Taken from 2/23 Observer notes on TalkImpact.com
The Destination X show on 3/15 in Orlando looks to be headlined by Sting vs. Kurt Angle for the TNA title and based on Main Event Mafia interference two straight weeks on TV, you figure the stips will be along the lines of something where the Mafia can’t interfere. There will be an Ultimate X match with Sabin, Shelley, Jay Lethal and Consequences Creed, and there may be one or two people added in. Booker T vs. A.J. Styles for the Legends title and Samoa Joe vs. Scott Steiner are pretty much locked. Matt Morgan vs. Abyss with stips is likely. That would seem to leave, just based on a process of elimination, Beer Money vs. Team 3-D. We’re told there is a plan to start a program between those two teams, but it’s not a lock it’ll be on this PPV. There will probably be a trios match with The Beautiful People and a partner against Taylor Wilde & Roxxi & Governor Palin. As noted before, TNA has become like WWE. Before, they would have the entire card, and the stips, for the next show in place even before the previous PPV would take place, which makes sense because you can start building on the PPV and the first round of TV’s. Now, they do have the top 2-3 matches or so in place, but they don’t really worry about the undercard until doing the final TV’s. They will be doing three weeks worth of taping on 2/23 and 2/24, so there was no timing necessity to get the whole card done until that time.
So that would be
TNA Title Match (with a MEM being barred from the match stip?)
Sting (C) vs. Kurt Angle
Ultimate X (Assumed to be for the X title)
Alex Shelley vs. Chris Sabin vs. Jay Lethal vs. Consequences Creed (maybe Homicide & Hernandez to be the other two if they do add two more?)
TNA Legends Title
Booker T (C) vs. AJ Styles
TNA Tag Team Titles
Beer Money (C) vs. Team 3D
________ Match
Abyss vs. Matt Morgan
Samoa Joe vs. Scott Steiner
The Beautiful People & ? (Mickie Knuckles?) vs. Roxxi, Taylor Wilde, and Governor Palin
