Tna Impact 4/16/09 Review
Like every good or bad wrestling show, this show started with people talking inside the ring. It was lame. It was just “Do you trust me” crap.
Homicide defeated Chris Sabin and Naito in a triple threat match
This was a triple threat match. It seemed that Sabin and Naito were working together but that ended fast when Sabin hopped up out of delivering a Chin Lock to hit a nice lariat. This was fast paced and good to look at. It was high spot after high spots, but a lot of interesting fluid wrestling. This match was like watching someone play the N64 Wrestling games, because it seemed that this was choreographed by some gamer with a bit of nostalgia. Naito had some very picture perfect wrestling moves, including flyinig lariats and a beautiful bridge suplex. Sabin’s tornado ddt with a Insaguri combination was a highlight of this match up. The 187 off the middle rope ended this one, and it was picture perfect!
There was an interview with double J…lame. ODB had a backstage segment, lame. The Main Event mafia were interviewed.
Taylor Wilde, Awesome Kong, and Raisha Saeed defeated The Beautiful People
This match didn’t even get started. I mean, it did start, but it was too short to make a good match up. The knockout division usually is good, but the last few impact shows it’s been really a slow build. This was a terrible match up, and it ended with Kong’s Implant Buster.
Post match they wanted to cut more hair, and took out Taylor Wilde and Raisha Saeed by sending them face first into the woman’s title. The Beautiful People also sprayed something into Kong’s eye and then knocked her out with the Title Belt and they went ahead and cut her hair! This had to be the ultimate humiliation.
Abyss & Daffney defeated ODB & Cody Deaner
I haven’t seen Daffney in a while, and I like her. She is pretty cool. I mean, she looks cool, I like her better than ODB that’s for sure. They kept playing up that Cody Deaner isn’t a wrestler, but he got in there with Abyss at one point and was basically getting trashed. Abyss gets the win in another short match.
Post match Matt Morgan ran down and beat Abyss up.
Mick Foley tried to give himself, Cactus Jack an Interview. Then Sting came out. It was stupid. This whole thing is dumb. Foley then beat up sting. This feud sucks.
Balls Mahoney showed up! Spike Dudley was there too1 The two former ECW standby’s were getting worked over by Beer Money with chairs and were just getting messed up. They definitely took a page out of ECW’s old playbook. It was pretty cool.
Jeff Jarrett introduced the Fallen Angle Christopher Daniels! That’s right, Christopher Daniels is back! That’s going to be awesome! Christopher Daniels! I marked out huge because he’s one of my favorite wrestlers in recent years.
Christopher Daniels defeated Kurt Angle
This was good match up. Christopher Daniels didn’t really show a whole lot of ring rust in this match up. Kurt Angle was keeping up with a much faster and lighter Christopher Daniels and it was cool over all. The missed Asahi Moonsault from Daniels was impressive, as he landed on his feet! However that was short lived because Angle hit the rolling German suplexes and this match was heating up at this point.
And that was your Impact. This was weird. It kind of just ended with the return of Christopher Daniels and that’s about it. I don’t know what to say about this one, if you like TNA this was like half a good show. There wasn’t a whole lot to it, considering that they are having a ppv this week, I would think that they would’ve been more productive, but nope. It’s nice to see some TNA returns but overall this wasn’t that great of a show. The four disc Jeff Jarrett dvd looks interesting though.

TNA Impact 3/26/09 Results and Review Crap Captains
The opening of the night was an in ring announcement by Jim Cornette, because they are going to have captains chosen for the big Lockdown ppv. This whole segment, was just a big melee. Angle and Jarrett are going to be in the lockdown tonight or something, and that’s all that happened.
Suicide defeated Kiyoshi
This match started out fast paced and carried through with a good interesting overall initial run. Suicide seemed to have Kiyoshi scouted, as he was able to turn moves into counters, but Kiyoshi kept bring out new stuff. It’s weird that the crowd was cheering Suicide, considering he is a relatively unknown wrestler. Kiyoshi was never meant to win this match, and it seemed painfully obvious towards the end of the match up. Suicide finished off Kiyoshi with the Suicide Solution and it was all over. Not the greatest match, but it was adequate enough.
