn’t huge, I’m just going to tell you that right now.

The cool thing at the end of TNA was Foley getting punked out by Kurt Angle, prompting Jeff Jarrett to come out and defend him. Then Angle punked out Double J and Rhino jumped him!

TNA Turning Point 08 Results and Review

Here we go, my first TNA ppv in a LONG time! I was expecting a lot!

The intro to the ppv is just a recap of the last few weeks of TNA and mainly shows footage of the Main Event Mafia beating everyone up, mixed in with them talking about random crap. The show starts with JB in the back watching the arrival of the Main Event Mafia.

I’ve said this once and I’ll say it again, I hate the six sided ring. I wish that TNA would revert back to the 4 sided regular wrestling ring.

Eric Young defeated Consequences Creed, Sonjay “Guru” Dutt w/ So Cal Val, Big Petey Pump, Jimmy Rave, Volador, Doug Williams, Tanahashi, Homicide, and Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal

This huge match up was like a tag team match up with no one on any teams. They just featured all these guys waiting on the Apron and running in at random, and just wrestling. It was a weird gimmick, and it was just high spot fever. I liked the flow of this match, as it didn’t take much to watch this, and it was wildly popular with the fans who were into each major spot. So there’s no real psychology to this match up, it’s just random run ins and power moves to outside moves over the top rope, through the ropes and the likes. I liked it, and it was a good opening match, even if I didn’t really understand the point of jumbling all the x-division together. The winner gets a shot at the title and they reshuffle the ranks for the x-division. Doug Williams is an odd one in this match up, and reminded me of mid-90’s wwe tag team wrestling. I loved Volador in this match as he was not conforming to the TNA style but more over he was keeping his Lucha Libre style in tact and the TNA wrestlers were making adjustments to him, not the other way around. He was a highlight of this match up.

The weird thing about this match is that when someone would go for a pin, NO ONE would jump in to stop it. This didn’t make sense to me at all, and really took away from what could’ve been a really frenetic paced match up. Instead it just made me think that everyone knew the winner, and that my friends is NOT what I like about wrestling. I know they know, but they need to convince me that they don’t.

Volador was in this match for a good long time, and he put on a clinic of styles, he was amazing. This guy should be the x-division champion. He’s stellar, give that guy the belt, he is amazing! This match was elimination style, and the best elimination came from Doug Williams. He rolled up rave right into a release German suplex which was amazing! Kid’s got game, that’s for sure. The rest of the match was confusing to me, as people flying all over the place, and people looked legitimately hurt. Then there were a rapid fire amount of eliminations and after the dust settled it left Jay Lethal and Eric Young to determine the winner. These two really put on a show full of near falls and high risk maneuvers. Great back and forth action here and I was really into it for once in my life, and I couldn’t help but think about “Super Eric” but whatever, these two are great together. This match went through quite the moves and in the end Eric Young won the match up and becomes the number 1 contender to the x-division title. Overall a good match up, with a lot of great moments, and while I don’t usually like the TNA openers, this one was a good 20 minutes in length and really done well. Great opener for the ppv event, but I can’t help but wonder where the rest of the Prince Justice League is going within the ranks of TNA.

Roxxi & Taylor Wilde defeated Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed

A nice paced women’s match up here, with Wilde and Roxxi taking control early on, but that was short lived. I’m completely thrilled that there are still people out there that give women these types of roles, because they are so much more than just “Barbie” dolls. If you allow women to wrestle they can put on matches just as good as any man. This match proved it yet again. Forget the wwe divas, they suck, these women are dropping elbows, executing picture perfect suplex’s and so much more! This match wasn’t a technical classic, but it was good. I love the TNA knockouts, they are so good, the best women’s wrestling you’re going to see, I guarantee it! Even if there were some stupid misses and obvious mistakes, I still went along with it. This match was good, and even after Taylor Wilde scored the pin on Raisha Saeed with a bridged suplex pin, this thing had me cheering; the knockouts are great wrestlers in their own right.

Rhino defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir

This is a waste of time for me. Why would the X-Division champion not defend his title on a ppv? I know this is a grudge match, but I never got behind it and I think it’s a stupid thing to waste this match up. The champion should defend the title whenever he’s wrestling on pay per view, rather than just wrestling with some grudge angle that no one cares about! Bashir was actually doing well in this match up, and Rhino didn’t look as intimidating as he usually does. The ref of course is that one dude that has been fighting bashir in times past. Rhino looked to be on the verge of victory but Bashir turned things around but it wasn’t until he pushed the ref that Rhino got the victory! Rhino gored Bashir, pinned him and walked out. That’s it. NO major altercations, no major post match celebration, it was just over. Done with.

