TNA Turning Point Pre Show Thread *Spoilers*

JP Liz V1

On Sunday, November 7, TNA Wrestling presents "Turning Point" live on Pay-Per-View from Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.

I'm guessing RVD V Hardy for the title will be the main event

Machismo Fan

Guns vs. 3D, Jarrett vs. Joe and Madison vs. Mickie James most likely aswell.

Any particular reason, Hardy vs. Anderson is the only match to be officially announced so far?

michael.etc...

Mostly because the last couple of Impacts have been, in my book, really good. Some really good individual peformances especially have me looking at this optimistically.

I don't agree with the principal of Hardy turning heel... but he's been looking good. And that match should be a cracker. At the very least there's going to be a different dynamic in a couple of the matches.

Agreed, I think a lot of people unfairly condemned the last two iMPACT! solely because they've been talk heavy and the nWo similarities but they have been great shows (particularly this weeks ReAction which did a really good job of walking viewers through the formation of Immortal). There's potential for top notch matches between Immortal and the top babyfaces and it's overall been good TV. I just hope Immortal are eventually beaten after being built up.

Am I right in saying if the Gunns win Team 3D have to retire?

3D are retiring regardless. They want to go out as tag champs.

Dixie signed them to new contracts so they are staying put now

Source The Wrestling Observer

Team 3D signed new multi-year deals with TNA Wrestling last week. They were expected to remain with the company, but there was communication between WWE & Team 3D about them coming in to revitalize their tag team division.
There was also an interest in WWE signing Brother Ray as a producer down the line. There was also talk about how WWE could use Team 3D's wrestling academy in Florida to help train some of the newer developmental talents. In the end, they both wound up re-signing with TNA. The travel schedule in TNA also played a role in their decision to sign with TNA

The storyline is that they're retiring regardless.

Maybe they will have 3D do work behind the scenes

I can see Dixie begging the likes of 3D and Sting to come back and help her get rid of Immortal.

jmolloy

in relation to the 3d training academy thought rumours were circulating tna weren't ecstatic with the standard it was turning out. Rob Terry and Rosie Lottalove are/were very limited in what they can do

Due to Ken Anderson suffering a concussion, he will not be working the November 7th TNA Turning Point PPV.

SPOILER: TNA shot an angle at last night's tapings, putting Matt Morgan into the match to challenge for the TNA Title against Jeff Hardy.

UPDATE: There is currently no timetable for when Ken Anderson will return to action in TNA. Anderson suffered a concussion, and was going to get it checked out this week. Once he is examined, he and TNA will have a better idea of when he can return to the ring.

The word is that TNA wants to be careful with the concussion issue for obvious reasons, and that is why they decided to go with Matt Morgan vs. Jeff Hardy

We noted earlier today that a top EV 2.0 star may be on his way out of TNA after this Sunday's Turning Point PPV.

TNAWrestlingNews.com can exclusively report that Terry Taylor called Sabu and told him that he was being "let go" from TNA following Sunday's Turning Point PPV. Taylor said that creative had "nothing for him", therefore they are letting him go. Sabu is not happy with this at all. He says he will show up at the PPV, but is very unhappy about this situation.

TNAWrestlingNews.com will have more on this as it becomes available.

I can see them phasing out Stevie and Raven aswell.

shame i like stevie - always felt he was underused a lot in his career and he's in the shape of hs life at the moment - perhaps he should take raven and dreamer to the gym with him - i like rhino too - they finally find something for him to do and his contract is up - nice work there lads.

Splitting Fortune from Immortal this early would be pointless.

Isn't pointless booking the M.O. of TNA?

Does this start at 12 tonight?

JK9

Again, not massively interested in this TNA PPV maybe with the exception of Hardy and Morgan. I think they may be a pleasant surprise. I read a while ago that they've had plenty of matches at house shows so their chemistry is quite good. But maybe I'm recalling that wrong.

I think the clocks went back in Yankland last night so it's on at 1.

I'll stick this show out as long as a good stream in going. However, there is nothing in this show that interests me at all.

I don't watch TNA TV anymore, but their PPVs tend to have some good matches.

Will that be heavily edited or the full broadcast?

It's normally the full thing. They might edit out a few interviews or video packages but all the matches should be included in their entirety.
