WWE TNA Impact 9/23/10 Review
Ugh...TNA...I have a head cold right now, and I am really tired...so excuse me if the reviews are sucking lately. I know I'm late on all of them, but you gotta give me some credit...or don't...I mean, i've got no job no life, and well....this is all I do with my time...watch bad pro-wrestling shows.
Rob Terry defeated Abyss via DQ
I might be the only one that is glad to see Rob Terry back in the mix. Backstage, Rob Van Dam was being restrained. Whatever....as soon as they said that Abyss was fighting Terry...I knew this was going to be a squash. I hate ABYSS. I ABSOLUTELY HATE ABYSS.
The match was stupid, it sucked. Abyss threw a gate at Terry. RVD started coming down to ringside, and he was all bandaged up...Abyss got scared.
UGH...This is the worst storyline in wrestling today.
RVD got on the mic and started talking about the TNA title etc....whatever. He wanted a title shot when a champion was declared. Who cares! RVD will get a shot at Abyss at bound for glory....i'm NOT excited to see it.
The Pope came out and started ranting and what not...it was stupid. Bischoff punked out the Pope.
Chris Sabin defeated Jeremy Buck
Some will no doubt say this was a great match, but I say it was stupid. Sabin with a messed up neck defeated a healthy Jeremy Buck? I hated it. The match wasn't that great. Sure there were a few moments that were ok, but the post match beat down was way better than the match. It's nice to see a tag team get pushedin wrestling, it's rare.
Taylor Wilde & Hamada defeated The Beautiful People
This was stupid. Worst match ever? No. Bad match? Yep. I didn't like it, I thought it was stupid. I'd still hook up with Taylor Wilde, but as for wrestling? This is just stupid. TNA, in the past had a great deal of awesome talent and great women's wrestling, but now? Nope. Now it's stupid.
Samoa Joe defeated The Pope
Who kidnapped Samoa Joe? That's all I care about right now. This match wasn't that great, and the more I see Pope wrestle, the more I think he's not that great. He might be good on the mic, but he has little to no chemistry with some of the TNA guys. That's not a good thing for a guy that TNA is putting so much trust into. That being said, this match wasn't that great, and I found it kind of boring. Samoa Joe choked out the Pope.
Immediately after the match, sting, Nash, Joe and Jarrett had a brawl for no apparent reason. I hate it. I'm absolutely sick of the four.
Backstage, Tommy Dreamer was interviewed, he said that at Bound for Glory EV2.0 will face Fortune in a Lethal Lockdown match up. I'm sick of it.
Anderson and Angle were in ring talking to each other...no one cared.
Aj Styles defeated Sabu in a ladder match
Aj Styles won this match with relative ease. Sabu is a shell of his former self. Seriously, he can't take the bumps required to make this match a really good one. I felt bad watching an old man like Sabu try to win this match. Styles didn't even help, he didn't exactly take a lot of great bumps, it was stupid. Pure stupidity.
Abyss cut a promo, beat up Jeff Hardy, beat up RVd, and then was beat up by Ink Inc. Yep. That's it.
TNA this week once again was the worst excuse for a pro-wrestling show. I am sick of Abyss, he sucks, and I'm sick of bad wrestling, bad story lines, and dare I say bad commentary. There's absolutely no reason for anyone to watch tna anymore..it's beyond stupid.

TNA Impact 8/5/10 Results
Taylor Wilde & Hamada defeated The Beautiful People
AJ Styles defeated Rob Terry
The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Beer Money in an Destination X match
The Pope defeated Orlando Jordan
Ric Flair defeated Jay Lethal
Abyss & Raven vs Tommy Dreamer & RVD
TNA Impact 8/5/10 Review
Ugh...TNA started with a recap of last week and I was already tired of TNA. I've been doing a LOT of terrible wrestling and somehow, I have to deal with it all the time..nevermind, I was going to rant, but eh, no one cares.
The show opened up with the recap than went into Tommy Dreamer calling out Raven. He asked Raven why he beat up Dreamer.
The whole storyline is that Tommy Dreamer stole Raven's Girlfriend and that's it. He went on about how he was going to screw Dreamer's wife, and the two brawled on top of the stage while Abyss and RVD came out and wrestled. Foley came out with a barbed wire bat to the stomach.
Foley said that he was going to be the special guest referee for the night.
Is it just me or is Taz just phoning it in? He looked like he wasn't even trying tonight, and of course, he sucks.
I'm tired of this stuff...FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
Taylor Wilde & Hamada defeated The Beautiful People
I like Taylor Wilde, I think she'd be cool to hang out with and...uh...nevermind. Hamada can wrestle, so I was hoping for big things from this match for once. Lacey Von Erich is the WORST of the knockouts. No one could carry her, and Hamada was having a hard time wrestling a terribly rookie. Velvet Sky is my least favorite of the Beautiful People. The motorcycle woman came down and helped the beautiful people by giving lacey von erich a steel chair, but it was Taylor Wilde that kicked the chair into Von Erich and that was that. New champions!
AJ Styles defeated Rob Terry
The television title was defended here, and Styles was hitting hard, but not as hard as Terry. I like Terry, he's a nice counter what is now the standard "wrestling body" and a nice throwback to the 80's. Terry was throwing Aj Styles around like a rag doll, and it was good. After some cheating tactics the former World Champion hit the 450 Splash and won the match. Where is Orlando Jordan? I thought he was feuding with Rob Terry? Oh well.
The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Beer Money in an Destination X match
I didn't like this match. Yes, they put on quite a show, but come on! It's cookie cutter and you KNEW who was going to win. I'm sick of seeing this stupid crap. I'm tired of watching high spots and no psychology, and while I like both teams, I don't want to see them wrestle each week. At least not each other. I need something NEW! PLEASE!
Bischoff and Hogan came out and ran down the card for next week, which was boring. Out came Kevin Nash and beat up Hogan. That prompted Jeff Jarrett to come out and beat up Kevin Nash. That prompted STING to come out in Red Makeup and he used the bat on Jarrett. Sting hit Hogan in the head with a chair. Jarrett was knocked out. The announcers kept talking about how the Wolfpack is back, NWO WOLFPACK...I don't care...I'm sick of these storylines.
The Pope defeated Orlando Jordan
Orlando Jordan finally is getting a shot at wrestling, instead of just freaking everyone out. The Pope was fighting well, while Orlando Jordan was doing his normal weirdo wrestling moves. The Pope eventually got the upper hand thanks to Erik Young. Erik Young ran down to the ramp and started picking up all the money that dropped from the ceiling. The Dinero Express was hit and that was that, the Pope wins.
This makes no dang sense to me. Pope is a franchise TNA player and they could make him into a major ratings draw, but nope. Matt Morgan sneak attacked him and that prompted Anderson to run down to the ring with a chair, and that was that. I'm tired of TNA and their dumb writing, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
Ric Flair defeated Jay Lethal
This was embarrassing. I can't believe that Lethal would for this. This is a spectacle. Flair and Lethal fought in a street fight. I kid you not. Lethal in Jeans and Flair in his suit gets completely dismembered. This was sad. Flair wrestled Lethal in his underwear at one point! YES! In his underwear! Flair was busted open and was bleeding like a stuck pig. Flair, with one shoe, one sock and his underwear was fighting what appeared to be a much smarter Lethal. Thanks to Douglas Williams knocking out Lethal, Flair wins, bleeding all over the ring all over Lethal, and wow...This is sad, but you know what? The 12 year old in me was marking out like crazy.
Raven & Abyss vs Rob Van Dam & Tommy Dreamer (no contest?)
