Fire Eric Young

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Against All Odds actually sounded like a good PPV (outside of the Garrett Bischoff vs Gunner match).

Results:

- Zema Ion def. Jesse Sorensen by KO (Sorensen was legitimately KO'd)

- Robbie E def. Shannon Moore to retain the TNA TV Title

- Gail Kim def. Tara to retain the TNA Knockouts Title

- Samoa Joe + Magnus def. Crimson + Matt Morgan to become the new TNA Tag Team Champions

- Austin Aires def. Alex Shelley to retain the X-Division Title

- Kazarian def. A.J. Styles

- Gunner def. Garrett Bischoff

- Bobby Roode def. Jeff Hardy + Bubba Ray + James Storm to retain the TNA Heavyweight Title after Sting accidently KO'd Hardy with the title belt.

 

[Misanthrope]

I love the way Aries has been booked. It's rare these days to see a heel win clean unless it's in a squash. Very cool to see one being booked as a legitimately dominant worker. I do love Shelley as well, but I'd be reluctant to see Aries drop the belt to him.

Maybe Morrison when he inevitably signs up. There's some dream matches in the offing there.

 

[Big Pete]

Might give it a watch a bit later - Aries/Shelley in particular sounds really good.

What did you guys make of the Wembley Impact? I thought it was awesome to see a huge turn-out. Would love to see TNA attract more crowds like that.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

I thought it was a fantastic turn out, really helped the atmosphere of the show as compared to the Impact Zone, since it was a bigger venue and there wasn't such a focus on dueling chants.

And how can I forget, MAG DADDY IS A CHAMPION AGAIN!!!

 

[Big Pete]

Russo is gone.

Sorensen isn't doing too well.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

1 year recovery for a fractured C1 vertebra for Jesse Sorensen. Poor guy, he was starting to perform well for TNA. Kurt Angle (the moron) says he will be back in 4 months. Hopefully Sorensen doesn't rush back, neck injuries aren't something to be messed with.

 

[Big Pete]

He's a decent worker but I hated the name (it sounds like something straight out of the FCW name factory) and he was bland as bland could be.

Still, I feel sorry for him and I hope he makes a great comeback from this and if he does, I hope TNA pushes it properly. Hopefully they don't f**k it up as much as WCW did with the whole Bagwell incident.

 

[Misanthrope]

Russo is gone.

Excited to see what Lagana can come up with. Should see some new direction at least.

 

[Big Pete]

I hope Lagana takes a page out of Aries booking and it applies it to Roode. The dirty heel is medieval booking.

Speaking of Aries, while it's refreshing to see a heel pick up so many clean wins I've found it far too safe and predictable. Time to spice the division up with a few international/independent challenges while developing the likes of Ion, Haskins etc. with their own programs away from the championship.

Haven't been keeping up with TNA lately but looks like your typical build up show towards your big show. Plenty of rematches on here.

It is basically a rematch card, with the focus being on Sting-Roode, Hardy-Angle, and Joe/Magnus-Crimson/Morgan. With the possible exception of Robbie E, I expect all the champions to retain. My picks

Bobby Roode vs Sting, Non-Title No Holds Barred. Winner = Roode

Jeff Hardy vs Kurt Angle. Winner = Angle

James Storm vs Bubba-Ray. Winner = Storm

AJ Styles + Ken Anderson vs Christopher Daniels + Frankie Kazarian. Winner = Daniels + Kazarian

Samoa Joe + Magnus vs Crimson + Matt Morgan for the TNA Tag Titles. Winner = Joe + Magnus (expect Crimson + Morgan to split up, Crimson the likely heel)

Austin Aires vs Zema Ion for the TNA X-Division Title. Winner = Aires

Gail Kim vs Madison Rayne for the TNA Knockouts Title. Winner = Kim

Robbie E in an open challenge for the TNA TV Title. Winner = Mystery Opponent

Victory Road Results:

James Storm def. Bully Ray in under a minute

Austin Aires def. Zema Ion to retain the TNA X-Division Title

Magnus + Samoa Joe def. Crimson + Matt Morgan to retain the TNA Tag Titles. Crimson turned heel by spearing Morgan for the champs to get the pin

Gail Kim def. Madison Rayne to retain the TNA Women's Title

Mystery Opponent D-Von def. Robbie E to win the TNA TV Title

AJ Styles + Ken Anderson def. Christopher Daniels + Frankie Kazarian

Kurt Angle def. Jeff Hardy

Bobby Roode def. Sting in a Non-Title Street Fight. After the match, Roode laid out both Sting + Dixie Carter with chair shots

 

[Big Pete]

The finish to the main event sounded stupid.

 

[Eddie Lab]

The finish to the main event sounded stupid.

not really surprising though. TNA has a track record of making endings stupid.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

By the sound of it, it was a good PPV. I can see they are trying to make Roode an uber-heel of sorts, but I agree the finish was a bit convoluted.

 

[Misanthrope]

The ending did read as a little stupid, but I'll reserve judgement until I see it.

Aries/Ion, Angle/Hardy, and the main event all sound enjoyable.

 

[WYD]

I'm so far behind in my puro and indies that I've given up watching TNA recently but man I want to see how Dixie Carter took that chair shot :lol:

 

[WYD]

Why are TNA so stupid?

They really should have cleaned out their roster and bought the ROH guys and Moxley.

Also need a 2 hour b-show.

Quit as well how legless is it these days.
