I have to agree with erisi here. While I love Booker T, Roode has been in TNA for a long time, and I haven't really seen a god awful match by him. He's got skills but the way matches are booked it makes him look like he doesn't have any. He may have a generic gimmick, but it works quite well for him and I don't get why people trash him so much. Well because A. Once he forgets he has facial expressions he's just a TNA clone of Randy Orton (hell he's even claming he'll end the legend of Booker T more or less) B. His moveset and gimmick borrows from 3 of the most skilled and/or charismatic wrestlers of the 80s and early 90s while not having the charisma to be even close to ONE of them. So the man can wrestle, that's nice. I'd rather not see him in a gimmick where he's the Perfect Million Dollar Man Theodore Rude and claiming Sharmell is a skank while pausing every 2 words, and that he'll end Booker T's career/legend/mythos/whatever while pausing...every two...words. oh, and whipping a black man handcuffed to ropes. cause you know, that's a good idea. Such a good idea it produces 200,000 in ratings dropoffs. Quite simply I do not care for Robert Roode (or as Payton Tyson Banks put it "Wobert Woode". Wonder if she'll tell me I must defeat the nefawious doctor wiwy next?) That's propably the lamest explanation ever

My predictions for TNA's Destination X.
Kaz and Eric Young vs. Rellik and Black Reign Remember when Kaz was challenging for the world title? That was a nice couple of hours wasn't it? Winners: Young and Kaz
#1 Contender's Match: LAX (Homicide y Hernandez) w/Salinas vs. The Rock and Rave Infection (Rave and Hoyt) w/Hemme vs. The Motor City Machineguns (Sabin and Shelley) This has the potential to be a really hot match. My heart says MCMG but my brain wants to see LAX get another shot. Winners: Latin American Exchange
FISH MARKET STREET FIGHT~!: Team 3D (Ray and Devon) w/Devine vs. Shark Boy and Curry Man Winners: Team 3D
Stand by Your Man Strap Match: Booker T. w/Traci Brooks vs. Robert Roode w/Payton Banks I'm really torn. One one side I want to see Booker T win, but then I'd also like to see Ms. Brooks get spanked. sigh... Winner: Booker T
Elevation X Match: Rhino vs. James Storm w/Miss Jackie Moore Winner: Rhino
TNA X-Division Title Match: Black Machismo © vs. Petey Williams w/Rhaka Khan I'm excited that Williams is back in the X Division title picture. That said, Jay Lethal needs to get some wins under his belt before he "rey mysterio's" his title run. Winner: Jay Lethal
TNA Knockouts Title Match: Awesome Kong © w/Riesha Saeed vs. ODB vs. Gail Kim I don't want to see Kong loose any time soon. Winner: Awesome Kong
The Angle Alliance (Kurt Angle, AJ Styles and Tomko) vs. The Unlikely Alliance (Samoa Joe, Kevin Nash and Christian Cage) Winners: Angle Alliance

Damn! Nash looks old! (I dunno why, but it's fun ragging on Nash. )

Nash looks more and more like Oz everyday.
The gimmick must haunt him...

stupid question. Is there a webcast of this available like what WWE does or is it TV only?

My predictions...which may prove to show how little I know about what's going on after missing two weeks and only really catching the "Go Home" show...or whatever you call the last show before a PPV...
Kaz and Eric Young vs. Rellik and Black Reign Winners: Kaz & EY When EY unleashes his "inner-monster."
#1 Contender's Match: LAX (Homicide y Hernandez) w/Salinas vs. The Rock and Rave Infection (Rave and Hoyt) w/Hemme vs. The Motor City Machineguns (Sabin and Shelley) Winners: LAX, Because I want them to. MCMG seems the lock-in...but daggone it, I like LAX.
FISH MARKET STREET FIGHT: Team 3D (Ray and Devon) w/Devine vs. Shark Boy and Curry Man Winners: Team 3D makes weight and turns Shark Boy into bait. Hey look a rhyming pun...
Stand by Your Man Strap Match: Booker T. w/Traci Brooks vs. Robert Roode w/Payton Banks Winner: Robert Roode When Sharmell returns and turns on Booker. It just seems...likely.
Elevation X Match: Rhino vs. James Storm w/Miss Jackie Moore Winner: Rhino Storm is younger and can take the fall. Update: I still hate this match and it is still keeping me from buying the PPV.
TNA X-Division Title Match: Black Machismo vs. Petey Williams w/Rhaka Khan Winner: Petey Williams After Rhaka Khan helps him. I expect a Sonjay/So Cal Val thing to happen during the match too...
TNA Knockouts Title Match: Awesome Kong w/Riesha Saeed vs. ODB vs. Gail Kim Winner: Awesome Kong ODB and Gail fail to work together.
The Angle Alliance (Kurt Angle, AJ Styles and Tomko) vs. The Unlikely Alliance (Samoa Joe, Kevin Nash and Christian Cage) Winners: Joe/Nash/Cage when Joe pins AJ. Why AJ? Because that's just how it goes...

Well, this is great. I ordered the PPV, and the entire picture is breaking up and digitizing. This is BS.

I had some trouble ordering mine. My TV wouldn't process the order, so I have to watch it on another TV in my house. Hopefully customer service was accurate.

I always like seeing TNA outside of Orlando. Love the whole... aura? Is that the right word? Whatever.

On top of this, there's a cable outage north of here, according to the phone, so by the time I get in touch with someone, they're probably going to be annoyed already. Just what I need with my situation.

They are probably going to f*** Lethal over much like they did after he beat Angle clean by having him drop the title to Scott Steiner Lite.
