Friday
Impact got a 1.0.
Smackdown
Date: January 11, 2013
Location: American Airlines Arena, Miami, Florida
Commentators: Josh Matthews, John Bradshaw Layfield
We'll begin with a little history here: twenty years ago today, a show called Monday Night Raw premiered. To celebrate, tonight the main event is a last man standing match with Big Show facing Alberto Del Rio as his major face push continues, near Santa killing aside. Also, for the first time in longer than I can remember, Rock is on Smackdown tonight. Let's get to it.
The opening video is all about the Rock which is the right decision. Oh and we're in his hometown too. Show vs. Del Rio gets a bit of time at the end.
Here's Booker to open the show. He doesn't like being one upped by Raw with Ziggler vs. Cena, so tonight it's Orton vs. Cesaro. Rock is here too, and we go to a screen shot of Del Rio vs. Show as Booker does what is clearly a voiceover saying it'll be a last man standing match for the title. I wonder what they changed there.
Anyway Big Show comes out sans music to yell at Booker for his decision. He goes to the floor to get a mic (Show to the guys at ringside: Somebody get me a mic. There are ten of you over there. What do you all do? That's a really good question actually.) and accuses Booker of playing up to the Latino population here in Miami.
Show says Del Rio is beneath him and people like the ones here in Miami don't deserve heroes. Show: There are no Latino heroes. I'm not touching that one. He says an Irishman couldn't stop him, a Latino can't stop him and a viper can't stop him. Show gets back in the ring and grabs Booker by the throat but here's Del Rio for the save. He dropkicks Show into the corner and hits the running enziguri to send Show to the floor.
We get a classic Rock on Smackdown moment from the post 9/11 Smackdown with Rock hitting Stasiak with a Rock Bottom to beat him in three seconds.
Randy Orton vs. Antonio Cesaro
Not bad for an opener. As he comes to the ring, Cesaro says in an inset interview that he'll be in the Rumble. Cesaro pounds away to start and hits some European uppercuts before being sent to the floor. Orton clotheslines him down on the floor and we take a break. Back with Cesaro holding Randy in a chinlock before getting two off a clothesline. There's the gutwrench suplex for two more and Cesaro punches away in the corner.
We get another quick chinlock but Orton fights out and gets two off his rollup out of the corner. A Michinoku Driver of all things gets two for Antonio as JBL gets on Josh's case for mentioning the word complacent when talking about Cesaro. Orton snaps off his powerslam but gets tossed into the air for the uppercut for two. Randy escapes a whip into the corner and hits his backbreaker followed by the Elevated DDT. He loads up the RKO and here's the Shield for the DQ at 5:48 shown of 9:18.
The TripleBomb takes Orton down and the Shield stands tall.
3MB talks about being in the Rumble. Slater called his mom and was told that they have a ten percent chance of winning. Apparently they're dealing with Sheamus tonight.
Punk and Heyman are at Sun Life Stadium, home of Wrestlemania 28 and the Miami Hurricanes football team. Punk talks about how big a fan he is of Rock and his football career. He pulls out a Johnson jersey #94 (Rock's old jersey) and says he's a big college football aficionado.
He wanted to come to where Rock played back in the day, but that was in the Orange Bowl which is demolished and gone. That's like WWE now, because this isn't Rock's WWE anymore. It's Punk's WWE now and Rock has no place in it. Punk says Rock can come back to Miami, but he can never go home again. Good stuff here and it's always nice to see them outside of the arena.
Del Rio says Big Show has no idea what the Latino people are like and says he'll win the title tonight.
Dolph Ziggler/AJ vs. Natalya/Great Khali
The guys start things off with Ziggler quickly getting chopped a few times. Off to the girls and AJ jumps on Khali's back. Natalya takes her down and rams AJ's head into the mat a few times. Nattie loads up the Sharpshooter but AJ bites her finger. They head to the corner where AJ bites Natalya's ear before hitting a Sliced Bread #2 for the pin at 2:43. Nothing here but AJ craziness.
Post match Langston runs over Khali and hits the Big Ending on Hornswoggle. Freaking sweet.
Punk is still at the stadium and talks about how Rock sounds like a superhero returning to save the people. The people don't deserve to be saved though. Rather they deserve to rot, because Punk is better than the people. Heyman says that's Rock's vision, but in CM Punk's WWE, it doesn't matter what Rock's vision is. Punk takes off the jersey and drops it on the ground before walking away. Still awesome stuff here.
