I thought this was a good show but not their best show, the highlights I took from the show are... World X-Cup Qualifier Match with Dutt winning, very cool. Samoa Joe snapping! The 8-Man Main Event with Styles pinning Moore for the victory, good to see Daniels and Styles working together. I would say that Lastnights overall wrestling on TV was OK, I still take iMPACT! over the WWE's SNME... but, thats me.

I enjoyed TNA's impact last night it was good. I think I was just happy to catch two heapings of wrestling lastnight regardless of the fed. A nice mix that makes for a enjoyable Saturday Night!

I would say that Lastnights overall wrestling on TV was OK, I still take iMPACT! over the WWE's SNME... but, thats me. Yeah, this show kicked ass all right. Listening to Steiner stumble through his promo and bring it to a stunning conclusion with that line about him and Jarrett being the "new face of TNA," was great. Actually, it may have been one of the stupidest promos ever. Watching Samoa Joe trash the office: Man, that rocked, too. Well, not really, because he looked like a clown doing that huffing and puffing shit. I couldn't tell if he actually threw the couch on top of Jeremy Borash, though. All in all, I tried to get into this show, but couldn't. I would like to congratulate anyone who did enjoy this show, however, especially if they found it more entertaining than what WWE has been doing lately. |

It's funny...for me, TNA's storylines have been better than the matches...
Steiner was much crisper on the mic than I remember...Christian sounded awful on his video piece, very unsure and not what you want your world champion to sound like.
Cute moment: Steiner rags on Christian and tries to move onto Sting...but the crowd nearly drowns him out chanting for Christian.

Truthfully, I don't really know if I liked Steiner's promo or not. It was completely ruined, however, when he and Jarrett mugged for the camera and he did the whole "new face of TNA" thing.

I actually liked Steiner's promo. I liked when he said that Christian is "one b*+ch-slap away from being the former champ." The pop for Christian was great. In addition, I like Jeff Jarrett as the top heel. Despite most people's opinion of JJ, I really like him more and more. I wouldn't mind him getting the strap back , just not now. Let Christian hold it, and he fueds with Abyss, and then maybe Steiner.
Dennis H, I value your opinion about Impact and TNA, however, Swarm's right. I read in the SNME post that you turned it off before even getting through the Edge promo. I don't always agree with Swarm about his negative posts on the TNA threads, but you kinda set yourself up for that one.

Steiner was great and I have one major gripe with TNA and that is some of the fans in the IMpact Zone, man they annoy me greatly. I mean it is great to be into the show but man, it would be nice to hear what Steiner and others have to say in there.
I mean the WWE fans seem to have a better sense of when to cheer or boo and be apart of the show. The Impact Zone fans seem to almost distract from the show. Maybe it is the size of the "arena" they are in?

I agree. Impact Zone fans are way more annoying than Jeff Jarrett could ever be. When I was still watching Impact I remember many times where I was having to listen closely to what the wrestlers were trying to say because the fans were trying to put themselves over.
WWE fans seem to be a generally more intelligent audience. I use the term "intelligent" loosely, but compared to the Impact Zone fans they're Einsteins. Impact Zone fans really detract from the product by completely ignoring the angles and acting like they really don't care what's going on beyond starting up the next chant.

I saw the replay tonight and I must say that it was probably my favorite episode yet (of the scattered ones I've seen).
Steiner's promo was so-so, but you gotta give the guy the benefit of the doubt. He probably hasn't been in front of a crowd in awhile. I thought he was still really funny, as some of his lines are hilarious.
I lose more respect for Larry Zbyszko every time I see him. He was great in WCW, but doesn't play his GM role well at all.
The 8-man tag was awesome. Lots of great action and spots. Good idea with Moore doing the job too.
Overall, I was very impressed with the show.

Well I am sure the annoying fans don't help with their annoying chants when someone is trying to do an interview.
