The sites that I usually utilize to get the TNA program DID NOT HAVE any updates this morning. So that means you get results instead of of a review. I hate when this happens, especially since i PAID for one of the sites, what a load of BS.
I guess if reviews stop on the site, I'll at least post Results.
Mickie James, Velvet Sky, and Angelina Love defeated Madison Rayne, Tara, and Sarita in six-woman elimination tag match when Love was the soul survivor
Max Buck defeated Amazing Red and Chris Sabin
Mr. Anderson defeated Matt Hardy
James Storm, Robert Roode, Kazarian, Rob Terry, Gunner, Murphy, and Jeff Jarrett defeated Kurt Angle and Crimson in a handicap match

The Week In Wrestling Christmas 2010 Edition
This week in wrestling a lot went down. Most of which I've already forgotten, but there are a few stand out points you might want to recall from this week's wrestling offerings.
First and foremost, I DO NOT watch ROH on a regular basis. I want to. However, when you utilize the library as your main internet source, you can't really watch ROH and review them. Plus, I'm already reviewing a ton of shows so I guess ROH and other federations will have to wait until I get a job and get cable again, which doesn't seem likely any time soon.
Best Match of the Week
Sheamus vs John Morrison Ladder Match
This match was by far the best match I've seen in a long time. These two put on one heck of a ladder match in both impact and psychology. Sheamus worked the leg of Morrison, hoping to ground his high flying attack and Morrison by sheer will hit Sheamus with anything and everything that might slow down the beast. Sheamus took some sick bumps and Morrison dove through the air in such a spectacular way. I call it match of the year, but others will disagree. It really was special, and the best match of this week.
Best Show of the Week
Without a doubt WWE Raw was the best show of this week. Smackdown this week was also good, and the extended tribute to the troops wasn't half bad, but Raw hit a gear that was all too good. I loved Cena, I liked how there was NO Nexus, and things just ran well. Ziggler has main event written all over him, Cena is enjoying his role, which makes me enjoy his work in ring and on the mic. Raw was definitely a hot show and the crowd made it so much more memorable.
Worst Moment of the Week
TNA IMPACT ends without finishing the main event. I hate how the main event is cut off of Impact. I don't want to watch reaction and don't want to bleed into another show to watch what should be the main event of IMPACT. Tna keeps making terrible moves, and I for some odd reason keep watching. I'm not blaming Bischoff or Hogan, but there is something wrong over at TNA and it shouldn't take some random blogger to point that out.
That's it for this week, I hope you guys enjoy your Christmas!
Whether you hate John Cena or Love John Cena, you're going to probably want to check out The John Cena Experience 3 DISC DVD set or the BLU RAY High Definition John Cena Experience. The set contains 16 matches from all over Cena's career but most importantly goes behind the scenes of his life to show you just how much effort he puts into working for the WWE. The commercial was quite interesting and the set looks like something you'd want to pick up. If you're interested in the John Cena Experience click here to purchase it for cheap, it helps this blog continue and hopefully gets me an internet connection at home, because right now I'm using the old library in my town.

This Week In Pro Wrestling 12/18/10
This is my first and new commentary post that I will be doing each week as a way to not only add content to this blog but also run down what were the highlights in professional wrestling this week.
Memorable Moments
Raw
This week started out with the Slammy Awards edition of Raw. They said it was 3 hours, but it was really only about 2 hours and 10 minutes or so. The most memorable thing from Raw had to be John Cena and David Otunga.
John Cena defeated David Otunga in a major beat down match, and although I've seen this match before, I found that the dynamic between Nexus and Otunga seems to be the better story than just Cena getting rehired. I would love to see Wade Barrett get ousted as the leader much like NWO got split, and Nexus beat up Wade Barrett, turning him into the ultimate good guy along Cena...the unlikely team. A swerve angle might work there too, but Cena not trusting the new Wade would be interesting to say the least.
David Arquette coming back was interesting for me, although many people didn't see the point. It was a nice throwback, if you ask me, and from what I read about the backstage reaction, many people liked him.
Superstars
Zack Ryder defeated Darren Young in an interesting match. If you missed it, than you are not in the minority at else. Supserstars is not exactly the A list show and the ratings for it are terrible. I managed to see it, and out of all the wrestling this week, I think I enjoyed this match too much for my own good.
TNA Impact
Jay Lethal and Robbie E put on one hell of a match. I actually loved it so much and what made it better than their ppv match was the fact that Christy Hemme ran down to help Jay Lethal. Hemme is hot, I'd love to meet her and she seems like she would have a lot of energy and would chat my ear off. Jay Lethal recapturing the X-Division title was a good thing, but where TNA will go with the title and whether there will be a follow up to the Shark Boy thing at the ppv, time will only tell.
WWE Smackdown
The Miz and Rey Mysterio really put on a show in the middle of the card. I enjoyed that match greatly and they booked it to make Miz seem a lot smarter than his "vulnerable" champion gimmick that he said the WWE was trying to push him. Mysterio is still very popular with the whole crowd, and despite losing, he came out on top, especially later on in the night.
I'm glad to see the WWE finishing the Edge and Kane angle, and hopefully their feud is done, because it has been terrible.
Best Match of the Week
The best match of this week was definitely Robbie E vs. Jay Lethal for the X-Division title. It wasn't a four star classic, but I think it had some good overall wrestling, a great superplex, and controlling cookie was rad. I think the feud could have a little more to it, but time will tell.
The rest of the week in wrestling wasn't that memorable to me, and while there was some solid wrestling, it's forgettable.
Old School Thoughts
For some reason, I was thinking about Kevin Sullivan. Remember him? I remember he had this awesome match at Bash at the Beach 1997 in which he fought Chris Benoit. Benoit and Him transformed real heat backstage into a great retirement match in which Kevin Sullivan truly left wrestling. It's one of my all time favorite matches, and props to Kevin Sullivan for staying away from the wrestling world after he lost the match.
Just look at the promo package between the two, holy crap...the two went fist to fist at one point at Nitro and one can only assume there was real anger for those strikes.
Wrestling Shop
For those of you that have extra change and would like to find something cool to buy that's wrestling related, consider purchasing The Rise and Fall of WCW on Dvd. It features a full documentary of WCW good and bad and some great matches from the WCW era past and present. It's an interesting one, and worth your time. You can buy it here.
Lastly, for those of you that are looking to get TLC on ppv this weekend, here is the latest updated card.
WWE TLC PPV 2010 CARD
WWE Champion The Miz vs. Randy Orton (Tables Match)
World Heavyweight Champion Kane vs. Edge vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Alberto Del Rio (Tables, Ladders & Chairs Match)