There was a lot of backstage vignettes and random bs at this point. We’re talking about 40 minutes past the hour and we finally get another match up. This is a tough wrestling show to watch.
Velvet Sky & Angelina Love defeated Raisha Saeed & Awesome Kong
I’m not a big fan of the TNA commentating team. They never really focus on the match up at all. They seem to be talking about random crap, and storylines, rather than the match at hand. That’s not to say that this match was a technical classic, but it deserved more attention than the commentating team gave it. The reason why Awesome Kong and Saeed lost was because Awesome Kong didn’t really get into the match.
Post match, the beautiful people tried to cut Awesome Kong’s hair. It didn’t work, and that was that.
Samoa Joe pinned Kurt Angle to win a 20 man gauntlet cage match
The main event was a 20 man gauntlet match inside of a steel cage. This thing was lengthy and interesting to say the least. This is a weird match, and it reminds me of that bunkhouse stampede that NWA had in the mid 80’s. I’ll try to find that match for you guys to watch, but overall this match was like a royal rumble inside a steel cage. While it looks good on paper, it wasn’t really that entertaining to watch on television as it seemed that everyone was basically phoning it in, because of limited space. The final three guys were Kurt Angle, Scott Steiner, and Jeff Jarrett. This is the most predicable thing that could happen! If the last two winners are team captains then when Scott Steiner was eliminated the match should’ve ended. Nope, it didn’t happen….Steiner never left the cage and fought Jeff Jarrett, causing Kurt Angle to roll him up for the pin! Kurt Angle pinned Jarrett and I thought it was over. However, out came Samoa Joe #20 and he dropped Angle on the back of his head, and boom, Samoa Joe is the winner and the second team captain!
I have to give TNA credit, they really gave the main event a lot of time to develop. The main event easily took up 75% of the last hour, and was interesting to watch at times. You knew that the x-division guys weren’t going to win, and you know a bunch of people weren’t going to win, but you stuck with it to see if Jarrett would pull this one off, and he almost did. Angle seems to have forgotten about Sting. Sting wasn’t even on this show wrestling…and why is Foley in the main event for a title shot? What a joke.
This edition of TNA may have been the best edition of Impact in a long time, but that is not saying much, is it? Yep.

TNA Impact 3/19/09 Results and Review Sting What Side Is He On
Here we go, a few days after the big ppv this last weekend, and hopefully it doesn’t completely suck.
The Main Event Mafia started the show. Most notable was Scott Steiner, his face fully covered, was in the background. Kurt Angle started calling out Sting yet again. After a few comments, Kurt Angle called out Jeff Jarrett, who promptly came down and said Angle doesn’t deserve crap! Foley showed up and started to talk crap…they were losing me. Jeff Jarret and Mick Foley will wrestle Sting & Kurt Angle later tonight!
No Limit w/ Kiyoshi defeated The Motor City Machine Guns
This was a good overall International tag team match up. This was fast moving action with little to no psychology. I didn’t mind, considering the language barrier and the sheer amount of great wrestling moves I’ve seen in a long time. The Bridge suplex mid match was picture perfect! The Japanese team of No Limit won this fast match up and it wasn’t half bad. After the match Beer Money ran down and knocked everyone out.
Beer Money called out Team 3-D they are going to wrestle in a cage at the next ppv.
ODB & Taylor Wilde defeated Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed
This match didn’t have enough time to develop. It ended up being kind of boring. The match was rushed and while it had a few spots, it really was rushed, and well, the good guys win again. Or should I say, the good girls? Women? Whatever.
Samoa Joe vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir no contest
This match never happened. Samoa Joe pounced, beat up the ref then took Bashir to the back beating him along the way. We then got thrown into another commercial. Seriously, this wasn’t even worth it.
