Preliminary predictions...
TNA World Heavyweight Championship Sting def. Rhino
Honestly, why the f--- is Rhino in a World Title match. He's not winning. And we KNOW he's not winning. Why waste everyone's time? This is barely even an Impact main event... much less PPV...
Jeff Jarrett def. Kurt Angle
After about 4 bagillion run-ins and shenanigans, but... It was just a matter of time, Kurt. You knew you'd have to do this sooner or later the moment you signed on the dotted line. Lay down and like it.

I'm really looking forward to this, especially Jarrett vs. Angle, part2
Kurt really makes me hate him as a heel and mark for Jarrett. I hope, run-in or not, that Jarrett will beat him again. However, I'm afraid that some person who is face now will interfere and help Angle. This person will feud with Jarrett who will come back full-time.
Sting Vs. Rhino is really, really stupid. Rhino is just cannon fodder, even though they might make him look strong in his defeat. This is just stretching Sting's title reign an the whole MEM storyline until the Frontline finally has their saviour...and it better NOT be Jarrett! Jarrett is fine in non-title feuds, but if they make him top face champ this will culminate in epic X-Pac heat.
The X-Division needs a champion, a charismatic champion, someone with a gimmick, someone interesting. With other words: make Alex Shelley win in a cheating way and let him have Regal-esque title defenses against Eric Young by escaping defeat at the skin of his teeth. Shelley would be an awesome heel champ.
That Japanese Muta dude should not be champ yet. We just had the whole foreign heel stuff (although Bashir is US citizen? Canadian? Whatever!).

I understand that the main event that will sell the show is Jarrett vs Angle. But one thing about TNA that always made me scratch my head is why don't they ever put on a second strong main event? No offense to Rhino, but he lost his way into a World Title Match. Either AJ or Joe, whichever one is not taking the belt off Sting, should get the title shot.

TNA often has a pretty strong double main event. This month it certainly isn't, but I think the ongoing storyline has got in the way of the booking of a title match.

I think Rhino vs Sting will be pretty decent. But a babyface challenger shouldn't lose their way into a World Title Match.

Rhino beat sting though, that's why he has a world title shot I'm assuming?

I hope Frontline's savior will be no other than Christopher Daniels! It just makes so much sense, especially since I think Daniels was pretty much in the company since day one and is one of the few new guys that could get his point across and actually give decent promos and Daniels has probaly been the biggest waste of talent in TNA in the last couple years but knowing TNA they'll bring in Nathan Jones and crown him the future of TNA.

It's about a 3+ hour drive from here to Charlotte, yet I doubt I will make the trip. This card doesn't seem worth the MURDEROUS feel of that absolutely hideous drive. It's only about 3 hours, but it feels like 10 for some reason. Halfway there, you regret starting out. They'll have to bring something more sexy than Sting vs. Rhino in the Main Event for me to go.

This guy will be there. Looks like it'll be the highest attendance for a TNA event ever. 6-7 K paid full price for tickets and with the seeming success of the discount/free ticket promotion, their might be legit 10,00 people there, which would be right about capacity.
Also, since it's in Charlotte, the over/under on Figure Four Leglocks done for the show is 4.

Also, since it's in Charlotte, the over/under on Figure Four Leglocks done for the show is 4. It will be interesting to see how many actually paid to see the show. Apparently they sold out their house show last night so there is a market for them. I doubt 6,000 paid though. Maybe 2,000 or 3,000. Predictions: 1. Jarrett 2. Sting 3. AJ/Mick/Devon 4. Homicide wins the X-Division Title when he makes it a 3-way dance. 5. Kong 6. Lethal/Creed 7. Sewell