TNA Impact 4/26/10 Results and Review
TNA Impact 4/26/10 Results
Ric Flair defeated Abyss
Abyss defeated Ric Flair
Matt Morgan & Jesse Neal vs Team 3D no contest
Sting & Aj Styles defeated Jeff Hardy & Double J in a Falls Count Anywhere Match
Madison Rayne defeated Angelina Love and Tara in a Knockouts Title Triple Threat Match
Kazarian defeated Shannon Moore
TNA Impact 4/26/10 Review
The TNA finally does something good, a recap of RVD’s journey to the TNA World Championship from last week with some good overall music. I liked it, but I’m not so sure about the rest of the show.
Hogan started the show in ring and gave some speech, and it wasn’t half bad, and he introduced MR. TNA Rob Van Dam and the crowd was going nuts…which is a nice change of pace.
Madison Rayne defeated Angelina Love and Tara in a Knockouts Title Triple Threat Match
This match was scary. There were some poorly taken bumps, and it just looked painful to me. Despite the women getting a little bit of time, the match just seemed forced, and not even Tara could carry the weight. This match ended with a roll up, and it wasn’t even that good.
Post match, Tara fought off Angelina Love, and security ran out to separate the two. I like how these two girls now have a separate feud, away from the title, and it can make for an interesting turn for the knockouts division. I am loving this post match feud. Good job TNA!
Kazarian defeated Shannon Moore
This match was relatively short, and wasn’t all that great. Moore has this thing locked up, but Matt Morgan ran down and interfered after a ref bump, and the match was over with Kazarian getting the win. This match was way too short, and lame.
Post match Samoa Joe came down to ringside, and he has a “heel” beard. Samoa Joe came out and hit a Muscle Buster on Kaz. Looks like we’re getting back to the old school joe where he had 4 star matches for the title.
Sting & Aj Styles defeated Jeff Hardy & Double J in a Falls Count Anywhere Match
This falls count anywhere tag match was interesting to note, but it was hard to watch. The two teams were going at each other quite well, and it just seemed like they hot shotted these match with no clear psychology…but I guess I can find common ground if I try really hard.
The match itself wasn’t all that good, it featured the normal punch type thing, but what seemed weird to me was that Sting and Hardy were yielding to “tag team” rules, which is stupid! Why would you tag in a falls count anywhere match?
During this match Sting left the ring and disappeared, but Double J found him and they battled to the rafters.
Hardy and Styles fought each other outside the ring. Jeff went to the top of the ramp and then pulled out a ladder, and went to the top for a Swanton Bomb on Styles, but Sting pinned Jeff Jarrett in the rafters, ending the match, without any jump from Hardy.
This match was stupid. Stupid rules, Stupid crap!
The Pope came out and started talking about how he hasn’t forgotten Aj Styles. However, he was interrupted by Anderson, and it looks like Pope has his new opponent in Pope. The two started to fight it out, and it should be interesting.
Anderson put his thumb in the eye of Pope and security had to break things up.
Matt Morgan & Jesse Neal vs Team 3D no contest
This match wasn’t given much time, and it was quite boring to watch. The match got about 2 minutes of the way through before it was interrupted by The Band. Team 3D fought The band on the ramp, and Matt Morgan beat up Jesse Neal in ring.
Shannon Moore saved Jesse Neal from getting further beat up and the two formed a tag team, since they both have Mohawks? What the heck!
Bischoff talks about the ranking system. You can vote for your favorite on TNA Wrestling online.
Orlando Jordan cut a weird promo, and he said that next week on the “O-Zone” will be Rob Terry, the “Freak”.
Ric Flair defeated Abyss
Then
Abyss defeated Ric Flair
Flair immediately busts himself open, and Abyss basically rolled through the old timer. This match was just sad, and Flair is way past his prime, way past. This is beyond sad, as the blood poured down Flair’s face. The match, despite having Flair busted open, was won by Flair after he brought in some Brass Knuckles.
However, the match was restarted after Earl Hebner found out that Flair used Brass Knuckles.
The match restarted and Abyss won, end of impact…man what a terrible show.
Who cares about the hall of fame rings? who cares? TNA Did an ok show last week only to return with one heck of a gamble against a stacked 3 hour raw show.

From The Mailbag 2/4/10 Edition
We're back after another seven days from the last time. I've been lucky enough to sign up for satellite television for a lower rate, to get the ball rolling on this site, and well, I'm still broke. I have no job, and am struggling...and yet no one buys anything.
Whatever...let's talk wrestling! Or should I say WRASTLING like the classic briscoe brothers would have said.
MC said in regards to this week's Monday Night Raw:
The things that caught my attention in Shawn Michaels post-match meltdown was he was tearing the DX stuff off his body.
Looks like Michaels vs. Hunter redux may be coming sooner rather than later.
If HBK fights HHH I'm going to be mad. I don't want to see them fight ever again. Shawn's break down was good and tearing DX apart means Hornswoggle's out of a job. We'll have to wait and see where it goes.
dag8ownar said in regards to this week's Monday Night Raw:
Hopefully we won't be getting a Shawn vs Hunter feud again. Please no ...
I marked out loud during the last segment. That's how every feud should start. I'm tired of watching weak angles. Heel wrestlers look terribly weak nowadays and that's why i liked what Batista and Vince did to Bret last night.
I'm also looking forward for an Edge vs Jericho feud. Chris is badass as a heel and Edge is sick in his own awesome way. They would do great, i'm sure. And what's so freaking good about Sheamus (or whatever is spelled)?. Last time i checked he was squashing jobbers on ECW, i simply don't get it ...
I'm with you, I hate the idea of HHH vs HBK. The last segment, yes, I marked out huge too, I thought McMahon got hit hard. Vince got a black eye after the segment, and I swear Hart took a hard shot on his face. That being said, Batista also gave Hart a hard shot in the shoulder and jaw. It might have been bad enough to not warrant a Batista bomb.
Edge vs Jericho? I hope so. However, let me let you guys in on an interesting note:
For the house show coming near me they are advertising Chris Jericho vs Rey Mysterio in a match for the #1 contender shot at Wrestlemania.
So I'm not so sure Jericho will even be champion. We'll see.
Anonymous said in regards to last week's TNA Impact:
What the hell happened to jeff hardy? Are they seriously just dropping that or is he taking a break or what?
The whole TNA universe is asking the same thing. What the hell? I don't know. No one's talking about him so I guess that's the end of that.
I want to thank each and everyone of you that commented, thank you very much. Keep the comments coming, email me, chat with me on aim and let's keep on talking wrestling. I'll have my first ever Superstars review up tomorrow, Smackdown review this weekend and so on and so forth.
If you have any money please donate or buy something. I could use the help.

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.

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.

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.

