So weird to see the Impact Zone in the pre-show video - hard to
believe the last Impact thing shot there will be Hardy's attack from the
Aces. Loved the recap of last week's show - made it seem more dramatic,
and made a bigger deal out of the Brooke-Bully deal. The crowd shot
this week showed a fan in a giant '89 Batman logo shirt. Hogan limped
down to ringside slowly to start the show. Hogan cut a promo mentioning
Jeff Hardy, THE WORLD CHAMP WHO ISN'T THERE, a billion times. Might as
well go with a "fuck you" on the last night before saying Bully's the
top contender now because he's "head and tails" above everyone. I'm not
quite sure what that means, but I like Taz bringing up Bully not even
being in the matches to determine a top contender. Loved Bully giving
Hogan a YOU along with the fans to get him into the match. Roode and
Aries met with Daniels and Kaz because they've got an 8-man tag.
Daniels, the ring general who earned his medals, ruled. They'll team up
to face the Mexicans, Storm, and Joseph Park. My word is Storm ever lost
in the shuffle.
A new Road to Lockdown ShopTNA ad
hyped up being able to hype up ACES AND 8S gear. That seems
counterproductive. Digging the tie-dye style shirts though - Sting's
would fit Brock's gear perfectly. Hemme didn't say "Aries" and Taz
called Bully the gimp of his team - that amused me. Taz was pissed about
Storm's fans blowing up his Twitter, and he hates them, himself, and
shocked they even own mobile devices. Heel Taz is great. Loved the
partners from the corners into each other was changed up with Joseph
accidentally elbowing guys, then Chavo congratulating him and Joseph
being scared because he thought he did something wrong. They hyped up
King Mo since he's fighting on Bellator tonight. Park's wrestling camp
training was put to good use with a double clothesline out of the
corner. Tag champs left Bad Influence on their own, and Aries mocked
Kaz's handsign. Loved Daniels taking like three bumps off a backstabber,
then getting Pounced by Hernandez and frog splashed by Chavo. Loved
Storm and Hernandez helping Park balance up on the second rope before he
won with a splash. Fun little deal here - especially when Chavo hopped
onto his back in celebration.
They showed Hogan and Bully's deal from earlier and a graphic for the main event - so weird to see Hogan in a match graphic.Rockstar
Spud put over British Bootcamp as life-changing since it got him a
contract and he's not recognized wherever he goes. And better yet, they
recapped "Bigger Rob" holding back Robbie E, who is facing Rockstar Spud
tonight. Taz threatened to stab Todd THROUGH THE HAND WITH A PENCIL if
he didn't shut up. Thanks to Bigger Rob distracting Big Rob, Spud won
this. Fine little match here. Robbie E and T had a spat that led to a
Dixie Owns Vince sign being on TV. E slapped T, who threw down The List,
Bro and threw his XXXXXl Cardigan before Robbie E got stuck in the
ropes in the funniest way possible. KO 4 way is up next.
They
replayed Velvet beating Tara 3 weeks ago, then they showed Gail winning
last week, and Tess winning two weeks ago to show why all were
contenders. Great - a nice, logical reason for this match to happen.
Brooke Hogan came out in a see through black dress - odd, but hot attire
for an exec. Taz saying that Hulk's trying to "keep in the family" made
me chuckle. Velvet making sure her ass pointed right at the camera when
she tried to grab Tara ruled. Velvet hit her finisher on Tara and Gail
stole the pin - ensuring a new KO champ here. I love it when that's
done. Oddly, they referenced Taryn being on Bellator LIVE later, which
not only exposed this as being taped, but WHAT THE HELL IS TARYN TERRELL
DOING ON BELLATOR!? Looking forward to a live Tiffany promo though.
Loved Gail arguing with Taryn and it costing Gail big-time since it led
to the In Yo Face and the title win for Velvet. She won with an ass-up
cover and the camera zoomed in on Brooke's cleavage. Quick recap of Bullfy 'dad' making their match.
AJ's
shitty 2012 was recapped, and they'll have an update on him next week.
Garett-Joe is happening next...after not being brought up at all before
this. Good recap vid though. Garett as a badass biker is an amusing
visual. The Smone Smission Mashin came out to kick some ass. Joe and
Garett had a fun match until Wes came out. Loved Joe doing Devon's last
rights bit before a big corner chop. Angle made the save. Loved him
making himself-Wes in a cage. Kenny King faces RVD for the X Title next
in an unhyped match.
Todd saying that King would
be perfect for the Aces amused me since they do love strippers. They did
moves, RVD look the worst Royal Flush ever. Five star won for RVD.
Brooke attempted to emote while talking to her dad, she failed. Hulk
also called Sting THE GREATEST WRESTLER WHO EVER LIVED! They recapped
Hardy's injury deal. They got Hardy's thoughts on Bully as his contender
- he promised POSSIBLY THE GREATEST CAGE MATCH EVER. Well, after he
promised to have one of the best Tokyo Dome matches ever, I wouldn't put
too much faith in that statement. Anderson's working in blue jeans and a
white T-shirt, and looks like a cheaper, skinnier version of the
Sandman. Sting came out, then Bully, and Hogan's entrance was teased,
but he was shockingly injured preventing it. Bully and Sting got the
better of the Aces despite being one man short...so the Aces are really
quite incompetent. They can't beat a one-legged man and a 50+ year old.
Loved Doc and Bully exchanging shots in the corner. I wouldn't mind a
one-on-one match for them after Bully wins the title. The Aces dragged
the Hogans out and made sure to zoom in on Brooke's ass. Doc pinned
Sting after a big boot to the face - it didn't quite make sense since
Anderson was in the scorpion, but since it led to a pin, I'm fine with
him waiting for a proper running boot. This was fun stuff and made the
Aces look like badasses again.
