6.0/10 for me, there wasn't really that stand out moment from the rest.

 

[CM Punk]

4.5/10

6/10 here, too. Don't want to go below that. It had a few highlights, and a couple of decent matches, but nothing spectacular. Having Claire gone was great, just hated those recaps.

 

[Aids Johnson]

4.5/10

Opinion denied, as always. Keep being shitty and you will be the only member to make ignore listing. 4.5 is reserved for the smackdown with SGT slaughter as the main pull. Even Kellykelly return got a 5/10 avg.

 

[CM Punk]

I was willing to go 5, but no. I could care less about what you think. The only Highlight for me was the opener and last 30 minutes. F'ck Eric Young, Claire Recaps, ect.

8/10 starting from commercial break back into the main event match to the end of the show.

Enjoyed the match spots and the last segment with Aces and Eights the most.

You know how to do a good wrestling show? You drop all the bad storylines and pack the show with meaningful quality in-ring action. Aces and Eights were de-emphasized other than what was necessary, save for those dumb recaps of Claire that storyline's gone and the show is MUCH better for it.

James Storm is awesome. The finish to his match was fantastic, although there's a new worst wrestler in this company... BVD is a lazy sack of shit, he couldn't be arsed to run to do a suicide dive. Man, that guy has really regressed, but Storm never ceases to be entertaining. Eric Young's back? Fuck! But Madison Rayne was buried and looked like a total jackass so thumbs up from me! Styles and Joe was... Styles and Joe, man those guys are good. 2 of the 5 best wrestlers today putting on a great combination of psychology and athleticism you don't see anywhere but TNA. Even Hogan's segments backstage with the WTTCOTW and Joseph Park were entertaining as hell. The Pillsbury Doughboy got told "Hell No, GTFO" and Joey Ryan started being entertaining again messing with the judges. Jeff Hardy and Kurt Angle had the match you'd expect from those two, Hardy's typical spots and an Angle finisherfest, but it was painless. They cleared up everything with the Bound for Glory Series wonderfully, and left an awesome cliffhanger for next week.

The BFG Series is so damn good this year, it's really separated the Pritchard TNA from Russo's crap last year. It seemed obvious at the beginning, but the way they threw the wrench in the gears with Aries winning the belt at D-X... Well, Rock and Punk is looking incredibly predictable right now, so if WWE doesn't fix that, it'll definitely solidify that TNA is LIGHTYEARS better than WWE right now.

Agreed with Asskicker: 8/10, I loved this episode.
Screw it. 8.7/10. Joey Ryan ftw.

 

[CM Punk]

I don't know, I enjoyed Aj Vs. Joe and Angle Vs. Hardy was alright.
James Storms match was a bit sloppy and I didn't really care for it. The rest was kinda trash.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

6/10

 

[Aids Johnson]

^did you even finish it? I give it 6.5/10. 1:

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I watched everything besides the first 3/4 of Angle/Hardy

 

[Aids Johnson]

I think 6 is fair, just wondering if i was the only one watching still. 4.5? BS.