Beer Money Inc defeated The Motor City Machine Guns

There was no way the Machine Guns were going to win this one, that’s what I thought at the beginning of this match up. Those two just seem to never get over that well. This was definitely the turning point for The Machine Guns as they have been trying to prove themselves for several weeks. This was a good back and forth match with The Machine Guns looking very good against the veteran tag team, and the crowd was behind them this time around. The action was solid, and both teams really worked well, and pushed as much out of each other as possible. There were some spots that didn’t make sense at all, and I’m not sure if they were just messing up, or they legitimately were too tired to execute the move. This match broke out into a melee later in the match up, and the ref wasn’t letting it go back to one on one action at all. Then Jacqueline jumped in, and interfered only to get slammed to the mat, and of course here came Beer Money with their usual antics, including beer in the face, and finally the pinfall win over the Machine guns to once again successfully defend their titles. A good match a terrible ending, but great match overall. I just didn’t like that stupid ending, no one ever gets a clean pinfall in tna, when a belt is on the line.

Booker T. defeated Christian Cage

I don’t see the purpose of a legends title, maybe a television title, but a legends title? No thanks. I like Booker T and all, but come on, this is a stupid way to put himself over. These two are on the top of their games, and it was nice to see a well rounded wrestling match up for a change. I personally thought that Booker looked really strong in the early moments of this match up. He was reversing all the offense that Christian was trying and was making everything look really good, I couldn’t believe how much Booker managed to get in without Christian coming back. Booker was looking, for once, as the better man. Christian got some great offense in towards the end, but it was Booker with a great roll up who succeeded in winning this match with minimal interference, and retains his belt! Not only that, Christian must now join the main event mafia! That’s right, Booker T wins!

Kurt Angle defeated Abyss in a Falls Count Anywhere Match

Kurt Angle seemed out of his element in this match up. So much so that he was completely dominating Kurt Angle for the most part of this match up. That is until things spilled outside of the ring, as this was a falls count anywhere match up. This wasn’t initially going well for Angle, and Abyss was really putting the boots to Angle, even in the crowd! But of course the Olympic Gold Medalist would come back. Impressively too, as Kurt Angle launched himself off the top of the stage and delivered one heck of a move on Abyss. Full front flip off the stage onto Abyss, that was insane! Seriously, Angle made a HUGE impact with this one move, but it wasn’t’ enough to put away Abyss, and the big man once again got control. The match kept going until Kurt Angle dropped Abyss onto a table from a platform and it was all over. Yep, that’s it, nothing crazy, just a small table bump and that’s it. Kurt Angle wins. Lame.

Kevin Nash defeated Samoa Joe

This match wasn’t so bad, I thought it was going to suck bad. But instead, this match up was quite good, and Samoa Joe carried more than his weight in this match up. Kevin Nash opened up a turnbuckle and most likely was looking to use it against Joe, later in the match up. Nash was never a technical giant at wrestling, but he could throwdown every now and again and in this match he really complimented Joe’s onslaught of attack! I actually was getting into this one, and I was surprised. Joe got busted open, and that wasn’t necessary, but Nash kept ramming his head into the exposed turnbuckle side of the ring. Joe looked really messed up. Nash dropped Joe on the back of his head with the jackknife power bomb for a very close 2 count, and then Joe locked on an arm lock but after a ref bump, Nash rolled up Samoa Joe and used the ropes for leverage and won this one. That’s right, Kevin Nash defeated Samoa Joe! That’s right, the Main Event Mafia was on a winning roll!

Sting defeated AJ Styles

The main event match was definitely interesting since the rest of the Main Event Mafia was on a great roll and if Sting lost, it would sour the evening for sure. AJ was the aggressor in this match up and Sting looked winded early on. I wasn’t sure if AJ was going to win this one as Sting was taking his time on the outside and taking breaks early on. Sting took the action onto the outside and was slowing the pace down completely and that was a dumb movie because this match didn’t start until around 7:35 pm and they were short on time, from my vantage point. Sting really kept things slow with a series of wear down holds including the Abdominal stretch, head locks, and other moves right out of the early 90’s wrestling scene. Aj took advantage of the match pace with some great suplex’s and running combinations, and the crowd was back into this one, until he missed a spear and Sting once again took control! Sting looked to have this sewn up when he went to the top rope, but Aj moved out of the way and started to lay into Sting with reckless abandon! Aj looked ready to win this one when Booker T and Kurt Angle came in and Sting rolled up Aj for the quick win! That’s right, Sting won this match with a roll up! I kid you not, what a piece of crap finish…a roll up!

