James Storm interrupts and says he doesn't blame EC3 for being jealous. Storm talks about being in Impact since day one because he wants to be and he was out of the title picture for so long to give young guys a chance. Storm challenges EC3 to stand on his own because his family is no longer here to protect him. They get in to a brawl where EC3 low blows Storm. EC3 declares he is a Carter and this company needs him.

I like they're turning EC3 heel, and LAX/Decay should be fun.  But it sure is funny how Impact's response to Gronk at WM is to have Barnidge and Williams supporting Moose.  I have a hard time believing that wasn't intentional.  But that Grand Championship match sounds a big ol' clusterfuck.

Ah, I see Jarrett has decided the way to go over Dixie Carter one more time (In addition to Prichard badmouthing her without mentioning her by name on that first one back in March) is to make EC3 a heel, proudly announce he is a Carter, then book him into oblivion.

So, right now Impact has the Impact World Title, Grand Champion, X-Division champion, Tag Team champions, Knockouts Champion, GFW World Champion, GFW Next Gen Champion and GFW Women's champion all defended on their shows?  I bet Slammiversary is going to be the big Title Unification show.

Fun main event and farewell to Crazzy Steve. I will miss Decay, one of my favorite acts since they formed. The Swoggle heel turn was bizarre. Great to see Matt Sydal in the mix, thought he looked excellent in the short match with Trevor Lee. Also always liked Jax Dane, so looking forward to that addition as well. Moose/Davey was pretty good while it lasted too.

Well at least this show didn't feature non stop Josh/borash bullshit. I enjoyed Lee/Sydal although I thought they would make sydal's debut bigger. Really don't want to see another xenophobic LAX vs military American dudes feud but VOW has potential.  Speaking of LAX, it was kinda sad how little heat there was for the main event. I enjoyed it though. Rosemary took a vicious german from Diamante. Does anyone know what tag titles Fallah and Mario are holding? I don't think it's the GFW tag titles.

I am not sure about this trend where if you have a punk/alternative rock gimmick you are always screaming 'OI OI OI'.   Apparently the Jarretts think that punk was invented in Australia

 

Thinking Jeff Jarrett knows anything about punk is as amusing as thinking Vince would know anything about punk.

Agreed, though I thought he came across as a big star - maybe sometimes it's better sometimes just to let these things be organic. I felt he should have just beaten a jobber though, rather than the guy who just lost the X-Division Title in a 6-way.

I also thought 'surely WWE want to resign him', but then I saw him recently tweeting out about the anniversary of Albert Hoffman synthesizing LSD.

Update: Oh.

Next Smackdown exclusive PPV "Blitzkrieg Bop"? 

Then we get punk rock Ziggler with a patch on his gear that says Ramoans?

I briefly thought this was an all Samoan Ramones cover band and I got very excited.

I know, probably not anywhere near close enough, but here's this anyway.

So, the second show back on British telly, and it still doesn't make sense. Who are all these Champions? It's good to have every every Wrestler on the roster involved in a meaningful storyline, but that doesn't mean you should make every wrestler on the roster holding some title belt or other? And seriously lads, get Grado booked.
