There are absolutely no gimmick matches in TNA.

I don't like the idea of TNA doing Six Sides of Steel, as Lockdown is just over a month away (or something like that), and Cage and Angle will be meeting in a six-man tag team match at Destination X WITHOUT A STEEL CAGE! Why the fuck would you pay for a regular tag team match when you saw a Steel Cage Match between two of the participants? It's reverse booking. Christian Cage should go over to look good over the TNA World Heavyweight Champion.

Kevin Nash should not be wrestling. He is an entertaining talker, but that is it. While it would make sense to put him over, to say "hey, look, he's still got it," AJ Styles should win when Tomko kicks Nash's ass. It makes Tomko look good, and it gives Styles a big win. Something he needs, because storyline-wise, he's been a goof recently. Nash can get revenge later.

Samoa Joe and Tomko have this weird kind of parallel thing going in my head. Samoa Joe came into TNA and was the best thing going (TPWW Joe haters aside), and Tomko has been great recently. Tomko also has like two falls over Joe, which is pretty rare for someone that's not TNA World Heavyweight Champion. Joe is apparently next in line to be Champion, so he should probably get the push over Tomko. A good fight, but Kevin Nash can run out, and whack Tomko with a steel chair, busting him open. Tomko looks good in defeat, Nash gets some revenge, and it can tie the face team together more. Joe can be both grateful that his mentor helped him (I hate the Nash/Joe thing, but you can't really drop it), and upset that Nash thought he needed help.

AJ Styles can be busy chasing Karen, and Kurt can be too busy chasing Angle. Tomko can feel like a man alone, and it throws the Angle Alliance further into question, which seems to be what they are going for.

Of course, I know that's not the way we're going to see it go down.

It's one of the reasons TNA is so bad. If you throw away gimmick matches and different matchups every week there is no development of fueds, no hype to certain match types, and all fresh fueds and meetups on the roster are exhausted before any fans can even desire them.

Lets have our two biggest stars in a cage match on a random tv show, and then in a month try to sell people a ppv of cage matches

And lets have Joe and Angle have a bunch of matches, and then slate them to have one thats a big torch passing when they've already passed the torch back and forth a year earlier.

I could go on

[Mr. Nerfect]

What they could have done is a round robin thing. It builds to Destination X, and it will pretty much make the same matches possible, just without the redundant gimmicks.

Samoa Joe and AJ Styles could work a fucking great televised match. Joe gets put over strong, because he is the guy the company wants to make their next Champion. Christian Cage and Kurt Angle have been feuding, and the feud will probably not be on PPV for a while, so I don't see why you don't have Cage and Angle wrestle, with Cage getting an elusive win over Angle. Then you do Nash vs. Tomko, in which you put Tomko over clean, because he's been on a bit of a roll.

Not sure how long is left until Destination X, but you can just swap the opponents around the following week: Samoa Joe beats Tomko, Kurt Angle beats Kevin Nash, and Christian Cage beats AJ Styles. You then have the faces go over at Destination X. The third of the series, if it is done, sees Kevin Nash pin AJ Styles, and Christian Cage defeat Tomko with a roll-up. This builds to Cage & Nash challenging AJ & Tomko at Lockdown, where Styles & Tomko retain. Angle vs. Joe is done, but Angle gets himself disqualified, which builds to the probable Six Sides of Steel Match they have.

Yup, its indeed one of the reasons why tna's so bad.l They're sod esperate to get ratings they're resorting to backwards booking without realizing it.
