Sorry kiddos but the bad far outweighs the good for me. Two really good TV matches but that was about it. Boring matches with ODB/Gail, Roode/Mexifag, and JP/Bradley. the MEM storyline and segments were as cringeworthy as ever. Took Taz away from commentary, so instead of being a constant terror there he got multiple segments dedicated to him being a shithead. A night's worth of build for August 1 and it is Tito Orfucking Tiz.

Sugar coat it all you want, shit is lame. 4/10

Shame, I thought Gail vs. ODB was good, as was Roode vs. Hernandez (carry job by Roode obviously). Tbh, the only minuses for me in this episode are Tito Ortiz, fucking terrible JB on commentary with his "no question about it" and "obviously" lame ass shit, and a wierd finish to AJ/Aries. Other than that, I loved this episode.

I'll admit I paid very little attention to ODB/Gail, so I'll take your and Rain's word on it if it delivered. Still though, it doesn't interest me to see ODB do much of anything. Roode/Hernandez was just weird. I'm so tired of the broken beer bottle spot. It's overplayed and just nonsensical. And yea, the finish to AJ & Aries was vintage TNA. They try to be creative with so many different types of finishes and it rarely comes off right.

edit: test, you enjoy all of the lame ass Sting/MEM segments? Just wondering

I like MEM because I like each of them individually, and hate me for it, but I even love seeing Rampage in it. He kinda fits in, being the tough guy, wanting to KO the stupid Wes Brisco and all. So yeah, I like MEM and Kerrang's sunglasses.

How they got together though? That's just embarrassing.

I can respect that. I just find Sting and Angle in their current states to be unbearable character wise, which kills the segments since they do 90% of the talking. Magnus, Joe and to a lesser degree Rampage don't bother me too much.

I'm a TNA fan and i was really dissapointed all the hype they created about someone new coming in and it was someone random mma dude who no pro wrestling fan gives two shits about cheers dixie carter, also MEM suck worse then Aces and Eights ffs at least bully can pull of being an ass hole well and so can mr a and taz.
As for chris sabin he is a big dissapointment i really dont think the guy whos writing there storylines knows how to finish one the Aces and eights thing if it was meant to be so epic shouldn't of lost the title till BFG and they could of had a match where if bully wins that person gets the sack and if the other guy wins aces and eights must disband.
but overall tito ortiz can actually fuck off and so can rampage jackson neither of them can wrestle and there not even top mma guys anymore so what are they? ornaments what a complete waste of money why not re sign matt hardy and get the hardy boyz back together or make them feud with each other that might actually draw people to the show and encourage ratings.
5/10

I'm actually not even that big of a Punk fan. He's like #8 on my list. And why did you post that video? What are you trying to say/prove?

I like them both, but signing Matt Hardy in TNA would be a waste of money.

i dont think it would it terms of merchandise and draw i honestly think it would be an improvement compared to signing shitty washed mma fighters at least matt hardy is a wrestler plus they could sell hardy boyz merchandise wich is guarenteed to make them money.

You realize Matt Hardy was in TNA like 3 years ago and nobody gave a fuck, right?

he was in it for like two or three months and had to leave for some reason you cant tell me the hardy boyz dont have drawing power they are one of the most famous tag teams ever and posibly the only real life brothers to be holding heavywight titles in the biggest promotion at the same time, at the end of the day its my opinion im not gonna change it because two people on the internet didnt like it.
are you honestly saying you prefer what the real life people who run tna are doing with the company atm?
