My Thoughts on TNA Impact for Dec 17th 2009

Originally posted on my blog Andrew and the Aluminumsidings on Dec 18th 2009

Nice, iTunes Canada had it ready this morning.


We open with Foley tearing up an empty studio trying to beat up Nash. I think he did more damage to himself and the studio. All because he was sent to the wrong house. Um what the hell are you all doing? That was one of the worst gimmicks yet.

Abyss's promo was very good, hinting at what many of us did not get to see last week. I know there was a hardcore match that could not air on the network.

Brother Ray vs Matt Morgan in a lumberjack match. I can't call him the evil druid any more cause he actually got rid of the bad robe. Yay. Brother Ray started off looking strong in this with a series of forearms to the back and shoulders of Morgan. Morgan turned it around with a headbutt. He then got Ray backed into the corner for his trademark elbows then used a sidewalk slam for a near fall. Brother Ray then used a backdrop suplex on Morgan gaining a bit of control. Morgan got tossed out of the ring where upon Team 3D lumberjacks started their beatdown. Morgan got back into the ring where upon Brother Ray started in with a series of chops, but to no use. Morgan used a closeline on him just before Brother Ray rolled out of the ring to be beatdown by Morgan's lumberjacks. Morgan was about to go for his elevation suplex but Neal ducked in the ring for a low blow. This gave Brother Ray a chance to use a DDT for the win.

So the list for this weekends feast or fired line up includes half of World Elite. Eric Young better not loose! TNA would not be TNA without Young. Also The show will not be on next week (Dec 24th) but will return in two weeks for a special 4 hour episode on Dec 31st

The return of Jeff Jarrett. Very very cool. Too bad he had on a hat for a bad vampire movie. What is it with the men on this show and picking crappy vampire movies to talk about? Millions of vampire movies and .....

Jay Lethal vs Tatanka in another legend's challenge. I like Lethal I just hate the gimmick and the moo-moo. Lethal started off looking good with a series of punches but Tatanka used a short closeline knocking Lethal to the mat. He then used about 4 leg drops on Lethal. Lethal did manage to get a large set of knees to the back of Tatanka knocking him down before using a double sledge hammer off the top rope. Tatanka then sent Lethal flying with a brutal looking back body drop. He then used a death drop for the win. I am not sure what the point of this series is, if it is to present the legends for the upcoming show on Jan 4th? Or if it's to soon phase out this gimmick for Lethal? But you know, I did not ever think I would see Jay Lethal being the jobber in a match two in a row.

Daniels vs Wolfe. Wolfe went for his full nelson then turned it into a side headlock (I know it was not a side headlock but I missed what it was really called). Daniels got out of it only to have Wolfe slap it on again, twice. Daniels tried a rollthrough but Wolfe did not let go of the hold. Wolfe then used his knee to the shoulder of Daniels before tossing him across the ring. Daniels managed to get a side head lock of his own on Wolfe then got Wolfe down on the mat. I like that the crowd was split half chanting for Daniels half for Wolfe. Daniels got a wrist lock on Wolfe, and as Wolfe went for a roll to get out of it, Daniels hooked the leg for a near fall. Wolfe kicked out then used an upper cut. This then turned into a slap fest, before Daniels drove a flying knee into Wolfe's jaw. Daniels then used a top rope spring board for another near fall. Wolfe then used a flying hammerlock take down (FHD) for a near fall. Wolfe slapped a combo figure four armbar and cross face on Daniels but Daniels bit Wolfe's hand breaking the hold. This match hit it's ten minute time limit and was a draw.

Raven/Stevie/Steiner/British Invasion vs Styles/Angle/Tomko/Abyss/Lashley. Abyss pushed his team out of the way and hobbled in going right for Raven and Stevie. He sent them out of the ring with a large forearm then Raven bit Abyss's burned leg. Everyone else just kind of stood there for a minute. Steiner sent Lashley out of the ring, sending him from one guardrail to the other. This was not a match as much as pure chaos. The bell finally rang and we are in the ring with Brutus and Angle. Angle suplexed Brutus then tagged in the returning Tomko. Doug Williams tagged in only to get a boot to the shoulder from Tomko then got a large slam before Angle blind tagged himself back in. Brutus tagged back in as well and they double teamed Angle with the same necktie move they have been using as of late. Back and forth for a few minutes between the ring and the now street fight with Raven and the others before seeing Williams get suplexed once more by Angle. Then Big Useless ripped Tomko off the apron hard on to the floor breaking his nose by the looks of it. Styles finally tagged in, using closelines on Williams and Brutus. Styles got a roll up on Brutus for the win.

