That Swanton...literally the only good thing on this entire show. I missed the first half hour but I'm still confident in saying this.

They need to get this lady cop to take Lei'D Tapa's place.

I'm glad I stuck around to watch COPS. That cop straight up clocked a guy and knocked him on his ass with one punch.

What a piss poor excuse for a wrestling show. I really hope that Kharma/Kong isn't going to be the one who accepts Gail's challenge because she deserves better.
That swanton was pretty damn cool though.

Back from the show. I had fun but I'm gonna assume it was pure struggle watching at home. Also, TNA seriously needs to start airing all of the matches on the big screen for the crowd. WWE spoiled me in that regard but it only makes sense. I was sitting fairly close to ringside (in the second row behind the commetnary booth) and I couldn't see a goddamn thing any time guys did stuff on the outside.

My thoughts on this show (Sorry that it's long winded):
1. The opening 30 minutes could of been condensed into 5-10. We know Angle and Roode hate each other we don't need 15 minutes of them coming arguing and brawling. We get it! The Main Event Mafia could of gone their seperate ways backstage this segment was just a way to get Sting out for the live crowd.
2. Next we had the Pacman Jones segment which is literally a case of simply getting the guy on the show. The Bad Influence angle went nowhere and although I dislike them AND Pacman the Football guys probably should of had some involvement in the EY/Park Vs Bad Influence match. Pacman was a waste of money and hype and no return of someone "proper" is a shame.
3. Following that, the Knockouts match. They are dull, we've seen the same match with all of them for years now and they aren't entertaining. Kill this division or make it a total eye candy division like WWE did in 2003 with Torrie Wilson, Stacy Keibler, Sable, Dawn Marie etc etc New Knockout coming from outside the company? Zzz...
4. The Aces and Eight angle although entertaining made no sense. How did they know Anderson would come down? Why would they pretend to be unhappy for weeks just to get Anderson? Kayfabe wise wouldn't it be smarter just to attack Anderson 3 on 1 without all the head games and trickery?
5. We get the second match about an hour and 15 minutes in. Ethan Carter beats a jobber literally a nothing match. I'd start using old TNA guys to job to EC3 now. Dewey and Norv were funny the first time but not the third or fourth time.
6. Bad Influence I don't like and think they're quite overrated. I think the Bromans should be feuding with EY and Parks considering they are the tag champs. Bad Influence go over and had to cheat to beat a guy who's entire character is that he's inexperienced and doesn't know how to fight. Boring
7. Angle/Aries segment could of been done backstage. Another longish promo was not needed and more brawling was not needed. We get it, they hate each other. Aries not selling the fact he has to work a submission match with a former Olympian is silly as well. He should of played it as being nervous/worried. This is basically the worst outcome for him (Kayfabe wise)
8. A solid main event but I have a major gripe with all the matches in this tournament being gimmick matches. Gimmick matches should be saved as feud enders and these guys could of gone out and had a good 10 minute straight singles match. It's adding a gimmick just for the sake of having one. Ultimately what TNA is doing by overusing the gimmicks is stopping people from buying the PPV's. Why am I going to buy Lockdown if I can wait around a couple months and see a Cage match for free? Ditto for Full Metal Mayhem and the other choices on the Wheel Of Dixie.
9. All in all a very poor show. I'm known as a TNA fan on this board but I can admit when they've done poorly. This was very poorly done and was not enjoyable except for the Aces and Eights angle and the main event. TNA really need to pick up their game next week.

Also, Christy Hemme was just...WOW. She looks smoking on TV but she looks even more gorgeous live.

Not gonna spoil anything but the second show was an improvement over the first one, IMO. Angle/Aries was real good.

I don't get all the bitching about the show. I loved it!
Okay, maybe the third Angle/Roode brawl was pushing it, but it was good to see storylines advancing, feuds being set up etc. People bitch about there being no build for BFG then when they start to actually develop some angles, they bitch about there being no wrestling?
Was disappointed by Aces and 8s not ending but it was a decent swerve I suppose. Just have to wait till No Surrender.
But basically, I enjoyed all the setting up of new feuds. I don't mind there being little wrestling as long as the storyline stuff is interesting and varied. We got Angle / Roode being built up like a MFer, BI/EY-Park being developed, the promise of new KOs in the dying KO division, the end of the MEM (thank God!), Bully/Anderson being hyped and the near end of the Aces and 8s (boo! But at least I didn't see the swerve coming). What's not to like? There isn't a lot of wasted time there. And the wrestling we did get was pretty high octane - Sabin and Hardy pulled out the stops for that main event.
The only time I dislike wrestling-light shows is when it's a boring 30 minute in-ring mic-segment a la the worst of the Immortal/Aces and 8s angles. When literally half a dozen new storylines are being advanced in different ways, then I have no complaints.
It's a shame we don't get to see more of AJ's non-TNA matches, though. Just showing a small clip makes the whole angle a bit of an Internet-fan only treat. The casual TV viewer will find it hard to give a damn when the only evidence of AJ's tour with the belt is a 2 second clip. I'm sure there are copyright/licensing reasons etc, but a 1 or 2 minute highlight reel would have been better from a viewer's perspective.

Yeah, throw me in the group that loved last night's show. I thought the Roode/Angle stuff was amazing and what wrestling should be, the MEM breakup was long overdue and done well with 3 of them wanting the title and Sting wanting EC3, the Aces and Anderson stuff was well done, and I love the fact that BI is looking to be the ones that end the Joseph Park/Abyss stuff. The only miss for me was the ladies' stuff and the main event as I cannot stand Sabin.
