Well if you didn’t hear that TNA will be moving to AMC instead of AXS TV, they did a whole video package for the first 5 minutes of the show with a cover of Phil Collins’ In The Air Tonight. They’re making it feel like a big deal, which is honestly great and is truly pretty big. AMC is in twice as many homes as AXS TV, so this is their first upgrade since moving from Fox Sportsnet to Spike TV in 2005.

Let’s hope they use all of this downtime with a month off after Bound For Glory, Thanksgiving was a clip show and the Turkey Suit match, and they keep saying tomorrow’s Final Resolution is the end of their year, so they may just do their usual clip show end of year too. So TNA needs to come out swinging next year with three months of nothing and questionable Russo-esque decisions.

More Rascalz, that’s how we can start AMC off strong, Golden Treehouse, give them all the titles.

The Rascalz meet in the Treehouse for a special meeting ahead of #TNAFinalResolution!@TheTreyMiguel @ZacharyWentz @dezmondxavier @TheBadReed #TNAiMPACT

Results:

Brooks Jensen vs Home Town Man

HTM is actually…out wresting Brooks early. Brooks tries to come out using his size and youth, but Cody-erhm-HTM has counters for everything culminating in a Crossbody for two. Hometown goes for the Sliced Bread but it’s too early and Lexis King on the outside causes enough issues to turn the tide. Brooks starts throwing HTM around, Uppercuts, Stomps, Knees to the back of the head…but Brooks misses a knee! Homie tries to fire and go for a slam but falls over because Brooks is too big. Brooks goes for the Bear Hug submission as Hometown tries to plead to the crowd. Homie claps bells, rope runs a few times into Brooks, Brooks stays up, so a little rope-a-dope into a Flying Lariat and then a Power Slam! Hometown Elbow, into Hometown Slice…but Lexis hits the apron and Homie hits the Dive on Pillman Jr. Lexis grabs Homie to slow the momentum, Homie gets caught with a really slow and ugly Capo Kick…but…effective. 1-2-3, NXT gets a win with cheating.

IInspiration comes out to remind people that the Knockouts Tags are still sadly a title and they’re the champions. Tessa and Victoria Crawford interrupt the goofy ahh promo, Tessa is fantastically snarky…their Mila newbie from Turning Point blind sides Cassie and Jessie, so it looks like Tessa may have the makings of a faction. But as they taunt, the IInspiration gets up since Victoria and Mila are kinda joke characters right now. So Tessa bails as Vix and Mila get rekt. Honestly, I’d like to see Vix and Tessa win the title. Tessa is too good to be without gold this long, she’s made her apologies, giving her the Tag belts is a good softball to see how crowds react. Plus Tessa looks like a million bucks, so you want her on AMC. 

Dani Luna vs Xia Brookside

My heart is conflicted. I love Dani Dumptruck, but I have no desire to see her beat Lei Ying Lee for the title. The Xia mirror match at least has the fun story of teammates colliding, which doesn’t need a build and Brookside can lose with no real damage. 

Dani just tosses Xia off a few times. The power advantage is all in favor of Dani Dumptruck. Xia does manage to use the ropes to help take down Dani with a Headlock, but Dani powers out eventually. This definitely builds like a World of Sport match, which yes, they’re both British, but this is slow, deliberate and Dani is just tearing apart Xia with Knee Bars, Arm Captures, Stomps and Power moves. Back from the commercial Dani is playing wall ball with Xia Brookside as the ball. Obviously we’re waiting for the underdog fire from Xia, but you just have to wonder if it’ll be enough to win, or just make it more competitive. She’s selling well with her body language and facials as she starts the comeback with Forearms, a stiff one and two funny Lariats into a Satellite Facebuster.

Charging Elbow into the corner, Broken Wings, and Xia hits the Crossbody for two and Xia is selling the injured limbs, but had a nice burst of throwing it all out there. Dani with a power out Snapmare, tries something but Xia locks in the Octopus Hold! Dani tosses her off but eats a Russian Leg Sweep and then Xia locks in an Armbar. Dani stands and turns it into a Buckle Bomb, rope assisted Blue Thunder Bomb…and only two. Dani starts hunting for chairs and chains, but Indi Hartwell comes down, doesn’t see Indi attack Dani, so Xia with the Small Package for the win.

While I’m glad we get the Xia mirror match, I don’t want to see Dani and Indi again unless they have Dani finally get over. No reason to try to set up Dani as this brute and have her lose every time it matters.

Robert Stone vs Mike Santana

Stone attacks Mike as he’s coming out of the crowd, and he takes the advantage until he telegraphs a Back Body Drop, eats a kick and then Spin the Block levels Robbie E in no time.