Aj Styles gets a trophy and some money for winning the Veteran’s championship. Boring.
The Governor defeated Madison Rayne
I’m so sick of this stupid gimmick. I don’t know why they keep pushing this “Palin” gimmick, but it is stupid to me. What makes this worse for me is the fact that The Governor can’t really wrestle all that well. She’s got a few moves, but overall, the beautiful people’s constant interference messed with the timing and dare I say, made it better? Yeah. The Governor pulled out a victory after a quick roll up, creating another boring match up. After the match up, they cut The Governor’s hair. This match felt really rushed, and it seemed like the post match had more in ring psychology than the actual match up! Sad state of affairs for the TNA Knockouts.
Samoa Joe was torturing Sheik Abdul Bashir, hanging him upside down and beating him with a kendo stick. This cleared the FCC? Wow, this is dumb. Samoa Joe used to put on four star matches, now he’s just stupid and psychotic. This is unnecessary, yet they keep pushing it in our faces. Lame.
Jeff Jarrett & Mick Foley defeated Kurt Angle & Sting
This match started with Angle and Jarrett exchanging classic wrestling holds, and Double J proving that he still has it in him to lift himself for a perfect drop kick. Foley was tagged in and you know what? The dude can chain wrestle, not the best chain wrestling I’ve ever seen, it was just good for Foley. Of course, Foley isn’t in the best shape of his career and it showed in this match up. Of course, the ref was knocked out, and so was everyone in the ring except for Jarrett and Angle. Sting got hold of Jarrett’s Guitar, Foley got a Chair and leveled Sting! The ref got down and counted the three, and things just kind of ended with that.
Overall, this edition of TNA Impact wasn’t all that good. TNA needs to strengthen their roster with better matches, less backstage shenanigans and just straight forward wrestling. That’s their strong suit, and yet they don’t use it. Too bad.

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

TNA Impact 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.

I wasn’t interested in this match up at all, but I always enjoy Aj Styles, so I gave it a chance. This match was dominated by the frontline, each one giving some tough shots to Steiner. Steiner however did have some excellent suplexes, but overall this match started out one sided and eventually evened out with the main event mafia taking over midway. After the commercial break the announce team informs us that this match is now a no contest because the four men have now spilled to outside the ring and into the crowd and parking lot! This broke out into a huge brawl back into the ring, and even prompted Mick Foley to come out and get physically involved! That’s right, Foley was in there and out came Socko! That’s right, Foley was out there beating the hell out of the main event mafia, insane indeed.
ODB, Roxxy, Christy Hemme, and Taylor Wilde defeated Raisha Saeed, Sojourner Bolt, Awesome Kong, and Rhaka Khan
The women of tna dressed in their most festive outfits fought each other in a tag team match up that featured all the women in the ring at the same time. This match really lost control fast and the ref had a hard time controlling the action, but it was alright, because the hard camera stayed in position and you saw the better parts of this match up. Eventually things spilled out to the outside of the ring and there was a great high spot from Taylor Wilde, creating an awesome reaction and great position for the knockouts to prove yet again that they are ten times better than the wwe divas! The match came down to Taylor Wilde scoring the pin for her team and once again proving that the TNA knockouts are 100 billion times better than anything that wwe is doing right now with their women’s division.
Kurt Angle vs. Rhino (No Contest)
This was a rematch from the ppv, which makes me want to never ever get another TNA ppv in my lifetime. Seriously, how many times are wrestling companies going to give us these matches free, after the fact? This is stupid. Anyways, this match up was standard to say the least. Angle really was lazy out there, focusing more on trying to antagonize Jeff Jarrett, whom was out at ringside, including spitting in his face! Kurt Angle was trying to draw as much heat as he could, meanwhile Rhino was chasing the former champ to try and get this match over with. If you’ve seen one Kurt Angle match you’ve seen them all, as this match really didn’t poise a lot of new combat for either wrestler involved. This match was interesting to me on many levels, but mostly because I had nothing better to do on my Christmas night, as I had to work in the morning and it doesn’t matter to me if I’m tired the next day. Kurt Angle got the ankle lock submission late in the match, in the middle of the ring, and things looked bad but Angle was sent to the floor right by Double J, and this caused Angle to slap Jeff Jarrett!
