Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 So far this #1 contender tournament is buckets of fun.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 I wonder if the match that ends up happening for the world title after this tournament will be built up as something special along with a card that is loaded compared to "just another week" of TNA? Kind of like their first supercard of sorts. Wouldnt mind seeing that, as well as an extra hour of action and a different arena for the card.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 I think it depends on whether or not JJ wins. He's the best heavyweight in the company, and by the time the tourney is over...they will have gone over 20 shows without him getting a title shot.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 At least they were smart enough to put Lynn/Siaki and Styles/Red on last. If these two matches can deliver, the rest of the show won't bother me anymore. Kind of like week 2, which had an hour and a half off the worst stuff ever...then a phenomenal last 30 minutes.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Styles and Red as the ME, I can't complain about that. Plus there's 45 minutes left of airtime. A major problem I've had with many weeks is they put the main event on like 5-10 minutes before the top of the hour. Nice to see them change up that here hopefully, unless they pull out an angle in between matches here that goes on forever.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Arg, that fat hyper bitch in the front row is on my TV too much right now
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Siaki's strategy is sound, since his finisher is a roll of the dice type move that focuses on the neck. But...no matter how strong they say Lynn's knee is...I still think it;s silly to not work it.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 That match didn't do much for me, had little flow or logic to it. Last week's was shorter but much better. Siaki advancing just flat out blows too.
Paul Stanley Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 How they tempt me after every segment with that blonde chick.. *plays Bay City Roller's "I Only Want To Be With You"*
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 I know what you mean, she is the hottest chick they've had on this show ever.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Dammit, they're doin what I was fearing, lets just get to the goddamn ME.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Damn it. Who cares about Lawler and April. They're wasting time.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Holy shit! He stiffened that guy big time
Paul Stanley Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Show the blonde chick again! YEAH!
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 The crowd bought that angle too, nobody was saying shit to him when he was leaving, I even saw a few guys in the front row back up lol
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 It was a good segment. They could have done it at a different point in the show though.
Paul Stanley Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Ah who cares about Lawler, it's all about that blonde chick!
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Nice opening sequence there
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Another nice sequence. They are so quick.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Red is going to break in half one of these days.
Guest Sandman9000 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 That's what you get for being 12 Red.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Cool series into the Code Red
Guest Sandman9000 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 For the love of God TNA: SIGN DEVINE STORM AND BRIAN XL! God, the six-man those two teams have had are insane, and throw Red/XL into a match and watch the insanity fly!
Paul Stanley Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 "For the love of God TNA: SIGN DEVINE STORM AND BRIAN XL! God, the six-man those two teams have had are insane, and throw Red/XL into a match and watch the insanity fly!" No, let's not... they work the same six-man match EVERY time.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Real good match. Not enough to save this show...but a good match nonetheless. They broke the streak of not having clean finishes in the main event too.
Guest Sandman9000 Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 It would be a whole new audience that hasn't seen them, however. Limit it to around 10 minutes, tell them to go balls out, and watch the spots fly. Storm Cradle Driver for President.
Guest RedJed Posted October 31, 2002 Report Posted October 31, 2002 Pretty good match, no MOTY contender though. Was that finish botched, seems like Styles was almost supposed to be somewhat standing and then maybe powerbomb Red somehow. Could be wrong, it just came off weird to me. Overall, not as strong as last week for sure. Highpoints: Red-Styles Angle w/ Lawler and fan Highspot from Slash Mitchell's promo Hennig booked properly given his state Tease of Wrestling 3 unmasked Lowpoints: Matches except the main event has little flow or intensity Mixed tag f'n blew big time Siaki-Lynn can't follow up last weeks match with a better one this week Harris brother BS Jarrett as Wrestling 3 storyline
