Sting package.
Jeff Jarrett w/ Gail Kim vs. Jay Lethal
Gail looks really hot with pigtails. Jarrett attacks Lethal before the bell. He takes him outside and throws him into the rail. Here comes Jackie Gayda. She has a tape recorder in her hand. Gail Kim takes the recorder as Jarrett tells her “it’s nothing.” He brings Lethal back in and gets some kicks in, but Lethal mounts an attack. A springboard dropkick drops Jarrett. Huge flying headbutt into a 2 count. Jarrett regains control and Lethal oversells the Stroke.
Winner: Jeff Jarrett
Heeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrre’s Christian. Christian announces he will be challenging Jarrett at Against All Odds. Christian promises the fans a victory.
Team 3D vs. Kenny King and Buck Quartermain
Team 3D take it right to King and Quartermain. Brother Devon starts in with Kenny King. Brother Ray is tagged in and continues the work on King. King gets the tag in to Quartermain. Ray tags in Devon. 3-D leads to the 1-2-3.
Winners: Team 3D
Ray has the 2005 tag team of the year award in hand and thanks the fans for it. He says they can’t choose who to face: AMW or Team Canada. He says the fans will decide who they get to face at Against All Odds, so I take that as Team 3D vs. AMW at Against All Odds unless TNA rigs the results for some reason.
Samoa Joe/A.J. Styles/ Christopher Daniels package. It’s now a 3-way dance at A.A.O. for the X-Title.
Shane catches up with Jerry Lynn and Alex Shelley, Austin Aries, and Roderick Strong. Matt Bentley shows up with Traci. Bentley asks Jerry where his opportunity is. Lynn says he’ll get one right now.
Christopher Daniels DVD plug.
Matt Bentley w/ Traci vs. Samoa Joe!
Joe with a belly to belly suplex. Some stiff kicks and a knee. Dave Hebner is in the crowd. Bentley with some chops. He misses a dropkick. Aries, Shelley, and Strong and Jerry Lynn are all out watching. Bentley with a bulldog, some punches, a hurricanrana, and a 2 count. Joe gets him in position for a Musclebuster, but Bentley fights it off. He quickly finds himself in the Kakina Clutch, however, and taps out.
Winner: Samoa Joe
Rhino/Abyss feud highlighted.
Abyss w/ James Mitchell vs. Rhino
Many punches and chops are traded. Belly to belly from Rhino. He goes for an early Gore, but Abyss easily dodges it. Against All Odds commercial. Rhino still on offense as we return. Damn Dave Hebner is on the ramp again for no good reason. Abyss is on cruise control now. He stomps his way to the corner and crushed Rhino. Mitchell “sets off the detonator.” Rhino with a spinebuster instead. The crowd wants a Gore. Abyss dodges again and throws him over the top rope. Abyss picks up a chair and nails Rhino twice across the back. Rhino fights back and hits Abyss with a trashcan. Now Rhino has a chair. Abyss puts his hands up like a bitch and Rhino nails him. Another hit with the garbage can. Rhino sets up for the Gore and Gores Abyss right through the wall!!! Abyss is convulsing and referee Andrew Thomas throws the match out.
Winner: No one except the fans.
Mike Tenay is in the ring getting ready to interview Sting. Sting’s entrance takes a good minute and a half to two minutes. The fans are going nuts.
“Welcome back!” chant. Sting talks about his last match with Ric Flair in March 2001. Sting says his career flashed before his eyes that night. Sting says he was never able to say goodbye to the fans on that night. Sting says when he saw TNA wrestlers like A.J. Styles, Abyss, and Samoa Joe, he had to accept the offer to join TNA. Sting is interrupted by a “You still got it!” chant. He says Final Resolution was his most memorable match ever. He thanks Dixie Carter and TNA management and the fans. “Thank you, Sting!” chant. Sting is getting very emotional and saying that he has to say goodbye. “Please don’t go!” chant. Sting leaves the bat in the ring and walks out to a round of applause. He is greeted on the ramp by A.J. Styles, Sonjay Dutt, Chris Sabin, and Christian Cage. We fade out with Sting walking down the entranceway. For once the end of the show wasn’t a brawl and it was awesome.