Tna Impact 7/9/09 Results and Review More Mafia Crap With Foley
Tna Impact 7/9/09 Results
Homicide defeated Doug Williams in a ladder match
Beer Money defeated The Motor City Machine Guns
Tara defeated Angelina Love in a Knockout Championship Match
Tara defeated Velvet Sky
Christopher Daniels & Aj Styles defeated Matt Morgan & Kevin Nash
Kurt Angle defeated Mick Foley and Jeff Jarrett w/ special guest referee Eric Young
Tna Impact 7/9/09 Review
The first thing to happen was Foley came out to talk. Foley does so much talking for no apparent reason. Mike Tenay also NEVER SHUTS UP! He talks way too much, for no apparent reason. Double J came out and the two argued about winning the titles, and what not. They set up a three way dance for the next ppv, but I wasn’t paying attention, sorry. I was tired.
Homicide defeated Doug Williams in a ladder match
Homicide returns here and he started the match fast. He was hitting all sorts of great moves. Monkey flip, shoulder block, and then threw a ladder into the ring right away. Williams was taking a lot of punishment, but evened the score with a shoulder block off the middle rope onto Homicide, who was climbing the ladder. The ladder turned into a weapon in this match up, as Homicide got really close and personal with it. Team 3-D helped contain Doug Williams, Homicide climbed the ladder and got his case back.
This match was ruined because of the ending. It was a cluster as usual. Lame. I used to like ladder matches too, but this one was terrible.
Suicide was interviewed…kind of. It was stupid. Suicide just sat there like an idiot. Then he had some voice modification and sounded like The Undertaker. I tell you now, this interview segment SUCKED TNA should stick to wrestling. Suicide sucks, Mike Tenay sucks, and you know what? Screw this crap! I went to the bathroom.
Sting and Samoa Joe argued back and forth. Sting was pissed, he said he was going to beat up Sting, but not tonight.
Beer Money defeated The Motor City Machine Guns
Booker T was talking jive on the headsets and it was ridiculous. It really made me kind of upset cause I had no idea what he was saying. He was really just rambling, and if you watched this show, you know what I mean. The match started out with Storm and Sabin fighting, it eventually ended up on the floor, and things were turning into the Guns favor with sweet offense. The match came through with some good moments, but before it really got over, Beer Money won with some great teamwork. Not a terrible match, not a good match, but Beer Money as always did a great job.
Tara defeated Velvet Sky
Tara put on a clinic of how women wrestlers should be. She really knows what she is doing, and while I don’t like the tarantula angle, I still think she’s one of the better women wrestlers in pro-wrestling right now. She hit the Widows Peak and it was over, a good overall womens match up, and I liked how this wasn’t a “divas” match. This was cool.
Tara defeated Angelina Love in a Knockout Championship Match
After the previous match up, Tara convinced Angelina Love to wrestle her for the title. Angelina Love agreed and they fought in this match up. Tara got a couple of near falls before Angelina Love ran to the outside and tried to get counted out. She eventually headed back into the ring, but Madison Rayne got in the mix. Angelina Love managed to kick out of most of Tara’s offense, and went for the Widow’s Peak twice and finally got the pin! Tara is your NEW TNA Knockout’s Champion!
Abyss was going to kill Stevie Richards backstage. Whatever. This character is stale.
Christopher Daniels & Aj Styles defeated Matt Morgan & Kevin Nash
Matt Morgan started this match up against Christopher Daniels, and was definitely looking like the lesser of the two wrestlers. Daniels was unloading a dump truck of offense, alongside Aj Styles the two were fighting through the big guy, but weren’t able to capitalize completely. The two smaller guys really worked over the bigger men, and ended up taking them out with a sweet victory. Aj and Daniels make a great team of high flying energy.
Post match Morgan and Nash beat up Daniels and Styles. Morgan put Daniels knee & ankle in a chair, and tried to injure it. Aj ran in but couldn’t save Daniels.
Kurt Angle defeated Mick Foley and Jeff Jarrett w/ special guest referee Eric Young
Kurt Angle looked specifically leaner than usual. He has lost significant weight and is starting to looked seriously ripped. Foley and Jarrett began this match working together, and being friends against Angle. Angle was taking serious hits from the two faces, including a nice delayed Suplex. The Stroke was nailed into the steal steps, and Double J looked poised to win this thing. But we went to commercial…as is the custom with these longer matches in wrestling. Jarrett and Angle were the final two for a good portion of the match, but by the time Jarrett got this thing in the bag, Eric Young gave the slowest count of all time! Double J was still getting his hits in and brought in his guitar to use! Young warned him that he would disqualify him, and ran right into Foley’s mandible claw, but an Angle Slam broke that up! Double J went for the Figure Four! Foley then broke it up via an elbow. Angle then gave the Ankle Lock onto Foley, and Eric Young gave the match to Kurt Angle, even though Foley DID NOT TAP OUT!
Eric Young, the idiot, gave the match to Angle for no apparent reason. He then got beat down by Double J and Foley, and deserved it.
Overall TNA wasn’t great, but it was ok. I didn’t hate it all, but I did hate certain aspects of it.
***NOTE****
My parents in-law are coming to town. So that means no wrestling tomorrow night. I won’t have a review for you guys for Smackdown yet again. However, I’ll be back for a FULL week of wrestling next week.
In the mean time, please purchase something via amazon. Thanks for understanding.

TNA Impact 1/8/09 Review and Results
It’s been a couple of weeks since I ventured into a full review of TNA and that’s all because they haven’t had a full show, until now. Hopefully in 2009 TNA doesn’t suck as bad as they were doing all last year. It’s been a tough road, but I’m sure they’ll figure something out.
Alex Shelley defeated Eric “Showtime” Young
The match opened up fast and furious. Shelley was all over Young, creating some high spots right out of the box. It started off quite well, and Shelley wasn’t letting up at all. All points were going for Alex Shelley as he was dropping bombs onto Eric Young. Young was definitely not doing so well in this match up, and it just seemed like he was jobbing, until Young turned things around with a quick counter out of the corner and just went for it! However, Chris Sabin turned things around for Shelley as he interfered, hitting Eric Young and allowing Shelley to hit sliced bread, creating another win for Alex Shelley in this x-division championship, semi-final match up.
Post match, Referee Shane was getting beat up by Sheik Abdul Bashir! However he went nuts and exploded, he started fighting back, and he might get fired? Whatever, he’s the best thing I’ve seen in a long time, and if he gets a match against Bashir, it would be rad. Jim Cornette fires Referee Shane, and turns him into a full time wrestler and he will get to wrestle Abdul Bashir one on one at Genesis!
Awesome Kong defeated Madison Rayne
Awesome Kong had an easy match against the new woman’s wrestler Madison Rayne. This wasn’t even close, Rayne didn’t get any offense in before getting dropped with the Awesome Bomb. Kong wins again, proving that she’s the biggest obstacle to the Women’s championship.
Matt Morgan defeated Robert Roode
I hate when wrestling shows do this, they split the tag teams and have singles match ups as a preliminary warm up to the weekend’s ppv tag team contest. Roode was doing great in this match, and while Morgan started this match with a lot more gusto, Roode was in control for the majority of this match up. Robert Roode either faked a knee injury or legitimately or tried to pull a fast one.
Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal & Consequences Creed defeated Beer Money Inc. for the the TNA Tag Team Championship Titles
Beer Money got thrown into an impromptu match thanks to feast or fired! The Tag team championship titles were on the line here, and this was definitely reminiscent of the WWE money in the bank match ups and opportunities. Lethal gets the last laugh in this match up as he trips up half of beer money into the steel briefcase, then uses the briefcase to knockout one of the members of Beer Money Inc. creating a NEW TNA World Tag Team Champions! Creed and Lethal are your new TNA Tag Team Champions!
Kurt Angle defeated BG James
I don’t know anyone that really thought BG James would win in this match against Kurt Angle. BG had a few hits in this match, but overall, Kurt Angle dominated this match up and really put the boots to BG. There wasn’t anything to this match other than a Kurt Angle highlight show. The Main Event Mafia comes out, sans Sting, and they bring out a chair, and stomp on it, trying to break the ankle of BG ala Brian Pillman and Stone Cold Steve Austin…remember that? You better remember.
Overall not a bad show, but not a great show. It seemed that there was just too much story and not enough wrestling, as usual.

