TNA SuperThread SPOILERS

[big pat]

The only problem I have here is that Foley is supposed to be a part-owner of TNA in their storylines, so now him being "The Network" just seems to giving him the same authority but with a different title.



God she looked unco-ordinated in her debut. Hope it gets better, or Kurt Angle does most the wrestling at the PPV. And have her implants gotten bigger?



This is one I'm happy with. It's about time that TNA realised their fans like their own guys, not the WWE's outcasts.

you're kidding chyna, where did they dig her up from, last time i saw her, she was posing naked on some cheap dvd.:lol:

Sacrifice looked pretty ordinary - maybe one good-ish match on the card. Rest was reasonable without ever being good or down right terrible.

Spoilers just coming out - looks like Abyss is the new X-Div championship.

...I'm okay with it. It's not like Kaz was going to take the division anywhere.

The report I got for Sacrifice said it was a good PPV with the exception of the Knockouts match and Angle/Chyna vs Jarretts.

Also Abyss winning the X-Title plays into the storyline of Eric Bischoff hating on the X-Division, so it works for me.

From what I heard it was just like a regular show where nothing good nor bad (well except for Dreamer going over) came of it.

lol Impact Wrestling loooooooool

2 changes to Xplosion:

- A new championship (Xplosion Championship), the premise being the champion can organise a match against any TNA Title holder (http://www.pwinsider.com/article/58073/tna-instituting-new-championship.html?p=1)

- Xplosion now has a Commissioner, the returning Desmonde Wolfe. He is still not cleared to wrestle though (http://www.pwinsider.com/article/58066/desmond-wolfe-update.html?p=1)

...WCW downloads are going good if anyone wanted to know, loving the likes of FLyin' Brian Pillman and the Freebirds

YES! British Invasion are shooting for the Tag Titles again. With Robert Roode out, its James Storm + Alex Shelley vs MY BOYS! On PPV.

Edit: They are so good they got a title shot without winning a match (tag, singles, or Battle Royale) since reuniting!

 

[Baron Vo Mandor]

Just a reminder TNA debuts on Fuel @ 8:30pm on saturday night, with shithouse games on this weekend will probably watch live

Shame Fuel doesn't have a HD channel, but beggers cant be choosers.

Ken Anderson def. Sting at Slammiversary IX to win the TNA World Title.

The finish (which was way too worked) involved Eric Bischoff outside the ring hitting the mat once before the referee went for a 3 count for Sting after the Scorpion Death Drop. Once the ref counted to 2, Sting let go since he though a 3 count had occured (1 from Bischoff, 2 from the ref). In the confusion, Anderson low blowed Sting, hit the Mic Check and got the 3 count and the TNA World Title.

The rest of the card:

James Storm + substitute Alex Shelley def. the British Invasion to retain the TNA Tag Titles

Abyss def. Brian Kendrick + Kazarian to retain the TNA X-Division Title

Crimson def. Samoa Joe

Mickie James def. Angelina Love to retain the Knockouts Title

Bully Ray def. AJ Styles in a Last Man Standing match

Kurt Angle def. Jeff Jarrett

 

[Big Pete]

Heard it was the best show TNA put together all year but still had its issues.

Impact sounds promising, especially with the appearance of Austin Aries.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

So long as they don't put him back in that stupid Austin Starr gimmick from 2006!

Impact sounds promising, especially with the appearance of Austin Aries.

I watched the PPV and it seemed like the plan was to make it a top notch show with next to no filler (bar the tag match which was due to Sabin's injury). All the finishes were clean and Bischoff's second count was almost indirect interference which did not touch any wrestlers.

The matches were solid however two or three of the finishes just didn't quite execute to perfection. The finish to the Knockout's and World title matches were somewhat anticlimactic but I like the finish to the AJ Styles and Bully Ray match regardless of whether people think it was bull. Bully Ray is a fantastic heel...you know that this guy gets it and knows how to get everyone to hate him.

If everything went to plan, the show would have been brilliant. The crowd was dead and that didn't help things, neither did putting Angle and Jarrett on last. AJ Styles once again proved that he is TNA's top performer with some crazy moves. He brought about one of the few chants that the crowd had going all night.

I am looking forward to Destination X and am really pumped to see Aries back. The guy got dudded with the last gimmick he was given and he has the talent to really do something in TNA. I may be getting a little ahead of myself but I wish that TNA would go all out and get some reaaaaaaaaaaaal original X-Division wrestlers like Jerelle Clarke and Petey Williams, even if it is just for the moves that make the crowd pop.

Mr. 630!

Definitely, by acknowledging their history TNA can establish themselves as a brand.

Exactly! People would flip if they saw that move! To see some real X-Div action in the six-sided ring would be just what TNA needs.

I don't care if they went with an open door policy for the X-Division in the long term, I actually think it will help them, it's something that no other major company does.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Just to see the Canadian Destroyer whipped out one more time would be great

 

[Manurewa_Marlins]

Jack Evans ftw

 

[MountainMan]

I watched tna recently...Geez scott steiner has lost ALL in ring ability..looks drug f*cked aswell

 

[Big Pete]

Low Ki is back.

If TNA seriously rebuild the X-Division and focus on it the show will improve by about 100%.

 

[Manurewa_Marlins]

aaaagain. I'll believe when I see. Ifs and hopes aside, they need to get rid of the current creative and get some people in there who understand HOW to build characters, storylines, fueds and images of pro wrestlers, and if anyone amongst the current crop of TNA talent, they should be invited to hand in their resignation.

I love Low Ki, but I have little hope in them a) using him right or b) him sticking around for long.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Low Ki is a good signing, if he has signed. Or has he entered that X-Division Gauntlet match for a TNA contract with Austin Aires?
