TNA 2007 : iMPACT! #7 Up! Steiner!

For a rookie, you have a lot of potential. This is an awesome diary, bro. Destionation X looks great.

TNA iMPACT! Live from the iMPACT! Zone, Orlando, Florida – 8/3/07.

The War Machine
Rhino came to the ring and said that he hasn't seen much of AJ Styles recently, and he said that although Styles beat him at Against All Odds, he wants a re-match! Styles then blind sided Rhino and attcked him from behind with a partner. The partner then lifted his hood, it turned out to be Christopher Daniels! Daniels and Styles continued the beat down on Rhino until they decided to walk backstage.

X Division Tournament Semi Final (1/2) – Petey Williams v Sonjay Dutt
Dutt who tried his best in this match was always going to find it hard against the Team Canada member, Williams ended the match when he hit a Canadian Destroyer.

Oooh Canada
Team Canada then celebrated, Williams got a mic and declared that he would face Sabin at Destination X and Bobby Roode and Eric Young would win the NWa Tag Team Championship and then Team Canada would reign supreme again.

X Division Tournament Semi Final (2/2) – Christopher Daniels v Alex Shelley
Daniels who was accompanied by his new friend AJ Styles ended the match early on but this got himself DQ'd when Styles gave hima steel chair which he used to hit Shelley over the head with. After the match Rhino hit the ring and attacked Daniels and Styles. He then got a mic and said at Destination X it would be AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels v Rhino and his mystery partner!

X Division Tournament Final – Petey Williams v Alex Shelley
Shelley who has been busted open from the chair shot by Daniels was not the favourite in this cotnest but still put on a great showing, in a fantastic match, these 2 showed why they are thought of as such great talents. Shelley suprisingly got the win when he managed to get Williams in a small package to get the pinfall. Williams then had a fit kicking the ropes and jumping up and down until Jim Cornette came out and said that Williams and Shelley would both be included in the X Division Championship Match at Destination X in a three way against Chris Sabin! But this isn't any ordinary match, this is an Elevation X Match!!!

It's Real...It's Damn Real
Angle is seen backstage, he goes on to say that tonight he will have to be on the same page as Samoa Joe but at Destination X, it's every man for himself.

Kurt Angle & Samoa Joe v Christian Cage & Scott Steiner
This match which turned out to be a very good bout was definitely match of the night. Angle and Joe seemed to co-exist together and delivered some very techincal wrestling to Cage, The match though ended when Scott Steiner got olympic slammed by Angle and before Cage could do anything Samoa Joe had him in the kokina clutch. Angle and Joe won the match but soon after they started brawling with each other as Cage and Steiner are left lying in the ring.

iMPACT then went off air as we see Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe brawling towards the back.

Nice iMPACT! man, destination X looks really good, lets hope It lives up to the hype , I'll be reading.

TNA Destination X - 11/4/07

Pre Show - Lance Hoyt & Ron Killings vs. Serotonin (Maverick Matt & Kazarian w/Johnny Devine)
Lance Hoyt got the win in this decent match when he hit Maverick Matt with a big boot. He then covered Matt as Kazarian tried in vain to break up the count. Raven then came out and told them all he's sick of being associated with jobbers and claimed he has bigger frish to fry.

#1 Contendership for the X Division Championship - Austin Starr vs. Jay Lethal vs. Senshi vs. Sonjay Dutt
This match which was an excellent X Division cotnest delivered the goods. All 4 men hungry for success left it all the ring. With many ner falls Senshi looked destined to win when he hit the Warriors Way on Lethal only for Dutt to break up the count. Aries then took advantage as he threw dutt out the ring, he then rolled Senshi up and had a handfull of the tights as the referee counted to 3. Starr is now #1 contender for the X Division Championship.

Grudge Match - Rhino & ?? vs. AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels
The match started when Rhino revealed his tag team partner to be none other than good friend Raven! Raven in his return to the ring looked like he'd lost a few pounds and really took it to Styles until Styles used underhand tactics to regain control. Daniels then went for a moonsault on Raven only for Raven to move out the way and tag in Rhino. Rhino then took out Styles with a devastating Gore and waited for Daniels to rise to hit the gore! Pin, 1..2..3. Rhino & Raven win the match.

