After a video package looking back at last week’s situation involving Joseph Parkand Aces & Eights, as well as the controversial finish of the Bully Ray-Austin Aries match, we’re off to the Impact Zone where Hulk Hogan comes out to the ring to open the show. He reminds us that he has a date with Aces & Eights, and asks the fans to watch his back because this week is a turning point for the company. Bound For Glory is just three weeks away,… [Continue Reading]

We start off with a video package looking back at all the grudges that have cropped up recently in TNA, and anyone can challenge anyone else tonight because it’s OPEN FIGHT NIGHT! Hulk Hogan bumps into Shaq backstage (I guess he just happened to be back there), and Shaq said he’ll be watching Hogan’s back tonight if Aces & Eights decides to get rowdy. AJ Styles and Kurt Angle come out to say that they used to be champions, but got screwed by Daniels… [Continue Reading]

I’ll start off by saying that this card holds very little excitement for me. I’ll counter what I just said by expressing my optimism in TNA for the potential to give us an action packed pay per view. Lightning and I are once again joined by Jace Ace and KP. Thanks for sharing your thoughts guys! Here we go! BFG Series semi-final Samoa Joe vs. Jeff Hardy JA: So the ending of the match on iMPACT left me going, “WTF?” Since when is a… [Continue Reading]

We start off with an awesome video package looking at the final five competitors in the Bound For Glory Series, and we’ll have the final two regular season matches tonight…starting right now!

We start off by looking back at last week’s wild episode when Claire Lynch sent her attorney to reveal Daniels’ sinister blackmail plan, Robbie E pinned Rob Van Dam to earn points in the Bound For Glory Series, and Aces & Eights tried to break the arm of TNA World Champion Austin Aries. Speaking of Aries, he kicks us off this week and says he gives credit where it’s due, and recognizes that Aces & Eights pulled out all the stops last week by… [Continue Reading]

Chavo Guerrero and Hernandez defeated Gunner and Kid Kash. ^Filler material. TNA wants to push Chavo as a legend, but aside from competing all over the world, the man has never really accomplished anything spectacular or stood out in any capacity. Let’s be honest, Eddie carried him when they were Los Guerreros. Using a family name to keep popularity is sad; at least Vickie has become a unique character over time. Rob Van Dam defeated Mr. Anderson and Magnus in a falls count anywhere… [Continue Reading]

We started out with some pyro and then Mike Tenay and Taz welcomed everyone as they ran down the lineup for the show. Gunner and Kid Kash vs. Chavo Guerrero and Hernandez Kash and Gunner attacked Chavo and Hernandez before the bell and worked them over, tossing Hernandez out and double teaming Chavo. The crowd began chanting for Chavo, who dropkicked Kash out of the ring and nailed Gunner with the Three Amigos. Guerrero was cut off. Kash and Gunner worked him over with… [Continue Reading]

Ace, and we are hoping to have KP back for Summerslam to share his thoughts as well! Kid Kash and Gunner vs. Chavo Guerrero and Hernandez Ace: Chavo & Hernandez, only because Chavo’s new to TNA and has a storied history… [Continue Reading]

Original article found at: www.illegalforeignobject.com I love pro wrestling. The talking, the athleticism, the spectacle, the storylines, I love it all and I likely always will. As the world around us changes and evolves, so too does professional wrestling. For one, we’re now and instant gratification society and as such, much of our wrestling has followed suit. More television programming options means things move a whole lot faster than they once did, and the days of year long feuds are all but a thing… [Continue Reading]

We start off by looking back at last week when Sting and Hulk Hogan got laid out by Aces & Eights, with Hogan’s legit back surgery being written into storylines as a broken pelvis at the hands of Aces & Eights. Neither Hogan nor Sting is in the Impact Zone tonight, so who knows what is going to happen? We start off looking at the Bound For Glory Series leaderboard, as James Storm has regained the top spot with 42 points to second place… [Continue Reading]

TNA Destination X Final Thoughts: TNA delivered 95% on this ppv. The four way opening match was solid, and the four qualifying matches for the Ultimate X were solid. Joe and Angle put on a good match, and Daniels/Styles was as personal and physical as we expected it to be. The main event saw a new World Champion crowned in what will be one of the most underrated ppv main events this year. My only disappointment from the entire show would be the Ultimate… [Continue Reading]

Bully Ray kicks off the show by coming out to the ring to announce that he is officially going live on Twitter. The crowd chants that he sucks, but he says they’ll change his mind with he’s trending worldwide, and plugs his Twitter at @RealBully5150. Joseph Park grew a backbone and slapped him in the face, but he wants Joseph Park to get his ass out there right now. Park comes out with a determined look on his face, and Bubba says that Park… [Continue Reading]

Original content found at: www.illegalforeignobject.com Perhaps I’m the only one, but the inevitable “ECW! ECW! ECW!” chants heard from a small section of fans after every ungodly bump or hardcore spot at a major wrestling event just leaves me feeling sad. Not in a nostalgic longing sort of way either, just sad that so many remain entrenched in the past. ECW was an amazing moment in time, a time when everything came together for the tiny promotion, allowing it, despite working on a shoestring… [Continue Reading]

We start off with a look back at the events that led to Sting losing his mind and challenging Bobby Roode to a match at Victory Road, as well as Kurt Angle cutting a very jolly promo about his thoughts on Jeff Hardy.

Angle says Hardy has lots of hair and he… [Continue Reading]
