Good match.
Brian Hebner's such an awesome ref. Makes matches better.

The response by Kharma on Twitter seems to indicate that she knew she was getting shitcanned.

Storm and Roode is the best one they've got going. It shouldn't be too long before they revisit it.

Ughhhhh, c'mon TNA with the immediate rematch. Do Roode and Aries really need to fight 3 different times in a month?

This lighting really reminds me of Nitro
Gotcha. But do they have issues with developing stories in general? Last time I tuned in, this was a huge issue.

Right now they have
- Aries/Roode
- Roode/Storm on the backburner
- Bully Ray/Joseph Park/ Abyss
- Zema Ion/Sorenson neck injury angle brewing
- AJ/Daniels/whatever her name is baby mama drama
- Sting/Aces & Eights
- Bound For Glory Series which crosses over with some of the feuds all fighting for a championship shot.
I'd say that's pretty good and fills up the show nicely every week.

one of the guys was throwing a pretty good right down on him
That's an okay list, but it doesn't compare to WWE.
-Daniel Bryan, CM Punk, and AJ
-SHEAMUS AND DEL RIO?

Gotcha. Sounds like a fair bit. The goal of wrestling is to make the audience feel invested in the characters. To me, wrestlers are like mythological figures that do battle on a grand stage. If I don't care about why they're fighting, it's not really interesting.
Come on, man.

-Cena vs. everybody

Luke Gallows was REALLY entertaining doing the American Badass shtick in Ring Ka King. He should have the same gimmick in TNA if true.
How would Lance Hoyt be part of it though, isn't he in New Japan?

I guess you could say it's still somewhat of an issue. Aries going from earning a contract, to becoming X Division champ, to dominating with the title and winning the world championship is a story that was built and handled extremely well throughout though.
I saw Hogan laid out in the back coming. But lol, really, who the fuck are these guys? They better have a well known person leading this group.
Sorry I changed the last guy because it was wrong. Its wasn't Lance Hoyt.

Ahh, that would make a bit more sense.

If they couldnt get a big name this would work nicely. The problem is the IWC would eat it up but the casual fan would just see it as Steiner coming back from vacation. This angle could be really cool if they could get someone like Batista to play the Scott Hall/Kevin Nash role as the leader of an invasion faction.
Impact was OK tonight. Wasnt great by any means but certainly wasnt a terrible show either, just kind of meh. Of course Raw would kill for a meh show after what they put out this week. If this show would have been in a smark city the Roode-Aries exchange could have been really cool, but instead it was in the shitty impact zone.

Just got back from the show. They had an 8 man tourney for the title, but will have the finals next week.
Quarter-Finals:
Richie Steamboat vs. Leo Kruger
Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre
Bo Dallas vs. Jinder Mahal
Michael McGillicutty vs. Justin Gabriel
Semi-Finals:
Richie Steamboat vs. Jinder Mahal
Seth Rollins vs. Michael McGillicutty
Seth Rollins vs. Michael McGillicutty
Finals (to be taped in two weeks):
Seth Rollins vs. Jinder Mahal
There were obviously quite a few other matches. The biggest pops other than Rollins were Ascension, Paige, and Scotty 2 Hotty (who had a match with Heath Slater).
Also, Sinn Bodhi (Kizarny) was in the crowd just one row in front of me.

Where is
and why don't they seem to be doing anything with him?
Ohno
I love HBK, lol.
He had a match, but the crowd just chanted "Jesus!" for the most part. I was a pretty big fan of him in the indies, but feel he's completely neutered and boring from what I've seen of his WWE run.