And the MotorCityMachine Guns! promo was .... um er boys.... I notice, I care, I still think you need to do something about your hair and your pants Mr. Sabin. Not changing for anyone... that sounds like a reply to something, maybe Chris Sabin really is reading this? We'll talk. And what was with Alex Shelley's floppy arm thingie can he not sit still?

Monday Night RAW results 12/14/2009

Previously posted on my blog here


Here's the breakdown from last night it was alot in it's three hour stint and was hosted by Dennis Miller.

Chris Jericho and Big Show won a slammy for tag team, then they challenged DX for their rematch via the claus when this match began Triple H deliberatly knocked over the ref which ended the match and had Jericho escorted from RAW. Since it was a disqualification the Big Show and Jericho won but not the titles, so technically there will be no rematch for the gold at the moment.

To determine Superstar of the year four men battled in various matches for this. First it was CM Punk versus John Cena which ended very easily with Cena winning via a countout. Then it was Undertaker versus Randy Orton. Orton who wasn't fairing well against the deadman had his henchmen more commonly known as Legacy beat down the Undertaker outside the ring while Orton managed to climb in the ring before a countout ended.

Then Cena and Orton battled, the battle of all battles and it was alot of wear down on both men. Cena swore he wouldn't loose til he had the belt back. Cena defeated Orton. As Cena caught his breath, new WWE Champion Sheamus stared him down from outside the ring.

William Regal and his round table called out Christian to pick two men to try to defeat them if there were any. Christian not in the best of health called on two men who put aside their differences for one night to destroy the round table. Kane and The Great Khali. The matched ended by pinfall and Christian's team was victorious. Which led to finding out that Kane would be gracing ECW tonight.



Sheamus won a slammy for breakout star of the year. He came out happy he won. Made a speech about how now Cena will have to take him seriously. (On a side note, how come it is that Sheamus is getting the push when people like Lance Archer, Evan Bourne, Jack Swagger, seem like they are low in arena so to speak. What makes Sheamus so great? Anyone dare to answer this call out go right ahead.)

Next match was Kofi Kingston versus Cody Rhodes which quickly turned into Legacy beating on Kingston which made Bourne jump in to make it a fair fight. Per stipulation by the GM Miller, the match got turned into a tag team match. Legacy won by pinfall to Bourne.


CM Punk got a slammy for Shocker of the Year by retiring Jeff Hardy. CM Punk ws very happy and stated CM Punk described retiring Jeff Hardy after their Steel Cage Match on SmackDown as his finest moment.

Shawn Michaels won the Slammy Award for Match of the Year. The match was him versus Undertaker at Wrestlemania, to which he challenged Undertaker for this wrestlemania. It was a great call out.

Bob Barker won for guest host of the year. He thanked them via televiewer.

Most Extreme Moment of the Year was awarded to Jeff Hardy when he stood 20 feet tall and delivered a swanton bomb to CM Punk at Summer Slam. Accepting on behalf was Matt Hardy who got a beat down by Carlito who started an acceptance speech like he won and Masters then put him in the Master lock and when Carlito was flung Masters grabbed the slammy and gave it back to Hardy asking if he was ok.

McIntyre joined United States Champion The Miz & Zack Ryder against Morrison, Mark Henry & Yoshi Tatsu. While the championships were on one side, determination tipped the balance as Tatsu leveled Ryder for the victory.

Mickie James won a 7 on 7 Diva match, while the girls were all dolled up in evening wear, they had a fight where it was Mickie James against Rosa. Mickie James was quick to get the pinfall on Rosa. Which sent the loosing team about to leave when Golddust and MVP came out to announce the Diva of the year who was non other than Maria who was very shocked and happy.

She was interrupted by Batista who wanted to announce the slammy for screw of the year, him last night by Long at the pay per view. He was escorted out by security.

Next up was "Oh my" moment of the year. If you didn't know who Cole was prior to this you will definitely know him now. Michael Cole vomiting on Chris Jericho at SmackDown’s 10th Anniversary took home the Slammy Award for “Oh My” Moment of the Year.

It was announced that next week Johnny Damon will attempt to knock it out of the park next week when he stops by Raw to serve as special guest host.

Smackdown Results :12/11 /09

I forgot we had made these since no one has used them in months.

