I respect your opinion, but I think you should watch some of the stuff that went on at that PPV. Sure, the guys main eventing may be seen as washed up rejects, but there is some serious talent going on down there.

Sean Waltman vs. Jerry Lynn was a damn inspiration. Say what you will about Waltman, but for a guy that go "please fuck off" heat named after him, he has done a complete 180. I would love to see this guy get another crack (no, that was not a pun) in the WWE, or become a focus of TNA programming. He has turned his life and his career around in such a short time I don't give a crap what he was like backstage, or how he slacked off in the ring, his present and future look extremely bright to me. And Lynn is just Lynn, and I wasn't surprised by his end, but it was nice to see some stuff from him, because I am very uneducated in his work.

Austin Aries and Christopher Daniels put on a good showing, and Aries is perhaps one of the brighter stars to look out for. He showed me some of the brilliance I praise WWE superstars for, creating innovative spots that don't require flipping and spinning. He can do all that, but he showed a general appreciation and knowledge of the actual theory side as well.

AJ Styles and Samoa Joe made marks out of me. The Muscle Buster is perhaps the best finisher around today, and for a big guy, he moves so well. If he did go to the WWE, he would be drawing some fans, I'm telling you. The guy has his own image that he has molded for himself, and it is something that will seldom be duplicated. I just hope he can pull off an Ultimate X match, because that would be an all-time classic.

Christopher Daniels may be the best sports entertainer in the world not under WWE contract. I liked the way he ran out to attack AJ Styles, when he saw him beat Joe (albeit no referee), just so he could get an easier title defense at Unbreakable. Plus he might just have the best wardrobe in this business.

The main event was really fun, and I must admit, I am a complete mark for sudden Gores, especially through tables. Believeable finishers are awesome, and The Gore is just that. Rhino is in the best shape of his career, perhaps, and it would make perfect sense to put the NWA Title on him at Unbreakable, because I really don't think they should go with Jarrett at Bound for Glory. Raven vs. Jarrett is OK, but don't put it in the main event.

It may not make too much sense putting guys like Jeff Hardy or Raven in the main event, but when you are constantly building up guys like Abyss, Lance Hoyt, Ron Killings, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Christopher Daniels, Austin Aries, Monty Brown, etc. to take over, the guys they have now are decent torch-passers, provided they do in fact pass the torch.

Personally, I'd ask guys like Jarrett and Raven help younger guys get started and teach them the basics of structuring a solid match, etc. Jarrett isn't awful, and Raven has excellent psychology. Both could really help tame the younger guys into main eventers. With people like Shane Douglas and Larry Zbysko helping out as well, you have enough veteran minds to really craft some great future stars.

TNA is a machine that will keep rolling, IMO. Right now they are in the cross-ove rmethod of hanging on tot he WWE dropouts and making their own icons, but I think they will make it.
