Official iMPACT Thread for 03/08/10 - It's war, BROTHER!

[Xero]

Bit early, but who cares? THE MONDAY NIGHT WARS ARE BACK!

As always (Monday Night Wars Chat): http://www.justin.tv/juan_tpww_v11/old

[The Franchise]

I think I'm going to watch TNA tonight unless it starts to suck and/or RAW has something really good happening

[taker707]

TNA baby all the way

[James Steele]

LIVE TONIGHT ON RAW...

[The Franchise]

Steph got 900x hotter in the last 2.75 years

[Londoner]

Looking forward to tna tonight, wanna see RVD. :cool:

[Loose Cannon]

nice

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Is this starting in 15 minutes, or 1 hour 15 minutes?

[Xero]

Hour 15.

[Nicky Fives]

Steph got 900x hotter in the last 2.75 years

that's debatable.... she was pretty smokin' back in the McMahon-Helmsley era...... pre boob-job mostly

[Droford]

Impact should be 8-10, not 9-11 straight up vs RAW. Even WCW wasn't that stupid.

[Nicky Fives]

Impact should be 8-10, not 9-11 straight up vs RAW. Even WCW wasn't that stupid.

TNA is already 3/4 WCW anyways.... I guess the other 1/4 is even more stupid

[Loose Cannon]

WOOOOOOOOOOO

[Favre4Ever]

I see what they're trying to do with the whole "YOU CAN'T MISS THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES" thing.

And God if it isn't going to work.

[Jeritron]

I'll be watching Raw for the great builds they've been having.

But I do want to see RVD's return, and I can't deny I'm curious about what goes on with the tag match. Even though I can't stand that Flair is wrestling (and don't care that Hogan is), it should be interesting to see what they do. There's no question there will be a Russo swerve.

Not interested in Sting at all.

Hopefully I can catch the RVD segment during a commercial or a crap GM segment. Will flip periodically during the main events

[The Gold Standard]

Steph got 900x hotter in the last 2.75 years

[The Gold Standard]

I will be watching Raw and DVRing TNA

[Nicky Fives]

taping both shows for me..... will watch them whenever I have time.....

[Sovereigntywillpr]

"Global Impact" it says on my Digital box...

it would be cool if they jumped from the impact zone to AAA(or whatever the spanish promotion they have a deal with) and/Or New/All Japan. It would make TNA (atleast impact)look more on Par with WWE.

[Londoner]

I'll be watching tna online with raw on tv, since its the only way i can watch them tonight, being in the uk.

[Lock Jaw]

Interested to see how badly they drop the ball with this one.

[Nicky Fives]

Interested to see how badly they drop the ball with this one.

100 hypothetical dollars that there will be a bullshit finish (and probably a chant) by the end of the night

[Lock Jaw]

The main event is actually pretty solid and guaranteed to draw viewers. It is the rest of the show that concerns me.

[The Franchise]

Scott Hall with the taser in the main event

[treyace]

the pope will be pimpin

[Londoner]

Actually seems my usual stream is only showing raw not tna tonight, just going to have to rely on a quick search then, unless anyone can pm me a tna impact stream.

[Loose Cannon]

TNA TNA TNA TNA TNA

[Loose Cannon]

ONDAY NIGHT IMPACT

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>The Russo Swerve is alive and well</font>

[treyace]

wow sting

[ImpactPlayer365]

Uhhh...yay..more hogan vs flair :nono:

[Sovereigntywillpr]

so is that a WWE ized ringor WCW size

[Loose Cannon]

HBK looks drunk when they do a closeup

[Loose Cannon]

fuck, wrong thread

[treyace]

surprise number 1 done
two more to go

[Loose Cannon]

Yes, a worked Shoot with Sitng and Dixie

[ImpactPlayer365]

That looked lame

[The Franchise]

yeah that was pretty shite

[Loose Cannon]

hahaha I love heel AJ

[ImpactPlayer365]

I liked that Ric Flair bit there

[FearedSanctity]

Oh no, not the commercials again

[treyace]

flair is gonna be the one going to the hospital
turning purple like that lol

[ImpactPlayer365]

haha

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Okay, 20 minutes in, and TNA is awful thus far. Opening segment was brutal, Sting heel turn was predictable, and then they had a whole segment of nothing but mini-boring promos/ backstage shots.

