TNA Against All Odds 2011 Results and Review

The crowd seemed hot for this one, and it was nice to hear. I wish the announcers talked about it. THe opening match had me pumping my fist, that's for sure...because Robbie E and Cookie can really create some heat. I am a fan of Robbie E, even if I'm the only one.

Robbie E faced off one on one with Kaz, and the match was really fast paced, with lots of fast moments. Cookie got involved and I was marking out for the old school ending, but when Kaz kicked out of a roll up after getting hit in the face with a boot I saw this match slipping away from the New Jersey bad boy. Kaz would eventually get the win, after the Fade to Black Reverse Tombstone, and the crowd went wild. NOt a terrible match, but it left a lot to be desired from me. These guys can put up a better match, even if all we got was this one. Robbie E should have the title, if I do say so myself.

Kaz defeated Robbie E in the X Division Title Match

Immortal came out with the body guards (Gunner and Murphy, and Rob Terry) came out for a match, and I already hated it. ROb Terry is so huge, that he should've kept that feud with Orlando Jordan. They were building it up to be quite good. Beer Money would get a shot at them, and they are just wasted here. Big Poppa Pump came out to join them, and he's the only big name in this match up. I think I might mark out huge for an Undertaker vs Steiner match, just for the meeting. This match wasn't a complete waste, but it was apparent that Robert Roode and his partner were carrying the work load. Steiner was way over with the in ring crowd, which was nice. Steiner delivered a top rope Frankensteiner!!!!!!! I kid you not, TOP ROPE FRANKENSTEINER! Scott Steiner hit one hell of a move and I marked out huge, alongside the rest of the crowd, wow! A HUGE FRANKENSTEINER saves the day!

Beer Money & Scott Steiner defeated Gunner, Murphy & Rob Terry

Samoa Joe and The Pope put on a good enough match. I'm always surprised at how Samoa Joe can move in ring. He can really go, despite how fat I perceive him being. He started this match fast and the crowd was all about it. Joe has some great finesse in ring, He seems to float through some of his moves, and it's really good. The Pope, on the other hand, seemed a bit lost at several moments during this match up. The Pope took the turnbuckle pad off, and this match seemed to lose momentum when Joe was almost thrown into it. The Pope reversed a nice roll up into the Kakina Clutch and I was amazed! What a finisher.

Samoa Joe defeated The Pope

Post match, the Pope seemed impressed, but not hurt. Joe won the physical battle, but Pope is winning the psychological warfare.

Up Next, was the Knockouts match, and wow, what a waste. Mickie James botched several moves, and this thing was going terrible. The match was boring, and things were saved by Tara, she ran down and helped the flow of this match. Mickie James and Madison really made for a good overall second half the match, and I loved it, only because Madison took out a pair of Brass Knuckles and KNOCKED OUT Mickie James while the ref was distracted and won this knockouts match! The brass knucks get the mark out moment in this match up. I guess I'll pass it because I marked out huge, oh and I guess I called the match right huh?

Madison Rayne defeated Mickie James in a last woman standing match

Super Mex and Matt Morgan had a confrontation, and I hated it.

Matt Hardy cut a promo, it sucked. He is really trying to be Raven. It was weird.

Matt Hardy wasn't really good here, but he is losing weight gradually. He wasn't as bloated as I've seen him in previous years, and he put on an ok match. RVD did NOT put on a great match, and I think it's the caliber of opponent here. There were some nice spots to follow, including a unique submission move that I haven't seen in years. RVD would lose this one after a botched attempt by hardy to hit a Moonsault. The crowd was losing steam here, and that's when RVd would get the win with the Five Star Frog Splash.

RVD defeated Matt Hardy

This match wasn't really that good. Bully ray and Devon fought each other brawling all the way. The match really got interesting towards the end, with Bully Ray putting Devon in handcuffs to the ring post. His sons ran in and they got beat down. Yes, Devon's kids got beat up, one went through a table too, it was sad. I couldn't believe what I was watching. Bully Ray pinned one of Devon's sons...this was sad.

Bully ray defeated Devon

Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett put on a good match, although nothing comparible to many others. Karen Jarrett kept getting involved and would cost Angle. Kurt really did manage to put on a few good shots on Double J including suplex after suplex. Jarrett looked frustrated in this match at several points, including when Angle kicked out of the Stroke. The momentum shifted when the ref took a bump and Angle went to the outside to brawl with Double J. Jarrett introduced a chair and Angle couldn't use it, and this match got some steam again, and I was actually cheering for Kurt Angle! I wish Angle could get a shot at Taker, on a sidenote. Karen distracted Angle in the corner and after The Stroke was hit from the middle rope, this match seemed over, but nope! Kurt made Jarrett tap out at one point, but the ref was distracted! Jarrett was able to turn things around, and got Angle in a sick roll up! JARRETT WINS! JARRETT WINS!

Jeff Jarrett defeated Kurt Angle

Post match it just seemed sad as Angle genuinely looked sad, and he started crying and left his boots in the ring...signaling retirement.

There hasn't been a main event that has been so lame sounding, than this one. I tried to avoid spoilers, but I knew what would happen, and I was saddened to see this is the main event.

One of the worst Ladder matches I've ever seen happened here. There were some nice brawling points, but there was no drama, no real enthusiasm here, and Jeff hardy got the win, surprise surprise. What a lousy ending, I can't vouch for this, this sucked.

TNA Impact 2/10/11 Results and Review

Ah yes, I finally get to sit down and watch TNA. I know that this is going to be a train wreck, as I heard "They" was just Forchan or whatever they call it, and I can already hear crickets going off for the story lines that the TNA creative team is pushing, but maybe, just maybe they can do something better....we'll see.

TNA Impact 2/10/11 Results

Immortal came out and it looks like a bunch of jobbers instead of the main event status that you'd hope for. THe members are seriously bad, including Double J, Karen Angle, the security guards, the hardy's and more. It's sad.

Fortune came out while Bischoff was cutting a promo and they have new shirts. They stood face to face with Immortal, and they squared off verbally. After some words were exchanged, they fought each other and out came Crimson, Kurt Angle and Scott Steiner hit the ring and cleared everyone out. That was that.

Bischoff was backstage trying to recruit Super Mex to join Immortal.

This was supposed to be a tables match or something, but it started off as a complete brawl. Joe and Pope ran off, the Dudley's were fighting on the outside. Matt Hardy for once didn't look bloated and fat, but maybe it was just the file I was watching. Rvd and Hardy fought each other and it looked like Hardy was drugged because he was taking some odd looking bumps while RVD was trying to compensate for his opponents obvious impairment. BUlly Ray got in the face of Devon's kids and the kids jumped the rail and held Bubba's legs while Devon shoved him through a table and that was that. This match was over. A lousy match with a cool spot ending, I guess I can't complain that much, it had some good moments, specifically Devon's kids jumping the guard rail and helping Bubba fall through a table.

Rvd, Devon & Samoa Joe defeated Bully Ray, The Pope, and Matt Hardy

Karen Angle isn't THAT ugly, I don't know what the internet is saying.

Jarrett said that if Angle wins the match on sunday, Angle will get custody of the kids?! Oh man...this is just bad. Jarrett stated that if he wins Angle will renew her vows with Double J live and Angle has to walk down the aisle and give away Karen Angle in marriage to Jarrett. This is stupid, that's what I would be chanting. Nothing really happened with the contract signing, no one got beat up, it was just a waste of time.

This was an 8 knockouts tag match, but no one said anything they just kept announcing women. Rosita was introduced as a new knockout and she's really small. She's a lot smaller than the other divas and isn't quite as good. That didn't matter, the rest of the knockouts fought each other and this match was a cluster of a battle. Rosita got the pinfall victory, and that was that...a strange kind of match.

