The Nature Boy Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Never, ever cut out The Beautiful People's entrance. Anything but that. If TNA goes out of business, that needs to be imported to WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 The opening bit to set up the 4 way went on a bit too long in theory, but only took seven minutes and teased Lashley-Angle and had some amusing quips from Taz. Team 3D HOF recap killed time and furthered their bargaining power since they're still actively on TNA TV despite no longer being under contract. Havok-Rayne wasn't very good, but told a fine story. Madison's new booty shorts were a nice attire change. Havok's chokeslam being given a wacky name is needless. EY's promo was stupid and confusing. Matt Hardy-Magnus was set up with a funny backstage bit and turned out to be a very good little match. Magnus-Matt was worth going out of your way to see since it's short, but highlight-filled. Matt took a powerbomb on the post, the apron, and won with a mid-air Twist in his best TV singles match in ages. Wish he hadn't done stupid shit though given his drug problems. Menagerie-BroMans/Love was a fun comedy match. Loved loved loved the EC3/Tyrus promo. These two have fantastic chemistry together, and that's a very pleasant surprise. Brodus as a serious act works better for this setting to help make this seem more like just another WWE castoff doing his greatest hits since he really didn't have that gimmick in WWE. He can make more money on the indies, and save his body from some damage, doing that act on the indies, and then do the serious stuff on a national stage for a change. Tyrus-Shark Boy was bad, but I kind of like Shark Boy's old, fat guy gimmick. Tag title series recap was great, but the cyber Wolves video sucked. They announced an 8-team tourney and that's it. Main event was a fine spotfest when everyone was in, but became a damn good wrestling match when it was just Roode and Aries - despite them having very little time to really work. They had maybe five minutes and used that time to have a great closing sequence - like a Japanese main event where everything else was good-to-great, but built to some amazing stuff that was just better in every way. Everything but the finish was crisp, and even that being a bit wonky worked since it sold how important the match and the title shot was. I loved the scene at the end with all the faces holding their arms high and celebrating the match itself - it would've made for a fine final impact moment. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/10/tna-impact-10-15-14-post-bfg.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/1467a9mwgof0k0n5q76ifvqqrqhn1wn2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 That thing Havok has with her eyes ... it's just ... I don't know ... kinda sexy. That may make me weird. But I dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Ray Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 The Hall of Fame segment looked like it was done at an airport Sheraton. I will let them off the hook because it looks like it was being hosted out of the country, but man it looked bush league. I mean, the ECW Conventions might have been in ritzier rooms. Plus it would have had some lady ask Bubba Ray who trained him and when did he start wrestling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mco543 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Bubba and Dvon dressed in attire that at any other ceremony would've been ridiculous yet for TNA it seemed appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I liked Shark Boy getting winded after throwing a couple of punches. Has he actually gotten that fat or is that padding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 Good to see Matt look good in singles, fun match with Magnus and a nice finish. Continuing to enjoy Havok's TNA run so far. Main event was good stuff and always great to see Roode vs Aries, one of my favorite pairings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGFanJay Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 TNA redefined running in place with a turtle-esque trot tonight. They had a tag tourney that furthered very little and had EY teaming with Spud, who alternated between being on the roster when EC3 talked about him, to off the roster when Spud talked about himself, then on the roster when EY talked about him before the match, then off of it when Tenay was confused, then back on the roster when he came out. EY and Spud against EC3 and Tyrus MAIN EVENTED the show - luckily, it was sponsored by Five Hour Energy and not a site shilling porno or sex toys at a slight discount when you enter a promo code. They started trying to get EY over off of Bryan, and are now talking about the I'M WITH SPUD movement. I'm part of it because A - he's awesome and B - I have a cat named Spud. The Roode-Lashley contract signing over-delivered thanks to Roode and MVP delivering excellent promos - I'm looking forward to the show just for the main event. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/10/tna-impact-10-22-14.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/wr7lt68pkly72vn4ca38p6v0cpkumfhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 It takes a lot of dedication to get tattoos that look as bad as the ones that Samuel Shaw has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Not to pile on the list of things wrong with TNA. But if you're gonna have Brittany be AJ-lite and want Samuel, make sure she takes her engagement ring first. It's a minor thing, but c'mon man.