Mustafa Ali vs Trey Miguel

Trey was playing with Ali early, counters, ducking, playing around avoiding offense. But Ali finally clocks him, and the pace slows down but Trey snaps back with a Back Elbow, catches Ali in the Up and Over Crucifix Bomb. Two count, Mustafa powders, Trey tries to chase, but Mustafa catches him sliding through the post into a DDT on the floor. Ali lands a few shots, Trey tries something but Ali catches him into a Stalling Brainbuster…stalling for what feels like 30 seconds before dropping Trey down. Rolling Neckbreaker is countered by a Lionsault from Trey. Trey kicks off Ali with a lift and Tiger Wall Run, into a Dropkick. Ali tries to bounce with it and come back at him but a Frankensteiner from Trey keeps Ali on the back foot. Bunch of counter gymnastics next, Ali is on the outside, Trey wands the dive and does the Rey Mysterio Sliding DDT to the floor. Trey throws in Ali, Meteora, but only a two count. I forgot that wasn’t Trey’s finish anymore since he hasn’t had a solo match in a minute.

Some acrobatic assist crap into a Springboard Destroyer, Ali manages to Matrix out at two. Trey tries the Meteora again and misses, so Ali locks in the Sharpshooter and Trey taps. It was alright, but overly cooperative Wuxia wrestling is lame. I’ll play Where Winds Meet or watch a Jet Li movie if I want to watch cool spots for the sake of it.

Steve Maclin, Cedric Alexander, Hardy Boyz vs Tyrek, Tyson, Stacks & Lexis King

Maclin and Alexander blindside NXT while the Hardyz enter alone. So TNA with some payback on the sneak attack side, Maclin Kitchen Sink on Stacks, Maclin tosses Lexis to Cedric and Ced snaps off a German. TNA is in full control early on. Maclin tags out to Matt, Arm Wringers and then the Hardy combination after Matt tags in Jeff. Hardys hit Poetry…no Lexis gets in the way and breaks up the poetry, all 8 are in, 3 NXT members are thrown out, Stacks is left and he’s getting bounced around by all four TNA wrestlers until they just Double Hip Toss him into the pile of waiting imbeciles because of course we need that spot. Announce team does remind us that Stacks is Arianna’s fiance, so thus further leading to her being the mole in the company.

Back from the commercial, oh look NXT is winning. Commercial break 101 where the momentum is completely shifted and we don’t actually get to see it. Stacks is wearing out Cedric, but they start trading blows until an errant kick from Stacks forces him to eat a Dragon Screw. Simultaneous tag, Lexis and Maclin, Maclin rocks Lexis, Vader Hammer, Elbow to the back of the skill, Hip Attack, Caught in the Crosshairs, but Lexis sits up. Maclin wipes out all of the NXT guys who try to interfere, but Lexis with a Wrecking Ball Dropkick to take control. Now Maclin is in the NXT corner getting cut off and worked over.

Stacks and Lexis over extend. Missed Cannonball, Maclin chucks Lexis over the top, Double Lariat down spot. Another simultaneous tag Jeff and Lexis, classic Jeff offense with an addition of an Apron Splash on the entire NXT squad on the outside. Jeff looks for Swanton, but Stacks says no and Lexis crotches Jeff. Cedric gets involved and we reach the signature spam moment of this multiman imbecile matches.

Lexis Superkicks Matt, but the Hardys hit the Plot Twist on Lexis! Stacks breaks up the pin and we’re still going on. Stacks tags himself in and attacks Jeff but gets crotched. Matt and Jeff hit a Tree of Woetry in Motion. Maclin does a Jeff Hardy dance before Caught in the Crosshairs, Cedric dives on the mass of humanity outside…but Lexis hits Maclin with the cane in the chaos, and Maclin eats the pinfall.

Overall Score: 5/10

This was a very mediocre episode. I’ll say they got the outcome of Dani and Xia correct, but the way they got there is lame. Indi’s facial expressions are awful, so her trying to be angry looks more constipated. The crowd loves Indi and in shorter matches she was fine, but when expected to control or emote a story, she is completely worthless. Tessa with her little Disciplinary Committee is amusing since she’s the only legit one in the group. The swerve to the NXT angle is looking more and more like the obvious linchpin of Arianna turning heel.

All in all, the show was inoffensive, but with the inconsistent filming and what feels like throw together PLEs last few months, I can’t really care when you can tell there’s not much creative energy utilized. At least we didn’t have to sit through an awful “Mr. Elegance” segment. But yeah I’m not going to expect any real effort until the first AMC episode, because they’re just coasting on a bad schedule, missed episodes and no real main event scene.

