Well it looks a lot better than some of the previous shows.
-
Tonights show was 100 times better than last weeks show. I only feel that HHH is going to win at Unforgiven after the past two weeks between him and Orton. DIva segment finally gave us something to care about.
-
Well seeing that the voting is fixed, Carmella will not be voted out, unless they do a screwjob at the end. But tonights segment was really entertaining
-
Well too bad for Edge. I heard the original storyline was supposed to progress until Christian returned and Edge and Jericho would put aside their differences and re-form their tag team to take on Tomko and Christian. Wonder what will happen now.
Time to petition they give Batista the belt!

Tonight's show was pretty well. The card wasn't great but the matches were pretty good, except for the 4 way X match becuause no one cared. I don't know when the show cut off but after the match Dallas and Styles went into the crowd and brawled. Kid Kash and The Truth went at it too. In the ring, Brown,Hardy and Jarrett were fighting then the faces, Triple X, Sabin, Dutt, D-ray and Watts came to clear Brown and Jarrett out of the ring. Pretty cool brawling.

What's going to slap WWE in the face is if Carmella wins, and if she really is only in it for the money, then they are going to have a problem and she'll probably be fired before the end of the year.

Just found this out. Vaughn vs. Vito is not going to take place.
UPDATE: FOUR WAY X MATCH ADDED!
TNA officials learned on Tuesday afternoon that due to a family emergency, Big Vito will be unable to compete on Wednesday’s Pay-Per-View against Chris Vaughn. As a result, TNA officials have scheduled a four way match to determine the new #1 Contender to the X Championship. The winner will face X Champ “The Canadian Destroyer” Petey Williams on the September 1 broadcast!
Wednesday’s added bout will be:
TO DETERMINE THE NEW #1 CONTENDER TO THE X CHAMPIONSHIP
CHRIS SABIN vs. JASON CROSS vs. SONJAY DUTT v. JOEY MATTHEWS
It sucks that Vaughn isn't even in a match now. Oh well, show doesn't look that great anyways.

Those ads were just commercials for summertime. This sounds interesting. Plus to add to the list of other channels to watch, there is also Nicktoon TV. But I have a feeling that all the Nick channels will air the Go Out and Play screen. Nick 2 is just a 3 hour delay of Nickelodeon.
-
I agree this was one of the worst RAW's. Two matches, two awful segments and hardly any interaction between Orton and HHH. The wedding was alright. I enjoyed the midgets. Had to be the worst RAW since the one before Wrestlemania 19.
-
The fans know they are leaving Nashville. People talk about it before and after the show.

Ines Montes called in the following spoilers from NWA:TNA's Impact taping at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida:
Dark Segments:
*Jimmy Hart came to the ring and welcomed everyone to the show, running down a list of names in attendance for the taping. He also plugged a survey they were handing out to fans as they entered the taping, noting they would be pulling them and giving away prizes to those they picked.
*Chris Sabin & Sonny Siaki defeated Team Canada's Bobby Rude & Lex Lovett
Xplosion!
*Christopher Daniels & Primetime defeated NWA Tag Team champions The Naturals in a non-title bout.
Impact!
They played a video package promoting Jeff Hardy vs. Jeff Jarrett on 9/8.
*NWA champion Jeff Jarrett pinned Pat Kenney with the stroke in about a minute. He started to cut a promo on Hardy but was attacked by Kenney from behind. They brawled, leading to Jarrett laying him out with the guitar.
*Kid Kash & Dallas beat Jerelle Clark & Mikey Batts.
*Petey Williams defeated a local wrestler who wasn't identified well due to a poor house mic. Williams, Scott D'Amore, and Bobby Rude beat him down until Konnan, Dusty Rhodes, and BG Jammes made the save.
*Shane Douglas interviewed Vince Russo backstage. Russo said that he was going to make a decision about Dusty Rhodes on the PPV this Wednesday. Scott D'Amore ranted at Russo that he wants it taken care of right now, but Russo said he would make a decision on Wednesday.
*America's Most Wanted defeated Abyss & Alex Shelley. Abyss accidentally hit Shelley when Chris Harris moved out of the way. Harris speared Shelley for the pin. Abyss started choking Shelley while Goldilocks tried to pull him off.
They aired a video package on Monty Brown.
*Monty Brown defeated Dimitris with the Pounce.
*Mike Tenay and Don West did the hard sell, running down the lineup for the PPV this Wednesday. Matches announced were: -Michael Shane & Kazarian vs. Psicosis & L.A. Park
-Triple X vs. America's Most Wanted to determine the top contenders for the NWA Tag Team championship
-Dusty Rhodes & Konnan & BG Jammes vs. Team Canada
-Jeff Hardy & AJ Styles & Ron Killings vs. Monty Brown & Kid Kash & Dallas
As Tenay and West announced the six man tag, Scott D'Amore and Team Canada came out with D'Amore complaining about Dusty. Vince Russo came out. It ended up with Dusty, Konnan, and Jammes coming to the ring. Dusty attacked D'Amore.
*AJ Styles & Ron Killings & Jeff Hardy defeated Kazarian & Shane & Jason Cross when Hardy pinned Cross with a Swanton.
After the taping went off the air, the babyfaces laid out Kazarian and Shane with their finishers. Tracy Brooks helped up Kazarian and Shane, who began mocking the crowd.
Jeremy Borash announced the winners of the raffle for those who turned in the survey. The ring girls tossed out signed T-shirts to the crowd. They invited the fans to attend an afterparty event with the wrestlers as well.

