The problem with this turn is that was so rushed, I think Karen Angle was on TV twice before the PPV and they immediately had her 'turn' on Angle in her first appearance, that was no time to either care about Karen or want her to leave Kurt enough to where her turning on Joe meant anything. It's an angle that should work, and can, but it didn't work here because it was so rushed and contrived that people didn't have time to get into the angle to want to see it play out, and because it was so obvious it seemed more lame that it probably is. Yes, angles like this are tried and true methods of drawing money, and yes, they often work, but this one didn't because it's execution was so rushed and convoluted that none of that mattered. Instead of being another part in an interesting and compelling storyline, it came off like a hackneyed plot device that nobody wanted to see because they were never given the time to get into the angle enough to where they would want to see it. I actually do agree with you that the whole storyline was rushed and I also think thats what hurt it the most and thank you for giving a better reason then "oh Joe looked like a idiot for having Karen in his corner" or "oh it sucked because Joe didn't win.".

Let me guys ask you a serious question, how many times have you been able to predict some kind of angle or gimmick ending in a certain way? How many times do you see a swerve or turn happening weeks before it actually happens? It's nothing new in wrestling, espically when a angle/gimmick that fans are used to is being used and just because certain fans think thats how the angle/gimmick is going to end, doesn't mean bookers should go ahead and run with it. So people saw the turn happening, so what? Does it still not generate heat? Does it not still continue a feud? Yes the Karen Angle swerve on Joe was a old and tired formula that people saw coming a mile away, so what? So it supposely makes Joe look like an idiot (i'm saying supposely because I didn't watch the ppv match) but the only people who think Joe is an idiot for having Karen Angle in his corner are the ones who just wanted Joe to win the titles and think it's going to hurt his creditablity, but it won't. I understand that TNA used a tired and old formula for the end of Kurt Angle vs Samoa Joe, but it's professional wrestling, the same old and tired formulas are used all the time and you want to know why, becuase the tired and old formulas still work.

Are you high? They made Samoa Joe look like a complete moron and did a "swerve" that everyone could see coming a mile away. People aren't pissed off just b/c Joe lost, it's because he looked awful in losing and it was the latest screwjob in a series of them. it's the typical serve finish. It's the heel outsmarting the babyface, all this does is pretty much build up their feud more and more until Joe actually wins the title, unless TNA does what they did to Raven to Joe, then I don't see a problem with the finish of the match other than it being a typical Heel outsmarting the Babyface to gain the upper hand angle.

Great fucking video, thank you for posting it Mecca.

I love reading the reactions to the Joe/Kurt feud. I can't tell if you guys are over-reacting to it or just really upset that Joe lost. The way it sounds how things went, the way the match ended was just an excuse to continue the Kurt vs Joe feud. It's a typical swerve finish but at least it continues the feud. Actually, re-reading the reactions to some of you guys again. TNA did a great job booking the end of the Joe vs Kurt match, it ended up pissing you all off, TNA didn't book anything bad juding by your reactions to Kurt winning the match. Espically JHawk and Cabbageboy's "Joe is getting buried" reaction.

Card subject to change. I'm sure TNA thought they had everything taken care of, then the Titans put the restraining order out there, but to assume that TNA already knew nothing was going to happen but just decided to promote him anyways isn't a LONG SHOT.

The title of the show sounds like a porno.

Who?

360

The song normally plays after the opening promo, when they go to the live crowd.

wait i thought it was a title shot?

So if Punk looses, whose the next in line? I'm pulling for Stevie!

So whose the Baby Momma? Trish or Torrie?

Rated 2G made their debut with Devil Mountain at the July 21st show and impressed the crowd with their in-ring tag team skills and came very close to elimating the tag team champs from the three way tag team dance at the show!

Remind of that episode please. Is that the one where Homer changes his name to Max Power?

"I don't care how many stewardesses you've banged, you're still a lousy pilot!" "Quack, quack, quack"

and you are correct sir.

I'm thinking that video for the Dragonforce song is got to be a fake. There is no fucking way there would be a song with notes like that, that would be that impossible to hit. I'm going with fake, that was just to insane.

I hate it when Raw gets a lower than normal rating. Vince seems to go in panic mode everytime Raw and only Raw gets that low rating. If it was Smackdown or ECW he'd just shrug it off and act like it's a normal day at the office but if it's Raw...OH NO! PANIC BUTTON!

Penguins can't fly.....PENGUINS CAN'T FLY!

I bought mine in late Nov or early Dec. of 05 and it crapped out in June of 07. So it had a pretty nice run before dying out.

...........MaMahon is already coming back to tv? Great, just when I was getting used to it without him. Maybe he'll just make an annoucment and go away again.

The ME scene is fine... for now. Once Punk gets the title, get ready for the ECW (and not in the "extreme" meaning) variant of Cena. These "out of nowhere GTS"-es really remind too much of "out of nowhere FU"-s. I hate the way they're booking Punk, even if we set aside the fact Punk is a face. Could you kinda explain why you hate the way their booking Punk? How would you book him?

I want to, but I don't want to pay for anything that I'm not sure what it is It's free When did it become free? I thought it was a monthly fee? Are you not thinking of xboxlive itself? I haven't been asked for any details that would suggest a charge for XNA - not even what my msn/xboxlive tag is. I went to check the XNA thing but I can't find it at all on the Marketplace. Where is it? Oh and there's a Blue Dragon demo, along with a Fable 2 diary. It's the 2nd video diary.

I have to seriously ask... why do you think so? He might as well be holding a Cher cd. I still don't like the fact they gave Yoshi arms. That's what his tounge was for!
