Countdown Note: The 30 minute pre-game show promoted Sabu vs. Raven numerous times. I realize that it's pre-taped, but they should have done a live cut-in to make an announcement or at least run a crawl across the bottom of the screen. I praise them for trying to get the word out on their website and mailing list, but really, they should have made an announcement during the pre-game as well.
The TNA Spanish language announce team asked us not to pirate the PPV broadcast. They aired a video feature, including clips building to Sabu vs. Raven II Raven came to the ring and said that Sabu was a coward and was faking an injury to get out of wrestling Raven. Raven said that Sabu was doing exactly what the Sheik trained him to do, be a coward. Raven said that since Sabu was too scared to show up, Raven said that perhaps Sonjay Dutt would take up the gauntlet. Raven asked if Dutt was going to be the third coward, behind The Sheik and Sabu. Mike Tenay noted Sabu injured his back wrestling in Buffalo, New York. That would have been the three-way with Teddy Hart and AJ Styles. Dutt came out, taking the challenge. They showed two hooded individuals watching from the stage. Late in the match, Dutt hits Raven with an enziguiri and ascended to the top rope. Dutt came off the top with a flying clothesline. He began attaching two dog collars (attached to the ring ropes) to Raven as a way to trap him. He nailed Raven with several trash can shots. He threw Raven over the top but he landed on the apron. Dutt went to the top but Raven grabs him and slams him off the top through a table on the floor. Raven went to grab Sonjay, who threw a fireball in Raven's face. Dutt threw Raven over the ropes and choked him with the chain. The referee rang the bell. Your winner, Sonjay Dutt! The hooded individuals (New Church) stared at the ring. They went to a pre-taped interview with NWA champion Jeff Jarrett. Mike Tenay asked him about the Vince Russo-Dusty Rhodes friction. Jarrett said that Russo is doing everything he can to keep Dusty under control, but Dusty knows how to play the game. Tenay brought up Monty Brown's reaction to the Jarrett title defense against Jeff Hardy. Jarrett said Brown was a AA ballplayer who wants to try and make it in the major leagues. Tenay challenged that statement and Jarrett said that it takes more than a little charisma and one move to make it in this business. Tenay brought up the Jeff Hardy match, noting it was their first-ever meeting. Jarrett said that there have been a lot of big title matches in TNA and the odds were always stacked against him. He said that Hardy is the new favorite son of TNA and will be the biggest match in both their careers. He said that on 9/8 he will prove why he is the King of the Mountain. |
Whoa! Dutt beat Raven?.... just, wow.
|
Yeah really. Looks like they're finally gonna push Sonjay a little.

Scott Hudson interviewed Team Canada. Scott D'Amore said that from this moment earlier, Dusty Rhodes was a marked man for his comments on Impact challenging D'Amore. He bragged about Petey Williams X-Division championship win and they tried to get Hudson to join in on "Oh, Canada!"

As Dusty approached him, Williams pulled him out of the ring and they escaped through the crowd. Vince Russo made his way to the ring.

She shoved him offscreen and began interviewing Shane, asking him his thoughts on Kazarian. Shane began praising himself and Kazarian's sex appeal and good looks. He said that he and Kazarian are closer than Mary-Kate and Ashley and Venus and Serena. Kazarian said that they have a brotherhood based on trust, integrity and dropping the jaws of every woman they come across. Kazarian and Shane noted that they are facing Psicosis and LA Park next week. Big Vito came out and asked Hudson what Kazarian and Shane were doing just now.

Outside, Scott Hudson tried to get comment from Vince Russo and Dusty Rhodes. Russo said that he didn't want to comment and it was between them. Rhodes said that he wanted to know why Russo had a problem with him trying to do what the people wanted him to do. Russo said that he promised Dusty would always have a job, but Dusty was making it hard to make him stand by his word. Russo said it wasn't about the people, it's about the rules. Russo said that he didn't want Dusty to force him to do something he didn't want to do. Dusty said that they look at the business two different ways and if Russo has something to do, then do it. He said he was going to watch the next match and left. Russo didn't comment. They are teasing that Russo is going to fire Dusty but doesn't want to.
NWA Tag Team champions The Naturals vs. 3 Live Kru Mike Tenay praised The Naturals recent win streak saying that they are on the verge of proving to the wrestling world that they are the real deal. Jeremy Borash did the ring introductions. Konnan went to do his mic shtick but the Naturals attacked them. 3 Live Kru ran them out of the ring and Konnan and Jammes did their catch phrases that were hot and cool in 1997. 3 Live Kru hit a double back elbow on Andy Douglas.

Jammes kicked out. As D'Amore got to the stage, Dusty Rhodes met him and laid him out with elbows. As Andy Douglas was whipped into the ropes, Dusty hit him with the flagpole.

Scott Hudson interviewed Goldilocks. DEAR LORD, HELP ME. MAKE IT STOP. PLEASE. I BEG OF YOU. Goldilocks said that she wanted to keep collecting contracts.

Desire accepted and said that she would have someone next week. Goldilocks asked who and Desire said, "None of your business." DEAR LORD, HELP ME. MAKE IT STOP. PLEASE. I BEG OF YOU. This was such a bad segment. Abyss showed up at the end to get insulted and was all mad as they went to... They aired a video feature on Jeff Hardy vs. Jeff Jarrett |
Mike Tenay and Don West did the hard sell. They said Jeff Hardy and Jeff Jarrett would be appearing on Impact! this week. They pushed the AJ Styles DVD.

They went to a video feature on AJ Styles vs. Kid Kash. |

Jeff Hardy hit the ring on Brown and hit the Twist of Fate. Hardy hit a twisting moonsault on Kash. Hardy took down Brown again. The heels backed off as Hardy's music played. A great main event. This was the best match on TNA in weeks. TNA should just realize that there is one person who deserves to be the nucleus of the company, and that's AJ Styles. Kid Kash was awesome here too, and pulled out some great heel work as well. |
Thanks for the updates. It sounds like a pretty disappointing show to me, but I wasn't expecting much from it this week. I'll probalby try to download it and check out some of the matches anyway.

WAY TO GO Sonjay. :love:

The main event proves two things, Kid Kash is awesome at getting the crowd to hate him, and AJ Styles is TNA...him and Raven.
BTW, Mike Tenay finally called the Twist of Fate the Twist of Fate. |
who were the two hooded guys during Raven's match?
