Between Summerslam 2010 (only flaw being Cena's tap out win, I like Cena but Jesus suspension of disbelief = gone for that one moment) and TNA's Whole Funky Show, I am now back in love with wrestling.
Beer Money vs Machine Guns as much as people seem to rag on Tenay, I don't think it's a stretch to say that maybe those matches are the greatest series of all time. That last match just blew me away, TV Match of the Year possibly. 10/10.
Abyss has surprised me, I dislike him really, but as a heel and particularly in that RVD Stairway to Board with Nails match he was perfect, taking bumps, playing things out slowly, superb. I will mention RVD here too, I like him but do think he has been lazier but he put his stock up with his effort in that match, his fall out of the ring scared me a bit, very worried he'd be hurt. 8/10.
Angle is keeping me interested, I know it's a foregone conclusion that he has to win all matches but the actual quality of it in ring and the rate of work ANgle is putting in is fantastic. I am glad really, I used to genuinely get upset in a childlike way about Angle being paralysed (last time I did that was in the Anderson ladder match when he fell, his fall from the ladder made me feel ill), but now...well I'm watching his matches and enjoying them.
Also, Fourtune coming out at the end of that show was perfect, I do not want old ECW guys there, in fact watching Hardcore Justice sort of dented my faith in TNA a lot as it was so God awful, thankfully TNA pulled one of the best TV shows of any company in a long damn time.
TNA I am usually critical about but try to mention great things, with that show I have faith and will watch again without being so negative (unless they shoot themselves in the foot again). The only thing that'd probably improve the show would be if they got rid of Dixie Carter, she's terrible.
