Christian Cage vs Kazarian. This match has been brought to you by 2006 TNA. To be fair, 2006 was a pretty decent year for TNA, though Russo rolling back in at the tail end put the kibosh on that. |

Solid card overall, and I'm sure Arcade Anarchy will be fun. I'm with people kind of tired of the Good Bros' shtick.
I know they'll get to it eventually and this is probably just a confidence boost kind of match, but I do wish Christian's first dance partner was somebody new. But again, I think Kazarian's playing the Orton role in this situation and I'm sure it'll be a fine bout.

Absolutely. I freaking loved TNA from the start until Hogan and Bischoff came in. My point is that I loved ECW in the 90's, but didn't want to see ECW nostalgia shows in 2010. It's fine that both guys are in AEW, but couldn't Christian's first opponent be something cool like Hangman Page, Pentagon, one of the Bucks, etc instead of something that reminds us how old he is and how long he's been around? |

I’d usually agree but as this is literally his first full match in 7 years, after being expected to never wrestle again, it’s likely a safer option to go with someone he knows to shake out the basement of cobwebs that must be down there before going that route. |

I can already see how the women's will end. Matt gets involved and Allie pins Shida I mean...I think that Shida and Tay winning and Shida granting Tay a title shot sounds about as likely, especially since they gave Tay a pretty firm "top star" win. Especially given how thrown-together top face teams have generally won their big tag matches in the women's matches. Shida did get pinned close to her birthday by Penelope Ford last year in a tag match. |

Shida did get pinned close to her birthday by Penelope Ford last year in a tag match. True, but that was when they had nobody but Ford to challenge for the title and needed to build her in a hurry since she had previously been mostly a valet. They could repeat history with Allie, or they could do an angle where Shida defends against the popular #1 ranked contender who just got her first Dynamite win over the previous champion. I'd wager the booking tea leaves favor the latter without making the former impossible. |

After a seven year layover and starting out fresh in an entirely new environment, having someone as familiar to him as Kazarian is for his first outing is prob'ly the best thing for Christian. Let him get comfortable, then the cool stuff can happen later. Plus Kazarian can take the loss without being too affected by it. |

Kazarian's a ring general type and a very trusted worker. I think he's a perfect choice for Christian to shake the rust off. |

Sounds like they’re pretty high on Bononi. Aside from that one bad spot with Luchasaurus, he's been very serviceable and I've heard he's really well liked backstage. |

Kinda like when WWE had Sting and Lesnar fight Big Show... That is actually a good example because, well, Sting’s faced Big Show in WCW a lot and some of Brock’s better matches were against Show so yeah, if you’re going to bring someone in and you have someone from the older company there...better to use them to shake the ring rust off someone then put that responsibility on a newer talent. |

Avalon still absent, but this confirms Drake and Nemeth are all in the same faction with them |

Judging from his Twitter, it looks like Darby and Sting are going to address Matt Hardy via one of his videos.

Sounds good to me, I'm just glad they broke that cycle of Tony interviewing them I thought last week was a great change of pace. Really elevated the Dark Order by being in the same ring as Sting. |
