TNA Impact 9/2/09 Review
Sting defeated Rhino
I’m not sure why these two started the show, but they sure did, Sting must not be as big as he used to be. Sting started this match fresh and fast, he even got the Scorpion Death Lock early on. The first thing I noticed was don West is out and that’s rad. Oh and this match had a of rest holds. Sting hit his Scorpion Death Lock and won the match, I think…Rhino beat up Sting after the match.
Aj Styles defeated Chris Sabin
Not sure why Styles was in the second match, it seemed boring to me. Sabin sucks, that’s for sure. Styles literally outmatched Sabin at every turn, and just had his way with the tag team specialist. At least for the most part, there was definitely an interesting situation of sorts. Sabin should get credit though, he kept kicking out of a lot of the offense Styles kept throwing at him, it was an interesting bout to say the least. It’s an interesting overall match, but nothing to write home about. Styles is quite good, even if he’s only the second match.
Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels talked about their upcoming match, it was boring to me, and to you probably too.
Doug Williams defeated Suicide
Overall, this match didn’t do a whole lot for me. Sure Suicide was fast at times, but it was Doug Williams that seemed to have his timing down. Suicide kept things fresh, but overall, Williams had his number in the realms of harder offense. Suicide turned things around for a second or two, but I never thought he had a shot, even after a nice spring board dropkick. Putting moves together, into a string, was ok, but overall I think Suicide is a lame guy. The Black Pope came down to ringside and dropped him, Suicide then tried to get back into the ring, but ran right into Williams for a rolling German Suplex and pin. Impressive end, that’s for sure. That ending made the match, wow, I haven’t seen such a nice set up in a long time.
Christy Hemme & Tara defeated Sojo Bolt & Hamada
Christy Hemme has such a huge forehead, it’s hilarious to me. Hamada, I assumed would be better, however she was sloppy against Tara. Tara as well seemed slow and winded for once, and I wasn’t sure what was wrong with her in this match. Hemme was doing some ok offense, but overall didn’t really put much effort into this match. Sojo Bolt seemed poised to make a better match than anyone else, because Hamada, Tara, and Hemme were not doing so well in the timing department. After the commercial break Tara and Hemme got their act together, but man, this match was so sloppy. Tara hit the Widow’s Peak and this match was over…finally.
Hernandez defeated Homicide
These two, former tag team partners, fought each other straight up. TNA took a page out of the WWE tag team division here, putting former team mates up against one another, breaking up the team in the process. Overall, it was Hernandez that was putting the boots to Homicide, with power moves over Homicide’s quickness. While Homicide hit a lot of good momentary offensive moves, it was Hernandez that delivered the pinfall victory after a great slam. Not a bad match, but not necessarily a good one either.
Aj Styles defeated Doug Williams
Williams can’t talk on the mic, that’s for sure. Doug Williams had this match well in tow, and Aj Styles was getting punished for sure. Williams went from big power moves to rest holds, forcing Styles to really try to get his bearings back into this match up. Williams was one step ahead of Styles for a good portion of this match up, until Aj started to make a comeback, creating a bit of fan fare. Aj Styles won the match, and this match was a bit boring to me.
Sting defeated Hernandez via dq
Sting was getting worked by Hernandez, easily handing Sting a beating, and creating a good overall match, early on; not a bad way to end the show. However, the match really got weird when Homicide attacked Sting on the outside. This interference cost the big man the match.
It wasn’t Homicide, it was Erik Young all along! Then we went to another commercial.
The end of the show sucked. It was basically another WCW Nitro ending. The World Elite, and others ended up in a beat down, that’s about it. It was a melee and that was the end of the show. TNA sucks.

TNA Impact 8/13/09 Results and Review More WCW Cloning
TNA Impact 8/13/09 Results
Chrsty Hemme defeated Sojourner Bolt
Hernandez defeated Doug Williams
Erik Young & Sheik Abdul Bashir defeated Jesse Neil & Rhino
ODB & Tara defeated Awesome Kong & Angelina Love
Scott Steiner defeated Brother Ray in a no dq match
Matt Morgan defeated Aj Styles
TNA Impact 8/13/09 Review
We opened up with a match right away, which could spell disaster, since it was a knockouts match.
