TNA Against All Odds Results

TNA presents Against All Odds


PRE-SHOW

Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. A1
-The Truth gets the win in a short match with a pretty ugly botched spot by A1. Killings nails the Axe Kick to regain the momentum and win the match.
-4/10

Lance Hoyt / Cassidy Riley / Shark Boy vs. Shannon Moore / Elix Skipper / David Young
-Shannon has some trouble with his team mates: after he makes a blind tag to Skipper, the Diamonds in the Rough choose not to tag him in anymore. This leads to confrontation when Shannon and his team mates begin to fight each other. Shannon walks on his partners, allowing Lance Hoyt to get the win.
-5/10

AGAINST ALL ODDS BEGINS

Match 1: The Naturals vs. Austin Aries & Roderick Strong
-A pretty solid opener to the actual PPV, showcasing four of the best young stars in TNA. The Naturals get beat down for a good portion of the match, up until they hit the Natural Disaster on Strong for the match.
-6/10

Match 2: Petey Williams vs. Matt Bentley vs. Jay Lethal vs. Alex Shelley
-Some crisp X-Division action from these four guys, and if you blinked you'd miss some great spots from Lethal and Williams. Petey and Shelley team up for a bit to keep Lethal worn down. Bentley gets a hot tag but doesn't do anything with it. Petey, Matt and Alex get into it in the ring, allowing the freshman Jay Lethal to sneak in and get the win.
-7/10

Match 3: The James Gang vs. Latin American Xchange
-Boring is the best word to describe it. Kip James does nothing to put over Homicide and Machette, making the already smaller guys look like chumps. This one drags out until BG James hits a Pumphandle Slam for the win. Konnan and the LAX beat down on the James Gang after the match, only to be run off by... BG James' 62 year old father. Right.
-4/10

Match 4: Sonjay Dutt & Chris Sabin vs. America's Most Wanted - NWA Tag Team Championship -
-Lots of psychology in this match as AMW worked over Chris Sabin's "injured' ankle. Sonjay does a lot of the work in the match, but the handicapped odds work on in favor the tag team champions. AMW hit the Death Sentence on Dutt to retain.
-7/10

Match 5: Rhino vs. Abyss - Falls Count Anywhere -
-Great hardcore match that barely saw any time inside of the ring. Both guys took some big hits and came back for more, leading to Rhino GORING Abyss off a walkway through four tables to get the pinfall and the win. Very entertaining match.
-7/10

Match 6: AJ Styles vs. Christopher Daniels vs. Samoa Joe - X Division Championship -
-Unbelievable match; you really have to see it to appreciate it. These guys pulled out all the stops and hit some really great spots. Styles and Daniels played second fiddle to Joe's awesome brute strength and power, leading to an inevitable Muscle Buster on AJ for the win. Should have gone longer.
-9/10

Match 7: Team 3D vs. Team Canada (Roode & Young)
-Usual Team 3D/Team Canada fare. The former Dudley Boys hit the 3D on Eric Young to get the win. After the match, the rest of TC and AMW hit the ring to follow up on a beatdown on Team 3D. Ron Killings hits the ring to bail them out, and hits a legdrop on Eric Young through a table, setting up a future feud.
-6/10

Match 8: Christian Cage vs. Jeff Jarrett - NWA World Championship -
-Even though it was an overbooked affair, god knows it feels good to watch Christian Cage win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. After nearly half a dozen false finishes, Cage reverses The Stroke to hit the Unprettier and win the title for the first time in his career. Congratulations to CC. The fans in the Impact Zone literally jump the barricades to hoist Christian above their heads as the new leader of TNA wrestling.
-8/10

:wtf:
Because the TNA World Title is sooooooo much more prestigous than the WWE title. Don't get me wrong, I love Christian, and maybe he can help TNA. But the fact is, until TNA gets more momentum, Christian is the champion of the second biggest wrestling company in America, which is not even close to being in the same leage as the # 1 company.

[Blitz]

Can't you just let us mark out for one minute? :'(

Technically, it's the NWA Championship, which while doesn't mean much these days, has more prestige than the WWE Championship.

