X DIVISION RANKING MATCH ALEX SHELLEY VS. PETEY WILLIAMS VS. JAY LETHAL VS. SENSHI VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. SHARK BOY

 

Plus, the new face of TNA Management debuts!

 

It's not the worlds strongest card, although almost every match consists of one if TNA's biggest name. Looks like it's missing at least one match, i think that Monty Brown vs Raven may get added to the card.

 

Matches i'm looking forward to most are Nash vs Sabin, and Joe vs Steiner. The main event doesn't really intrest me that much.

 

I have to say, after seeing Steiner vs Sting, i now retract my statement that we should see singles action involving Sting, as he was truly terrible, sold the moves awfully, and took the stroke really badly. I think it's quite obvious that sting doesn't "still got it"

[Guest MrFill]

Wow, for this was on Sunday - time flies.

 

I'll comment once I've setup the Predictions. :)

[Guest Dave7g]

TNA have a reputation for delivering awesome ppv's every month without fail, last time they didn't, so everyone went off on one unfairly damning TNA for ONE show (which was pretty good, not great). This month we have Slammiversary, which as you wll know has the GREATEST PPV THEME SONG IN HISTORY!! I can hear it now and it makes me want to mark anniversarys. We don't have a super strong card for Sunday but what there is, could potentially be outstanding. I reckon to maybe a new NWA champion to hold it for a month until JOE~ is ready to become the icon he is destined to be. Who else is their that can hold a candle to Joe in the wrestling world? And don't give me that Lashley for I will laugh.

 

Kevin Nash vs. Chris Sabin

 

Could be fun, or could be a disaster, depends whether Big Kev has still got some Nashitus or not.

 

NWA WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH

America's Most Wanted © vs. AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels

 

Tag title match last month was incredibly good, this month will possibly be a lot better, I'm looking for a MOTY with this one.

X DIVISION RANKING MATCH ALEX SHELLEY VS. PETEY WILLIAMS VS. JAY LETHAL VS. SENSHI VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. SHARK BOY

 

This folks is your opening match no doubt, but it's got Lethal, Lo Ki, Petey, Dutt and Shelley...oh and shark boy. This will be spottastic, and what the hell is wrong with that? Quite tough to choose a winner in this since Shelley, Lethal and Senshi have been getting pushed hard lately. And that's a good thing. I'll go for Shelley!

TAG TEAM REMATCH

The James Gang vs. Team 3D

 

I dislike both teams a lot, they both suck quite frankly and don't fit in in TNA the way I see it. Still last month their match was decent, and this month it's a streetfight type match so it should be interesting, a little. Definetly the worst match on the card.

HANDICAP MATCH

"The War Machine" Rhino vs. Bobby Roode and Coach Scott D'Amore

 

Another filler match, if Rhyno loses this, then you have a good idea what his next move is.

 

WHO IS TRULY UNSTOPPABLE?

"The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe vs. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner

 

The hugely improved Steiner since WWE and HHH horrorfests, faces the best thing going in wrestling bar none. It should be really cool this one, Steiner will HATE getting stiffed by Joe and will most likely 'lose it'.Cue Joe unmercifully putting Steiner back in his pram. Joe will win this for sure and cement his spot as the "No. 1 Contender for the NWA title". Can you feel it yet? It's gonna happen!

KING OF THE MOUNTAIN MATCH FOR THE NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

Christian Cage © vs. "The Monster" Abyss vs. Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Sting

 

I love the KOTM matches, they are always a lot of fun. Any wrestling match with a Sin Bin has to be. My theory is that Sting wins this and puts Joe over next month. Who better to put Joe over than a wrestling legend like Sting? I doubt Hogan would do it!

 

Has the possibility to rule hard!

[Guest Proudy]

HANDICAP MATCH

"The War Machine" Rhino vs. Bobby Roode and Coach Scott D'Amore

 

Another filler match, if Rhyno loses this, then you have a good idea what his next move is.

 

ECW, I hope!

[Ryan]

Rhino signed a 2 year deal with TNA did he not?

