First off, that opening match was godly. I liked Kaz getting the win, as he's my personal favourite out of everyone in that match. I hope he gets an X-Division Championship shot down the line. I'm not a big fan of Killings, so Lynn going over is good stuff. I'm wondering who this masked man is. Can't wait to find out who it is.
D'Lo not getting the number one contendership was expected as he had his shot, and Raven getting the win was great. Jarrett/Raven should be good.
Keep up the good work, man!

TNA: 23rd April 2003
Prior to the event getting started Mike Tenay announced that tonight’s Ten Man Tag Main Event would be held under no disqualification rules, and that whoever gets the pin or submission will become the number one contender to the NWA World Heavyweight title, and will challenge either Jeff Jarrett or Raven.
Bryan Danielson Def. Chase Stevens A decent way to kick off the pay per view, which saw the debut of the ‘American Dragon’ Bryan Danielson. Danielson was working as a face here, and the crowd got behind the young star early on. Danielson made short work of Stevens, putting him away with the Dragon Suplex.
TNA cut to the S.E.X dressing room, containing Glenn Gilberti, Triple X, The Harris Brothers and Ron Killings. Gilberti gave a short motivational speech, claiming that by the end of the night everyone will know that Sports Entertainment Extreme is taking over TNA.
Sonny Siaki W/ Desire Def. Jorge Estrada This was a solid match that was pretty back and forth. The two X-Division stars put on an exciting match, with both men hitting some great high flying moves. Estrada made a mistake mid way through the match when he missed the All Shook Up, and Siaki quickly took control of the match, soon hitting the Siakalypse for the win.
Kid Kash & Mike Awesome Def. Jerry Lynn & Frankie Kazarian via DQ This was a solid tag team match that really allowed Kazarian the chance to learn from one of the best in Jerry Lynn. Kid Kash looked paranoid during this match, and kept looking around for the masked man from last week. Mike Awesome was certainly impressive, and really held his own against the speed of Lynn and Kazarian. Awesome looked to have the match won when he connected with the Awesome Bomb on Kazarian, but Kash had other ideas, telling Awesome to grab a steel chair. Before anything could happen the masked man made the save, taking Awesome out with a Roaring Elbow, causing Kash to escape up the ramp.
Post match Kid Kash challenged the masked man to unmask next week and take him on one on one. Lynn accepted the challenge.
TNA cut to Jeff Jarrett backstage. Jarrett cut a promo on his NWA World Championship defense against Raven next week. Jarrett promised that he would prove that Raven is no match for him by destroying Steve Corino later tonight.
Ron Killings W/ Glenn Gilberti Def. AJ Styles These two put on one of the best matches in recent months. The opening of the match saw a series of reversals and counters that really got the crowd into the match. Killings took control by countering a crossbody with a dropkick. Killings used his athletic moves to keep up with Styles speed advantage. Styles quickly fought back, nearly getting the win after he connected with the Spiral Tap. The match continued back and forth, before Gilberti got up on the apron. Styles nailed him with a dropkick, but turned straight into the Truth or Consequences, followed by the pinfall.
TNA cut to a locker room with the name ‘TNA’ on the door. Inside America’s Most Wanted, The Sandman, Perry Saturn and New Jack were getting ready for the main event. Storm and Sandman were drinking beers when Harris walked up to them, looked at Storm and said “Dude”. Storm offered him a bottle, which Harris took and shouted “To TNA”.
Jeff Jarrett Def. Steve Corino A good brawl based match that didn’t last too long. Jarrett and Corino went at it from the start, and the match was mostly a brawl. Corino looked solid in the ring, but Jarrett held the match together, and got the win by lasting Corino with the NWA World title when the referee was down, and quickly followed up with the Stroke. After the match the lights went out, and when they came back on Raven was standing over Jarrett, who was laid out in the middle of the ring.
A video package aired hyping the rivalry between S.E.X and TNA.
No Disqualification Ten Man Tag – Whoever gets the pin or submission gains an NWA World Heavyweight Championship Match America’s Most Wanted, The Sandman, Perry Saturn & New Jack Def. Triple X & The Harris Brothers This was not a wrestling match, but simply a massive fight. All four men went at it right from the beginning, and all showed that they can inflict pain. Low Ki and Storm were the original legal men, but it quickly descended into a fight involving all ten men. Saturn was taken out after being hit by a H-Bomb by the Harris Brothers on the ramp way. New Jack took himself and both Harris Brothers out by placing both Harris Brothers on two tables and throwing himself through them. The Sandman blasted Skipper with a beer bottle, but was then hit by the Angels Wings. James storm and Low Ki were brawling in the crowd, allowing Chris Harris to hit the Catatonic on Christopher Daniels both for the win, and the chance at the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.
As the event went off the air the entire medical team ran to the ring to check on all the men, while Chris Harris celebrated gaining the NWA World Championship match. The camera’s then cut to Low Ki and James Storm in the stands. Storm blasted Low Ki with a superkick, causing Low Ki to fall down a flight of stairs! People rushed to Low Ki’s aid as Storm sat on the stairs, and took a swig out of a fans beer bottle.

