So, we have Samoa Joe playing the role of CM Punk, Daniel Bryan is EY of course, Magno is Orton, and Abyss is Corporate Kane? Who's the Shield in all of this? The Wolves. Ahhh, so that explains the blonde streak in Davey's hair.

Wow, I didn't even notice the parallels. Who's their Batista? Lashley? Yes after all both have tried acting and MMA, does that make EC3 their Maddox, Spud is the Hornswoggle in all of this,

Thrilled for EY.
Not thrilled that this smacks way too much of riding Bryan's coattails after WM.
Should've saved it for the PPV, I think. Hopefully they have a good follow-up in mind for this to justify pulling the trigger this way.

This feels so sudden. I mean, Eric Young winning the world title is a big deal they didn't built this match up to make the outcome feel like a big accomplishment. Things happened but not much emotion came out of it.

Vince Russo is definitely back, because they took what could have been a real feel good moment with some build-up and turned it into a hot shotted angle done in one night.
Good for EY, though. I would have preferred Joe getting the belt, but agreed this definitely reeks of trying to capitalize on the Daniel Bryan stuff.

Why would they hotshot an entire storyline and do it in one night? It doesn't pop a buyrate, the main event wasn't announced until during the show so it had no chance to pop the ratings and, while I like EY, he's no Daniel Bryan at capturing the fans love.

Now that I'm thinking about it, they're totally going to turn Joe heel now, aren't they?

Breezed through the DVR...
I made a post in another thread about giving their fans something different then their "competition".
I already watched this shit over the weekend....I didn't need to see it done worse tonight.

I HAVE THE WORST LUCK IN THE WORLD! About 5 minutes before the show started I got a phone call and had to handle an emergency. By the time I got home, it was almost midnight. I missed the entire show
Anyway, congratulations to Eric Young, the new TNA World Champion!
