TNABaddboi 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 I know it's not a 2 hour special, but I still TNA missed the boat by not making a bigger deal out of this. I mean it's still an weeknight primetime show featuring a bankable match (Christian's debut). They might have been able to pop a decent rating had they pushed it a little harder.

FigureFourTapes 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Interesting little sequence there to start. I understand the reasoning behind making this match first....to let the public get to know the two main champions and show former WWF/E fans that Jeff Hardy is a part of NWA but really..... Jarret is just boring and an immediate channel changer. Atleast the action seems to be hot to start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Fuck, this is the problem with TNA. They should have let the 3D on the table sink in and instead they immediately go to the admittedly awesome Rhyno video. I love how they are getting across Rhynos motivation to win the title. I want the dude to win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steviekick 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 I did like the sequence with one of the AMWers and one Natural fighting on the edge of the stage. Actually, this is a problem that I've been following TNA for a year and still can't tell the members of tag teams apart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 I wish they'd have put Joe in there with someone that'd put more of Joe's strengths over. Stopping not to break Shelley's camera? That's not really in character. Cool, White Sox thing now, can't wait for Da Brain! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
