CreativelyEndeavored.com’s Quick Quips: TNA Against All Odds 2012
by Matthew Harrak on February 13, 2012

- I didn’t realize how truly awful the poster for this event was until I tried finding it for this post.

- I was able to watch last week’s Impact but wasn’t able to get a review up. I will miss seeing TNA out of Orlando though.

- I’m interested to see if there’s a big shakeup tonight if the rumors are true and Vince Russo is out.

- Jesse Sorenson has his own football and t-shirt. He’s got more merch than half the roster.

- Zema Ion looks to be channeling Rick “The Model” Martel. Wonder if he is going to suggest a “No Punches To The Face” match against Austin Aries.

- Oh my God that was sickening. Hope Sorenson is ok and another example of how green Ion is. I’m all for high flying, hard hitting, X-Division style matches… but these matches should be competed by experienced (AND SAFE) athletes. This was a stupid mistake you would see at your local, low budget indy show. Not on PPV.

- I think a big reason why Robbie E. is still the TV champion is because he hasn’t defended it in months.

- It’s the battle of “These Guys Are Still On The Roster?”

- I’d actually be ok with Shannon Moore winning here. Mainly because he’s not Robbie E.

- Oh well.

- Interesting that the poster above featured Gail Kim and Velvet Sky but no sign of Tara. Feels like a off the cuff decision.

- Did you know Tara is 41 years old? Damn good for her.

- Decent match but obviously not up to par with some of their classics. Weird to see a worked injury off of a high spot after just seeing a legitimate injury in the first match of the night.

- Joe and Magnus would be great for the tag division right now. Their styles mesh much more easily with a variety of opponents unlike a team made up of two big men.

- Good call as Joe and Magnus have been showing great chemistry. My one question though, why were the heels given the babyface style chase for the gold and title win?

- I wish Matt Morgan was in the WWE simply because there are guys there who can teach him how to truly work like a big man.

- Bully Ray deserves a run with the belt in 2012. Great promo.

- JB is actually bringing some passion and knowledge to this show.

- There are so many experienced guys out there that word the same style as Aries and Shelley. I understand the reasoning behind picking up young guys like Ion and Sorenson but why not capitalize on talent such as Jimmy Jacobs and Eddie Edwards too.

- My God that was a nasty DVD.

- Imagine that, a heel who can actually win without cheating. Fantastic matchup between these two which brought back memories of an almost forgotten X-Division.

- Well that’s some freaky face paint.

- Kaz wearing a Daniels shirt was a nice touch.

- Why is Styles STILL wearing the Fortune logo?!

- Good storytelling in this match but I’m just not that invested IN the story. I feel like its just been done too many times with the exact same players.

- Really risky moves tonight from everyone. And almost all of them seem just a bit mistimed.

- That springboard moonsault was the epitome of athleticism.

- That was Eric Bischoff at his best.

- Anybody else thinking “Shane McMahon” as Garrett Bischoff walks to the ring?

- The towel gimmick is a nice touch.

- Ok, this is odd to say but Shane McMahon was better.

- Smart finish but unfortunately this doesn’t seem to be the end of Garrett vs Gunner.

- Oh dear God, it’s the “Insane Icon”. Awful.

- I think the best option would be to put the belt on Storm and have him face challenges from Bully and Roode (maybe even Hardy).

- What I expect to happen is for either Roode to retain or the more likely, Hardy to win the belt. I don’t think TNA is leaving the country again anytime soon so that’s one hurdle they don’t have to worry about.

- I like the new mix of Roode’s entrance theme. Definitely more heelish.

- Bully Ray is such a good CLASSIC heel. It’s pretty impressive that he’s essentially made himself the biggest story of this match featuring 3 (4 actually) other top guys.

- Holy crap that might have been the loudest pop I’ve ever heard for Hardy taking off his shirt. As my wife says, “I just don’t get it.”

- Wow that was a flashback to Summerslam with Bret Hart, Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. I’m confused as to why Sting would count that pin but neither Bully Ray’s or Jeff Hardy’s earlier attempts.

- For the most part a good 4-way and a decent PPV. I don’t remember the last time we’ve seen a TNA PPV end with a clean finish but that’s to be expected nowadays. I sure as hell hope Jesse Sorenson is going to recover quickly.

    The build to all of this in the main event scene I would imagine is for a big Storm-Roode one-on-one in the cage at LockDown, with Storm finally cornering his old “frenemy” and winning the big win in grand fashion. All of this stuff in between with Sting, Hardy and The Bully is just marking time until then. But of course this being TNA, someone new will probably win the World Title at this week’s tapings.