Plus, the tag match is happening again later, even worse.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

And more backstage shit, what the fuck!

[Skippord]

lol this X-Division chant

[Loose Cannon]

woah, hot promo right now by Kazarian

[ImpactPlayer365]

Oh shit a Daniels sighting

[What Would Kevin Do?]

What the fuck?

I am X?

And can we get a fucking real match?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Don't get me wrong, I love Daniels, I love Doug Williams, but they need to stop fucking talking.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Williams is good stuff they should let him run with the belt for a bit

[ClockShot]

DROP THE MICS AND FIGHT ALREADY!

[Loose Cannon]

dude, Bischoff and Hogan on writing this. you should know promos are going to out due matches

[Favre4Ever]

old man bisch

[Loose Cannon]

didn't you guys watch WCW

[Skippord]

lol I am X!!!!

[KIRA]

omfg shut up and fight

[ImpactPlayer365]

ahhh shit good stuff

[CSL]

Don't get me wrong, I love Daniels, I love Doug Williams, but they need to stop fucking talking.

Is Doug getting some singles time??

[KIRA]

finally!

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Is Doug getting some singles time??

Yeah, he's the x division champ/

[Favre4Ever]

wow sick pin.

[CSL]

Yeah, he's the x division champ/

Holy shit, that's awesome. Might czech his stuff out.

[Loose Cannon]

look at all the talking on Raw

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Morrison's running knee > WIlliam's running knee.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

look at all the talking on Raw

DVRing it, will watch it later...

Honestly though, I've come to expect it from WWE. I was hoping TNA would do something different.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Dixie is going to do a strip tease to raise up the ratings

[viO]

I've been pretty entertained so far, moreso than whenever I try to watch RAW.

[Loose Cannon]

DVRing it, will watch it later...

Honestly though, I've come to expect it from WWE. I was hoping TNA would do something different.

I knew Bisch was writing it, so I didn't expect to much wrestling. but it doesn't bother me too much

[Kane Knight]

DVRing it, will watch it later...

Honestly though, I've come to expect it from WWE. I was hoping TNA would do something different.

I think they peaked with the six sided ring.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Okay, the ending of that match was sexy, and I fucking love the Chaos Theory.

[Loose Cannon]

Woah, what a fucking move by Williams

[ImpactPlayer365]

Yesss Williams is awesome

[Emperor Smeat]

1st time seeing Doug William's finisher but that's a nice suplex combo.

[Loose Cannon]

Oh jesus no. TNA just lost me forever

[Favre4Ever]

that Chaos Theory suplex is pretty beast.

[Kane Knight]

does Moore look dumber?

[Loose Cannon]

not Shannon Moore

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Shannon Moore, least intimidating wrestler ever.

[Favre4Ever]

also, Shannon Moore is apparently aptly named, because he looks like a woman.

[Loose Cannon]

oh god wtf. why why

[ImpactPlayer365]

Crowd had no idea who he was haha

[Skippord]

wait didn't Kazarian have a match for the X-Division title at Destination X?

[VSG]

So why does a "new" wrestler get to main event a PPV?

[ImpactPlayer365]

RVD RVD RVD

[Skippord]

also why does anyone think Shannon Moore is worth a title match?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

does Moore look dumber?

He's officially transcended dumb. He looks like some sort of goth/emo/cyber punk with a mad mohawk.

He pretty much looks like an extra in a bad post-apocalypse movie.

[Providence Peep]

So, who's the bigger tool: Michael Cole or Jeremy Borash?

