Isn't Storm on the shelf? or at least has to be cautious? I'll take Bully Ray here.

Bully Ray has been a revelation as the mouthpiece of Immortal. His heel run has been nothing short of masterful. He is one of the guys that truly understands what being a professional wrestler means. He would be fun to watch in the main event at Bound For Glory. With all that in mind, James Storm is going to win this match. If TNA does the right thing, Storm vs. Roode in the BFGS finals happens. If that match doesn't happen, I'd be confused. A Beer Money match with Storm and Roode would be killer. It would help get both into the main event picture immediately. Roode would propel into the main event at BFG, and if Storm looks strong in defeat, it sets up a feud with two fresh guys in the main event scene after BFG. A Storm vs. Roode feud could be a big opportunity for TNA to show people that they finally know what the hell they are doing. It all starts here at No Surrender.

Storm vs Ray let's see I think it's rather obvious that Storm is winning this match so we can all get what we want which is Storm vs Roode. I think Ray is gonna go on and have a match with Anderson at BFG, at least that's what it looks like now.

As I said in the Gunner vs Roode thread, I'm expecting this to be a solid match. I'm a fan of both men and wouldn't have a problem with either of them winning but if TNA goes the route I think they're going, then Storm will win this match. And if Roode wins his match against Gunner, then I expect Roode and Storm in the finals of the BFG Series. This could lead to the end of Beer Money and because of what we saw after the AJ/Daniels match perhaps the end of Fortune. Gotta say, I'm pretty stoked.

 

[This Is My Name Thank You]

I want Bully Ray to win. I think Storm is better than Roode out of the two but I don't want them to feud with each other. The should just go their seperate way's and just respect each other and if they face each other then they face each other. We don't need any more goku and vegita's in TNA. Meaning we'll see another AJ/Daniels type of thing going on. Not needed at this moment. Just have Bully Ray get the win as he has been that damn good. I said this before everyone started to think of Bully Ray being serious, is that he is going to be CHAMPION, and I got the feeling this will happen at BFG. The match will be good as both men can hold their own solo wise. This will lead to Bully Ray winning the whole thing and a feud with Kurt will start. The feud will be about Bully not wanting Kurt having anything to do with Immortal; so he wants to bully (no pun intended) Kurt away for Immortal. So i have Ray winning this and Ray being in the ME at BFG against Kurt Angle.


Has anyone else noticed that the theme for No Surrender has an Captain America feel to it? An also a Bash at the Beach feel to? Or is that just me??

bully ray is gonna win they need a heel in the finals plus storm isnt 100% plain and simple imo

Man, wish this was the final instead. It's a shame James Storm has picked up an injury because it sort of gives the result away IMO. It's unlikely TNA would want Storm to compete twice in the same night knowing he has an injury. I'm dissapointed personally because I would have been fully behind Storm to win the BFG Series at No Surrender. But now it seems obvious he doesn't have much of a chance, that's not to say Bully Ray wouldn't have won anyway.

There's no doubting Bully Ray is the most deserving wrestler in TNA of getting a World Title shot. Over the last year he has done more than anyone in pro wrestling to improve his character. Think back to this time last year, he was still doing the same thing he'd been doing for years and years, dominating the tag scene. Now he's most likely the best heel in professional wrestling. He certainly is IMO anyway.

I'm not sure what type of match we're going to get here, as I'm not sure how bad Storm's injury is. Perhaps Bully Ray will just kick the crap out of Storm backstage and take the easy route to the final? Would fit well with Bully's character and prevents Strom from getting injured further. Whatever happens, I see Bully Ray deservedly advancing.

 

[Dagger Dias]

Bully Ray has decent odds here, and he nearly got my predicted victory. The thing is, it's like I mentioned in the Roode/Gunner match thread. All of the signs are there for Beer Money to go over in these matches so they can not only steal the show but also put each other over in the #1 contendership match. Then the perfect way to set up a title feud between the two would be there when the one who loses gets jealous of the winner after they celebrate. The match should be pretty good. Bully Ray isn't the best singles wrestler, but Storm will be able to get a good match out of him. Storm wins, then goes on to face Roode in the #1 contendership match because that is by far the best potential matchup.

DAGGER'S PREDICTION
James Storm will defeat Bully Ray.