TNA Impact 11/6/08 Review and Results Hitman For The Mafia

The show opens with the Main Event Mafia and an introduction to Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner. He’s the “hitman” for the Mafia.

Booker T & Beer Money defeated Christian & The Motor City Machine Guns

Here we have a six man tag, and I’m not really sure why. I though only WWE perpetually gave us six man tag matches for no apparent reason, and I guess TNA is doing this now too. I know they’ve done it all along but this is the first time I realized it. This match wasn’t too bad, but the ending was kind of stupid to me, a little too much really. The Machine Gun were outside the ring fighting Beer Money while Christian seemed to have things sewn up against Booker T, only to get distracted and then get hit in the head with the TNA Legends belt, and that was that. Booker T pinned Chrisitan Cage.

Matt Morgan & Abyss defeated Tanahashi & Volador, Team 3-D, and Lax

A four way ladder match for a shot at the TNA title, and this was just a huge spot fest. This contest was done Texas Tornado style and each team was in the ring at the same time, as it should be. However, throughout this whole match you didn’t see more than 4 people in the ring at the same time. The best spot was definitely Hernandez jumping out of the ring and getting a face full of ladder as he was 10 feet short of a 12 foot jump. This match seemed to be going fast, but there was a lot of time in between spots spent just setting up the next spot. The whole ring was laid out, and I thought for sure this thing was going to favor Team 3-D somehow, but instead, Abyss climbed to the top of the ladder and pulled down the contract and now they get a shot at the TNA Tag Team Titles!

Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed defeated Taylor Wilde & Rhaka Khan

I wasn’t too sure about this match up, simply because we’ve already seen two tag team matches on the show, even if they were for different reasons. I’m tired of seeing tag matches, honestly, but this wasn’t so bad. Taylor Wilde was the one taking most of the punishment, as Awesome Kong was putting on a wrestling clinic with her, showing her power and prowess. Taylor Wilde was getting worked immediately, and this was most likely because Rhaka Khan can’t really wrestle all that well. Rhaka gets the tag, and she comes in only to chokeslam Taylor Wilde and allow Awesome Kong to deliver the implant buster and Taylor Wilde gets worked in this match up. This is how you do a turn and squash match! Awesome, Taylor Wilde is a true competitor as she takes one heck of a beating in this match up. This is how you do women’s wrestling!

Sting & Kurt Angle defeated Eric Young, Consequences Creed and Jay Lethal

This had squash all over it, seriously, there was no way that these guys were going over on Nash, Sting, and Kurt Angle. OH and thanks TNA ANOTHER six man tag match on the show? Another tag match? Please stop throwing tag matches at me. This was a really quick match and there was not a whole lot to it. I don’t know why I expected more out of TNA because they really screwed me over on this one. Kurt Angle delivered the Angle Slam for the victory as Sting and Nash took care of Lethal and Young on the outside of the ring. This was quick and easy, and a waste of time for anyone watching Tna Impact this week.

Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner defeated Samoa Joe

Finally, a singles match up on TNA Wrestling. Scott Steiner hasn’t been relevant for a long time, but here he’s not half bad. He seems to have lost a considerable amount of weight, and while he still looks large, he doesn’t look as huge as he was in his last WWE run or even his last moments in WCW. He’s still somewhat larger than he was in the early 90’s. Samoa Joe put some great moments in this match even if it was a television match up. I was impressed that Scott Steiner had no problem lifting Joe and throwing him around with some great suplexes, and I was beginning to turn my opinion a little in the early goings of this match up. Best part of this match up was when Joe was running the ropes he missed Scott Steiner only to jump out of the ring with a suicide dive into Kevin Nash who was standing outside of the ring! On returning into the ring though, Scott Steiner knocked him out with a pair of Brass Knuckles, and it was all over!

TNA Impact 10/30/08 The Making of the Mafia

I hate the tag lines. Th new TNA intro is exactly like the old RAW is War/Attitude era WWE intro, complete with rain, cages, and women. I hope this doesn’t suck.

The show starts with Aj Styles and Samoa Joe ranting about how no one helped them when they were beating up the Main Event Mafia. Joe is out there and he looked pissed too. It’s hilarious. These guys don’t need to open the show, we need more wrestling, less talk. The Motor City Machine Guns and the rest of the tna roster hits the ring to join the two, but the guns don’t really want to join the revolution of sorts. Samoa Joe slaps one member of the Machine Guns, and her comes the Main Event Mafia! They take turns on the mic and I’m bored, you should be bored too. The Main Event Mafia declares war tonight on Impact!

