I normally don't read spoilers but I checked these out to see if I would even bother tuning in for the next few months and so far the answer is No. Any chance they splice in some more matches from NOAH and AAA or did that deal go with Double J?

I would think they would for some of the later episodes if/when Impact guys work those companies again, similar to how the last round worked where Impact was taped through October in August and they ended up using matches from NOAH and Border City that took place in October.

This is really just archetypal TNA.

You don't berate a guy for always choking after he WINS a match, people.

Is Mundo/Impact/Morrison/Hennigan/Nitro a heel, shoving the rookie and bringing up his opponent's dad? Is Del Rio a heel for badmouthing the company, etc?

You have two top stars in Del Rio and Lashley badmouthing the company or demanding their release.

All we need is for Darren Young to be a shocking surprise and we'll have TNA Bingo (although I guess Santino from the PPV might count?)

I totally brainfarted that Sami really is from Ohio.

God I hope they do more with Hakim Zane.  He and Ace Perry carried XICW in Detroit and an indie in Ohio on their backs for years.  Zane and Shane Strickland put on a clinic one time for the XICW title.

Great start to the Alberto/Johnny feud, that brawl was awesome. I enjoyed their feud back in Lucha Underground so I'm looking forward to this with the roles reversed. Sydal/Sonjay was good with a ton of time and Edwards/Fantasma good stuff as well. Really dug the Allie/Spinelli match from BCW, big fan of KC so it's great to see her get some more exposure here. Seemed like their match had a hot crowd with a nice finishing run. Glad Eli Drake's reign has lasted as long as it has, he rules as champ.

Super boring show. Its like they’re trying to be ROH lite.

I like the Jimmy Jocobs apperance and Sami Callihan being part of oVe. I actually like the move to Canada and think they'll do better as a Canadian indy that has TV. I thought the venue they were in looked better than the Impact Zone. I always hated how the Impact Zone looked.

Eh i thought i would like it at first but it was so quite at times. And those awful green ropes are such an eye sore.

i like the idea of Callihan with oVe but they haven’t developed it at all. No promo explaining who Callihan is, why they’re considered “family”, etc.

They have good concepts but not much creativity or character development.