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.

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 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 Impact 11/13/08 Christian Gets Made
Here we go TNA starts again with Foley and Jarrett backstage…and then we get that mid 90’s Raw intro. It’s pretty lame. Didn’t hip hop hardcore go down a long time ago? I feel cheated somehow. I still hate the six sided ring. Seriously, go back to the regular ring already! Oh well.
Rhaka Khan and Awesome Kong defeated Roxxi and Taylor Wilde
This apparently was a rematch of sorts from the ppv, and the match was similar in scope. It was the TNA’s way of switching it up a little with Khan in there trying to mix it up with Wilde and Roxxi. This was a pretty cool match and once again the women are just great in the ring. I love these women, as they put on a great show every week, and they are more than just pretty faces, they can actually wrestle! I’m always impressed by the TNA knockouts. Awesome Kong dropped Roxxi yet again with the implant buster and it was over.
Eric Young defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
This x-division title match caught me by surprise. Eric Young was no longer that nervous guy that came out and wrestled every now and again, now he’s in there confident as ever. Bashir is ok, but he seems a little slow at times. Young was grounded for a good portion of this match. Bashir eventually delivers a low blow and pushes the referee! The ref snaps and attacks Bashir! Eric Young then capitalizes by winning the the x-division title! That’s right, Eric Young, despite getting in very little offense in this match wins the x-division title!
Scott Steiner defeated Rhino
Rhino dominated this match up, and Steiner was slow out there. He has lost a little weight though. He defeats Rhino after interference from Kurt Angle, and this match was a quick one and just lame to me. It was your average Scott Steiner suck fest.
Sting defeated Jay Lethal
I never liked when the world champion would wrestle the undercard, or the lower card. It just seemed like the company was thinking that I’m a stupid fan. There’s no way Jay Lethal was going to defeat Sting. There was just no way, and he didn’t. The thing that surprised me about this match was the amount of punishment Sting took in this match. Jay Lethal was dishing out all his moves, and Sting was always coming back. After some interference, Sting won this match up. The Motor City Machine Guns inadvertently cost Jay Lethal the match up!
Samoa Joe & Aj Styles defeated Beer Money via DQ
Samoa Joe and Aj were dishing out a lot of punishment in the early parts of this match and they were looking good together, as if they were team mates for a long time. Team 3D came down to ringside and Beer Money turns things around and look strong. This is how you do tag team wrestling, finally someone in professional wrestling does it right. This match was actually good, and it brought me back to the good ol’ days of real tag teams that don’t split up after a few matches to fight each other. This match was good, and we saw some good back and forth action from both sides. Team 3D interferes and causes the disqualification and takes out Beer Money!
Christian gets beat up at the end of the show for wanting to go to WWE. He gets torn up, seriously torn up. Dang.

TNA Impact 10/23/08 Review and Results
Live from Las Vegas, NV Tna Impact finally gets it done like WWE…meaning the live part, not so sure about the show, but we’ll see won’t we?
Christy Hemme defeated Velvet Sky
This first match up was a little more than I expected out of Velvet Sky. However it was not her night as Chrisy Hemme really put the boots on her and eventually dropped a single leg guillotine leg drop off the top onto Sky for the victory! This match was somewhat short, but it was interesting enough to get my attention.
Backstage Kurt Angle & Booker T said that he would have an announcement that would change wrestling forever. He announces that there is a new faction in TNA Wrestling and the new faction consists of Kevin Nash, Booker T, Kurt Angle and……STING! They call themselves The Main Event Mafia!
Booker T’s briefcase contains, a NEW TNA championship belt. It’s red, it looks like a world boxing championship! It is called the TNA legends championship! That’s right, the LEGENDS CHAMPIONSHIP! Booker T follows up the announcement by claiming that he’s the sole Legends Champion, and the crowd goes into a Booker T chant.
Let’s rewind a little bit. Remember when Ted Dibiase couldn’t hold the WWF championship and after many bribes, futile attempts and story lines where Hogan would end up with the championship belt, he bought one? Remember? That’s right, well we are living in 2008 and we’re doing another similar story with Booker T. He went out and bought his own belt, then declared himself champion. The best thing about the Million Dollar Belt was that it helped bring in a young, fresh and hungry kid named The Ring Master…and he went on to be The King of The Ring 1996. That man is none other than Stone Cold Steve Austin. I’m just saying.
Sheik Abdul Bashir defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal
The TNA x-division title was on the line in this match up, and Lethal had gotten this shot by winning the terror dome styled match at Bound for Glory. This match started out fast paced, and really was a great thing to see, as Lethal was doing everything in his power to make this match look good. He was jumping around, doing flips, and flying out of the ring into Abdul Bashir. He was making Sheik look really bad, and I thought for sure this was over when Lethal went to the top rope for the big elbow drop, but Abdul Bashir moved out of the way, and followed that up with a ddt to Lethal and it’s all over. Sheik Abdul Bashir defeats Lethal with the Weapon of Mass Destruction DDT.
Beer Money defeated Team 3-D, LAX, and Matt Morgan & Abyss
The tag team gauntlet was actually not half bad. The audience at home was suppose to text in what weapon should be legal in this match, and that didn’t come into play until later on. The match was like “War Games” where one member of another team would be introduced. So for a few minutes the freshest guy was doing every single move in his repertoire until someone realizes that they are in a match up. The best entrance was definitely Hernandez, who came in and really cleared house, but was thwarted by the teamwork of Team 3-D who set up the doomsday device, and that cooled the big man’s streak. Matt Morgan looks a lot better this week, as the arena is a little smaller, and the camera’s weren’t in their usual locations, so this guy really looked good. He came in and started throwing people over the top, left and right. He took out the majority of in ring participants, and it was down to one member of Beer Money and one member of 3D when Abyss came out, or at least it looked like that, but things changed. Morgan was immediately eliminated while the rest of the eliminated team members ganged up on Abyss on the outside of the ring. At this point they announced that Tables were legal in this match up. The crowd went nuts when Team 3-D brought in a table into the ring, and things weren’t looking good for Abyss as Devon and Bubba Ray had something special for him. They brought out the lighter fluid, and poured it all over the table, and this was really scary, considering that Abyss was legit injured at the ppv during this spot. Abyss jumps in and cleans house, only to get scared of the table, but he picks up a lighter, but gets beat by Devon. Beer Money jumps in and starts taking it to Team 3-D, Robert Roode ends up going through the table, although not on fire, and then things start to pick up. Team 3-D was set to win, but the ref was pulled, and that opened up James Storm to come in, spray beer into Team 3-D’s eyes, and Boom….Beer Money wins the tag team gauntlet via pinfall.
Awesome Kong defeated Taylor Wilde
This match was definitely a good idea, as I like seeing Taylor Wilde out there wrestling. She was sporting a knee brace, and it looks like she is going to really take a toll, as she is a smaller girl. Kong looked dominant, if only for a moment, but Wilde was really going to work on Kong. However, that was very short lived as she got caught with a huge Kong clothesline in mid air! The rest of the match was definitely back and forth, with Awesome Kong looking dominant as ever. Then after a distraction, Awesome Kong capitalized with the Awesome bomb and got the pinfall, winning the Knockouts Championship again.
Sting & Kevin Nash defeated Aj Styles & Samoa Joe
Samoa Joe and Sting started this match up, and Joe looked amazing against Sting. I’ve seen Sting’s matches since 1986 and you know what? He’s lost a few steps, he’s good, but he’s definitely not as fast as he once was. He is most likely off the juice, and a lot older. I thought Nash was dumb, he’s not as good as his “Big Sexy” days in WCW and definitely not as good as when he was wrestling Bret Hart. We then cut to break, and we see Aj Styles getting manhandled by Styles. Styles really looks great against anyone, and he really adapted his style to fit Sting. Nash got back in and Joe tagged in and Joe looked amazing again. Nash took a lot of bumps, which was odd, and I almost had to eat my words. Nash brings in the World Title, hits Samoa Joe with it, and wins this match via pinfall! That’s right, Nash and Sting defeat Samoa Joe!
Post match, The Main Event Mafia jumps Samoa Joe and Aj Styles! This was awesome and I finally get my wish. We finally have a new “stable” of sorts, and it’s almost like the old WCW days.
Mick Foley's big announcement is that he's the new Boss! That's right, he's the new general manager type? I don't know.

