Not a bad show I thought. Nothing spectacular but solid and I cannot wait for the next few. Dixie using Snitsky and Zeke as the true spirit of ECW is a nice touch, though it is kinda sad that A-Rod pays less than TNA. Guess keeping Torrie Wilson looking forever 35 isn't cheap. The Sanada turn was well done though I do hope they anti-Bieber him by next week. Aries as the never say die, wholesome babyface is completely wrong. Rather him be the cocky asshole that'd do whatever it takes, legal or not, to get the title from Lashley. Shaw and Gunner work surprisingly well together but Anderson is still diarrhea in the pool. Yeah, not as good as last week's show, but decent, definitely looking forward to next week's show. Yeah, I think part of it was the crowd was simply dead after 4+hours of wrestling. I remember Mike Johnson from PWInsider talking about how the first night was torture because of the length, by hour 3 (the start of tonight's hour 1) the crowd was already burned out and leaving, by hour 4 half the building was gone. You could really tell in the main event tonight as they couldn't get anything out of the crowd and that stuff with Snitsky and Zeke was well done and really should have gotten something despite it being those two. Low Ki's scuba suit needs another mention. That thing was hilarious. That thing was hideous. I guess he really thought he was done and stopped working out, cannot figure why he'd be in a Rey Rey fat suit otherwise.

This weeks show was kind of weak I thought. Nothing super terrible, but pretty weak overall. Screw the show. The Thread was glorious. Go Us. That's what I love about the Impact thread. Magnus and Bram vs. Gunner and Anderson. Meh. The thread treating Gunner vs. Bram as mirror images of each other, not being able to tell who's who. Comedy gold.

Low Ki's scuba suit needs another mention. That thing was hilarious. It's so Anti his character that the brain cannot process it. He keeps doing his "wild man" pauses but he's dressed like a 12 years old super-hero enthusiast.

Mike Tenay keeps impressing me with his announcing. Each week, I can't possible think he can get any worst, but the next week, he tops himself in terms of SUCK. Between his jocking of Kurt Angle and anything anti-MVP faction, no matter how stupid and dumb he sounds, he somehow finds a way not to make Taz the worst announcer in wrestling. At this point I would rather hearDixie on commentary for 2 hours than Tenay. Good job TNA getting rod of Todd Keneley and his announcing with JB, in favor of Taz and Tenay.

How did they taped the shows? I thought it was three nights of 2 hours back-to-back but not 4 hours in one taping. Just sayin' cause this crowd felt completely different from last show, it was a much better last night than on the last Impact. Although yea on the last match they didn't react much. But I putted this on the shitty booking.

Watch TNA start to get good ratings right before they get cancelled.

Yet the crowd seemed more energetic when Roode showed up than the whole first show.
