The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Damn, I never noticed how pimply Dutt's upper body is. Also, this angle has already started on the wrongest of wrong foots. Not to say there's no hope for it, but...yeah, it's not looking good. Yeah, it should've been simple. Dutt should've went on a rampage. He should of took out Lethal, than took out all the legends, and than boom you have instant heel heat...But this is TNA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jingus 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Ya know, I'd actually maybe not mind seeing an Awesome Kong vs. Eric Young feud. Eric's over enough that it would have heat, but wimpy enough that nobody would disbelieve Kong beating the shit out of him. Moose Knuckles? Moose Knuckles?! Jesus Fuckpuppies Christ. I guess that was Russo's plan B if they shot down Camel Toe? I understand they have to change the name (well, actually I don't, considering that this isn't the WWE with their guaranteed contracts and full-time schedule and most of these people are still forced to work the indies to make their living and so it's just sadistic to not let them use their own names), but I don't know if you could try to make a worse name than Moose Knuckles. What the hell is TNA's problem with coming up with decent new names? I mean, Brother Runt, "The Punisher" Andrew Martin, Sinshe, Roxxi L'aueveiaough, the five million crappy names of Billy Gunn, god they're terrible at it. How did the women's match go down, exactly? Meltzer's report is pretty vague. I'm wondering why 1.Mickie gets beaten in her very first match, and 2.why the focus of the BP feud seems to have randomly been shifted from Roxxi, who has yet to get the tiniest bit of revenge, to ODB who seems able to squash them every time.

bob_barron 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 We bought the show, and then when we saw the video package, we realised this was a horrible idea. So we cancelled our order, but they haven't shut off the show yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 AJ's done so many impact moves to Angle's head and neck at this point that i don't see how Angle would be able to stand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 huh...that was kinda brilliant. AJ has to put his foot right into Angle's arm to get a Styles Clash and Angle took it and put him in the anklelock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 How did they "kill" Tomko's character? He went from not giving a fuck about, Kurt, Aj, Christian, Karen or any of that bullshit. He was just going out and destroying people. Than they turned him heel, and made him part of the Angle Alliance, and now he's just your typical henchman type heel, that is used as a steeping stone for the face, to get to the bigger heel.

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 I liked that they didn't have Joe qualified and had him scrambling around saving himself. They weren't gonna be able to have the highspots without Styles in there, but they took advantage of the "controlled chaos" aspect as best they could. Would have been a lot more dramatic if I didn't put it at about 99.99% that Joe was winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 This is why they shouldn't have had the X guys do all the cool shit on impact. Watching that match and this match, I'm sure most would agree the Impact KOTM was miles better. This show was better than I expected, wish Storm had a spot on the card, but hey. I liked the Angle/Styles match, more than anything on the ppv tonight, I think Styles came out looking awesome, Kurt was good too, not a MOTYC but still a cool match.

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 The guys that came off this show looking best IMO were Styles, Joe and Kaz. That makes me happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Yeah, I guess I could see that. I honestly didn't know the champ hadn't never won KOTM. Who was champ when Jarrett won it, and the place almost rioted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Christian was that time. It ended his first and floundering face run with the belt. IIRC Truth would have been champ the first time JJ won, Styles was champ when Raven won, Christian when Jarrett won again, and vacant last year when Angle won. It's kind of cheating since there wasn't a champion who COULD have won the match last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Epic Reine 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 I think they're doing Joe/Sting for BFG, it seems like they're building up a Sting retirement angle similar to what WWE did with Flair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Sting has been in the last 2 title matches at BFG, it'd be a mistake to go that route again. I think if they do a "Flair retirement" angle with Sting, the only guy who can play HBK in the company is Christian, maybe Angle. But they've already did Angle/Sting at BFG, so that wouldn't work. Plus, I'm sure they'll find away to make Angle/JJ the co mainevent to Styles/Joe this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Truthiness 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 SOUTHAVEN, MS (WMC-TV) - A crew member with the TNA Wrestling promotion was killed Sunday night in an accident at the DeSoto Civic Center. The accident happened Sunday night around 11pm, shortly after a televised wrestling event had concluded. Officials said a group of men was working to break down a metal backdrop, which was about 15 to 20 feet off the ground, when a scaffolding collapsed. A TNA Wrestling crew member, who was on top of the scaffolding at the time, fell and hit the concrete. He was rushed to Baptist DeSoto hospital in Southaven, where he later died. Another worker with a local group, Crew 1, lost his thumb in the accident. He was taken to The MED, where he is expected to recover. Authorities have not yet released the names of either of the men.
