TNABaddboi 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2006 Haven't read this week's spoilers yet, but since the show's in a couple of hours, I figured I'd go ahead and start the discussion. Here's the preview, courtesy of TNAWrestling.com: THIS SATURDAY ON "iMPACT!" ON SPIKETV The road to "Against All Odds" continues Saturday night on "iMPACT!" will be a big night for TNA management and all the fans as it will be the SpikeTV debut of the wrestling icon Sting! TNA officials will be going all out for the "iMPACT!" debut of "The Man In Black" as he will discuss his future plans in TNA Wrestling! What's next for Sting? Will he go for the NWA World Heavyweight Title against Jeff Jarrett? Tune in Saturday night to find out! IN ACTION THIS SATURDAY NIGHT ON SPIKETV: Main Event: X Division Street Fight "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles vs. "The Prince of Punk" Shannon Moore The escalating war between AJ Styles and TNA newcomer "The Prince of Punk" reaches a boiling point this Saturday night as the two stars will battle it out in an X Division Street Fight! Come as you want, bring what you want - the rules will be thrown out the window until only one star stands victorious! The "iMPACT!" in-ring debut of The James Gang Also this Saturday night on SpikeTV, it will be the "iMPACT!" in-ring debut of the reunited James Gang. One of the greatest tag teams in wrestling history, BG James and Kip James got their first win back together at "Final Resolution" and look to continue their winning ways on "iMPACT!" as they prepare for war against Konnan's "Latin American Exchange"! Also in action on Saturday night: Chris Sabin and Sonjay Dutt vs. The Diamonds In The Rough Team Canada vs. The Truth, Lance Hoyt and Shark Boy Plus, matches to be announced for the February 12 "Against All Odds" Pay-Per-View event and appearances by your favorite TNA stars including Christian Cage, Jeff Jarrett, Team 3D, "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown, Gail Kim and many more! It's good to see they aren't going to run the AJ/Punk angle to the PPV, because I'd really like to see them use the towel thing from the PPV to jumpstart AJ/Daniels killer feud from last year. I'm assuming we'll get the standard "new star main event interview" that we got from Christian and Team 3D. The James Gang squash will probably be unentertaining, but IMO, BG's been delivering the best promos of his career lately. Hopefully we get to hear some more from him. The other matches seem filler, so I don't have my hopes up for a great show. Hopefully I'm surprised. Anyway, you know the deal...keep yer before, during and after Impact thoughts in here, and keep it ~SPOILER FREE~ until 11! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 I agree on BG. He was always entertaining, but it's nice to see that he can cut something with a little substance to it. Looks like a decent show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 So BG finally breaks away from his DX character? It's about time, too bad Billy Gunn has nothing to say other than one liners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Yeah, but you know what? If they let BG cut his promos, have Kip get off his "bitch" line, and let them go out and do the kind of wrestling they did in the WWE, it *should* be good. BG can still brawl and pop the crowd, and Kip is great in the "come in, hit a power move or two, tag out" role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EdwardKnoxII 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 I was thinking about this while watching their ad. Does anyone else think morphoplex sound like the name of a new kind of suplex instead of a weight loss pill? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Astro7x 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Why is it that my SpikeTV has just been airing commercials nonstop since 11pm? It's on DirecTV I believe, routed through my school's cable system. Basically tons of DirecTV PPV commercials Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Astro7x 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Are you sure you got the right station? Spike TV is 325 on DirecTV. Yeah... I think it's my campus cable system not sending the right station to us. Oh well... hopefully they fix it by the Monday replay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 A lot of time left for the main event. But what's the deal with Moore's music? Not very punkish, I didn't think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 HA! Daniels on Shelley: "If he really wants to see the best of the X-Division, he should buy my DVD." Awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 I feel like I'm watching an indy show right now. (That's not a compliment.) The one guy in blue jeans vs. the other guy in face paint will have that effect, although this hasn't felt particularly polished. I'm not a big Samoa Joe guy, but he *does* look intimidating just standing there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoff 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Very smartly booked ending. I'd be bothered by Punk getting the cheap win, but he did look good throughout the match. CAPTAIN CHARISMA~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
