Don't know about you chaps, but I thought they really under-sold the A&8s entrance on Impact. Tension was building all night, the '3 and a half minutes thing' gave us a countdown to chaos, the entire roster was in the ring looking for a fight and then 15 blokes in masks just filed politely and quietly into the 'iMPACT zone'.
Complete damp squib.

If they did, great, but the real goal was to get enough of the roster distracted that the core group could get Aries.

And what, have Steiner sue for gimmick infringement? I was there for that match, as soon as I saw the pogo stick in the trash can, I remarked to my friend my heartfelt wish to have Steiner hop on it. I was very happy.

Since Gangland airs on the same network, is this supposed to be cross promotion?

Here's a still of the guy from the end of Impact. My wife is guessing it's Petey Williams.

As I posted on the Impact thread, I wonder if he legitimately forgot to cover his face or if this is just part of TNA's plan to generate more interest and conversation about Aces and 8s and who they actually are.

I go with part of the plan, and also to add the element that anyone can be a part of Aces and 8s.

Honestly I wouldn't mind that too much but I think it will be Bischoff without a doubt.

Does anyone find it weird the last two weeks that the core group have been running from Bully Ray, even when they're outnumbering him??

Point 1 from this week: two of the chief "big guy" suspects, Samoa Joe and Bully Ray, were both out and fighting the Aces and 8's. Still, given how they mix and match people, it could be misdirection. Of note is that this is, I believe, Joe's first direct interaction with A&8's.
Point 2: Yeah, the core group still hasn't gone that hard after Bully Ray. Ray working with the faces does make this suspicious, since he's the last guy one would assume would be cooperative with them.

By the way, I think that I've figured out who the big head honcho is, and if this theory's been proposed, well...sorry. The whole thing is themed around biker gang style stuff, and who's the one douchebag that ran a national wrestling company at a loss for a month in order to go to a biker rally in Sturgis? Yep, I'm casting my vote for Eric Bischoff.

While this theory won't work for Joe, I think Bully portraying the A and 8 guy, could be because he is an agent.

I thought Joseph Park's interaction with Hogan and Sting was a bit suspicious as well. Maybe it was just a pointless segment to get Park some screen time, but who knows.