Batista came out to talk about why he has gone heel. Slamming the fans to add the extra jolt to he's heel turn.

First match was a tag team match with CM Punk/Luke Gallows vs R-Truth/Matt Hardy. Gallows and Truth started off. Gallows had Truth in the corner with a series of forearms, Punk tagged in using an irish whip only to get a closeline from Truth. Hardy got into the ring and they double teamed Truth with a double arm drag. Hardy went for a near fall. Another quick tag for Truth, but Punk got things back into his favour with what started off as a suplex but turned into just bouncing Truth off the top rope. Gallows tagged in stomping on Truth before using a gut buster. Punk tagged back in with a scoop slam on Truth. Hardy tagged back in with a series of flying forearms on Punk. He had Punk in the corner with a slam and got a near fall before dropping the leg from the top rope. There was a blind tag that brought Gallows back into the match and he used the gallows poll (?) for the win.

Second match Escobar vs Jericho. Escobar looked like he had this match wrapped up from the beginning, stomping on Jericho in the corner, then going for a quick near fall. Jericho was tossed out of the ring, and Vickie came down to change the rules of the match making it a handy cap match as the Big Show came to the ring. Jericho got back in the ring just in time to tag in Show, who destroyed Escobar with a drop kick, tagging back in Jericho who used the walls of Jericho for the win.

Third match Kane vs Mike Knox. Knox started this off with a few kicks and a series of forearms to Kane. Kane turned it around with a large boot. Knox rolled out of the ring only to be pulled back in as Kane tried a choke slam but Knox sent a boot of his own to Kane. This went back and forth for a few minutes before Knox got Kane to the mat, but failed to get the splash. Kane got a near fall before trying a sidewalk slam. Knox kicked out, and tried a cross body of his own. Kane did use the choke slam for the win seeming out of nowhere.

Fourth match was a Diva's tag team match. Mickie James/Maria vs McCool/Layla. Maria and McCool started. Maria used two deep arm drags on McCool before kicking her to the face. But McCool turned it in her favour with a title-a-whirl slam. Maria used a hurricanrana on McCool then tagged in Mickie at the sametime Layla tagged in. Mickie tossed her across the ring by the hair. Layla tried to spear Mickie but missed. Mickie used a roll up for the win.

Fifth match Rey Mysterio vs Batista. Mysterio started it off with a series of kicks but Batista got a hard looking closeline on him. He tossed Mysterio from one end of the ring to the other, both times Mysterio hit the ring post enough that it shifted the ring. He got a near fall before trying to crush Mysterio's skull under his knee. Mysterio finally turned it around going for the knees of Batista catching him off guard. Then got him ready for a 619 but it turned into a game of sliding out of the ring for a few minutes before Mysterio used a baseball slide on him. Batista got him wrapped around the ring post in a bow and arrow before using a cable to whip him. He slammed him around a few minutes on the floor before tossing him back into the ring using a camel clutch on Mysterio. Somehow Mysterio had enough energy to use a drop toe hold on Batista sending him face first into a steel chair. Set him for another 619, getting a near fall. Batista speared Mysterio then used a Batista bomb before a chair shot for the win.

The TLC pay-per-view will be this weekend, and Monday's RAW is a 3hour special that starts an hour early.

My Thoughts on TNA Impact for Dec 10th 2009

Originally posted on my blog Andrew and the Aluminumsidings on Dec 11 2009

iTunes Canada had it for download late again. Dude, this is killing me.

Kevin Nash was running the show. Interesting idea. Um... So he came to the ring with Eric Young. I'm listening to this line up of matches that Nash has in store for the night and I am rolling my eyes at it. Dude, I know the holidays are here, and you want to end the year's wrestling season on a fun light note, but I can see nothing good coming of this line up. I mean putting Eric Young in a match for his Global Belt against a Knock Out? Haven't we gone through that craziness enough with the whole Deaner having the Knock Out title storyline.

The recap of the news heard around the world, Jan 4th 2010 will have a 3 hour special that will be starting the Monday Night Wars. All the fans are a buzz with it, we at Blind Tag Blog had a small note on it this past week as well.

Lashleys vs Steiner/Kong in a mixed tag match. there's a shocker for ya. Steiner and Lashley started. Lashley slammed Steiner in the middle of the ring. Then Steiner ducked out of the ring before landing a few chops across Lashley's chest. Lashley turned it around by giving him a shoulder breaker then a suplex. Lashley went for an off the ropes move but Kong grabbed his legs knocking him to the mat. Kong kept trying to get tagged in but Steiner just ended up giving Lashley a closeline. Lashley turned it around again giving Steiner a tbone suplex. Crystal tagged herself in and got a scoop slam by Kong before Steiner covered her for a lazy pin. Kong was not happy.

