This is my first blog reviewing a wrestling event, This is also the first TNA PPV that I've been looking forward to in a long time, I'm a big fan of the X-Division, and with some familiar faces returning along with the six-sided ring. Lets see if this lives up to the hype!
Kazarian Vs Samoa Joe
I've always liked Franky's work, But Joe, I respect, but am not 100% sold on. that being said, these guys tear it up! Hard and fast from the opening bell, Lots of Strong style, chops and hard slams, mixed with high flying springboards... (as expected in most matches tonight.), High risk and submissions.
Great match, however the ending was weak.
Douglas Williams Vs Mark Haskins
This is the first time I've seen Haskins wrestle, I'm not hugely into UK wrestling. Williams on the over hand, I've always thought was a bit boring. Match starts off with some good solid chain wrestling, lots of fake pins, was good, but didn't satisfy me.
Gerartion Me Vs Eric Young & Sharkboy
Generation Me are always entertaining, but Young and Sharkboy didnt really seem to be on the same level entertainment wise, Nice quick tag match, Solid, but was not the best I'd seen from both teams.
Zema Ion promo
I like this kid. Good promo
Ultimate X match
Alex Shelley Vs Robbie E Vs Amazing Red Vs Shannon Moore
Spot fest! Mohawks! Exciting stuff! lots of "holy shit" moments! Awesome spots, Big fan of Shelley's work. Loved it!
Low-Ki promo
Radio voice Ki, Typical strong promo.
Rod Van Dam Vs Jerry Lynn
This is the reason I'm watching this ppv, These guys put on a clinic every match! The crowd is completely split down the middle, rightfully so. Honestly two living legends, two of my favourite wrestlers.
An incredible match, RVD's powerbomb bump onto the chair was awesome! *YOU STILL GOT IT!* This is why I watch wrestling! Surprised this wasn't the main.
Jack Evans promo
Jack isn't the greater talker, Quoting Enimem isn't creative!
Shame Austin didn't get mic time, He's the best talker in the match! (pretty obvious why tho)
Winner gets a contract match!
Austin Aries Vs Jack Evans Vs Zema Ion Vs Low-Ki
(Chrissy Hemme botches intros for the 3rd time)
This is another match I'm looking forward too. How do you follow Lynn Vs RVD...like this
*CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP EVERYBODY!*
Austin and Ki talking trash whilst executing submissions, was very original. All wrestlers put 100% in this match and it shows, some really amazxing stuff. Loved this match, I didn't care who won the contract cause they all deserve it! best match I've seen in ages! Congratulations to Austin Aries.
*SIGN THEM ALL*
Only bad thing about this match is Aries Trunks.
Abyss promo
Cliche, Why are you on this card???
Abyss Vs Brian Kendrick
X-Division Championship
(Toilet Break)
I love Kendrick's work, Shame he is booked with someone like Abyss, I find Abyss slow and boring, don't put him on a High Flyer PPV or give him a title. This was my least favourite match of the night, that's entirely on Abyss' work.
Bichoff coming out is just unessary, Run in was a waste of a match, just to include big guys that aint on the card. please, Give the young guys some time!
Cheap win for Brian, Ref counted from outside? At least the strap is off Abyss.
AJ Styles Vs Christopher Daniels
Here we go! The main, two guys who have been in TNA since the beginning, who have worked extremely hard for the business we all love, glad they get the main stage.
The crowd again was electric and split 50/50 *WRESTLING - YAY!, HUL:K HOGAN-BOO!*
Daniels still wrestles like he was 25, its a shame that he is getting past he's prime, but he can still keep up with AJ, and that's a feat in itself, Let alone pull off a 5 star match.
Overall this PPV was great, love watch High-Flying Cruserweights, Glad they got some tv time!
These kinda matches are why I skim through impact each week
Strong prediction, this will be TNA PPV of the year.
8.5/10