Last week was…well sadly real. Santana got shanghaied with an NXT invasion beatdown into Kaz cashing in to actually become the new TNA Champion. Turning Point should’ve been renamed to Speed Bump because I’ve watched Road to… shows headlined by KENTA vs YOSHI-HASHI that were more enjoyable that whatever that rush job PLE was.

There is a method of thinking that sometimes the obvious outcomes are the best. But I think current booking for TNA is WCW Thunder 1999 of just throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks. For a Final Fantasy IX reference, out of 100 nobles watching, 0 were impressed. This pathetic booking I suppose can only get better…but I feel like I’ve said that a few times this year. Trying to find Rock Bottom for creative is much more difficult than actually tripping over a good idea in this company. Go figure?

.@MrStoneWWE leads the fray as @WWENXT sends a message loud and clear.

Results:

Well Santana opens up the show after whatever the last two episodes are. Admittedly, I don’t really care what he’s gonna say. It’s gonna be some version of ‘Now I want it more’ then  ‘Business first, NXT then get the title back’, or something super cookie cutter like that. Let’s see if it’s original or finger paints. Cookie cutter we went! This is essentially the entire promo he threw at The System. He’s gonna pick em off one by one…yikes…we really just hit the copy and paste on this? 

.@milanmiracle stepped away from the investigation into the #WWENXT attack to sign a HUGE main event! @DirtyDangoCurty vs. @TheEricYoung — and if JDC wins, he earns a shot at @FrankieKazarian’s TNA World Championship.

Rosemary vs Dani Luna vs Indi Hartwell vs Myla Grace

Dani erupts with the Shotgun Kick on Indi, Indi powders the other three go for the strike trade, Myla gets early offense since they’ve forgot she existed for the last two months or so. And no, Explosion doesn’t count, even I can’t watch that miserable clip show with one undercard match after 25 minutes of talking. It’s like WCW Worldwide, but worse.

So Indi comes in after Myla rocks the other two and Indi starts working Myla over. Bounces her out of the corner, a few deliberate strikes, but Myla tries to fight back and grab a Chin Lock on Indi. Indi stands…but Myla drives her back down. Indi stands again and gets out of the Headlock. Irish Whip into a Running Forearm from Myla into a near fall. Irish Whip into the ropes, duck the Lariat and Rosemary and Dani pick the ankles and pull the two women out on opposite sides of the ring. Rosemary is tormenting Indi on the outside and Dani moves back inside with Myla and throws her around with a few Suplexes and near falls. All four are in the ring, Dani doesn’t seem to want to mess with Rosemary yet so they’re working over opponents on opposite ends of the ring. Rosemary bites Indi and Dani is trying to twist Myla’s head off as we head to a short commercial break.

Back from commercial Indi hits a Scoop Slam on Rosemary, Dani breaks the pinfall, Dani and Indi start to brawl as Rosemary gets up and Myla throws herself into all three. Rosemary powders but eats the Tornillo from Myla. Indi and Dani are going back and forth on the inside, simultaneous Lariat. Rosemary finds a chain, but Myla posts Rosemary, Dani manages to find the chain as it flew from Rosemary, she wraps it around her fist, clocks Indi…and Dani actually wins! For a change the right person one. Am I drunk?

Mance Warner w/SDL vs Matt Cardona

Mance blindsides Cardona as soon as he gets in the ring, but the brawl immediately goes both ways. Mance powders to lick Steph or something, Wrecking Ball Dropkick from Cardona and he starts bouncing Mance’s head off the steps. Cardona wants Radio Silence but Steph picks the ankle to slow him up. So when he finally goes for Radio…it gets countered into a Powerbomb and near fall. Mance lays Cardona out into the ropes, SDL chokes him on the ropes, and Mance keeps up the striking. A Spinebuster off the Running Knee attempt gives Cardona a chance to breath as they know do the standing strike exchange. Single Leg Flapjack from Cardona, Back Body Drop and works Mance over with Forearms. Reboot gets hit by Cardona but Mance kicks out of the subsequent pinfall attempt. Cardona wanted Chelsea’s move, but Mance counters, Headlock Driver into a Running Knee for only a two count.

Steph hands Mance a chair, the referee takes it, SDL hands him her purse but Mance eats Radio Silence for…SDL puts Mance’s foot on the rope to keep the match going. Cardona and SDL start to scuffle, Mance hits Cardona with the loaded Purse, Pay Window, Mance wins.

