The Official TNA Impact Thread ( Check out eternalunderdog's awesome weekly recap of Impact )

[Denaratuck]

Well seeing as how Eternalunderdog said creating this thread would make him sad I decided I'll prevent that seeing as how he's suffered enough with his weekly recaps lol.

Anyways, I guess this thread will officially kick off tomorrow night when a new episode of Impact starts. I would say I look forward to seeing everyone post, but that means we're going to have to watch it first.

[The Legend Killer]

Yeah I still have last weeks show to watch, and as always I really don't want to.

I know what I'll do, I'll pop in my DOA Paradise on my PSP and play that while TNA is going on in the background. At least I'll get some enjoyment that way.

*Clicks video* What were we talking about again?

*Clicks video* What were we talking about again?

We were talking about sucky a$$ TNA.

So I watched the show and no joke just as I said. Anytime anything stupid was going on I started up a volleyball game, so as you can guess I played quite a bit of volleyball.

What is there to say, the show is stupid and they keep trying to make it edgy by having everyone swear and cuss ad nauseum.

Also don't you love how Matt Morgan "closed the door", the camera stayed outside but we could hear everything clear as day?

[Rightear186]

TNA aka Impact wrestling. I think is getting really really boring. They really need to come up with new stuff or it's going to die out.

dammit, now I'm gonna have to keep watching this crap.
ahh well maybe Ink Inc will show up again and :ahem: "attack" someone with a tattoo gun, at least that was semi funny.

[The Legend Killer]

Anyone know who the tattoo chick was, 'cause it"s obvious she"s a wrestler.

Her name escapes me at the moment, but yes she is a wrestler used to work for Shimmer and a couple other places. Rumor is she will be Ink Inc's new valet.

Well yeah, one look at her pretty much gave that part away.

Am I the only one who's grown tired of Tracy Brooks and her oversized pushed up fake boobs?

Christina Von Eerie, that was her name.....damn that was bugging the crap out of me.

Impact notes, it's a little long:

Toggle Spoiler

Wow Impact new record... five seconds in and you piss me off. Why? LIES! you recap that Roode should face a member of Fortune over the next few weeks, then remind me of the really nice match Kaz and Roode had, then you remind me that last week I was screwed out of Roode vs Daniels or Roode vs Storm. Screw you Impact, I know your gonna suck, just waiting for you to prove me ri.... oh Sting's(joker's) here, that didn't take long.

Does Sting not have his own merch to push that he keeps wearing Hogan's crap?
Well Sting of course Roode has momentum and fan support, he does this little thing called "wrestle". Maybe you heard of it I think at one point you tried to do it, then apparently you fell in a vat of toxins (wait wait wrong guy).

Stop promoting Sting vs Hogan, it is a bad idea and one bump away from a snuff film. Dear Impact fans, if you buy BFG to see Sting vs Hogan. If you support this god awful idea, you have no soul.... just saying.

Ha! Kurt's a man of integrity.... to bad he lost the intensity and intelligence, maybe they went with his hair.

What the hell is on Kendrick's head, like a native american title headress (I swear that's what it looked like)
Kash, Sorenson, Kendrick, Zema, Shelley Ladder match for title shot at BFG... has potential....
Kendrick dropkicks Kash on the ladder and Kash waits a good half second before throwing himself off with an over sell, not a good start.
Damn Kash works stiff!
They gotta stop putting Sorenson on TV, guy makes A-Ry look like William Regal.

Uh huh, so Kaz insult Jarrett's wife and his response is to find him backstage and....order him to the ring for a talkin' too, Jeff what happened to your balls man. Jump his ass 1) because I don't want to hear you talk and 2) because I really do not want to hear you talk.
Holy crap Tracy Brooks chest is huge! You could bounce a quarter off those things and put out an eye. I'm amazed she doesn't bounce when doing a front bump. I love how Simon Diamond holds Tracy back by placing his head and shoulder against her chest, surprise motorboat!

Jesse Neal put on weight, not like Matt Hardy weight but it is noticable. However his mohawk is strangly hypnotizing.
Huh, so LAX 2.0's finishing combo is a spinning backdrop by Not-Homicide, followed by the gayest Superfly splash ever by Hernandez... well that's ok I didn't like them anyway.

But Kurt Angle is playing a cowardly pansy, why would I want to have the same insurance as him?

Oh my god there is more silicon in this company than a 90's issue of Playboy.
At least the Divas attempt to have wrestling matches (not always great but attempt is made) and is there a single knockout who owns ring gear that covers their ass. Don't get me wrong I love a nice backside, but a little diversity or mystery is a good thing.
Madison Rayne's new gimmick is to whore herself to the refs?
Gratuitous butt shot as Madison crawls up the enterance ramp, don't ask me why she's crawling I guess she trying to sell the TWO second beating she took.

Okay guess the Joe vs Morgan feud is just gonna end at 1-1. And now Crimson is gonna beat Joe like a Velocity jobber, but it's okay Joe (a technical wrestler with great submission background) will just practically knock him out with a groin shot. Does nobody in wrestling wear a cup?!
Nevermind Morgan's back.... way to be edgy TNA bleep an inaudible curse word.