This match was terrible. Dreamer can barely work with his bum knee. RVD was ok, and Abyss was ok. Raven was a non issue. The end of this match featured 1/2 of the old ECW roster come into the ring and start beating up Abyss. The Gore got stopped, and out came 3-D! They were ready to hit 3-D but out came Raven with a chair and stopped it all. I used to love Raven, but he just looks fat now. Bring back the normal hair and lose some weight!
The lights went out completely and in the ring was The SANDMAN! AKA HAK! SANDMAN went to town with the Kendo stick! Sandman hasn't aged a bit! SANDMAN IS IN TNA!!! BUT WHO CARES? FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS! FIRE ALL THE WHATEVER FIRE EVERYONE! SOMEONE PLEASE STOP THIS STUPIDITY!
The show ended with everyone in ring celebrating...I'm so sick of TNA right now...I'll have a Hardcore Justice review coming Monday...So tired.

TNA Impact 1/28/10 Results and Review Screwed
TNA Impact 1/28/10 Results
Desmond Wolfe defeated Sean Morley
Hernandez defeated Christopher Daniels
The Beautiful People defeated Awesome Kong, Hamada, and Tara
Brian Kendrick & The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Generation Me & Amazing Red
Doug Williams defeated Amazing Red in a X-Division title match
Mr. Anderson defeated Jeff Jarrett
TNA Impact 1/28/10 Review
Immediately Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff were introduced, and they arrived to somewhat cheers. They call out Mick Foley, and Foley wants his job back. This segment sucked and went nowhere.
Backstage Mr. Anderson took away Hemme’s mic and issued an open challenge to anyone in the TNA locker room for a match, since he wasn’t book tonight.
Desmond Wolfe defeated Sean Morley
What in the world? Val Venis is back? I heard about it, but I didn’t see his in ring return, and from what I can see, he’s not looking too out of shape. This match didn’t have me upset at all, I actually liked how it was going, and when the Tower of London happened, I actually cared about Desmond Wolfe’s second coming. Overall not a bad match, in the qualifier to a tournament on ppv; I didn’t mind it, and it was a good opening match up.
Mr. Anderson’s opponent for later will be Jeff Jarrett, not bad.
Hernandez defeated Christopher Daniels
This too was a better match than in previous months. Daniels really matched Hernandez at times, but with his speed, while Hernandez tried to use his strength as an advantage. After a while Daniels grew frustrated that he couldn’t put super mex away and that made Hernandez the winner when he capitalized against the former Fallen Angel to advance to that tournament they kept talking about.
The Nasty Boys and Team 3d had a “face to face” of sorts. It was boring. They will face each other at the ppv.
The Beautiful people were interviewed backstage…that’s about it.
Eric Bischoff fired Bobby Lashley, and was escorted out of the arena.
The Beautiful People defeated Awesome Kong, Hamada, and Tara
The knockouts division is hit or miss when it comes to in ring ability. There should be enough talent in ring to get this match going, and it was definitely better than anything the divas have done lately. Tara still has some good moves, and it’s mind boggling to me why WWE didn’t capitalize on her talent. Madison Rayne and the rest of the Beautiful People have some moves too, but it seems that their ring attire gets in the way of their wrestling more time than not. Hamada and her team had this match completely won, but Madison Rayne got the win after using the ugly stick on Hamada.
I didn’t mind this match, I like foreign objects in endings sometimes. Overall a better offering than recent months, that’s for sure.
Backstage Earl Hebner got suspended after admitting he got a pay off from Flair to ring the bell early. Whatever.
Angle and Hogan buried the hatchet of sorts, and then Angle was immediately attacked by Hall & Waltman.
Brian Kendrick & The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Generation Me & Amazing Red
Finally, The Young Bucks are in a major company. I remember seeing the Young Bucks wrestle in Culver City, California in my home town! They finally made it! I’m glad. This match immediately started with Kendrick and Red going fast paced and Kendrick getting worked over fast. This match was very fast pace, and it was interesting. People talk about spot to spot and what not, but I personally thought it was more than that. Kendrick got the win over Red, and this match was interesting to say the least.
Big Rob gave Doug Williams the feast or fired briefcase and cashed it in.
Doug Williams defeated Amazing Red in a X-Division title match
Doug Williams cashed in the briefcase, and he’s now the new champion. This made a lot of sense.
Mr. Anderson defeated Jeff Jarrett
Jarrett came out to no music, and just came down and started from point #1 at the bottom of the barrel. Anderson and Double J started with some good overall old school wrestling. This match should’ve been a lot longer. Jarrett seemed to be getting things rolling in his direction, but he lost after a low blow from Anderson.
Final Thought:
This night of TNA didn’t suck as bad as the previous weeks. There was some filler, but overall, the wrestling was a lot more thought out and entertaining to me. If TNA can continue moving forward like this, they might be able to pull in new fans.

Tna Impact 1/4/10 Results and Review Hogan Shows Up and More
TNA Impact was a huge talked about show. Hogan and his idiots showed up and a lot of things were to be shaken up. There was a lot of talk about this show, and how it ran up against raw, like Nitro used to. Did it deliver?
Maybe.

Tna Impact 1/4/10 Review
“Time for a change” is the title card we get, like this was an old television show, and that right off the bat sucks, I hate that. The main song “rap core” style is still there, and we go straight to the event! The ring wasn’t shown right away, but everyone was talking about whether or not the ring would change shape, and well?
Bubba The Love Sponge got a job, he’s the new broadcast helper, and the show immediately turned straight to pre-taped segments from earlier of fans dogging WWE. Bubba The Love Sponge talking to all sorts of idiots, and it’s seriously terrible. These fans aren’t smarks that’s for sure, but who cares right? I don’t.
The ring is NOT four sides, it’s still six sides.
Motor City Machine Guns, Homicide, Kiyoshi, Black Machismo, Consequences Creed, Suicide, and Amazing Red fought in a steel asylum match, to a no contest
The rules of a Steel Asylum match really aren’t crazy. You can only win by leaving the six sided, red colored cage. There’s an opening at the top, and well, it isn’t one of Tna’s strong suit.
The action in this match was hard to follow, as Tazz said. The camera angles kept changing on me, and it was hard to see who was hitting who and what spot was getting hit next, but I did notice something major. For this match to go on, and for the wrestlers to get in some action, 6 of the competitors had to just lay down and do nothing or simply wait in the corner and watch. That allowed for two wrestlers to fight in the center, which makes for a somewhat boring match. It’s supposed to be a free for all, yet it has no major likeness to a traditional free for all, if that makes sense. It’s almost like the Royal Rumble, when it gets towards the end, where people take their time and get out of the way to let the center take stage.
That’s not to say there weren’t some cool spots, especially off the cage, but this thing wasn’t always action packed. Homicide had a police baton and struck his own partner and others. The bell started to ring, and this is why TNA sucks.
Inside of a STEEL CAGE, Homicide got disqualified. That’s right, disqualified inside a six sided cage with a top on it! The fans were chanting “This is Bull Shit” and it’s true, TNA shoots itself in the foot on their “epic” show, and the fans were letting him know, and it was getting bleeped out.
Post match Homicide had a hard time getting out of the cage, and to cover the rest of the guys in the match started to climb the ring and he had to get back down. As they all started to fight Homicide, someone’s music hit and guess who came out? JEFF HARDY! Jeff Hardy came through the crowd, over the rails, and was immediately attacked by Homicide. I KID YOU NOT! Homicide and Jeff Hardy, and Jeff hits Homicide with an unprotected CHAIR SHOT! JEFF HARDY comes back to TNA and this definitely is a shocker because rumors had it that Jeff and Punk were headed for a match at Wrestlemania, but apparently Hardy is back on TNA! How weird is that? Anyways, Jeff Hardy is in TNA, Homicide got knocked the hell out, and TNA tries to swerve the internet, but to no avail.
