Couldn't agree more.

Really enjoyable match. Yang is a super good athlete and does some amazing things and I've always enjoyed Low Ki in the ring. He's just fun to watch. Edit- C-verse worker Mikey James just got a mention on Impact. LOL

I think you may be right about him not sticking around. Hoping you are not however. Cuz to me he's one of those guys to have that 'it' factor to him. Granted he'll never be a huge star for a big promotion because of his size but despite that he could be a huge star within a division like the X division. Really liking this Impact so far. The X division match was awesome and the RVD/ Joe match was really good too. Shame Joe wasn't the winner.

There's atleast of a couple of those guy's on liontamer's list that I would consider WCW guys more than WWE guys. Enjoyed Lockdown, first PPV I've ordered in awhile. The Mickie James/ Rayne match was a joke though. Really happy that Sting retained and the pop he got from the crowd was crazy.

<p>I just think its funny when people say TNA sucks, they aren't what they are supposed to be, that they're supposed to be some great company. But what exactly are they supposed to be? What should they be doing? </p><p> </p><p> I'm not saying they are great, but I enjoy TNA and I'm also in the camp that they should slow things down a tad and give a bit more time to matches.</p>

Oops. Sorry man. Shoulda put it up like the following... Was watching last week's episode of Reaction and Hogan's comments on there are baffling. He brings up Kayfabe and than says it doesn't matter how many fake belts you win. Even though people know its fake, they still care about the belts if they're made to look good. But how can anyone give a damn if come out and say you shouldn't care. What the hecks the point of even watching than if you don't care atleast a little bit about the wrestlers chasing after championship belts? Comments like that are definately a huge turn off to the wrestling thing, especially if the comments are made on your wrestling TV show. Dumb move by TNA imo. Only the first couple of sentences are what Hogan said. The rest is my take. On a side note, the Machine Gun/ Gen Me brawl thing was great.

<p>I saw the rumors of Sting going to WWE for the HOF but they're just rumors. Honestly him showing up in WWE even just for the HOF would almost be more surreal than Vince McMahon showing up on the last Nitro or Hogan showing up in TNA. </p><p> </p><p> He definately would deserve the recognition from WWE for the HOF because he's the only true WCW wrestlers left that has never appeared in WWE. Plus during the height of the nWo, he was the most over wrestler in the world and he never said one word. So it would be cool for him to show up for the HOF but at the same time it would be awesome for him to stick to his guns and stay away from them like he always has before. </p><p> </p><p> Me, I kinda think he'll be back in TNA. Its easy money for him at this point.</p>

I watched Raw for the first time in a long time on Monday and I must say I was entertained and enjoyed pretty much the whole show. That's really all I want from pro wrestling, just to be entertained. The only thing I think that sticks out from Raw that I didn't like is easily Michael Cole.

I really enjoyed Eric Young in that match. He had me cracking up the whole match.

Well a special in August would make a lot of sense considering the PPV is being given to Dreamer and his ECW sendoff. So it is a good idea.

Wouldn't know, not a huge fan of WWE. What does ballet have to do with anything? I'm just saying with wrestling I generally know what I'm going to get. With MMA or boxing, that one bout that you were really looking foward to could end before it really ever gets going and I'd feel cheated.

Not to mention you won't see a lucky shot end the show. You pretty much know with wrestling that you are going to get nearly 3 hours of entertainment. With MMA or boxing for that matter, a fight could be over in a matter of seconds. Now I'm not trying to start an argument, just saying why I would rather spend my money on a wrestling PPV than MMA or boxing.

No it isn't a surprise. Maybe they should drop the price back down to where it was. Or perhaps the rumor of doing TV specials instead would be a good course of action. Although I'd like to see them drop the price of their PPVs first and see if that helps.

Crowd loves Joe!

Van Damminator = Mark out! I believe that was the first time he's used it since he's come to TNA? Agreed. Very heavy on the wrestling this one.

Harris got a huge singles push during the weekly ppvs. He nearly beat Jarrett for the title. Russo was really behind him.

Now that would be interesting honestly.

I really like the idea of Xplosion coming to Spike, they'll be able to feature X matches more I would guess and tag teams that we don't get to see that often (Generation Me!). I for one won't mind it being on before Impact if true, I liked when Nitro was 3 hours personally, but it would make more sense for it to be on like Tuesday night or something.

I'm with the rest of you guys, Lethal and Flair were great and Lethal shined. One of the best segments I think I've ever seen in wrestling to be honest. It makes me want to see Lethal take on Flair in the ring which is a perfect result. Impact was good last night with a few dull spots, I'm a huge Sting fan and like Jarrett but I don't care about this feud at all. Sting against RVD was much more interesting, but hopefully they put some closure to the Sting/ Jarrett thing and move on because it really is dull. Otherwise good show with that fantastic Lethal/ Flair segment. Fortune could be good as well but we'll see. Plus I liked the turn at the end. Perhaps they can salvage the damage they did. Also with Dreamer sitting in the crowd I'm almost sure the ECW stable is going to happen (didn't read spoilers, find the show much more enjoyable that way). Here's hoping Paul Heyman is the payoff at the end.

That was a great match and I'm kinda surprised with Lethal winning. I will say that Flair really brought an interesting dynamic to the match.
