Anyone who was hoping to see Angle/Joe vs. Daniels/Styles at Victory Road...SPOILERS

[KingofOldSchool]

Get ready to be disappointed.


Richard Trionfo called in the following spoiler notes from tonight's TNA Impact taping:

*Team 3D defeated LAX and AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels to retain the TNA Tag Team championships after a 3D on Daniels.

*A ten man Ultimate X match was announced for Victory Road.

*Sting & Abyss vs. Tomko & AJ Styles was announced for Victory Road.

*Abyss spoke for the first time during a promo.

We'll have further updates of note as they become available and full spoilers later in the evening.

At least people could see Daniels/Styles winning one of the other titles...

[Innovator]

Dammit. Really hoped they would do that.

At least Bubba still has a shot to be the X Division champ

Well if Fat Joe can win it...

[Rob]

10 man Ultimate X? Clusterfuck!

[Innovator]

Can't be a TNA PPV without one

[chrisat928]

I thought Ultimate X was always for the X division title.

[Xero]

LOL, probably for a "Title in the Bank" shot.

[Innovator]

probably for a title shot....or for Judy Bagwell

Judy Bagwell on a Rope match!

(Insert tasteless Benoit joke here.)

[Skippord]

I wanted LAX vs Joe and Angle tbh

Actually, that's just tasteless, and not really much of a joke. :/

Kurt Angle & Samoa Joe vs. AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels was the best choice possible for the main event of Victory Road. 3/4 of the match are TNA bred wrestlers, and Angle working with them is kind of a dream that things like the glass ceiling prevent. The LAX were the second best option. They are hot at the moment, and although they don't have the same singles success as Styles and Daniels in TNA, I guess it is a tag team match, and they could be made to look well-oiled as a unit, and ready to take down the big players. Team 3D were the worst possible choices. Broken down Attitude-era guys who can't even hold the fans interest (so that can't be an excuse for using them).

I hope Samoa Joe gets the pin, retains the X-Division Championship and names Kurt Angle his partner. Angle and Joe have a lot of tension at the moment, and the only reason Joe won the X-Division belt was to put him in the match with Angle. Have Angle and Joe lose the TNA World Tag Team Titles to The LAX, and then have Angle cost Joe the TNA X-Division Title. Angle vs. Joe is set, and we get some good matches and rubs. That's the only way this Championship showcase match is going to mean anything. Unfortunately, TNA have ruined the chances of it meaning anything when it does actually take place. It can only really happen in the aftermath.

I'm looking forward to the ten-man Ultimate-X. I read it as a Gauntlet Match, which would have been awesome, but while this match will be crowded, it will be awesome. A simple three-way just pitting Jay Lethal against Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian would have been fine, though. Maybe throw in Matt Sydal, or someone from Japan, or even just good ol' Petey Williams. Ten men might be taking things a bit far.

[Mr. JL]

I will kill to see a ONE ON ONE Ultimate X match.

10 Men? Fucking TNA...

[Mr. JL]

Also announced for the match...

Kevin Nash, Mr. Backlund and Don West will be shot out of a cannon at various angles of their choice to see if they can grab the X Division belt!

[The Fugitive]

I will kill to see a twenty-man Ultimate X match.

Whaaa? :shifty:

[Erebus]

Same here. I wanted Angle to cost Joe the match and the x-title to Homicide. At least that might've been more interesting than 3D in the ME.

[Jordan]

3-D is a great team and the match will still be awesome. I have always bought 3-D as main eventers.

3D in the ME at the PPV? :lol:

I've always bought them as fill-in, temporary main eventers. They're over enough to fill up a month or two while the next ME guy is being groomed in the midcard.

lol.

3D in the ME at the PPV doing the J.O.B.

But will Nash's quad survive the event



Too late :shifty:?
