Alright here we go. Firstly, I love the visual of the NWA Title hanging over the ring all night, showing what everybody will be fighting for in the main event. I know there are other divisions, and not everybody is in the title scene, but I would have loved if young hopefuls' kind of glanced up at the title throughout the night, teasing their future ambitions or whatever. This isn't necessarily criticism or anything for not having it, just thought it would have been cool. One thing I enjoy with your shows is that your promos don't overstay their welcome. Sharp and to the point, it makes them a breeze to read. A couple of points on the promos, first one is nit picky, but Awesome said "pry this NWA Title" out of his hands, sounding as if he's in possession of the title, but I'm pretty sure it's above the ring. Like I said, nit picky and not important at all, but just something I noticed.
All the promos were fine for the hype for the big ladder match, which delivered. Plenty of spots, carnage, interference, teases, all really well done. I'm shocked Scott Hall won just because he really hasn't felt like a main character compared to some of the other guys in this match so far. I like the shock though, Hall deserved to be champion at some point (although probably not in 2002 lol). But yeah, this was good and has me really excited to see how the title picture develops from here.
One call out is I'm just not big on the swearing in promos here. I know that probably comes off hypocritical with some of the stuff I've written in the past, but this is TNA, not ECW. It just kind of throws me off each time it happens haha.
The X Division continues to be pretty epic. You're booking it really well so far. AJ/Red would have been a lot of fun, and the showcase match to. I'm glad Daniels won, as I can't help but feel he'll want another match with Shelton Benjamin soon.
Speaking of Shelton, Thug Pound stable is epic. I've complimented you repeatedly on your use of Shelton so far and that continues here. Really good. Also, Ki and Homicide better go over AMW again on Sept 18th.
The continued teases of a Monty Brown/Abyss confrontation continue to excite me.
I also thought the Mick Foley explanation was fine. Funk returning to save Foley from the numbers is fine. By god, the tag team of Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie are back together again. I assume we're heading towards Foley/Corino in an epic one on one encounter, but being that every show is a PPV and you need to sell that shit, we're likely to get some epic Foley/Funk tagging against Corino and co first. The journey to get there should be fun.
For some reason, Diamond and Swinger debuting here never really crossed my mind, but giving Doring some back up to deal with Roadkill works. An Amish working with some pimps could be some vignette gold, btw.
Awesome debut for The Briscoes. Right away they are on the radar in the EPIC tag division. Great booking.
And I don't have any idea where it will end up, but I am thoroughly enjoying the Lawler character work at the moment.
Arguably my favourite show of the BTB so far. You da man.
