I thought Abyss was talking about ECW guys being the "They" in his statements? Whatever!

Haven't watched TNA in a while and don't know what's going on but it read like a good show even before the TNA vs. ECW ruckus at the end.

Sounds like yet another week that Impact will top the best wrestling show of the week. On paper this show looks pretty groovy.

Free tv being the better show and PPV's that suck, something wrong in there.

Yes I agree with that. The TV shows are written so well and this past PPV was booked very solidly...how/why did they change the booking style for the PPV? Nutty.

They are following the death of WCW routine here as well. Sooner or later, they better realize it or they will end up with having to cancel all PPV's as that rumour a month ago claimed.

MCMG VS. Beer Money sounds like a reason to watch.
I still don't care about Abyss though so I really don't want to see RVD VS. Abyss. |

While of course there is every chance that the angle at the end (and maybe for a short while thereafter) will be fun to watch if it's done well, essentially re-hashing a 5 year old WWE storyline is quite tragic.

I like that TNA is at least trying. I am going to watch, because I want to give them another shot. Kurt Angle's current storyline is one of the best in professional wrestling right now. But it sounds like they are listening to their fans, and are actually giving tag team wrestling a stage, and doing what they can to put on some great matches.
I don't like that they announced Jeff Hardy vs. Jay Lethal for Hard Justice, only to give it away on free TV? There must be a catch here. Either it was a typo, or I think Hardy turns heel heading into Hard Justice, which is just a bad move. The ECW will be better to watch than read about, I am sure. I'll just mark out for an Al Snow sighting. While it may not be the freshest angle -- it sounds like it was a hot brawl. Plus, it depends what position they have the ECW guys take up. Face/heel lines are more blurred in TNA -- but if they give a "bitter" edge to a lot of the ECW guys, an angle like this might work a bit better. |

My biggest problem with TNA is that they have too many talents that they can't possibly do something with all of them.

Not everyone is going to get a huge push and become a main eventer. The guys who don't get the break, or don't get over well, are always the ones who are focused on by certains fans. They disregard the ones who are pushed, and their realized potential. Midcard is a dirty word among many fans and that's a shame. |

I agree but still, there tends to be an infatuation with the Sean O'Haires and Shelton Benjamins, while there is resentment for the gifted prospects who have their potential realized and see a push.

Figured I'd put this in here.
From PWInsider: TNA Impact for 7/22 *We open with the standard pyro as Taz and Mike Tenay welcome us. *TNA Global champion Rob Terry vs. AJ Styles. Pretty decent with Kaz trying help Styles every chance he gets. At one point, Terry does push ups with Styles. In the end, Styles uses the ropes to get the pin and become the new Global champion. Fortune gets their first title. *Sarita and Madison Rayne are speaking backstage about their issues with Velvet Sky and Taylor Wilde, respectively. Sky shows up. Sky accuses Sarita of being the motorcycle woman. They mention the Knockouts Tag Team titles will be defended tonight. *Angelina Love and Taylor Wilde vs. Sarita and Madision Rayne. Before the match, Earl Hebner announces that since the TNA Board of Directors has no proof it was actually a member of the Beautiful People who interfered at Victory Road, the Knockouts championship must go back to Rayne. Love hands the belt over to Hebner and Rayne is champion again. The match goes back and forth. Love and Taylor win. The Motorocycle woman arrives and helps beat down Love and Wilde. Velvet Sky and Lacey Von Erich come out on the stage as the heels are leaving and Rayne convinces Lacey to leave with her, leaving Sky alone on the ramp. *Mick Foley, Rhino, Raven, Stevie Richards and Tommy Dreamer are seen arriving at the Impact Zone. *Kurt Angle vs. Hernandez. Pretty good match. Lots of near falls but in the end, Angle locks in the anklelock and Hernandez taps. I'd assume this was a ranking match and Angle is after #6 next. *After the match, Kevin Nash comes out and calls out Jeff Jarrett. After a minute or so, Jarrett comes out. Nash says that he thought about what Jarrett said last week, but that it wasn't Sting who is the log in the TNA punchbowl, but Jarrett. Jarrett says he doesn't know what Nash is talking about. Nash blames Jarrett for the entire Scott Hall and Sean Waltman contract issues. He tells Jarrett he is a selfish son of a b***h and walks off. Jarrett is left speechless. *Samoa Joe vs. Jeff Hardy for the first time ever, so they are giving away a PPV bout for free. The match starts off with Joe chants then Hardy chants start, building to dueling chants as the two battle around ringside. Pretty back forth between the two with lots of near falls. Joe takes advantage by keeping it mat based wrestling so Hardy cannot get his high flying stuff going. Lots of powerful chops by Joe. More near falls. Joe has the crossface locked in but hardy gets his foot to the ropes. Fans chanting for Hardy. They keep going and the bell rings for a time limit draw. They keep going at it as the referees try to keep them apart. *Mr. Anderson pinned Matt Morgan with the Mic Check. Morgan attacks Anderson after the match when he calls for the mic and bloodies him. Anderson is helped out by the trainers. *TNA Tag Team champions The Motor City Machineguns vs. Beer Money in a No Rules Street Fight. Match #2 of 5 match series. Beer Money out first in t-shirt and jeans with kneepads on out, Next are the Guns dressed in shirts and their wrestling outfits. The fight goes straight up the ramp immediately. One of the Guns hold Storm so the other can sprint up the ramp with a kick. Beer Money uses a chair to take back over. Beer Money clothesline referee Brian Hebner. The Guns use a trash can on Storm. Earl Hebner runs in but is bumped and there's no referee. Storm cracks a beer bottle over one of the Gun's heads. They drag a ref over to count and get the pinfall. Beer Money are up 2-0. *Christy Hemme interviewed TNA champion Rob Van Dam. Both mentioned the ECW letters as Van Dam said ECW was where he first became a star and it was great to be back with the boys again last week. *TNA President Dixie Carter came out to address what happened last week with Tommy Dreamer. She notes that she had invited the former ECW stars to TNA. Dreamer put over ECW legends like Taz and others. He said that "One Night Stand" inn 2005 was closure for him but Vince McMahon had to go and bring it back and forced Tommy to watch his close friends and family get fired one by one until Dreamer couldn't take it anymore. He said that his friends have been begging him for two years to come to TNA but he has two daughters now and couldn't pass up the big paycheck he was getting. When he came to Slammiversary and met with the talent before the show and felt the spirit of the fans, he knew this was the place to be. Dreamer was crying during the promo.Dreamer said that several years ago, they were promised things that didn't come true and it wasn't fair to the wrestlers or the fans. He asked Carter to give everyone "one last night." Carter agreed, but only if the former ECW crew have "full control" of the PPV. Dreamer promised they were going to take the Impact Zone "to the Extreme." Abbyss interupts and says "they are not happy. This wasn't supposed to happen and they are downright pissed." Abyss says it was Dixie's fault and he goes after her but Van Dam attacked him. Everyone hits their finisher on Abyss. Devon comes out and they do the "Get the Tables" and RVD hits the Five Star Frog Splash. |
