Thanks for posting these dude. really good stuff. im looking forward to reading the reviews of the 2 hour shows.

I was hoping for some kind of teams match for that but oh well. yeah id like to see one more elimination tag added but i really think the last match is going to be somthing with the women.

you know WWE wont have a show without the women being involved somwhere so it depends if they will go for a womens title match or a survivor series match. maybe mickie and Lita as team captains. Im sold on this show for the elimination matches. I really hope the Taker and Kennedy match is a 5 on 5 deal and not singles. They should keep the singles matches to a minimum.

lol at the massive HHH and Michaels with the mini pics of the Hardys and Punk at the back.

the classic quote along the lines of "x pac 1998 called, it wants its gimmick back"

Dudleys win by pinning one of the naturals

marvelous

who's in the match so far?

How does the arena look? Cool set? Is the place busy or are there gaps?

They HAVE to sort things out before they go live at the top of the hour. This really isnt the night for mess ups in production.

Would anyone be able to get screencaps of the arena when this comes on so we can see what it looks like?

A few pre show notes from wrestlingobserver.com --Zach Gowen while working an indie show earlier this week told people that he would be wrestling on Sunday's PPV in the Kevin Nash Battle Royal. --There were still some floor seats available for today's TNA show in Plymouth, MI. The World Series will kill walk-up but the truth is, it's telling that in a small sized building, they couldn't sellout well in advance for the biggest show in company history and coming off the Angle publicity. (thanks to Jake Koch) --Kurt Angle was not at the TNA fan fest yesterday because his wife went into labor, but it was announced that all fans who paid for the fan fest were able to personally meet with Angle this afternoon before the PPV show. And some more from pwinsider: - Bound for Glory tonight in Plymouth, MI is not sold out yet, but TNA is expecting over 3000 fans. - Impact will be taped on Tuesday this week so talent will have a day off tomorrow to rest. - Gail Kim has announced on her MySpace page that she was injured by LAX on Impact and will miss the PPV tonight. - Mike Tenay was at game 1 of the World Series last night. - Word is that the set up for the PPV tonight looks good. There is apparently one big ramp and three video screens.

On last weeks Impact BG basically called Kip an ass for insulting Jarrett. Meltzer seems to think Jarrett is going to be turning face and aligning with BG. If the mentioned story of Jarrett turning face over his wifes cancer story is true this may have been the first seed planted. As in BG knows about Jeffs offscreen problems and was defending him to Kip.

Predictions for the show: NWA World Heavyweight Title, "Title .VS. Career" Match - Special Ringside Enforcer: Kurt Angle "The King of the Mountain" Jeff Jarrett .VS. Sting. Winner: Sting wins and has a transitional run until januarys ppv maybe. Jarrett goes through with the face turn. NWA World Tag Team Titles, Six Sides Of Steel Match "The Phenomenal One" AJ Styles & "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels .VS. The LAX (Homicide & Hernandez, with Konnan). Winners: I want to go with LAX here as they need the belts while they are hot. TNA have a habit of putting AJ and Daniels over on the big shows however. Il go with LAX. Monster's Ball III Match - Special Ringside Guide: Jake "The Snake" Roberts "The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe .VS. Raven .VS. "The Monster" Abyss (with James Mitchell) .VS. Brother Runt. Winner: Samoa Joe. Has to be the case really. He needs to go over strong as well, Runt will probably be the victim at the end. Detroit 8 Mile Street Fight Match Rhino .VS. Christian Cage. Winner: Rhino to go over in his hometown. Christian won last month and it wouldnt make sense for Rhino to loose all the matches in the feud. TNA X-Division Title Match Senshi .VS. Chris Sabin. Winner: Senshi. Sabin might have more heat in his hometown than usual but Senshi has to go over. I picked title changes in the other 2 matches and i doubt they will change all 3 champions. Four-Corners Tag Match Team 3D .VS. The Naturals (with "The Franchise" Shane Douglas) .VS. America's Most Wanted (with Gail Kim) .VS. The James Gang. Winners: Team 3D to win here, probably the James Gang to take the pin as they apear to be breaking up soon. Kevin Nash Open Invitational X-Division Gauntlet Battle Royal 12 X-Division wrestlers. Winner: Austin Starr on his debut. This could be really good or turn into a complete joke and a mess depending on how its booked and what Nash's involvment is. "Loser Gets Fired" Match Eric Young .VS. Larry Zbyszko. Winner: Eric Young has to win. Only logical ending. Preshow: Singles Match Bobby Roode .VS. Lance Hoyt. Winner: Bobby Roode wins easy after unveling Traci as his manager.