Another classic Rock moment shows us Rock N Sock Connection hijinks.
Here's Rocky to an eruption. He shows us his arm and the goosebumps on it before saying FINALLY. Rock says Flo Rida is here and says this is a very special show. He talks about Raw and hitting the Rock Bottom on Punk but tonight the champ isn't here. Rock talks about being in school in Miami and football practice at a field that the local fans recognize the name of. Rock says that it feels good to be home, but the real home he's going to is the Royal Rumble where he'll win the title again.
He asks the people if they want to have fun tonight and here are the Rhodes Scholars to interrupt. Sandow introduces himself and Cody to the crowd and Cody says they they don't think Rock should be here. They're the ones that are going to be champions soon, so it should be their time. Rock talks about how the Scholars came down here (WHAT) to the People's ring (WHAT) on the Rock's show (WHAT) dressed like that (you get the drill) with a dead caterpillar on Cody's lip. Rock goes to say something but has to ask what in the name of sweet tap dancing Jesus is on Cody's face.
Sandow wants to ask Rock three questions, and if Rock gets them right, he can stay. If he gets them wrong, he has to leave. Rock says bring those questions but Cody says there's no point since Rock went to Miami (one of the best academic schools in the country). The first question is who was the 19th President of the United States, which Rock correctly identifies as Rutherford B. Hayes. Sandow: That is correct. Rock: The Rock knows his 19th century.
Cody asks what movie won Best Picture in 1993. Rock says it wasn't Tooth Fairy but rather Schindler's List. Sandow is about to ask the third question but Rock has one for Damien instead. If Sandow gets it right, he gets a prize from Rock and Miami. The question is what happens when you combine a geological aggregate of minerals with its lowest form. That would be a Rock Bottom says Damien. Rock says exactly, and there's his Rock Bottom. Cody and Rock have a staredown and Cody is ready to fight, so here's a spinebuster and the People's Elbow for him. Incredibly entertaining segment here with Rock giving two guys a rub.
Sheamus vs. 3MB
Good old fashioned handicap match here. The Band does have to tag though. Slater starts but immediately bails to the floor where his teammates join him. They try to charge in at once but only Slater goes in, catching a Brogue Kick for the pin at 45 seconds.
HELL NO vs. Prime Time Players
Darren and Daniel start things off and slug it out in the corner. Off to Titus for a release slam but he charges into a pair of boots from Bryan in the corner. Kane comes in and cleans house, getting two off a sidewalk slam. The Players break up a double chokeslam attempt but a single one gets the pin on Darren at 2:22. Just a squash.
Eve vs. Kaitlyn is confirmed for Raw. Again.
We recap the opening segment.
Smackdown World Title: Big Show vs. Alberto Del Rio
Last man standing and Show is defending. Show starts with a hard chop and a slam to put Del Rio down for a short count. Del Rio comes back with a superkick to the stomach but gets chopped right back down again. Show pulls out a table but sets it up between the announcers' table and the ring instead of putting it inside. Rather than saving it for later Show pulls Del Rio to the floor and casually slams him through the table for a six count.
Back in and Del Rio kicks Show in the ribs to knock a chair out of his hands. Del Rio GOES OFF on Show with some chair shots, showing more emotion in a ten second stretch than he's shown in the last two years combined. He goes for the cross armbreaker but Show picks him up and carries him to the ropes. Show tries to throw him to the floor but Del Rio hooks the armbreaker over the ropes for a few moments before finally dropping him.
The fall from the apron gets a seven count on Del Rio as Show rests his arm. We take a break and come back with Alberto hitting a running kick to Show's arm on the floor. Show gets in a shot to break the momentum and slides in another table. Del Rio fires off more kicks to the ribs and dropkicks Show through the table to a big reaction. I'll give Alberto this: he isn't backing down.
That only gets a seven as well so Del Rio jumps on Show's back. After about thirty seconds Show flips Del Rio over but Alberto fires off whatever strikes he can get off to stagger the big man, including a pair of boots in the corner. Del Rio charges into a chokeslam though, drawing an eight count. A headbutt puts Del Rio on the floor and there's the spear through the barricade as Show is known to do.
