From what I have seen it's one of TNA's best shows of the year, but you may not think so by watching the first match.

Wow... talk about a TERRIBLE PPV. I just sat down and watched the entire thing. I will give credit to the ladder match and the X-Division title match. THAT is where my complements end though. TNA is the worst wrestling promotion to get PPV rights. My first complaint is the audible content of TNA. The commentators are too loud, the ring is too quiet and the fans are too stupid. Combined, those 3 things bring down the great, fast-paced action of TNA. My main complaint, though, is how tragic they've handled Booker T. They managed to sign thee Booker T and they completely ruined it with that main event. 1) Booker T wasn't involved in the finish or was even visible on camera for the end of the main event. 2) Christian Cage stared down the champion at the end of the show, despite the fact he lost a number 1 contenders match earlier on in the show and you had new superstar Booker T lying on the floor. They built Booker T up, hyped him all night on the show... and yet they blew it with him. Shocking. Great critique. I welcome criticism like that. (y) It was shocking I must admit, it basically craps all over Kaz's victory.

I actually enjoyed it to be honest. I had no interest in Abyss/Reign or the Knockout's match. The drinking angle did make me laugh though with their version of the spinner title! MCMG's vs. Team 3D was a solid tag match, I thought the Duds did a great job playing the heels & Sabin & Shelley looked impressive and got a surprising win. The X-Division match was solid & the tag titles match was OK. I found the Roode/Joe match to be a bit slow & boring for the most part until Joe made a spirited comeback however the comentators sh*t all over that by focusing on Tracey being out on the floor making the wrestling imnside seem insignificant. The ladder match was impressive and again I was stunned at the resultl, I'm sure most people expected Christian to go over here. The main event again was OK. Booker wasn't a huge surprise as had been l;eaked online in week prior, unlike the great job TNA did keeping Angle a surprise. Nash didn't break his leg which was nice and the action was passable if nothing special. Surely the end and focusing on Christian though was about how it appeared AJ & Tomko had defected & joined with Angle so it made sense but yeah should have been more focus on Booker T. I'd imagine the nex PPV is Nash vs. Angle & Booker T/Sting vs. AJ & Tomko?? Great to see TNA giving the win to Kaz & MCMG but where was LAX, where was XXX? However unlike a few others here I enjoyed it & thought it was one of TNA's better shows of the year.

Hmmm not a bad PPV by any standards - but yeah - a shame Booker T's debut was overshadowed. It was quite predictable about Kurt angle winning the title and I hope christian and AJ go at it! - seems they can't stand each other.

However unlike a few others here I enjoyed it & thought it was one of TNA's better shows of the year. I aswell think that Team 3D and Motor City Machine Guns was one of the best tag matches I've seen. Lethal and Sonjay stole the show for me, I've always been impressed with their work and hopefully this will give Sonjay a run with the belt. I wish Sting would of won the belt again, but it was predictable to be fair, suprised Nash kept up with everyone else too. I can't believe either that Kaz won the match, I was like "not a cat's chance in hell" but I was caught by suprise. I hope Tomko and Styles stay away from Christian Cage, Cage has never needed them, it was only Tomko that needed this otherwise he'd get no reaction whatsoever. The drinking angle made me laugh tons aswell. Black Reign vs Abyss wasn't great, and that new guy debuting I wonder who the hell he is , mind I've never liked Black Reign. I thought Joe vs Roode could of been much better than what it was, some parts were slow and boring, Samoa Joe is starting to have the same match over and over again which isn't good. Great PPV, don't get me wrong. Senshi and Skipper were working in Japan, so TNA saw no use in just booking Daniels, hence their absence.

"CANUDIGITSUCKA" I'm sorry but that was naff. The ladder match was pg, but the whole Booker T thing was so poorly pulled off. I really do not know how people can honestly say TNA beats WWE. It's a shocking company who fill the back to the rafters with ex WWE talent and they just have them floating around in the mid card. Pathetic.