Sarita & Rosita and Tara & Madison Rayne defeated Angelina Love & Winter and Mickie James

Madison Rayne and Mickie James will battle this weekend in a Last Knockout's Standing match. There was a promo, but it was lousy.

I'm not sure why they would have a title match the Thursday before a ppv and then have Jeff Hardy cut a promo like he's the champion! What the heck!?!

Ken Anderson and Matt Morgan put on a very safe looking match. This match wasn't at all anything I'd expect. It was safe until the ref bump and that's when Hernandez hit the ring and beat up Matt Morgan. Morgan would get thrown into the ring and Anderson would pick up the scraps and get the win. The match for the most part was boring, and tired. Anderson is NOT a charismatic champion, the title belt looks like a divas belt, and on a ladder outside the ring was Jeff Hardy just watching.

Ken Anderson defeated Matt Morgan

Hernandez then beat up Anderson, and that was that.

The x-division triple threat was the highlight of the night. Robbie E, Suicide and Brian Kendrick had an interesting match with lots of high spots, lots of reversals, and just a battle in a fast match. This match seemed as though I was watching in fast forward because things just kept going forward and the match seemed like it was going to get Suicide over, but instead it was Robbie E and Kendrick that impressed me most. After some distraction from Cookie, Robbie E would get the win.

Robbie E defeated Suicide and Brian Kendrick in a triple threat match

The line up for Against All Odds was run down, and it was not impressive. I feel sorry for anyone that is going to pay money to see it, because it's a terrible card.

The main event wasn't even about the WORLD TITLE! THis is the same problem I have with WWE sometimes. They make their titles seem unimportant.

Jeff Jarrett teamed up with Jeff Hardy to face off against Kurt Angle and Aj Styles, and something was awry up front. Aj Styles had the same tights he's always had, which doesn't seem to change anything since he just turned face, right? He should update his look a little. Angle started the match after a tag in, and Jarrett ran away. Hardy and Angle locking up was interesting to see, and it was very obvious that ANgle still has some amazing wrestling skill, despite being in the worst wrestling company going today. This match took a lot of rest holds, and through a lot of commercials, you had to watch some of the worst wrestling. Sure Angle can go, but Hardy was just sloppy and throwing some terrible offense at the olympic gold medalist. The match sped up towards the end and Angle and Styles took it to the bad guys here, and Aj Styles would eventually get the pinfall, thanks in part to a distraction by Karen Angle. Aj hit a nice splash and pinned Jarrett.

Aj Styles & Kurt Angle defeated Jeff Jarrett and Jeff Hardy

Post match Jarrett hit the stroke on Angle and Styles. Hardy then came in and hit the Twist of Hate. Fortune hit the ring, IMmortal hit the ring, and everyone just started fighting.

This night in wrestling was some of the worst I've seen in a while. The matches seemed clustered together, and performed with lazy attitudes. The story line is so convoluted, and I really don't care about the title picture. There's no tag team titles? The x-Division title isn't going to be defended? What happened to the tv title? See, there's a lot of terrible points for TNA and it doesn't need to be this way.

Oh well. Lots of random crap to end today's wrestling posts...I'm going to sleep now.

TNA Impact 12/23/10 Results

Kaz & Robbie E defeated Generation ME
Angelina Love & Winter defeated Tara & Madison Rayne
Aj Styles vs Douglas Williams went to a draw
Matt Morgan, The Motor City machine Guns, and RVD vs Fortune

TNA Impact 12/23/10 Review

The show started with a recap of last week's show, and I liked the recap far better than the actual show. It's funny how TNA can make something look so great in the recap but can't keep the majority of wrestling fans attention during their 2 hour showcase. I hate the title screen, by the way, in case you were wondering.

The show started with Immortal or Fortune or somebody coming to the ring. I have no idea who is in this group, it's just so dang large, it's like NWO 3,000 and I don't understand why I should care since there are no real faces in the company.

The ring was set up for a "weigh" in of sorts. Mick Foley came out to talk about Anderson and what not. They are still talking about the "concussion" thing. I had a concussion once, it sucked, but I was back in action within a few weeks. Bischoff talked at length about how Foley sucks etc.

Jeff Jarrett defeated Amazing Red

Jarrett came out again for his MMA gimmick. Amazing Red came out to challenge Jeff and lost the match after a few moments. Yep, Red taps out and that was the end of the night.

Jarrett gets good heat, I admit that. however, Jarrett doesn't have a real opponent to knock him off his pedestal. Amazing Red could be used so much better in the x-division with Jay Lethal, and yet he's jobbed out here in a stupid match with jarrett. He said that his baby brother would come fight Jarrett next week. Hopefully it's Angle.

Kaz & Robbie E defeated Generation ME

The match wasn't half bad. it had a good amount of back and forth. Generation Me and Robbie took most of the match and in the end Kaz tagged in and pinned a random dude and was the #1 contender to the x-division title.

I just want to point out that Shark Boy hasn't been involved since the ppv, so there's a wasted thing. Robbie E is pushed aside now? Lethal is out of character now, he can barely talk on the mic since he isn't doing the Macho Man gimmick. The whole match up was just odd. The x-division title used to be a highlight of TNA and now, it's just an after thought.

Sarita and Velvet Sky fought in the dressing room. It was a nice cat Fight. I'd love to fight Sarita in the back room, it'd be fun.

Angelina Love & Winter defeated Tara & Madison Rayne

This match wasn't very good at all. It had a few moments that were good, but it was mostly brawling and random moves. Winter came out towards the end and started fighting Madison Rayne. Winter won the match after Angelina took a lot of punishment, but she nearly botched a sideslam, and it just looked bad. Angelina Love & Winter are the new Knockouts Tag Team Champions, and it's a shame. I haven't seen a positive Knockouts match up since Gail Kim and Awesome Kong were in TNA.

Aj Styles vs Douglas Williams went to a draw

This match wasn't great, but it did have a lot of action. Aj Styles was completely winded towards the end. Douglas Williams seemed just fine throughout the match up. The two were supposed to fight in an Iron Man match and it wasn't half bad. At one point Aj Styles got on the mic and asked for a rematch, and Williams said no, at first. Then after Styles continued, and got a rematch for Genesis. This whole segment was boring.

If Styles loses at the ppv, he's going to get fired.

I'm telling you, this segment was relatively boring to me.

Matt Morgan, The Motor City machine Guns, and RVD vs Fortune

this match was ok at best. It was rushed and despite the rush, it had little to no great thing. Robert Roode looked good as Beer Money is a good overall team together. Other than them, the rest was just tired. The tag teams did most of the fighting.

The show ended and you had to tune into Reaction to finish watching the show. I don't get Reaction so I didn't see it. So I don't know what happened. Sorry. TNA sucks, and they continue to baffle me as to why they do this. I don't care to even investigate what happened, so your guess is as good as mine as to what happened after the match was over.

TNA once again ruins wrestling for most fans.

TNA Bound For Glory 2010 Review

I'm late on this review because I was busy trying to get a job all weekend. So far, no good. 13 months, jobless...I don't like blaming the recession, but this is getting ridiculous.

The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Generation ME

The opener featured two teams that had been itching to face each other for quite sometimes. This match had high-spot after high-spot, and it just kept going. Generation Me kept hitting some tandem movies, and nothing was more amazing than Jeremy's 450 splash off the top with his brother holding one of the Machine Guns, it was insane. My only complaint about these high spots is that they never seem to have any major effect on anyone. That's my only complaint, because other than that, this match was just a fast paced, no psychology type match that featured so much tandem action, that it didn't even need a referee, because no one was tagging in and out at times. The Motor City Machine Guns win this one, and what a 20 minute match up, it had every spot you could possibly have in a cruiserweight match, and it really got the crowd going nuts. I don't like spot fests, but they are sure entertaining, that's for sure. There's just no reason to have so much action and have little to no payoffs...it's just stupid. It was entertaining, don't get me wrong, it's just not very "cerebral" I guess....not a 4 star classic, but not a terrible match.

