DreamBroken

Just finishing watching this one. I had thought the whole show would just be this full one night tournament, did not realize it would instead be just 4 first round matches and a 4 way Ladder Final followed by deathmatch stuff afterwards with long clean up breaks in between. Solid enough show overall. The initial 4 womens matches were all good and all felt different from one another. Kamille/Deonna best match overall, Ludark/Lindsay a fun brawl, and Sage always comes off like a star, love her matches. Figured it was between Kamille and Taya. Results:

Ospreay is taking 2 in a row for me with the Dax match last week and now this six man. Glad to see more love for Marina Shafir matches in general

Nia Jax announced on twitter that she will no longer be a part of this

plus Hirooki Goto & Yoshihashi vs. QT & Aaron Solo, so Revolution style 3 match buy in then 9 match main show. I like Kanemaru, but seems extra weird now that Archer is left off completely, considering Desperado came in with Archer for the attack 2 weeks ago and he would've fit the dynamic here vs. Keith & Swerve

This show flew by quick but set up everything for Against All Odds real fast too. Mia/Chelsea was good. I'm liking the Deonna/Chelsea pairing a lot so far. Callihan and Moose going to Raven's Clockwork Orange House of Fun rules, I can only hope that means actually bringing in Raven too. Madison Rayne's fractured nose was a freak accident spot like Rhea Ripley's concussion. I was hoping for more babyface Gisele Shaw, but this is a pretty good spot for her too. Another solid Honor No More six man in the main event, always glad to see James Storm back in the mix for however long it lasts. I liked that they actually explained Chris Harris not wrestling as much as I wish we had another AMW run.

Lady Frost just announced she has requested her release from Impact

I feel like ZSJ should be going over, assuming there's a plan to eventually run the Bryan match, so I don't think it'd be Claudio in that case, coming in and losing straight away. I don't think Gresham would be a hyped surprise since he's been on AEW TV already (and also ROH Champion)

Coin drop! THE RAINMAKER has arrived! Amazing moment, HUGE pop, loved all the crowd reaction shots. Felt like this show did a ton and building to the excitement for Forbidden Door, definitely had a WCW/NJPW vibe. We've got Okada plus Shingo and Hiromu on the card after all! Absolutely loved Sting's team being called "The Dudes with Attitudes" again. Trios tag opener was super fun, nonstop action. I wonder who gets left out of Blood and Guts for Bryan's replacement since they have Kingston/Ortiz/Santana/Yuta/Moxley. Christian with a pretty epic heel promo. I appreciate the attempt at long term storytelling from Double or Nothing last year and he waited over a year for revenge, even if it didn't quite make sense that Jungle Boy took so much from Christian, considering Christian main evented the next PPV after that anyway. I wish Luke Perry was still around, he'd be great getting involved in this. Hangman/Silas was good stuff while it lasted, thought Silas looked pretty great and definitely hope to see him kept around. Toni/Marina short but solid as well, agreed on the Toni Storm corner butt smash being the new most brutal move in the biz. Great main event and awesome show-closing chaotic brawl. Very much looking forward to Forbidden Door after everything on this show, feels way more stacked suddenly. Only wish Archer could still find himself a spot on the card, considering he's the AEW guy that's going to the G1.

Nice!

Those are the top two matches for sure. Probably nothing 'must see' but the 10 man was a lot of fun, boosted by all the 'outside' shenanigans involved. Josh/Young was a solid main event, a nice TNA Tribute match with them using all the past top guys finishers which did create some variety in the offense.

Reverse battle royal was amusing, a waste of the greatness of Steve Maclin though - sad that he didn't get a bigger spot on this show than that. Glad to see some good throwbacks that we don't usually see... David Young, Chase Stevens, and Slash's entrance with Father Mitchell was cool. Great victory for Speedball in a typically fun Ultimate X spotfest, figured it was his time to win the title coming off his first loss to Trey on Impact. Pop for the surprise Scott Hudson appearance! Sami/Moose was a solid brawl. Kinda wanted Moose to get a big win back here even though it was Sami's big comeback and understandably he'd go over. Weak, did not expect the Briscoes to lose the tag titles so soon and for yet another Good Brothers reign. Kind of disappointing as I thought the Briscoes were in for a long run since they were so fresh to this division. Huge pop for the post-match arrival of America's Most Wanted though! I hoped they were coming for a full time return and to set up a triple threat but it was not to be. Great to hear their classic theme again. DAVEY RICHARDS~! Loved that choice, perfect to combat Eddie. When Dixie showed up, I almost thought she was gonna introduce EC3. This was awesome and an absolute blast all the way to the finish. Loved the triple submissions spot and the eventual triple finishers. Only felt weird still to have PCO in this spot with Honor No More when he's been more or less a face for awhile now otherwise. Kaz hitting the Flux Capacitor on PCO was a terrifying looking spot, but cool to bust out his classic finish. Wonderful little moment for Brian & Earl Hebner to get to stand tall with the point up for Dave. Awesome that AJ got to do a little video message too. Extremely disappointing ending to Tasha Steelz reign as champion. Jordynne's been doing some of her best work recently but I felt like she was the least likely winner here. Didn't expect that all. Deonna and Chelsea took a hell of a death bump through the tables, looked wild. Felt like they didn't do a whole lot with the whole penalty box gimmick, was just kinda there. Main event was never in doubt, made doubly so after 4 title changes already in the night which seemed unnecessary. But the exchange of past TNA finishers was great, culminating in the Shades of Double J! guitar shot. Angle Slam on Doering through the table was epic too. Nice, definitive finish. Pretty fun show overall despite some questionable outcomes, with the 5 on 5 being the absolute highlight. Full Slammiversary Results:

Due to injury, Jack Evans is out of Ultimate X, replaced by the returning Andrew Everett. Sad to lose Evans, was looking forward to him having a possible resurgence in Impact if it was more than a one off, but happy for Everett as a big fan of his previous Impact run.

Dax/Ospreay takes it this week, they could not be denied!

Appreciated! Always glad to carry the Impact flag here the past 10+ years, to help anyone that may not watch still be able to follow along, and always good to see more people like you catch/enjoy some Impact! They've had high and lows but most of the time is pretty enjoyable

Opening tag had some rough spots but Tasha shines as always and was the star of the match all around. Looking forward to the Queen of the Mountain. Trey/Speedball was awesome. I'm down with Speedball for X Champ. Masha is always killer to watch, great squash. Solid tag matches. Loved seeing Impact legend Garett Bischoff~! make his return. Nick Aldis kind of an underwhelming pick for the Impact originals tag but that works I guess. Really good closing segment and final build to Slammiversary. Good stuff from both guys and I got a good laugh out of D'Amore suddenly punching out Deaner. Blood added to the effective beatdown even if it seems like an obvious defense for Josh. Slammiversary should deliver the goods, hoping for as many past stars as possible to celebrate Impact 20.

Co-signed. Emma/Asuka from Takeover London in Dec 2015 is one of my all time favorite NXT matches. Real gem of a match. Emma & Dana were magic together.
