TNA IMPACT - 8.11.16 *Official Thread*
 

Watching IMPACT for first time since Final Deletion to see

Thoughts so far: Ethan Carter is good, Lashley sucks

omg that isn't Lashley his face is different. Ok, his name is Moose apparently. Moose sucks so far. Go Ethan Carter!

Does he have real or painted on eyebrows?

I'm over 2 months behind on Impact, I want to catch up before BFG but so hard to find the time when there's not too many people on the roster I care about compared to years past....

They look pretty real

Al Snow cutting a promo right now

Or James Storm or someone. I don't know who this is. I think it's the James Storm guy. Def in better shape than Al Snow.

James Storm will wrestle Lashley in this very ring tonight, both titles on the line!

Damian Sandow is here!

Just starting I'll catch up eventually.

Aron Rex

wtf kind of name is that

guess he is not going back to wwe soon

Damian Sandow, er, Aron Rex, cutting a promo about how WWE sucks and TNA is #1

A-Rex

I guess his name is supposed to Aaron Rex and they misspelled it when he came out LMFAO

oh wait no, it is spelled Aron

Gail Kim wrestling some lady who looks like Layla but not as good as Layla.

Maria and some blonde girl watching on with evil intentions towards Gail Kimberly.

some other asian lady just ran down to save gail kim from a beatdown from maria and blonde assistant and not-layla.

opening match was good. Planting the seeds for Moose to turn on Bennett.

Hope Clerk is happy. I took slik's job on the Smackdown thread, he got me back with the Impact thread.

does impact usually have a thread

wait, Jeff and Matt Hardy are a tag team again,I thought they hated each other...I like Matt Hardy's entrance music

wtf is Matt Hardy wearing lol. He looks like Ministry Taker

Jeff Hardy's music is some guy yelling "Obama is obsolete" on loop...weird

Good for Aron Rex, good promo but I thought someone would interrupt. Eli Drake would be a good program for him to start out with I think.

Smashing Pumpkin has had enough of Lashley's bad attitude

"The Decay" cutting a backstage promo with strobe light probably bought at Hobby Lobby...Drew McIntyre is up next

Drew McIntyre cutting a promo where he is 'angry'. Why are all characters in TNA 'angry'...Al Snow, Aron Rex, Drew McIntyre...

Broken Matt Hardy is brilliant.

I feel bad for not being live, I'm sorry slik.

u r good dude!

Now their both #Broken, great.

Roman Reigns could beat all these jabronies

Drew kind of spouting some bull shit. AJ Styles took the TNA World Heavyweight Title around the world before he left TNA.

main-event is on

Lashley, the X-Division and World Champion vs James Storm, the King of the Mountain champion...all titles are on the line

Just getting to the main event, probably won't catch up to live.

Lashley won and is now the X-Division Champion, King of the Mountain Champion and World Champion

Aron Rex comes out to stare down Lashley to end the show...announcers speculate he will challenge Lashley for all 3 belts at BOUND FOR GLORY 2016.

Pretty good show, I think it was better than both Smackdown and Raw this week. Lashley as a triple crown champion is interesting. I'm not sure how you get all those titles off him so it should be intriguing to see how they do it. I'd honestly like to see Lashley get a Bellator Heavyweight Championship shot before Bound for Glory but I'm not sure if will happen. I like the way Aron Rex debuted and would like to see him start with a program against Eli Drake but if he starts out higher in the card I'd be fine with that as well.
