Before the Bell. 30 mins long, but definitley got me pumped to watch the show. Worth a watch if you have time to kill.

Nothing else announced other than Aries vs Roode for the title and the BFG Series matches. It says there is 12 tortured souls in 3 Hardcore matches, so does that mean we're getting a bunch of multiman matches or, 3 hardcore and 3 normal matches?

Edited the title, since it's 2012 not 2011

They should have booked at least a couple of matches by now TNA do not want to fall into the WWE trap.

A lot of activity in this thread.

A lot of spam in your post count

PPV will probably at least be decent, but I can't really give any thoughts on it because only one match has been announced. Roode/Aries will be great of course, those two have such great chemistry. BFG Series matches should be entertaining, Bully will probably shine if it's a hardcore match. Wish he was closer to the top of the leader board with Joe and Storm.

 

[Keith]

Aries/Roode is worth one more ppv match but then it is time to move on to different things, in Roode's case Storm.

This thread needs updating.

I checked the Wikipedia page and it currently says the following;

Roode vs. Aries - TNA World Heavyweight Championship
AJ Styles vs. Daniels vs. Samoa Joe vs. Kurt Angle
James Storm vs. Bully Ray vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Robbie E
Dinero vs. Magnus vs. Anderson vs. RVD
Chavo & Hernandez vs. Kid Kash & Gunner
Robbie T vs. Garrett Bischoff

Joe is in the same match with Styles and Daniels. Hopefully he takes Clare Lynch on top of the ladder and muscle busters her to the unemployment line where she belongs.

Since when does a wikipedia page annonce details of a fourth coming wrestling card? The point of that site is excisting things or history.

Anyway if the card is correct it is odd that they have booked three four ways.

Wiki is a terrible place for info on PPV cards, but I updated this to feature the new matches confirmed by TNA on their website.

I don't really care much for the BFG Series matches at all, but I do like how they got everyone involved, and maybe we'll get a a couple nice matches, though the ladder match is the only one that excites me even a little. Chavo/Super Mex vs Gunner/Kash is meh, just a way to get Chavo over in his first PPV match with the company. Madison is probably going to win the KOs title after Earl executes the Orlando Screwjob. King/Zema should be fun, not sure if they'll put King over him since Zema just won the belt, seems pointless when they could have just had King win it at Destination X.

This card is looking outstanding. How much are TNA PPV's in America? Does anyone know? Might have to check this one out, or stream it.

Never bought one haha, probably $40 or something like that, maybe more. I don't know.

I'm not a fan of the ladder match with Angle in it, cause knowing him he will try and kill himself to put on a great match so i would of swapped him for RVD and put Angle in the falls count anywhere match, now that i think about it i don't like Joe in that match either so i would swap him for Jeff. Other then those 3 gimmick matches the others look solid and i'm interested in watching them

 

[Keith]

Thoughts on the added matches:

Ladder Match - Could be match of the night if given long enough

Tables match - should be solid but it is a bit of mismatch talent wise

Falls Count Anywhere - Don't care about this

Knockouts match - Boring. Why does Rayne still have a job when Love and Sky don't?

Chavo Tag Bout - It is a waste sticking him in a midcard tag bout on his first ppv.

X Title - This feels a lesser match now since they met the other week on Impact. Also as much as I love King this is another example of TNA rushing someone the fans hardly know into the title picture.

Overall its a good looking card but I would say its a step down from recent months. I like that they have added stipulations to the BFGS bouts as it makes them stand out more and also putting 20 points up in each makes then more important as they should be now getting closer to BFG.

I laughed pretty hard when I saw Storm, Hardy, Bully Ray, then Robbie E out of all people. Pretty strange to see Robbie E in that match and you know he's so going to lose that match. I'd have Joe, Storm, and Magnus win their respective matches but knowing TNA it will be Anderson to win that one. I'm really excited for the matches although falls count anywhere could be a botchfest with RVD, Anderson, and Pope all in the same ring. It sounds like a huge cluster, but other than that I'm liking the matches.
