IMPACT Wrestling LD for 08.04.11

[It's Damn Real!]

That's because Hogan and Bischoff are the top heels and everything revolves around them, even when they're not on TV. This superstable of heels isn't working incredibly well, mainly because TNA does it WAY too often. It's their fallback plan and I can't remember the last time there was ONE guy as their top heel. Also they don't really have a single top face and haven't since AJ was champion before Hogan got there. That doesn't really work for casual audiences because you need a bunch of backstory to get a lot of the show.

The last singles top heel was Angle, but it didn't last long. He joined MEM.

 

[Vincent Michaels]

Worst Roll-up EVER.

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah, the co-founder of the Beautiful People, who picked on everyone and put bags on peoples heads for being too ugly complaining about being picked on? Hilarious!

Also we're supposed to buy that someone that looked like that in high school and was an athlete and into wrestling in the mid 90s was picked on? What imaginary high school did she go to?

 

[klunderbunker]

What is that, the 3rd rollup/cradle pin tonight?

Art school, apparently.

i think so

Exactly. The heels drive things, but you need a top face to go with them. Having both be by committee or as part of a stable and being non-wrestlers doesn't really work. Vince could do it but he always had a big bad to be his fighter. Also he was against an undisputed top face. That worked pretty well.

 

[klunderbunker]

What does it say when a match runs 7:23 and is the longest match I can remember in a long time?

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Holy shit, this has only been on for an hour?

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Aries, baby! Time to save the night.

 

[Joe's Gonna Kill You]

[Doubleo13]

Shelley vs Aries this should be good

 

[klunderbunker]

Holy shit, this has only been on for an hour?

I was thinking the same.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Austin Aries — INSTANT boo magnet.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Why the hell wasn't this match advertised? Would have drawn better than fuckin' DEVON.

[klunderbunker]

If I never see another downward spiral style move it'll be too soon.

[Doubleo13]

Ok that was a cool a spinning figure four
