Well, they never called this last one a "top contender's match"...the announcers even commented on the PPV that the Naturals have still earned a guaranteed title shot.

Right on TNAWrestling.com the Franchised Naturals get their title shot on iMPACT! I'm not a big Naturals fan, so they lose they lose... I'm liking the LAX versus AMW better!

I hope they lose. Nothing against The Naturals, but LAX (thanks in part to AJ/Daniels) is the best thing in the tag team division.

LAX is definitely the best team in TNA and that is definitely partly because of AJ and Daniels and definitely partly because of Konnan's great mic skills. LAX and The Naturals should put on a good match but LAX will definitely win.

Yeah, it's a perfect old school combination. You have a manager (Konnan) doing all the talking, while Hernandez and Homicide tear it up in the ring. And established stars (AJ and Daniels) giving them the rub.

I really agree that Konan has stepped up his game in his new role.
Love AMW (esp Harris since he is a Kentucky boy) and Styles/Daniels, but The Naturals have always seemed to be missing "it".

Gotta agree. The Naturals don't have that "it" factor that will make them big stars but they are a great team to be kind of a middle card tag team if you will. They can get title shots and lose to make champs look better and help to build other teams up to get title shots but I really don't see them going much further than that. Neither will ever be a singles star either. Unfortunate to say but true. But hey, not everyone can be "it".

All in all, I think the only disappointing thing about BfG was Tracy Brooks being Roode’s manager. Big “Whatever” moment there. Well, who did you expect him to choose to represent him..? An American..? ;D |

I agree about the Naturals, they have been champions in the past but I think those days are done for them at this time. Even with Shane Douglas, the Franchised Naturals don't have the "iT" factor.

I don't understand how LAX can be starting a feud with AMW, when Naturals have a title shot, Team 3D won a top contender match and they have to have a rematch with Styles/Daniels. Still its better than the WWE tag team scene, where the champs lose twice to the same team and then defend the belts at the PPV vs. someone one of their guys just beat and a non-wrestler.

Well I don't think that four corners match was a #1 contenders match and LAX attacking AMW and Gail Kim started thye feud on iMPACT! and rumor has it a women will be joining LAX and that could add to the LAX / AMW Feud.

Well, Team 3D didn't win a top contenders match...they won a four way match with three other teams. The Naturals are getting their title match, just not on PPV (it was never guaranteed to be a PPV shot, just a title shot), and AJ/Daniels don't HAVE to have a rematch, and even if they get one, it doesn't HAVE to be right away...as wrestling history is FULL of guys who didn't get immediate rematches (often off of longer title reigns, too). AMW, on the other hand, are feuding with LAX because they have a legitimate, in character, personal beef with LAX. |

Which is a nice change of pace. It's also nice that they did a future title shot match and actually give the team a title shot(as those often mysteriously get forgotten)

Well, it seems that the Naturals ARE getting a shot, and the feud with AMW will happen on top of that. I actually like the fact that they're planning beyond the next match. Also, the TM is taking shots at WWE's Tag booking?  Who'da thunk it?!! |

The WWE's tag booking deserves many many shots...

Also, the TM is taking shots at WWE's Tag booking? Who'da thunk it?!! Hey, I have to give props and criticism where its due. TNA tag division is far better than WWE's, in booking and overall quality. Now, I will wait until Thursday's episode of Impact has aired before I go off on TNA on how they set up who gets the title shot at Sting. A steaming pile of Russo crap is in store for you all on Thursday. Also as a WWE-mark, I will say that I didn't mind the Kevin Federline appearances and that he was booked well and performed well in his role. Much better than I could have expected. |

I think Russo will do a better job then most give him credit, TNA in my opinion is heading in the right direction. Yes, they do have some problems that needs work... but other then that I like what I've seen so far and a small spoiler here and there look good too.

Horrible show. Just terrible. I've been to puppet shows that had more action than this PPV...
First off, who the hell runs the camera's in TNA? How many spots did the cameras miss? I mean, really? I know you can't afford any decent wrestlers in their primes, but you'd think they could sign some camera guys who's somewhere near the top of his profession...
maybe Vince has all the good camera guys too...
slow children could have filmed the show better...
as far as the matches go, none of them were any good...
Who did Team 3D eat? hey guys, hang it up. You suck.
Eric Young did defeat Larry Zbyszko in a possible match of the year candidate so at least that was cool...
Fat Elvis won a match he didn't need to be in...nice to see he is at least trying to finally manage his weight, only problem being he's seems to be managing to get fatter...
Way to bury Senshi...one out of like 3 decent guys they have, loses to a dude who is a carbon copy of nearly ever jobber I ever watched on Tuesday Night Titans...
And Sting? LOL!!! Is this guy going through a mid-life crisis or does he just want to look like a total retard? Just retire already...you suck. Wanna know if you're good at wrestling or not? if Vince wants you, you're probably still good...if TNA is the only company on the planet willing to sign your slow and old broken down a**, you suck.
Fortunately, Kurt Angle did not suffer any life threatening an/or ending injuries, which is the only reason I even bought this abortion of a wrestling show, in the event he had, I wanted to have seen it...
overall i give the show a -4 out of 10.
Just sucked. Horrible.
