I just do not understand what all the TNA fans see in this Garrett Bischoff kid. He can barely perform a hip-toss without botching it so its way to early to be giving him a match on pay-per-view. The entire Against All Odds card is looking extremely lackluster with the exception of Shelley vs Aries.

My best guess is that this one ends in DQ/Count-Out since there is no way Garrett could pull out an entire full length match. What makes this even worse is that you can pretty much see the Gunner & Eric vs Hogan & Garrett writing on the wall, and would anyone even want to see that match either?

I don't know what it is about TNA that makes them think people would be willing to pay to see this match. But I guess their mentality is "why not?" the TNA fans are eating this talentless Garret Bischoff kid up. At least he's an "original," right? That's what TNA fans are always begging for. More air time for originals.

Garrett Bischoff is ok. People just hate him because he is Eric Bischoff's son. Look at Shane McMahon who turned out to be an ok wrestler. Garrett is just starting as a wrestler. Give him some time. Well I think Garrett will beat Gunner at Against All Odds.

AND BTW AJ Styles vs. Kazarian, Alex Shelly vs Austin Aries and the World Title match - Jeff Hardy vs. Roode vs. Storm vs. Bully Ray. Against All Odds card looks solid IMO.

I think they put Garrett in a really bad spot here. He should be in OVW working on his ringwork. Instead, he's getting put in a PPV match when, by all appearances, he isn't ready.

It's the same thing that did with David Flair.

The difference between Shane and them is that Shane never presented as a wrestler. I think it was alway emphasized that he was a non-wrestler.

Garret needs to be taken out by Gunner at Against All Odds.
This could lead to Garret being in OVW Training for a good 6 months or even more.
After he has his skills down, he can return to have a longer rivalry with Gunner. This is a classic "You injured me, i want Revenge" Storyline that can really help get Gunner AND Garret over!

But, knowing Hulk Hogan and Eric Bitchoff, they will let Garret win, setting up for a Hogan/Garret vs. Gunner/Bitchoff tag think it will draw, whist we all know it will not.

~IH's Prediction~
Garret Bischoff

And that's the problem. I don't have any issue with Garrett Bischoff becoming a wrestler. I just think he should learn how to wrestle BEFORE he's thrust into the spotlight. He should have spent a year or two in development like everyone else. At this point, he has no credibility whatsoever so I can't imagine why he's being portrayed as a face because I don't know why anyone would be cheering for him.

Wow.... I think we have a winner for the match where I go walk down to the gas station to buy a snack. I'm not watching this trash they call a "match". Garrett sucks, but GUNNER? What does TNA's booking team even SEE in this guy? Even though he's in obvious need of improvement, I'd rather see Garrett go over here because Gunner is a lost cause. There's no point in pushing him anymore. Give it up already, he's awful! This will easily be the worst match of the night. Few people are going to care. Bischoff moves on to his next filler feud while he and Hogan eat up more time that could be used for guys who need to get over, and Gunner hopefully fades into obscurity where he belongs. It could be worse though, they could have made Gunner face Eric Young or something.

DAGGER'S PREDICTION
Garrett Bischoff will defeat Gunner.

 

[Kenny Powers]

Yeah I seriously doubt Gunner can win this one. Isn't Hogan in Garrett Bischoff's corner and Eric is in Gunner's corner right? I wonder if Flair will be with Gunner. Either way, it seems Hogan and the powers that be are contempt with shoving Garrett Bischoff down our throats whether we like it or not. Wouldn't be surprised to see Garrett Bischoff win this one.

i agree somewhat on Bischoff, that and it seems that people just dont care for him and dont have much of a reason to care. he needs to work ALOT on his wrestling skills, but, with that said, i think he does have Shane like potential if he works hard.

As for the match card, the Styles and Kazarian match should be good, same with Aries and Shelly and that may steal the show. the four way will likely be a typical tna main event type deal. my want would be for the ref to not get bumped and for James Storm to pin Bully Ray and become Champion which would then set up the big re-match of Storm vs. Roode, but i fear that the ref will get bumped, either Roode will cheat and retain or Hardy wins the match with Sting counting the pin. as much as i do want to see hardy as champion again later, i really want to see a good feud with Roode and Storm with Storm coming out of it with a long title run.
