I love Rockstar Spud as well. He was really funny tonight. I also like ECIII.

Impact tonight was decent and advanced the stories beyond Lockdown. No Dixie was a bonus and adding the Abyss/Young stuff to the title picture give a few weeks more mileage to the Joe/Magnus story. Shaw's character was advanced again, the women got a good amount of time with a début and a return to set up future stories. Bully cut a good promo and put himself over as a face and set up at least two future feuds with Roode and ECIII. This is without even having Aries and The Wolves on the show.

My only problems were that Willow's character wasn't really defined (though I like the concept) and that the tag champs lost clean.

I see him as a mix of the two with a bit of Norman Bates thrown in there. What do you think of him Whedon? I like having an actual character who plays his role and behaves as if he was an actual stalker.

yeah i love it.

i commend any promotion/workers who try to be creative rather than stick to wrestler a vs wrestler b all the time.

the finish to their lockdown match was brilliant.

Yeah it's depressing isn't it!

I didn't think this week's Impact was much good. The crowd seemed tired, there was no Anderson, Shaw or of course Aries. On the other hand, the Gunner / Storm feud continues to be good and Roode / Bully has a ton of potential.

Oh yeah, and it's time to drop Magnus / Joe as a title feud. It isn't working.

They need to drop Magnus as champ altogether unless they actually decide to book him properly.

they need a clue

velevet sky actign is terrible and then they player her music before she has even finished saying she will rejoin

gunnars actign was terrible when his dad got hit. no intensity or grief portrayed well.

abyss match was boring to kick off show.

overall bland show, i like magnus though.

I haven't seen this past weeks Impact and I can't say I'm in any rush to see it.

I looked around the various forums I'm on and not many people said it was worth going out of my way to catch up.

I agree her acting is terrible, but I don't think she's been hired for her acting or her wrestling skills either! Good to see Eric Young getting a shot at the title albeit in a 4 way match, but it would be good to see him win, he deserves it.

Team Canada?

Eric has always been good, just underused, although he has been involved in some very odd storylines over the years!

I liked the double act of Spud and EC3 - there was a weirdly Scooby Doo feeling to their segments, exploring the Great Outdoors, then being terrorised by a masked loony in a spooky cabin. All it needed was some Scooby snacks and Jeff/Willow being unmasked to say that he'd have gotten away with it if it hadn't been for those meddling kids.

Back in the ring - I know they're new and fresh to TNA but do we have to see the Wolves every week? They are pretty good, but they're not much fun. Where's Bad Influence gone? They really know how to entertain. And is that two or three weeks now without Aries? He needs to be back on TV.

Bad Influence weren't brought to this block of TV tapings. Also Daniels contract is up this month.

Not another one! That would be a real shame if Daniels was let go. He's consistently solid in the ring and is brilliant on the mic and the combination with Francois K is one of my favourites.

I absolutely love the Storm / Gunner feud right now. That main event this week was brilliant. The suicide dive through the table! Lovely.

Apart from that, I'm intrigued to see EY competing for the title. He would actually be a good choice to be put into a full programme with Magnus for the strap. I think Magnus / Joe has run its course. Joe just doesn't seem motivated to get into shape.

Vice President of TNA, John Gaburick, has confirmed the six sided ring will return at some point. "the six sided ring is a fabric of who we are. It helped make TNA. It will continue to be part of who we are."

So is Russo definitely back for TNA? I say that because Impact this week seems to be gimmick match galore from what I've read.

and just as i was thinking you were a good poster.

russo is not back, impact is full of long matches and recaps. has no flow at all.

to pretend he is because there a few gimmick matches is poor and i expected better of you.