This match was thrown out as Jeff Jarrett interfered and attacked Kurt Angle. The backstage area cleared out and the two were separated. This was ok for all intents and purposes but I wasn’t truly convinced. BG James was sucker punched by Angle at the end, and it was all over. I’m tired.

TNA Impact 11/6/08 Review and Results Hitman For The Mafia
The show opens with the Main Event Mafia and an introduction to Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner. He’s the “hitman” for the Mafia.
Booker T & Beer Money defeated Christian & The Motor City Machine Guns
Here we have a six man tag, and I’m not really sure why. I though only WWE perpetually gave us six man tag matches for no apparent reason, and I guess TNA is doing this now too. I know they’ve done it all along but this is the first time I realized it. This match wasn’t too bad, but the ending was kind of stupid to me, a little too much really. The Machine Gun were outside the ring fighting Beer Money while Christian seemed to have things sewn up against Booker T, only to get distracted and then get hit in the head with the TNA Legends belt, and that was that. Booker T pinned Chrisitan Cage.
Matt Morgan & Abyss defeated Tanahashi & Volador, Team 3-D, and Lax
A four way ladder match for a shot at the TNA title, and this was just a huge spot fest. This contest was done Texas Tornado style and each team was in the ring at the same time, as it should be. However, throughout this whole match you didn’t see more than 4 people in the ring at the same time. The best spot was definitely Hernandez jumping out of the ring and getting a face full of ladder as he was 10 feet short of a 12 foot jump. This match seemed to be going fast, but there was a lot of time in between spots spent just setting up the next spot. The whole ring was laid out, and I thought for sure this thing was going to favor Team 3-D somehow, but instead, Abyss climbed to the top of the ladder and pulled down the contract and now they get a shot at the TNA Tag Team Titles!
Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed defeated Taylor Wilde & Rhaka Khan
I wasn’t too sure about this match up, simply because we’ve already seen two tag team matches on the show, even if they were for different reasons. I’m tired of seeing tag matches, honestly, but this wasn’t so bad. Taylor Wilde was the one taking most of the punishment, as Awesome Kong was putting on a wrestling clinic with her, showing her power and prowess. Taylor Wilde was getting worked immediately, and this was most likely because Rhaka Khan can’t really wrestle all that well. Rhaka gets the tag, and she comes in only to chokeslam Taylor Wilde and allow Awesome Kong to deliver the implant buster and Taylor Wilde gets worked in this match up. This is how you do a turn and squash match! Awesome, Taylor Wilde is a true competitor as she takes one heck of a beating in this match up. This is how you do women’s wrestling!
Sting & Kurt Angle defeated Eric Young, Consequences Creed and Jay Lethal
This had squash all over it, seriously, there was no way that these guys were going over on Nash, Sting, and Kurt Angle. OH and thanks TNA ANOTHER six man tag match on the show? Another tag match? Please stop throwing tag matches at me. This was a really quick match and there was not a whole lot to it. I don’t know why I expected more out of TNA because they really screwed me over on this one. Kurt Angle delivered the Angle Slam for the victory as Sting and Nash took care of Lethal and Young on the outside of the ring. This was quick and easy, and a waste of time for anyone watching Tna Impact this week.
Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner defeated Samoa Joe
Finally, a singles match up on TNA Wrestling. Scott Steiner hasn’t been relevant for a long time, but here he’s not half bad. He seems to have lost a considerable amount of weight, and while he still looks large, he doesn’t look as huge as he was in his last WWE run or even his last moments in WCW. He’s still somewhat larger than he was in the early 90’s. Samoa Joe put some great moments in this match even if it was a television match up. I was impressed that Scott Steiner had no problem lifting Joe and throwing him around with some great suplexes, and I was beginning to turn my opinion a little in the early goings of this match up. Best part of this match up was when Joe was running the ropes he missed Scott Steiner only to jump out of the ring with a suicide dive into Kevin Nash who was standing outside of the ring! On returning into the ring though, Scott Steiner knocked him out with a pair of Brass Knuckles, and it was all over!

TNA Impact 10/9/08 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 Results 9/4/08 and Review: Sting vs. Fans
The opening of the show had Kurt Angle and Booker T in the ring mouthing off about how no one respects them for paving the way, similar to the Sting interview from last week. They of course, get interrupted by none other than Christian Cage and he too starts mouthing off, and like any good opener, they all brawl outside and inside the ring. Aj Styles runs out for the save, only to get Jim Cornette outside to make sure that Booker and Kurt are Banned from ringside during the four ways to glory qualifying match!
I hate Mike Tenay. He used to be “the professor” of wcw and had a lot of insight into the Lucha Libre that was permeating in the show, but here he just repeats the obvious, and basically reads a script. I don’t care if the announcers have scripts, but I am annoyed when the announcers are telling me the future of what a wrestler is going to say, or how things are going to play out. There is NO suspsense in TNA, because Tenay spoils any sort of surprise.
Samoa Joe Interview:
This thing sucks. Joe doesn’t need to look like a whiny champion, he just needs to drop people to the floor and prove that he’s not just a fat champion. He doesn’t need to pick fights with Sting or Kevin Nash, he needs to keep his mouth shut and just beat down anyone that comes out.
Rough Cut Consequences Creed:
Another inside look into Consequences Creed, and you know what? I don’t care. I don’t care about his background just yet. They need to wait for him to be a bigger superstar, then release this as a dvd or something. I don’t need to hear about a new guy, I want to hear from a bigger superstar, and if these are true shoots, they could make some money. This was lame. I’ll just leave it at that.
Sheik Bashir Interview:
This is stupid. I’m not sure that I believe anything this guy says just yet either. He’s too young of a star in TNA. I’m not talking about age, I’m talking about his career in TNA, which has what? Two matches or so? They don’t need an interview segment with this guy just yet, he needs more matches and then we can rally against him, instead of just having him be a scapegoat for American patriotism in wrestling. Sheik talks about how America stole things from him and how he hates America, the same gimmick that other Middle Eastern wrestlers had.
Consequences Creed defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
Sheik had full control of this match early on, and there was a lot of offense for such a shortly advertised match up. This is of course a response to the x-division title shot that Creed was gunning for, but Sheik interfered, causing this match up to be set up. This match took a turn for Creed as he started to go on a roll with his usual move set and it looked as though Consequences Creed was en route to win, but out of nowhere Sheik rolls up Creed, and uses the ropes to get the win!
However, the fans were booing the crap out of Sheik, and the Ref overturns the results, and restarts the match!
The match then just was another quick reversal, a sunset flip roll up and while Sheik firmly had his hands on the rope, the ref kicked his hands out and Sheik loses this match to Creed and the chance to go after the X-Division title at the next ppv.
Post match, Sheik slaps the Referee, but he starts to fight back, and goes crazy on Sheik. This ref is super good too, and makes Sheik look like an idiot, because he gets no offense in, and the crowd goes crazy.
Kevin Nash interview:
Nash offers nothing new. He says he wants to talk to Joe. Nash is way past his prime, even on the mic, he’s way past his prime.
The Prince Justice Brotherhood promo:
The superheroes are backstage with Beer Money and it’s hilarious. Curry Man is just awesome, they have a major superstar there, and I’m not sure why he’s not getting more of a push. However, the two factions start fighting and security just so happens to be right there for the save. Things get ugly, and we cut to commercial.
Beautiful People Promo:
The Beautiful People are backstage making stupid statements, and say they are going to have a beauty contest at the next ppv. I still think that the Beautiful People resemble porno actresses instead of wrestlers, but that’s just me.