Shannon Moore was also shown on television backstage greeting Hardy after his major debut in TNA. So apparently they are both in TNA now? Whatever. Hogan was not at the show from the beginning, the camera’s cut to a limo and claimed that it was Hulk Hogan coming to the impact zone, and he had two police motorcycle cruisers.
Christy Hemme interviewed Kevin Nash backstage and it her forehead was gleaming like usual along side her face, and skin tight body suit. Wow, how can Big Sexy resist? He wasn’t in “Nash mode” he was just randomly rambling about how great Hulk Hogan was and how great it is to have him in the show. He then talked about how Hogan is going to be making him a lot more money, so he was excited…though not showing much emotion.
ODB defeated TARA in a TNA Knockout’s Championship match
This match started out like it would be an instant classic, with Tara using her martial arts background to get some hits in on ODB and I was interested to see how far this match would go in regards to women’s wrestling. However, it wasn’t that good as within a few minutes this match was over with ODB rolling up Tara and holding the tights to get a win. I can not stress the fact enough, this match was really short. The knockouts are turning into the divas before our eyes. TNA is really making a mistake with this division, if they continue to allow short lived matches like this to progress, especially since they have more talent than the divas…or had more talent.
Post match, ODB got hit with the Widow’s Peak and Tara put her Tarantula on ODB and then we cut to the backstage area.
Backstage out of a limousine, came none other than NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR! No, not a cut out, but seriously, RIC FLAIR on camera!
The show comes back to footage of earlier, and it’s Mick Foley getting barred from the Impact zone. Hemme was out there in a skin tight suit…in broad day light. He was not allowed interest into the Impact Zone, and that was it.
Bobby Lashley came out with his wife, and it was weird. His wife cut a huge heel promo, and started to pull the “Vickie Guerrero” card. The crowd immediately turned, and was booing the crap out of Lashley and his wife. She said that he wants his release from TNA and that this was the last time we will see Lashley in TNA.
Backstage, The Beautiful People were in some closet somewhere playing poker. They then started to attempt at the most unsexy strip poker bit, and it was boring…then we finally get thrown a bone, no pun intended, we cut to commercial. Wow, the Beautiful people sucked (once again no pun intended) the life out of me and what little interest I had in the show up to this point.
Backstage, Waltman and Scott Hall were trying to get in. Security wasn’t letting them in so they started fighting the security guards and it was broken up. Looks like the Outsiders can’t come in easily.
After another series of commercial breaks, out came Waltman and Scott Hall. Then we get another set of commercials! I definitely was annoyed at the amount of commercials they cut into this lame show.
Then we get back to TNA Impact and it’s Hall and Waltman again in the crowd, then we get another set of commercials! It was definitely the most annoying thing in a long time.
After the set of commercials, and one hour into the show only 2 matches in, out came Hulk Hogan! This is what they wanted, and the crowd? It wasn’t anti-hogan but it wasn’t roaring, that’s for sure. It still was a good pop, but nothing like I’ve heard in my youth while cheering him on from the rafters. The Hogan change shirt looked cool though.
Hogan got on the mic and started to talk about how TNA is going to be #1. Mid way through his speech out came Hall and Waltman and security tried to stop them. But Hogan let them through, and they did the N.W.O signal and got mics. “HEY YO” got a nice pop, and I marked out huge…for a second. Hall seems to be ok with keeping his accent like Razor Ramon. Hall and Waltman wanted to party and get big paychecks, and this whole segment just seemed so forced. I didn’t really like it, but eh, what are you gonna do? Remember the last time “The Kings of Wrestling” came out? It was terrible. This time was headed down that road, and I wasn’t sure if they were going to recover, then some random music hit, and guess who it was?
Kevin Nash came down to ringside, and he was not looking too excited. This show was starting to resemble the South Park parody episode of wrestling, and seriously, I was having a hard time getting into it. I kept thinking about how WCW died with these four in control, and WWE threw them out. Hogan kept trying to saying, “we need to change things for the better” and stuff like, “we can’t be like we were once, we need to grow up”, which got some crowd response, but eh, so what. Some more random music hit…oh man…
Out came Eric Bischoff, and the crowd went nuts. I’m so tired of this show already! Bischoff was in the ring with a mic on Hogan’s side and they started talking about how old times changed wrestling forever and what not. Nash, Waltman, and Hall left the ring after Bischoff said that everyone had to earn their place in TNA and that was that, I guess. The live crowd ate it up, but not me. They kept saying that it was time for a Change but nothing was changing, and then we revisit the old storyline with Sting in the rafters and the announcers going nuts about how he’s been missing for months. I didn’t like the angle in WCW that much, except for when Sting would show up and mop up, leading up to Starrcade 97’ and the no-end finish with Hogan and Piper and everyone involved. Wait, that might have been, no it was 1997 Starrcade.
Awesome Kong & Hamada defeated Taylor Wilde & Sarita in a tna knockouts tag team championship match
This match started slow, but picked up into a good opening with Sarita and Wilde trying to do serious double team maneuvers, but Kong was too much for the two of them, at least initially. Backstage the Motor City Machine Guns were knocked out, and the announcers went wild for that, taking us out of the match for a moment. The match continued and there was a double Suicide Dive by Sarita and a huge cross body block by Taylor Wilde onto their opponents outside, and I was definitely impressed as usual by the knockouts. However, we go to yet another commercial break, right when the action was getting really good. After the break, Awesome Kong was in full control, and it was obvious that the tag champs were going to have a hard time with Kong, but Sarita hit a nice springboard second rope dropkick and Kong showed signs that she was indeed human in a nice bump, I couldn’t believe how fluid Kong was in this match up, and that bump proved it greatly for me. Hamada knocked out Taylor Wilde on the outside, and Kong lifted up Sarita into the Awesome Bomb position, as Hamada hit her with a huge Missile Dropkick! What’s this? A TAG TEAM FINISHER? YES YES YES! I marked out huge for this match, as it really made me a fan of wrestling again. These women get match of the night up to this point, wow…finally some legit wrestling on the show!
We cut backstage to Val Venis! That’s right, Val Venis joins the Beautiful People in a game of strip poker. So Val Venis is in TNA now? Wow.
Guess who else showed up? It’s Mick Foley and none other than The Nasty Boys! Yes, THE NASTY BOYS, BOTH OF THEM! Sags and Knobs, the Nasty Boys were both backstage and trying to get in. They didn’t get in, and were thrown out.
Now for the rewind to 1995 here was Raven & Doctor Stevie. They would face Matt Morgan and Hernandez, and the only thing I personally liked was Daffney, she’s my type….the kind that I have no chance with…ziiiing!
Hernandez & Matt Morgan defeated Doctor Stevie & Raven
This match was a non issue, it was possibly one of the shortest matches I’ve seen in a long time. The match had Richards getting a Carbon Blueprint and pinned. That’s it. Seriously, that’s it. What a stupid waste of time.
Backstage The Pope was with Hemme and a random interview. I don’t hate it, but I don’t necessarily like it, especially after the terrible match that just happened. Orlando Jordan showed up, I think…maybe? I’m not 100% sure if it was him or not, but it was interesting. Elijah Burke has some competition now, in an interesting segment that went from the bottom to the top, I started to get interested, then we cut to the ring, and it fell apart again.
D’Angelo Dinero defeated Desmond Wolfe
It started raining money, well, fake stuff like the old JBL bucks. I wish I had some of those, that’s for sure. (The Jbl Bucks) This match started with what are usually called rest holds. Dinero was in rough shape against Wolfe early on, but Dinero got some interesting offense in before this match got too one sided. Wolfe went for the Tower of London but got reversed into an escape and Dinero then confused Wolfe into a small package, and this match was over. This wasn’t a great match, but Dinero had some quick counters, which made it a little more interesting than I’ve would’ve thought possible from these two. I’m still not convinced that Desmond Wolfe is worth his position in TNA as I’ve yet to see him do anything major in ring. Sure he can attack backstage and what not, but in ring? I’m not convinced.