Christy Hemme defeated Velvet Sky
This first match up was a little more than I expected out of Velvet Sky. However it was not her night as Chrisy Hemme really put the boots on her and eventually dropped a single leg guillotine leg drop off the top onto Sky for the victory! This match was somewhat short, but it was interesting enough to get my attention.
Backstage Kurt Angle & Booker T said that he would have an announcement that would change wrestling forever. He announces that there is a new faction in TNA Wrestling and the new faction consists of Kevin Nash, Booker T, Kurt Angle and……STING! They call themselves The Main Event Mafia!
Booker T’s briefcase contains, a NEW TNA championship belt. It’s red, it looks like a world boxing championship! It is called the TNA legends championship! That’s right, the LEGENDS CHAMPIONSHIP! Booker T follows up the announcement by claiming that he’s the sole Legends Champion, and the crowd goes into a Booker T chant.
Let’s rewind a little bit. Remember when Ted Dibiase couldn’t hold the WWF championship and after many bribes, futile attempts and story lines where Hogan would end up with the championship belt, he bought one? Remember? That’s right, well we are living in 2008 and we’re doing another similar story with Booker T. He went out and bought his own belt, then declared himself champion. The best thing about the Million Dollar Belt was that it helped bring in a young, fresh and hungry kid named The Ring Master…and he went on to be The King of The Ring 1996. That man is none other than Stone Cold Steve Austin. I’m just saying.
Sheik Abdul Bashir defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal
The TNA x-division title was on the line in this match up, and Lethal had gotten this shot by winning the terror dome styled match at Bound for Glory. This match started out fast paced, and really was a great thing to see, as Lethal was doing everything in his power to make this match look good. He was jumping around, doing flips, and flying out of the ring into Abdul Bashir. He was making Sheik look really bad, and I thought for sure this was over when Lethal went to the top rope for the big elbow drop, but Abdul Bashir moved out of the way, and followed that up with a ddt to Lethal and it’s all over. Sheik Abdul Bashir defeats Lethal with the Weapon of Mass Destruction DDT.
Beer Money defeated Team 3-D, LAX, and Matt Morgan & Abyss
The tag team gauntlet was actually not half bad. The audience at home was suppose to text in what weapon should be legal in this match, and that didn’t come into play until later on. The match was like “War Games” where one member of another team would be introduced. So for a few minutes the freshest guy was doing every single move in his repertoire until someone realizes that they are in a match up. The best entrance was definitely Hernandez, who came in and really cleared house, but was thwarted by the teamwork of Team 3-D who set up the doomsday device, and that cooled the big man’s streak. Matt Morgan looks a lot better this week, as the arena is a little smaller, and the camera’s weren’t in their usual locations, so this guy really looked good.

TNA Impact 10/9/08 Review and Results
Greetings from the sunnyville of California. Los Angeles to be exact, where I'm away from my mom's house. I'm glad she's got cable, otherwise I wouldn't be getting this review up. We open the show with Christian, Booker T and Aj Styles all trying to figure out what side Christian Cage is on. I don't like this angle at all, but then again, why not? Might as well.
Cute Kip defeated Rhino (No Dq Match)
Here we go, a no dq match between the newly gayed up Cute Kip and the War Machine Rhino. I haven't seen Rhino go to war in recent months, so I don't know what to say about all this, but hey, Cute Kip can wrestle if given a chance, so I had high hopes for this one. This match was boring, for a no dq match up. The match was basically rest holds for the most part, but late in the match The Beautiful People sprayed something in Rhino's eyes, then Cute Kip jumped rhino, and put him through a very weak looking table, and won this match easily.
Consequences Creed defeated Petey Willians (Big Petey Pump), Sonjay Dutt w/ So Cal Val, and Black Machismo Jay Lethal
They really wanted to load this match up, and we have a 4 way match up. The early favorite for me seemed to be Jay Lethal as he was getting the most offense in early on. Granted, Sonjay Dutt was focusing on Lethal with all his offense, leaving Consequences Creed and Petey Williams fighting each other inside the ring. We got a lot of spots, low drop kicks, big drop kicks, springboard clotheslines, neck breakers, and quick covers for two counts. No one seemed to get the clear cut advantage in the middle of the match up and it just seemed disorienting to try and keep up with all the wrestlers involved in this match up. In the midst of random finishing move attempts, Consequences Creed cleaned up house and got the pin, and things went down well. However, the camera's cut to Sheik Abdul Bashir in the background and made some stupid promo. Consequences Creed will go and wrestle Sheik Abdul Bashir at the next ppv. I liked Consequences Creed when he first came to TNA but now, he just doesn't seem the same. He should most likely lose at the ppv, making a gimmick match for a second shot at the TNA title, only to win it, and then feud with Sheik Bashir in a "USA" vs "Foreigner" feud, as they did in the late 70's and 80's and even a little in the early 90's with Hulk Hogan and Sgt. Slaughter. (I'm talking about Wrestlemania 7)
Why can't TNA fire Karen's Angle! I hate this, and I don't know anyone that likes this segment! Seriously, what a horrible piece of crap segment. Foley is on the show, and it's just stupid, I hate this segment.
The Blue Print Matt Morgan & The Abyss defeated Beer Money
Beer Money isolated Matt Morgan's knee after his initial onslaught of offense. He did look really good, dropping Beer Money with power moves easily, but he ended up getting worked over with a bum knee. Abyss got a hot tag and started cleaning house! Beer Money tried to make things go their way, but even with an injured Matt Morgan, Beer Money lossed this one when Abyss gave them the black hole slam and BOOM, we have ourselves some winners. This match wasn't all that bad, but it wasn't that great. It was somewhat boring at times, and while it was fast, it didn't really do it for me. Maybe it was because I was tired.
Raisha Saeed & Awesome Kong defeated Roxxi & Taylor Wilde
Smart knockouts match up, and a major step up from what I saw in WWE's diva's division. As much as WWE can improve on their diva's matches, they just don't measure up to these Knockout division matches. This one was great, Roxxi and Taylor WIlde were really working well as a team, and Roxxi was really putting a lot into this match up, I was really impressed with how much offense she got in on Kong and Saeed. Kong eventually gets thrown over the top rope, and Saeed gets double teamed, but in the middle of the match Taylor Wilde accidentally kicks Roxxi in the face! This caused some confusion, and while Roxxi looked like she was going to win this one after a missed monsault from Saeed, Kong jumped in and delivered the Implant Buster on Roxxi to win this tag match up! We immediately go to commercial, so that was that.
Christian Cage Special Guest Referee came out for the next match up!
A.J Styles defeated Booker T.
In what was easily an Impact classic, Booker T lost to A.J. styles and while we were suppose to see what side Christian was on, we actually never get to. Instead we get him added to the ppv match up, and now we won't ever know, unless a threeway featuring all three wrestlers is going to prove something. This match was good, lots of good high spots from styles, and booker t looked as fresh as ever. I liked this match up, but hated the commentary.
The end of impact bored me, with Samoa Joe and Sting brawling. I hate contract signings, they never turn out well.