[muffalufagus]

I'm having a hard time following what just happened with the X Title. Why did Kazarian get his shot in a triple threat and then now he's forgotten and we have to deal with Shannon Moore?

[viO]

He didn't get much of a reaction from the crowd, that's for sure.

[dronepool]

Moore looks pretty cool, but I'm not sure it works as well for wrestling.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

So why does a "new" wrestler get to main event a PPV?

also why does anyone think Shannon Moore is worth a title match?

He's from the WWE. Not only does he get the match, he gets to win.

[Kane Knight]

So why does a "new" wrestler get to main event a PPV?
Because TNA is innovative like that.

[Loose Cannon]

did they seriously just book Moore for an the X Division Title shot

[ImpactPlayer365]

Best part of TNA coming up

[Loose Cannon]

Wait wait, Everyone stop for the greatest TNA THEME EVER

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Velvet Sky's ass is the best thing TNA has going for it.

[Loose Cannon]

BEUTIFUL PEOPLE :love:

[ClockShot]

Beautiful People earn a flip from WWE right now.

[Loose Cannon]

god they are awesome and delicious

[treyace]

that X Division match was better then anything ive seen on raw since the whole bret hbk thing
and im sure this knockouts match will be better then the divas match

[KIRA]

Moore looks pretty cool, but I'm not sure it works as well for wrestling.

It dosent he just looked like a creepy lady with a hard tan and scrunched up face

[Favre4Ever]

I would eat Velvet Skye's poop.

[Loose Cannon]

Velvet and Angelina are amazing in thier feud.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Mmmmmmm, Daffney

[Skippord]

Mmmmmmm, Daffney

[muffalufagus]

Sting vs. RVD

[dronepool]

Yup.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Pope vs. Wolfe.

WTF!?!?!?!? Did Tazz just give away who Sting's opponent is? I mean, come on now.

[muffalufagus]

Tazz most certainly did. I mean who isn't going to get that? "Where were you at 4:20 this afternoon?"

I called it as soon as Dixie announced it, but Tazz just handed it to everyone.

[treyace]

why would u ruin a pope promo

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Tazz most certainly did. I mean who isn't going to get that? "Where were you at 4:20 this afternoon?"

I called it as soon as Dixie announced it, but Tazz just handed it to everyone.

Seriously. I mean, even if you know it's coming, you still get the "Hey, shit, I was right." Now it's just "Yeah, duh."

[What Would Kevin Do?]

why would u ruin a pope promo

Because Nigel is awesome.

[treyace]

wow the only match worth watchin on raw legacy and orton
oh sorry wrong channel

[FearedSanctity]

Pope is always getting beaten down. Ridiculous.

Better that Taz give it away like that, I suppose. This way word of mouth can do it's thing and more people should be watching toward the end. If they just would've left it as a last second surprise, only those who were watching at the time would know, and TNA is def in this for the ratings.

[muffalufagus]

What time did TNA start? Same time as RAW?

[Loose Cannon]

Lacey's boobs are nice when she jumps up and down

[ImpactPlayer365]

HAHAHAHA

[muffalufagus]

Incoming RVD....

[Loose Cannon]

RVD RVD RVD RVD

[Londoner]

Is RVD on yet?

[ClockShot]

Huh?

[Loose Cannon]

ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[muffalufagus]

That was awesome!

[treyace]

RVD!!!!!!!!!!

[Loose Cannon]

WINNER: RVD

[ImpactPlayer365]

The place is bananas!!!

[VSG]

Way to bury your legend, TNA!

[muffalufagus]

SABU SABU SABU SABU SABU SABU

[Loose Cannon]

I am really liking this bad ass Sitng. He's like a silent assasian

[Skippord]

I love RVD

[Loose Cannon]

Way to bury your legend, TNA!

dude, that wasn't a burial at all.

[SOCCER LEGS]

lol when did they get rid of the gay 6 sided ring?

[ImpactPlayer365]

Well they got Sting over as a heel

[muffalufagus]

I actually marked the fuck out right there.