Hail Sabin!
Chris Sabin is seen backstage, he says it doesn't matter whatever match TNA thinks of he will overcome the odds and retain his X Division Championship in the Elevation X Match.

Open Invitation - Sting vs. ??
As Sting waited for his opponent, James Mitchell came out and said he had hand picked an opponent for Sting seeing as Abyss has vanished. He said this man has had lots of history with Sting, the man is Vampiro! Sting quickly went to work on Vampiro but Vampiro managed to out-strengthen Sting and take advantage. Towards the end of the match Vampiro managed to hit a tombstone piledriver on Sting but somehow Sting kicked out. Sting then reversed a suplex and locked in the Scorpion Deathlock. Vampiro had no choice but to submit, as mitchell looked on, pissed off.

Elevation X - TNA X Division Championship - Chris Sabin vs. Petey Williams vs. Alex Shelley
All 3 combatents started slowly as they all tried to work out the demonic structure above them, the scaffold structure which formed an X above the ring. Shelley who was getting double teamed by Sabin and Williams found the match the toughest as he was hit with a Cradle Shock early on. Later on in the match all 3 men seemed extremely worn down until Williams and Shelley double teamed Sabin, putting him through a table. This left Shelley and Williams who both climbed on top of the steel structure, both men traded right and lefts until Williams scraped the bottom of the barrel and hit a low blow on Shelley, he then pushed him and Shelley plunged off the scaffolding to the mat. Williams then climbed to the middle and retrieved the X Division Championship.

Team Canada

Johnny Devine then came out wearing Team Canada attire. He joined the other mebers and said Serotonin weren't successful enough for him and he was with Team Canada to win gold!

NWA Tag Team Championship - LAX (c) vs. Team 3D vs. Team Canada vs. The James Gang
Bobby Roode and Eric Young represented Team Canda in this match and did a great job. LAX and Team 3D instantly went for each other as did James Gang and Team Canada. Team Canada and LAX then squared off against each other in the ring and LAX started to dominate. Near the end of the match Team 3D started to control the match until Konnan attacked Brother Ray behind the referee's back. This left Brother Devon alone in the ring. Team Canda and The James Gang were brawling outside and with Devon on his own in the ring, Homicide and Hernandez took advantage with Hernandez hitting a Border Toss on Devon for the win. LAX celebrated as Team 3D looked pi$$ed off in the ring. Team Canada continued to attack James Gang until Team 3D scared them off.

I Am Pro Wrestling
Samoa Joe had an interview backstage and he said he would become new NWA World Heavyweight Champion tonight. Tomko then interrupted and said his man, Christian Cage would retain his title.

NWA World Heavyweight Championship - Christian Cage (c) vs. Kurt Angle vs. Scott Steiner vs. Samoa Joe
These 4 men shared a real hate for each other but it started off like a tag team match with joe and Angle seemingly working together against Steiner and Cage. With Cage and Steiner both down Angle and Joe shared a heated moment until Angle behind Jow hit an Olympic Slam only for a 2 count. Steiner then got up only to be hit by a German suplex, same for Cage. Angle was seemingly on fire. Nearing the end of this great match Angle was still in control until Cage hit a low blow behind the referee's back and then hit the un-prettier only for Steiner to break the 3 count up. Cage and Steiner then trash talked to each other until Steiner threw Cage out of the ring. Joe then got back up and managed to clothesline Steiner out of the ring.

bringing Vampiro in to face Sting great choice bringing a real life feud into a wrestling ring its awesome man

putting the x division title on petey williams another good choice id like to se a williams v sabin feud

and well Joe gettin the belt was inevetable man

Great Diary. Samoa Joe may be an awesome champ. But We Will See. Raven as Rhino's partner rules. Don't care much for Vampiro being the mystery guy. Good Job

having ariss drop the austin starr gimmick and team with roderick seemed like a pretty silly thing to do (especially since he's the number one contender to the x-div. title)

other than that i enjoyed impact and d-x, and i will continue to read to see where you go with it.

i dont really care much for austin aries and rod strong teaming together again

bring in castagnoli to team with hero and u got another tag team

debut jack n teddy theres another tag team build up tag team division buddy