Rhino backstage was laid out too.
Jeff Jarrett was backstage too.
Aj Styles was doing an interview, and Eric Bischoff interrupted and made Aj Styles vs Kurt Angle for the main event, for the world title, which was supposed to be the Genesis main event, but we’ll see what happens.
Jeff Jarrett came down to ringside, mic in hand, and you know we were going to hear from him…again. He basically was bragging about how TNA has come a long way and that they are going to the number one spot. They keep telling me that there was going to be change, but I have yet to see it. This show is boring me now, I’m tired of hearing about change and seeing nothing, just like Obama.
Hulk Hogan interrupted Jarrett. The crowd was chanting Bullshit for the second time tonight, and it’s interesting. Hogan started to talk about how the young guys were going to get the push now, and that Jarrett sucks. Hogan’s act is already tired, I’m tired, I couldn’t wait to see what Raw had for tonight because this sucks now. I’m sick of hearing Hogan’s voice and his random “change” speeches that keep popping up throughout this show.
Daniels was having an interview and JB rushed in and got in the way, the interview ended and Mick Foley busted in and JB let him…kind of.
Shannon Moore and Jeff Hardy were backstage painting a picture…I kid you not, and they had a “meeting” with the big man, whatever that means.
Samoa Joe defeated Abyss
Joe started this match street-fight style, with a lot of punches and kicks, and this match slowly escalated into a more wrestling-oriented match up. Abyss couldn’t get his bearings up front, and Joe was relentless in his high impact offense. Eventually Abyss started to get more offense in, with a strongside slam, big splashes into the corner and charges, dropping Joe several times. Abyss hit a nice chokeslam, catching Joe off the top rope, and things weren’t looking good for the submission master Joe. Abyss took a sick head shot with a chair, and afterwards got hit with Joe’s finisher, he kept reaching for the ropes and it looked like he was going to make it, but he tapped out. Overall this match was definitely a physical one, but it didn’t top that women’s tag title’s match up, which was way more solid by comparison.
Bischoff backstage had to deal with Lashley’s wife. It was a stupid segment.
Bubba the Love Sponge was backstage and Beer Money was laid out cold.
The Nasty Boys finally got into the arena, with help from Bubba.
Backstage Jeff Hardy kissed some tweens and gave them a painting. Then himself and Shannon Moore left in a Lamborghini, each had envelopes…and that was that.
The Nasty Boys tore up the Dudley’s dressing room, and spray painted the walls with “Nasty”. This was definitely interesting, but aren’t the Nasty Boys really old? I thought so.
Aj Styles defeated Kurt Angle in a TNA World Heavyweight Title Match
This match started fast and it seemed somewhat old to me. I felt like I’ve already seen this match many times. A masked man came in and knocked out AJ and the Ref, Kurt started to fight him and he fell outside the ring. I heard the Masked man is Tyson Tomko. The match restarted and the two started to fight each other. FYI the masked man angle has been done many times before. Remember Sting and the Black Scorpion? Remember DDP in WWE? Yeah, it’s a tired gimmick.
I gotta give TNA credit this match wasn’t rushed, it wasn’t short, and it had a lot of wrestling for a free television match up for the title. Angle looked hurt towards the end of this match up, Styles was having a hard time putting the Olympic Gold Medalist away. Styles hit the Styles Clash, and after a near fall Angle was set up for another one but Angle reversed it into an Ankle Lock. It was a no go, and Ric Flair came out to the ramp to watch this match first hand. Styles hit the sweetest 450 splash I’ve seen in a LONG time! The match continued with some great counters by both men, and a lot of near falls. I’m not into the big near falls, as I think it kind of ruins finishers for people, but whatever. Styles hit a nice springboard splash and Angle was done, Styles retains the title in what would’ve been match of the night for me, if the Knockouts didn’t floor me with their tag title match earlier on.
After the match Hogan came out to talk on the mic but was interrupted, and backstage was Mick Foley looking for Hogan. Hogan ran away from the ramp to head backstage. Foley ran into Bischoff and was basically fired, well, almost. The outsiders beat up Mick Foley backstage. Hogan was left standing there looking like an idiot.
TNA’s January 4 impact wasn’t that great. It had two major matches that I liked, a lot of and I do mean a lot of filler. Lots of talk of change, with no major change. I liked the show, but it wasn’t worth all that hype I had to sift through the last couple of weeks. We’ll see if TNA does in fact change things up ahead, if not, then oh well.
Maybe.

Tna Impact 1/4/10 Review
“Time for a change” is the title card we get, like this was an old television show, and that right off the bat sucks, I hate that. The main song “rap core” style is still there, and we go straight to the event! The ring wasn’t shown right away, but everyone was talking about whether or not the ring would change shape, and well?
Bubba The Love Sponge got a job, he’s the new broadcast helper, and the show immediately turned straight to pre-taped segments from earlier of fans dogging WWE. Bubba The Love Sponge talking to all sorts of idiots, and it’s seriously terrible. These fans aren’t smarks that’s for sure, but who cares right? I don’t.
The ring is NOT four sides, it’s still six sides.
Motor City Machine Guns, Homicide, Kiyoshi, Black Machismo, Consequences Creed, Suicide, and Amazing Red fought in a steel asylum match, to a no contest
The rules of a Steel Asylum match really aren’t crazy. You can only win by leaving the six sided, red colored cage. There’s an opening at the top, and well, it isn’t one of Tna’s strong suit.
The action in this match was hard to follow, as Tazz said. The camera angles kept changing on me, and it was hard to see who was hitting who and what spot was getting hit next, but I did notice something major. For this match to go on, and for the wrestlers to get in some action, 6 of the competitors had to just lay down and do nothing or simply wait in the corner and watch. That allowed for two wrestlers to fight in the center, which makes for a somewhat boring match. It’s supposed to be a free for all, yet it has no major likeness to a traditional free for all, if that makes sense. It’s almost like the Royal Rumble, when it gets towards the end, where people take their time and get out of the way to let the center take stage.
That’s not to say there weren’t some cool spots, especially off the cage, but this thing wasn’t always action packed. Homicide had a police baton and struck his own partner and others. The bell started to ring, and this is why TNA sucks.
Inside of a STEEL CAGE, Homicide got disqualified. That’s right, disqualified inside a six sided cage with a top on it! The fans were chanting “This is Bull Shit” and it’s true, TNA shoots itself in the foot on their “epic” show, and the fans were letting him know, and it was getting bleeped out.
Post match Homicide had a hard time getting out of the cage, and to cover the rest of the guys in the match started to climb the ring and he had to get back down. As they all started to fight Homicide, someone’s music hit and guess who came out? JEFF HARDY! Jeff Hardy came through the crowd, over the rails, and was immediately attacked by Homicide. I KID YOU NOT! Homicide and Jeff Hardy, and Jeff hits Homicide with an unprotected CHAIR SHOT! JEFF HARDY comes back to TNA and this definitely is a shocker because rumors had it that Jeff and Punk were headed for a match at Wrestlemania, but apparently Hardy is back on TNA! How weird is that? Anyways, Jeff Hardy is in TNA, Homicide got knocked the hell out, and TNA tries to swerve the internet, but to no avail.
Shannon Moore was also shown on television backstage greeting Hardy after his major debut in TNA. So apparently they are both in TNA now? Whatever. Hogan was not at the show from the beginning, the camera’s cut to a limo and claimed that it was Hulk Hogan coming to the impact zone, and he had two police motorcycle cruisers.
