I went to a TNA house show in Charlottesville VA yesterday

Getting Noticed By Management
So this was my first TNA house show, I wasn't sure about going since Charlottesville is 90 minutes away from where I live, but I am glad I did it was AWESOME! I bought floor seats for $50 bucks each for my family (7 of us), the event started at 6pm, but since I bought the $50 tickets I was able to be there at 4pm to meet the wrestlers, have autograph signings, my son was able to help Don West sell action figures, Don West in turn then gave the three action figures for free to my son for helping him. We were also able to go back stage to have Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, and Samoa Joe sign them. It was awesome because out of everyone in the crowd my 7 year old was picked for this and he was so excited.

They had a brown bag special which was basically 4 TNA DVD's, a Impact T-shirt, Action figure, and a TNA Live all for $20 bucks. We were able to go backstage and meet other wrestlers and and go back upstairs so my niece, and wife can get autographs of Mickie James and Velvet Sky (sitting together)

Mickie James was a delight and very nice, Velvet was nice too but seemed rushed as it was getting closer to show time. (note* the outfit she is wearing isn't what she ended up wrestling in)

We also got to see other wrestlers in the back before the event started..

Keep in mind we did ALL this from 4pm to 6pm.. in my next post below I will go over what matches happend. We had all the Wrestlers sign out TNA Live book that we got from our brown bag deal.


Angelina Love = She was very nice and smiled a lot.

Alex Shelley & Robbie E = Alex didn't say much but Robbie E ws cooler than cool even joked with both my kids and made them fist pump he was awesome for them.

Rob Terry & Matt Morgan = You could tell that Morgan was the leader of the group.. he was very kind to the boys and everyone, Rob Terry was quiet. In person Matt Morgan is a beast.

Main Event
Jeff Hardy & James Storm Def Bully Ray & Bobby Roode (this actually started as a singles match with Hardy and Roode but then Bully ran in to attack Hardy then Storm came in to help and was changed to a Tag Team Match... (I guess Teddy Long called in)

THis was from 6pm to 8:10pm...

After the event, familys could take pictures in the Impact ring with Storm and Hardy for $20 .. (not individual one photo for a whole family with Storm and Roode while in the ring) Pretty cool stuff..

I been at WCW, ECW, and WWF/E shows and I have to admit ... this didn't have the flare of WCW or WWE with the pyro.. but it more than made up for it by the interactions with the wrestlers it was MORE than worth it.

I started this thread with a pic of my oldest son helping Don West... I will end it with a pic of my Youngest son only 4 years old helping Don West too.. he was holding the TNA Live book and Mickie/Velvet Flags.

I would recommend this to anyone.. we had a very nice time and the crowd was really into it as a result.