Tara won a four way match to win the Knockouts Championship

One of the worst matches in women's wrestling history was this four way. It was seriously the worst match I've ever seen. The best part was after the match when Mickie James clobbered Madison Rayne.

The Knockouts are the WORST wrestlers in history, this match sucked beyond compare, seriously, the worst, I can't believe this piece of crap match.

Erik Young is an idiot...I hope he gets fired.

Ink Inc defeated Orlando Jordan and Erik Young

Erik Young cost his team the match when he got in and beat up Orlando Jordan. This was a comedic match with NO real purpose other than to be stupid. This was the dumbest match I've seen in a long time, worst than the Knockouts! This is just stupid, and I"m sick of this terrible booking.

Jay Lethal defeated Douglas WIlliams

Even though lots of time was spent on Jay Lethal, no one cares about him nor Williams in a match. It was stupid to say the least. Sure there were some nice moments, and Lethal can wrestle, but NO ONE CARES about this because it's never on tv and it's never really pushed. TNA has things so backwards, that by the time Lethal won this match, I was ready for a coffee break. I'm sick of this lousy booking, and random matches...Lethal can go, I'll give him credit, but I just didn't care for this match because I didn't see it coming at all, and I review TNA Impact every week, so it shouldn't surprise me should it?

SHORE beat up Jay Lethal. He wants the X-Division TItle. I'll take it...Shore isn't half bad. THis could be the best villain that TNA has created in a long time.

Rob Van Dam defeated Abyss in a Monster's Ball Match

The worst Monster's Ball match I've ever seen. This is the worst Van Dam match I've seen, and I've seen RVD put on some stinkers. Not only did this match suck, it didn't have nearly the impact that you would expect from these matches. Abyss eventually turned into an idiot, and lost. I don't know what to tell you guys about this one. It was just a stupid hardcore match that didn't even go anywhere. There were a few broken boards or something, but seriously? This was the poorest excuse for a hardcore match I've ever seen...seriously, worst hardcore match ever. I said it.

Who Kidnapped Samoa Joe? If Van Dam nearly died, why does he win so easily? Ugh...what a boring ass match. RVD and Abyss put on a terd of a match, sorry.

Kevin Nash, Sting & The Pope defeated Samoa Joe & Jeff Jarrett

Samoa Joe worked on three guys and managed to hold his own for the most part. He was basically winning at all points of this match up, and it was interesting to see Joe having to fight for his life. He was going to get the hot tag, getting Double J into this thing, but Double J left him. He then got beat down by three men, and yet there was no dq? Yeah. Samoa JOe got killed by the three monsters, and fromw hat I hear, Nash is done with TNA.

The match was stupid. Joe was left out cold in the middle of the ring. I'm so tired of lame booking. Terrible terrible match.

EV2.0 defeated Fortune in a Lethal Lockdown Match

This match was insane. It was terribly booked, it was crowded, it was stupid. There was blood, there were high spots, broken tables, fighting on the top of the cage, inside the cage, and on the floor. It was like a Bunkhouse Stampede match, only it was terrible. It was slow moving, and just didn't really do much for me.

Did I mention I still don't know who "THEY" are, and I still don't know what the big surprise for TNA was, or what would change things? This thing was stupid, to say the least. This ppv up to this point was just terrible, seriously, it was just terrible, so much wasted hype.

Jeff Hardy defeated Kurt Angle and Ken Anderson to win the TNA Title

The main event is what you'd expect from TNA. The three men really went toe to toe with each other, and there were a lot of close calls, tandem moves, and even triple moves at some points. I thought Hardy had this thing sewn up several times, and Angle looked to have won this match at several stages too, but for whatever reasons, it just wasn't meant to be for each man. Eventually, the match broke down and it was just Angle and ANderson left in ring, and after the REF took a major bump, this thing looked to be doing terrible.

Bischoff ran down to the ring with a steel chair and was going to knock someone out, but out came Hogan with crutches! Then Hogan and Bischoff were going to fight, but Hardy turned and hit Angle! Hardy turns HEEL! HOgan and Bischoff were supposed to be in on it too? Hardy hits ANderson too. Hardy then pins ANderson and wins the match. Yep. Hardy turns heel, Bischoff and Hogan turn heel too, and we have a new champion.

Screw job finish. No major surprise.

FIRE ALL TNA WRITERS, FIRE RUSSO, ugh...why do I still watch wrestling? I wish I had a life or a job...something...anything.

Double J and Abyss come down and I guess this is they? I'm sick of this bs...ugh...what a terrible night of wrestling. If you paid for this, ask for your money back, this was stupid. STUPID. UGH. I'm so sick of wrestling....of this stupidity. TNA sucks so bad!

RVD ran down and of course he got a beat down. Worst TNA ppv ever!?!?! Yeah...pretty close.

What about the ranking system?

Who kidnapped Joe?

Nash is done with TNA?

Angle didn't win, so he's retiring?

I'm done folks...ugh...what a terrible ppv.

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.

TNA Impact 4/19/10 Review

Aj Styles came out and cut a lame promo. Despite the fact that he’s the champion, he sucks on the mic. He was interrupted by Rob Van dam, who looked exactly as I remember him. The crowd was chanting his name, and apparently he’s most likely going to get a shot at Aj next. Will he win? I don’t know. I thought for sure The Pope was going to win last night. Oh well.

Hardy came down, and then Hogan came down, and the crowd went nuts, for no apparent reason.

Hogan cut a longwinded promo, that just made me want to fast forward, but I wanted to see where this was going, so I paid attention, despite being bored. So RVD will face Hardy to see who’s the #1 contender.

The Beautiful People defeated ODB & Daffney

This match was stupid to say the least. It wasn’t much of a match and really was just as rushed as anything the WWE Divas have ushered out. This match sucked, and the division now sucks too.

Abyss gave a random promo, but I don’t care about Abyss, so I tried not to think about it too much.

Team Flair came out and beat up Double J and Abyss. Big Rob came out to help out. That prompted Bischoff to come out and get on the mic,

Rob Van dam defeated Jeff hardy

This match was given a good amount of time, and while I could tell RVD was winded and Hardy was phoning it in, the match progressed nicely, and eventually yielded us a number #1 contender. I enjoyed the match overall, but it wasn’t necessarily that great. There were some good spots, but it was obvious that RVD was winded and not necessarily ready for a title shot later tonight.

Team Hogan defeated Team Flair

This match was basically a rehash of last night’s match only without a cage. The match was your standard match up, which wasn’t all that great. It seemed forced and rushed, and then out of the blue out came a dude with a random beard…a heel turn beard? No. It was Samoa Joe and he bulldozed all of Team Flair’s guys. Joe returns with no advancement of any major story line! This is lame.

Rob Van Dam defeated Aj Styles to win the TNA Heavyweight Champion

This match was interesting to say the least, it had a few good spots, but it seemed that Aj was way better than RVD in terms of stamina. Although Styles put on some good moments, it was Rob Van Dam with some quick reversals and moves to counter Styles’s onslaught. In what was a relatively short match, Rob Van Dam becomes the NEW TNA World Heavyweight Champion.

In my honest opinion, this makes Pope’s lack of a win somewhat lame. Rob Van Dam wins? I don’t know…I am not buying it, but whatever. RVD is finally a world champion.

Post match they gave a HUGE celebration to RVD with a lot of people coming out of the back and then Team 3D raising him on their shoulders. This was ok, but eh, Rob Van Dam has yet to prove he can still go.

Tna Impact 3/22/2010 Review

Impact opened with Bischoff playing Spanish Guitar and it was kind of cool.

Eric Bischoff challenged Double J to play guitar, then taunted him. Jarrett was ready to hit Bischoff with a guitar but didn’t, and ended up walking away.