Christy Hemme interviewed Kevin Nash backstage and it her forehead was gleaming like usual along side her face, and skin tight body suit. Wow, how can Big Sexy resist? He wasn’t in “Nash mode” he was just randomly rambling about how great Hulk Hogan was and how great it is to have him in the show. He then talked about how Hogan is going to be making him a lot more money, so he was excited…though not showing much emotion.
ODB defeated TARA in a TNA Knockout’s Championship match
This match started out like it would be an instant classic, with Tara using her martial arts background to get some hits in on ODB and I was interested to see how far this match would go in regards to women’s wrestling. However, it wasn’t that good as within a few minutes this match was over with ODB rolling up Tara and holding the tights to get a win. I can not stress the fact enough, this match was really short. The knockouts are turning into the divas before our eyes. TNA is really making a mistake with this division, if they continue to allow short lived matches like this to progress, especially since they have more talent than the divas…or had more talent.
Post match, ODB got hit with the Widow’s Peak and Tara put her Tarantula on ODB and then we cut to the backstage area.
Backstage out of a limousine, came none other than NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR! No, not a cut out, but seriously, RIC FLAIR on camera!
The show comes back to footage of earlier, and it’s Mick Foley getting barred from the Impact zone. Hemme was out there in a skin tight suit…in broad day light. He was not allowed interest into the Impact Zone, and that was it.
Bobby Lashley came out with his wife, and it was weird. His wife cut a huge heel promo, and started to pull the “Vickie Guerrero” card. The crowd immediately turned, and was booing the crap out of Lashley and his wife. She said that he wants his release from TNA and that this was the last time we will see Lashley in TNA.
Backstage, The Beautiful People were in some closet somewhere playing poker. They then started to attempt at the most unsexy strip poker bit, and it was boring…then we finally get thrown a bone, no pun intended, we cut to commercial. Wow, the Beautiful people sucked (once again no pun intended) the life out of me and what little interest I had in the show up to this point.
Backstage, Waltman and Scott Hall were trying to get in. Security wasn’t letting them in so they started fighting the security guards and it was broken up. Looks like the Outsiders can’t come in easily.
After another series of commercial breaks, out came Waltman and Scott Hall. Then we get another set of commercials! I definitely was annoyed at the amount of commercials they cut into this lame show.
Then we get back to TNA Impact and it’s Hall and Waltman again in the crowd, then we get another set of commercials! It was definitely the most annoying thing in a long time.
After the set of commercials, and one hour into the show only 2 matches in, out came Hulk Hogan! This is what they wanted, and the crowd? It wasn’t anti-hogan but it wasn’t roaring, that’s for sure. It still was a good pop, but nothing like I’ve heard in my youth while cheering him on from the rafters. The Hogan change shirt looked cool though.
Hogan got on the mic and started to talk about how TNA is going to be #1. Mid way through his speech out came Hall and Waltman and security tried to stop them. But Hogan let them through, and they did the N.W.O signal and got mics. “HEY YO” got a nice pop, and I marked out huge…for a second. Hall seems to be ok with keeping his accent like Razor Ramon. Hall and Waltman wanted to party and get big paychecks, and this whole segment just seemed so forced. I didn’t really like it, but eh, what are you gonna do? Remember the last time “The Kings of Wrestling” came out? It was terrible. This time was headed down that road, and I wasn’t sure if they were going to recover, then some random music hit, and guess who it was?
Kevin Nash came down to ringside, and he was not looking too excited. This show was starting to resemble the South Park parody episode of wrestling, and seriously, I was having a hard time getting into it. I kept thinking about how WCW died with these four in control, and WWE threw them out. Hogan kept trying to saying, “we need to change things for the better” and stuff like, “we can’t be like we were once, we need to grow up”, which got some crowd response, but eh, so what. Some more random music hit…oh man…
Out came Eric Bischoff, and the crowd went nuts. I’m so tired of this show already! Bischoff was in the ring with a mic on Hogan’s side and they started talking about how old times changed wrestling forever and what not. Nash, Waltman, and Hall left the ring after Bischoff said that everyone had to earn their place in TNA and that was that, I guess. The live crowd ate it up, but not me. They kept saying that it was time for a Change but nothing was changing, and then we revisit the old storyline with Sting in the rafters and the announcers going nuts about how he’s been missing for months. I didn’t like the angle in WCW that much, except for when Sting would show up and mop up, leading up to Starrcade 97’ and the no-end finish with Hogan and Piper and everyone involved. Wait, that might have been, no it was 1997 Starrcade.
Awesome Kong & Hamada defeated Taylor Wilde & Sarita in a tna knockouts tag team championship match
This match started slow, but picked up into a good opening with Sarita and Wilde trying to do serious double team maneuvers, but Kong was too much for the two of them, at least initially. Backstage the Motor City Machine Guns were knocked out, and the announcers went wild for that, taking us out of the match for a moment. The match continued and there was a double Suicide Dive by Sarita and a huge cross body block by Taylor Wilde onto their opponents outside, and I was definitely impressed as usual by the knockouts. However, we go to yet another commercial break, right when the action was getting really good. After the break, Awesome Kong was in full control, and it was obvious that the tag champs were going to have a hard time with Kong, but Sarita hit a nice springboard second rope dropkick and Kong showed signs that she was indeed human in a nice bump, I couldn’t believe how fluid Kong was in this match up, and that bump proved it greatly for me. Hamada knocked out Taylor Wilde on the outside, and Kong lifted up Sarita into the Awesome Bomb position, as Hamada hit her with a huge Missile Dropkick! What’s this? A TAG TEAM FINISHER? YES YES YES! I marked out huge for this match, as it really made me a fan of wrestling again. These women get match of the night up to this point, wow…finally some legit wrestling on the show!
We cut backstage to Val Venis! That’s right, Val Venis joins the Beautiful People in a game of strip poker. So Val Venis is in TNA now? Wow.
Guess who else showed up? It’s Mick Foley and none other than The Nasty Boys! Yes, THE NASTY BOYS, BOTH OF THEM! Sags and Knobs, the Nasty Boys were both backstage and trying to get in. They didn’t get in, and were thrown out.
Now for the rewind to 1995 here was Raven & Doctor Stevie. They would face Matt Morgan and Hernandez, and the only thing I personally liked was Daffney, she’s my type….the kind that I have no chance with…ziiiing!
Hernandez & Matt Morgan defeated Doctor Stevie & Raven
This match was a non issue, it was possibly one of the shortest matches I’ve seen in a long time. The match had Richards getting a Carbon Blueprint and pinned. That’s it. Seriously, that’s it. What a stupid waste of time.
Backstage The Pope was with Hemme and a random interview. I don’t hate it, but I don’t necessarily like it, especially after the terrible match that just happened. Orlando Jordan showed up, I think…maybe? I’m not 100% sure if it was him or not, but it was interesting. Elijah Burke has some competition now, in an interesting segment that went from the bottom to the top, I started to get interested, then we cut to the ring, and it fell apart again.
D’Angelo Dinero defeated Desmond Wolfe
It started raining money, well, fake stuff like the old JBL bucks. I wish I had some of those, that’s for sure. (The Jbl Bucks) This match started with what are usually called rest holds. Dinero was in rough shape against Wolfe early on, but Dinero got some interesting offense in before this match got too one sided. Wolfe went for the Tower of London but got reversed into an escape and Dinero then confused Wolfe into a small package, and this match was over. This wasn’t a great match, but Dinero had some quick counters, which made it a little more interesting than I’ve would’ve thought possible from these two. I’m still not convinced that Desmond Wolfe is worth his position in TNA as I’ve yet to see him do anything major in ring. Sure he can attack backstage and what not, but in ring? I’m not convinced.
