Breaking News: Kevin Nash Out Of TNA PPV Tonight?
From Wrestlezone.com:
Source: WrestlingObserver.com -- Dave Meltzer is reporting that Kevin Nash, who is scheduled to be facing Jeff Jarrett tonight at TNA's ?Bound For Glory' pay per view, was yesterday rushed to hospital. -- Not much is known at the moment, other than he was feeling bad after the fan festival, and proceeded to call 911. He was then rushed to hospital, and it is likely he won't be able to make his scheduled appearance at the pay per view. -- TNA are now working on a substitute main event, with plans very much up in the air. The match, scheduled to have MMA star Tito Ortiz as the special enforcer, had been pushed heavily on Spike TV's iMPACT over the past few weeks. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Why am I not surprised? |

I hope he's okay. I'd make a torn quad joke, but if he ends up dying, I'd feel like shit, so yeah.
Now where is Raven when you need him? |

If this is true, I hope Kevin Nash gets well soon.
I think this COULD be a work, though. Raven could substitute, but I'd rather see Samoa Joe, Christopher Daniels, AJ Styles or the winner of the Ultimate-X Match (it could lead to an NWA/X-Title unification) getting the title shot. ...Or Monty Brown. |

Although, I can see it being a HUGE boost for a guy like Abyss to go out their for a second time that night, give his body to the fans for a second time, and actually win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Hell, if Abyss went out there and squashed Jarrett, it could be the crowning moment of TNA. Abyss vs. Monty Brown? I think that could be money for TNA. |

Meh....I don't think it much matters who's in the main event tonight. JJ is going to retain.
It actually seems like the TNA is re-doing some of their past (more effective?) storylines for the benefit of their new viewers. So I have a feeling we're going to see Raven/Jarrett II over the next few months, with Raven going through hell for his chance at the NWA belt, and hopefully this time NWA gets it right and puts Raven over in the end. |

This is TNA's chance to create a brand new star, I hope they do it. Just another random note, can you imagine if TNA used this to light a fire under the guys? Can you imagine Dixie Carter telling everyone that the best performer of the night will likely be given the title shot later that night. You could enhance some of the performances greatly (if they aren't already at their peak). |

Here's the thing, This could be a work. Because WWE and TNA have been exchanging shots at one another for the past few weeks. I looked it up at TNA's website and they even have it up there. Why put it on your main page unless to stop the rumors other sites might be providing. I see either this was their plan all along and Zybysko has no choice but to put Raven or Styles in it, or Nash is there and wrestles

Not a work. As an up and coming Professional Wrestling company on National TV, they would be dumb fucks to advertise Kevin Nash and Jarret for the World Title and then not have Nash in the match. That's how you lose fans in the quickets way possible.
Nash is hurt, so they have an excuse. And putting it on thier website is smart so at least some people would know why he won't be there tonight if he's not. |

If it is a work, Kevin Nash will probably cost JJ the title, just as a "Hey, I wouldn't have done it on my own, but I've made sure he isn't the Champion" victory. This could lead to a solid feud between the two away from the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. I can see what you're saying about the advertising, but I don't think anyone will feel completely cheated if Nash doesn't wrestle. TNA have created intrigue around their main event (whether this is deliberate or not is still undetermined), moreso than they had going for it before, and I think that's what TNA needs to do to seperate itself from the WWE. The E can't exactly switch Kurt Angle in their main event match at Taboo Tuesday without it being called bullshit, so immediately it is something TNA should do (if they haven't already) just to try it out and see how it works out. |

Second of all, do you really place a lot of faith in those polls on what the fans want to see. I mean, what if the same fan voted 45 times? What is there the same fans who are chanting every single wrestlers name on Impact every week? Doubt those fans represent your "average" wrestling fans. I would think those would visit the TNA website casually are the hardcore TNA fanbase. Third of all, delievering surprise matches are nice and all if you don't do them AFTER ADVERTISING A MATCH FOR THE PAST MONTH. How stupid would that be? Any booker will tell you that's the biggest no no that a booker could do in the business. What if there were 400 people that ordered to see Nash. And assuming Nash wasn't hurt and they made the story up, they replaced Nash with Billy Gunn. Do you think those fans are going to trust TNA to put in the guys they have advertised the next time? You NEVER want to lose any fans, even if its just one. And False Advertising will lose fans. Yea, TNA needs to seperate itslef from WWE, but not nuy making moronic booking decisions and faking people out. Ask WCW Last edited by Loose Cannon; 10-23-2005 at 06:00 PM. |

If they have no other major professional wrestling name lined up for a replacement, then Raven is the next best choice.
1. He has national exposure and name value. 2. He does not have a match for tonight. 3. Jarrett-Raven was a pretty good match the first time around. |

I really hope they don't do something like have Cassidy Riley come out as Raven's representative, then get squashed, only for Raven to come out and exact revenge, only to get taken out by AMW, which draws out Team 3D ("THEY'RE NOT DEAD, MIKE!"), which leads to Team Canada coming out, then the 3 Live Kru, then... You get the idea.
Available Talent Not Already Booked For A Match (in order of likelihood, not including Knockouts/managers) 1) Raven 2) Sean Waltman 3) Team 3D Member 4) Kip James 5) Jerry Lynn 6) Cassidy Riley 7) Shocker 8) Jerrelle Clark 9) Mikey Batts |