Chrsty Hemme defeated Sojourner Bolt
This match was awkward, Hemme was making her return to the ring after a long absence, and she showed some Ring Rust during this match up. Bolt was definitely in control overall, and she was wild in ring, looking sloppy in regards to her execution of her moves. The worst though, was a botched back body drop that had Bolt land on her neck! It looked horrible, and it was obvious that she was loopy afterwards. Christ Hemme won with a Fire Crotch Guillotine for the three count. This was one of the sloppiest women’s match I’ve ever seen.
Hernandez defeated Doug Williams
Hernandez one again was trying to prove that he was a solid single’s wrester, much like many other former tag team specialists. He was in full control early on, hitting some major high spots, and heavy hitting moves. The best of course was his delayed vertical suplex, which had Williams down and out. Williams came back for a few moments, but it wasn’t long, as Super Mex hit the sit out Powerbomb and won the match.
Post match the British Invasion attacked, and Hernandez was in control until Big Rob hit him in the face with a steel brief case.
Erik Young & Sheik Abdul Bashir defeated Jesse Neil & Rhino
TNA is notorious for making matches that make no sense, and are in no way indicative of a further plot point or storyline. That’s ok, if the matches are great, as WWF did in the old days. These mash up tag matches with guys that aren’t on tv often, is NOT something that I’m a fan of. When’s the last time we saw Jesse Neil and Rhino? Seriously, we haven’t seen these two in so long, that at this point I don’t care about them, and they perform like jobbers. With that said, Erik Young and Bashir were putting the boots to Neil and were in full control for the majority of the match. In fact, Rhino was never tagged into this match, and lost the match for his team. Neil is NOT advancing, much like Maven in WWE. This match sucked. I guess Rhino and Neil might split sooner than later. Especially since Rhino gored Neil.
ODB & Tara defeated Awesome Kong & Angelina Love
This match wasn’t that ood opening up, but then the heat got turned on. ODB and Tara went to the top rope, and this spelled disaster. ODB jumped off and was caught by Awesome Kong and others. Tara leaped of thee to top and The Beautiful People didn’t catch her as she landed, and I kid you not, Head first into the concrete floor! Tara was clutching her head as we went to commercial break, and it looked terrible. I’m not sure if she’s going to be ok or not, but she really took a hit to the floor, face first off the top rope! Cody Deaner at one point was ready to punch Awesome Kong, but instead he kissed Awesome Kong! Kong then brought him into the ring and received The Awesome Bomb! Immediately afterwards, Tara rolled up Awesome Kong and won this match for her team. This match was boring, but Tara’s fall was great.
Scott Steiner defeated Brother Ray in a no dq match
These two put on an ok match up. Steiner is still carrying too much weight, and it showed as the match went on. He opened up fast, trying really hard to bump, but as ray put on some heavier offense, he started to slow down and it was obvious he was being out wrestled by what seems like a “fatter” man. Booker T and Brother Devon got involved, then the British Invasion ran down to distract Team 3D and that’s when Steiner threw Brother Ray through a table and pinned him for the win. This match was terrible, but not the worst I’ve seen ever.
Mick Foley and Kevin Nash had a contract signing, and I was waiting for this thin to turn south, it never happened. Foley and Nash had the most boring contract signing ever, with neither man fighting the other or breaking the table. The whole purpose of this signing was to waste my time. Thanks TNA, for ruining things for me, You guys are really a joke at this point.
Matt Morgan defeated Aj Styles
I’ve already seen this match twice, and each time it wasn’t half bad. This one though? This match just seemed forced at times, with Aj purposely giving a half step to Matt Morgan. Was he saving energy? I’m not sure, but Aj Styles spent most of this match getting worked over by Matt Morgan, and Morgan for once looked completely dominant. No longer is he the stuttering giant from WWE, he was pummeling Styles with heavy moves, including a picture perfect fallaway slam, which brought forth shades of Scott Hall aka Razor Ramon! Morgan made a mistake, and Styles capitalized. Morgan even tried to go to the top rope, but was fought tooth and nail by Styles. Morgan got hit with a huge Pele, and fell off the middle rope, which was actually a cool move, but Styles could not win. After a springboard went awry, Styles got nailed in the face with the Carbon Footprint and pinned Styles! Morgan will go on to face Angle and Sting in the title match.
