And then he declared a no contest even though Angle's cut was next to nothing, not to mention, they just threw the 20 minute time limit out there, no mention of the match even having one, I mean hell have the announcer throw that out there as part of the ring intros (I mean announcing that a match has a 20 minute time limit is pretty old school, now maybe they did do that but I didn't hear it and they definitely didn't announce he Pope vs Anderson match has having one. That being said even with a bit of foreshadowing that still would have been one of the worst finishes in wrestling history )

It was just bad, shitty, awful booking, worse than a Dusty finish, the crowd should have been booing instead they were counting down I mean come on., show some pride in your product fans, expect more don't just lap that shit up, you'll never get a better smarter product if you just blindly cheer every asinine twist TNA throws at ya. Seriously,the crowd through out the event was probably one of the lames crowds I've ever seen

:/ that crowd was actually pretty hot... Lots of "TNA" chants, "that was awesome," etc.

The reason they didn't announce that the match had a twenty minute time limit was probably because of the whole Somoa Joe thing a few weeks ago. And I believe that in TNA all matches have some time limit, though it's not announced. I agree that they should announce it before every match and maybe they should go back to having a clock on the screen... but I think that that would make us always think that time is going to be a factor, and although that adds an interesting element I think it would also take something away from the match.

Angle's cut didn't really look like nothing to me... It looked like he was laying in a pool of it when Hardy had the Boston crab on him. To each his own I guess. Bischoff announced that the match had to have a winner before Angle had the cut, before the two were too exhausted to go on. Had Bischoff said that the match was going to be a draw and then a few minutes later added ten minutes to the clock, or something of that nature, then it would be stupid. But he didn't. It made perfect sense what they did with that match.

I don't see how it was awful booking. We're talking about it aren't we? It was as interesting finish. What would WWE had done? Had both men be counted out and then we'd find out what they're gonna do about it the following night on Raw via an email. Yeah.. it could be way worse! lol

A lot of you guys seem to hate TNA just in general. Jeez, just stop watching it then. If you really cannot appreciate what they're doing, then don't watch it. ROH is on weekly, and WWE has plenty of other shows to keep you entertained.

The match was great. I saw what they tried to do with the ankle lock spots and the crowd was hot. I enjoyed it for the most part. In general, TNA has better matches than any other promotion when we're not forced to watch the ECW retreads or Nash, Jarrett, Hogan, etc...

However, the ending was SHIT and just because you're talking about the SHIT doesn't take away from the fact that it's still SHIT.

First of all, they spent weeks hyping the importance of this tournament in determining "who can take RVD's spot, guide the company to the top, blah blah blah" so why the fuck would you turn around and give such an important match 20 minutes? On a PPV?

A crowd can halfway expect to see a time limit draw on television or at a house show, so it isn't necessary to announce it beforehand. Especially when the match is of little significance to a long term storyline.

In this case, if there's a 20 minute time limit it would make more sense to inform the crowd of that beforehand so they aren't like what the fuck when all of a sudden the co- main event is cut off due to going over the time limit.

Furthermore, if you really had a hard on for a stupid ass idea like a time limit for the co- main event in a tournament of such "great importance," wouldn't it make more sense to put that match on last and maybe go to the time limit finish ten minutes early or purchase 15 minutes extra PPV time.? That way you could at least game the live crowd and marks for some cheap pops.

Example: "Ladies and gentlemen, due to pay per view time limit restraints, this match is officially a draw." Then have Dixie (since she can't keep her ass off t.v. now) say something like "We need this to have a winner blah blah blah, I'm buying extra time." That way the crowd cheers instead of saying "What the fuck?" Hell, if you did it like that, the blood angle would have even made more sense.

That was actually the first time I'd seen a full TNA event like ever, and I will not be watching more, so don't worry about that. My point with the crowd is that they were lapping up every bad angle, every awkward spot the PPV had to give them, they didn't com off as hardcore fantatics they came across as morons to me anyway.

As for what you could do instead oh I don't know a double pin on a german suplex works just as well, hell if Bischoff wants to get involved have him restart only for another double pin to occur, it's not great but it's a lot better than what happened. Time limit draws should never ever happen on PPV, ever. Period.

And for the record having people talking about what happened does not mean it was a great thing. IE Finger poke of Doom.

TNA is amazing. The best wrestling I've seen in years. It's a shame that people fear change and get mad when TNA does their booking a little differently than WWE.

I really enjoyed the best of 5 series between MCMG and Beer Money

and also some those matches could be considered for match of the year.
