You can’t always take the dirts at face value, but if Grace really didn’t want to do this angle, she’s being a total pro because she is really selling it. I believe her character.

the ones I trust just said she previously had a problem with Tessa but once the first angle aired said she must have gotten over it or made up with her

 

[Chris]

This match was fucking awesome

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I love old school TNA probably more than most but we really don’t need these 10-year-old matches to fill up time. Please just tape more stuff.

That being said, seeing Kurt angle’s dope ass entrance with his kick ass theme is always fun to watch.

This main event mafia angle too.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Oh shit this is the Genesis match with angle and Jarret. I remember this match totally slapping.

No one talks about this match because so many people don’t want to give Jarrett his due but this match was fire.

 

[O-Blaze]

Jeff Jarrett has a banger theme also.

 

[Chris]

The angle/jarrett matches in 2009 and 2011 were so good

 

[Ricky Smarks]

They had another match at bound for glory in the same feud and I don’t remember which one was better but I do remember one was fucking really really good and the other one was genuinely great.

 

[O-Blaze]

But yeah, I remember this match. This is back when I was a huge hardcore TNA fan.

The angle/jarrett matches in 2009 and 2011 were so good

I’ll probably put the 2009 one matches just a little bit higher but yeah I forgot about those immortal ones in 2011 and those are also bangers. The one thing the 2011 matches did have over the 2009 ones was, they were acknowledging the fact that Karen had left angle for Jarrett which they didn’t do in 2009 even though it did happen at that time.

This was probably peak TNA for me. 2007-2009 was a goat two-year period.

 

[O-Blaze]

This was probably peak TNA for me. 2007-2009 was a goat two-year period.

During the period when I was able to get the PPVs. I probably go back and start with 05 to 09 or 10. Like I was so high on the product.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Jarret is fighting through the pain of that ankle lock. My boy got that fighting spirit.

You hear about his story in AEW right now?

Oh, don’t get me wrong. I was a TNA fan from the fucking jump. Still love 05 and 06 but I would say they probably perfected TNA right around the time that Angle Nash sting, and all them all came in at the end of 2006 and that was just beautiful television from that point forward. I also like 2010 more than most, but it was definitely different.

I know he’s got the nickname the last outlaw and he’s doing something. Hopefully good stuff.
