Card to be updated as more matches are announced. Which do you guys expect and want to see?

 

[Crippler]

Hardy/Aries II

Team Aces & 8's vs. Team TNA 6 man or 8 man Team TNA will prob have Bully, Sting, Anderson and maybe Angle or AJ

X divison RVD/Zema but i'm hoping it's someone else maybe Daniels.

Tara/ODB/Young ass, this is based off Young ASS getting her rematch and ODB pinned Tara on impact

Tag Titles might be Team Mexican's vs. Kaz/Daniels or the Tattoo jobbers (Gunner and Kash) or Morgan and Ryan

based off the promo on Impact i can see another Roode/Storm match but i don't want that to happen cause of the perfect ending that happen at BFG. So maybe, i can't think of other people who are on these two level in terms of believable and place of the card. FUCK TNA's talent is low.

That poster is so terrible. If it wasn't already painfully obvious they're ripping off Sons of Anarchy, they clearly have to rip off SOA with that poster.


Ugh... TNA.

:XZ:
YO DAWG, I BUILT YOU A SONS OF ANARCHY RIP-OFF IN YOUR SONS OF ANARCHY RIP-OFF... SO NOW YOU CAN RIP-OFF SONS OF ANARCHY WHILE RIPPING OFF SONS OF ANARCHY!

 

[Keith]

And when you have to rip of SOA for a poster you know your in the shitter!

 

[Chris]

It was obvious they were ripping off SOA months ago, I like the poster.

 

[BretScrewedBret]

I know man. It's been obvious from the start. I don't mean to piss on anyone else's enjoyment and I'm sorry if it seemed that way. It's really hard for me to find positive things to say about the company. I can praise a lot of the talent there. I *really* tried to enjoy Bound for Glory. First 3 matches were really crucial... Storm vs Roode just melted my brain with how good it was. Then they just deflated that balloon by putting that Gutcheck loser out there with Al Snow. Seriously Al Snow in a 10 minute match in 2012? *ssnnooore*


I know a lot of folks dig it, and I'm willing to have my ideas about TNA challenged if you disagree. I'm always up to discuss stuff, but that's basically where I stand with the company right now.

 

[Chris]

I basically agree with you about BFG, that's how I saw it as well for the most part. I don't really know any of your other opinions on TNA other than you hate Aries, so not much other than that to disagree with.

 

[BretScrewedBret]

I do have a completely unreasonable hatred of Aries. You got me there haha.

 

[Chris]

First match is announced: Hardy defends against Aries in a rematch from the PPV. Don't really see a swerve coming (but that's the best time for one, eh?), so I just expect Hardy to retain in a match that's just as good as the one they had at BFG.

Did you watch any ppvs from earier in the year. I would say overall its been a very good year on ppv for TNA as to be fair it has been for WWE. I do fear TNA are in danger of returning to their old ways hope this is not the case.

I did watch Destination X. The Aries title win was a good match, I can't say it wasn't. I'm not a fan of him though. Main event of BFG should have been Roode and Storm. Can't believe they reward Jeff's druggie behavior by putting him back on top and giving him that Divas title back.

Seriously, what self respecting "where wrestling matters" pro wrestling company has their world title looking like that? It's purple...

 

[rcoot93]

the belt does look horibble, cant bleive they wasted money on it cosidering how long the last one he designed lasted, probably means that hes going to be champ for a while which is a shame as they have a lot of guys who could do with a title run (bully, roode could do with it back as could Aries, joe etc)

 

[Keith]

Can't argue with the Jeff Hardy point it is a disgrace. There are far more deserving guys and Hardy needs to prove himself for longer than he has before being considered for the title.

 

[Chris]

Tag title match has been announced. Doubt it'll happen but I'm really cheering for Kaz & Daniels because they're probably my favorite tag team in all of wrestling, their heel run has hardly been talked about much, but it's been crazy good. I just can't make myself care about the Mexican team.

It should be decent. Thing is given Chavo's peak has past and Herendaz is very limted in singles this is the best thing for both.
