7. Lex Luger Aside from Vince McMahon’s locked door sessions with Luger’s 8X10, Luger is, without question, the most worthless pile of shit to ever putrefy a main event match. His moveset , in an era of deliberately paced matches, was, even for the time, embarrassing; his promos cri »»
Oh, John Anthony Cena. He went from Ruthlessly Aggressive to Edgy Wigger to Safe Wigger to Marine to Cornball. As he's careened headlong through the sewers of respectability, the entire business of professional wrestling has seen fit to ride the fecal wave with him.  I, for one, have reached t »»
Kurt Angle, angry at Lashley’s betrayal last week, gives the Mafia a pep talk about taking out Foley and Lashley tonight. After about a million dollars worth of pyro, the Mafia comes on down to the ring. I’m not sure I completely follow this story. While Kevin Nash and Scott Steiner »»
Live-ish from the Impact Zone  Surprise, surprise, Impact begins with an in-ring interview. I have no way of knowing if I'm watching a replay until about five minutes into each show.  Kurt, the Godfather, vows revenge on Foley for hitting him with a chair last week. Kurt puts his »»
As a complete departure from the familiar, we have ourselves a Main Event Mafia in-ring interview to start us off. Sting wants to talk to Jarrett. Jarrett comes down. Stings wants to known why Jarrett's been allowing Foley to run wild lately. Jarrett assures Sting he's still in charge and thinks it' »»
Half a week removed from Destination X, the wrestling world waits in apathy to see the fallout. As per usual we start the show with the Main Event Mafia. More interesting is that Steiner is wearing a hood, obstensibly to hide what Samoa Joe "did" to him at Destination X. Kurt says everything h »»
A recap of the Angle-Sting saga, complete with a black and white replay of last week's empty arena brawl, opens the show before Tenay and West in an empty arena hours before the show. They recap last week's fight again. Show opening. We're "live" now as the arena is full. Tonight we get to see »»
We open with a recap of Against All Odds, proprietor of the worst PPV main event I can remember. We get a run-down of the matches tonight, one of which is a Knockouts Gauntlet. Most importantly Angle and Sting will team up to take on Team 3-D. It's up first? Kurt Angle and Sting vs. Team 3-D »»
"Live" from the Impact Zone in Orlando, Florida We start out with an N.W.O.-esque video package brought to us by the Main Event Mafia. Granted it is hilarious as it is Backstage Kurt has inhabited Jarrett's old office, complete with glass and a tie. Cornette comes back to tell him he can't tak »»
We kick off live from South Carolina with a pretty cool, albeit short, recap package of TNA Genesis.  Give TNA credit for only showing a half second clip of the Sting – Rhyno TNA Championship match. We’ve got a match between Kurt Angle and A.J. Styles later on. I donâ »»
While most outlets of mainstream entertainment have pushed the limits of reality in their quest to toe the politically correct line (if television is any indication, one in three doctors are black) the WWE has remained unapologetically racist. It is racist not because Chairman Vince McMahon secretly »»
Shut-ins worldwide can rest easy knowing they need not wait for Mondays to see talentless women with glistening racks attempt (and obviously fail) to wrestle. Yes, people Kristy Hemme is not only still alive (contrary to my suspicions) but lively enough to botch with reckless abandon, on my TV scree »»
Now how do we start tonight's episode of Impact? A 20-minute match between Christopher Daniels and AJ Styles? How about an announcement that Jarrett, Steiner, Nash and Mick Foley have retired for good? Nope. TNA is all about shaking things up. Therefore, we get something that hasn't opened every Imp »»
I have had some epic internet problems. I had no internet connection for six days, so this Impact review has been festering on my computer. Hopefully it doesn't happen again as I was going through crazy wireless withdrawal. Onto Impact. The same old interview to start the show, this one featuring »»
All right people, the Impact review is going to be coming out on Saturdays instead of a live report on Thursdays due to some work overlap. At least this will allow me to fast forward through the Russo-rific moments and thus preserve my ever-diminishing sanity. Impact kicks off with a familiar sig »»
Unsurprisingly, a video recap of the MEM's melodrama welcomes us to another two hours of iMPACT. I must admit, Angle's manic look when he attacks Foley - who's checking on Jeff Jarrett - from behind is priceless. Jarrett joins us and says Angle has been suspended for a week without pay. That is h »»
We start off with a video recap of last week's shenanigans. "Main Event Mess!" The most ineffectual authority figure in pro wrestling history, Jeff Jarrett is being talked out of allowing Angle and Sting to fight in an empty arena by Jim Cornette. "What are my options?" Jarrett wonders. He thinks it »»
Live from the iMPACT Zone. TNA starts us off with a recap of last week, smartly choosing to focus the majority of the recap on Sting and Angle's rift. Joe is back, looking... well, like Umaga. Fireworks, explosions. The show begins. Tonight's main event is Team 3-D vs. Sting and An »»
We open with a recap of Kurt’s promo last week, over shots of MEM’s archive of beatdowns. We then cut to footage of Brother Ray’s return. “End of the Originals?†appears on the screen as we hit the opening credits.  SONJAY DUTT v. SHIEF ABDUL BASHIR v. CHRI »»