Damn! Harris has a title shot! Give me Moore lol. The main event was awsome. I like Dragon winning. Push Corniro for the title. Kash and Awsome should be pushed to the tag titles.

My favorite TNA era's. Nice to see you bringing this back. American Dragon on the show was pretty cool, althought he wasn't that good in '03 imo. Main Event looked stacked as hell. AMW winning was alright but would have prefered another team winning it tbh.

Joel and Jose Maximo for Tag champs! Interesting that Bryan Danielson is coming in. Another good match with Siaki and Jorge. Good tag bout, great that Mike Awesome is in there. Decent bout with Killings winning. Good match, interesting with Corino in TNA. And a great tag match.

Danielson debuting was cool, I'd like to see him get a decent push. Siaki getting a win is awesome, I always liked Siaki. The Kid Kash/Mike Awesome vs. Frankie Kazarian/Jerry Lynn would be a really awesome tag team bout, and this mystery man really has me intrigued. Can't wait to see who it is. I would also like to see a Corino/Jarrett feud down the road. Harris winning the title shot really surprised me, and I'm a bit iffy on it as I have a feeling AMW will split up due to this. But if you keep them as a team, then I'll be fine.

The shows here are well written out and booked as a whole. The last show was particularly good. The Styles/Killings match sounded good and like that Killings picked up the W, he needs to get that gold back on him. The main event sounded loaded and I liked the stipulation, Harris is an interesting choice to win and should lead to an interesting situation, the Jarrett/Raven stuff is good as well. Overall not a whole lot to complain about here, solid stuff.

Wrestling Observer Newsletter TNA News: Jeff Jarrett V. Raven, Future Plans, Chris Harris
Next weeks TNA main event is scheduled to be Jeff Jarrett defending the NWA World Heavyweight Championship against Raven. Mike Awesome V. Jerry Lynn’s mystery man is also on the card.
There have been talks backstage to build up to a four way match for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship between Jeff Jarrett, Raven, AJ Styles and Ron Killings. Although nothing is set in stone, if it does go ahead it will take place within the next month.
There are currently no plans to break up America’s Most Wanted, although a small part of the booking team has considered putting the NWA World Heavyweight title on Chris Harris sometime in the future.

I'm not a fan of this era of TNA, but seeing as how you gave me a reply, I'll return one for you. Good opener, Ilike all of them except for Moore, but Kazarian is my favorite, so I m happy he won. I'm curious to see who the masked man who helped Lynn is. Shame Lynn won though, I was rooting for Killings. Thank god Sandman and Saturn won. I wanted AMW to win, I like them more than XXX. Raven/Jarrett is always good, so I'll tune into the next show just for that.
Good stuff going here man, not my favorite era, but still, cannot believe I never checked this out before