TNA Impact 10/2/08 Results and Review
I was looking forward to see TNA Impact, and I admit it was all because of Mick Foley arriving into the TNA. It was lackluster to say the least.
Angelina Love defeated ODB
WE get the Knockouts up front and in the center of the ring. ODB is gross to me, she’s really gross, she just looks weird to me, I’m sorry. The match was ok at best, it tried to be a lot, but it didn’t really pan out like I thought it would. The end came with Angelina Love getting the pin, thanks to interference, and it was all over.
It’s interesting to note that immediately after the match, Jeff Jarrett came out to the ring to discuss Kurt Angle’s comments. If you didn’t hear about the comments, here they are:
"...We call ourselves Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. We say: TNA – we are wrestling. No we’re not. We’re f***ing gimmick matches. Then there are the run-ins. At the last PPV, No Surrender, we had a triple threat main event between me, Christian Cage and Samoa Joe. We had a great match, but Samoa Joe won because Jeff Jarrett came in and hit me with a guitar. I would have won if Jeff didn’t do that."
There you have it. There you have it indeed. Kurt Angle is either swerving us all and this is a work, or this is a legit shoot and Jeff Jarrett is going to come out and talk legitimately. It’s funny that there is a storyline going on right now where Kurt Angle is wrestling Jeff Jarrett and this story comes out and is now a part of the storyline. I’m not sure what to believe from TNA, and maybe that’s the kind of push they need to gain interest into this feud.
The Jarrett Promo is a little weird. But he looks serious, I’m not sure if this is all a work or not, and you know what, I like that. I like not knowing, it’s about time someone does something a little different.
LAX defeated The Motor City Machine Guns
I like LAX and I had a vision as they were coming to the ring. What if WWE signed them, then signed Lil Cholo from the independent circuit, and then signed Hector Guerrero, brought in Chavo, and Super Crazy and we had a huge latino faction in the WWE? I know they tried before but that was more of a parody, not a legit faction. I think it could work.
This match was ok, it had a lot of spots, and it was fast paced. LAX are just as good as the Dudleys used to be. These guys are well fitted as a tag team and could go really far if they ever made it to the WWE, if the WWE really focused on the tag team division again. I can’t help but notice that the Machine Guns were allowed a lot of offense this week, considering that they have been on a losing streak for quite sometime. They really worked as a tag team in this one, with tandem moves, great reversals and lots of high flying, fast offense. Hernandez catching Sabin off the top rope and dropping him on the back of his head ended this match, and it was awesome to see how quick Hernandez reacted to Sabin flying off the top rope. This was like second nature, great ending, to a not so great match. It was ok, it wasn’t all that great, but it had enough spots to make things alright.
Sheik Abdul Bashir defeated Eric Young and Jimmy Rave
We go from getting the x-division champion getting squashed last week, to him dominating this match up. Well, I wouldn’t call it total domination, but he definitely didn’t look as weak as he did when he was wrestling Samoa Joe, which is good for the division, but lacks consistency if you ask me. This match was your standard three way match up, with lots of fast reversals, great interim spots, and overall good stuff. This match was quite entertaining, as it was moving with great speed, and almost flawless. I like these types of matches because I can turn my brain off for a little bit, and just let the little guys go out there and put on a real show.
Team 3D & Booker T defeated Jay Lethal, Christian, Aj Styles
Here’s your standard six man tag. It was ok, but the Dudleys looked tired near the middle of this match. Bubba Ray is not as in shape as he was on his singles push in the WWE, and I know that’s not saying a whole lot, but I really can’t believe how much weight he’s gained while working in TNA. This match had a lot of fast tags, and a lot of times where the teams were brawling outside of the ring. I have to give great credit to Jay Lethal and Booker T for opening this match with an allstar set of counters and moves. Booker T is so fast and so is Lethal, these two in a big profile singles match could bring the house down, because their timing is dead on accurate. I haven’t seen that kind of timing in a long time, and for such a young wrestler in Jay Lethal. He doesn’t need the Macho Man gimmick, he can be a stand alone star if TNA lets him. Christian nearly wins the match with a roll up, but the referee was distracted. Aj Styles jumped off the top rope, Bubba Ray moved out of the way and nailed Christian, causing him to lose the match with Booker T rolling him up and giving another loss to Christian.
ODB & Rhaka Khan defeated The Beautiful People
Since ODB lost via distraction earlier on in the match, she really wanted to get a match for later on in the match, so we get this tag team match up. I haven’t seen Rhaka Khan in a long time, and she didn’t seem to have ring rust initially, but she’s not that good, she’s really not that good. I’m serious, she doesn’t look to be up to par with the rest of the knockouts. You know what? I”ve seen this match before too. What the heck? I had the feeling of déjà vu the whole time, as I do recall this exact match happening before, but I don’t remember when. The match was a little boring to me, and there wasn’t enough of a push for spots that I would’ve expected from the knockouts division. Rhaka Khan and ODB wins this matchup, but I swear, she’s not ready for the big time, she’s just not that good right now. She seems really “green” and just not ready for this prime time position. She really made this match suck.
Mick Foley arrives at TNA impact. I’m serious, and Foley tried to get a cheap pop and it failed. I have never seen Foley off, but he just wasn’t that charismatic, and he looked a little out of place in TNA’s six sided ring. I wasn’t buying anything Foley was saying. This was a really sappy gimmick, and Foley wasn’t doing anything good. Mid sentence, Kurt Angle came down to the ring, and interrupted Foley. Kurt Angle throws up a bunch of protests, and tries to insinuate a beat down from Foley, and these two on the mic are great.
We find out that Mick Foley will be the Enforcer for Jeff Jarrett vs. Kurt Angle at the PPV.
I'm tired. TNA made me really tired. It wasn't that great.

