My Rating 7.5/10 A typical TNA but the final matchs were better then usual. Alot of the same on the PPV where TNA only puts 3 really good tires on the car and one flat tire.
Best Parts
1. Samoa/Dinero it started slow and boring but Samoa & Dinero heated up and it got better. Hopefully this fued is finshed as you can only find a diamond once in awhile.
2. Angle/Jarrett yes it was good but at times it felt like it was going on forever and was boring plus some botched moved by Angle. The finsh was weak, Karen did not slam the door on Angle hard it was weak.
3. TNA Title Match. It was good but the finsh was weak, when Hogan came out because of how slow he is and his showboating it took forever. The finsh should of came off as bang bang! but came off kinda slow.
50/50 Parts
1. Devon/Anarquia. Ok match nothing special tho. Why did Devon lay out Anarquia after the match(yes their rivalry on Impact) but Anarquia showed no selling of the beating later in the show.
2. Xscape Match. Started good but the finsh was boring. Generation Me(who still are not impressive. Yes some cool moves but show me more, get over). Kendrick(blah.) Not enough Robbie E in match and Sabin/Lethal/Red are mostly MIA in TNA as of late.
3. Lethal Lockdown Match. Typical lethal lockdown match. Kinda more before the door closes, someone bleeds, two people go to the roof. Only really good thing that comes from this is Christopher Daniels he was awesome in the ring and jumpin off the roof. Flair bleed alot!!! wow! But the finsh with Flair submitting to a weak looking arm bar was lame
Worst Parts
1. Video Packages, they were not needed.
2. Eric Bischoff in ring. And the point of this was...... He talked about nothing and nothing came from the nothing he said. "We want wrestling" chants were funny here.
3. Tag Match. Was expecting better then I saw. The match litteraly put me to sleep. Really it did. Watched the rest of the PPV the following morning. Stenier/Crimson team is boring and lame. Ink Ink needs some energy, British Invasion & Eric/OJ needed to show more. Everyone in this match(except Stenier/Crimson who never impress me) always look good on Xplosion. This match sucked.
4. Knockout Title Match. Ok so Mickie is hurt, why not change plans or something. You teased a Madison/Tara split why not have Tara beat Madison up for awhule in the match or Tara lay out Mickie and put her hair on the line for Rayne's title. Only good thing out of this match was Mickie's throwing Rayne into the cage(which was the entire 30 seconds of the match) which got some good Rayne booty shots lol.
5. Morgan/Hernandez boring as all thier other matchs, nothing special. Mexican America acted like goofs on the outside too. Mexican America's promo before the match was laughable too, instead of making the fans hate everyone laughed at them. Sarita teamed with Rostia is a loss, Sarita is talented but not here, plz get her out of the titanic aka Mexican America. Oh joy another Velvet/Sarita fued what happened to Velvet/Winter/Love fued.
6. Brooke Hogan on camera. ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!
Should you order the replay or buy the DVD? Ahh sure, Angle/Jarrett could of been really good if Angle did not botch the impressive spots and if Karen would of done her job better. Lethal Lockdown match was hit & miss.