Rhino backstage was laid out too.

Aj Styles defeated Kurt Angle in a TNA World Heavyweight Title Match
This match started fast and it seemed somewhat old to me. I felt like I’ve already seen this match many times.

TNA Impact 12/17/09 Results and Review Foley Goes Nuts Again
TNA Impact 12/17/09 Results
Roxxi defeated ODB
Bubba Ray Dudley defeated Matt Morgan in a lumberjack match
Hamada & Awesome Kong defeated The Beautiful People andTaylor Wilde & Sarita
Tatanka defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal
Desmond Wolfe vs Christopher Daniels 10 minute draw
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles defeated The British Invasion
TNA Impact 12/17/09 Review
The show opened up with Mick Foley attacking Kevin Nash in an empty arena. That was it, he literally just fought him and it was broken up by security.
Roxxi defeated ODB
This match sucked. Roxxi put on a good bit of offense but I HATE ODB right now. She just isn’t that good. Roxxi gets the win with a roll up, and it’s just not fun to watch for me.
Post match, Tara came down after ODB was beating up Roxxi. Tara is looking old. I’m tired of the knockouts, they are turning into the divas division before my very eyes, and it’s not something I ever wanted to admit.
Just a quick FYI at this point of my review we’re about 40 minutes into the show. TNA has only had 1 match, it was terrible, and I’m seriously getting bored with the product, and you should be too.
Bubba Ray Dudley defeated Matt Morgan in a lumberjack match
Matt Morgan went for the big boot and embarrassed himself. He missed, obviously, but between Bubba moving and Morgan actually doing the move, there seemed like an eternity. That being said, Morgan and Dudley were half-speed for a good portion of the match. The Lumberjack’s got involved, and it was really only the team members that will meet this weekened at the ppv. Seriously, this match was terrible…man…the night was getting tough to review. The Dudley’s cheated their win to a victory, in one of the most obvious endings and slow paced pieces of crap I’ve seen in a while. Morgan isn’t ready yet, sorry.
Another note, we’re about 1 hour into the show, and we’re getting match #3, and that’s only after 4 or 5 commercials! I’m so tired of this show.
Hamada & Awesome Kong defeated The Beautiful People andTaylor Wilde & Sarita
If there’s a stand out in the knockout’s division, it’s Hamada and Awesome Kong. Those two can actually not only wrestle, they can put on a good overall show. This match was interesting, it had some good spots, it was fast, and it was Kong who got the win in a great ending for me. She basically squashed, I mean she sat on someone, a member of the beautiful people to win this match up.
Tatanka defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal
Tatanka is back! Well, he’s back enough to wrestle Jay Lethal, which wasn’t half bad. Tatanka has made several appearances in the WWE before and each time he wanted back in full time and WWE has passed. Well he gets a shot at Lethal, and he’s not in terrible shape. Tatanka won this match with somewhat ease, Lethal is getting squashed and you know what? If this were WWE he’d be on his way out. I’m not sure where TNA has him, but it’s getting strange to see him off television for a while then get beaten yet again.
Desmond Wolfe vs Christopher Daniels 10 minute draw
Christopher Daniels was definitely proving to be troublesome for Wolfe. I’m not sure why Wolfe is supposed to be so menacing and hard to beat? He was getting worked for 75% of this match up against Christopher Daniels. The two wrestled to a ten minute time limit, and they both had each other in roll up cradles, which was interesting to see, but the timer really made for a terrible finish.
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles defeated The British Invasion
This match really lost me. I know Lashley and Steiner were involved, but they were non factors as they fought to the backstage area. Abyss also was in a scuffle with Raven and Stevie. TNA has moved their cluster endings to the backstage area...I hate this. With time running out, Styles gets tagged in, he rolls someone up, and it's over. That's it...TNA is over!

Tatanka defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal
Tatanka is back! Well, he’s back enough to wrestle Jay Lethal, which wasn’t half bad. Tatanka has made several appearances in the WWE before and each time he wanted back in full time and WWE has passed. Well he gets a shot at Lethal, and he’s not in terrible shape. Tatanka won this match with somewhat ease, Lethal is getting squashed and you know what? If this were WWE he’d be on his way out. I’m not sure where TNA has him, but it’s getting strange to see him off television for a while then get beaten yet again.
Desmond Wolfe vs Christopher Daniels 10 minute draw
Christopher Daniels was definitely proving to be troublesome for Wolfe. I’m not sure why Wolfe is supposed to be so menacing and hard to beat? He was getting worked for 75% of this match up against Christopher Daniels. The two wrestled to a ten minute time limit, and they both had each other in roll up cradles, which was interesting to see, but the timer really made for a terrible finish.
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles defeated The British Invasion
This match really lost me. I know Lashley and Steiner were involved, but they were non factors as they fought to the backstage area. Abyss also was in a scuffle with Raven and Stevie. TNA has moved their cluster endings to the backstage area...I hate this. With time running out, Styles gets tagged in, he rolls someone up, and it's over. That's it...TNA is over!

TNA Impact 12/10/09 Results
Chris Sabin defeated The British Invasion in a handicap match
Awesome Kong & Scott Steiner defeated Bobby Lashley & Kristal Lashley
Erik Young defeated Hamada in a global championship match
Jesse Neal, Rhino, Team 3D defeated Hernandez, Suicide, & Matt Morgan
The Beautiful People wrestled in a mud wrestling match.
Aj Styles defeated Desmond Wolfe
TNA Impact 12/10/09 Review
Kevin Nash took over the show, as Foley went to “meet with Hogan”.
Kevin Nash announced what he had in mind for the night in wrestling, and you know what? It’s going to suck. Seriously, it’s ridiculous, and over the top….a shocking night of wrestling.
Meanwhile, Foley was looking for Dixie…this story line is stupid.
Chris Sabin defeated The British Invasion
This is the impossible. Chris Sabin managed to roll up a victory and it wasn’t that great at all. The Invasion had a few moments, but it was Sabin with the surprise win. This was a terrible opening match, and really unfathomable in regards to the result.
Awesome Kong & Scott Steiner defeated Bobby Lashley & Kristal Lashley
I’m not sure why they put in Lashley’s wife, as she’s not exactly trained as a wrestler, but I guess that’s just what happens in TNA…bad ideas. Lashley got worked by Scott Steiner, and this thing takes a turn for the worse. It’s sad to see things unfold like this, and It’s even sadder that TNA has to stoop to so low. Steiner pins Kristal and does push ups on her…Edge did that to Beulah at ECW One Night Stand. Way to be original tna…way to be original.
TNA does an interview with Samoa Joe and guess what? I have that shirt! Well I have 2 button down dickies black shirts, and it looked like that’s what Samoa Joe was wearing. It looked cool. Beer Money interrupted, and that wasn’t half bad. I like interrupted interviews.
Erik Young defeated Hamada in a global championship match
Hamada was not wrestling like she was some random woman, she was proving far better than Chyna ever did, that women can wrestle. She was amazing against Erik Young. Simply amazing, she was putting on a show, but it was too little as Erik Young used the ropes and a roll up to stop the momentum. I hated it. Hamada was amazing, and yet Young wins. Hamada is a gem of a wrestler by comparison folks, the divas have NOTHING on Hamada.
ODB defeated Tara in a non title trailer park throwdown
This was essentially just a hardcore match. It seemed interesting to me, that part of the stipulation was that they had to drink a six pack of beer. Sure, you didn’t see most of this on screen, but it was still part of Kevin Nash’s stipulation.