Beer Money defeated Shark Boy & Super Eric
Curry Man was suppose to be in this match, however, he didn’t show up. The camera crew find him in the back getting cornered by Christy Hemme, and Shark Boy takes his place in this match. Beer Money starts off this match strong, and I’m glad that TNA is pushing these guys well. I’m glad to see that the tna tag team champions aren’t just jobbing to random people, these guys are a great team and they are really proving that tag team divisions can be reliable sources for great wrestling. This match was basically a squash match, but Beer Money looked great, and like a true tag team, true champions!
It’s also worth noting that in the middle of the match, the camera crew checked up on Curry man and he was getting stomped out by The Rock & Roll Infection.
Post match, Hernandez comes through and Beer Money flee to the outside. However, Homicide shows up and starts to rail against Beer Money, and he cleans house!
Abyss defeated Johnny Devine
This was cool, Abyss comes out swinging and it was an awesome match. Abyss basically annihilates Devine, and while I usually hate squash matches, this was entertaining to me. I assume this is how Kane would be if he stepped up his game. Abyss basically kills Devine with some heavy moves, seriously heavy.
The match didn’t end as far as I could see, because Team 3-D came down and interfered with the match up. Then Matt Morgan ran down to save Abyss, and cleared things up.
I was hoping for more insight into this, but instead we get to see ODB trying to take a dump? Yeah, she runs to the bathroom and takes a dump. I wish I was kidding.
ODB defeated Raisha Saeed
ODB puts on a good show against Raisha, and I was impressed that once again, TNA’s women’s division just makes for a great match up. This is the best part of TNA Impact, because the majority of the show is not that great. These women really put it all on the line in the ring and are NOT divas at all, TNA’s women division is the best part of being a professional wrestling fan.
ODB edges out Saeed and wins this grudge match.
Post match, ODB tries to demask Raisha and has no major luck until they are off camera. Awesome Kong comes flying out of the backstage area and beats down ODB, delivering the implant buster on her. Roxie comes out for the save but is eventually beaten down, and Roxie gets dropped by Kong with the Awesome Bomb onto a chair, and security runs through to help. The Tna women’s division is the greatest thing to happen to Tna ever.
AJ Styles Interview:
Aj Styles runs his mouth and calls out Sting, then calls out Christian. I must admit, this was the most whiny interview I’ve seen in my years of wrestling viewing. Aj Styles says that Sting has done nothing to deserve respect and that he’s always on the road away from his kids.
Uh….you mean wrestling in Florida means he’s away from his family? Wouldn’t he just buy a house in Florida? I mean, 80% of TNA shows are in FLORIDA! Aj is an idiot, I don’t buy this promo, and really don’t care for Aj’s whining. Shut up, go out there and beat down Christian, and let Sting be…he’s an idiot too.
Christian Cage defeated Aj Styles
This was a good back an forth match up. I didn’t know who to root for, as both men were putting on a clinic of pure wrestling ethos. Neither man was getting the clear cut edge, and both were great in ring. Christian has really improved since he left WWE a while ago, and Aj still has some amazing aerial maneuvers. This match was ppv quality, and if you missed it, go and see it. The best spot is definitely the reversal of the superplex into Christian’s frog splash. It took a split second, but if you caught it, you had to be impressed with how Christian executed that move. Aj definitely looked like the winner towards the end, but right when things were going to go in his favor, the referee gets knocked out. Frank Trigg runs out with a kendo stick and knocks out AJ Styles, causing Christian Cage to win this match and qualify for the main event at the ppv, and now he gets another shot at the TNA championship belt.
Sting Promo:
Sting comes out and cuts a face promo? Joe comes out and confronts Sting, and then Kevin Nash comes out too. I’m not sure where TNA was going with this, but I had my ideas, and they weren’t entertaining. Sting hit Joe with the bat and then hits the Stinger death drop on Joe! Jeff Jarrett’s music hits, only to get cut off by Sting, and the show ends horribly.