Wow. You know this week's iMPACT! actually sounds very impressive. Granted i am only getting what is down on paper but even so i am really looking forward to getting the chance to watch this one.
The opening match sounds like nothing special but still i am happy that Lethal got a chance against Jarrett as even thogh he lost it wasn't a complete squash as Jay got in some offence against the champ and that's always a good thing. Not too sure where this Jackie Gayda storyline is headed but one thing i do know is that it somehow involves Canada and Raven so with all hopes when this storyline does finally payoff it means a title shot for a returning Raven. One thing i can say is that TNA don't rush their storylines and i like that, true sometimes they drag them out much like the 3LiveKru breakup storyline but still their giving this storyline enough time to properly devolop and build up so that when they finally do release the spring on this storyline the fans reaction will be as big as possible.
So Christian finally get's his shot. I'm happy that he finally has his shot but for some reason i am now worried that he won't take the belt. Before i was certain that once they gave Christian he shot at the belt he would take it but now i'm just not so sure. Hopefully i'm wrong i guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Here we have the routine squash match that means nothing. Seriously i bet that soon enough Buck Quartermain is gonna fuck over TNA creative by using a tight roll up to beat one of his opponents even when he's not suppossed to. Honestly i think i would mark out at that. So Team 3D are letting the fans decide who they face. Well it's not a bad concept but i think it will all lead to a 3 way tag team match which should be quite an interesting match. I just wonder who exactly from Team Canada will Team 3D face though if they get voted in?
Woo woo! I knew we'd get to see Joe/Daniels/Styles II i just knew it. I think re-doing this match is a great idea. Although it wasn't my TNA Match of the Year it did come second in the awards (still can't bleieve the Barbed Wire Massacre won) so obviously the majority of fans loved it and when you think this match was done before TNA was back on national television now that they have a bigger audience it makes sense to put on such a great match once again.
I'm glad to see that TNA are still pushing Generation Next on their programming. Not so sure how Jerry Lynn will fit into all of this, i hope he doesn't stay as an office bitch as Lynn is worth more then that.
Joe kills Bentley.......i love it. I actually like Bentley and much like the opening match this wasn't a complete squash as Bentley did get to show off a bit of what he can do but then having Joe destroy him is always fun to watch. Joe is just being built up more and more and hopefully he wins at Against All Odds and goes on to have an even more successful reign as X Division Champion because at the end of the day what could Daniels or Stlyes do with th belt that they haven't already done? I say let Joe keep it and increase it's credibility and then drop it to one of the younger guys like someone out of Generatio Next or Chris Sabin.
This sounds like a damn good Main Event. I'm glad Rhino is getting his chance in TNA as i always knew Rhino had talent and was being underused in WWE but it wasn't until he arrived in TNA that i realised just how much talent the guy has, he truely is one heck of a worker. Ofcourse Abyss is just himself as one of if not the best big man in the business and so you put these two together and you get a damn good match up. The match was short but that's good as it leaves us wanting more and ofcourse with the no contest ending you know we're going to get more. I hope this feud continues through to Lockdown. TNA could pull the whole thing that the ring can not control the Man Beast and the Monster but maybe the Six Sides of Steel can.
One thing i must bring to attention is Dave Hebner. What the hell does he want? Once again i'm gonna leave this to TNA having a plan and a storyline that they want to pan out slowly but atleast give us some hnt as to what they have planned with old Dave.
The Sting goodbye speach sounds like a gooden. Not so sure if it is how i would end a show but still it sounds like the fans reacted to it well which is the best thing really. We all know Sting hasn't gone as he signed a one year deal so the best thing about this is that it leaves us wondering what will hapen next? When will the Stinger come back? What will drive him out of retirement as he seemed pretty adament about finishing on his own terms which he has now done. Personally i'm looking forward to this storyline playing out but picking up on my earlier point i think that it will lead to Sting returning to face Jarrett for the title which means Christian won't win the belt. But still i liked this goodbye and seeing some of the superstars show their respect's is another good thing.
Overall as i said i am looking forward to getting hold of this show and i think the ratings this week might be the ones to break the 1.0 mark. So what are your thoughts on this week's show? Anyone who got the chance to see the show your thought's would be much appreciated. Cheers.
