TNA's next PPV: Turning Point

[Astro101 0]

At least it's a better name than Victory Road. Anyway, they have an early graphic and video for it. Video is pretty slick and Jeff Hardy actually says two words!!!

According to Mike Johnson at pwinsider the planned main event is:

Jarrett, Nash and Hall vs. Savage, Styles and Monty Brown.

[Open the Muggy Gate 0]

It better be Jarrett vs. Brown.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

If that does turn out to be the main event, then it's going to be really bad. Nash, Hall and Savage can't do a thing in the ring, Brown is still green, which leaves Styles and Jarrett to carry things, and they're not good enough to carry the rest of the participants to anything good.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

That main event would be horrible. Well it could be good if you wanna see AJ bumping around for has beens............

I wonder what the hell they're gonna do with Monty then, because I assumed he'd be challenging Jarrett here.

As much as I don't like Monte..........he looked like a star last night. They SHOULD let him get a title shot, but all the idiots getting a paycheck for nothing must be squeezed in.

 

Hall/Nash/Savage = Leeches of the business.

I really think they should strike with Monty will the iron is hot. Since they're giving him the Superman push, they might as well pull the trigger and put the belt on him.

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

The best way to do this would be to have Brown pin Jarrett at the end of the match and then have him totally destroy Nash and Hall on the way to the next PPV.

 

Hopefully they'll do Chris Daniels vs. Petey Williams since Skipper's going to be out.

That is probably the only thing that would allow me to like Monte Brown.

This is the type of match that should be main eventing on Impact, building to the PPV. The title has to be defended at the PPV, period. I think Monty is the right guy right now. Give him the belt and see what happens. It couldn't really be worse, could it?

Well, it could, but we don't need to go there. Having Monty chase for the title is probably the best thing they could do right now.

Yeah, that would be nice, wouldn't it? Unfortunately, we're probably more likely to see Petey jobbing to Jeff Hardy.

I see what your saying.............but yes, it could be WAY worse. They could put the title on Nash, Hall, Savage..............

And seriously, how is that worse than JJ? At least they somewhat have names.

[Guest Coffey]

I'm not a big fan of TNA using the word "destiny" unless it involves Raven finally winning the TNA Title.

[Guest Salacious Crumb]

I think Monty Brown is probably the best option for the next champion. Yes, he's not that great but I think that's the best option because someone new needs the title.

[Astro101 0]

It's too bad Truth isn't in the position Monty's in. I mean, I think Brown's the best option at this point, but at the same time, they need someone more established, like a Truth who is in the thick of things and can play to the fans. Kind of a double edged sword.

WAY worse than Jarrett. Nash can't walk, Hall has been given too many chances, and Savage hasn't wrestled a match in almost 5 years.

 

Need more reasons........

[Guest whitemilesdavis]

And Jarrett's redeeming factor is what? He hasn't put on a decent match in a year or so, and he isn't drawing. At least one of those 3 guys would have better name recognition.

But...many talk of how TNA needs to build their own stars, and Monty Brown is one of those guys. Truth is not...really. Even though to a lesser extent of the others, he's still a 'bigger company name' as most remember him from WWE..

 

I actually think Monty Brown is a great choice for champ. I have the, I think second episode? On tape...and I can remember Monty Brown coming out, and after his match, his first promo, he did the whole 'it's Destiny that he's going to get the title' and that he'd stop at nothing to get it. Well, he's said it from day one. Whcih was like 2 years ago...it's about time he makes it come true seeing as in a way he's 'ready'.

I doubt many remember Truth from his brief, horrible stay in the WWE.

[Guest whitemilesdavis]

I would say Truth is a homegrown guy. I would add AJ and Monty as well. I know Truth and AJ have wrestled for other feds, but they really got their breaks in TNA. Truth is 10x better than Brown for the title, but he's just not in the spot right now.

Jarrett, Nash and Hall vs. Savage, Styles and Monty Brown.

 

I wonder how Monty gets inserted here. Maybe he demands a shot since he won the Monster's Ball and takes a beatdown from Jarrett and the Outsiders with Savage and Styles making the save. If this is the ME, Brown needs to pin Jarrett CLEAN with a Pounce, so he claim a shot at the January PPV. I actually think they should make it an elimination match, so that Hall or Nash can put over Styles too. Either way, Nash needs to bump his ass off for Styles, which I can actually see happening, since he seemed willing to do it at VR.

[TNABaddboi 0]

I just thought of something else: Has there been any word of where Turning Point will be taking place? I thought for awhile that they would probably try to hold the 2nd PPV in Nashville, or have it again in Orlando, but I was just wondering if a location had been confirmed.

[Stephen 0]

This isn't 96 and jarrett is not hogan.

[natey2k4 0]

Why is everyone taking so many shots at Hall? Nash/Savage I can see the points for... but Hall is a half decent worker, no not great but not horrific. If he keeps himself as excited to be there as he was last night... I wouldnt mind seeing Hall head the Card. Would a Hall/Styles match really be all that bad? I think not...

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

Because Hall has totally let himself go, is way out of shape, and is shot to hell as a worker. He can't do anything anymore, beyond provide cheap comedy, whether intentional or not.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

There is only one redeeming factor about Jarrett and only one. He won't leave the company high and dry like Nash/Hall/Savage WILL do eventually. I don't like Jeff WMD, and I agree he's not a draw whatsoever. But he will not abandon his own company......but Hall/Nash/Savage won't last their either. This is a question of who SHOULD be the main focus of the show. If this is all somehow a plan for them to try and get over the younger guys.........then fine. Otherwise it's all a waste of time AND money. In the end.........that's all that will really matter when it comes to TNA.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

I don't think it matters whether the plan is for the young guys to get over; I don't see either Nash, Hall or Savage willing to do it anyway. When Hall and Nash wrestled an a UPW show against Christopher Daniels in a tag match, even though far fewer people saw that than TNA, just, they still did the old 'banana peel' job, and made Daniels look like a chump, even though he got the pinfall. And Savage is known to put up tremendous fits about doing jobs, even when it's to people on his level, so I don't see him being willing to do one, a proper one, to someone he no doubt sees as a punk kid.

We'll judging from the Fan Reactions.. Why the hell aren't the mini's main eventing the show?

 

Lol, Just joking.