TNA Impact Results 9/4/08
Consequences Creed defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
Beer Money defeated Shark Boy & Super Eric
Abyss defeated Johnny Devine
ODB defeated Raisha Saeed
Christian Cage defeated Aj Styles
Impact wasn’t half bad. I do still think that Impact could be better without all the promo’s and random interviews. However, there are some great matches on this show. There were at least three good quality matches, and then there was a lot of stupid things. The TNA Knock outs are awesome! Overall, not a bad show.

I don’t care if the announcers have scripts, but I am annoyed when the announcers are telling me the future of what a wrestler is going to say, or how things are going to play out. There is NO suspsense in TNA, because Tenay spoils any sort of surprise.
Samoa Joe Interview:
This thing sucks. Joe doesn’t need to look like a whiny champion, he just needs to drop people to the floor and prove that he’s not just a fat champion. He doesn’t need to pick fights with Sting or Kevin Nash, he needs to keep his mouth shut and just beat down anyone that comes out.
Rough Cut Consequences Creed:
Another inside look into Consequences Creed, and you know what? I don’t care. I don’t care about his background just yet. They need to wait for him to be a bigger superstar, then release this as a dvd or something. I don’t need to hear about a new guy, I want to hear from a bigger superstar, and if these are true shoots, they could make some money. This was lame. I’ll just leave it at that.
Sheik Bashir Interview:
This is stupid. I’m not sure that I believe anything this guy says just yet either. He’s too young of a star in TNA. I’m not talking about age, I’m talking about his career in TNA, which has what? Two matches or so? They don’t need an interview segment with this guy just yet, he needs more matches and then we can rally against him, instead of just having him be a scapegoat for American patriotism in wrestling. Sheik talks about how America stole things from him and how he hates America, the same gimmick that other Middle Eastern wrestlers had.
Consequences Creed defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
Sheik had full control of this match early on, and there was a lot of offense for such a shortly advertised match up. This is of course a response to the x-division title shot that Creed was gunning for, but Sheik interfered, causing this match up to be set up. This match took a turn for Creed as he started to go on a roll with his usual move set and it looked as though Consequences Creed was en route to win, but out of nowhere Sheik rolls up Creed, and uses the ropes to get the win!
However, the fans were booing the crap out of Sheik, and the Ref overturns the results, and restarts the match!
The match then just was another quick reversal, a sunset flip roll up and while Sheik firmly had his hands on the rope, the ref kicked his hands out and Sheik loses this match to Creed and the chance to go after the X-Division title at the next ppv.
Post match, Sheik slaps the Referee, but he starts to fight back, and goes crazy on Sheik. This ref is super good too, and makes Sheik look like an idiot, because he gets no offense in, and the crowd goes crazy.
Kevin Nash interview:
Nash offers nothing new. He says he wants to talk to Joe. Nash is way past his prime, even on the mic, he’s way past his prime.
The Prince Justice Brotherhood promo:
The superheroes are backstage with Beer Money and it’s hilarious. Curry Man is just awesome, they have a major superstar there, and I’m not sure why he’s not getting more of a push. However, the two factions start fighting and security just so happens to be right there for the save. Things get ugly, and we cut to commercial.
Beautiful People Promo:
The Beautiful People are backstage making stupid statements, and say they are going to have a beauty contest at the next ppv. I still think that the Beautiful People resemble porno actresses instead of wrestlers, but that’s just me.
Beer Money defeated Shark Boy & Super Eric
Curry Man was suppose to be in this match, however, he didn’t show up. The camera crew find him in the back getting cornered by Christy Hemme, and Shark Boy takes his place in this match. Beer Money starts off this match strong, and I’m glad that TNA is pushing these guys well. I’m glad to see that the tna tag team champions aren’t just jobbing to random people, these guys are a great team and they are really proving that tag team divisions can be reliable sources for great wrestling. This match was basically a squash match, but Beer Money looked great, and like a true tag team, true champions!