DOUBLE J came back and smashed the crap out of a guitar on Eric Bischoff’s head! The crowd went completely ballistic, and I was going nuts too! Right on JEFF!

Backstage Jeff got a standing ovation from Mick Foley.

Foley will fight Double J and one of them will be fired. Lame.

The Beautiful People and Daffney beat up Tara.

The Beautiful People & Daffney defeated Tara, Sarita, Taylor Wilde, and Angelina Love

These girls can wrestle when given time to perform. The match was standard fare, nothing was really sticking out to me. Daffney and Tara’s feud might end up lasting a lot longer, as the two couldn’t avoid a collision course in this match.

I think that the women’s division in TNA is great, but I’ve seen the same 8 people over and over again and it’s starting to bore me.

Tara hit a sickening Widow’s Peak on Lacey Von Erich, and I thought this was done, but nope, Daffney hit a nice finisher and pinned the Knockout champion! I liked it. They call it the Lobotomy neck breaker and it looked awesome.

Backstage Aj Styles and Ric Flair arrived. Flair is still in a wheel chair and Styles on crutches. A hilarious arrival to the Impact Center, and not half bad for the two idiots of TNA; otherwise boring two in my opinion…

Hogan and Abyss cut a promo…boring. I don’t care about Abyss. I don’t care about Hogan either. I thought they were going to bring change to TNA, but recently it’s just been a bore.

Ric Flair came out and cut a promo in his wheel chair, and Aj Styles talked crap…I don’t know, Styles can’t talk, and he sucks. I’m hating on this after watching 3 hours of PPV so give me a little break here.

Sting shows up and locks Hogan in a corner. Styles throws away his crutches and Abyss gets beat up by Styles. This makes absolutely no sense to me.

The Pope’s music hit and he ran down to the ring. He did a number on Styles and Hogan & Abyss took turns mopping up Styles, and Pope hit his finisher.

Big Rob Terry defeated Tyson Tomko

Tomko is so fat it’s embarrassing. Terry rolled through Tomko with relative ease. I didn’t hate this match but Terry has to be on so much roids it’s ridiculous. Whatever, he reminds me of a super jacked Ken Shamrock.

Jeff Jarrett defeated Mick Foley w/ Beer Money as Special Guest Referees

This match was 20 years too late. Jarrett might be able to still go, but Foley is so past his prime, and in his books he promised he was done and not going to be one of those guys that retires than comes back again….then again there was Wrestlemania 2000 wasn’t there? Nevermind.

Foley was taking bumps on the Ramp, which was odd to me. Jarrett and Foley managed to put on a watchable encounter. A chair was thrown into the ring, Mr. Socko came into play and hit Jarrett with it. Foley took a shot to the head with a chair, then Double J hit the stroke on a chair, and it was done. Foley is fired.

Not a great match, but it was passable.

Post match Beer Money beat up Jeff Jarrett without mercy. I don’t really care for it.

Jeff Hardy’s music hit and out came Hardy & Van Dam for the save.

Matt Morgan vs Hernandez

These two fought each other and it looked like Hernandez hit hard and was injured….not really! Well I don’t think so anyways. TNA is supposedly sending Hernandez to Mexico, so this is an easy way to get him out of the company for a while. The match was all Hernandez for the most part, but Morgan injuring him means we’ll get a new tag team championship partner or a new team? Not sure.

Rob Van Dam & Jeff Hardy defeated Beer Money

Hardy and Van Dam worked well together against Beer Money and of course Beer Money was quite good. I didn’t hate this match, as it was given a good amount of time to develop and played to the strengths of all the participants.

A nice Swanton was followed by a Five Star Frog Splash and this match was in the books!

Erik Young showed up to the middle of the ring and said that next week there will be a Six Man Tag.

Pac, Hall, and Nash vs. Erik Young, Jeff Hardy and Rob Van Dam! I hate six man tags.

Oh well.

Tna Impact 3/8/10 Review

TNA has a new theme and entrance, which reminds me of the Attitude era or Thunder opening. Overall it’s nice to see them change things up a little, with this live edition of Impact.

There was a lot of hype regarding the first five minutes of TNA, but the first five only really had Hogan and Abyss in ring. The crowd was going nuts for TNA, chanting TNA loudly, causing Hogan to have to weight a little longer to talk about. Hogan then cut a promo, which bored me…cause I’m tired.

The first match was none other than the hyped match up that was advertised all week. The main event was actually the first event, which seemed odd to me.

Hulk Hogan & Abyss vs Aj Styles & Ric Flair

This match was interesting as Hogan and Abyss were getting pummeled with relative ease, the lights went out and I hated this crap. STING showed up in the ring and protected Hogan and Abyss? This seemed like WCW crap to me, not change or anything!

But then Sting attacked HOGAN AND ABYSS! The swerve! I can’t believe I got swerved! Aj Styles grabbed a chair and nearly killed Abyss with it, and then Flair hit Hogan in the skull with a chair, busting him wide open! Sting left the ring and let Styles and Flair beat the crap out of Abyss and Hogan. I had mixed feelings about this.

On one hand, I don’t mind, on the other hand, this is just the same style of booking that made WCW famous at times.

Hogan changed the rules and added a NO DQ clause, so that there would be a winner no matter what.

The match didn’t continue, and the cameras were sent backstage to follow Sting. Sting choked out Dixie and said “I OWE YOU NOTHING” and it was just awkward.

Then quick cut to Flair and Styles getting interviewed.

Brooke Hogan & Hogan’s girlfriend were backstage, and it was sad.

Kaz was in ring and cut a stupid promo. That dude sucks. Kaz was interrupted by Christopher Daniels, and he said that he was going to lead TNA into battle. However, Daniels got buried a few weeks ago so I didn’t care about this at all.

Doug Williams interrupted, and walked down the ring, and cut a random promo against the two idiots in ring. Eric Bischoff made a triple threat match for the X-Division title match and it started immediately.

Doug Williams defeated Kazarian and Christopher Daniels in a triple threat x-division title match

This impromptu match started sloppy, but started to move forward quickly. Williams was most impressive to me, while Daniels and Kazarian seemed a bit off for some reason. Kazarian nearly killed himself with a huge flip over the top rope onto his opponents. I’m surprised he didn’t hit his legs on the guard rails, it was really close! Kazarians top rope double dropkick was a great spot in this one, and I was surprised the match went on for this long. Doug William’s Chaos Theory Suplex was the most impressive finish I’ve seen in a long time. He managed to get the pinfall and win this triple threat match.

Post match Shannon Moore ran down and attacked Doug Williams, and looked to have surprised Williams with relative ease.

Bischoff announced that Shannon Moore would fight Doug Williams at the ppv for the title.

Dixie Carter forced Sting to fight later on tonight, but it was for a mystery opponent…oooooh…..awwwww….who could it be?

The Beautiful People (Velvet Sky and Madison Rayne) defeated Taylor Wilde & Sarita and Tara & Angelina Love in the women’s tag title match

TNA stripped the belts from Hamada and Kong since they couldn’t defend the title in 30 days…or because Kong quit.

This match wasn’t half bad at all, it had some good moments, but out of the blue Daffney ran in and hit Tara with the Women’s title belt and caused The Beautiful People to win the titles.

Daffney was wearing this amazing corset of source that really had me going for a few seconds….nevermind.

Backstage Desmond Wolfe attacked the pope, hitting him with a chain on the injured ankle.

RVD defeated Sting

ROB VAN DAM showed up to TNA and literally just killed Sting. A top rope kick to the head and a quick move and he pinned Sting 1-2-3.

Post match Sting fought off RVD with a baseball bat. Then just left the ring. Way to debut huh? Stupid. Way to kill the momentum.

Hogan came out bloodied, and was charging to the ring to fight Sting, but a ton of security held him back. Meanwhile, Sting hit RVD with the bat, then hit Hogan with the bat.