Still, Christian is a very charismatic guy, and as champion (with a long title reign), it could be the beginning of rising up. Also, if Christian is marketed correctly, this could lead to other superstars making the TNA jump like Benoit or a returning Chris Jericho, down the road.

Actually, I thought I read something that the NWA title was no longer associated w/ TNA? Or wasn't going to be or something? Can anyone clear this up?

Anyway, how many modern wrestling fans no about the NWA lineage?

This could help TNA if bigger names jump. Once again, don't get me wrong, I love Christian, and I'm happy he's getting what he deserves... I just feel sorta meh. If this were the WWE, I'd mark out like a bitch. It's just part of me realizes that many modern wrestling fans are going to look at this and see that Christian is holding the main title of a second rate company. Plus, other fans may look at TNA and think "Psh, there world champion is Christian, who got regularly beat down in the WWE. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see a lot of non-TNA, non-Christian fans buying this.

I give him a month before Double J buries him like they did Raven.

TNA wrestling is no longer associtated with the NWA, they did however take out leases on the NWA Heavyweight Championship and the NWA Tag Championships through 2014. This is from memory, a wikipedia search on TNA will clear it up for you.

[James Steele]

I think TNA was stupid to withdraw from the NWA.

LOL

SURVEY SAYS???

Seriously, so they aren't associated with NWA, but have their belts until 2014... So, ummmm, I guess technically, Christian isn't even an NWA champion.

Steve Corino, however, has been :)

[James Steele]

Steve Corino = The Man

First step to being a wrestler... Start wearing shirts w/ your name on it...

Shame Corino lost the AWA title.. Alas, Ohtani is the shit.

[Pinnacle Charisma]

CHRISTIAN FUCKING CAGE:lol: :naughty:

[CharismaInjection]

Woo hoo! Well done to Christian. He's worked so hard for that.

[Blitz]

Who d'ya suppose will finally get the first win over Joe? I say Lethal, maybe even for the title.

[CSL]

<font color=white>So how long now before Jarrett beats Christian with a guitar shot to regain the title and begin his 4,822nd title reign?</font>

[CSL]

Who d'ya suppose will finally get the first win over Joe? I say Lethal, maybe even for the title.

<font color=white>I hope it's somebody like Christian. Push Joe to the moon, put the NWA title on him while he's still unbeaten and end the streak in a main event</font>

[JH]

all i know is this....the NWA World Title is the most prestigous title in the history of this business and no matter what anybody says Christian is THE NWA World Champion

[Y3J]

The sound is a bit off though. Still excellent to watch.

[Disturbed316]

Yeah, because the NWA Title means so much now :roll:

You watch Jarrett win back at the next ppv.

[owenbrown]

Mike Tenay says Christian Cage had cracked the glass ceiling.

lol

CRACKED it?! SHIT.... he fucking SHATTERED the glass ceiling..... IT'S ABOUT FUCKING TIME.....

CONGRATS TO CHRISTIAN CAGE..... NWA WORLD CHAMPION :love: :y:

[Londoner]

I'm glad Christian has the title, that's all I need to hear, if he lost, the critics in this thread would still complain, you just can't please some people I guess.Stop moaning and be fucking glad he's the champ, thats what we all wanted so be happy for fuck sake,if he jobs to JJ then well shit happens, but enjoy the moment while it lasts.(this was only intended for people like disturbed/WWKD and anyone else who thinks like them)

If they use Christian well enough, it could help the NWA title as well as TNA.It just needs to stay away from JJ for a while atleast.

I wonder how long ole Captain Charisma will hold it for.

And TL, sure, I'm happy for CHristian, but his title win doesn't do much for me. He's the champion of a company I don't watch, and I don't care about. He's the champion of a company that alot of wrestling fans don't watch, and alot of wrestling fans don't care about.

To a lot of people, this isn't going to say "Christian made it." It's going to look like Christian couldn't catch a break in WWE, but he went to TNA and was big shit. And on a name recognition basis for TNA, he is.

[Fox]

<---- Did not know AJ Styles is a 3-time NWA Champion.

[D Mac]

Christian as a World Champ? Only in TNA i guess.

i think jj will take time off now, it is a good time to do it now and wait till april when inpact is on thursday nights then he will want it back.
