Impact Wrestling Live Discussion Thread 7/12 - Destination X Aftermath

[Dale]

- Plus, Joseph Park goes to war with Bully Ray! This match will open the broadcast!

- Witness the aftermath of the "Destination X" Pay-Per-View event! NEW World Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries will be there! What will he have to say about his big win on Sunday night? How will former champion Bobby Roode react? Don't miss it!


- Plus, the broadcast will feature the NEW X Division Champion, Zema Ion! Ion survived the X Division tournament and Ultimate X Match on Sunday night to claim the championship!


- In a huge Bound For Glory Series match on Thursday's SpikeTV broadcast, Kurt Angle battles Mr. Anderson! Which superstar will pick up points in the ongoing competition for a shot at the World Title?


- JUST ADDED: Bound For Glory Series points leader Samoa Joe will take on Rob Van Dam in another BFG Series match


- The Knockouts Title will be on the line on Thursday as Miss Tessmacher defends the gold against former champion, Gail Kim

Hopefully after Miss T beats Gail, Mickie comes out and kills the bitch and actually pushes on this fully fledged heel turn.

TNA are probably hoping to a decent rating for this show, maybe around 1.2 / 1.3 given the positive buzz surrounding Destination X.

I'm planning of watching this tonight so i guess i should watch the PPV before tonight then. Also i wonder who Failed Goldberg i mean crimson is gonna job to tonight.

Bound For Glory Series points leader Samoa Joe

 

[Chris]

I'll be watching, gotta' catch a stream because of the Direct TV/Viacom bullshit though.

 

[Keith]

Will be interesting to see what they do with Aries in his first appearance as champion I remember on Joe's first impact after winning the title they just gave him a few minutes in a interview and it was very forgettable.

Angle/Anderson doesn't grab me. RVD/Joe might be a bit more interesting.

They need to push this more and annonce some big matches rather than just saying it is the first Impact since this guy won that belt.

Might catch up with it later in the week.

 

[Big Red Jericho Punk]

Anything with Mr.Anderson is fast forward for me even if Angle is involved.

I'm still not convinced that Joe is getting a full push although if they make him beat RVD clean, then I'm positive that Joe is back to being in "Joe is gonna kill you" mode. I'm still really happy that he's in first but he's got to beat big belly RVD. I've always been a RVD fan but he's so past his prime that its sad to watch him sometimes.

I'm excited to see Aires get his celebration although it will probably be interrupted by Hogan in a few minutes sadly. Not everything can go according to plan, but still as long as Bitchoff is off TV then I can tolerate.

Hopefully Crimson jobs to Kenny King, that would be pretty enjoyable.

TIME FOR SOME TOTAL NON-STOP ARIES!!!!

wait i thought Abyss was not allowed in the arena.

Bully trollin the fuck out of Joseph.

Bully tweeting during a match, this shit is getting out of hand.

Abyss i mean Joseph with some awful ground and pound. No wonder direct tv cut spike

thumbtacks on free TV, well i should not be surprised thumbtacks don't mean shit anymore in tna.

how do you have a wrestler do a thumbtack spot in the opening match on TV.

he does the black whole slam exactly like Abyss :hm:

Stings version of Jim Carey is back

I really don't know how they're gonna pull off a legitimate, believable end to Bully/Parks.

Where's my weekly dose of A Double?

I think bully finally figured it out.

I was hoping for him to open the show.

Screw it, here's Joe.

 

[TKK]

Van Dam goes over? :santino: Oh well, they must be trying to keep the competition really even.

 

[TKK]

When Kaz said, "This is just the beginning", I facepalmed.

 

[MaNonTheMoon]

Wait....so AJ IS the father!? :sting:

 

[Big Red Jericho Punk]

I haven't seen Impact and won't see it to later but RVD going over? Well thanks for letting me enjoy seeing Joe in first. I rather see Hardy or Magnus over Joe not the out of shape hag RVD. Very disappointed already, I really thought they were behind giving Joe a full push.

 

[TKK]

Ion's little catchphrase is pretty good. I would enjoy his reign so much more if it wasn't completely based on Jesse Sorenson. I feel Jesse but, Zema run with the ball on his own for a bit. At least until Jesse's back wrestling.