[The Franchise]

ROB VAN DAM on Monday Night iMPACT can you believe it

[Loose Cannon]

wow, they really booked Sting perfect here to make him a heel

[Loose Cannon]

better then WCW ever did

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Actually a really smart way to get over Sting as a heel.

[Skippord]

Sting should popsicle that fat idiot

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Yeah, absolute perfect booking for the heel turn, TNA knew that no one was going to be more over as a face than Van Dam. That's how you put someone over as a heel, you put the ONLY guy who will get cheered based soley off a cult following against him.

[Skippord]

I meant Bubba The Love Sponge btw

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Why is security holding Hogan back, isn't he their boss?

[Loose Cannon]

come on Sting, crack the bat over Hulk's head

[Skippord]

this crack security team is really protecting RVD well

[Loose Cannon]

WOOOOOOOOOO

[viO]

That place was loud as shit for such a small crowd.

[Loose Cannon]

Nash and Young are a great team

[Loose Cannon]

definately the best segment of the night so far with Sting and RVD

[The Franchise]

yeah I enjoyed that alot and I never really liked RVD

[Favre4Ever]

I mean Christ, the least Nash could do is dye his fucking hair so he doens't look 55.

[treyace]

wow all this in the first hour
and what exactly happened on raw so far lol

[The Franchise]

Nash should change his theme to Salt-N-Pepa

[Loose Cannon]

Bubba the Love Spone is horrible. should be fired

[Stealth-Icon]

Glad to see RVD, but way to make him look like a little bitch on his first night

[The Franchise]

I hope Kong kicks his ass

...again

[ImpactPlayer365]

Ahhhh Push It

[taker707]

Impact has been Hot so far . Im loving this sting heel turn . perfectly done

[Skippord]

Bubba the Love Spone is horrible. should be fired
out of a cannon, into the sun

[treyace]

what no midget with magical lucky charms
thats not wrestling lol

[Loose Cannon]

The Kliq on both shows at the same time. LOL

[AngryMidjit]

I am really liking this bad ass Sitng. He's like a silent assasian

sillent ass asian

[The Franchise]

lol

[ClockShot]

Sheesh. Everybody in the ring is sportin' black threads and Hall wears a red t-shirt and sneakers.

[Skippord]

Scott Hall shouldn't talk anymore

[SOCCER LEGS]

"2/3 of the legendary wolfpac is in this building"

uhh the wolfpac was nash, sting, luger, konnan and savage

that's 2/5

[The Franchise]

HEYGH GYO

[KIRA]

And nobody knows cool like overweight guys in their forties

[muffalufagus]

How drunk is Scott Hall right now?

[Skippord]

Waltman kind of looks like a transexual hooker

[What Would Kevin Do?]

LOL! That was the greatest Bischoff promo ever.

[Skippord]

I love Eric Young

[Loose Cannon]

X-pac still looks good

[Stealth-Icon]

This is horrible

[Stealth-Icon]

Wow, X pac is the first one not to fuck up a move

[Loose Cannon]

sick piledriver

[SOCCER LEGS]

TNA needs to get rid of retarded mike tenay and put bischoff in his spot, bischoff is golden

[Skippord]

PILEDRIVER

[muffalufagus]

Talk about ring rust. X-Pac looked terrible.

[Skippord]

that's not a humdrumvee

[ClockShot]

Army. They declaring Martial Law or something?

[Stealth-Icon]

The Army, hahahaha. They look like bigger wusses than the security that was there

[FearedSanctity]

Probably something with Angle/Anderson

[Loose Cannon]

Talk about ring rust. X-Pac looked terrible.

:wtf: are you kidding me? he didn't look bad at all. what do you want?

[ImpactPlayer365]

ugghh

[treyace]

i know im not the only one who couldnt wait for eric to beat some sense into waltman

[ImpactPlayer365]

FFXIII!!!!

[What Would Kevin Do?]

What the fuck? Was that humvee some sort of army clown car?

