I didn't realize Kenny had such a deep back story. I was impressed by his win this thursday, but this guy is no rookie! I hope he goes all the way...

Yeah, King was also a contestant for the Second Season of WWE's Tough Enough, where he lasted till the end, but ended up being the Runner Up, the fact that WWE didn't hire him anyways is beyond stupid, they missed on cashing in on a new top star.


Ring of Honor wanted King to stay, so they basically had him and his partner win the Tag Team belts, but that is long overdue and King has already ascended to another level, Tag Belts don't mean shit to him, Going to TNA was a right move, especially now since TNA has made major improvements on their show.

He was a runner up on Tough Enough!? And they STILL let him go!? All they want are BIG guys like Ryback! Uggg! Goldberg reincarnated!

Speaking of Tough Enough, what happened to the winner from last season?

...btw Impact IS alot better these days. There backing the right guys. Aries, Storm and even Roode! I even like how they bought back that old Samoa Joe and Angle beef. Joe is the Gulliest dude IN Impact Wresting..."fact!" LOL!!!!!

He was Future Enedevoured, the curse of the Tough Enough Winner lives on! notice how the Runner Ups always end up with better futures?


ROH has officially held up the titles. Jim Cornette, This isn't MMA, or Smokey Mountain Wrestling, get your head out of your ass, you're causing your talent to leave.

TNA President Dixie Carter Announced that those who lost their Qualifying Matches are going to be brought back to face each other, the winner out of that match will be the 8th Qualifier in the Tournament, I'm hoping it's Rubix/Jigsaw.

Oh yeah, King & Aries Reunion - Aries was King's Manager back when they were both in ROH



I apologize for the amount of Fanboyism for King, but he's a great talent that I've been watching since he debuted on ROH, hoping that company would push him like no other, but they ended up keeping him in the Tag Division, now he's in the Big Leagues and hoping he did get signed.. I'm assuming Aries will pull some strings since he's in good standing with TNA.

Just finished watching Destination X, I have to say this Years was fairly different, Last year's it was all high flying, this one had alot of normal matches, I'm not saying it was bad, just felt different, overall I enjoyed this PPV, though it had a moment were I raged due to the outcome. Here are my complete thoughts of TNA's Destination X 2012 PPV.

* Highlight
+ Good
~Neutral
- Bad


+ Mason Andrews Def. Rubix,Dakota Darsow, And Lars Only To be come 8th Qualifier in the X-Division Championship Tournament.
Really good showcase from these guys except Lars Only, He was a bit sloppy and from what I can tell, I think he was nervous..either way Mason Andrews Picks up the win and gets the 8th spot, although I wanted Rubix to win, I'll give it a pass.

+ Mason Andrews Def. Kid Kash And Advances to the tournament finals
not gonna say this was a classic match, or epic match, but it was entertaining and I was impressed on how Andrews could still perform great after back to back matches.. Kid Kash and his heel antics are always great to see. Andrews wins via roll-up, which I had no problem with.

+ Kenny King Def. Douglas Williams and Advances to the tournament Finals
Great Match, didn't feel like a high flying match, but it was great, both men were showcased greatly and Doug puts the young guy over. King was way over with the Crowd..lots of Kenny King Chants.

+ Sonjay Dutt Def. Rashad Cameron and Advances to the tournament finals
Great showing by Dutt, the crowd was hot for him and he delivered, Rashad had his moments but was nothing special, Dutt wins via foot stomp and moves on, Although Dutt may have gotten injured as he was constantly grabbing one of his arms and seemed to be in alot of pain when the match ended.

~ Zima Ion Def. Flip Cassanova and advances to the tournament finals
This match annoyed the fuck out of me, it's one thing if you're a high flyer but when you overuse a flip it gets annoying and lame.. Cassanova was doing nothing but flips and was being wreckless, yeah I get his name, but this was overkill, I'm glad Ion beat this scrub.

+ Samoa Joe Def. Kurt Angle in a Bound For Glory Series Match(Winner gets points depending how he won)
Great Match, reliving a great rivalry when they first clashed, Joe wins via rear naked choke on Angle who refuses to tap and just passes out, Joe wins when the Ref calls the match after Angle passed out, Joe gets 10 points and is now in the lead in the BFG Series by one point(James Storm has 36, Joe Has 37) Hey it's about time they push Joe Properly.

