Loaded show already on paper.

gnfnrhead

Three potential MOTYC already. Problem now is that's most of their top level talent used up. Still the likes of Storm and Bully Ray but I doubt either will be expected to produce as much as those three matches. Hell, stick them against each other in a BFGS match and it could make for an amazing show if everyone performs.

Gail vs Brooke, Ultimate X and one or two more BFGS matches and I think that's the lot.

GTR63

Looks a great show on paper already, after 2 really good ppv's on the bounce before this.
Bully Ray vs Samoa Joe could be a belter when it happens down the line.

How's tonight on IMPACT for you?

ayatollah

they seem to have lost all faith in crimson.

ended his streak and now hes not even in the bfg series

i'd love them to actually do the BFG series correctly this year with who's in it there could be some brilliant matches.

whatever they've done to motivate joe - its worked - keep it up.

sick of styles jobbing though man is too nice of a guy for his own good.

thebostoncrab

Really excited for this PPV, my expectations are stupidly high. I only hope that Aries comes out of this looking like a million bucks and doesn't get lost in the shuffle, he is the best thing going in any company and his latest run with TNA has exceeded everyones expectations

There'll be four opening round matches on the show to get into the Ultimate X match the same night. Currently set for those matches are Doug Williams, Kid Kash, Zema Ion, Sonjay Dutt and Rashad Cameron.

As long as Garrett Bischoff is keep well away from the X Divison title picture this should be a good ppv

Well he hasn't been announced so I doubt he'll be in it, I'm really hoping they bring in El Generico next week.

daniels and styles and bryan and punk in wwe have wrestled in some kind of match against each other an amazing 29 times on tv since the end of last august (13 times for bryan and punk, 16 times for aj and daniels)

unfortunately I think it's gonna be the same old from TNA, with an amazing PPV and then bury the X division for another 11 months.
I hope they prove me wrong.

gnfnrhead

What's the PPV after this? It's not the one with the BFGS finals, is it? Assuming it isn't, I can see Aries getting another shot, maybe even winning at Destination X but not winning the title.

Aries has been X champion since September. That's anything but a burial of the division. A burial would have been sticking the title on someone who doesn't appear every week and defend nearly every PPV. It hasn't been a focal point, but it definitely hasn't been burried.

Hardcore Justice, the BFG Series finals are at No Surrender in September. I could certainly see them doing Aries/Roode again in August.

The other qualifiers last night were Flip Casanova (who hopefully won't break any noses this time) and Kenny King. There'll also be a four way between the four losers to get the final spot (which Jigsaw really should win). So the tournament will have Doug Williams, Zema Ion, Kid Kash, Sonjay Dutt, Rashad Cameron, Flip Casanova, Kenny King and the winner of the four way.

The announce team will be JB and Tenay for the show.

Thats great news. No Taz phoning it in and making unfunny jokes. Makes up for the lack of Joseph Park(maybe he will be in the crowd eating popcorn though) and Bully Ray who has now joined Twittuh, is he still on myspace I wonder.

the groutch

they might be furthering the Tazz - Joey Ryan storyline, maybe have Ryan ambush him in the parking lot

Machismo Fan

Really looking forward to this tonight. Hopefully my internet cooperates.

spiritcrusher

Is Joseph Parks v Bully Ray on this show? I was certain it was confirmed but there's no mention of it in this thread or the prediction one...

They said family reasons so I'd guess he wont be there at all. IIRC, it was the same reason last year too.

Tonites Ultimate X qualifier matches.
-Kenny King vs. Doug Williams.
-Sonjay Dutt vs. Rashad Williams.
-Flip Casanova vs. Zema Ion.
-Kid Kash vs. the winner of the
Last Chance Four Way.

Stereomaniac

What do ye make of Darsow? I caught his match on the last Impact there and I thought he was decent enough. Kinda surprised considering who his father is! Maybe the apple did get a bit of distance from the tree!

gnfnrhead

My prediction are still on track. Reckon King, Dutt, Ion and Rubix.

I thought it was a poor showing. He was much better last year.

Stereomaniac

That was literally the first time I ever even heard of him, so I was easily impressed. Was Barry Darsow ever any good? Never thought much of Demolition.

It was at the opening of the ppv while the fireworks were going off

I cant tell you where they flag was unfortunately

Eire-Dearg

So is it the winner of this faces the winners from the qualifiers for the title?

Will the World Title match still be last?

ricero

Who are these four lads ? I never saw them before on tna

spiritcrusher

This Cash lad is the spit of Jeremy Renner.

Also, the crowd fairly sucks tonight. Sounds like there's about 20 people there.

CMpunked

Is there a reason Taz isn't on commentary?

spiritcrusher

"Family reasons" apparently. I reckon Batista slept with his wife.

Headshot

I dont usually care about crowds tbh but damn I have to say its like a tumble weed around the ring

Furious-Red

1st 3 matches have been very enjoyable , hopefully Rubix gets a contract

Cherry_Cola

Yeah just about to say the same, the crowd is really killing it. It's so different to how the crowds have been for impact over the last few weeks.

CMpunked

To be fair, it's not like they know a whole lot about who are in the ring it seems.

ricero

Sad to see earl hebner in tna

Headshot

love that foot stump

BohsJohnny

this cameron fella is sabian right wasn't he a jobber to ryback like only two weeks ago now he is in a title tourament.

Headshot

good to hear some news about jesse

Furious-Red

Presume Ion will interupt Jesse

Headshot

Hopefully they'll get rid of that American football gimmick

Eire-Dearg

Great show thus far, pity about the crowd and my dodgy stream.

Headshot

What time is it over at?
