TNA Sacrifice - May 13th, 2012 Preview and Live Discussion

RVD is dead and we still have 10 minutes before 11:00. Why didn't Abyss come in and destroy Roode

 

[Sabretooth]

I won't win this one because of the LB bonus.

Good for you.

I heard Roode retained....

I hear he's also on his way to becoming the longest reigning champion in TNA history! The Leader Of The Selfish Generation is the best champion of all time.

There's an asterisk there though. He'll be the longest reigning TNA Champion, not NWA Champion, which is the belt they used to use. Jarrett has had a longer reign than Roode in that respect. It's still an awesome accomplishment though, and a fitting one for the BOSS. Going back and reviewing the TNA PPV's from the start has only served to make me appreciate just how great Roode really is.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Bobby Roode is the BOSS.

He needs to hold the strap as long as possible. It'll be a sad day when the "It Factor" of professional wrestling is no longer the man.

Luckily his reign has pretty much legitimized him as a permanent main eventer, so when he eventually drops the strap he'll still be able to do a lot. Still thinking Storm's going to be the guy to take it from him, especially with the recent Storm promos, but I doubt it'll be at Slammiversary.

I'm pretty sure it'll be Storm too. But I think it's going to be a long road. TNA needs to legitimize him as much as they have with Roode so when he takes it, he'll be the guy everyone looks to carry the company. I think Bound For Glory will be the perfect time if the booking is right on.

Bobby Roode is going to be a major player from now on, you've got that right. I think he's going to succeed where Styles has trouble, staying in the picture even when not the champion.

Not too shabby for a guy Hogan said "wasn't the guy brother". Then again, that could have all been a work, knowing Hogan it probably was.

You never know with Hogan.

But I've heard him bad mouth Roode as recently as a few months ago. He's just a jealous old man in my estimation.

Yeah, he's bitter...and a douche.

Anyhow, this PPV was way better than Lockdown and has restored my faith in TNA's ability to put on a solid product when they're given the chance. The only thing I had issue with was taking the belts off of Jagnus, because I don't really see the point. I hope they don't just forget about them now, because they had really been gelling as a team lately.

I can see Angle/AJ going for the belts against Kaz/Daniels, but I honestly don't think they needed the belts for the feud, especially considering how the end of Angle/AJ transpired tonight. Oh well.

Random thoughts on Sacrifice so far:

- Was I the only one groaning when Daniels said it isn't over with AJ BY A LONG SHOT?
- Still can't get over how in shape Devon has gotten. I know he's been that way for a while, but still.....
- Not gonna lie, I'd hate to see the Robbie's break up. GTW baby!