I wonder if thats the case and Punk is one of the choices, would he win based on the net crowd seeming to be where the bulk of his following is?

I live in the UK so cant see the show live but it airs on the Wrestling Channel the following sunday so me and a couple of mates are getting some beers in for the show. Im actually really looking forward to seing the show mainly for the cage match, Angle and seing TNA in a real arena with a new crowd. Do you think they will go all out with the set, presentation,etc?

I think the best thing to do with ICP would be to have them perform a song or somthing at the show rather than stink the show up in ring. Their music may not be great but they sell tickets in the area and if you can get more buyers just because a band are on the bill its good money made for TNA.

if they did get the Rock i think that would be the one and only name people would care to see. Think about it he was massive during the attitude era which is the only time casuals really remember plus theres the film connection. Problem is we all know its not going to be him. TNA always come up with these announcments every now and again. If it was Jericho marks might watch by all means but do you really think casuals would give a damn enough to drag the rating up to anything other than 0.9 or 1.0 at a push. same goes for Lesnar, big name at the time but time in the shadows and lack of motivation together just wont cut it. Angle would be massive with the net community but do you guys REALLY honestly believe that he can up ratings that much? good matches? by all means, but we know it takes more than that to draw people in for more than a week or two. I mean people watched Impact for a while for the action but it takes compelling viewing to keep them not WWE style angles. people will just watch RAW instead. Bret wont come and if he did you know TNA would only stick him with Roode or against Jarrett in an angle anyway. KENTA and Mistico are awesome workers, some of the best to be true but they wont up things either. And after all that theres the Jarrett factor. If this is a big name do you really think JJ will let them go up against anyone bar him? Look at the names so far and what do they have in common? shamrock, sting, luger, nash, hall, waltman, hogan, steiner, james gang, hardy, dudleys, rhyno, christian, ddp, raven, savage, piper, cornette, rhodes, sabu, d lo brown, russo, etc, etc. that is a roster full of names and what do they all have in common? over 4 years they have all been with or against Jarrett. Do you really think anyone else will be different? He wont let anyone out heel him and always gets the better of the face in the end. So that leaves Goldberg who judging from recent happenings will probably end up in TNA. but his attitude is too much. will Goldberg really job to joe? Do you actually believe that he will fall to a guy who in his big shot mind doesnt have "the look" and star power. We know how the company works, look at how nash treated sabin. Jarrett would want him anyway. we know he always does the whole TNA is my world, your not coming in thing. you know he'd do it here. TNA wont die as people say but it wont flurish either at least not without a complete overhall. 2 hours wont help neither will the names if used wrong. Sorry for writing an essay on the matter, i just wanted to give my thoughts on the situation.

jarrett resigned!! (i wish!)

match was ok, no insane bump but that may be for the best i guess. That REALLY needs to be the end of the feud now. The sledgehammer shot sounded and looked really good.

that could make for one sick bump if someone is willing to take it. I guess it would have to be shane unless theres a sabu or van dam run in somwhere?

did JR just say the cell is 20 feet higher than normal?

well 2 championships retained. is it a near lock that cena is winning now then?

thought Kane would job there, dont see why they protected him. Guess Umaga will have to wait til survivor series for his first big ppv win. And here comes my cigarette break.

I think she was talking about when Edge beat Matt on Raw and he got sent to smackdown. not sure though, might have misheard it.