Post match, The Main Event Mafia came down to celebrate.

Suicide defeated Amazing Red
Doug Williams defeated Cody Deaner in a Ladder Match
Angelina Love defeated Sojourner Bolt
Jeff Jarrett defeated Eric Young
Aj Styles defeated Christopher Daniels
TNA Impact 5/28/09 Review
Suicide defeated Amazing Red
Suicide apparently gives title shots to anyone that asks, not necessarily the next in line. Amazing Red gets a shot at the title after making a comeback, but you just have to go with this lame out of the blue booking, it is TNA after all. Did you know Kaz is Suicide? I just wanted to throw that out there. I heard that Christopher Daniels was under the mask for a little while, but it’s Kaz. As for this match, Suicide was totally controlling Amazing Red, and while Red did put down some nice comeback attempts, Suicide just out classed his opponent on every turn. I hate Don West, just another FYI.
The Main Event Mafia was in ring and Sting talked about women being banned from ringside. Lame. Then he talked about random crap until Samoa Joe said he was going to kill Kurt Angle. Terrible Segment, that led to Mick Foley backstage to make assumption that Jeff Jarrett is going to be fired sooner than later? Once again, stupid.
Doug Williams defeated Cody Deaner in a Ladder Match
This match was a terrible match up. Deaner had this case basically, and took a nasty fall on the outside towards the end. Seriously, this fall was a classic, but other than that, this match sucked. It was a ladder match for Homicide’s case…which is stolen at this point. Doug Wiliams and Cody Deaner nearly destroyed my love for ladder matches. However, Deaner’s massive fall and nearly breaking his neck made me not hate thi match too much.
Stevie Richards did a random in ring Therapy Session with Abyss that bored me to death. Until Raven showed up! That’s right, RAVEN, SCOTT LEVY, MY FAVORITE ECW/WCW/WWE superstar is back in action with his cut off jean shorts and nevermind…RAVEN is back! He beat the crap out of Abyss with a kendo stick. BIG STEVIE COOL AND RAVEN BACK TOGETHER AGAIN!
Remember when they had that double Dog Collar Match? Against the Pit Bulls, that match was insane, and the two went through like 90 tables, I had to mark out like a school girl, I had to, it was rad to see Raven, back. He was lighter and looked in good enough shape.
Angelina Love defeated Sojourner Bolt
The whole crew of The Beautiful people were out at ringside in this match. I know it’s bad to think this, but I couldn’t help but wonder if cute kip is banging all of them! I mean, some pornstar looking chicks and him? It could happen. But I hear that one of them is going out with Gregory Helms…I digress. This match started out fast paced and somewhat interesting, but the screeching cats outside of the ring really made for a terrible sound experience. This match was so short that by the time I clicked a random link on a site, the match was done. Not that I was doing other things while this match was on….This match was easy for Angelina Love as she only had to wrestle for a few moments. Bolt threw some shots in, but overall this match kind of sucked. Admit it.
Cute Kip got thrown out of The Beautiful People and guess who came down to take care of them? VICTORIA! I knew it was going to happen, but I still marked out huge. Victoria is still hot…I like her. The WIDOW’s PEAK got a nice pop…and wow…Victoria is hot without all that spandex…I like her…***DROOLS****
Jeff Jarrett defeated Eric Young
Did anyone really think that Eric Young was going to win this match? I didn’t. Eric Young did put up a good match with Jeff Jarrett, who was supposedly battling an injury. This match sucked, it was terrible, seriously. Eric Young lossed in less than ten minutes, this wasn’t a war, this was a piece of junk. Jarrett rolled over Eric Young for no apparent reason.
Post match Eric Young attacked Jeff Jarrett, turning him Heel? Whatever. Eric Young sucks.
At this point in TNA Team 3D was giving a giant check to Beer Money…oh and a trophy too. This was a stupid segment.