Jesse Neal, Rhino, Team 3D defeated Hernandez, Suicide, & Matt Morgan
I got distracted during this match, but I know that Jesse Neal won. I was in the middle of purchasing Simpsons Scene It on amazon for 7.99…yep. Sorry.
The Beautiful People wrestled in a mud wrestling match.
This match confused me once all the women started getting soaked in muddy water. I guess it’s interesting, but this was nothing more than a backroom bar type of match up.
The title shot was given to the highest bidder, and that bidder was none other than Desmond Wolfe! That’s right.
Aj Styles defeated Desmond Wolfe
This match was a little slow to start, but eventually it built into a good overall match up, but was derailed by interference by Christopher Daniels. The distraction allowed Aj styles to roll up, I kid you not, roll up Desmond Wolfe, making Wolfe look like a chump.
What a terrible night of wrestling folks. TNA continually makes terrible shows, and this is yet another one.
Post match, Christopher Daniels and Desmond Wolfe fought each other to commercial break.

TNA Impact 11/19/09 Results and Review A New Era
TNA Impact 11/19/09 Results
Amazing Red defeated Scott Steiner via dq
The Motor City Machine Guns & Beer Money Inc. defeated The World Elite
Hamada defeated Taylor Wilde
Abyss defeated Raven & Stevie Richards via disqualification
Sarita defeated Alissa Flash
Team 3D & Rhino defeated The Black Pope, Hernandez, and Matt Morgan
Christopher Daniels & Desmond Wolfe defeated Aj Styles & Kurt Angle
TNA Impact 11/19/09 Review
The show started with Abyss and Mick Foley coming down to the ring. There was some random frustrations talked about but that prompted Raven to come out with Doctor Stevie and of course more random yelling and what not. They set up a match, I am not interested; and after the break we get an interview with Styles and Angle arguing over the world title.
Amazing Red defeated Scott Steiner via dq
This match makes no major sense to me at all. Scott Steiner and Amazing Red is more than an obvious mis-match, and a potential to get Amazing Red hurt by Steiner’s sloppy wrestling. Steiner killed Red through the whole match, Red had no major offense, and when Steiner got tired he grabbed a lead pipe and cost himself the match.
Post match, Bobby Lashley ran down to save the day. This was a boring match, and pointless to me. Steiner doesn’t need to prove himself, it’s Lashley that needs to prove himself, after losing to Steiner at the ppv.
Kevin Nash and Erik Young had an interview…I’m sick of interviews on TNA….man this company needs to stop this B.S I’m sick of TNA.
The Motor City Machine Guns & Beer Money Inc. defeated The World Elite
Despite there being too many people in this match, and too many agendas to sift through, the guys in this match tried to make it more than a spot fest. It was hard to follow some of the action because there just is too much going on, and I hate the six sided ring. The World Elite lost control of this one several times, and eventually lost the match when Big Rob’s interference back fired. This match was too short, but had too many factions working and while one team one, it made no sense to me why it was moving the way it was. If you like spots, there were a lot here, but no where near a good match, it was just thrown together.
Hamada defeated Taylor Wilde
I’m a big fan of the TNA Knockouts for various reasons. This was quite a good match up, but it was pure Hamada. Hamada really brought her strong style Japanese wrestling style and took it to Taylor Wilde, proving yet again that you can be a good wrestler and not necessarily be a “diva”. Too bad WWE doesn’t care or watch this type of talent.
Abyss defeated Raven & Stevie Richards via disqualification
Mick Foley was supposed to be partners with Abyss, but at the start of this match, there was no Foley. Abyss started the match and was getting a good amount of offense in against these former ECW superstars. (can I call them superstars?) Anyways, this match featured a classic ECW throwback, and started out as a handicap match in a lot of ways. Mike Tenay saying “goozle” was just stupid. Abyss was doing an ok job facing both dudes, but it was obvious that Foley needed to be there to help out. Raven was trying to hit a fireball but it never worked out…the ref found the crap and disqualified Raven and Steven Richards, and this match went to the toilet. Tna sucks.
Post match Raven and Richards beat up Abyss, I got to stare at daffney and once again we hit commercial time….this is past the one hour mark, and yet no good wrestling outside of the knockouts.
Homicide was the guest on the ODB show. I hated this segment…man…TNA sucks.
Sarita defeated Alissa Flash
These two TNA knockouts are semi-new and I’ve seen them wrestle each other several times. They weren’t that good this time around. I’ve seen them do some great things in ring, but they just seemed tired in this match and it wasn’t that great. Sure they were better than any divas match I’ve seen this year, but it wasn’t up to snuff.
Post match Traci Brooks attacked Flash…I was bored.
Backstage Foley got choked out again by Doctor Stevie and Raven; once again Daffney was the best part for me.
Team 3D & Rhino defeated The Black Pope, Hernandez, and Matt Morgan
This match started out with a brawl, and then settled down a little with Bubba Ray and Hernandez getting this match going. The match immediately went into a spotfest with Hernandez flying through the air onto the outside. The Pope started throwing in a ton of plunder into the ring, and this thing was about to get interesting. This match wore thin fast, and the younger guys were taking control through the extreme rules match, but couldn’t muster up enough experience to miss going through tables, getting hit with 3D and more. The former Naval officer Jesse Neal showed up and helped get the win for the ECW alumni, in this wild extreme match up. Matt Morgan looked legit hurt after taking a bump where he leg dropped a blank table. It looked bad.
Christopher Daniels & Desmond Wolfe defeated Aj Styles & Kurt Angle
The main event this time around was interesting to say the least. It wasn’t much of a match, but it had enough gusto to keep me entertained. The match ups were distinct, each member wanting a shot at a particular wrestler. Styles seemed a bit over confident at times, and Angle just wanted a shot at Wolfe and it cost him. Wolfe was impressive in there, barely getting through Style’s attempts at winning, which would have worked on any other wrestler. Daniels helped get Wolfe out of trouble and ended up getting the pin after the Best Moonsault Ever. Overall, I didn’t hate this match, and it had enough to make it through the main event status, considering it was shorter than most main events in wrestling history.
TNA tries to entertain, but it still sucks. If Hogan is really going to make a difference, I hope he changes the six sided ring, and hopefully we get more wrestling instead of just random interviews and segments…Tna’s product is just subpar right now.

TNA Impact 11/5/09 Results and Review The Hogan Era Week 2
TNA Impact 11/5/09 Results
Beer Money Inc. defeated The British Invasion
Desmond Wolfe defeated Cody Deaner
Christopher Daniels vs Aj Styles no contest
Tara defeated Hamada
Bobby Lashley defeated Homicide
Taylor Wilde defeated Madison Rayne
Aj Styles defeated Daniels
Matt Morgan & Hernandez defeated Team 3-D via disqualification
TNA Impact 11/5/09 Review
The show opened up with a meeting that took place earlier with Dixie Carter and the whole TNA roster. She basically was giving that “I’m the boss” speech to all the guys, and it was now airing for the public. I’m not sure if it was a work or a shoot, but it sounded ok…I’m not sure what’s going on, nor do I really care.
Aj Styles opened up the real show, and Styles wanted answers to who is beating him up. Daniels came down…and he started to confront Aj Styles.
Beer Money Inc. defeated The British Invasion
This sloppy match really disappointed me. Both teams didn’t have any major offense, it was just half speed to the end. I hated this match. Beer Money won but who cares? The ref is an idiot. Erik Young introduced a world title and the ref literally put his arms up and said “uh oh!” and looked like an idiot. This match sucked.
Post match there was a melee, and on the ramp out came The Motor City Machine Guns, and security stopped things. This crap didn’t work in WCW, it’s not working now.
We now get twenty to thirty minutes of just backstage stuff. ODB gets beat up, Black Machismo gives an interview, Foley talks smack about Abyss, and that’s about it.
