Corey_Lazarus Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Here we go. I'm predicting a shitload of interference tonight, and more slow-as-a-snail booking featuring short, bland matches.
tpww7 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 It's not really that complicated...let the workers work....
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 don't be to optimistic. I don't think the card looks bad at all. in fact i think it looks real good.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Are those two matches the only ones announced? Jesus..
Corey_Lazarus Posted December 3, 2003 Author Report Posted December 3, 2003 They also announced some X-Division Triple Threat, but I dunno the workers involved. And I think it's been proven that with Mantel at the helm, even matches that SHOULD be "HOLY FUCK~!" exciting (LowKi/Daniels from a few weeks ago) turn into a better-than-average SD/Raw bout.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Low Ki vs. Daniels vs. Kid Kash
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I don't get why mantell takes all the heat. JJ and his dad have the final say. And I loved Ki Daniels.
Guest BrokenWings Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Also... Shane Douglas & Michael Shane team up to face Chris Sabin & Sonjay Dutt. 3 Live Kru will be on hand to talk about their big win last week, but will AMW get their title shot...and what about Simon Diamond and Johnny Swinger? We'll also hear from Roddy Piper and we'll see how X matches up with someone bigger than him when he takes on Don Harris. -Backstage Notes
Michrome Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Ki-Daniels was a solid 9 minute start to a 20 minute match.
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 hopefully that's what they are building to, so they can't blow that with the first match.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I'm not going to hold my breath for the day an X division match gets 20 minutes again. Daniels/Ki could be booked as a feud of the year and the blowoff will still only get 12 mintues. I'm equally amazed that the first match ended clean.
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I honestly think that if the fans are into it enough The Management will listen.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 That's the other problem. The fans in the Asylum have been terrible for the last couple months. They hardly react to anything and it hurts the matches. For example...outside of a few Low Ki chants during the Daniels/Ki match...the crowd was DEAD.
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 you are right. How do you fix something like that?
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Move. That's about the only way. They need to go somewhere that they can draw a bigger portion of paid attendance, as the people who have paid to sit in the front are usually the only people that really are vocal.
bob_barron Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I thought that Jeremy Borash would constantly lead the crowd in chants by offering them stuff. Does he still do that? Is Raven still insanely over?
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I assume Borash still does it...but it isn't working. About the only things that still get consistent reactions are: Raven Styles Dusty Jarrett (because people chant for Hogan) 3 Live Krew
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 yea. but where would they go?
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I don't know. I read that the fairgrounds were in the "bad" part of town, and TNA was thinking about moving to a place where people would be happier to go every week. I read one thing credited to the observer that said they were considering building a new place.
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 that would cost a fair bit of cash, but they may have enough, but the problem would be the time it would take i think
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I think the theory is that they could rent it out to the other local indys that use the fairgrounds as well, and make the money back eventually. It's not the worst idea I've heard...but it really depends on how bad it is to go to the fairgrounds...which we'd have to ask someone from Nashville.
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 do many indies run around there?
tpww7 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Well me TRIED to order, but it wont let me...blessing in disguise?
Guest The Last Free Voice Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 I don't think so.... I have a good feeling....
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Ki/Daniels/Kash was pretty good, but a little short for a triple threat (a little over 10 minutes). I'd say around ***, but I'd rather watch it again before making a final rating. The damn 3LK/AMW/JArrett/whoever confrontation bored me too much, but it was fun hearind B.G. James doing the tag champ introduction bit again.
Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Time for Michael Shane Douglas vs. Sonjay Dutt & Chris Sabin.
Corey_Lazarus Posted December 4, 2003 Author Report Posted December 4, 2003 And Sabin's music still sucks. Ultimate X 2? Yeah, because the first one didn't suck enough, right?
tpww7 Posted December 4, 2003 Report Posted December 4, 2003 Ultimate X 2 with who? Originally it was going to have AJ in it.
Corey_Lazarus Posted December 4, 2003 Author Report Posted December 4, 2003 Decent so far, but it's ALL Sabin/Dutt.