+ AJ Styles Def. Christopher Daniels in a Last Man Standing Match
I've seen these guys feud over a million times, I just wanted it to end and plus, their last year rivalry matches were horrendous, but this match shocked me on how good it was, great action by both guys, both bust each other open, Crowd was into it, and AJ Styles wins by a Styles Clash off the Entrance Rail to a table.

- Zima Ion Def. Masson Andrews, Sonjay Dutt, and Kenny King in a Ultimate X Match for the X-Division Championship.
This match was ok for what it was, everyone but Ion did their stuff, I have no clue how this guy was the one to get the belt, he lacks mic skills and recently put out another X-Division Wrestler out of action for a year due to his sloppy work, he wins by spraying hairspray in Dutts face and grabs the belt, I raged hard, Kenny King was my pick and he was the only one who stood out. Hope this isn't the end of Kenny King on TNA, after the match, Ion cut a horrendous promo trying to be heel. Lame.

* Austin Aries Def. Robert Roode(c) For The TNA World Heavyweight Championship
Ion winning the X-Title left a bitter taste in my mouth, but this Main event knocked that right out, great reaction for Aries, good heel reaction for Roode, overall a good match, both men worked their styles and did what they could to outsmart one another, Roode tries cheating 3 times,Pushing the ref, Low blowing Aries, and hitting Aries with the belt while the ref was down, Aries overcame that and kicked Roode right in the center of his head, and dropped him with a Vicious Brain Buster and Wins to become the New World Champ, Crowd explodes, I was jumping up down in joy, In one year, Aries went from a Guy fighting for a job to becoming the Top Dog. Congrats To A Double and Kudos to TNA for executing this Main Event nicely.


Other Good Things

+ Crowd was Alive
+ Better Commentary when Taz ain't there
+ Backstage Segment with The X-division Qualifiers
+ Jesse Sorensen Injury Update & Promo, The same guy Ion injured 5 months ago, He's gonna be way over when he comes back
+ Austin Aries Backstage Promo
+ Solid Booking and Structure


Other Bad Things

- Zema Ion's Heel Promo after winning the Title
- Crowd got annoying over chanting "YES YES YES"
- Sloppy Start in the Ultimate X Match Due to Sonjay Getting Injured.

Yet another PPV that fully entertained me through and through despite the few flaws, this was a great PPV and for once, I did buy the PPV this time, and it was worth it. I give it a 8.5/10. Can't wait to tune in for Impact this week!

Kid's hardcore for sure. I'm sure he put Mason to the test...

Dutt's finisher is gruesome! It takes skill to pull it of without severly injuring your opponent.

I don't like either of these guys that much...

My thoughts exactly! Joe is one of my all time TNA favorites. And he deserves the spotlight again. Storm is awesome, but if anybody deserves to win the BFG Series, it's Joe! The two of them would make a great finale!

EPIC! Yeah that Brain Buster IS vicious. One of my favorite moves. And he delivers it with percision! I didn't like Aries at first, but I respected his skill. But that changed after he went threw everyone in the X Division months ago. And when he put all on the line for the World Title, I knew this "character" had balls of steel! Sounds like IMPACT came threw with an EPIC WIN!!!

Great coverage as usall, Zeroz! I'm looking forward to Impact as well. The triumphith return of...AUSTIN ARIES!!!

Later, homie...

Raw was atrocious. Tad bit worse than 2010 Raws.. mother of god AJ needs acting lessons..her facial expressions made her look like a goof.
Eve promo with Punk was bitter, but true..Punk has been overshadowed by everything that I forgot that he was champion.

anywho..

I didn't watch the PPV, and Just by looking at the results, I'm glad I didn't. The Raw MITB Main events? of course Cena needs to reign supreme and close the shows..

I didn't get to watch Raw, but I was watching clips on Youtube and I can see it was a lot better than the last few weeks, But that isn't saying much, Highlights for me was of Course Rikishi Returning and squashing Slater, and then dancing with his sons afterwards, Great Moment.