[Skippord]

Well that was necessary

[ImpactPlayer365]

hahaha

[Loose Cannon]

kind of hate the way they are using the Army for this feud. I don't buy Kennedy hating on the US army

[AngryMidjit]

cheap heat, not the cheap pop kind of way, just cheap in quality. like russo can't come up with anything so he makes a DURR ANTI-AMURRICA feud

[Stealth-Icon]

kind of hate the way they are using the Army for this feud. I don't buy Kennedy hating on the US army


I agree. Just let them hate each other and fight. Drop the army bit. Kinda sucks.

[Favre4Ever]

kind of hate the way they are using the Army for this feud. I don't buy Kennedy hating on the US army

And I've seen far too much heel Kurt Angle to think that he wouldn't exploit them himself if it served his purposes.

[FearedSanctity]

TNA loving the word "bitch" tonight

[Stealth-Icon]

This has gotten old real fast

[Favre4Ever]

I love Kurt but that was a garbage segment.

[VSG]

WTF is this shit?

[Vietnamese Crippler]

^ Business as usual.

[AngryMidjit]

but the live fans are eating it all up

[dronepool]

Captain America isn't a jingoist but it's funny that Anderson was wearing a Cap shirt while doing this segment.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Bubba Blows

[FearedSanctity]

Oh Goddddd, Bubba FOAD

[Stealth-Icon]

Bubba being the voice of reason telling Hogan to stop. WTF is this world coming too?

[VSG]

Lol Hebner looks fitter than Hogan!

[Skippord]

lol

god TNA

[SOCCER LEGS]

wow the production quality of TNA is just bad

[ImpactPlayer365]

Jesus this is horrible

[Stealth-Icon]

Hogan---My son is in Cali watching and worried to death. LOL, more like he is in Cali looking for his next drag race on the street

[Stealth-Icon]

I am sick of Jeff Janitor's sob story about how he founded TNA.

[ImpactPlayer365]

its a kinda fucked up story though

[SOCCER LEGS]

does jeff jarrett realize he is not a draw in the least?

[Stealth-Icon]

Jeff Janitor could pass as Sponge Bob Square Pants

[Stealth-Icon]

Brooke is a horrible actor

[Skippord]

well this is delightfully pointless

[ClockShot]

It's OK, Brooke. So your music career didn't work out.

[Skippord]

Is it weird that I want to bang brooke hogan more when she's crying?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

No Pope vs. Wolfe? Lame

[SOCCER LEGS]

Is it weird that I want to bang brooke hogan more when she's crying?

no

[taker707]

No Pope vs. Wolfe? Lame

totally agreeeeeeeee

[Londoner]

TNA'S GOT NO CHAAANNCEEE NO CHANCE IN HELL

[FearedSanctity]

Calling it now, Sting interferes, Hardy saves

[viO]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

[Icess]

He'll probably turn heel, makes more sense in a Bischoff sense.

[Londoner]

YOU'VE GOT NO CHAAANNCEEE NO CHANCE IN HEEEELLLL YOU'VE GOT NO CHAAANNCCEE NO CHANCE IN HELLL

sorry gotta keep myself occupied during the break

[Skippord]

Two ancient men locking it up in the ring

[Favre4Ever]

watching Hogan moving around like this is a sad sight.

[Stealth-Icon]

this is aweful

[Stealth-Icon]

Flair always has been the best bleeder in the game

[SOCCER LEGS]

this is fucking ridiculous, and not in a good way

[What Would Kevin Do?]

I hate Flair for this match.

He was given essentially the best last match and send off possible, and now he's back doing this crap.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

I am not an Abyss fan.

[Londoner]

Going well then?

[SOCCER LEGS]

jesus fuck

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Well, at least Hogan let a real wrestler get the pin.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

LOL! Way to cut off before the Swanton.

[dronepool]

holy shit.

[Favre4Ever]

LOL WHAT AN ENDING, SPIKE CUTS OUT!