It’s also worth noting that in the middle of the match, the camera crew checked up on Curry man and he was getting stomped out by The Rock & Roll Infection.
Post match, Hernandez comes through and Beer Money flee to the outside. However, Homicide shows up and starts to rail against Beer Money, and he cleans house!
Abyss defeated Johnny Devine
This was cool, Abyss comes out swinging and it was an awesome match. Abyss basically annihilates Devine, and while I usually hate squash matches, this was entertaining to me. I assume this is how Kane would be if he stepped up his game. Abyss basically kills Devine with some heavy moves, seriously heavy.
The match didn’t end as far as I could see, because Team 3-D came down and interfered with the match up. Then Matt Morgan ran down to save Abyss, and cleared things up.
I was hoping for more insight into this, but instead we get to see ODB trying to take a dump? Yeah, she runs to the bathroom and takes a dump. I wish I was kidding.
ODB defeated Raisha Saeed
ODB puts on a good show against Raisha, and I was impressed that once again, TNA’s women’s division just makes for a great match up. This is the best part of TNA Impact, because the majority of the show is not that great. These women really put it all on the line in the ring and are NOT divas at all, TNA’s women division is the best part of being a professional wrestling fan.
ODB edges out Saeed and wins this grudge match.
Post match, ODB tries to demask Raisha and has no major luck until they are off camera. Awesome Kong comes flying out of the backstage area and beats down ODB, delivering the implant buster on her. Roxie comes out for the save but is eventually beaten down, and Roxie gets dropped by Kong with the Awesome Bomb onto a chair, and security runs through to help. The Tna women’s division is the greatest thing to happen to Tna ever.
AJ Styles Interview:
Aj Styles runs his mouth and calls out Sting, then calls out Christian. I must admit, this was the most whiny interview I’ve seen in my years of wrestling viewing. Aj Styles says that Sting has done nothing to deserve respect and that he’s always on the road away from his kids.
Uh….you mean wrestling in Florida means he’s away from his family? Wouldn’t he just buy a house in Florida? I mean, 80% of TNA shows are in FLORIDA! Aj is an idiot, I don’t buy this promo, and really don’t care for Aj’s whining. Shut up, go out there and beat down Christian, and let Sting be…he’s an idiot too.
Christian Cage defeated Aj Styles
This was a good back an forth match up. I didn’t know who to root for, as both men were putting on a clinic of pure wrestling ethos. Neither man was getting the clear cut edge, and both were great in ring. Christian has really improved since he left WWE a while ago, and Aj still has some amazing aerial maneuvers. This match was ppv quality, and if you missed it, go and see it. The best spot is definitely the reversal of the superplex into Christian’s frog splash. It took a split second, but if you caught it, you had to be impressed with how Christian executed that move. Aj definitely looked like the winner towards the end, but right when things were going to go in his favor, the referee gets knocked out. Frank Trigg runs out with a kendo stick and knocks out AJ Styles, causing Christian Cage to win this match and qualify for the main event at the ppv, and now he gets another shot at the TNA championship belt.
Sting Promo:
Sting comes out and cuts a face promo? Joe comes out and confronts Sting, and then Kevin Nash comes out too. I’m not sure where TNA was going with this, but I had my ideas, and they weren’t entertaining. Sting hit Joe with the bat and then hits the Stinger death drop on Joe! Jeff Jarrett’s music hits, only to get cut off by Sting, and the show ends horribly.
TNA Impact Results 9/4/08
Consequences Creed defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
Beer Money defeated Shark Boy & Super Eric
Abyss defeated Johnny Devine
ODB defeated Raisha Saeed
Christian Cage defeated Aj Styles
Impact wasn’t half bad. I do still think that Impact could be better without all the promo’s and random interviews. However, there are some great matches on this show. There were at least three good quality matches, and then there was a lot of stupid things. The TNA Knock outs are awesome! Overall, not a bad show.
