I think they're saving the AJ/Bully Ray blow off for Slammiversary so Dreamer is just filling time, and yeah I'd prefer Daniels/Gunner instead of Kendrick/Robbie E but hopefully they'll do that next month aswell.

Preview of Harris and Hardy vs. Beer Money:

On Sunday night at the Sacrifice Pay-Per-View event, World Tag Team Champions Beer Money will defend the gold against the team of Matt Hardy and his surprise partner, the returning "Wildcat" Chris Harris. The question is - what will happen when former tag team partners James Storm and Chris Harris face off inside the ring?

When TNA began in 2002, the alliance of "Wildcat" Chris Harris and "Cowboy" James Storm (known as America's Most Wanted) became one of the most dominating tag teams in professional wrestling, capturing multiple World Tag Team title reigns in the process. Their feuds with early teams such as The New Church, Triple X, Simon Diamond and Johnny Swinger and The Naturals became instant classics. Based on their dominance, early TNA fans knew that all future tag teams would be measured against AMW's accomplishments.

After the amazing run, personal animosity and issues between Harris and Storm ultimately caused their violent breakup in 2006, resulting in a series of bouts between both wrestlers. Harris ultimately left TNA in 2008, while Storm put America's Most Wanted in his past and embarked on a singles career.

However, it wasn't long before Storm found another tag team partner in Robert Roode, forming "Beer Money" - which quickly became one of the most popular tag teams in TNA history. Robert Roode provided the money, James Storm provided the beer, and together the duo were unstoppable in the ring, capturing four Tag Team championship reigns. In less than a decade, James Storm had been a part of not one, but TWO of the greatest tag teams in TNA history.

And then, Matt Hardy (a tag team legend in his own right) turned the world of tag team wrestling upside-down…

This past Thursday, Hardy promised to reveal his mystery partner for Sunday's Sacrifice Pay-Per-View against Beer Money…and in a huge surprise he brought out "Wildcat" Chris Harris! It was the first time since Harris left TNA that he had been face-to-face with his former tag team partner James Storm.

What will happen when Harris and Storm step inside the ring this Sunday night and go face-to-face for the first time in nearly four years? How violent will it get? Based on people close to each wrestler, their animosity for each other is still strong. Thus far, both Harris and Storm have refused to comment, although TNA officials hope to interview them before Sunday's event. Certainly, there's so much history - and hatred - involved in Sunday's bout as Beer Money defends the gold against Matt Hardy and Chris Harris.

http://www.tnawrestling.com/news/item/2656-News-Karen-Jarrett-Claims-Injury-After-Fall,-Status-For-Sunday-s-PPV-Uncertain

On Friday afternoon, Karen Jarrett claimed via her Twitter account that she had suffered a "bad fall" and was having trouble walking. Then, on Saturday, Karen posted that "Due to my fall, not sure I will be up to having a match on Sunday at the PPV".

On Sunday night at the Sacrifice Pay-Per-View event, The Jarretts are scheduled to compete in a mixed-tag team match against Kurt Angle and Chyna, who makes her in-ring wrestling return. Kurt hopes to get final revenge against his longtime enemy in Jeff Jarrett, and he also brought in Chyna to battle his former wife Karen.

TNA officials have stated that they are still trying to gather information about Karen's fall, and as of Saturday afternoon she is still being promoted for the match. Her travel itinerary to Orlando for the PPV has not yet been changed.

You can read her Twitter posts below:

(Friday morning)
karenjarrett: Can't stop thinking about Sunday's PPV...UGH...going shopping...always makes me feel better!

(Friday afternoon)
karenjarrett: Had a bad fall today!!! can't hardly walk!!!

(Saturday afternoon)
karenjarrett: Due to my fall, not sure I will be up to having a match on Sunday at the PPV....

We have been unable to get in contact with Karen to determine the extent of her injury, or how it occurred. Jeff Jarrett has been traveling with this weekend's TNA Live Events, and instead of commenting on her injury, he blasted Kurt Angle via his Twitter for putting Karen - the mother of Angle's children - in harm's way:

JeffJarrettTNA: People continue to make conscious, yet very reckless, decisions about people's future, but they have no regard for the consequences of them.

This starting at 1am?

Charisteas

Really looking forward to this, coming off the back of a strong Impact, should be a few decent matches here. Think Kazarian/Buck could be the show-stealer. No Steiner/Morgan though? I guess 9 matches is enough for 3 hours.

Headshot

any streams for this?