Aj Styles defeated Christopher Daniels
Well if anyone could put on a good match it’s these two wrestlers. I was always impressed with their battles for the X-Division belt, but I wasn’t impressed by this match. Sure there were moments that were good, as these two are amazing when working together, but they had time constraints and it just wasn’t as impressive to me. It just seemed like they were going through the motions, and I was predicting that Styles would win, since Daniels isn’t in the hunt for the world title at all. Daniels went for The Angel’s Wings but Styles rolled through or a quick win with a……ROLL UP! FU TNA two roll up wins in a row? Thanks TNA thanks…for nothing!
OH but, guess who’s back too?
SHANE DOUGLAS! That’s right, SHANE DOUGLAS shows up and decks Christopher Daniels! That’s kind of cool, I guess. Douglas looks fat.

Tna Impact 4/22/09 Results and Review The Foley Era Begins Again
Tna Impact 4/22/09 Results
Beer Money defeated Lethal Consequences
Sojourner Bolt defeated Taylor Wilde Ladder Match
Aj Styles defeated Kevin Nash via Disqualifications
Outlaw Jethro Holliday & Eric Young defeated No Limit
Jeff Jarrett Scott Steiner
Tna Impact 4/22/09 Review
I woke up with a stuffy nose and I didn’t want to review TNA. My ears were clogged so I had to turn up the volume a lot more than I wanted, but I managed to get things in order.
The show opened with Mick Foley and Jeff Jarrett in ring. Foley tried to inspire Jeff Jarrett and made a match for him. This segment was weird because Foley is activating the role of general manager and his role as Champion, which presents a conflict of interest in my opinion. However, no one cares, so we’ll move on.
Beer Money defeated Lethal Consequences
A new tag team tournament was announced and Beer Money was the first team out. Lethal Consequences came out and these two teams put on one heck of a tag team showcase. From tandem moves to high spots, this match had it al in a short time. I wish more tag teams were created to stay together like Beer Money has in TNA. They are definitely a major throwback to the 1980’s longevity that was seen in the Tag team era. The match was good, and for once I thought that TNA had hope for a brighter future. As long as they keep pushing their tag teams in this manner, we can see a great thing happen. Beer Money chasing the belts is a nice fit in this wrestling promotion. Beer Money gets the win, by teaming up on Lethal and hitting him with their double finishing move.
Sojourner Bolt defeated Taylor Wilde Ladder Match
Now this I can get behind all day. This match was a ladder match for a title shot. Back suplex off the ladder from Sojourner was great. Sojourner Bolt took out Brass Knuckles! The two women went back and forth in this match up, and Bolt was getting the worse of it. Bolt hit Taylor Wilde in the face with some Brass Knuckles and this match was over. This match was going good, but this match was too short, and the match didn’t develop as well as I thought it would. Overall, good stuff, I liked the use of Brass Knuckles.
Aj Styles defeated Kevin Nash via Disqualifications
Nash actually was in ring wrestling! I haven’t seen this much vigor out of Nash in a long time. Even the weekend ppv match wasn’t all that great. Nash was dominant for the most part of this match, and styles didn’t hit as hard as he usually does, and he was trying to keep things paced in his favor. Nash got hit with Pele and I thought it was over. Nash was really slow late on in the match, as if he legitimately was tired. Aj Styles then got to shine with some highspots, only to miss. Rudy Charles threw the match out and disqualified Kevin Nash when Booker T interfered, and I hated the ending. Lame.
Outlaw Jethro Holliday & Eric Young defeated No Limit
TREVOR MURDOCH shows up! He’s in this tag team tournament! That’s right former WWE star Trevor Murdoch was in this match up! Eric Young teamed up with him for this match up. This match didn’t have a lot of stellar wrestling, Young and Holliday thought managed to get some good shots in. It was a good overall showdown, and it ended with Eric Young winning with a nice crucifix pin.
