Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I'm glad to see Rich Swann get a shot in Impact. He fucked up, but we all do, and most of us deserve a second chance. If my wife had a gimmick like Su Yung, I'd be scared as fuck to piss her off. Life does imitate art sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Swann also made his MLW Fusion TV debut this week on TV as did Swagger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, I like the direction Impact has taken. I still feel like there's a good chance we could see PCO show up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Bringing in Gama as a heel manager is a genius move. I'm almost hoping that Impact's secret mission is to revive old Stampede gimmicks in Impact so that the power behind Su Yung will be revealed to be the ZODIAK~! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamBroken Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Pretty fun show here. Love the Madison/Tessa feud opening and closing the show, solid promo work from both too. Z & E make an amazing team so their matches are always a highlight. Desi Hit Squad should make for a good heel team. I've never liked Rich Swann and he's still pretty cringe. The random 4 way at Slammiversary should be good though. Enjoyed Sydal/Dezmond while it lasted, kinda wish that was the feud instead of Sydal/Cage. Katarina telling Grado about her past as Winter was amusing. Lots of good feud build throughout the show with Pentagon/Sami, Eddie/Tommy, and LAX heating up. Pentagon/Sami should be a hot match for Slammiversary, I'll be sad for Sami to lose his hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Sugar Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Too many matches on one show ending with a roll-up. But if that's the only criticism of an Impact show, at first glance...that's amazing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 This was a fun show. The two hours seem to fly by. I'm loving everything Impact is doing right now. Who thought I'd be able to say that in 2018? It's like I'm in the bizarro world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 What Mad Dog said. One too many schoolboys for my liking but Kongo Kong and Cage beating the shit out of each other like a pair of fucking kaiju is always fun. Tessa Blanchard remains a top ten candidate for a future ex wife. Watching her kill girls with the Devil Lock DDT never gets old. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I'm all aboard the Tessa Blanchard train. She's awesome playing the entitled bitch flaunting the family name, but can actually back it up in the ring. I like the Jimmy Jacobs/Matt Sydal alliance, and look forward to Kong and Cage beating the tar out of each other. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Madison's rollup at least was more of almost a crucifix bomb like Aries used to do and it ended up looking kinda killer like a proper finish. Good match, Tessa has come off very well like a star since debuting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Just watching this right now but -for the love of God! - please get Trevor Lee some new music! It's like four notes and it just repeats over...and over...and over. There's no into, no chorus, no breakdown. Just the same four chords over and over again. I hate it!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it!!! “He’s a contrarian, they told him to get good music and he said no thanks, give me 4 notes over and over”. - Don Callis Impact continues it’s decent run of form. Looking forward to most of the matches now. loved Jimmy Jacobs / Sydals ‘Namaste’ bow to each other, a really great pair of loathable smug pricks! I would kill for Neville to come in to work with most of the Impact guys at the moment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 The opening Mic exchange between Madison and Tessa was great to set up the night's Main event. Swann vs. Lee was MOTN but Swann's hair cut was one of those where you ask a Barber for it and he does it but asks that you don't tell people he did it. Mask vs. Hair should be great at Slammiversary as will that 4 way High Flyers match. Eddie making Tommy believe in the ECW arena was great and it will be interesting to see how Tommy responses next week. Konnan getting proof to show Kingston was behind the attack will be interesting as well. The main event was good with Madison using another move that she won with to set up several near falls for the PPV. SU and her brides attacking with Allie making her return was a great way to close the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodear Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Is... is Impact good? I follow it on Youtube and it seems kind of ... good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricR Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I'm behind on my Impact viewing, but Tessa Blanchard looked so killer in her match against Rayne. She's been my favorite thing on these shows, and Rayne was made into a super sympathetic babyface in this match just from that beating she took. Tessa carries herself really well and looks like she lays it in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
