They are making a point of keeping Roode and Storm from being in the ring at the same time. I like it.

At least once each segment tonight, Taz has begun to randomly talk about the Knockouts and how hot they are. Tenay finally calling him out on it. "What are you talking about? We're in the middle of our six man tag main event!"

Faces win. Storm pins Roode though. Not a good call. Would rather have kept them apart even to the end.

And then Bully Ray gets the last word on Storm with a chairshot. Says that Storm isn't going to make it to Lockdown.
Show over. |

Such cookie-cutter booking. TNA literally makes me nauseous to watch sometimes. Why don't they try?

Yeah, but breaking up Beer Money was a good thing, not because it was a bad team or anything, it was likeable, but because of a successful turn for Bobby Roode to become a popular heel champion, a step in the right direction to breathe life into the company. |

Here's one of their obvious errors, I think TNA doesn't really hold high standards for most of the talent, maybe they don't rehearse or there isn't enough discipline so that the talent won't fuck up. Either way, when the talent does fuck something up, they don't cut it or make the one at fault fix the problem, they leave it on the taping to broadcast on Thursday and on PPVS. Seriously? There's no just excuse for not using the days before the broadcast to patch up the footage. PPVs I can understand, but Jeff Hardy really REALLY put a big hurting to the company with his self-hazed championship thirty second match, and got off way too easy for it, matter of fact, was a couple of months before he got right back on TV again. Lack of discipline, poor to no editing work for television, and this... absolutely terrible promos for upcoming matches, they don't motivate the viewer to want to come and see the match through.

Really, is Jeff Hardy so valuable that he warrants the huge black eye that he gives the company? Makes no sense.

And Skippord wins again.
I'm looking forward to watching Impact this week. It would kind of make sense to have Velvet Sky, Mickie James, Tara & Brooke Tessmacher vs. Angelina Love, Winter, Sarita & Rosita at Victory Road. I mean, it's a clusterfuck, but if I were going to order a TNA PPV (and I'm not about to), then I'd want to see Velvet Sky grind against the ropes at least once. |

So which PPV is TNA's Wrestlemania, or have they no hype for one PPV more than another?

I think it's either Slammiversary or Bound for Glory.

Wiki says Bound For Glory is their "premiere" event.
It generally did not receive the kind of hype/lavish production/pulling out all the stops that Mania gets. At least back when I used to watch a few years ago. |

Which is kinda lame. How the show that celebrates the anniversary of the company isn't the "premiere" event is beyond me. Anything else is just a name basically. At least Slammiversary has some deeper meaning and wouldn't be the biggest show just for the sake of having a "Biggest show".

Yeah. I thought it was Slammiversary too. Which it probably should be, since everything else is just a random name with no meaning behind it.

I think it might actually help for them to have that Bound For Glory as the mark of the end of TNA's wrestling year, like Wrestlemania does for WWE. Then again... doubt there's a big list of celebrities who consider taking part in TNA PPVs, which might have actually brought more viewers too. Seeing Mike Tyson participating in WWF was what brought me to sit down and watch the whole Raw is War show.

Lockdown, Slammiversary and Bound For Glory are sort of like their "big three," I guess. Personally, I wish they would do more to define their PPVs. I like the idea of Destination X, and stuff like that. They could do some sort of tournament for a PPV, as well.

Will not be able to watch this week's until Sunday. You will all have to wait for my thrilling commentary. Too bad I have had some of the show spoiled already.

I haven't watched this week's Impact! Wrestling, but I'm sort of feeling like this should be the Lockdown card:
TNA World Heavyweight Championship Bobby Roode (c) vs. James Storm Non-Title Match Sting vs. Austin Aries TNA World Tag Team Championship Samoa Joe & Magnus (c) vs. AJ Styles & Ken Anderson Three-Way Match for the TNA Knockout Championship Madison Rayne (c) vs. Gail Kim vs. ODB Lethal Lockdown Jeff Hardy, Abyss, Kazarian & Crimson vs. Kurt Angle, Bully Ray, Christopher Daniels & Matt Morgan Gunner vs. Garett Bischoff X-Division Showcase Alex Shelley vs. Anthony Nese vs. Kid Kash vs. Mark Haskins vs. Shannon Moore vs. Zema Ion |

Roode, keep doing what he's been doing
Austin Aries - good X division champ Alex Shelley would ge good for an ongoing feud ODB and Eric Young skits are good! Knockouts good, though some need to work on the acting and mic skills, matches are fine as they are Crimson and Morgan should have a feud that leads to World Champ contendership James Storm should have a good match with Roode, but not win the championship He and AJ need to keep a feud with Immortal Bully Ray and Hardy do not need to be in the contendership anymore, but should have a bloody feud with one another, given both have the reptuation of being part of legendary tag teams at one time in their lives and needs to be focused on. Maybe after the feud, these two could be a real badass tag team. Sting should not be World Champion anymore, but stick with the physically-active executive position, maybe even coerce Garrett Bischoff as being his successor by upstaging his father as an exec Joe and Magnus should have a feud with a Daniels and Kazarian, or a team formed from Gunner and Kazarian The wrestlers are not the problem, nor have they ever been. Poor management is to blame for a company's failures, hence Russo, but it may take some time to heal from the problem that was dealt with. |

Nevermind, apparently he will wrestle on this show.
Bisch saying he got a tag match made to "put an end to it". Gunner and a Partner vs Garrett and a Partner. Kinda scratching my head over that one. If he wanted to "put an end to it", just have Gunner vs Garrett. |

Angle coming out. Will apparently be Gunner's partner. Which means that Jeff Hardy will most likely team with Garrett.
Also, it has been three weeks I have been watching, and I have no idea why Bischoff seems to hate his son and wants him gone. Just seems to me that on the whole, the talents of Bischoff and Flair could be used to put over somebody more talented than Garrett seems to be. Though I haven't seen Garrett in the ring yet. Seems pretty "meh" outside of it. |

Sting seems like he is legitimately insane. Thought it was supposed to be more of a "controlled insanity". But seems pretty batshit crazy this week.