What a terrible night for Hogan.

Kevin Nash & Erik Young will face Hall & Waltman at Destination X. If Waltman and Hall beat Nash and Young they get a contract! I smell a Nash heel turn…we’ll see.

Erik Young defeated Six Pac

These two light weights battled it out in an impromptu match up and it wasn’t half b ad. I was actually impressed with Pac’s flexibility and speed. Young was definitely hanging in there toe to toe, and the two put on a cool match. Young hit a nice Piledriver and won the match. This was fast, but I liked it.

The US Army surrounded the Impact Zone and Kurt Angle called out Mr. Anderson. Anderson was backstage and Angle immediately dragged him to the ring, and the two brawled in ring. Anderson tried to leave but was stopped by U.S. Army! This segment was gold, and Angle threw Anderson back in the ring! Angle was then tossed out to the ring and was beaten up by the ARMY! I kid you not! The Army was like Lumberjacks and they were getting them some Anderson! I liked this! SOLID! Anderson was getting worked over by both Angle and the recruits, and the impact zone was going completely ballistic! I was going Ballistic on the couch, cheering on Angle, which is rare for me. Angle hit an Angle slam and left Anderson in the middle of the ring, beaten and nearly bloodied! This segment was gold!

The Army ran inside and lifted Angle on their back! This was amazing, great segment. TNA DID SOMETHING RIGHT!

Beer Money defeated Jeff Jarret with special guest referee Mick Foley

Mick Foley stopped a backstage brawl, and Double J was getting worked over huge. This was just a glorified beat down. Storm and Roode punished Jarret with everything but the kitchen sink, but Jeff did manage to get a few shots. Jarrett got a comeback going and looked like he could take on the former tag champions. Jarret was about to use the barbed wire bat on beer Money but a new ref ran down and stopped it. Beer Money then hit hard and beat Jarrett. Double J's burial continues, and I'm not sure if he'll ever rise up the ranks.

Backstage Brooke Hogan was on screen talking to Hogan. Hogan promises his daughter that this will be his last match ever.

Hulk Hogan & Abyss defeated Ric Flair & Aj Styles in a no dq match

This match was restarted under NO DQ rules, and was a really good ending in my view to a halfway decent show. Flair was busted open big, and he was bleeding a river. This is kind of sad, but heck, what are you gonna do? Hogan was pummeling flair's face with right hands, and just killing him.

Here's a random thought. If it's no dq why did Abyss and Styles not interfere with Hogan literally killing Ric Flair?

Styles got the hot tag and fought Hogan. Brooke Hogan kept showing up on camera and was acting as though this was real.

The match broke down with Abyss hitting his finisher, Hogan hitting a leg drop, and Abyss getting a black hole slam on Styles for the win. He'll face Styles for the title at Destination X.

Post match, Desmond Wolfe came down and attacked with a chair. However, out came The Pope for the save. Wolfe was cleaning house, but got chop blocked by Aj Styles. This prompted Jeff hardy to run down to the ring and hit anyone that was still moving. He hit Wolfe with a great finisher then the Twist of Fate and the crowd went nuts! The feed cut out as Hardy was flying through the air on the bad guys.

FINAL THOUGHTS!!!!

Overall I liked TNA better than Raw. I can't believe they actually put together a good show. There were less skits, more wrestling, and stuff I actually cared about.

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!

Tna Impact 7/23/09 Review

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

Homicide defeated Samoa Joe w/ Taz via disqualification

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

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

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

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

Kevin Nash defeated The Amazing Red in a Legends Title match

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

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

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

Tracy Brooks won a Konckouts Battle Royal

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

TNA Impact 6/11/09 Review

The show opens up with Foley, talking on the mic, boring me and the rest of the bloggers that review wrestling to death. Foley is good on the mic, but he doesn’t need to be champ and he doesn’t need to be on the mic so much when there’s so many opportunities that can be created. Double J came out to the ring, and then after some words were exchanged got beat up by Foley’s security guards.

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

Team 3-D has lost more than a step as they have aged here. They seem to be getting too old to fight off the average onslaught of guys that they are in the ring with. Lethal used to mimic Macho Man’s style way more, now he’s just slow, and really not as good. Shelley and Lethal worked together for a good amount of time, but this match just seemed very forced from Team 3-D almost as if they were just going through slow motions to get through this match up. Giving it all they had wasn’t enough as Team 3-D still managed to fight off all 4 people in the various teams, and they even knocked off the British Invasion for a few moments. Doug Williams hit Bubba Ray Dudley with a steel case and made Team 3-D lose the match. Lame match, slow and just forced.

It was around 9:44 and this match started….there’s not much wrestling on TNA these days in the first hour.

Samoa Joe defeated Scott Steiner in a first blood match

This match was supposed to be a first blood match, and it started with simply Samoa Joe and Scott Steiner. There were a lot of head shots in this match as this was in fact a First Blood Match. Word on the street said that Samoa Joe is injured too. Steiner was busted wide open after Samoa Joe put a trash can on top of him then went to town with a lead pipe! That was kind of cool…a little extreme.

Samoa Joe defeated Booker T in a first blood match

This match was a complete piece of junk. Seriously, who writes these things? This match was terrible. First off Joe was way tired and second Booker T didn’t get busted open significantly. It so happened that a lead pipe to the stomach caused Booker T to start bleeding and therefore he lost the match. He was “coughing” up blood! What the heck? This was one of the worst insults to my intelligence as a wrestling fan in a long time, this is a travesty; and I guess Samoa Joe continues his victories, although I still hear he’s injured.

Shane Douglas defeated Aj Styles

Shane Douglas hasn’t been in the sun in a long time and it showed. He also was fatter than usual. Douglas looked like someone’s fat, out of shape stepfather. However, he hit really hard against Styles, and although Styles was carrying he momentum in the match, Shane Douglas managed to fight his way through a bunch of different pieces to make a better match than all of his xpw exploits. Out of the blue Aj Styles hit an arm bar and submitted Shane Douglas. This match sucked, Douglas is cool when he’s not fat.

Post match Christopher Daniels ran down to help Aj Styles, only to get beat down by Shane Douglas. This prompted Samoa Joe down to the ring for the save…and Shane Douglas runs away. This segment sucked…just so you know.

Tara defeated Madison Rayne

Tara is just Victoria, and she is already sporting knee brace…awesome. Seeing Tara in TNA is really impressive, she works really well in ring and proves yet again that she wasn’t really a diva, she was a wrestler trapped in Vince McMahon’s pony show. Speaking of wrestling, Madison Rayne can also wrestle. The two of these women put on a show that didn’t get me aroused, it got me interested in women’s wrestling yet again! Tara won this match after a sweet standing moonsault and the Widow’s Peak! Great match, best thing on TNA this week, hands down.

Kurt Angle defeated Sting in a King of the Mountain Qualifier

I give it to TNA they did put on a main event caliber main event. The two icons in TNA right now put on a decent match up considering that they’ve already given this match on ppv many times over. The two kept going at it in a lot of rest holds and random classic wrestling reversals, but still managed to get in a few great power moves. The ending was great, with some sweet reversals, and some great technical know how, these two put on quite the psychologically driven twist at the end. However, it looked like it Sting who got the best of Angle, after a nice powerbomb. Matt Morgan came down to ringside to distract Sting for a moment and allow Kurt Angle to get the upper hand, and boom..the Angle Slam and it was all over.

Tna Lockdown 2009 Review

That’s right folks, we get another TNA ppv, and I don’t know how I do it, but I get to review it because Comcast lets me every now and again. So here we go, the tna review, or however it is you want me to call this thing.

Eric Young defeated Danny Bonaduce

Eric Young is so much bigger than Danny. That’s the first thing that I saw in this match up. Eric Young was laying into Danny and it looked great, but Danny got a few shots in, nothing too insane, but he was trying more than the average jobber. Eric Young defeated Danny after a few minutes, and this was a throwaway match up.