I haven’t seen that kind of timing in a long time, and for such a young wrestler in Jay Lethal. He doesn’t need the Macho Man gimmick, he can be a stand alone star if TNA lets him. Christian nearly wins the match with a roll up, but the referee was distracted. Aj Styles jumped off the top rope, Bubba Ray moved out of the way and nailed Christian, causing him to lose the match with Booker T rolling him up and giving another loss to Christian.
ODB & Rhaka Khan defeated The Beautiful People
Since ODB lost via distraction earlier on in the match, she really wanted to get a match for later on in the match, so we get this tag team match up. I haven’t seen Rhaka Khan in a long time, and she didn’t seem to have ring rust initially, but she’s not that good, she’s really not that good. I’m serious, she doesn’t look to be up to par with the rest of the knockouts. You know what? I”ve seen this match before too. What the heck? I had the feeling of déjà vu the whole time, as I do recall this exact match happening before, but I don’t remember when. The match was a little boring to me, and there wasn’t enough of a push for spots that I would’ve expected from the knockouts division. Rhaka Khan and ODB wins this matchup, but I swear, she’s not ready for the big time, she’s just not that good right now. She seems really “green” and just not ready for this prime time position. She really made this match suck.
Mick Foley arrives at TNA impact. I’m serious, and Foley tried to get a cheap pop and it failed. I have never seen Foley off, but he just wasn’t that charismatic, and he looked a little out of place in TNA’s six sided ring. I wasn’t buying anything Foley was saying. This was a really sappy gimmick, and Foley wasn’t doing anything good. Mid sentence, Kurt Angle came down to the ring, and interrupted Foley. Kurt Angle throws up a bunch of protests, and tries to insinuate a beat down from Foley, and these two on the mic are great.
We find out that Mick Foley will be the Enforcer for Jeff Jarrett vs. Kurt Angle at the PPV.
I'm tired. TNA made me really tired. It wasn't that great.

Tna Wrestling 9/25/2008 More With Double J
Double J started the show. It was not exactly the greatest thing ever, but it had to start, right? I wish it started with wrestling. I’m so sick of these in ring promos, and these random talks with Kurt Angle and stupid Jeff Jarrett. I wish I could just go back to sleep rather than staying up for this thing. But whatever, it happens, and even if Kurt thinks that things are getting complicated, it’s still better than being in the arena. (ZIIIING) I don’t care about this opening, it’s boring, and it just lacks the charisma that the 80’s stars had. These guys just seem to be trying to recite lines from a script, an old wcw script at that.
The big thing that comes out of this promo at the beginning of impact is that Jeff Jarrett will wrestle Kurt Angle at Bound For Glory. I guess Foley isn’t wrestling? But he probably will be a special guest referee.
Matt Morgan & Abyss defeated The Rock & Rave Infection
I do not like Matt Morgan at all. I don’t know why TNA is investing in such a vapid character, but I guess they need new guys. Abyss is great, if he wasn’t such a wuss now. Actually, I think he’s always been a wuss, if you go back through TNA history he always looks crazy until they get to the ppv where he loses or takes a TON of punishment. Abyss is like the Mankind of TNA. This match was for all intents and purposes a squash match. The Infection didn’t really do a whole lot, other than making Christy Hemme’s forehead show up on television and block my view of the action. The match was good for what it was, but it wasn’t anything that I’ll remember as fantastic. Morgan is athletic, but I’m not completely sold on the guy, and while Abyss does a great job of clearing the ring, it just seems stupid to give these guys the unstoppable gimmick of killing everyone. How long before they face each other? You know it’s going to happen right? The match ended with Matt Morgan dropping Rave and pinning him. Don West states, “Rave joins Matt Morgan’s Mile High Club” and makes me want to vomit.
Awesome Kong defeated Mercedes Steele
Mercedes Steele looks like a poor man’s Gail Kim. She’s a smaller woman, and she got rocked hard by Awesome Kong, and I was surprised that TNA would sign this woman. Mercedes was screaming a whole lot, and I was wondering what was going on, because this seemed a little weird. I got tired of hearing Steele moan and scream like a porn star, and I had to just pretend I didn’t hear her screaming and moaning. Awesome Kong basically killed Steele’s hopes of being a great TNA Knockout, and I guess all divisions need jobbers and TNA now has found women jobbers to feed to Awesome Kong. Oh well. Post match, what I knew from the moment I saw her, Raisha Saeed was really Roxi and Roxi attacks Kong dressed up as Saeed! It looked obvious and I wasn’t swerved at all. TNA telegraphed this one, so if you didn’t catch it, you didn’t miss much.

Karen's Angle is one of the worst segments ever. However, Karen was dressed so provocatively, that I almost had to take a break, cause her cleavage was insane, and she was showing off A LOT for this type of segment. She’s showing way too much to me, that’s for sure. Maybe I’m alone in thinking this, but Karen Angle is busting out of her dress.
Beer Money defeated LAX
LAX fought Beer Money in a PPV quality match up. I love these type of matches. LAX is a real tag team and not just a couple of guys that are thrown together. They work as a team and they are completely team oriented in their offense. Beer Money is also a good team, however, they didn’t look as strong as LAX in this match up and it looked like LAX was positioned to win the tag team titles again because they were doing everything in their power to win this one. Beer Money steal another match up with a distraction, and knocking Hernandez out with a beer helmet. Beer Money wins again, and now Hector Guerrero must leave LAX!!
Again we get a Sting lecture about respect, I went to eat breakfast in the kitchen.
Samoa Joe defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
This match was back and forth. Well, it was within reason, Samoa Joe didn’t look completely bad, but this was good for a few moments. It was a glorified squash match, as Samoa Joe was NOT going to lose to Sheik. So, if you’ve seen a bad Samoa Joe match, then you’ve seen this one, cause well, it was over fast. Samoa Joe put the boots to Bashir and won easily. It was an above par match, and there was a few good moments, but overall, not the best match that you could see.
Booker T defeated Aj Styles
No surprise to me here, this match was going quite well until the interference of Booker’s wife which prompted Christian Cage to enter the ring and prevent it initially. The interference helped as Booker T defeated Aj Styles in this match and the saga of respect continues. What side is Christian on? That’s the question that people are talking about. The match itself, back and forth, good match up. The two work great together, and I was really looking forward to this one, but the interference, the ref bump and stupid booking made this match boring in the end and we get another convoluted TNA impact ending.