 

My Predictions:

 

KING OF THE MOUNTAIN MATCH FOR THE NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

Christian Cage © vs. "The Monster" Abyss vs. Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Sting

 

Jeff Jarrett will win the title, then lose it 3 months later, then win it a month later, then lose it 3 months later, then win it the month after, and so forth.

 

WHO IS TRULY UNSTOPPABLE?

"The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe vs. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner

 

I not watching this PPV, but i feel sorry for anyone that is looking at this match, Samoa Joe will win this and carry on his boring "it's obvious he;s going to win so whats the point" streak.

 

NWA WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH

America's Most Wanted © vs. AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels

 

TNA should stop putting AJ & Daniels in the same ring together, whether it be against or with eachother, its probably the most boring, over-used combination in Wrestling.

 

HANDICAP MATCH

"The War Machine" Rhino vs. Bobby Roode and Coach Scott D'Amore

 

Scott D'Amore will pin Rhino to make him look like crap, then TNA will released Rhino.... well they may aswell, there not doing anything useful with him, a 48 hr title reign, oooh fun... not.

 

TAG TEAM REMATCH

The James Gang vs. Team 3D

 

Team 3D will win/lose this match, then after they'll get on the mic and bitch & moan about how WWE kept them down instead of talking about how great they are in TNA.

 

Kevin Nash vs. Chris Sabin

 

Nash win's *yawn*

 

X DIVISION RANKING MATCH ALEX SHELLEY VS. PETEY WILLIAMS VS. JAY LETHAL VS. SENSHI VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. SHARK BOY

 

Sonjay Dutt is in this match, therefor it'll be rubbish, the only saving grace is Alex Shelley.

 

Plus, the new face of TNA Management debuts!

 

[sarcasm]I wonder who this will be![/sarcasm]

 

The hugely improved Steiner since WWE

 

I was waiting for someone to tell that lie :roll

Edited June 16, 2006 by Ryan

[Guest Danny Styles]

Should be a great PPV

 

Chris Sabin vs Kevin Nash

I'm not expecting a MOTY candidate here, but the match ahs to serve a purpose, Nash has to win to keep the feud going, but Sabin has to have a strong showing, so it will make Nash work for the win

 

AMW vs Daniels and AJ

Their match last month at the PPV was my favourite straight tag team match fo all time, it had it all, psycology, good selling and a finish that kept the feud going, and i expect another great match here, i pick Aj and Daniels to win

 

X division number one contender match

Sure it will be an opening match but it will be good, and i don't doubt TNA will give the match enough time for every guy to have a showing, whoever wins this goes on to face Joe next so i'd imagine it will be Shelley,due to his great work in TNA recently, but then again it could be any of the others (bar Shark Boy and Dutt)

 

James Gang vs 3D

again had a good match at the last PPV and the feud has been entertaining for me and i have found it funny. The match will be hardcore which both teams can work well with, it should be a good match with 3D getting the Win

 

Scott Steiner vs Joe

Steiner has been great since his return to TNA and this feud has been build very well and it's giving the crowd what they want, i know Steiner was crap in the E but he's show lots of skill in TNA. I expect Joe to win but have Steiner beat him down after, should be an ok match

 

Rhino vs Booby Roode and D'Amore

I think Rhino will win this gettign the pin on Scott D'amore followed by a Roode beatdown, Roode is going to be a big player in TNA in the future but doesn't need to win this match, he just needs to be made to look strong.

 

KOTM match

I'm a big fan of these matches and i am looking forward to this one as well. All five guys actually have a chance with the belt, but i think it will come down to Jarret or Sting in the end, i would then look for those two to keep their feud going and have the blowoff match at Bound for Glory as it's TNA's Wrestlemania, and this is their biggest feud. I've liked Christian's run but i think it's tim for a change and him to do something else. I tihnk Jarret will win it (yet again) and go on to drop it to Sting at BFG

 

 

i could be wrong though :D

 

should be a great show though and a good way to bring in 4 years of TNA

[Guest Danny Styles]

Rhino signed a 2 year deal with TNA did he not?

yes he has :)

 

 

TNA should stop putting AJ & Daniels in the same ring together, whether it be against or with eachother, its probably the most boring, over-used combination in Wrestling.