Post match Danny attacked young from behind, but Rhino ran down to ringside and speared the crap out of Danny, and this segment finally ended.

What a terrible thing to give away in the pre-show, but it was free…well…free for those that ordered it.

Suicide defeated Jay “Black Machismo” Lethal, Kiyoshi, Consequences Creed, and Sheik Abdul Bashir

I was under the assumption that there were teams in this match up, it all confused me; Specifically because this match up was just left and right action. Everyone was just free for all, with the exception of Lethal and Creed, who were teaming together to make things a little different.

Kiyoshi was eliminated first.

Creed and Machismo together were doing good as a team. I liked how they were cleaning house and trying to make this match more than just high spots. It wasn’t meant to be though, Sheik hit the DDT of Mass Destruction and eliminates Creed.

Consequences Creed was eliminated next.

Suicide’s running lariat eighteen minutes into the match up was nice. He turned Lethal inside out!

Black Machismo got eliminated somewhere, when I went to a bathroom break and my wife was reading her twitter instead of watching the wrestling. Lame.
I came back to see Suicide and Bashir getting into the match up hook line and sinker. At this point I wanted Suicide to lose cause he’s lame. I don’t really like Bashir, but at this point, he’s better than Suicide. Kiyoshi ran down to ringside and tried to stop Suicide from getting out of the cage. He jumped off of the top onto a pile of people to win this match up. This was a terrible match, in 23 minutes, the x-division was suppose to be good.

ODB defeated Madison Rayne, Sojourner Bolt, and Daffney

I’m assuming this too was an elimination match. These things confuse me, I want to say that TNA is NOT all gimmicky crap, but this is just another nail in their coffin. I hate this crap.

ODB won this match. I guess it wasn’t an elimination match up. It was a queen of the cage! This was an ok match, but it was just boring to me. There were a few high spots, but not really something that was going to gain more fans. They really wasted their time with this match up.

The Motor City Machine Guns defeated LAX, and No Limit in a WGP Jr. Tag Championship match up

When WCW had those great N64 games I would make matches like this. Seriously, I made these types of matches. That’s also how slow this match was. The middle of the ring was opened up for the most part. The edges were filled with people hitting right hands, elbows, and the middle had Hernandez hitting power moves. Seriously, I hate this crappy wrestling. TNA STOP MAKING Six Sided Cage matches with 20 people inside! Ok, not 20, but if you saw this match, you know what I’m talking about. There just wasn’t enough room in this match to make something good. There were too much competitors in a small ring, and it just came across as stupid to me. Maybe the Chocolate Stout was talking at this point, but I really didn’t think this match was all that good at all. This match was one fall and The Motor City Machine Guns won. I didn’t like it.

Matt “The Blueprint” Morgan defeated Abyss

This match stared with Abyss driving himself into Matt Morgan, shoving his weight around, trying to throw Morgan through the cage as he was just opening up like a house on fire against Matt Morgan. Matt Morgan knocked out Abyss with a kick to the face with a chair, and busted him wide open, creating the first major casualty on the ppv as far as blood is concerned. Morgan then started to lay into the forehead of Abyss. Matt Morgan introduced something I haven’t seen in a very long time. He brought out a bag full of shards of glass! Yea, that was a little weird, and I guess it was part of the match. It couldn’t have been real glass because Morgan was grasping the pieces with his bare hands, and you know that’s not possible without cutting your hand. The Ref got taken out with a Matt Morgan cross body block and business really started to pick up here. Stevie Richards came down to ringside to stop Abyss from using a chair on Matt Morgan! That’s right, Stevie Richards ran down to ringside to stop Abyss! I guess the big revelation was that Doctor Stevie is none other than Stevie Richards. Richards got into the ring to stop Abyss, verbally assaulting him, then slapping him, trying to stop him from using tacks. Morgan than hit a huge slam on Abyss onto thumbtacks and glass; he won after pinning Abyss.

I admit, the match started of great, but it really slowed down to nothing more than a parody of a Mick Foley, mid 90’s match. Abyss has a lot of talent, and he’s just taking pointless risks at this point. Matt Morgan shouldn’t be involved in this feud, but oh well. Stevie Richards return? That was kind of cool, I have to admit that.

Angelina Love defeated Awesome Kong and Taylor Wilde in a triple threat Knockout championship match

A triple threat match isn’t exactly what I wanted at this point. Honestly, an hour into this thing and I personally no longer cared about this ppv, it just seemed overkill as it always does to have every match in a steel cage. It never worked for WWE and it doesn’t work for TNA right now. At least not for me, I didn’t really like it. This match had some great spots from Awesome Kong. Kong missed a top rope dive, she also had to fight of Taylr Wilde. The ending of this match up came with Angelina Love playing possum. She had her tag team partner outside tie up Kong’s hair to the cage and so she was stuck. Taylor Wilde then was surprised by Love playing possum, a roll up happened and we got the pinfall win and NEW Knockout champion Angelina Love! Not a great match, not a memorable title change, but it happens.

Team 3-D defeated Beer Money in a IWGP Tag Team Titles & TNA Tag Team Titles Match

With so much hype over those New Japan belts in this match, I had it in mind to root for Team 3-D because they are in need of another championship. This match started with Team 3-D cleaning house, literary, throwing Beer Money out of the ring, then following them out to trash them. The fight went into the audience, then we got the good ol’ fashioned split screen. Things came towards the ring, and a table was set up! Beer Money double suplexed Devon through a table at ringside, then threw Bubba Ray Dudley into the cage, his face completely busted open. The third rope Bubba Bomb onto Robert Roode was definitely a highlight for me that was incredible. Towards the end of this match up, Team 3-D really got into a groove and looked great. They seemed to be having fun for a change, and things were going quite well for them. Devon was getting a table, Bubba was setting up, Beer Money was down and reeling from the onslaught of offense. But then Beer Money got a leg up, and started to use their skills to strike like the champs that they are. Throwing Team 3-D into the cage, setting up the Last Call, and just trying everything they could to win this match up. Beer Money miscalculated the cage door bump to the head, and Team 3-D hit 3D to win this match up! They are the new TNA Champions!

Chris Daniels, Aj Styles, Samoa Joe, Jeff Jarrett defeated Kurt Angle, Booker T, Scott Steiner, Kevin Nash

Kurt Angle and Chris Daniels started this first period, and they were just mat wrestling. Nothing too crazy was happening in this match up, then Booker T came down and him and Kurt Angle were having their way with Daniels. (I know that sounds gross, but it was true man, what can I say). Scott Steiner jumped into the match and it had some nice belly to belly suplexes off the top rope on Styles and Daniels! Samoa Joe was scheduled to come out but for some reason he wasn’t coming out. He just stayed behind, and then came out with a few seconds later. He immediately hit Steiner, then went back and forth with the Main Event Mafia, hitting every suplex in the book, reminding me of Tazz’s old wrestling style. Kevin Nash came out, but was immediately kicked in the face by Joe, hitting the fence immediately. Kevin Nash and Samoa Joe exchanged blows outside, but then he forced himself into the ring and was just dominating early on. With so many bodies in the ring, this thing started to really slow down. Then came down Jeff Jarrett and things were starting to pick up in an all new way. This match was fairly gimmick free, until the roof of the cage lowered down with all sorts of weapons hanging from the top of it! Oh man, this is the biggest gimmick match of all, and what a load of crap. This was worse than the old Raven’s funhouse matches. They switched to a six way camera view of the action and I had no idea what to watch, this was like a weird video game of some kind. Aj Styles and Kurt Angle were fighting on top of the cage. This looked very dangerous, a lot more dangerous than the Hell in the Cell bump. Aj jumped off the top into the middle of the ring, and it looked like Steiner just got his knee blown out! Not a lot of people caught him it was bad, it was really bad, and it was a great match pivot point at this time. There were just too many people in the ring, which made things really bad. There was just too much going on for the camera’s to follow. In fact this reminded me of the old wrestling games on Genesis or SNES, just a lot of crap going on in the ring, the occasional nice finisher, but nothing really going good. Jarrett hit Booker T with a guitar shot, AJ pinned him and this train wreck of a match completely blew up and it was over. This match sucked, I’m sorry, it was just too jumbled.

