Without spoiling anything...

 

Personally, sometime in the future, I'd like to see a Raven/Sting match. ...if/when Raven gets in better health that is.

So how many minutes do Lethal and Shelley get before Nash runs in for the DQ?

[Astro101 0]

Nash only runs in after someone's down. It's the only way to book this angle without really making the division look weak.

you're right....i don't know why I forgot that's how they've been doing it. Either way, it should be a pretty good match.

[death_by_burrito 0]

Agreed, Lethal/Sabin should be good tonight. Should be an ok show tonight.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

Should be a good show, I look forward to it.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

Jeff Jarrett, there's a new way to start a show.

[Conspiracy_Victim 0]

Hey Jarrett why would the announcers know if you're wrestling? Is Karnak working the table suddenly?

[Astro101 0]

I really like how TNA has just gone and started off shows quickly, even if it is with Jarrett...at least it's about KOTM. Steiner is snapping on West! Bless you TNA for making me entertained by Steiner.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

Can the live crowd hear what Tenay and West say in response to Jarrett? If they can't, what is the use in them even replying?

[razazteca 0]

The announcers are the front office, silly.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Jarrett and Steiner always crack me up, thinking the announcers know.

 

...hey, the ramps cahnged a bit...

One might think that iMPACT was a 3 hour show edited down to 3 chapters or something.

It really doesn't make much sense for Gail Kim to be hanging out with two redneck cowboys.

[razazteca 0]

The naturals took their look from SF3?

[TNABaddboi 0]

For some reason, those outfits the Naturals are wearing make me think of the Hart Foundation. I'm definitely having a PINK AND BLACK ATTACK flashback...lol.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

It really doesn't make much sense for Gail Kim to be hanging out with two redneck cowboys.

She likes champions?

[razazteca 0]

So if I push the SAP would I get Armando Alejandro Estrada style announcing?

[JustJoe2k5 0]

If a grown man told me he had to change his underpants, I would never respond with "I understand."

[JustJoe2k5 0]

I don't think God would approve of what A.J. Styles just did to Gail Kim.

[Astro101 0]

I fucking heart Alex Shelley. His JB impersonation ruled.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

I really hope Kevin Nash didn't recruit Alex Shelley to be his little...bitch.

Anybody else want Christy to start doing commericals for a 1-900 hotline?

[JustJoe2k5 0]

Anybody else want Christy to start doing commericals for a 1-900 hotline?

 

I think TNA could shave some time off of Jeff Jarrett and Kevin Nash interviews to make room for one minute of Christy Hemme posing.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

TNA's video packages continue to improve.

[JustJoe2k5 0]

If you look at Shelley's tights, I believe Kevin Nash is slowly attempting to completely turn him into Syxx-Pac.

[razazteca 0]

Christy spots could be the new Morphoplex informercial!

[Astro101 0]

Can anyone tell me, is that the winged logo of Against All Odds they still have on top of the video screen up there?
