- The TNA Knockouts will be in action as well.

All this and much more on Thursday's IMPACT WRESTLING broadcast LIVE at 8/7c on SpikeTV

The go home show for Destination X looks like its shaping up nicely. Can't wait to see the next four guys they bring in, and if rumours of a Chikara/TNA relationship are indeed true, some of us will be marking in our indy pants next week. Outside of that, Storm/Hardy could be pretty good if Hardy's motivated, Aries and Roode were great last week so I expect more of the same and hey, I never say no to KO's action. I do however say no to Brooke Hogan, which is why I hope to see very little of her next week.

More x division and I'm good. I'd think that James Storm vs Jeff Hardy would be a PPV match but whatever. And Bobby Roode vs Austin Aries on the mic. Sparks will fly. This is gonna be good

 

[Postman Dave]

If El Generico turns up in the X-Tournament, expect me to spend most of tomorrow marking like a kid.

Expecting someone else from the CHIKARA roster this week, either UMB or Fire Ant would be grand.

If El Generico shows up tonight I'll still be cleaning my pants tomorrow while you're marking like a kid. I definitely expect one if not two Chikara performers to show up tonight. I'm hoping for Green Ant (because he's one of my faves), UMB (because he rules) or Quack (just because it would be even more surreal than seeing Jigsaw in there last week).

 

[Sabretooth]

I'm sure if mike quackenbush shows up, you'll scream so loud you'll break a glass with your voice

I don't know if I can get it that high anymore, I'm not 12, but I would definitely scream loud. Unfortunately he won't be one of the guys unless he's going by a different name for the show. Here's the participants, thanks to Dixie's Twitter.....

Spoiler

New X-Division stars competing for a spot at Destination X tonight at 8 on Spike - Flip Casanova, Lars Only, Dakota Darsow and Kenny King

 

[Castiel]

Player Uno has revealed the two with name changes and I am very very very pleased with one.

Spoiler

Flip Casanova = Flip Kendrick (I'm guessing because they previously had Brian Kendrick..)
Lars Only = Johnny Yuma! (Too awesome.)

It sucks that Dakota Darsow is back again, he already failed last year and was the least impressive of the bunch.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Wow, that is awesome, and as for the other guy you mentioned, he's improved a lot since last year, so he could be pretty good tonight.

 

[Castiel]

Meh, we'll see. I just wish someone else would've gotten a shot.

Here we go!

You know he's always going to get chances because of who his dad is.

 

[Castiel]

Now following Bully Ray on Twit'ah.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Ray pulling out the legal tactics against the lawyer...priceless.

 

[Castiel]

A restraining order against a wrestler because he's trying to hurt you... on a wrestling show. So he's banned from the wrestling arena. This makes sense, sure.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Can't wait for Ray/Parks next week, going to be sooooo good.

 

[Starlight]

How much you want to bet Crimson adds another title to his list of growing titles? I can't see his streak ending.
