The thing that gets me about the finish, is how Earl and Larry are aparently in league with Jerrat. Than why did Larry bring Earl in for the Christian/Jerrat title match. I mean wouldn't they have screwed Christian then? Wouldn't it make more sense for Christian to be in league with them? I know this disregards the controversy in Canada stuff. But they forgot about that anyway.

Shh...don't bring up plot holes!

 

Maybe they could say that Jarrett only bribed the both tonight and that Larry before didn't have the guts to go through with Jarrett's plans in the past? I dunno.

I don't think Christian's run has been bad at all. Not AMAZINGOMG, but dude, he has had some good matches during his reign. The Abyss feud was all too short.

 

I think I'm gonna get the replay to this :)

 

Im not saying his matches sucked but Im saying his reign has been garbage. So..he's held the title for what now? 4 to 6 months and he's only had ONE meaningful championship feud with Abyss. And feuding with a rip off of Kane and Mankind hybrid doesnt exactly make you the most credible champion. And the build up to his PPV matches are ALWAYS overshadowed by Jarret and his angles. You barely see him on tv. The only time we do see him on tv is to hear his crappy face promos. And to anyone that says that his promos in TNA are good than you are too stubborn to admit the truth. Christian does not work as a face thanking the fans and defending his wife. He works as a cocky and comical heel. His wit is so powerful that he gets loud pops anyway when he's a heel. That's the Christian we should see.

Larry had power back then, now he has lost all his power and the only way to keep any kind of power was to stick with Jarrett. Which makes sense back from the Dudley funeral segment.

Earl is the same way, a fear of Cornette and a desperate need to keep power.

 

That's all it was about and that's all the whole angle since the Dudleys and Sting arrived: Power and how to keep it.

It was pretty strongly implied during the "Jackie has dirt on Jarrett storyline" that if Jarrett got fired, Larry Z was going with him, so it does make sense that he'd protect Jarrett when the chips were down.

I dont know why everyone bitches so much about JJ, sure were sick of him being champ, but hes the only heel in the company that could have carried off that ending of the show. No other wrestler in the match could have carried it off.

 

Plus, as someone stated earlier, a cliffhanger is a great way to get people to watch the next show.

that's tna's fault that they haven't built up any credible heels.

and like someone said, the cliffhangers should come on the tv shows, and be resolved on the ppv. you don't pay to see a cliffhanger and a non-finish.

Posted

Exactly what he said. Cliffhangers are for TV shows. PPVs END cliffhangers.

 

There's no reason whatsoever why Abyss couldn't have won that. He's massively over, he did a FACE TURN DURING THE MATCH (which apparently everyone has forgotten) and turned on Jarrett and his gang, and then nothing. NOTHING. He's deserving of the belt dammit.

It's because we are sick of him that people hate (and not in the good way, Jarrett marks) Jarrett being back on top. Jarrett being the top guy is played out to death. If Jeff getting the belt back is just to transition it to someone else, then it won't be so bad. But any kind of lengthy reign is two steps backwards for TNA.

In a bizarre way I can see how this could turn out decent for TNA. I'm assuming the idea here is to have Jarrett be a blatantly undeserving champion and then have Joe kill him beyond dead. At least I'd HOPE that is the grand scheme.

 

The main problem is that Jarrett to me inspires no real hate. Maybe he does with the Orlando crowd, but I have always found him too namby pamby to be a serious heel threat. Problem is that he's not all that old so he could hang around for years to come.

If the undeserving champion only has a transitional reign, then it's not as bad as it would be if the reign was of any real length. Too long of an undeserving champion holding a title makes that title mean less, which is a bad idea when the title in question is meant to be your world title.

I'd say Shawn Michaels had the Mother of All Undeserved Title Reigns from Survivor Series 1997 till WM 14. So a guy holding it for 5-6 months isn't necessarily a bad thing. Problem is that Shawn was a freshly heel DX character at that point, whereas Jarrett is his usual stale self.