Eric Young's promo was good. He just needs to stay away from the self tanner. Looking a little on the orange side there bud. You're Canadian, you should be pale and chalk white. Okay, now you know I have a rule about not writing about the women's division. But, since there was already one mixed match, and this for whatever reason happened .... Eric Young went up against Hamada in an intergender match. This is one of the only women wrestlers I ever bother to watch. This started with a collar tie up as Eric Young pushed her into the corner. Hamada got out of it and gave him a stiff spin kick to the jaw knocking him out of the ring. She followed it up with a series of head butts and chops to him. Getting back into the ring, Young turned it in his favour with a boot to the face. Hamada used a snap hurricanrana for a near fall. She then slammed him like he was a feather. Rolling out of the way of a moonsault, Young used the ropes for a pin... I mean I saw nothing but the win.

Team 3D/Rhino/Jesse Neal vs Suicide/Matt Morgan/Hernandez .... and Jesse Neal stole the Pope's trenchcoat. Dude, that was the trenchcoat I was waiting for someone to snag for me.... in a handy cap match. Rhino and Morgan started this. And right off, Morgan had Rhino in the corner for his series of elbows. Quick tag in by Brother Devon who got floored by another series of elbows and forearms by Morgan. Suicide tagged as did Brother Ray, in with an attempt on an arm drag. Suicide landed two deep hip tosses then a drop kick on Brother Ray. He was going for another top rope move but got pushed off onto the floor by Neal. He got back into the ring and went right into a boot from Brother Ray. Neal tagged in with a series of fists to the gut of Suicide. Rhino tagged in goring Suicide in the corner. Hernandez tagged in with a flying shoulder for Neal. He got a near fall with a very hard slam before everyone started to run into the ring causing chaos. Neal gored Hernandez for the win.

It was good to see Jay Lethal back again, even if it was only for a minute. But dude, the moo-moo has to go. Seriously.

A.J. Styles vs Wolfe in an "I paid for a title shot" match. Styles pushed Wolfe into the corner, as Wolfe hung onto the ropes. Wolfe then slapped a full nelson on Styles. He then turned it into a wristlock. He managed to keep this hold on Styles even as Styles got him up into a slam. This went on for a few minutes before Styles landed one of his double drop kicks on Wolfe. He went back to work on Styles' arm, adding a semi-bulldog sending Styles face first to the mat. Styles managed to get it back around to his favour with a backbreaker then his trademark spring board flying closeline. Wolfe then got him with a low blow but Styles got the roll up for the win.


And the MotorCityMachine Guns! Chris Sabin in a singles match against all three members of British Invasion. Yeah it was a handy cap match. And banned Alex Shelley from ring side. I am going through withdrawls you realize that right? Doug Williams started this, getting Sabin in a wristlock. Sabin got out of it, and did a beauty of a leap frog over Williams. Sabin got thrown into the ropes, where Brutus kneed him in the back, but Sabin turned around and used a baseball slide to knock Brutus off the ring apron. And tossed Williams out of the ring. Then Big Rob the Useless got in and closedlined Sabin. Is Sabin okay? Doug Williams got back into the ring with a knee to Sabin's jaw and a forearm. The crowd chanting this sucks. Brutus tagged in, first legal tag of the match, and they double teamed Sabin with a cross necktie. Williams tagged right back in, with a boot to the face for Sabin. Dude is Sabin okay? Another quick tag as Big Rob the Useless got into the ring dragging Sabin around by the shaggy mess he calls a hair do. (our Hair Gel King knows I love him.) the crowd screaming you can't wrestle. For once I agree with the crowd Big Useless can not wrestle. He slammed Sabin from a near 7 foot drop. Is Sabin okay? I forgot, Sabin is part monkey and was able to get up and shake it off before attacking Big Useless with a flying forearm then a boot to the face. All three of the Brits were now in the ring, Sabin going to the top rope for a double drop kick on Brutus and Williams. Somehow Sabin managed to get a tornado in the corner on Big Useless Rob Terry for the win. The moved sort of looked like a sideways version of Alex Shelley's sliced bread. then Alex Shelley came down the ramp to collect what was left of Sabin.
