[/color] On October 27, 2009 it was announced on TNAwrestling.com that Paul Heyman has signed to the company on a full time basis, where he will partner with TNA President Dixie Carter and be given full creative control over the company and will be an on screen character. His first appearance of the company will be on January 7th, 2011 on a live edition of Impact. Paul Heyman is not coming alone however, he is bringing in talent such as Rob Van Dam, Jeff Hardy, Ken Anderson, Austin Aries, Brian Kendrick, Paul London and many more to come.

January 7th, 2010 [/color] " The Regime Begins.. " The opening pyro starts off as everyone knows that tonight is the big night and the debut of Paul Heyman and multiple other acquasitions that he brought with him. Without any waiting, Paul Heyman makes his way down to the ring to a loud pop. He gets in the ring and gets on the mic, but before he can speak the fans start a "Save us Paul" chant. Paul tells the fans that that is indeed what he intends to do. Paul say that he sat back and watched Final Resolution and he feels that it definitely showed him the talent that TNA has to offer. He continues to say that he brought in some talent of his own including Rob Van Dam and Jeff Hardy, who they will see later on tonight. He goes on to talk about how the TNA World Heavyweight Championship match was one of the best matches he's seen in a damn long time and how AJ Styles makes a great World Champion. The crowd chants "AJ" for a couple seconds until Christopher Daniels makes his way down to the ring with a mic in hand. Daniels welcomes Paul into TNA and says that if he enjoyed the match at Final Resolution then he is going to enjoy the rematch that he rightfully deserves at Genesis. Heyman says that it's a new TNA now so Daniels will have to earn his title shot back.. and he can do so tonight, but he must defeat one of TNA's newest aquasitions, Jeff Hardy.. who hasn't arrived yet. Paul then leaves the ring as we go to commercial. [ Commercial Break ][/center][/b] Austin Aries and the Motor City Machine Guns defeated Amazing Red and Lethal ConsequencesA great six man tag match here that really showcased the true talent of TNA and especially the returning Austin Aries, one of the men brought to TNA with Paul Heyman. Highlights of the match included the Machine Guns both nailing suicide dives to different sides of the ring simoultaneously, Amazing Red nailing a huge hurricaranna off the top turnbuckle onto Shelley, and Austin Aries nailing a big moonsault onto Red. The ending came when Jay Lethal and Aries were both in the ring, Lethal went up for the diving elbow drop, but Aries rolled away from it and followed up with a Brainbuster for the pinfall. We go backstage to Christy Hemme who is joined by Samoa Joe. Hemme asks Joe how does it feel to hold a breifcase containing a TNA World Heavyweight Championship Title shot, Joe replies by saying it feels like he's already holding the Championship because he knows how easy it is going to be. Joe says that he's the Samoan Submission Machine for a reason, but before he can say anything else Rob Van Dam walks past the interview set and looks at Joe. Joe and RVD stare down for a bit until RVD gives Joe the signature "Rob. Van. Dam" thumb point, but Joe isn't impressed and nails a cheap shot on RVD and continues the assault. He follows up by delivering a few shots to RVD and then he throws him into the wall of the interview set! Christy Hemme calls for medic's as she screams out and we cut to commercial.
[ Commercial Break ]
A video plays, recapping the match between Christopher Daniels and AJ Styles from Final Resolution Brian Kendrick defeated Suicide and D'Angelo Dinero in a triple threat match. The debuting Brian Kendrick made sure his high flying presence was felt in this match as he went back and forth with both Suicide and Dinero through out the match. Some highlights of the match include Suicide nailing a big front flip over the top rope and onto both Kendrick and Dinero and Dinero nailing a big cross body onto Suicide. The ending came when Suicide nailed the Suicide Solution on Dinero, but Kendrick tossed Suicide out of the ring and pinned Dinero for the 3. We cut backstage to Jeff Hardy coming