I am so hesitant to erase the whole show off TIVO just because of that segment. The WOOOOOs, the dropping the elbows, the throwing the shoes and the "that's my line" exchange were all classic!!!!!

watching that, I thought AJ was gonna get the boot and Lethal would become a member of Flair's faction. What's with all the heel/face flipping anyway?

'Dreamer's the reason we see no Rob Terry, Orlando Jordan, and Rosie Lottalove on Impact.'

And Rob Terry lost the Global Title or whatever that shit belt is to Styles at a house show.

This ECW thing is a disaster. That last segment last Thursday with weepy Dreamer and that wretched speech was the worst segment I can remember on wrestling tube.
This said, I am curious about the PPV, and I guess that is the point. After skipping last one for a simple $6, I think Ill get this one. But Im expecting train wreck here.

I was watching it yesterday, and was really getting bored by it. Then the show ends, and I frowned for a good ten minutes straight.
That was horrible.

It wasn't great but to say it was the worst segment ever on the wrestling tube when you have all those "great" Raw guest host segments to compare it too seems a bit exagerated to me....

It's bad when you consider how awesome the chaos was the week before.

The Ultimate X match on Impact this week was not only one of the best of the genre's history, one of the better TV matches I've ever seen. When Beer Money went up 2-0 you had a feeling, the only problem with 3 out of 2 series, or ever 4 of 7 any series of matches you know it;s going all the way. Hell you knew it with Benoit vs Booker the first times around. But this Ultimate x match they made it seem that Beer Money could really win the match and series 3-1 with the straps. Awesome match, satisfying ending, can't wait for number 5. I'm glad the Guns have the belts and get a run, I hope it doesn't end soon.

thoughts on "they"? Just a wild guess here, no inside knowledge or anything......I say it's Sting, Nash, Jarrett, Bischoff and maybe a few others. Bischoff turns on Hogan and we find this whole Jarrett?Sting feud has been a huge work

Ok, i'm at a loss on this one. Hogan, Bischoff, Hardy and Jarrett turn heel and join Abyss? Sting will be proven right and be the good guy, but Nash is tweeting that he is done with TNA as of Tuesday.....Pope?

I am really starting to think that all these years Hogan and Bischoff are really on Vince's payroll and are sent to destroy any organization that goes up against him...

Watched TNA last night, and liked the angle they ran with Matt Morgan. Ive been a Matt Morgan fan for a while, much to the amusement of many, and somewhat to the confusion of myself. I think he cuts decent promos, and for someone his size he is not a bad wrestler at all. I thought his match with Kurt Angle at a PPV earlier this year was excellent.
So now Morgan is a face, I know Hogan wanted to push him that way all along. I guess its the size fetish sort of thing. But I like the way they did this angle, with Morgan not happy that Bischoff and company were trying to force Anderson to wrestle with a concussion, and standing up for it. This of course ended up with him getting beat down, and ejected from the Fortune ensamble.
Morgan vs Jeff Hardy at the next PPV. After skipping out on the last 4 or so, I may need to go to my trader for this one.

Agree with you on Morgan..I was always surprised that Vince first saddled him with that stuttering gimmick and then let him go. He is a big man with good ability and I think he is good on the mic.......
Tom was wondering, what do you think of Reaction? I kind of like it as it is something different and breath of fresh air as opposed to just throwing on a "B" show or something like that........I enjoy the "behind the scenes" and when they profile the guys weekly with a back story...I also like how sometimes it adds some explanations/insights to some of the angles...

Are they kidding me with that new belt??? It looks like a bad Mardi Gras prop....It make the WWE Spinning Belt look as prestifgious as the NWA heavyweight title.....

couple interesting things from Reaction last night
1. Robert Roode talking about AJ Styles being the world champ again soon 2. James Storm. was the whole drunkard thing a comedy bit, or planting a seed to drop yet another guy out of Fourtune?

I am a fan of the show and will be sad to see it go.....
Breaking News: TNA ReAction Is Done, Tonight Is The Final Episode By Colin McAndrew (Contributor) on December 30, 2010 679 With all of the news of Cena's injury and Jeff Hardy pleading guilty, this little nugget slipped through the cracks.
The groundbreaking TNA ReAction has been removed from Spike TV's lineup. Tonight is scheduled to be the last episode. Now there are reports that have stated it was canceled.
That is not true, the fact is it was only slated to run until the end of 2010.
This show had some mixed reviews as not all of the wrestlers were able to sell it properly. However, guys like Hardy, Anderson, Lethal and Pope gave some solid moments.
This also allowed TNA to go over their slated two-hour Impact show and end matches on ReAction.
However, this show allowed fans to get an inside, behind the scenes, raw look at TNA's wrestlers. I personally will miss this show, as I work in TV and enjoy seeing that kind of behind-the-scenes feel.
According to fanhouse.com, "Dixie Carter and Spike are talking about doing expanded telecasts of TNA shows."
It will be interesting to see what they will come up with. Maybe another show with some sort of TNA content would benefit some other talent and allow them some TV time.
