Impact Spoilers for Thursday with a Big Hearty WTF

**Mr. Nerfect** · 04-15-2008, 08:32 PM

I was expecting something awful and zany to go down. To be honest, sounds like a perfectly fine and logical show. I mean, it does suck that The LAX like won three #1 Contender's positions for the TNA World Tag Team Championship, and then had to share the title shot with Kaz and Eric Young, but that can be grounds for a feud between them, I guess. Maybe The LAX would be better off with a heel turn? They are no longer the incredibly the hot act they once were (namely due to TNA's treatment of them).

The Motor City Machine Guns are great, but they have been losing pretty consistently because they are being punished for alleged attitude problems. I don't expect it to last two much longer, and that we'll see Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley got after the belts soon enough.

I feel they are going to do Kurt Angle vs. AJ Styles at Sacrifice, so they had to get the belts off Tomko & AJ Styles. The LAX would have been a good choice, but Kaz sort of deserves a title, and as ridiculous as "Super Eric" is, it seems to be over with the iMPACT! fans (by the way, since Australia got iMPACT!, I know what people mean about them being annoying), and Young actually plays the character damn well. It's far from the worst thing on TNA. Eric Young also deserves a run with some title.

Petey Williams winning the X-Division Title in that fashion was actually pretty fucking cool. I was just asking about Steiner's X-Division Title shot, too. Williams getting the title as a reward for the make-over is justified, in my opinion. Besides, TNA has blown it with Lethal like three times now, even though it seems like they keep trying to get it right. And I just wasn't feeling Sonjay Dutt as a major antagonist in the X-Division. The same goes for Johnny Devine.

The Christian Cage/Rhino storyline is another one I saw coming, and one that actually makes sense. I'm not sure if they should go all-out, and have Rhino turn on Cage, but it might be an interesting story.

Throwing away Samoa Joe vs. Kurt Angle on iMPACT! will probably get a few complaints, but Angle and Joe have already fought repeatedly. They will always be a PPV caliber match, but by giving the fans one on iMPACT!, it might allow more people to get a taste for them as opponents. Plus, it might also draw some viewers. I know I'll be checking out the match. You've also got to get Angle out of the road before Steiner at the PPV, and it'll probably end up being a Televised Match of the Year candidate.

Sounds like TNA is heading towards the right direction, if you ask me.
