TNA BUILDS MOMENTUM GOING INTO BOUND FOR GLORY - FIRST BATCH OF READER FEEDBACK TO IMPACT

By PWInsiderXtra Readers on 10/20/2006 10:36 AM
I'll try to keep this one short and sweet. TNA may be ragged on for pushing Angle/Joe too fast, but you gotta pull the trigger while it's hot. We may have just seen a turning point for TNA, and hopefully the buzz around Angle got more people to tune in tonight. Not everything on the show was great, but the last ten minutes made the episode memorable, special, and fun....what wrestling should all be about. Will Russo get the credit he deserves? Probably not. But TNA and Russo himself cannot mess this up...can they? Only time will tell. Great work TNA and I hope it gets even better this weekend with BFG.

I would definitely say that that was the best Impact I have ever seen, hands down.

I managed to catch the last 10 minutes of the show from the West Coast after the gripping conclusion of the NLCS. My initial impression of Kurt Angle's new ring entrance was that it was an improvement from that of his former place of employment, but hardly can be described as the best in the industry, which he seemed to insinuate. Simply being raised on a platform with Undertaker like violet blue lighting and a tune somewhat like that of Chris Jericho does not seem very original. I might add, his holding up the Heavyweight Championship and turning his back to Samoa Joe demonstrated neither integrity nor intelligence.

Overall it was an all right show, not as good as last week.

They did get me excited for the Senshi-Sabin match at BFG. That match is gonna steal the show!

Gail Kim took a hell of a bump tonight. She's by far my favorite valet/diva/vixen/whatever you wanna call it in wrestling right now. They need to put her with a team with talent.

Nash is funny. I loved the skit/vignette. Monty Hall and Paul Hogan, great obscure references. He'd be a great announcer after he's finished wrestling.

The headbutt Angle gave Joe was SICK! I was not expecting that. And I LOVED that the crowd popped for it and the Angle slam. The thing I love about a potential Angle vs. Samoa Joe program, is that Angle is almost certain to break his streak and come out the better of the two. Yeah, I'm not a Joe fan at all.

I will be buying the pay per view.
