TNA Slammiversary XII PPV Discussion

[Leo C]

You know, Impact has been pretty bad recently but the PPV line-up is alright.

 

[Aids Johnson]

KK A double AND Assmacher? I'm there, team.

 

[Snowman1]

Also, who the hell is George Selvie?

 

[Aids Johnson]

Who the fuck is Crazzy Steve.

 

[CFCrusader]

Why the fuck did TNA not have Sabin available for the X-Division match?

 

[Rogue]

I'm hoping they let Joe get the strap, he deserves a decent run as World Champion.

 

[Snowman1]

TNA really needs to make some people happy with this show. That should be their biggest priority.
Lets end the show with some nice talking points and at least 1 big 'feel-good" moment.

Normally I'd be in the "give the belt to Austin Aries" camp, but Shadow's right. Samoa Joe winning the belt here could give us some feeling of the times changing in TNA. Lets go fat Samoan!

Any bets/prediction contests for this?

 

[CFCrusader]

A nice big swerve that doesn't involve a screwy finish would be nice; like Aries or Joe winning the title, a big return or hell, The Bro-Mans decide to destroy the entire TNA roster in honour of the fallen 3MB, who show up and the two groups merge to become the Bro Man Band.

Agree with everything you said.

Yes, Austin Aries and Samoa Joe do deserve the TNA title. But so do Gunner and Roode, imo.

 

[Aids Johnson]

Yeah i'll make a prediction, Kenny King for the Champ belt.

Sabin? Wasting my time on a PPV?

This PPV is solid, just as long as there is as little of Dixie, MVP, and Hardy on the mic as possible.

 

[Aids Johnson]

The real bet should be on who is the next HoF guy? All the bridges i've seen TNA rock moved back to WWE or are burned down something fierce.

Wont be AJ, Double J, Anyone in WWE's, or more than likely in RoH currently. I haven't been along for most of this ride, but who is even credible right now? I mean you have to assume it's a fossil or guy who plans to rock the Ali look in the next decade, right?

ETA: Maybe it'll be Chris Sabin -

Not having a screwy finish to a TNA ppv IS a big swerve. :dawg:

But I'd be in favor of BS finishes in the qualifiers. MVP and King can run out to screw over Samoa Joe, while they do the same thing in the Aries/King match but that time Roode jumps the railing and fights off the heels so his old buddy Aries can trumphantly make it into the ME (even though Joe should be winning still, lol) That can get the swerves out of their system so the ME finish can end clean.

Would love to say it would progress a whole bunch of angles while having a satisfying finish to the PPV but wrestling fans will still be too Blue to see that.

I don't get why you people dislike Chris Sabin. He was 1/2 of the Motor City Machine Guns, holds the record for most X-Division title wins, has held the WHC (even though it was for like 2 weeks) and is only like 31. I'd love to see him back at TNA, in the tag team division or in the X-Division. I know why you don't want for him to be in the HOF though, I'd rather have AJ Styles... but hey, they don't have many other guys in the roster who are real legends so I'm expecting Rampage Jackson to be in the HOF. :urm:

I agree. It lets them to do the swerves, and heck, Roode gets his own time out on the PPV to start exacting revenge on MVP and his cronies. But I doubt that will happen - we'll probably see EY vs Lashley vs King with Roode helping EY win.

I like Chris Sabin bro and think he's an awesome talent, but the dude left TNA a month ago, why on Earth would you expect him to come back so quickly? It's not happening, and get over it. He might return some day, just like AJ, Daniels and Kazarian, but for now he is gone and we should focus on other guys.

But anyway, lets all imagine if Mike Tenay gets inducted into the HoF.
