Styles 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2003 Greetings again from Nashville! Lots to get to this week, so let’s get to it. TNA has had some great main events over the past year and a half, and I would have to rank this past Wednesday’s as one of my favorites. AJ Styles and Abyss are two of TNA’s “Homegrown” talent, and showed why they are main eventers Wednesday night with a matchup as good as anything I’ve seen this year. Abyss has been main eventing the IWA in Puerto Rico for the last year on a nightly basis, and has quickly earned that spot in TNA with a solid performance. The monster is a former Oakland Raider and has a master’s degree in marketing. AJ Styles? Once again, outstanding. There isn’t a more exciting performer in the wrestling business today. Hands down. Bar none. Case closed. The David Young / Glenn Gilberti / Simon & Swinger backstage action seems to be catching on with the fans. This weekend’s Xplosion features a backstage segment between the four of them that is absolutely hysterical. The foursome has a great dynamic. Jeff Jarrett vs. AJ Styles for the NWA World Title has been announced for December 3rd. Teddy Hart is auctioning off his trunks from his TNA appearance on Ebay. He set his starting bid at one thousand dollars. Let's hope that is one thousand dollars Canadian. I was in Emporia, Virginia for Hermie Sadler’s Celebrity Race for Autism on Saturday. Hermie’s daughter has autism, and TNA is proud to support him in his efforts. NWA World Champion Jeff Jarrett is in town for the event as well. Let’s hope none of the celebrities ask him “Why” or they could end up like Jeff Pillars from the John Boy and Billy radio show. If you haven’t listened to John Boy and Billy, give them a try. They are the most listened to morning show in North America, even blowing away Howard Stern’s massive audience. To see if they are in your market, go to www.thebigshow.com. You can hear TNA’s very own Don West on “Wrestling Wednesday’s” every week giving an update on what you will see on that evenings PPV event. Want to know how to contact your favorite TNA superstar for a live appearance? Check out the brand new www.tnabookings.com! TNA expects most of the cable systems will be on board for our new monthly price plan that will launch in January. You will see advertising for this new option starting in mid-December. The price plan will be 34.95 for an entire month’s worth of TNA PPV. Chris Sabin has really caught fire over the past month with the TNA Audience. Look for new music to debut for the X-Division star this week. Jeff Jarrett and I were guests of Toby Keith this past Saturday night in Richmond at his concert. His live show needs to be seen to be believed. Toby kicks off all of his concerts the with a video of his many accomplishments, and hends it with highlights of Jeff Jarrett getting suplexed from TNA’s very first show. Toby in the TNA ring easily gets the biggest pop of the video. Look for an announcement this week on how you can view TNA PPVs online. I’ve seen the video feed on my DSL, and video quality is incredible. Look for a formal announcement this week. This will be especially big for the international audience who do not get the chance to order TNA PPVs on their systems. Announced for this Wednesday night already will be the TNA Fan’s Revenge match featuring Dusty Rhodes vs. Jeff Jarrett, Raven vs. The Redshirts, Sonjay Dutt vs. Michael Shane for the X-Division, and the Three Live Kru challenge Simon & Swinger for the NWA World Tag Team Titles. Also, TNA is expected to hear from Roddy Piper this week. That is all for this week - we will see you back on PPV this Wednesday night! Jeremy Borash TNA Wrestling OMG, damn that Jeff Jarrett for showing up at a charity event for autism! What an egomaniac! Who the hell has ever even heard of Hermie Sadler? He probably made Borash mention it, since Jarrett is such a mark for himself. FUCK JARRETT! The webcasts are coming so there should be no excuses for anybody who complains about the show without watching it because they can't get the show. Can't wait for the new discount price to start in January! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slimm44 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2003 Interesting and late column this week. No worries. I wonder if this means Piper will be there LIVE at the Asylum or it will be a pre taped segment. Looks to be an alright show this week nothing special though. 'Fans Revenge' will probably be a bust Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Styles 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2003 Why do I fear for Jarrett's life thinking one of the fans will be one of the haters on the board who legite try to hurt Jarrett? Anyone hear how they're gonna do the match, anyway? They've got to have some control over it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure that the fans in question will in no way whatsoever be plants of any kind. ...and enough with the "Why?" shit, Bryan had it right - center the feud on the title belt, muppets.

SamoaRowe 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2003 Haha, wouldn't it be great if Dave O'Neil was one of those fans with a strap? I could picture him flying over to Nashville just to get his hands on Jarrett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2003 The "Fan's revenge match" will be just like Ultimate X, nice concept, horrible output. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2003 I think all of TNA's own specialty matches have had excellent concepts, but poor results. Okay, your schtick where you parody the board members that have gripes with Jarrett is now old and annoying, especially since those who have gripes with Jarrett do it based off of LEGITIMATE REASONS.
