(Remember...Starting this Thursday, May 31, IMPACT moves an hour earlier to a new start time of 8pm LIVE on SpikeTV!)

Preview Thursday's IMPACT WRESTLING on SpikeTV!

- It's a historic broadcast as IMPACT goes LIVE all summer on SpikeTV with a new start time at 8/7c!

- IMPACT WRESTLING will come on the air live at 8PM with the return of "The Icon" Sting to action as he faces World Heavyweight Champion Bobby Roode in a Lumberjack Match with the ring surrounded by TNA Superstars.

- Brooke Hogan will make her IMPACT WRESTLING debut. How will the Knockouts react?

- On Thursday's IMPACT WRESTLING broadcast LIVE on SpikeTV at the new start time of 8/7c
Devon will defend the Television Championship against the choice of the fans! Who will be the choices? Starting this Monday, visit IMPACTWRESTLING.com and we'll reveal one challenger each day. Then, voting will open at noon eastern time on Thursday, May 31st! YOU pick who Devon defends the title against that night! The power will be in YOUR hands during the LIVE television broadcast on Thursday!

- The countdown is on to the June 10 "Slammiversary" event - IMPACT will feature news on our big 10 year anniversary spectacular

- Plus, all of your favorite IMPACT WRESTLING superstars including General Manager Hulk Hogan, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, Rob Van Dam, Bully Ray, the high-flying X Division Superstars, the lovely but lethal Knockouts and more!

All this and much more on Thursday's IMPACT WRESTLING broadcast at 8/7c LIVE on SpikeTV
I expect them to go all out this Thursday in an attempt to hard sell the new time slot and live show. I'm hoping that they get off to a good start, but Brooke Hogan is not exactly going to set my world on fire. The very fact that she's so prominently mentioned both in the preview and on those stupid commercials really bugs me. However, I'll look past it and just bring along a little extra booze on Thursday night, so you all do the same and join me in the LD OF THE CENTURY!!!

First RVD, then Anderson? Man they really don't want me to care, do they?

Third guy was just announced and its Robbie E. Now I know you care about him!

I still think the last guy announced is going to be Garett and "the fans" are all going to vote for him.

:whoo:

Shame he (Robbie) won't stand a chance. Hopefully he'll beat Garret at least to beat the massage into TNA's head that no one cares for Bischoff Jr.

Fourth guy in is Jeff Hardy. If the fans votes are truly being counted, it comes down to him and RVD. I think Hardy might edge him out at this point. I have to admit, this is kind of exciting.

Well that's gonna be Hardy then. Followed by RVD, then Anderson, then Robbie E.

Damnit, they're protecting Garret from us!

I guess I'm glad Garrett didn't even get put in the runnings, would be interesting to see someone more important than Devon hold the TV title, I'll admit. For some reason I want Hardy to get the shot.

Also, just a heads up I've got a pre-public tomorrow and I need to study so I doubt I'll be here for the LD! :(
I'll probably have the show on though because it's sure to be a good one so maybe you'll hear my thoughts on some things tomorrow!

Well Hardy certainly is a good television figure with the hair and face paint so I'm gonna go with him getting the shot

Did you vote? I voted for RVD. It's probably the only time in my life I'll ever vote RVD for anything. :lol:

With Hogan in charge, we're just as likely to see Curry Man get a title shot than any of the options..