Post match, the lights went out. Then out came none other than Bobby Lashley! That’s right, Bobby Lashley came out! BOBBY LASHLEY came out and pointed his finger at the cage!

Cactus Jack defeated Sting to win the TNA Championship

I saw Beyond the Mat this weekend and boy was that a nice lead into this match up, which featured a much older Mick Foley in a cage match against Sting for the Tna heavyweight title. Lame. Immediately, this match turned macabre with Cactus Jack getting his face grated open through the side of the cage. This match was a good attempt at trying to entertain jaded wrestling fans, and it told a good story. Sting’s overtly better wrestling skills and stamina shown through, as Cactus Jack was trying to give it another go at it. This match had a silent crowd for the most part, until Cactus put on the Scorpion Death Lock, but didn’t get a submission out of it. This was a really slow moving match up, and Cactus started to act like a madman. At one point he slid into the cage on purpose in order to hit the camera man, and then he tried to get out of the cage through a hole made for the camera guy. Sting turned on the Scorpion Death Lock, it looked like it was going to be over somehow. Meanwhile, Foley got the barbed wire bat into the ring, and was ready to use it on Sting! Cactus Jack hit Sting in the crotch with the barbed wire bat, it looked terrible; a drop toe hold got Foley down, and Sting got the bat and was ready for revenge. Mr. Socko comes out! Sting finally gets busted open, but not really crazy. Foley took the barbed wire bat and hit Sting in the face with it. Foley and Sting started to climb out of the cage, and FOLEY drops out of the cage first, to WIN the TNA World Title! That’s right, MICK FOLEY defeats STING to win the TNA TITLE! MICK FOLEY IS THE NEW TNA CHAMPION!

TNA Destination X 2009 Results and Review Sting Retains

What’s this? A ppv review from your pal sir j? Yeah, once again I’ve managed to scrape up a few dimes together to watch this piece of crap we call tna ppv. I am barely scraping by, so I had to save a few bucks to get this, so I hope that you, the reader, can appreciate my tone and my review here, as I’m doing it for the love of the game, not for money. I wish I had more of both, that’s for sure.

The show opened up in black and white with clips from the public domain of recession. It also showed some previous things that went down on TNA Impact the last few weeks. Overall not a great intro, and I could do without hearing Hoobastank every five seconds. Seriously, why did Hoobastank get picked? They suck, this intro sucks, and boy am not looking forward to more tna ppv’s…unless they change their booking completely.

Taylor Wilde, Roxxi, and The Governor defeated The Beautiful People & Madison Rayne

The Governor started this match, even though no one cares about Sarah Palin any longer. Oh well, here we go, the start of this match up, nothing too insane here, just your average start. The Governor is out there barefoot, and it’s interesting to see, I don’t think there are a lot of wrestlers out there without their boots. The match then moved forward from that point with the good guys (I should say gals) in full control. I also must note that Don West is out there with Mike Tenay, though he still sucks if you ask me; and I know you didn’t. The match was fast paced, a lot of distracting the ref here and there, which is interesting for sure. The match went into a melee, and things got crazy outside, leaving Taylor Wilde inside to get the pinfall after a bridge suplex. This match was ok at best, it seemed rushed at the end, and before things could settle, we went to the backstage area. TNA did a terrible job with the knockout match up, it was lame; oh well.

*note The Brutus Magnus graphic was premature, so if you were quick, you caught it.

**note again, out came a Navy Officer to be the guest ring announcer.

Brutus Magnus defeated Eric Young

Eric Young will face off against Brutus, and why not? The kid is on a minor roll, with that big win on Thursday against some fat dude that the Main Event Mafia found. Brutus Magnus didn’t catch Eric Young off of a moonsault from the corner, and the crowd made the two wrestlers eat it, and it showed that Magnus is not quite ready for the ppv world. He’s not that good, face it, I’m not sure why they are trying to make this star, as I don’t really like him, and while there are some moments of glory, he’s just not there yet, at least in my opinion. Magnus was not half bad with that top rope finisher, which was insane, if you saw it. It was a fireman’s carry to jump off the top rope, almost like death valley driver in a way. Good overall ending, but a terrible match up if you ask me. Once again it seemed rushed.

Sheik Abdul Bashir came out and just randomly yelled about how TNA is racist for not hiring him to wrestle. Jim Cornette came out to yell at Bashir to tell him that no one likes him, and that’s why he’s not on the ppv. He then had that Naval Officer come into the ring (Cornette called him up). The naval dude starts to sing “God Bless America”. Bashir has no choice but to leave, seemingly disgusted. This is a dumb angle, and I’m not sure why the TNA writers keep trying to push this, they don’t need it.

Matt Morgan defeated Abyss in a 10,000 Tacks Match

This match started out fast, with both men throwing haymakers, and pushing forth a great amount of effort. Of course, this thing had to slow down, because it wasn’t going to be a progressive match with the amount of brutality that these two started out with. Matt Morgan and Abyss fought to the ramp entrance, with Morgan hitting the Carbon Footprint right into the tacks. It was a wicked fall, and that was the end of the match up.

ODB had some stupid getting a date contest, it was dumb. Some dude named Deter or something, it was stupid, this is the dumbest thing I’ve seen on tna in a long time.

Awesome Kong defeated Sojourner Bolt in a TNA Knockouts Title Match

This match had a good opening, with Bolt sending every offensive move she had early on, but it was Kong who pushed her weight around and began to dominate with heavy moves that gave her a lot of breathing room and like a bigger wrestler, she just methodically worked over Bolt, causing a lot of strain. Things took a slight turn when Kong missed a huge splash off the top rope, causing Bolt to get a second chance in this match up. She went for quick pins, and tight rolls ups, but couldn’t score the three count. Bolt got caught trying a Hurricanrana which proved to be the end of her match up with Awesome Kong dropping her on the back of her neck and winning the match; another successful defense.

Samoa Joe vs. Scott Steiner ended in a no contest

Samoa Joe came in and just started a fist fight with Scott Steiner. Nothing else, just a straight fist fight, as he ran in and started off fighting, busting open Scott Steiner immediately. This match was the same match we saw with Edge and Matt Hardy when Hardy came back from being fired. Steiner got busted open, Joe beat up the ref, the match was thrown out, I guess Scott Steiner kind of wins via dq, right? I don’t know.

Aj Styles defeated Booker T in a Legends Championship Match

This match started off a little slower than the previous matches, and rightfully so. Booker To isolated Aj’s Arm for a good part of this match up, creating a little space between him and the high flyer. Aj did mnage to get a few high spots in, but Booker was definitely putting the rest holds on this thing and offering a more technically sound match up. The two guys looked evenly matched at the midway of this match, but Booker seemed to be one step ahead of Aj Styles, seriously pushing the limits of the former heavyweight champion. Aj Styles was wobbly at this point, creating doubt in many people’s minds as to whether or not he can really beat the big man. Booker and Aj had perfect timing with some high spot reversals, at one point Booker caught Aj coming off the top rope, and it was just perfect timing. The Styles Clash got the better of Booker T and things finally got good for Aj Styles as he is the new Legends Champion!

Backstage, apparently Samoa Joe murdered Scott Steiner? He had that stupid looking knife of his full of blood. Nice huh? Great job TNA writers, allude to the fact that Joe stabbed Steiner, great writing, great stupid writing! I hate Tna sometimes.

