Since we have new sub forums I am going to start making separate threads for each TNA show so everything doesn't get bogged down in that other thread.

1) Feast or Fired Match: Grado, Drew Galloway, Eli Drake, & James Storm def. Bram, Eric Young, Chris Melendez, Aiden O’Shea, Jessie Godderz, Rockstar Spud, & Robbie E
2) TNA X-Division Title Triple Threat: Tigre Uno (c) def. Zema Ion & Mandrews to retain the title!
3) Awesome Kong def. Velvet Sky
4) The Wolves def. Abyss & Crazzy Steve via DQ
5) TNA World Title: Matt Hardy (c) fought Jeff Hardy to a NO CONTEST (Matt retains)

----

The show kicked off with Jeff Hardy wanting answers for Matts random heel turn last week. So Matt does with his wife and Tyrus, I wonder why they are carrying a damn baby out to the ring... Jeff Hardy is face so of course he has to hate Matt because he is heel. I wish this would have been done different. I wish Jeff would be supportive of his brother for weeks to come. Even ignoring all the evil stuff Matt is doing. But nope TNA doesn't have any patience for that. They did something similar they had Matt tell Jeff after Jeff challenged Matt, I love you but I will do anything for this belt. Then in the main event it doesn't get started it just one big brawl. Atleast it delays Jeff vs. Matt, I thought they were gonna blow their load on that one right away. Best to save that for after Matt deals with EC3.

Feast of Fire, the match was boring. But its always somewhat interesting to see who gets what. So Eli Drake gets a King of the Mountain title shot. I hate Eli Drake, dude has no personality. But they seem to see something in him. Even though I really don't like him, it does seem to fit. Not that I wanted him to get a grab a case, but since he did.. The King of the Mountain shot seems fitting.  Predictably the Tag Team title match went to Beer Money. Draw Galloway got the World Title shot. Man they really have to push Galloway now don't they? They don't have anyone else! I don't care for him, but the way things have gone for him lately it makes sense. Grado gets fired, won't miss him, even though he kinda started to grow on me. Predictable stuff here.

I really wish we'd get a X-Division match every week. Tigre Uno is always fun to watch, so obviously TNA can't put him on TV. This was only on TV because Shane Helms came out like he did at the One Night Only Live! PPV. Basically said he was coming for the championship and he will probably win it. Not that it really matters, because it never gets show cased. The title did nothing for Tigre Uno and Tigre Uno did nothing for the title. If Helms capturing the belt puts more spotlight on it, then go that direction. I really like Mandrews' skateboard spot down the ramp, good stuff. Seems like this X-Division has like 3 wrestlers.


Abyss and Crazy Steve are now a team. With some chick who is crazy too. With TNA's lack of tag teams I guess this makes sense. They kind of fit together. I know it makes sense to shit on all of these things TNA does it. But I have to look at it for what it is to get any sort of enjoyment out of it. Both characters werent doing anything. Plus they have an awesome theme in "The Nobodies" by Marilyn Manson. Atleast it looks like we are gonna have The Wolves vs. Beer Money for the titles soon. I really hope they don't just have Beer Money win the titles right away. But I really hope they don't do a best of 5 series or something. They've done enough of those. Just do a regular feud where it takes them a few times to take the titles. Also while they are feuding, TNA please build up some other tag teams.

My Top 5 wrestlers right now in TNA are,

1. EC3
2. Matt Hardy
3. Kurt Angle
4. Beer Money
5. Jeff Hardy

Oh does anyone know what happened to Rockstar Spud on these shows? The dude was on the One Night Only Live! PPVs but hasn't been seen on Impact since they debuted on POP im pretty sure. He's one of the most genuinely entertaining guys they have. USE HIM TNA!