out of his Lamborghini as the crowd cheers. He is then met by Desmond Wolfe who offers him a handshake, but Hardy blows him off and continues to walk to the lockeroom as the camera zooms in on Wolfe's angry expression. [ Commercial Break ]We return as Kurt Angle makes his way out to the ring and gets on the mic. Angle talks about how Desmond Wolfe took him to the limit at Final Resolution and how he has come full circle in TNA. Angle says that he thinks he should now have an opportunity to challenge for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship due to his win against Desmond Wolfe. He says that a match between him and AJ Styles for the World Title would raise the bar to another level. Before he can continue he is cut off by Eric Young and the rest of World Elite. Angle looks confused as World Elite makes there way to the ramp and into the ring as Young has a mic in his hand. Young tells Angle that if anyone is in line for a title shot it is the man that is running the World... Elite that is. Young continues about how Angle represents America.. and embolishes everything that America is about. Young says that Angle is just like every other American, trying to take advantage of the hard working foreign man. Young says that World Elite is dominating TNA, but Angle just waltzes back in and expects a World Title shot upon his return, he continues by saying that World Elite has yet to have there 'moment' and what better night to have a 'moment' then the night that Paul Heyman joins TNA. Angle looks around as all of World Elite surround him and begin to attack him with punches and stomps. Each member of World Elite aside from Eric Young then lift Angle up and throw him into Young who nails a Death Valley Driver on Angle. All members stand over Angle's down body with there hands held high as we go to commercial. [ Commercial Break ]We return to the backstage area where Christy Hemme is joined by The Fallen Angel, Christopher Daniels. Hemme asks Daniels what he thinks about facing Jeff Hardy tonight, Daniels responds by saying that he knows he can beat Jeff Hardy. Just like he knows he can beat AJ Styles, just like he will beat AJ Styles. Daniels says that there will be a revolt, a revolt of tired souls that have been overlooked because of AJ Styles, and it's going to rain all over AJ Styles' championship reign parade. and ODB defeated The Beautiful People w/Lacey Von ErichNearly 3 weeks past there Knockouts Championship match bitter rivals, Tara and ODB were forced to team up in this one and take on The Beautiful People. The Beautiful People never really proved to be a factor here as ODB was still upset about losing her Knockouts Championship to Tara and she was on a tear. The ending came when ODB nailed a Running Powerslam to Rayne to get the pinfall. After the match, ODB announced she would be using her rematch clause at Genesis [ Commercial Break ][/color] A video plays hyping Mr. Anderson. It shows a microphone falling down as Anderson takes it and shouts out his name. The words "Coming Soon" are shown at the bottom of the screen.[/center] Christopher Daniels defeated Jeff Hardy to get another shot at the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at Genesis. A fantastic match that showed the in ring return of Jeff Hardy against the hopeful World Championship contender Christopher Daniels. Hardy and Daniels battled back and forth with high-fying onslaut on each other until Hardy nailed the Twist of Fate and went up to the top rope for the Swanton Bomb, but Daniels grabbed the refferee's shirt and pretended to be injured while Desmond Wolfe grabbed Hardy's leg and pulled his groin into the turnbuckle. Daniels then quickly took advantage by nailing the Angels Wings to get the 3 count. After the match, Wolfe and Daniels beat down Hardy as Wolfe yelled out "Nobody disrespects Desmond Wolfe! Nobody!" until AJ Styles runs down the ramp way and chases both Daniels and Wolfe away. Styles then helps Hardy up as they both stare down at Wolfe and Daniels. We go backstage to Paul Heyman's office for the final moments of Impact as he announces that Spike and TNA Wrestling have came to terms that from now on, every Impact wil be Live on Thursdays at 9 PM EST!