I found this this morning from tnawrestling.com
TNA WRESTLING TO OFFER MONTHLY THREE HOUR PAY- PER-VIEW EVENTS
TNA WRESTLING “VICTORY ROAD” DEBUTS NOVEMBER 7TH
Nashville, TN (August 19, 2004) – TNA Entertainment, LLC announced today that Total Nonstop Action Wrestling will move to a monthly pay-per-view format beginning in November. The first three hour pay-per-view event will air live on November 7th at 8pm ET/5pm PT and be called TNA Wrestling “Victory Road.”
TNA Wrestling broke ground in June 2002 launching the first ever weekly pay-per-view event series in professional wrestling history. “Victory Road” will be the beginning of a new era for TNA Wrestling.
“In two short years, TNA has leveraged its successful Wednesday night weekly pay-per-view to take the company from a virtually unknown entity to the most recognized ‘New Wrestling Alternative’ for fans around the world,” said Dixie Carter, President of TNA Entertainment. “As we continue to grow the company across all platforms and take advantage and respond to the ever changing cable and satellite marketplace, we strongly believe the move to a monthly pay-per-view event format will be another positive step in establishing ourselves as the serious contender in our industry.”
Carter added, “This change in business strategy has also been very well received by our pay-per-view partners.”
At this time, TNA Wrestling has already secured distribution for its monthly pay-per-view events on
iN Demand, DISH Network, TVN, Viewers Choice Canada, Bell ExpressVu and Shaw Communications.
In addition to the monthly pay-per-view events, TNA Wrestling has two other television properties. “iMPACT!” on Fox Sports Net clears over 83 million homes weekly, and TNA “Xplosion”, a weekly syndicated program, is in more than 40 million homes with plans to expand the distribution by the end of the year.
The last live weekly pay-per-view will be held in Nashville at the TNA Asylum on September 8. The following three Wednesdays will feature a collection of the greatest moments from the most exciting year in TNA history from the Tag Team, X Division and Heavyweight Division.
The alternative for the true wrestling fan, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling prides itself on delivering quality, family programming that is clean, innovative, cutting edge and with the high-risk, high-flying athleticism that TNA Wrestling is known for. Total Nonstop Action Wrestling features wrestling superstars such as Jeff Jarrett, AJ Styles, Jeff Hardy, Raven, Monty Brown and America’s Most Wanted among others.

The EC should not be used as a upper midcarder match. I can't see them using it for other than a title match or Smackdown vs. RAW
-
Put him back with Christian, but since he is aligned with Trish and Tomko, I don't see it happening. I don't see him being Cocky Heel as a singles competitor. Just take him off TV...Please!
-
Yeah I noticed that too. But AJ gets a huge pop everytime he comes out, and Kash picks fights with the fans and can get carried away, as we saw tonight.
-
I just saw him on Jimmy Kimmel and started watching the show. It is really funny.
-
The show was pretty slow tonight live. The best part was when the fan tried to fight Kash and Kash stole the Chicken Hat from the other guy. Both guys were really worked up, it was not part of the show. The main event was great, the tag matches were pretty slow, but overall better than it looked. After the show went off the air, AJ,Truth and Hardy fought Kash,Dallas and Monty Brown out of the ring but everyone kept taunting so they tried to keep brawling. Brown got on the mike and made the main event a six man tag between them. AJ, Hardy and Truth thanked the fans and went around shaking hands.
-
Tonight had to be the best episode. Probably because the whole Colin/Mirna team jealousy. I couldn't stop laughing when Charla told the travel agent to not help the other teams because they were violent. Too funny. Then the whole drama thing on the bus with Nicole and Brandon trying to fight the bus people. Really good episode with a happy ending of the Mirna/Charla team eliminated.
-
Raw was great tonight, from beginning to end. The only thing that got on my nerves was how much Lawler was hyping the wedding next week and you could see JR was getting mad he was talking over him. I started thinking the diva wannabe's were scripted to say they wanted Carmilla out, and what's with them voting off the blondes? Oh well
-
The fans got bored 45 minutes into the show. I thought the crowd actually made the show enjoyable. They may have been distracting but the Wave was the funniest moment of the night.
-
I can't believe people are upset about the crowd reactions, it is what made the show. Now the 'Bizarro World' was overdoing it. I was also upset with the HHH/Eugene match because he said he was going to end his career, but not even a sledgehammer was brought out. And then after beating down Regal for two weeks, Triple H runs right out of the ring, like he was afraid of him. The only explanation I have is, Teddy Long threatened Bischoff with signing Eugene to Smackdown.
-
It was better than the Heavyweight title gauntlet a few weeks ago.
-
So this week's show was better than a few of the past ones. The one match hardly anyone was into was the Gilberti/Young match. No one was into it until the finish.
I know the show ended with Russo looking on as Dusty tried to enter the ring. But after the show ended Dusty and D'Amore began to argue. D'Amore got on the mike and challenged Dusty to take off his hat and glasses and then they would go at it. Dusty took them off as security ran down and tried to break them up. Scott took off is belt and wanted to use it but Dusty took his belt off which was a lot bigger and ran after D'Amore, he got in a couple shots before D'Amore ran out and regrouped with Team Canada. The crowd chanted for Dusty and then everyone left.
-
Ever since Backlash, there has not been as much focus on Benoit other than being in main event matches on RAW. I mean there have hardly been any promos from him. He just comes out for his match and that's it. While they have been building Randy up, which is shades of Benoit from the Rumble to WM XX.
As for RAW, it was better than last week. And you knew they were going to do something to promote the diva search during the PPV.