Tna Impact Results 9/18/08 and Review The Return of Double J
I admit, I didn’t want to watch TNA, I dreaded what was coming on, and I knew it wasn’t going to be good. I just hoped I was wrong, and with a whiny Samoa Joe starting things off, I fastened my seatbelt and waited for wrestling to show up on TNA Impact…I had my fingers crossed, and here’s how the wrestling went down.
Does anybody else get annoyed at how much whining Samoa Joe does? I liked him better when he was dominating the x-division and putting on 4 star matches with the likes of The Fallen Angel Christopher Daniels. Now he’s just whining about how Sting isn’t always there to sacrifice. Lame, if you ask me.
Christian Cage & Aj Styles defeated The Motor City Machine Guns
I’m not sure why TNA puts two of their main event caliber wrestlers opening up the show with a couple of jobbers. The Machine Guns are good, but they haven’t proven themselves at all, and are usually put into these hot shot tag team matches only to lose. If you had money on The Machine Guns, you were sadly disappointed with yet another loss for the young guns of TNA. The good guys win this one easily, and it does nothing to forward their individual paths in TNA. Post match one of the Machine Guns flips Christian the bird, and the announcers go nuts about how Sting was right.
Please fire Mike Tenay and Don West! Worst announcers ever.
Johnny Devine, Petey Williams, and Jimmy Rave The Prince Justice Brotherhood
We had six man tag team action with the superheroes of TNA and three other jobbers. I kid, those guys aren’t jobbers, they are part of the Rock and Roll infection and the former x-division champion and current Scott Steiner clone Petey Williams. This match was quick, and really didn’t have time to develop at all. The best parts of the match featured Petey Williams, as he is very talented, despite his looks. The Justice Brotherhood won this one easily, and that was that, they left the ring fast.
Post match though, things got really exciting. The Rock and Roll Infection triple teamed Petey Willaims and during the melee, Lance Hoyt pushed the ref, but the ref got angry and started to fight back! Williams and the ref both started to clean house, and beat down the bad guys, and things get really good, Earl Hebner comes out to calm the ref down, and we’re most likely going to get the ref wrestling someone in the near future. Overall the best part of Impact so far was this post match melee, because the actual wrestling was too short and didn’t feature anything worthwhile.
Booker T defeated Jay Lethal
I’m not sure why I was so interested in this match up. But it was probably the best thing in wrestling this week. Black Machismo used to be more Macho Man-esque, but now he’s not really doing as much to resonate with Randy Savage fans. If you remember, Randy Savage did a lot of rest holds, alongside fast clotheslines, and top rope double axe handle smashes. Savage was fast, and he had a certain move set, but he had a charisma that Lethal doesn’t really have, even though Booker T is a great opponent to try and unleash more Randy Savage mannerisms. Lethal put in a lot of work into this matchup, and Booker T looked as though he wasn’t going to win this one, but right when I was thinking this thought, Booker T hit the scissors kick and BOOM, Lethal was out for the count and Booker T defeats Black Machismo clean with the scissors kick. Not half bad, I enjoyed it greatly.
Rhino & Taylor Wilde defeated Kip James & Velvet Sky
This match sucked. Kip James is huge, that’s what I realized when watching this match. He’s a huge guy, and he’s not being used in any capacity as a wrestler other than to act gay just like he was acting way back when. Rhino is ok, but I can’t rally behind him unless he’s goring people through tables. This match was really slow and boring, and while I should’ve cared a bit more, I just couldn’t stand to see these four wasting their talent on such a lackluster match. There was a lot of stalling, and a lot of misses that just seemed too obvious to be good. For example, Rhino is in the corner, Kip stalls, and then runs at him, and goes for a splash, but everything seemed to be in slow motion so Rhino moves out of the way, meanwhile Kip holds the ropes to let himself down onto the turnbuckle slowly, and reacts as though that move knocked the wind out of him. Taylor Wilde ducks a shot with pipe of sorts, then gets the win out of nowhere, and this match is finally over. This is the lowest point in the TNA Impact show, and the worst match I’ve seen in a long time. I’d rather see a WWE Jobbers match than watch this one ever again. I couldn’t even focus on the women to distract me, this match sucked, and it really made me want to go back to sleep.
The Double J Return
Double J Returned tonight, and boy did he have a lot to say. He basically told Sting that he was no better than the veterans of WCW and that the guys in the back are just waiting for him and Angle alongside Booker T to just step aside. I was impressed with this segment, and it was incredible to hear someone say that the veterans need to move out of the way and make the younger guys stars, BUT, this isn’t going to happen, you know it isn’t going to happen. Double J is stellar, and I’m happy to see him back in the business.
The best part of this promo at the end of Impact was Kurt Angle’s response to Double J. He called the fans assholes, he said that He alone carried the company for 2 years, single handedly! He then said that Double J is a has been and that if Jeff wants to come out and talk than he better be ready to get socked out. Kurt Angle then tells Double J to get the hell out of the ring, and that HE’S Not a wrestler and doesn’t have anything left.
What happens next is something that could’ve been great, but instead just simply makes me hate TNA. Mick Foley shows up on screen and cuts a Cactus Jack Promo, Mick Foley is now officially in TNA!

TNA Results 9/11/08 and Review
I didn’t want to watch Tna Impact this week, I was burnt out from work, and I was just overall not feeling it. But I managed to watch it, and though there is a lot of talking on the show, I managed to focus on the wrestling, since that’s what Impact is suppose to deliver most.
On one note though, I’m getting tired of seeing the TNA video game entrances, it looks like the old N64 games, which could be bad or good depending on your point of view. I didn't go into detail with every single promo, every interview, because that takes me forever to write down and comment on, so I just focused on the actual wrestling found on Impact, which makes things easier for me and you.
Abyss vs. Christian Cage ended in a No Contest
I wasn’t too thrilled with this match at first, I thought it didn’t make a whole lot of sense. However, I’m a huge fan of the low dropkick, and after Christian hit that on Abyss, I marked out huge. However, Abyss thwarted any comeback that Christian had, catching him off of the Frogsplash, and I was really drawn in. I don’t understand the whole angle where Abyss is growing anxious and how he can’t put away Christian. We didn’t get a winner because Kurt Angle and Booker T rushed the ring and beat the crap out of Christian. Abyss just stood there for a while, then got involved, turning on Angle and Booker, however that was short lived because Angle and Booker started to beat down the monster! Abyss was about to get his brains scrambled but Matt Morgan made the save, and this will most likely push Morgan into the main event world of TNA, much to my dismay.
Taylor Wilde won an evening gown face off. Way to make the knockouts look dumb, so much for the wrestling, as we’re getting treated to WWE Style divas gimmick matches, so lame.
Angelina Love won a bikini showdown. What a load of crap this was. I must also note that the Prince Justice Brotherhood were the judges. This sucks. I hate this stupid crap.
Awesome Kong defeated Roxie in a Bimbo Brawl
Kong destroyed Roxie, but Roxie did manage a good amount of offense before Kong took over. Roxie gets busted open, receives chair shots, and loses the match with Kong’s finisher. Afterwards she was going to give more punishment to Roxie but ODB showed up to save the day. She then hits the referee with the chair!
Samoa Joe defeated Johnny Devine, Lance Rock, Tyson Tomko
I thought Tomko quit? I guess not, because here he is getting squashed by Samoa Joe. Samoa Joe just rolls through three idiots fast, and easy. They just squashed three of their newer talents, and I guess that’s ok right? I like Joe and all, but he doesn’t need to defeat some jobbers to get over at this point, he’s the champion, and a horrible one at that. Tomko did put on a lot more fight than the first two guys, and while it was short, Samoa Joe didn’t beat Tomko as quickly as the first two opponents in this gauntlet style match up.
Taylor Wilde defeated Angelina Wilde in a talent contest. Once again, this was stupid, I’m tired of seeing this random diva crap on TNA. This shouldn’t be anything like WWE and I can’t believe I have to sit through this crap. TNA is turning the knockouts into the WWE divas with crap like this.
Kurt Angle and Matt Morgan defeated Abyss and Matt Morgan
Could this be the new “it” tag team? It could be, and Abyss did a great job teaming with Morgan. I didn’t completely hate Morgan in this match, and it looked like Abyss and Morgan had this match sewed up completely. I was actually enjoying this until Team 3-D ran to ringside and hit Abyss with a chair, knocking him out and allowing Kurt Angle to win this match up for his team. This match was ok, but I hope this doesn’t lead to Matt Morgan getting title shots and singles matches, I can watch him as a tag team partner of Abyss but not alone.