Desmond Wolfe defeated Cody Deaner
Desmond wins with a clothesline…that’s it. I hate this type of wrestling, and was bored. This is dumb.
Christopher Daniels vs Aj Styles no contest
Daniels was set to wrestle Styles with Samoa Joe as special guest referee, but backstage Aj Styles was attacked, meanwhile in ring Daniels got attacked by Joe. The match didn’t really happen.
Tara defeated Hamada
Tara was not getting a whole lot of offense in this match up. Hamada was really impressive in this match, and was quite good overall. However, Tara winning was a bit of an understatement of her abilities. The Widows Peak looked good, but that’s about it. Hamada looked to have injured her knee after a sick moonsault miss, but the match was somewhat short and really not that great.
Post match Awesome Kong came down to mop up Tara, but Tara leaped off the top rope in a sick swan dive into Kong and a body of security guards. You know something is wrong when your best spot in a match is after it’s over! Tara and Kong in the six sides of steel should be interesting…someone’s gotta blade though.
Mick Foley wasted about 20 minutes of time with talking to Abyss, and Scott Steiner was backstage talking about Hogan….I’m bored.
Bobby Lashley defeated Homicide
Homicide basically got pwned by Bobby Lashley. Lashley took a few hits from Homicide but then got worked and beaten fast. Lashley sucks.
Backstage Steiner was hitting on Lashley’s wife, he ran back there and there was a backstage brawl…man, who’s writing this bs?
Homicide attacked a ref and Amazing red came out to beat up Homicide.
This night of TNA was sucking big time…lame.
Taylor Wilde defeated Madison Rayne
This match was so short that when I got up to get coffee the whole match concluded. Post match The Beautiful people attacked, and a melee broke. It’s funny that although there is a big beatdown there’s no security…meanwhile earlier in the show there was a swarm of security for Awesome Kong and Tara’s melee….this sucks.
Aj Styles defeated Daniels
Even after the beatdown earlier, Styles and Daniels put a match together. This match was not given enough time to develop at all. This match was half speed, and eventually Styles was able to win. However, this match was just a trash match to say the least. Samoa Joe choked out Daniels.
Matt Morgan & Hernandez defeated Team 3-D via disqualification
Bubba Ray Dudley is getting fat again, he’s already large, but he’s putting on pounds. Hernandez was definitely getting the best of 3-d in this match up, as he had some great offense against the big time tag team. It wasn’t like Team 3-D was lying down, but man, they weren’t as intense as I’ve seen them in the past. This match turned out to be a dq with some lethal chairs, and a little help from Rhino. This match was building up quite well, then poop….I guess that’s TNA for you.
This night of wrestling sucked. Hogan wasn’t even on the show! What the heck? TNA sucks…screw it.

TNA Impact Results 10/29/09
Sometimes things happen that is beyond my control. Well, last night I guess I had some control, but it messed up the TNA review as we know it. I was trying to watch the new episode of The Office, but accidentally canceled the TNA recording, so I didn't get impact to review this morning. I usually do it in the morning because I go to bed earlier than most...due to my wife's work schedule.
So instead of a full review, here's the results. I'll have a full Smackdown review for you though, so stick with me.
Tna Impact Results 10/29/09
Tara defeated Alyssa Flash
The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Team 3D
Eric Young vs. Bobby Lashley no contest
Madison Rayne, Velvet Sky and Lacey Von Erich defeated Odb, Christy Hemme, and Hamada
Abyss defeated Dr. Stevie
Matt Morgan defeated Rhino
Kurt Angle vs. Desmond Wolfe in a street fight no contest
Hulk Hogan shows up tonight, and you know what? i don't know if he can coexist with Vince Russo...want proof? Just look at the WCW shoot that had Russo firing Hogan.
So instead of a full review, here's the results. I'll have a full Smackdown review for you though, so stick with me.

TNA Impact 9/2/09 Review
Sting defeated Rhino
I’m not sure why these two started the show, but they sure did, Sting must not be as big as he used to be. Sting started this match fresh and fast, he even got the Scorpion Death Lock early on. The first thing I noticed was don West is out and that’s rad. Oh and this match had a of rest holds. Sting hit his Scorpion Death Lock and won the match, I think…Rhino beat up Sting after the match.
Aj Styles defeated Chris Sabin
Not sure why Styles was in the second match, it seemed boring to me. Sabin sucks, that’s for sure. Styles literally outmatched Sabin at every turn, and just had his way with the tag team specialist. At least for the most part, there was definitely an interesting situation of sorts. Sabin should get credit though, he kept kicking out of a lot of the offense Styles kept throwing at him, it was an interesting bout to say the least. It’s an interesting overall match, but nothing to write home about. Styles is quite good, even if he’s only the second match.
Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels talked about their upcoming match, it was boring to me, and to you probably too.
Doug Williams defeated Suicide
Overall, this match didn’t do a whole lot for me. Sure Suicide was fast at times, but it was Doug Williams that seemed to have his timing down. Suicide kept things fresh, but overall, Williams had his number in the realms of harder offense. Suicide turned things around for a second or two, but I never thought he had a shot, even after a nice spring board dropkick. Putting moves together, into a string, was ok, but overall I think Suicide is a lame guy. The Black Pope came down to ringside and dropped him, Suicide then tried to get back into the ring, but ran right into Williams for a rolling German Suplex and pin. Impressive end, that’s for sure. That ending made the match, wow, I haven’t seen such a nice set up in a long time.
Christy Hemme & Tara defeated Sojo Bolt & Hamada
Christy Hemme has such a huge forehead, it’s hilarious to me. Hamada, I assumed would be better, however she was sloppy against Tara. Tara as well seemed slow and winded for once, and I wasn’t sure what was wrong with her in this match. Hemme was doing some ok offense, but overall didn’t really put much effort into this match. Sojo Bolt seemed poised to make a better match than anyone else, because Hamada, Tara, and Hemme were not doing so well in the timing department. After the commercial break Tara and Hemme got their act together, but man, this match was so sloppy. Tara hit the Widow’s Peak and this match was over…finally.
Hernandez defeated Homicide
These two, former tag team partners, fought each other straight up. TNA took a page out of the WWE tag team division here, putting former team mates up against one another, breaking up the team in the process. Overall, it was Hernandez that was putting the boots to Homicide, with power moves over Homicide’s quickness. While Homicide hit a lot of good momentary offensive moves, it was Hernandez that delivered the pinfall victory after a great slam. Not a bad match, but not necessarily a good one either.
Aj Styles defeated Doug Williams
Williams can’t talk on the mic, that’s for sure. Doug Williams had this match well in tow, and Aj Styles was getting punished for sure. Williams went from big power moves to rest holds, forcing Styles to really try to get his bearings back into this match up. Williams was one step ahead of Styles for a good portion of this match up, until Aj started to make a comeback, creating a bit of fan fare. Aj Styles won the match, and this match was a bit boring to me.
Sting defeated Hernandez via dq
Sting was getting worked by Hernandez, easily handing Sting a beating, and creating a good overall match, early on; not a bad way to end the show. However, the match really got weird when Homicide attacked Sting on the outside. This interference cost the big man the match.
It wasn’t Homicide, it was Erik Young all along! Then we went to another commercial.
The end of the show sucked. It was basically another WCW Nitro ending. The World Elite, and others ended up in a beat down, that’s about it. It was a melee and that was the end of the show. TNA sucks.
****PERSONAL UPDATE/NOTE******
Today I was Fired from my job. Yep. If you ever wanted to support me, this site, or anything, please purchase something via the Amazon links. I have no form of income coming in right now, and it was a shock to lose my job.
Thank you in advance if you buy something. If not, it's ok.
