Thank the Wrestling Gods Garrett is out.

Nothing against AJ but I really wanted Aries to win. Although him competing for the title does make sense

[Jared]

AJ's marriage is gonna go the way of Cena's.

BTW, did they ever explain why Kasarian was reluctantly working for Daniels a few months ago. Now he seems like a legit heel.

Who exactly are we supposed to root for in this? AJ and Dixie for cheating on their spouses or Kaz and Daniels for taking advantage of the affair?

You mean THE SECRET!?!
No, it was a Russo angle, he left before it got resolved, so it got dropped.

According to PWInsider.com, TNA has released X-Division wrestler Anthony Nese. The report notes that Nese wanted to work the Pro Wrestling Syndicate iPPV, which would have seen him in a tag match with The Great Muta, however TNA wouldn't allow him to participate. They did say they would grant him his release, however, and he accepted.

nese is ok, but they never used him anyways. *sigh* guess they had to make room for alex silva.

Daffney is a prime example of how poor TNA treats their workers

but i thought all WCW/WWE rejects were treated like kings/queens??

Going live again? Hopefully it goes well, with less technical errors, and a consistent roster. Best part about it is that it's still going to be on Thursdays.

As for the other announcement...

BOOOOOOO!

Steiner was right.

damn, couldn't they give people a chance to get used to the time change before going live??

Yep. Meanwhile the WWE Title is about as important as the IC and US Title

hey hey, brianson had to beat lawler to get a title match, and remember not long ago lawler was kicking the champions ass!! wait on 2nd thought maybe the don't care.

no not really. though in a wrestling world it could makes sense that pics is what daniels had all along and frankie was trying to protect AJ then somwhere along the line daniels convinced frankie to see things his way.

i am happy to see the socal sinners with the belts though. joe & magnus had a good run, kind of hope they're not done yet.

impact was good tonight, i enjoyed all the matches pretty much.

bobby roode kicking off the bobby roode show is always nice, until assface hogan shows up.

having qualifying matches for "open fight night" is xactly the kind of thing i knew was going to happen that would make the entire concept not work. that shit is dumb as hell, just wanted to get that out of the way(and say i'm surprised the whole idea hasn't been bashed like hell in this thread).

RVD vs bully was cool. i was thinking bully does too many jobs so i was glad they threw him a win here. bully>the kardashians

the battle royal was good, nice to see AJ looking like a star again.
i wonder if bitchoff is madi's love interest?? GEE i sure hope so.

not feeling the AJ/dixie scandal but the sinners were pretty good in that piece, especially daniels.

mr butthole vs hardy was a good way to even the score and further their program. guess a 2 of 3 falls match would be coming up soon.

KO 3way was ok. not sure where they go from here though.

joe vs angle was a good tv main event match, enjoyed it for what it was.

i also enjoyed the flashback segments they showed all night to promote slamiversary.

"U need to go to Rent-a-Center and rent a brain"
I just imagined Steiner saying this.
I miss him.

Obviously, I've been gone a while, and reading this Steiner/Brooke/Hulk stuff is hilarious! Seriously, what the hell's Hogan gonna sue him for?

When it comes to the Heavyweight and X-Division (lightweight, really) titles, TNA is making them more than legit and serious. I wish Roode is champ beyond BFG actually. Same with Aries.

Who I think will be champ next:AJ (for a few months), then it will be Bully...

Who I think will be the next X-Div champ: Ion

I'd like for Bully to be the champ. A run thats way overdue

I agree. If Roode hadn't stepped up at the same time, it's pretty much a gimme that Bully Ray would have been champ by now.

Finally watched Impact - that was a really solid episode. Minimal Hulkster, solid wrestling matches, not much nonsense. I really liked how they built the Angle/Joe match up throughout the episode - it felt like a special deal that they were wrestling on TV.

Most importantly I liked how that whole episode made the main title look important

Totally. They kept they eyes on the prize, and everyone came off looking good. They even remembered to protect Aries a bit in that battle royal rather than just dump him out (and waste whatever momentum he got from his match with Ray).

Episodes like this week's are the cure for TNA's ratings stagnation. String a bunch of them together, and things might pick up.

Agreed, if TNA had episodes this good years ago then it would be crapped on by the IWC