I also Liked the Ziggs & Y2J segment, Looking forward to their potential feud which may lead to Y2J eventually losing and then disappears for awhile for his Fozzy Tour or W/e. I'm ok with it. As long as they stop jobbing out Ziggler, and not have him go through the same thing with Bryan, in which he jobs out so many times, then cashes in and has a mediocre title reign.

Ziggs Vs Y2J Promo

Spoiler:

Rikishi Returns

Spoiler:

I can die a happy man now. Was good to see my man Rikishi again. Even better to see him dancing with his sons. I really wish they would get a push.

Austin Aries is god... and this story tells you why.

Someone Turned Heel tonight =D

and APA + Lita + Heath Slater selling the clothesline from hell like a bauss = Epic.

The best parts of the show^ plus the sig damn yell lol. What im wondering is the punk Rock gonna last till royal rumble?

AK + General Manger = Yes! Yes! Yes..!

Velvet Sky Has been Released by TNA via Request.

Damn shame.

TNA needs to slow down on the Aces and Eights storyline, it's overkill when none of the matches(not counting the knockouts) end clean.

Kenny King is back, most likely on TNA officially since he's gonna be in the main event next week with Aries vs Roode and Zima Ion.

Joey Ryan is God. Nuff said.

I'm happy for King. I'm NOT happy for Velvet! Well, as long as Mickey James is still there. She got 2 F's. Awesome FINISHER, and an awesome FIGURE. I like'em thick! :lol!:

WWE replayed the HHH Vs Lesnar segment like a hundred times , and also kept showing footage of a accident on the side of the tron, like that was more important than the show. Good lord that was stupid, and here we go with the social media whoring again(tout)


Punk is def a heel, the boos are getting louder and louder, but it was nice of him to bury the shit out of lawler.

You can tell Orton stopped taking roids, he lost a bit of muscle mass, also, he shaved that pedo beard. I just hope in the 60 days he was off, he was able to find his mic skills and charisma.

and A.W's joke about Kobe was hilarious, too bad vinny mac may bury him for it cause apparently it offended people.

ok raw, typical ending.

Yeah they killed that HHH/Lesner segment. And the burning building bit was unecessary. Punk is awesome as a heel, Orton looks like he lost weight AND age, and I fell asleep before the rest. So...meh...

Yo Momma! *Throws Shoe*

A.W is awesome.

I missed Raw because I was chilling with friends but I want to hear this Kobe joke. What exactly was said?

LMMFAO!!!!!!!!
Never mind. I just looked it up xD

With no Surprise, turns out this entire time we've been watching a G show, not PG..G..a fucking kids show. and Vinny Mac even admitted it went too far.

A caller mentioned that Raw and the pay-per-views seem to have become edgier. He asked whether there's been an intentional move to bring back double entendres from the Monday Night Wars era. Vince said he sees it as an evolvement, and feels the writing of the shows have been considerably better. He said he doesn't feel there's a topic they can't touch while doing it in a more acceptable way. He said they've been more G than PG, but he said you can stretch things. A caller asked whether they took it too far on the G-rating side, and Vince agreed with that assessment.

......................................................................................
WTH? Why make a show that's more suited to the little kids than your main demographic? The males from 18-30 years old? The kids who can't even purchase tickets on their own are the ones they are making the show for. SMH.

Booker T is the new Smackdown GM.. CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKAAAAAA!

Oh yeah and...

Wow that crowd was horrendous, hell even HBK barely got a loud pop, this show felt dragged and I only enjoyed a few things.

- Wade Barrett Promo
- Damien Sandow Owning Clay
- Daniel Bryan Working the crowd like a boss, did a fantastic job waking those fans up.
- Daniel Bryan vs Cena, good main event match, I wasn't expecting Danielson winning so I'll take it for what it's worth.

The way they ended raw was bad, You can make Big Slow as "monstrous" as you can, but it's too late and he's boring. CM Punk telling Lawler what we already know. Please do not make Punk into a whiner wwe.

This Raw was mediocre.

Wade's promo was killer and we can always count on Daniel to get the crowd pumped...