Team 3-D defeated Beer Money via count out in a TNA Tag Team Championship match

Team 3-D was the odds on favorite here, as there was no way that TNA would fire one of their veteran tag teams, leaving them without 2 solid workers. It’s not like the WWE would want another run of Team 3-d, considering that both guys are not as slim and beefed up as they were in WWE. Beer Money were not doing well early on in this match, Devon had things going quite well in the onset of this match up. Team 3-D had a lo of good moments in this match up, and Beer Money were definitely getting out wrestled on more than one occasion in this match up. The comedy spots were a bit too much, which was really weird. The match was thrown out, when Beer Money brought a chair in and Team 3-D wins, via disqualification…

Then the match got restarted and Beer Money walked away with a ten count. This match sucked, well the ending sucked. Don West helped a little, and even after Jim Cornette tried to chase down Beer Money, Team 3-D came to Don West and told him to watch his back! Team 3-D got screwed, and this was boring at the end.

Suicide defeated Consequences Creed, Jay Lethal, and The Motor City Machine Guns in a destination x match for the x division championship

This match opened up like it should have, straight forward, fast paced action. The Motor City Machine Guns had the advantage going into this match up, especially since their always in the ring together as a team. It seemed like they were set to win this, considering this match started at 7 pm pst. Obviously there were some high spots, the spots ranged from going outside of the ring to simple top rope action. Suicide was not doing all that well, at least not early on, it seemed that anything he wanted to do was thwarted by someone in the ring. The match up quickly spilled to the outside and Suicide managed a rolling thunder move onto four of his competitors, making for a good overall replay high spot. By the time it was time to do the super electric chair/powerbomb spot, I got tired of this match. Seriously, these matches are just spot fests and there’s very little psychology to them. I know we’re dealing with a match that was supposed to magnify the x-division, but this is getting ridiculous. I guess I’m starting to dislike spot fests, it just seems so obvious to me, a little too obvious. After all the whining I did about this match, it did have a cool ending. Suicide jumped off the top of a pillar onto the middle of the destination x set up, and knocked all competitors off, to win the x-division championship!

Sting defeated Kurt Angle in a World Heavyweight Championship Match

Finally, the main event, and this one started with neither man truly getting the edge. Kurt Angle and Sting started with heavy blows, meanwhile Sting kept knocking Kurt Angle out of the ring at every chance he could. The fight then spilled out to the floor and we finally had a good match going. After a short fight on the floor, we got the rest holds, with Angle trying to hold down Sting in order to wear him out. I really liked the midway point of this match when both men went for the double cross body block. That was definitely something you’d see in the mid 90’s era main event. I can’t appreciate the constant rest holds by Angle. I know that it worked for a lot of technical wrestlers, but those were in combination with their finishing moves. It seems like Angle just wants to slow things down so he can get the Angle Slam. Which he got onto Sting for a two count! Sting missed a Stinger splash, which got him an Angle Slam for his trouble. Kurt’s Moonsault is dead on accurate still, but he couldn’t put Sting away with that either. The Rolling German Suplex’s have to be hurting Angle’s neck, and they were promptly turned into a Scorpion Death Drop, prompting another two count. Double J, for all the feuding he has done, actually didn’t get involved too much, until he got hit with a HUGE lariat from Angle on accident. This prompted Mick Foley to jump in the ring, meanwhile Sting had the Scorpion Death Lock on a tapping Angle. Angle managed to get back into it, meanwhile Jeff Jarrett was still out, but then when Foley failed to count to three Angle kicked him in the nuts! This was rad, Angle finally snapped and he had Jarrett and Foley both knocked out cold! Foley got in the mix and accidentally hit Sting with a Steel Chair! Things were starting to look like Summerslam 1997 all over again! As Angle couldn’t put away Sting, he kept getting angry at Jarrett and started to slap him around a little. That prompted Sting to get the upper hand with a little help from Double J and it was all over! That’s right, Sting once again defeats Kurt Angle and is still the TNA World Heavyweight Champion.

This ppv sucked. This final match wasn’t all that great, and I can’t believe that the TNA ppv crew cost me another forty bucks or so. I hate these guys sometimes. Sting, come on man, Angle? Come on dude…seriously? TNA needs to change things up dramatically.

Tna Impact 3/12/09 Review and Results Final Destination for Main Event Mafia

Kurt Angle started this piece of crap review to much dismay. He is always out there trying to build heat, but he sucks at it now. He tries to call out Jeff Jarrett, and I can’t believe I’m reviewing this. Double J comes down but is stopped by Foley, and Foley came to the ring and told Angle to knock him out. This was another lame attempt at trying to get heat. Angle backed away, and didn’t knock out Foley. Also, no Don West at this point.

Rhino defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir

Sheik Abdul Bashir came out and wrestled the war machine Rhino. This wasn’t a good match at all. It really bored me, as it was slow moving and proved nothing. Rhino won with a weak roll up, and that was that. After the match Sheik Abdul Bashir does a weird prayer thing, which is weird to say the least. This match sucked, terrible match, this match was nothing more than a jobbing.

Matt Morgan and Beer Money defeated Abyss and Team 3-D

This match was an elimination match. Apparently if Team 3-D didn’t win, they would be fired. I think that’s what Tenay was getting at. This was a boring match to me. Matt Morgan was left to fight of Abyss as Team 3-D was eliminated. This was obviously made to preview the ppv match up that is going to happen on Sunday. This, unfortunately, was the best part of this match up. I’m always surprised at how fast Abyss can be at times. Abyss was going to use the tacks, but it didn’t happen, as Matt Morgan hit the Carbon Footprint and it was over. This match sucked. 10:03 pm and only two matches have happened…what a load of crap. Team 3-D is still in action…I think they’ll have a title shot on Sunday.

Don West was leaving before the commercial break. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Don West showed up at one point during this telecast. Folley showed up to take his place for the second half of this show.

Taylor Wilde defeated Madison Rayne

This was cut short. It wasn’t a very good match. This was so bad that if you blinked, you missed the action. The Governor parody is dumb. This match ended in a melee or something. This match sucked, this edition of TNA is totally wrecked at this point.

After the commercial break, Scott Steiner knocked out Mick Foley with a lead pipe. Booker T was distracting him and Steiner ran out with a lead pipe and BOOM, knocked him out. Awesome, huh? Another lame story line for TNA; and maybe I’m just too tired for this, but this is the worst thing I’ve seen in wrestling in a long time. Why does anyone still watch TNA? I do it cause there is no real #2 in professional wrestling today, and it’s sad. Maybe someone will get a real shot at competing with WWE, but it’s probably not going to happen anytime soon. If TNA is the alternative, man, we’re all doomed; all wrestling fans are forced to settle for a terrible, terrible product.

Lethal Consequences & Lax defeated The Motor City Machines Guns and Members of the Main Event Mafia

Quite honestly, this match was terrible. TNA has a way of wasting their program with terrible wrestling. This was it, this is terrible; the good guys win, and that’s the end of that.

Eric Young defeated Rocco

Talk about a terrible piece of crap. This main event had some fat dude named Rocco as Kurt Angle’s pick to wrestle Sting’s pick of Eric Young. I kid you not when I say that this was the worst idea I’ve ever seen. The fat dude, Rocco, is just some fat dude…seriously, just some random fat dude. Eric Young wins, by delivering a huge death valley driver on the big man, and it was over.

Rocco was just some random fat guy. NO, not like Earthquake, when Dino Bravo discovered him. This fat dude is just a fat dude, and he was backed by Kurt Angle; I wanted to fire al the TNA writers because of this.

Foley ran down to fight with Angle. Double J showed up with a chair and hit anything that moved. He then almost knocked out Steiner, but STING protected the idiots. No one in their right mind liked TNA, I know I didn't. TNA SUCKS!
