  1. First time I’ve watched Impact night of instead of letting them pile up on the DVR in a long time. Long live the re-brand! Long live TNA!

     

    Great showcase of all flavors of what this brand has been. A multi-man X scramble, a women’s showcase, a warm-up for the future tag champs, a PCO squash, and an inspirational main event with the face of the franchise and someone who was inspired by the franchise. Punctuated by a very effective motivational speech from someone I don’t tend to consider a great motivational speaker. This was great wrestling TV.

     

    Dolph should have done this a decade ago. Maybe he’d be headlining Mania this year. Excited to see what identity he finds and where.

    This has been the first time I truly enjoyed The Bucks. Nicholas and Matthew leaning into the aloof EVP shtick rules. I especially loved the HR violation of calling Renee sweetheart. I know they won’t do it, but heel Bucks can just explain that they have a personal referee who understands his place that justifies the inconsistent reffing in their matches. 

    Surprised you enjoyed something so worked-shooty. Not trying to score points or anything, just happy to see you got something out of it. Not what I normally associate with your taste.

    Wait, is there anyone at all that believes that had the Punk/Perry shit not happened that thin-skinned Phil would still be happily working for AEW and having no problems to this day? 

    Considering the state of the place and the unresolved issues? Not really. But that’s not what I said. 
     

    And I hate to break kayfabe, but Octopus is clearly doing a bit.

    Also, RuPaul won for best reality show host for the 8th consecutive time.  Drag Race won for the 5th time. 

    Ru also has the most Emmy wins for a person of color. 

    🏳️‍🌈

    Drag Race has fully taken the “this always wins in the middle of the Emmys” crown that once belonged to The Amazing Race.

  5. “Scapegoat” for what? How honest can we get or is he under an NDA too? Does the midcard shit-disturber need to be reminding everyone he’s part of the reason Punk is doing big business and main eventing big shows elsewhere this year?

    Nail the Forbidden Door shut and pray his excursion is indefinite. They already ran him off, don’t care about any shooty insider nonsense they’re planning to cook up now that the bad man’s gone and they can’t deliver those matches.

    Triple post, but it does suck that Revolution should basically be the ultimate tribute show for Sting and WWE owns the bulk of classic Sting footage that could be used in video packages. There’s the TNA footage, but I want clips of Sting vs Flair, or Vader, or Sid, or Hogan, or Bret, or his entrance from WM, or the War Games matches, and so on.

    TNA can give you Sting vs Flair footage of you really need it.

    Really hoping the Bucks thing is a misdirection. That's a fine Dynamite tag in a few weeks, but Darby being the only guy to pin Sting in AEW is the only way to go here. Sting never actually gave an answer, so I'm hopeful.

    Who’s gonna be Sting’s partner? Because they’ve made it fairly clear Sting isn’t interested in working a singles match. 
     

    Honestly, Matt Koon (podcast co-host for Dax and Regal) has been calling the Bucks for the Sting finale, so I was kinda excited when they showed up.
