[Thriller Ant]

I won't be watching live, but I will be keeping an eye on TNA since I'm going to a house show in a few weeks

 

[ABMorales787]

Absolutely pumped for this episode. Are all the matches above confirmed for the week? Because TNA is promoting Genesis as a 2 week thing.

 

[Danger Burger]

Looking forward to this. Good matches at least, and thats all I ask of TNA.

Looking forward to some new talent too. #BufftheStuff

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Unfortunately, I'm on delay for tonight, much as I want to watch live. I won't be getting home until after 10, so enjoy the live show, boys!

This is what I'm wondering too.

Angle vs Roode and Sting vs. EC3 are both confirmed tonight from what I can tell on the Impact Wrestling website.

I would think Gunner vs Storm would happen tonight to set up a title match for next week.

It also says more matches will be announced so maybe this is the card for tonight and they'll announce a card for next week?

I wish it was more clear but wither way I intend to watch tonight.

 

[Cereal Killer]

This is going to be a great show. Looking forward to all those matches...on sunday.

Have you considered the internet?

 

[Vega]

Have you considered the internet?

It's until 4AM in England, and school next day I guess.

I may watch.

 

[Lowdown]

Can't watch it live tonight fellas. Got a date with the Kings vs Blues. The DVR is set though.

I'm keeping an eye on that game in hopes the Blues lose and don't catch up to the Blackhawks in the standings.

TNA is my priority tonight though.

 

[klunderbunker]

Nice opening.

 

[klunderbunker]

In case you didn't get enough Dixie last week.

 

[Galvatron]

The first of 97,349,420 Dixie segments this evening.

 

[Danger Burger]

It's until 4AM in England, and school next day I guess.

I may watch.

Same in Ireland Vega. I usually stream it over breakfast the next day. My madness was with the idea of waiting till sunday!

 

[Galvatron]

It got him to Ring Of Honor.

 

[klunderbunker]

Corporate champion
Loud mouthed boss
Fans chant for a guy who got screwed out of the title
Champion has two belts
Annoying guy with unspecified powers who rarely does anything but follow orders

At least they stopped trying to hide it.

 

[Slash-LN]

Dixie says something about a new chapter.

Crowd: "We want AJ."

Dixie: "I hear you chanting for a new chapter."

Wonderful heel tactic there.

From NXT:

Bo Dallas: I know you all love me.

Fans: BOOO!

Dallas: Close. Actually it's pronounced Bo.

 

[Galvatron]

Forever and a day is 2 months and 1 day. I know from experience.

From NXT:

Fans: BOOO!

Dallas: Close. Actually it's pronounced Bo.

That's wonderful!
I love stuff like that.

 

[klunderbunker]

Soooooo......Dixie is in charge of almost every heel in the company?

 

[Fire Marshall Bill]

I can't be the only one who thought it would've been funny if Magnus paused on "millions" in his promo and totally mocked the Rock.

 

[klunderbunker]

He looks like Rick Martel.

 

[ABMorales787]

Jesus, for such a large building, it looks pretty freakin' small.
