Against All Odds 2024:
As usual I don't watch weekly so this is a PPV to PPV experience.
Santana/Maclin vs. Rascalz:
Good opener. Santana looked really good in this one.
Found out Ace Steel was involved somehow and groaned so loud they heard me in space.
PCO vs. Swann:
This was kind of a nothing match. AJ Francis good god. Boring in the ring. Boring on the mic. I could've skipped this one.
Edwards/Myers vs. Nemeth Bros:
Once again I'm irritated the System didn't drop the titles. Myers continues to annoy me by merely existing. The definition of 'mid'.
The ship sailed on Edward Edwards long ago. Okay enough match, wrong winners with them retaining. Again.
Hendry vs. Kazarian:
It was alright. Not really buying the role Kaz is in, and Hendry just seems to exist in TNA. I don't really see him doing anything of substance, he always seems to just 'be there'.
Which is odd given how over he consistently seems to be.
Ali vs. Trent Seven:
Very good match. Loved that the heel turn for Mustafa didn't work, and the crowd just cheered him anyway.
I hope one day he gets a world title run as a babyface. The commentary detracted from this one a bit. I get what they were going for, but it grew annoying after awhile.
ABC vs. Young/Alexander:
I like ABC a lot, have for a long time, but I was shocked they won. Alexander and Maclin respectively were once a massive heated feud, and now they're both just doing this.
I don't watch weekly so it might make a lot more sense if you do, but I've been perplexed by what they've been doing with Maclin for a minute, and now Alexander too.
Jordynne vs. Tatum NXTName:
Meh. I got my hopes up, but it wasn't the surprise I was hoping it could or would be. I don't care for Tatum.
Much like the NXT show Grace's match was the one I was looking forward to the most, and once again I was let down. And once again it wasn't her fault.
Could've skipped this one as well.
Moose vs. Matt Hardy:
I would have enjoyed this a lot more if that woman in the crowd would've SHUT THE f*** UP.
I like Broken Matt, but I'm glad Moose retained. I think the System suck as a whole, but Moose is great independently.
Jeff returning was a nice surprise.
Overall, kind of an eh show for me. Gonna go with 5/10. Perfectly average. A couple decent matches, a few I just wasn't interested in, but a passable main event.
If I had seen this in a vacuum I wouldn't be in a hurry to watch the next show.
