I don't watch the show regularly but I was able to catch it on Thursday. Here are a list of things I noticed...
- AJ Styles is one of the village idiots. Tomko is a big, tattooed mofo. Who do you really want in your corner? God I hope AJ Styles keeps the hell away from both groups and just does wacky comedy with Tomko.
Not only that but Tomko is so damn awesome now. Remember when he debuted in the WWE and tripped after a spin kick or some such nonsense? Oh how things change.
- I'm gonna miss Senshi. All the other X-Division guys are flippy guys and do all kinds of wackiness from the top rope. Senshi goes in there, kicks ass, and finishes you off by crushing your ribs by jumping on you. I'm gonna miss TNA's personal version of Gordon Liu.
- I have turned the corner on Jimmy Rave. I always found him boring. Maybe I'm just tired of most of the X and Tag divisions but he's different enough from the rest to the point where I'd rather watch him than Sonjay Dutt or Petey Williams. Unfortunately, he's stuck with Lance Hoyt who I swear was drunk or high during the gauntlet match.
- Crystal is a woman after my own heart. Maybe it's me but during her interview segments she gives off this vibe of "Wow, this is kind of stupid". Usually during a Kurt Angle interview. Anyway, this changed when James Storm described the DCS and like me she was totally stoked.
- What is it that makes Joe a babyface? Nothing he does makes me want to cheer him at all.
And that's about it. Reply, don't, I just wanted to get this stuff out and couldn't in my own blog/journal/thingie.

Personally, I think Joe fits the whole "Franchise" type of pissed off babyface who got fed up with the system, to quote Raven.

He's good, he knows it, and is going to be kicking ass until he gets what he deserves. It's the most natural heel turn in the biz, in my opinion. Because there ain't no party like an S Club party? Seriously, I had a super duper crush on Hannah for a long time. She is so ridiculously cute, it's not funny. Not in a garish 'sexy' way, but just a 'fun to be around way'. I approve of the S Club sig. |

If he is going to go heel then yes, this is fine. But the whole "I hate the system" babyface is boring to me. |

My Random TNA Thoughts:
-I'm loving the TNA Knockouts division, especially Velvet Sky
-Lethal is pulling off the Black Machismo gimmick to perfection
-The MCMG are friggin awesome and are over like a mofo in the iMPACT Zone. Surprisingly, TNA is pushing them too.
-Crystal is a great backstage interviewer, her facial reactions are great.
-Robert Roode, Booker T, Eric Young, and Chris Harris bore me to death. If they never had another match in TNA I wouldn't care.
-When the f*** is Samoa Joe gonna win the world title?

Random TNA Thought
What's the deal with the briefcase shots, are they like the MITB title shot and nobody thought it pertinent to tell us? Also, why were the briefcase holders wrestling in the gauntlets for ANOTHER shot?

It was gauntlets to determine the rankings for 2008. |

It was gauntlets to determine the rankings for 2008. So then, the rankings would indicate who is next in line for a shot, yes? Also, why didn't they tell us this was how the breifcase shots would work? Seriously I'm fine with them doing that but to not explain it is just stupid. |

A> AFAIK, in 'real' combat sports, rankings are just that - rankings. The #1 contender isn't the only one who gets title matches, but he's the most likely too. However, in wrestling, they also give out "title shot coupons", for lack of a better phrase. And I thought that they did indeed explain that the briefcases contained title shots at the time they were doled out. But I am kinda green, so I can't say for sure. |

All I'm hoping for is that it's something they think worthwhile enough to keep serious enough track of, and either discuss on the show or at least post on the website. Make it like the Power 25 for the WWE. It's something else that the wrestlers can argue about. Wrestler X in a feud with Wrestler Y can run in on his matches in an effort to keep X from climbing the ladder too fast or some such. You get the idea. Of course, many have told me not to get my hopes up about it because it will probably get convoluted and/or just get forgotten, but for now I'm keen on it. |

The girl who sits in the audience and holds up the signs that fought with Traci a few weeks ago before the writers basically forgot about her. In case you want to look her up, she is known as Rain outside of TNA. She wrestles for Shimmer among other places. This is her again:  |