HHH and HBK springs to mind

 

 

Scott D'Amore will pin Phino to make him look like ****' date=' then TNA will released Rhino.... well they may aswell, there not doing anything useful with him, [b']a 48 hr title reign[/b], oooh fun... not.

 

and what was Kane's??

 

Team 3D will win/lose this match' date='[/quote']

 

good prediction :P

[Ryan]

HHH and HBK springs to mind

 

HHH Vs. HBK, i agree it is overused and some people my find it boring, i dont though because i like them both, i dont like AJ, i just like Daniels.

 

and what was Kane's??

 

Now i believe there was a reason for Kane's small reign, something to do with Austin, someone might need to remind me what that was because i cant remember :lol

[Guest Danny Styles]

Now i believe there was a reason for Kane's small reign, something to do with Austin, someone might need to remind me what that was because i cant remember :lol

 

well i sure the hell can't :P i wasn't watching it back then

 

and there was a reason for Rhino's and his name is Jeff Jarret

[Guest Dave7g]

Jeff Jarrett will win the title' date=' then lose it 3 months later, then win it a month later, then lose it 3 months later, then win it the month after, and so forth.[/quote']

 

Ever heard of HHH? Jarrett knows his place now.

I not watching this PPV, but i feel sorry for anyone that is looking at this match, Samoa Joe will win this and carry on his boring "it's obvious he;s going to win so whats the point" streak.

 

Ever heard of John Cena?

TNA should stop putting AJ & Daniels in the same ring together, whether it be against or with eachother, its probably the most boring, over-used combination in Wrestling.

 

Yeah, when everytime they are together in a ring they have MOTY candidates, OBVIOUSLY you need to cut that crap out.

 

Scott D'Amore will pin Rhino to make him look like crap' date=' then TNA will released Rhino.... well they may aswell, there not doing anything useful with him, a 48 hr title reign, oooh fun... not.[/quote']

 

48 hours was it? If Rhyno is going away, he must lose, it's traditional. At least they won't throw him in a garbage truck.

 

 

Team 3D will win/lose this match' date=' then after they'll get on the mic and bitch & moan about how WWE kept them down instead of talking about how great they are in TNA.[/quote']

 

Sure why not, did WWE ever take shots at WCW? I think they did you know.

 

Nash will win with a Powerbomb *yawn*

 

How else will he win? With a pedegree *yawn*? An STFU *yawn*. Whats your point? Wrestlers win matches with their finishing moves don't they?

Sonjay Dutt is in this match, therefor it'll be rubbish, the only saving grace is Alex Shelley.

 

Whats wrong with Dutt? I know he's no masterful technician like Khali, but Dutt is decent.

 

[sarcasm]I wonder who this will be![/sarcasm]

 

Yeah, I wonder will DX ever reform?

 

I was wating for someone to tell that lie

 

What lie? Steiner has improved vastly, watch the Sacrifice match if you need proof.

[Guest Sav]

Your opinion on TNA has zero worth P, sorry to be the one to tell you that. I didn't think anyone could stuff so much stupidity into one post, but you managed it.

[Ryan]

Your opinion on TNA has zero worth P

 

And why's that?

[Guest Dave7g]

And why's that?

 

Maybe it's because you don't watch it at all? Same as my opinion on Eastenders has zero worth.

Edited June 16, 2006 by Dave7g

[Ryan]

I watch it when i get bored, doesnt really help though.

[Guest Christof]

Seriously guys do you need to turn everythig into the small old boring WWE vs TNA garb. Dave what's the problem? Is Mr P not allowed an opinion on the TNA product, I mean you call him mr Tunnelvision. Swap the product and you wo are identical.

 

I'm quite looking forward to this PPV but I daren't express an opinion on it just in case its the wrong one.

[Guest Chriscare]

Mr Perfect, congratualtions, that post should go in the hall of fame as the biggest load of bull i've ever heard. I mean Samoa Joe boring cos you know he's going to win, first of all everyone loses eventually, a secondly who on earth cares!!?? Just because the outcome of a match is predictable doesn't mean it's not a good match, it was Obvious that Edge was going to win his two hardcore matches this year, guess they were crap because of that too.

 

Anyway enough of your complete nonsense post, back to what people who have a clue think.

