They used to RAW, you think that's going to disappoint them?

No, I meant all the people coming back just due to this new "Monday Night War" and Bret Hart, but I get what you're saying.

Just walked in after working out to see that terrible fat wrestler trying to get out of the cage, but all is redeemed by seeing Amazing Red and Jeff Hardy.
Didn't know that the former was around anymore and the latter was a cool surprise.

First time watching Impact (or any wrestling) in a good year or so, fyi.

Well, so much for starting things off with a bang. That was dreadful. Awkward Homicide failing to climb for like 5 minutes. No-contest. No direction, just a bunch of spot monkeying. Jeff Hardy's return was pretty anti-climatic too.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Crowd reacted well to Hardy--everybody on here is complaining, but that's a good start to the show (other than the horrific Russo-esque ending to the match and Homicide botching the climbout. A recognizable WWE face shows up in the first 15 minutes.

So the guy not being able to climb out the cage wasn't supposed to happen?

Seemed pretty clear he was supposed to climb out and then maybe Hardy fight him on top of the cage or something.

Nice try, TNA. Nice try...

so far:

- "WEEZ GOT SEXAY WRESTLERS AND HOGAN"
- red bar steel cage and crappy finish + Meth Hardy

+ none so far

So far this show has Russo written ALL over it.

Seriously getting Nitro feelings right now! Tenay talking about Hogan coming in for an entrance. It really is the late 90s all over again.

You like me, you really really like me!
As someone who grew up with the Monday Night Wars, I'm loving this.


LOVIN IT. Now we just need Bischoff to show up and cut a promo talking shit about Vince. :lol

TNA getting Hady is good for the company, but him skipping out of the crowd and getting shoved by a dude who couldn't even pull himself out of the cage is not a good way to kick things off. Missed opportunity to be sure.

How does Kevin Nash look so good for being...50(?). Big sexy indeed.
Also the ending to match #1 looked pretty crappy, but live is better than taped bore-age.

Also why do I want to stick it in ODB. But I'll take Victoria over her anyday of course.