Jeff Jarrett Scott Steiner
Mick Foley was on color commentary and this was a hilarious match. This match up was just another hardcore match, and it wasn’t half bad. The plunder was all over the place, and I had to mark out huge for the suplex on a trashcan from Steiner to Jarrett. Scott Steiner’s huge back suplex off the top rope was insane! Jarrett’s Electric chair towards the end was cool, but it seemed a bit overkill. Jarrett hits the guitar shot on Steiner, then The Stroke, and Jarrett pins Steiner clean…well…as clean as you can get in a hardcore match.

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 Impact 2/11/09 Results and Review Post Against All Odds
Team 3D defeated Sting & Kurt Angle
This was essentially what we saw at the ppv match up this past weekend. Only this time it wasn’t for the TNA heavyweight championship. Mid way through this match Kurt Angle and Sting started shoving each other. Then Kurt Angle refused to tag in Sting. Sting had to try and wrestle Team 3-D by himself. Kurt Angle was forced into the match and Team 3-D rolled him up for the win. Team 3-D wins.
Kurt Angle and Sting started fighting each other, and the rest of the Main Event Mafia came in and broke it up. Kurt angle then gets on the mic and starts running his mouth, about how he was suppose to win the title at Against All Odds. Jeff Jarrett comes out nd starts yelling at Kurt. Kurt Angle claims that Sting will lay down for him later on tonight.
TNA is trying to be WCW 2000. This same storyline happened back then.
Aj Styles and Booker T Brawled backstage in a terrible locker room fight. Remember when Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan had that huge blow out at Saturday Night’s Main Event? Now that was a locker room brawl.
Scott Steiner defeated Petey William in a head dress on a pole match
I hate matches that involve something on a pole. We saw this match on PPV this Sunday, and it wasn’t that great then either. This time there is a head dress on a pole, and is really looking stupid to m. Steiner basically controlled this match up completely. Williams gets a few shots in towards the middle of the match up. Steiner looked like he might lose, but nope, Petey Williams get beat when Steiner gives Williams a nice back suplex off the middle rope.
Sojourner Bolt won a knockouts gauntlet
I don’t like the way that TNA does gauntlet matches. This match was essentially a battle royal after a while. This match was interesting for a few moments, but over all it was sub standard. The knockouts are good, but they can’t carry this type of match, at least not for me. I guess it doesn’t help that I had to take a dump during the match. Sojourner Bolt wins and gets a shot at the knockout titles.
Then my dvr crapped out on me. Seriously, the dvr took a dump and I couldn’t watch the rest of the show.
It was getting good though.

TNA Impact 1/23/09 Results and Review The End of the Original
TNA Impact came blazing through their 1/23/09 edition, and there was some good matches lined up.
Alex Shelley defeated Sonjay Dutt, Sheik Abdul Bashir, and Chris Sabin
TNA seems to love these style matches, where the titles are on the line in a cluster of a match with several opponents. These matches are usually high spot after high spot, with little or no psychology to speak of. This match was fast paced, and it did not appear that any one person had a clear advantage over the other. Booker T’s wife came down the ramp and was at ringside, which seemed odd. Shelley and Dutt put on a good showing in this match up and Sabin was helping Shelley retain in various moments of this match up. Shelley rolled up an opponent into an odd pinning situation and won this match, retaining his X Division title.
ODB defeated Sojourner Bolt via disqualification
Bolt started this match by attacking ODB’s leg, trying to isolate a body part, just like classic technical wrestlers of the past would do. ODB was getting the upper hand towards the end of this match up, but Awesome Kong came out and caused the disqualification. Kong hit the implant buster and ODB was out cold. Roxxi and Taylor Wilde came out for the save.
Booker T & Scott Steiner defeated Eric Young & Petey Williams
This was an interesting match up. Williams and Young really pushed things in t his math up and it looked like the main event mafia wasn’t that good after all. Steiner was bumping a lot more than usual. Booker T of course wasn’t going to let the win occur and really caused the break up of a lot of different pinning combinations. This was an elimination style tag team match, and after Eric Young was eliminated it was all downhill for Petey Williams. The main event mafia wins again.