 

KING OF THE MOUNTAIN MATCH FOR THE NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

Christian Cage © vs. "The Monster" Abyss vs. Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Sting

 

I'm not a big King of the mountain match fan, this is really just another match to try cover up Stings flaws. I think it's pretty much between Cage and Sting but it could go either way, no doubt Cage will give anther class performance. Hopefully at some point during this match Killings will show us that he deserves to be there instead of Raven and Monty

 

WHO IS TRULY UNSTOPPABLE?

"The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe vs. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner

 

I really hope this match lives upto it's expectations. I think this is Steiners first time in a while where his match is one people are looking forward to. He's was on top form in his match with Sting, and in my opinion completly carried the match (i still haven't got over how bad Sting looked out there) and Samoa Joe is a pleasure to watch each and every week, and the corwd 100% behind him makes it even better to watch. Can't wait to see how steiner responds to Joe's physaclity in the ring.

 

NWA WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH

America's Most Wanted © vs. AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels

 

I find it a bit annoying getting 2 tag matches exactly the same as last month on this card, but to be fair they were both good matches. I don't really like Aj and Christopher Daniels as a top tier team, as they have great chemistry in the ring, but no on the mic, the yjust don't seem to fit. Anyway, this should be a good one.

 

HANDICAP MATCH

"The War Machine" Rhino vs. Bobby Roode and Coach Scott D'Amore

 

I'm guessing scott will be staying out of the match until it's finish. If Rhino has indeed signed a new contract with TNA then this should be the start of his push back to the top.

 

TAG TEAM REMATCH

The James Gang vs. Team 3D

 

Both these teams are really really stale, however, somehow they pulled off a good match last month, so i hope they can keep it up. TNA definalty needs a few more tag teams though, because we're just going to be getting the same matches over and over

 

Kevin Nash vs. Chris Sabin

 

I'm hoping this match will be pretty good, i've yet to see Nash's X division debut, but it's not like he'll have to do that much out there, big guy vs little guy usually comes off well, and this one has been built up to be good.

 

X DIVISION RANKING MATCH ALEX SHELLEY VS. PETEY WILLIAMS VS. JAY LETHAL VS. SENSHI VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. SHARK BOY

 

No doubt this one will be the typical, lets throw alot of people in a match, and have spotfests galore, with everyone doing there finisher at some point. It's not good in cruiserweight division i don't know why the Xdivision thinks it'll be any different. Anyway, this is an elimination match, so as bad as matches with loads of guys are, it should come down to a one on one, probably Petey and Senshi, and the thought of Joe vs Senshi has me practically drueling

[Ryan]

it was Obvious that Edge was going to win his two hardcore matches this year

 

I guess i must of missed the Obviousness, and for the record, Edge > Samoa Joe *nods*

[Guest Chriscare]

Seriously guys do you need to turn everythig into the small old boring WWE vs TNA garb. Dave what's the problem? Is Mr P not allowed an opinion on the TNA product, I mean you call him mr Tunnelvision. Swap the product and you wo are identical.

 

I'm quite looking forward to this PPV but I daren't express an opinion on it just in case its the wrong one.

 

Cos it's clear he doesn't watch it, he even said he rarely does. Construcitve criticsm is good but i don't see the point bashing something just for the sake of it.

 

I guess i must of missed the Obviousness, and for the record, Edge > Samoa Joe *nods*

 

Do you not have a clue how wrestling works? Edge has been on a major push, what would be the point him losing to guys who are well past their prime. And seriouisly, stop trying to turn this thread into a WWE vs TNA debate

 

Anyway, it just goes to show you the children are included in WWE's fan base, but aren't in TNA's target audience

Edited June 16, 2006 by Chriscare

[Ryan]

stop trying to turn this thread into a WWE vs TNA debate

 

I didnt turn it into a WWE Vs. TNA thread, it was the fact that people didnt like my opinion & dont like the fact that i like WWE more than TNA that turned this thread into a WWE Vs. TNA thread, it was none of my doing.

 

Anyway' date=' it just goes to show you the children are included in WWE's fan base, but aren't in TNA's target audience[/quote']

 

Which needs to change if TNA want to get a bigger fanbase, IMO.