Definitely a great way to open up the show introducing Heyman. Daniels coming out and wanting a rematch is good. His match with Hardy should be fantastic. Aries returning is nice and him and the Guns going over there is a nice way to get him over. Joe taking out RVD is good and it sets up for a good feud. Kendrick going over Pope and Suicide is nice as well, wonder how you'll use him. He should be used good. World Elite taking out Angle interests me, and I look forward to this storyline. Tara and ODB beating the Beautiful People is good. Mr. Anderson coming to TNA sound well, wonder when he'll debut. Daniels going over Hardy is great, and it sounded like a excellent match. Wolfe and Daniels taking out Hardy is good and Styles coming for the save is nice. Overall, nice show with a few debuts.

I’ll assume the show is in Orlando, thus I doubt the fans would be chanting “save us Paul” because those fans are marks for everything. The lack of build up for debuts of RVD and Hardy is just like TNA. I’d save that for a pay per view or something… drag it out a little bit. The opener would be a great start to the new TNA and the right guys went over. Well, RVD is beaten up in his first appearance in TNA. Seems kind of odd booking to bring someone in like RVD and have him destroyed. I’m not huge on Kendrick, so I hope you can build him up. Wolfe vs. Hardy could be an interesting feud. I greatly enjoyed the segment with EY and Angle. I especially love EY in a serious role and feud with Angle. I’m really pumped to read about that. Should’ve hyped up RVD and Hardy like you are doing for Anderson. The main event surprised me, though it sets up Hardy vs. Wolfe which is fine. I just think fans would be disappointed with two huge stars looking foolish or losing in their debuts. It was a fine start with loads of talented guys. Good luck!

The reason for the cluttered debuts of Jeff Hardy and Rob Van Dam is because Paul Heyman wants to get good buy rates for upcoming Pay Per View, Genesis.
With Genesis only being a week or so away and with such little time for build, it has been announced on TNAWrestling.com that Rob Van Dam will have his official TNA Debut at Genesis taking on Samoa Joe and that Jeff Hardy will go One on One with Desmond Wolfe.
Paul Heyman had an angle planned to close Genesis, but it seems he is going to push it back due to lack of time to build the angle up.
All in all, Heyman believes he can change the face TNA. He was quoted in an interview today saying "After Genesis is when it's really going to pick up, I came here(TNA) 2 weeks before Genesis so I really have to rush things to build this Pay Per View up"[/font] |

Good first show. Definitely liked Heyman being introduced at the beginning, but as mentioned above, the debuts of both RVD and Jeff Hardy were brought in too quickly for my liking.. Not enough time to let them build hype.
AJ vs. Daniels @ Genesis should be good, I'm looking forward to that match.. Hopefully AJ retains. I don't really like Daniels as the TNA Champion.
So far, the Genesis card looks good and I can't wait to see what you do with the product. Keep up the good work.

I do like that you started with Paul Heyman cutting a promo, but I don't know whether I can buy Daniels as a credible threat against Jeff Hardy. Especially with Hardy's summer of 09, which I see as his career peak, and Daniels losing to AJ on PPV, I don't see why he'd just get another shot. Not sold on the match layout, don't particularly like it being to one side. Aries going over with the Guns is the best move, since he's the new talent. Don't like RVD debuting and getting his ass kicked by Joe; bad booking there really. Though him inevitably working a program with Joe should make for an entertaining little feud. Kendrick going over is good, gets a new talent over, do like that it was against frequent rivals Suicide and Pope. Pope better be pushed in this as well. That little segment with Wolfe, made it too obvious which way the main event situation was gonna swing to me. I just see Desmond costing Jeff the match against Daniels. I like the World Elite vs. Angle feud, could be good, don't know whether Young can appear credible against Angle on his own though. Tara and ODB over TBP is good, like that ODB's cashing in her rematch clause at Genesis. Expected outcome that I predicted earlier on, not bad booking really, just a little safe. You seem to have rushed the build for Genesis quite a lot, but that's understandable with the PPV two weeks away and a new load of talent being introduced. Good show, did the job of building the PPV, but there's room for improvement imo, though I expect to see that Post Genesis.