Christy Hemme & ODB defeated The Beautiful People

Not a horrible match, this had Hemme starting out and ODB coming in with quick tags, these two really have a good amount of talent and work together well. The Beautiful people are good at taking bumps, well about as good as I’ve seen from so called “model” wrestlers. Velvet Sky took advantage of a quick ref distraction and The Beautiful People took control of the match and things were looking bad for Hemme and ODB. The middle of this match was boring, and while The knockouts are usually good at wrestling, this time around they seemed a little out of it. The Beautiful People weren’t exactly all that good at all towards the end of this match and really showed that they need more in ring work. ODB looked great, and I’m always impressed by her athleticism if not by the stupid gimmick she has. ODB gets the win on this one, and it’s all over.

Eric Young defeated James Storm

Apparently the whole TNA war angle is NOT applicable to the tag team division. This match wasn’t all that bad, it was actually kind of cool. Eric Young defeated James Storm after a misfire distraction from his partner, and gets the win in a short match. There wasn’t a whole lot to mention in this one. It was quick, easy, and painless.

What happened to the Super Eric gimmick? I’m just saying.

The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Tanahashi & Volador

First and foremost, The Machine Guns need to get better intro music. They need something heavier than their treble heavy guitar hero style music. They need something from the band “Godsmack” like “I Stand Alone” or something like that. Trust me, I know these things.

This immediately broke into a high flying match with the foreign wrestlers making themselves look amazing, as both guys were doing the Japan/Lucha style to start the match up. The Machine Guns turned the table and they pulled off a win with The Cradle Shock and things were over fast. The start of this match was amazing, however, the turn in the middle and the ending was lame. This was too short of a match to warrant a lot of praises, so I’ll just say this one was watchable but not by much.

Samoa Joe & Aj Styles defeated Booker T & Kevin Nash

Kevin Nash is NOT in his prime and to see him out there trying to wrestle Aj is just lame to me. Styles did turn the tables around a little, however the show went to commercial break. When we return things were back in business with Booker T messing up Samoa Joe. Joe looked good returning some of the shots to Booker T, but Booker is just way too fast. He is just so good, Booker T is amazing here, and Joe looked winded at times, and then Kevin Nash came in and started to drop elbows onto Joe. The veterans looked great, even though Nash is older, he had some problems lifting Joe for the sidewalk slam, but other than that things were actually picking up a little. The end came when Booker T missed a scissors kick, then hit the Pele kick for the clean pin over Booker T.

Abyss defeated Kurt Angle via disqualification

This match started with Abyss really taking it to Kurt Angle. I liked that Angle wasn’t able to dominate this match at all. He was getting worked so much that he eventually left ringside and tried to leave through the crowd! After the commercial break, Kurt Angle attacked Abyss by hitting his legs and trying to make the big man go down. He was setting him up for the Ankle Lock submission. (Stolen from Ken Shamrock’s WWE Run) Abyss had a second wind but ran into a Blackhole Slam from Abyss and after the near fall, I had my doubts as to how this match was going to end. Angle hit the Olympic slam and that couldn’t get the big man down! Kurt Angle faked an injury, went outside grabbed a chair and leveled Abyss with it, and lost the match due to disqualification. He then went inside and locked on the Ankle Lock submission. Abyss kept trying to fight, but then Angle was trying to scrape Abyss’ back where he is supposedly burned on. Lame. Angle continues to beat up Abyss until Matt Morgan runs down and starts to level the former champ.

Didn’t Angle defeat Matt Morgan already? Yeah. This is lame to me. Out came the Main Event Mafia and started to beat down Matt Morgan, Morgan started to fight back but Kevin Nash came into the ring and knocked out Matt Morgan and Abyss with a steel chair! The fight member of the Main Event Mafia showed up as the TNA originals ran into the ring, and guess who he was?

BIG POPPA PUMP SCOTT STEINER comes back and joins the Main Event Mafia!

TNA Impact Results 10/30/08

Christy Hemme & ODB defeated The Beautiful People
The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Tanahashi & Volador
Samoa Joe & Aj Styles defeated Booker T & Kevin Nash
Abyss defeated Kurt Angle via disqualification

If you remember the old WCW days when the New World Order was mopping up every night, this is exactly like that. Basically the Veterans end up beating up everyone in the originals faction!
