Abyss and Jeff Hardy’s neverending brawl
- So to follow up the bloody angle from last week, we get Jeff Hardy’s ass?
- I like the visual of the vacuum cleaner in the ring.
- It would be nice if they had the “Completely Inappropriate” censor box from Wipeout.
- Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, you’re actin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground.
- Who gave the security guys nightsticks?
Eric Bischoff promo
- So a brawl that means nothing, and a Bischoff promo? Not the way to follow up that angle. They should have a scarred Tommy Dreamer demanding Fourtune to face him like men, not the Ken Doll.
- So why wasn’t Abyss barred from the building?
- A tournament, eh? Why not invite all ten men and give 1 and 2 a bye? Reward the better workers instead of punishing up with bad matches?
TNA World Title Tournament Quarterfinals
The Freak Rob Terry vs Jeff Hardy
- They seem to go back and forth on when Terry will sell. If Kazarian can’t put a dent in him, how can Jeff Hardy?
- It’s okay to have gaps in logic, but not these gaping holes, espeically when it comes to your world title.
- I certainly didn’t believe that they’d make Rob Terry world champion, but they did put him into the tournament.
Hulk Hogan on the phone
- Yes Hulk, please quit!
TNA World Title Tournament
Jay Lethal vs Ken Anderson
- It would be nice if they told us what the hell the current rankings were so I could see how they bracketed it, but no, that would make too much sense.
- Good back and forth action. With time, this could be a great match.
- Knew Lethal was done after the missed dropkick.
- So Anderson vs Hardy again? I can’t look ahead without a bracket? Can we get a frigging bracket, TNA? Or does your graphics department only do stuff for the damn store?
Angelina Love interview
- There really wasn’t anything to do that.
- If they keep cutting women, there won’t be much of a Knockouts division, will there?
Nice video package on the Machineguns. Wish I didn’t have to wait another week to see them work again.
TNA Knockouts Championship rematch: Madison Rayne with bodyguard vs Angelina Love with Velvet Skye
- So, is Velvet a babyface now?
- We’ll find out who’s under that helmet as soon as we find out who was driving the white Hummer.
- Really not liking the streaks in Velvet’s hair.
- So, will Velvet get a title shot now?
- I think they just set up a tag match.
Ric Flair and Fourtune promo/Dixie Carter interrupts with EV 2.0
- I guess they’re finally explaining Williams and Morgan’s appearances.
- So the only reason they beat up EV 2.0 is because they don’t like hardcore wrestling?
- Actually, Dixie, that’s a soundstage at Universal, which is owned by NBC. You just rent it, hun.
- So James Maritado gets a contract? And Mamaluke?
- This is a fantastic Foley promo. And I wish the same thing you do Mick.
- Not looking forward to Tommy and AJ.
Kurt Angle promo
- Um, Kurt, you can’t retain the TNA World Title unless you already have it. You don’t have it. You want to “regain” the title.
TNA World Heavyweight Title Tournament Quarterfinals
Douglas Williams vs Kurt Angle
- Doug is one hell of a worker. Another match I’d want to see with more time.
- Angle’s babyface comeback was the most explosive one I’ve seen him have in a while.
- Wow. Angle blocking Chaos Theory and applying the anklelock was beautiful. Kurt has been on fire recently. Hopefully this really is his last big run and he gets a proper retirement.
Kevin Nash and Sting promo/Jarrett interrupts/Hogan gloms on again/Fourtune kills everyone
- Horizontal stripes? Really Nash?
- With EV 2.0 in the mix, the median age of TNA’s locker room is closer to 50 than ever.
- *snore*
- Actually, ratings are flat since Bischoff and Hogan showed up.
- So this is Fourtune’s new gimmick? Sabu should sue.
Tommy Dreamer, Raven, Stevie Richards and Mamaluke backstage
- So, we’re supposed to believe that Raven and Tommy are on good terms again.
- Mamaluke is all over Impact.
TNA World Title Tournament Quarterfinals
Matt Morgan vs The Pope D’Angelo Dinero
- So, Samoa Joe and Abyss have completely fallen out of the Top 8? As much as I appreciate Abyss not being there, where’s the methodology to explain a fall from 1 to below 8? And wasn’t Joe top 8 two weeks ago?
- I love watching these two. Morgan has finesse to match his size and Pope is just so fluid.
- Wow, Pope with a huge upset. That was the best match thus far tonight.
About time we get a bracket. Hardy vs Angle and Anderson vs Pope. Nothing new, nothing exciting.
Mick Foley promo
- I like the passion in Mick’s promos recently.
- I also can’t wait for his new book. I want to hear more about the TNA locker room.
AJ Styles vs Tommy Dreamer
- Couldn’t they do a Jimmy Hart version of Man in the Box? Would it have been that difficult?
- Not much to say about the match so far. It’s a major mismatch, but it’s watchable. I could have done without Tommy’s cut getting reopened.
- Wait, how did AJ fall out of the top eight as well?
- Utter clusterfuck. And that kid had a Justin Bieber haircut. Parents, if you love your children, don’t let them cut their hair like Justin Bieber.