Myron Reed vs Jon Skyler

Skyler came out alone? That doesn’t seem right…

Sklyer charges with the double leg, but the 5 count in the corner forces the break and Myron start lighting Skyler up. Spins him around literally, kicks him in the face, flips off his stomach but Skyler grabs him into a Flatliner into the Buckles and then a Russian Leg Sweep with some Ground and Pound. Myron is getting worked over and bounced off the buckles, but Skyler locks in a Grounded Bear Hug, and Reed stands up, back elbows, but Skyler tries a Back Body Drop, but Reed counters, stiff Right Hand but then Skyler turns Reed inside out with a Lariat. Skyler continues landing Haymakers but Reed hits a Sliding Yakuza Kick and finally strings some offense together. Guillotine Leg Drop, wanted something flying but Skyler ducked it but ate the Dropkick, then Outside In Lung Blower from Reed, Rope Assisted Back Drop gets Reed a two count!

Reed looks for Flame On, but Skyler hits the Slingshot Spear for an opportunistic near fall. Skyler looks for a Suplex but Reed turns it into Stundog Millionaire. There’s a backstage cut that Agent Zero and Tasha are standing over beatdown Rascalz. Matrix Dodge from Reed, Cutter, wants Flame On again, but Skyler moves so Reed flies and he gets a little caught on the ropes, but gets enough. Hotch is out now, Reed ignores him, goes for a Slingshot Cradle but Hotch grabs the foot to change the Cradle momentum and Skyler gets the pinfall!

Killer Kelly vs Victoria Crawford w/Tessa vs Jody Threat vs Xia Brookside

Xia takes out Crawford, Jody makes Kelly powder, there’s a lot of strikes and early opponent trade offs. We have Jody and Kelly on the outside as Victoria and Xia are in the ring, but then we head to commercial. As we’re back, Tessa is on commentary complaining, Kelly has Xia in a Spider Dragon Sleeper, Jody hits a Dropkick on Kelly to break it, then throws Kelly into the ropes, Double Knees into Release German and a two count. Xia tries something but Jody turns it into a Michinoku Driver that Kelly breaks up. Kelly wants her submission but doesn’t get it fully in. She breaks up Kelly’s attack, Dropkick on Xia, big Dive to Crawford, but Xia takes advantage of Jody Diving, so Xia hits the Brooksie Bomb on a perched Kelly. Prawn Hold, and Xia wins.

Eric Young vs JDC

Kaz is on commentary…because of course.

JDC forces EY to powder early, EY threatens fans and stomps around like he thinks he’s Bushwacker Luke for these first few moments. Back Body Drop from Dango sends EY to powder again. EY baits JDC out, slides in, and then stomps JDC when he follows. EY hits the Flair Flip in the corner, JDC cuts it off and…EY is wobbling outside again. Plancha from Dango keeps the offense rolling and dances in front of commentary. Dango keeps peppering in punches right in Kaz’s lap, and Dango is looking good right now. Throws Eric back in, two count, and drives the knee into EY’s shoulder a few times.

Thumb to the eye and Eric gets in a few shots before a Deep Arm Drag takes EY over and keeps some control. Hammerlock Suplex Hold from Dango for two. I enjoy when Dango actually tries to wrestle. He’s much better than he’s ever promoted himself as. Off the commercial EY is walking around in control, drops a few heavy hammers and forearm drops across JDC on the apron. A two count, and JDC is getting dog walked. EY looks for the Moonsault, but Dango finally rolls away. Dango a few Running Hip Attacks into the Russian Leg Sweep and Falcon Arrow for two! Cradle from Dango for two, RVD style Spinning Leg Lariat. Dango perches EY, Superplex attempt, but no, Young fights off Macho Elbow connects for a two count. EY is arguing that is should’ve been three, so Dango recovers. Dango attacks, almost a ref bump, EY Low Blow into Spicolli Driver for 1-2-kick out!

EY is measuring JDC, big right hand as Dango stands up, now Fighting Spirit spot. Eric counters the rope run, tries Piledriver but no, JDC lifts EY back into the perch, Superplex…no. They try from the top rope but they slip and Eric gets away. EY looks for Avalanche Piledriver but Dango Body Drop, DOWN AND DIRTY! Dango wins and gets a title shot.

Overall Score: 6.5/10

Well wait a second, this show had a fair amount of matches, the correct people won the matches, the stories almost seem to make sense…and it was the easiest two hours in a long time. Wow…umm…Kudos? Dani Luna, Dango and The Great Hands keep their current stories moving well, the NXT vs TNA thing is gonna come to a head at Final Resolution, Kaz didn’t interfere, Tessa didn’t interfere. Wow…funny commentary, decent wrestling for the most part and plenty of actual wrestling on a wrestling show. Geez…wow…I must be drunk.