Beer Money defeated Matt Morgan and Abyss in a First Blood Match
First blood matches are dumb to me. I used to like them back when I was younger, but that was only because there were some compelling fights that deserved it. This match didn’t really deserve that gimmick, and especially not on television for free. Maybe, and this is a low maybe, it might be worthwhile on a ppv. Even after heavy shots with chairs, no one was bleeding at all. Matt Morgan was ready to hit Beer Money with a chair and swerved everyone, he hit Abyss square in the face with a big chair shot, prompting Abyss to bleed. Matt Morgan has turned on Abyss, in a swerve that we saw coming for week!
Kurt Angle defeated Aj Styles in a Tables Match
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles fought in a Tables match up at the end of Impact. I wasn’t sure who would win this one, but it was good none the less. Aj Styles flew off the ring apron and Angle was immediately winded. This match was interesting to say the least, as the two have wrestled each other many different times. Kurt Angle was definitely the aggressor towards the end of this match up, forcing Aj Styles to try and comeback for the win. They eventually set up table and Angle took a nut shot onto a table sideways that looked bad. Styles built some momentum towards the end of the match, and the crowd was firmly behind him as he was setting up for a victory. Kurt Angle moved out of the way of Aj flying off the top rope, then hit the Angle Slam through the table and defeats AJ Styles!

Kurt Angle defeated Aj Styles in a Tables Match
This edition of TNA Impact wasn't all that great. I think there were too many backstage segments. Some of the matches were decent, but overall, this show wasn't all that fun for me. I felt there was still something missing overall. I can't really put my finger on it.

Alex Shelley defeated Sonjay Dutt, Sheik Abdul Bashir, and Chris Sabin
TNA seems to love these style matches, where the titles are on the line in a cluster of a match with several opponents. These matches are usually high spot after high spot, with little or no psychology to speak of. This match was fast paced, and it did not appear that any one person had a clear advantage over the other. Booker T’s wife came down the ramp and was at ringside, which seemed odd. Shelley and Dutt put on a good showing in this match up and Sabin was helping Shelley retain in various moments of this match up. Shelley rolled up an opponent into an odd pinning situation and won this match, retaining his X Division title.
ODB defeated Sojourner Bolt via disqualification
Bolt started this match by attacking ODB’s leg, trying to isolate a body part, just like classic technical wrestlers of the past would do. ODB was getting the upper hand towards the end of this match up, but Awesome Kong came out and caused the disqualification. Kong hit the implant buster and ODB was out cold. Roxxi and Taylor Wilde came out for the save.
Booker T & Scott Steiner defeated Eric Young & Petey Williams
This was an interesting match up. Williams and Young really pushed things in t his math up and it looked like the main event mafia wasn’t that good after all. Steiner was bumping a lot more than usual. Booker T of course wasn’t going to let the win occur and really caused the break up of a lot of different pinning combinations. This was an elimination style tag team match, and after Eric Young was eliminated it was all downhill for Petey Williams. The main event mafia wins again.
Beer Money defeated Matt Morgan and Abyss in a First Blood Match
First blood matches are dumb to me. I used to like them back when I was younger, but that was only because there were some compelling fights that deserved it. This match didn’t really deserve that gimmick, and especially not on television for free. Maybe, and this is a low maybe, it might be worthwhile on a ppv. Even after heavy shots with chairs, no one was bleeding at all. Matt Morgan was ready to hit Beer Money with a chair and swerved everyone, he hit Abyss square in the face with a big chair shot, prompting Abyss to bleed. Matt Morgan has turned on Abyss, in a swerve that we saw coming for week!
Kurt Angle defeated Aj Styles in a Tables Match
Kurt Angle and Aj Styles fought in a Tables match up at the end of Impact. I wasn’t sure who would win this one, but it was good none the less. Aj Styles flew off the ring apron and Angle was immediately winded. This match was interesting to say the least, as the two have wrestled each other many different times. Kurt Angle was definitely the aggressor towards the end of this match up, forcing Aj Styles to try and comeback for the win. They eventually set up table and Angle took a nut shot onto a table sideways that looked bad. Styles built some momentum towards the end of the match, and the crowd was firmly behind him as he was setting up for a victory. Kurt Angle moved out of the way of Aj flying off the top rope, then hit the Angle Slam through the table and defeats AJ Styles!
