*Christy Hemme's face looks lilke she has washed it in baby oil every day. Yes I'd still hit it of course. *The Crippler Model Zima Martel Champ... is here! *The crowd is super dead. Like worse then they were for the KO's. That's what happens when you don't promote your title Mr Hogan. *MEH. *I like how Magnus is intejecting himself in everything that happens. These are some good promos. *The World Tag Team Champions of the World *THUNDERLIPS REFERENCE. FRICKIN *WIN*. *Great promo as well. *This match was thrown together last minute. It has good parts and all, yet if this was the WWE doing this we'd be making teddy long jokes ripping it. *There is no chance they take the titles from TWTTCOTW *Appletini of Doom!!!!!!!!!!!! *Bully Ray with a nice promo... even if I don't like him much. *Oh God, Hogan is going to come out isn't he. THey are going to piss all over everything good about the BFG series, aren't they? *Yep *Ok... So Jeff Hardy comes back from the dead? Well. I guess.  *Why even have Hogan come out anyway? I meang logisitcally, can't you just have the wounded Jeff Hardy come out the first time his music hits? *Better PPV then most of the WWE ones this year. As soon as the Sons of Jarrett showed up this thing went downhill superfast. 6.5/10. |

My biggest complaint about this one was it's a holding pattern ppv. It was neat to see a glorified no. 1 contender's match as the main event, but honestly that could've been another episode of Impact. Hell, it was in the Impact Zone. They just showed up to work on Sunday instead of Thursday. There were flaws for sure, but they are flaws I feel will only start getting irritating if TNA loses its strengths.
I can tell for a fact most fans just flat-out refuse to trust or try TNA at this point. The ship has sailed for most of the dorks of the IWC. They want to relive the Attitude Era forever and they can't, so they float from indie to indie and the minute that indie changes, then they hate it. They still keep following/watching WWE and TNA though, so they feel the constant need to get validation from hating them. Yes, WWE is terrible right now. Yes, TNA is better but flawed. At this stage though, TNA to me is about as good as WCW was between 1990-1993, and YES I know that is laughable to some, but the thing is, I liked WCW then. They had tons of stupid stuff like Arachnaman and the Ding Dongs, but they also had the Steiner Brothers, Dr. Death/Terry Gordy, Ricky Steamboat, Rick Rude, Big Van Vader, Ric Flair, Arn Anderson - all kinds of great stuff to make up for it. Even the early Hogan years weren't bad because of the undercard, and WCW at least delivered on the big, Hogan vs Flair feud WWF only teased.
So I have no qualms watching TNA when in two hours each week, I'll get four average to good TV matches, and once a month there will be 2 hours of 5-6 good to great ones.

I can see why people might be hesitant to give TNA a try; it was really bad for a very long time. I stuck with them through a lot of bullshit, myself, but quit on them when Hogan came in and suddenly, the Nasty Boys, Val Venis, and Orlando Jordan were jobbing out my favorite TNA guys, and, of course, the disposal of the six-sided ring (along with Hogan's very insulting attitude towards it and everything that had taken place there). Once bitten, twice shy, as it were. I'm glad I got over it myself and gave it another shot, because now, TNA is the company it should have always been. |
