Stephanie handled that little pr fluff really well in that twitter interview.

I'd love to Steph on RAW Monday night

Jeff Jarrett's tag team partner at Triplemania will be... Kurt Angle! So, it will be Jarrett & Angle vs. Electroshock & LA Park.

Fucking excellent! Can't wait

Have we all seen WWE's wacky SummerSlam ad?



If you don't find this at least a little but fun then you have no fucking soul.

Yes fun in a lame cheesy american idol ford commercial sort of way

Fucking Great News! I can't fault them for signing him as he would be a solid addition to the roster in whichever position they put him in.

Chavo & Hernandez have been teaming on the indy scene lately. . . So maybe they team up in TNA



Either that or he's going in the X Division. Both options make sense, really. Jesse Sorenson, Chris Sabin and Sonjay Dutt have all went down with bad injuries through mistimed or over paced spots over the last few months, and to be honest that X Division tournament was a fucking mess of botched spots and knees to the wind pipe. They probably want someone to slow this lot down and stop them killing each other.

And it's interesting that they keep bringing in more and more new talent, especially in light of Dixie's comments on TNA Today the other day that they're thinking of starting to run two house show loops at a time.

Daniel Bryan seriously has no rhythym, but even HE made something work. LOL Great video.

Ok this storyline has the same hitch in it that the whole NWO/Sting had. If 7 guys are beating up 1 guy in the middle of the ring why does the locker room not empty out into the fight? Hope they say AJ is still being effected by this woman claiming it's his baby. He an Anderson had a very obvious botched ending.

Impact

Wasn’t as good as it usually is. Not many good matches on the show, but a few things came along nicely, so it wasn’t a bad show. Seemed like a show based purely to get over the awesome biker blokes. They were all over this show.
--Show opened with an update on the condition of Hulk Hogan. He suffered a fractured pelvis during the attack of the Aces and Eights last week. They showed pictures of Hogan in the hospital and the scar from his surgery. But forget all that tonight is OPEN FIGHT NIGHT!
--James Storm is first up in the Open Fight Night. He said Bobby Roode’s time is coming. He then called the Aces and Eights “a bunch of damn cowards”. Then for his Open Fight Night said he wanted to fight the biggest lion in the company Kurt Angle. Kurt’s music played ONCE! No Kurt. It played TWICE! No Kurt (you know what’s coming). Storm sends a camera man to the back to see where the man who placed 22 in the BBC3 Top 100 Olympic Moments is. The camera gets to the back to see four or five of the Skeleton Heads giving Kurt a doing over. They aren’t prejudice, this lot. Looking at this, Bound For Glory could have Kurt, Sting, Hogan and a few others wrestling the Aces in a big Nexus vs. WWE style match. Fucking Yes!
--Samoa Joe comes out and calls out the The Pope. Pope and Joe go about eight minutes. Better than the matches that had every week for a year about 18 months ago. Joe beat him clean with a arm bar to gain 10 points. Joe looked like he lost a tooth. He kept putting his finger in the inside of his cheeks and looked in agony post match. Decent stuff.
--Jason Hervy from the Wonder Years is grilling Bobby Roode about calling Austin Aries out and asking if he had anything to do with the attack on Hogan last week. Roode stormed off. The camera does a close up of a smirking Hervy doing the “these guys” shoulder shrug.
--Jeff Hardy makes his entrance and is about to call someone out. Before he can get the words out, Robbie E and Robbie T makes their way down the aisle, in lovely red cardigans. The fans never get louder than when Hardy comes out. The people are so into him. Robbie T kept interfering, so Jeff gave him a pasting on the outside and what do you know? Robbie E gained a count out victory? Robbie went over! Both Robs looked chuffed. “We did it, bro!” He said. Good for him.
--Eric Young and ODB did a spot of comedy plugging EY’s new show. It wasn’t as good as ODB and Ey's usual stuff is.
--After the break we have the Gut Check Challenge. Some bloke called Sam Shaw cut a generic as fuck promo. Then the Aces and Eights run in and smack this bloke about. Give him a good kicking. The big Luke Gallows looking bloke especially getting stuck in. If there was ever a Gut Check I wanted to see someone get wiped out it was this one. Got bad vibes from this lad. Looked and sounded like a waste of time. The fact they interrupted the Gut Check just got those Joey Ryan rumours started again. Would make sense if he is one of them. Al Snow, Brother Love and Taz helped Sam to the back.
--Mr. Anderson and AJ Styles had match, where Anderson won. Anderson looks awful. Cant believe he won. To make matters worse, Claire Lynch came out. She wasn’t to bad this week. She said something AJ getting pissed and shagging her. AJ said “never happened, love”. She then showed pictures of AJ on the bed with her lying next to him. AJ was out cold on the pictures so AJ was probably out of it, drugged or something. She’s up to something. I still think Hervy is fucking her.
--Bellator announcer Sean Wheelock embarrassed Taz and Tenay when he joined the commentary table for the RVD and Daniels match. He said on a Figure 4 Daily interview he wouldn’t mind doing some commentary on Impact, so he got his wish. He smoked Taz and Tenays arses. He was passionate, excited and seemed to know what he was talking about. And when he was plugging Bellator he kept mentioning TNA or wrestling with in it (“I hope these Aces and Eights guys don’t invade Bellator” etc.). It was odd to hear a voice on the Impact announce team that didn’t sound like a zombie. Daniels won by the way.
--Austin Aries did a good little interview backstage where he said Bobby Roode’s title win was a fluke. He carries himself so well. Aries is great. When he picked his World title belt up, there was some playing cards underneath it. Aries didn’t seem to worried.
--Brooke Hogan was on the phone with Mike Tenay and Taz. Lasted 30 seconds. Strange as fuck. She just said “he’s in a bad way, I don’t want to talk about it” and then said “bye”.
--Joseph Park was asking Garrett if he needed any legal representation. When Garrett quizzed Joseph about last week, Joseph didn’t know what he was talking about. He left pretty sharpe.
--Magnus and Bully Ray were the last two in the Open Fight Night BFG series. Bully got a quick start in, by attacking Magus on his way to the ring. Magnus has improved a shit load. He had a good match with the Bully. They don’t do enough with Magnus. Bully won this one, which was about right. He hardly ever wins. Enjoyed it.
--Vignette played for the debut of Chavo Guerrero next week.
--Bobby Roode came out for the final segment of the show. He had his nice Terry Taylor robe on. He called Aries out and they actually had a match. I thought Aries would have been laid out, but no. Really good match as you would expect from these two. It ended in a double DQ (I think) when the Aces and Eights ran out again and gave Aries a doing over. Roode began laughing and saying “that’s my boys”. They then turned on him and gave him a good hiding as well. Confusing end. They need to start giving us a few clues now, because its really getting strange. I don’t know where this leaves Roode (the companies top heel). Is he a face? If not, he just got the shit kicked out of him by a load of heels.

Alright show, but not as good as Raw this week. Open Fight Nights are usually filled with a million matches to fit in all the BFG competitors, which isn’t convenient. Hopefully normal service will resume next week. Still worth a look, though.
