Wonder if they'd be willing to take a trip round the corner to Venky's HQ and punch them square in the balls for me...

Just saw this week's Impact, overall it was quite good. Loved the Eric Young/ODB tag-team, comedy gold. Strong main event and the X-Division match was great as well; I never knew Anthony Nese was so damn good, why did they push that useless Jesse kid while Nese sat on his hands? Hopefully that's changing now. Kurt Angle in the bar was hilarious!

However, the Knockouts match...oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Worst segment of 2011? I think so. What on earth were they thinking putting something like that in front of a theme park crowd? I've never heard any crowd more dead in my life, you'd hear more at a graveyard.

Jesse was only good for that insane Kash Drop piledriver a few weeks ago.

(I know it's called the Money Maker, but Kash Drop sounds better... )

Its about time Eric got rid of that beard

Love the way he keeps grabbing everyone and locking up, was doing the crowd, the ref etc...., hes mad

I hope they sort the Knockouts out, was a joke when Karen was running them, turned into the WWE Divas, underwear matches, washing cars in bikini's, please god no, don't ruin them

Ring Ka King (lit. King of the Ring) is a professional wrestling promotion based in India, which is owned and operated by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).Filming for the promotion's television product began in December 2011 with the backing of Endemol and is set to debut on India's The Colors Network on January 14, 2012.
Jeff Jarrett is in charge of the promotion, working alongside Dutch Mantell, Dave Lagana and Jeremy Borash. Savio Vega is responsible for training the Indian talent at Ohio Valley Wrestling.

Apparently the show was very good indeed, but I strongly doubt we'll see it on UK TV. It is an Indian promotion owned by TNA to expand their business in that part of the world.

Be interesting to see how that affected the ratings Stateside, the Knockouts in TNA usually draw very well.

When was the last time a major promotion show was main evented by a women's match? Lita and Trish Stratus did on RAW once a good while ago.

Mickie James vs Tara in a cage last year I think.

Great show again last night. It's been solid and consistent for a while now, which is very good!

If Madison is interfering in the main event, why was Madison's face painted if they basically showed her and told you who it was?

Just do it without the facepaint?

Exactly! Stupid ending, as well for the fact that we had to believe that Taz and Tenay had no idea who it was even after two extended close-ups.

Oh well, despite the silliness, TNA has still been quite enjoyable as of late, and Genesis looks like another strong card. Monster's Ball match? Well overdue one of those!

I wish they'd put Velvet and Angelina back together as the Beautiful People, that Winters crap, don't know why they've split them up and put them two together.

Anyway, anyone going to be on here for Genesis Wednesday the 11th?

Is anyone going to the Maximum Impact Tour in the UK later this month?

Im debating going but i need to leave to get the last train home at 22.00. If anyone has been before, what time do these TNA live events normally finish?

Madison was in disguise because Sting banned her from ringside at the start of the program. Frankly I'd have preferred it if he banned Gail Kim from the company!

I understand their reasons for putting her on the roster she has brought absolutely nothing to the table IMO. (well, nothing apart from 2 peanuts she seemed to be hiding it her top...)

I saw the reasons behind it but I would have thought you either have no interference at all or Madison in a disguise that you genuinely don't recognise who it is.

Are we meant to believe that Sting will be oblivious that Madison ended up peering our from under the ring grinning like a Cheshire cat with little more than a bit of facepaint on?

Sorry, my bad - I misunderstood what you meant about Madison!
I expect Sting will put her in some sort of match as punisment and that Madison will scream about it. Alot.

Madison has a screech that could break glass, its amazing if extremely annoying.

Of course if wrestling was a real sport most matches would be declared void because of all the cheating going on, post match reviewing referees would have a field day heh.

Madison & Karen Jarrett could form a tag team called the Banshee twins - its a surefire way to get heat!
If I was Kurt I would be quite pleased when Jeff got together with Karen, can you imagine the grief you would get from her for farting in bed?!
Speaking of Kurt, whilst he's obviously still in shape its surprising how much weight he has dropped compaired to 10 years ago

Looking forward to Impact on Sunday. and then Genesis on Wednesday, being only 3 days behind America keeps you relatively in the loop.

Quite optimistic for 2012 TNA wise, can't be much worse than last year. There were some good points but too many low points.

That's very cool. I do like TNA but with their arena in Orlando and such quiet crowds there it does often lack atmosphere. Hoping the UK fans will show how it's done.
