Thanks for taking a minute out of getting ass fucked to show up.
Well i didnt miss much, @Solidus i'll hit this section up when i get my award. OH TESTS MOTHER! :testify:
Will watch on Wednesday - that's when the show is aired on Challenge for free (hehehehehe). Crowd was apparently fantastic, decent matches but obviously the show still lacked that big IT Factor in both Roode and general all-around superstars. Wished Roode, The Wolves, EY and Lashley would have been at the show - heck, if half of them are somehow STILL to expensive to get in, upgrade the equipment so the stage looks better, maybe get more people in if possible (probably not) and do more buildup for the show.
Samoa Joe vs Low Ki vs Kaz Hayashi and the main event are gonna be awesome. Storm deserves to be one of TNA's top heels (alongside Team Lashley).

I'm about to watch this. Bound For Glory is bound to be good. It has a decent card. So, I assume the show is still gonna be good, even without the biggest TNA names.
Anyways, I will rate/review it later.

Just done watching it. It was very good! 7/10
The crowd was great, but not in the sense that they were loud for the entire show... No, it's more like they showed a tremendous amount of respect for the performers.
- Manik vs Tanaka was a damn good, fast paced match. I enjoyed it!
- EC3's promos were goooood. The kid is money, and reeks of charisma. Gotta love him! His match against Hama was okay, though. EC3 sold everything like a boss! Glad he got the win! [HASHTAG]#TROUBLETROUBLETROUBLETROUBLETROUBLETROUBLE[/HASHTAG]
- MVP vs Sakamoto was fine, even entertaining at some bits. Damn, MVP is so much better as a babyface!
- Samoa Joe vs Low Ki vs Kaz was easily highlight of the night.
- The Wrestle-1 tag match was alright, I guess, wasn't too much into it, though!
- Team 3D vs Tommy Dreamer & Abyss was some great stuff.
- Havok vs Velvet Sky was meh, wasn't really into it. However, there were some great moments when the camera was showing Havok's and Velvet's nice tits and ass.
- James Storm & Great Sanada vs Tajiri & Muta was decent. Not happy with how it ended, it's a shame Storm and Sanada lost. It's a fucking travesty that the two 180 year olds won.
Anyways, looking forward to the next Impact episode. It's bound to be good!

It wasn't that bad, considering their financial problems... Plus, taking your biggest, well I should say one of the biggest PPVs outside of the US is pretty damn good, if ya ask me.
TNA's been on the brink of an extinction, and yet they've been kicking WWE's ass for the vast majority of 2K14. Their product has been way better than WWE's for months now.
I'm positive that things for TNA are gonna turn out just fine.
What?
I can give you the product argument since that is a matter of taste. But how has TNA been kicking WWE's ass? In the ratings? in attendance? In making money?
Nope, product-wise... There's no redundant, overbooked stuff on TNA... While there's that on WWE's TV, which is understandable, since they've got to put out a 3 hour show.
I'm just liking TNA's product better than WWE's right now, that's all. Not hating on WWE or anything, I still love it.
Except those New York tapings filled with pointless pandering to the long dead corpse of ECW.
"We're so hip and cool, watch us pander to something that died in a bingo hall".
TNA seems to be doing the same stuff they do every year. One or more heel units pop up and aim to take over (MVP's group and Storm's unit). The X-division living in constant murkiness and the Knockouts showing glimmers of goodness before being cast aside.
In 2014 WWE has given you:
The Shield vs the Wyatts
Daniel Bryan becoming a made man
The end of the Streak
Shield vs Evolution
The end of the Shield
The rise of the three pillars for WWE to come (Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose)
The rise to prominence of the Wyatt Family
NXT arrival, Takeover 1 and Takeover 2
Brock Lesnar holding a major wrestling title in 2014
What has TNA done in 2014 that is memorable?
I might come off as a TNA hater, but I am seriously curious. What have they produced this year that is outside of the norm for them.
TNA was fantastic in 2012, but that time is long gone.
You have a valid point there. It's been a good year for WWE, well the first 6 months. Ambrose/Rollins feud is the only good thing going on in WWE right now, I mean on the flagship show.
- While WWE has given us all of those things you mentioned, yeah, they were real good. But, what did they do with Bryan? His run for the title was damn good, and then when he finally got it, they didn't know what to do with him. So, they were like 'Hey, let's give him the shittiest opponent to defend WWE-WHC against, Kane.'
- On Brock Lesnar holding the major title, yeah I thought that one was actually gonna be good, since I've liked him maiming Cena at SummerSlam. But he's taken time off for the rest of the year now? That sucks. He's the face of the company. But okay, whatever...
In 2014, TNA has given us this so far (not in particular order):
Jeff Hardy turning into Willow
MVP being The Investor in TNA and then turning heel
Lockdown PPV, Team Roode vs Team MVP
A damn good Sacrifice PPV, the build up to it was great
Gunner/Storm feud
Mr. Anderson/Shaw feud
Bully Ray turning face
Dixie Carter getting put through a table by Bully Ray
TNA Tag Team match series, The Wolves vs Team 3D vs The Hardys
Lashley being utilized well and shown as the most dominant TNA WHC in history
Series of great X Division title matches, including Austin Aries, Manik, Sanada, Homicide, Samoa Joe, Low Ki
The current Storm's 'Revolution' storyline
