Hey, isn't this the second time Rhino ended up missing a PPV? I think he missed a tag match at Slammi this year. No, he was at Slammi this year.

Senshi replaced Chris Harris. Harris was removed to be in the main event because of Jarrett's wife. Oh. I knew it was something that involved Rhino, though.

Wait...
So "Hey Yo" was taken out by bad "Egg Yoak"
Yes. It sounds close enough for me.

I don't know why they keep giving him second chances when he no-shows everything.

Far as Rhino goes, if it's a neck thing or a personal issue. With Hall...dude, already? Even Waltman thinks you should've made it to one PPV, and that says something.
I guess the big dialogue now is the worked shoot angle, and where it leads? This SCREAMS Russo, and to those who ask, "why does it always have to be his fault" the answer is a simple one. THe last time an angle exactly like this was done, with young guys rising up to "take their spot" and declare that they've had all they can stands and they can't stands no omre, Russo did it. If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and smells like a duck, than chances are, it's gonna book something on a f***ing pole, it's just that simple.

Hey, at least everyones talking about this instead of the FEAST OR FIRED~! Match, which really, it wasnt bad. Kinda a cop out with giving results on Impact though. It'd be MUCH better to have someone grab the wrong briefcase and mix up whatever storyline they have planned.

I didn't expect Hall to screw up this soon. I would've given him at least until Final Resolution '08, but oh well. I could tell that the Main Event suffered because of it. It just didn't flow right, especially at the end. And Eric Young? That one really shocked me lol.

It'd be MUCH better to have someone grab the wrong briefcase and mix up whatever storyline they have planned. 10 to 1 nobody could remember what was in which so they just said "f*** it" put empty briefcases in the ring so that they could reveal it on free TV in a controlled environment with no silly mixups.

It'd be MUCH better to have someone grab the wrong briefcase and mix up whatever storyline they have planned. 10 to 1 nobody could remember what was in which so they just said "smurf it" put empty briefcases in the ring so that they could reveal it on free TV in a controlled environment with no silly mixups. they could have done that anyway, all they need is for cornette to come out and they each hand him there cases and he takes out the "contract" and reads it, you never get to see what the contract actually says anyway, so it doesn't matter whether they got the right ones or not, they don't even need to have right ones, they can all be the same as long as Cornette knows which one each person is supposed to get.

I'm just hoping that they start an X-Division vs old guys angle and actually let the X-Division win. This could be the perfect opportunity to change TNA for the better and really differentiate between them and WWE. But I'm a TNA optimist so I'll probably be wrong.
Also they could have been doing the stuff throughout the show and waited until the end to announce the change because they might of thought hall would make it in time for the main event, especially since he only lives a half hour away.

He probably went drinking and fell asleep. It's Scott Hall. Except he's been sober for like 10 months People do fall off wagons.

I don't get what the x-division really offers that guys like Tomko, Christian, or James Storm do.

Nash looked so upset.
Well, that's all I got to add.

Just a thought about Eric Young: doesn't his character still have a touch of paranoia about losing his job? Maybe he saw it as his chance to get the attention of the highers-up and keep his spot for good.

Just saw Joe's Promo.
I think they just made a work out of Hall being flaky with the food poisoning thing. Doubt that was a shoot.

I swear with people bringing up Benoit sometimes it actually seems like people want something bad to happen just so they can bust out a new sig and say I hate this year!

In my opinion the New Blood vs Millionaires club was a good concept. But WCW was such as mess at the time that it eventually went to crap. If TNA did an TNA Original vs Ex-WWE angle, it could work if everyone was on the same page.

I wouldn't say the angle sucked, if Hall couldn't perform then having that cover it up is a good way of doing it. That some people have called it to get the gooker, despite not knowing whether or not is was a planned angle or a quickly made up patch job to cover Hall's absence, shows how judgemental some people are.

I'm a little pissed myself as I bought the PPV last night in the hopes I'd get to see Hall wrestle.

I am slowly getting into tna. And I was watching again for hall because when i was little I watched him wrestle in the wwe. So I was a fan. He got me into watching the ppv last night. And wham.
