- Bound for Glory is shaping up to be a very interesting card. I had doubts about the show this year due to a depleted roster but I feel a lot of the matches they have on the card will be fantastic with more time: The Ultimate X match & Bully vs. AJ especially.
- I enjoy the Impact wrestling podcast.
- Magnus is being built like a star of the future & Sting is being used in a role that he should for this stage of his career. A clean win over Sting should do wonders for Magnus.
- E.G.O is one of the best things going in wrestling today -- in any company.

AJ has a great ... The Styles Clash! I hear that EGO in the tag team match is great But seriously, EGO are behind Sami Zayn and Heel Bo Dallas as my favourite things to watch right now.

Outside of Dixie sucking all the oxygen out of the room, last night Impact was the best one in weeks. Hell, in months. Lack of tigers notwithstanding.... No money in the budget for tigers.

The shows recently haven't been as bad as people make out in my opinion. It's not the best build to their biggest PPV of the year by any stretch but they seem to be in sort of a rebuilding phase at the moment which is fine.
Last night's show was okay, awful opening segment aside, the Aries/Hardy match was pretty sweet and the EGO HOF induction was great. The crowd seemed hot all night too although I was listening through slightly damaged headphones so maybe that was just me.
EGO, Aries, Joe and AJ are all consistently fantastic. I'm loving delusional, douchebag heel Chris Sabin so far. It looks like the A&8's shitstorm is finally coming to an end which releases Bully to be a great heel without the drawback of yet another faction war.
I like the mentor/student/rivalry thing they are doing with Sting/Magnus. And as long as they have Magnus go over and don't do something stupid like turn him heel then TNA will have done a really good job of building a new star in Magnus this year.
The Bound For Glory card is shaping up okay. It could be a lot better but Magnus' potential breakout moment, an awesome looking Ultimate X match, AJ vs. Bully and Roode vs. Angle should all be fun to waatch so at worst it should be a pretty good show.
Also BFG could potentially see the long awaited return of the #WTTCOTW. It's been far too long!

Got to hand it to them, as soon as I heard they hired Hutter, I immediately wanted to tune in again with more regularity. Exactly the type of hiring they should be doing.

I think people are just jumping to conclusions way too fast. Things change drastically from week to week. Dixie's heel turn started out as Dixie McMahon, and now is more of a pompous doofus. Right now is damage control and testing ground days.

I know people harp on about them hiring ex-WWE guys, but honestly, I'm ok with them doing so as long as they're decent (See Burke, Elijah)

There is no better personality in wrestling than Christopher Daniels. Bound For Glory is shaping up nicely Austin Aries has ben consistently performing at a very high level Knux looks as though he might have quite a future Magnus will be a big star within 12-18 months

They're keeping Hogan from taking up WWE airtime.

Last thursday's impact was more entertaining than Raw or SD for the first time in long time.
Also - TNA gets a lot of crap for hiring ex-wwe guys, but I think that comes from them picking guys up and trying to capitalize on their characters in WWE by not changing them one bit. Hardy, Hogan, RVD.
When you take a guy who didn't really get any traction in WWE and give them a new, hopefully better character, TNA gets less flack for it. Pope, being an example.