Edited June 16, 2006 by Ryan

[Guest Chriscare]

TNA's doesn't have the timeslot for a bigger fan base yet, it's on at 11pm. When it gets primetime i'm sure it'll do whatever young people like, gimmicks, women mud wrestling and what not.

 

and for the record, Edge > Samoa Joe *nods*

 

That's you trying to turn it into a WWE vs TNA debate.

[Ryan]

That's you trying to turn it into a WWE vs TNA debate.

 

No it isnt

 

WWE > TNA

 

That would be turning this thread into a WWE Vs. TNA thread, what i said wasnt.

 

now, back on topic.

[Guest Sav]

Is Mr P not allowed an opinion on the TNA product' date=' I mean you call him mr Tunnelvision. Swap the product and you wo are identical.[/quote']

Thing is, Mr P doesn't know **** about TNA or its wrestlers yet is commenting on each match as if he has a clue about what he's talking about, when he clearly doesn't.

I'm quite looking forward to this PPV but I daren't express an opinion on it just in case its the wrong one.

Either you haven't read his 'analysis' and haven't taken into account the fact he DOESN'T WATCH TNA AT ALL or you're just feeling sorry for little P, either way your comment makes no sense.

[Ryan]

he DOESN'T WATCH TNA AT ALL

 

I watch it when i get bored, doesnt really help though.

 

;)

 

 

oh and i do know alot about every TNA wrestler, you know i did watch WCW in 2001... ;)

[Guest The Great Ahmar]

So to what I think is going to go down at Slammiversary.

 

Kevin Nash vs. Chris Sabin

OMG MOTY. Sabin won't be able to carry this donut to a decent match I think. I agree with the predictions page "Will Nash injure himslef walking to the ring". He is going to hurt himslef, TNA put him in a ultimate X match to prove he is beter than the X division. Oh the joy of watching Nash (With his Grandad hips) climb the ropes to even get up there. Nash to destory Sabin.

 

 

NWA WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH

America's Most Wanted © vs. AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels

A good match is gurannteed. Agree with Mr.P AJ and Daniels is to boring it is over-used. So AMW to win please and then lose next month.

 

X DIVISION RANKING MATCH ALEX SHELLEY VS. PETEY WILLIAMS VS. JAY LETHAL VS. SENSHI VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. SHARK BOY

Petey Williams and Alex Shelley in the same match. :) Then Jay Lethal and Low-Ki/Senshi. A brilliant spotfest is going to go down folks. Sharky and Dutt better hold it up, or Zach Gowen must come back!

 

TAG TEAM REMATCH

The James Gang vs. Team 3D

I fasted forward the tape I watched from the last PPV at this match and will do the same again this PPV.

 

HANDICAP MATCH

"The War Machine" Rhino vs. Bobby Roode and Coach Scott D'Amore

Don't care anymore. Rhino needs to leave, he is doing some poor crap in TNA. He needs ECW more than it needs him at the moment. I bet his wished he never meet that plant pot now.

 

WHO IS TRULY UNSTOPPABLE?

"The Samoan Submission Machine" Samoa Joe vs. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner

Joe's gonna Kill him. Hope so, Joe is by the far the most over guy in TNA at the moment I watch just for him, (Well and Sting). Joe is going to win the belt next month like Dave said earlier in the Thread.

 

KING OF THE MOUNTAIN MATCH FOR THE NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

Christian Cage © vs. "The Monster" Abyss vs. Ron "The Truth" Killings vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Sting

Jarrett is going to win, I just feel it because he hasn't been chamo for a long time. Can se ehim winning here than losing to Joe next month. 2 Months later wins it back and has it for 6 months again. Abyss and Killings are going to look out of place I think. And why does Killings deserve to be in this match, what has he done all year!

 

Dahm, if this is this Sunday then TWC is going to show it next Sunday, 25th. So its this or ECW and Ultimate Warrior documentary and then Venagence or TNA then Venagance. Oh scarp that I'll watch TNa the next morning if its on, Oh Wait its my birthday that Morning. Oh the dielmma!!!

[Guest Slim Jim]

Well the last Impact before this show is yet another piece of very solid TV, and with some great angles and matches has made me very excited for this PPV.