Pope vs Anderson, I can't even pretend I think this match will be worth watching. Does anyone know why Anderson has a giant 33 on his ass? Pope is so horriblly underused.
Anderson neds to hit the gym some more, he's getting Flair handles. Umm, hey ref those guys (Devon's sons) just grabbed Anderson that's a DQ.
This is not just a TNA flaw, but I always love when he ref is talking to one wrestler and suddenly both he and said wrestler jump in the ring to find the other wrestler knocked out and the first guy gets the pinfall. Then the ref never NEVER checks on the downed wrestler. If he was coherrent one second and suddenly out cold one of two things has happened: A) someone attacked this wrestler and you need to find out wht happened or B) this wrestler has had some kind of medical emergency and needs immediate attention, don't count the pinfall get the paramedics.

TNA you don't need to sell us on Roode, we have been pushing for this for two years.

Oh thank god AJ's actually gonna wrestle Roode, here's hoping these guys show why they deserve better pushes than WWE leftovers.
Some really nice technical stuff to start off.
How can anyone watch a match like this and still justify pushing Anderson more than Styles?
Gentlemen, nice match.. very nice match if this show ended right now it would be one of the better episodes of Impact, but no we still get Hogan's announcement.

Hogan talking about how long his run should be, hilarious- Hogan your "run" ended ten years ago (except Mr. America, that s*** was awesome). Watching the fans behind Hogan just file out of the building, oh these are the moments you live for. Stop booing Hogan should have retired long ago. I will say this I think Hogan believes most of what he's saying, I think he believes he was helping Impact. I'm curious how this retirement angle will play out, Id love it to be true, but I just can't shake the feeling of work, work, work.

Well that's the show, amazingly this was much better than last week. No Winter, the matches were tolerable, no Winter, they didn't tease a decent match then take it away, no Winter, and Hogan might be retiring.

[Denaratuck]

Awesome recap. I actually missed all of Impact tonight because I was asleep. However, I know I would of been pissed if I was watching it because of what I read from your recap. It baffles my mind, the amount of mini stories that Impact are trying to do at once. we still don't really know whats going on with The Pope, Devon, and his Kids. Anderson and Angle have changed alliances more times than I can count over the past few months. Why are Immortal and Fortune still around? Why is Andeson, Sting, Hogan, and Flair given so much airtime.

And another thing. A few months back, maybe even weeks actually. I remember them holding a series of matches with Kid Kash, Awesome Ares, and Zema to name a few to see who would get a contract after winning. Ares won, but this is stupid. Why promote these matches saying the winner gets an Impact contract when you're just going to keep everyone around anyways. I don't like being lied to in the first place, but this is just some of the stupid crap TNA is known for.

Get rid of the majority of your staff and writers. Give the young guys a chance to show what they can do and develop them into the future of the company and please, please, please stop Sting versus Hogan. I don't want to see either of them in a wheelchair within the next few years. Oh and get rid of Anderson. Its like he's trying to act like an asshole but his acting background consisted of about $10 worth of training and he skipped out on $9.99 of it.

[majiintien]

I don't watch on a regular basis, so I have a question. Was that the first time they ripped off the nWo spray paint thing? I can't believe they haven't gone under yet. I also don't watch it all the way through.

No they did that bit with the original LAX once or twice and now with Mexican America (LAX 2.0)

Good show sir, you that is, not Impact.

Though I will admit this weeks Impact did have a fair amount of wrestling, and very good wrestling at that. It's like Spoony says, when they shut the f**k up and wrestle the show picks up.

I love how TNA advertises all show long that Hogan is going to make a blockbuster announcement at the end of the night. Then Hogan comes out, talks for like 10 minutes only to announce that he will be making that announcement next week.

Holy s**t it's JTG, oops wait wrong show.

[majiintien]

No they did that bit with the original LAX once or twice and now with Mexican America (LAX 2.0)

OK, thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't watching TNA at all when LAX had it's run, so I don't feel right calling Mex-Am LAX 2.0. But, I get why you do and I think it's funny. I just can't do it myself.

I wouldn't call them that if there was even one difference between LAX and Mexican America (LAX 2.0), but there's not. They have the same gimmick as the previous group- Hell there was more difference between the Blackjacks and New Blackjacks (contender for worst tag team ever) than between LAX and LAX 2.0.

Also it seems like Hernadez, who at one point looked to be steeping up as a performer, is just coasting at this point. He's getting sloppy, stagnant, and boring. Well his contract is up soon, wonder if TNA will try to invest in him for a few more years.

[eternalunderdog]

I'm going to Disneyland, so I'm gonna miss Impact this week. I'll watch it Monday and post thoughts then. Rip it a new one for me!

So after two years of a garbage judicial system, Jeff Hardy finally goes to jail....for 10 days.

Jeff Hardy Begins His 10-Day Jail Sentence - eWrestlingNews.com

Jeff Hardy checked into a North Carolina jail to serve his 10-day sentence yesterday. Hardy, 6-foot 1-inch and 215-pounds at the time he checked in, was reportedly wanting to get his jail time over with as soon as possible and that is why he turned himself in on Monday morning to begin the sentence.

Hardy was originally arrested back in 2009 after police found drugs in his home. Hardy struck a deal with the prosecutor after two-years of court room dancing, which saw Hardy plead guilty to two counts of possession of a controlled substance and one count of conspiracy to traffic in exchange for a 10 day jail sentence, 30 months of probation and a $100k fine.