Alberto gets up AGAIN at nine this time so Show sends him into the ring again. The WMD connects clean.....but Del Rio gets up at eight AGAIN. The crowd is losing it in a hurry. Del Rio is down at nine but he was up enough to stop the count. Show picks up the steps but misses a charge into the post and drives the steps into his own head.
Alberto blasts Show with the steps and then hits him with them again in the bad shoulder. A THIRD shot finally puts Show down behind the announce table and in a brilliant move, Del Rio turns the announce table over on top of Show. Show can't escape and Del Rio wins the title at 14:08 shown of 17:38. Ricardo can barely even make the announcement from being so excited.

Genesis 2013
Date: January 13, 2013
Location: Impact Zone, Orlando, Florida
Commentators: Todd Keneley, Tazz, Mike Tenay
It's the first PPV of 2013 and the first PPV of a new system for TNA. Starting this year, the company is only going to have four traditional three hour shows a year, starting with Genesis here tonight. The main event is Hardy defending against Aries and Roode in a triple threat elimination match. The second biggest match is......Sting vs. Doc I guess? This isn't the deepest card in the world. Let's get to it.
The opening video is about a new beginning. How original guys.
Tag Titles: Matt Morgan/Joey Ryan vs. Chavo Guerrero/Hernandez
Chavo and Hernandez are defending and I'm glad to see this match get done first as it's probably the least interesting one on the card for me. I just don't care about either team at all. Chavo and Joey get things going with the champion taking him into the corner to start, only to get caught in a slingshot to send him into Morgan's forearm. Off to the big man who almost immediately tags Ryan in again.
Joey dropkicks Guerrero down but like an idiot won't cover. Chavo rolls into the corner for the tag to Hernandez who hits a BIG backdrop (Keneley can't remember what to call it) before facing off with Hernandez. Joey blasts Hernandez in the back to allow Morgan to take over. Off to Joey for some chest rubbing and a front facelock. Morgan comes back in for a single shot and it's back to Ryan again.
Morgan's discus lariat keeps Hernandez down and he laughs at Hernandez for not being able to tag out. Hernandez finally avoids a charge in the corner from Ryan and makes the tag, but naturally the referee doesn't see it. Morgan and Ryan tag in and out some more to beat on SuperMex with Matt holding Hernandez up for Ryan to pound away. Joey hooks a lame neck crank which Hernandez easily breaks and follows up with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker.
Hot tag brings in Chavo to clean house with Three Amigos on Ryan. Everything breaks down and Chavo staggers Morgan with a missile dropkick. The champs hit a double dropkick to send Morgan staggering over Ryan before Hernandez hits a SICK (and mostly botched) sitout powerbomb on Joey. The Frog Splash retains the titles at 11:30.
Morgan glares at Ryan post match.
Apparently Joe has challenged Anderson for a match tonight. Anderson is tired of being accused so tonight he'll have the match. Nice job of advertising this beforehand guys.
Mr. Anderson vs. Samoa Joe
They talk a lot of trash to start with Anderson throwing his shirt in Joe's face. This goes badly for Mr. as Joe pounds away in the corner. Joe takes him down to the mat and drops a knee for two. We head to the floor with Anderson getting in a few shots to take over. Anderson kicks at the knee and rams the back into the apron before we head inside again. A clothesline gets two as does a swinging neckbreaker so it's back to Joe's knee instead.
Anderson hits a dropkick to the knee for two but seems hesitant to go for a submission hold, which makes sense given who he's fighting. Instead he cannonballs down onto the leg a few times before getting kicked out to the floor. The elbow suicida takes Anderson out but he hurts his knee again in the same move. Back in and Joe takes over with a backsplash and the snap powerslam for two. We get dueling chants about Anderson as he counters the Clutch, only to charge into a Rock Bottom out of the corner. Joe loads up the MuscleBuster but here's Knox for the distraction, allowing Anderson to hit the Mic Check for the pin at 10:55.
Kenny King is ready for York tonight but he's more ready for RVD. RVD has gone soft according to King, as he's not the same one who kicked Sabu and Jerry Lynn in the face. Good promo here.
Christian York vs. Kenny King
Winner gets RVD later in the night. Apparently that means immediately after this match. Oddly enough we get a LOUD Christian chant. Feeling out process to start with York grabbing a quick headlock. They both try dropkicks at the same time and we've got a standoff. King slaps him in the face and they run the ropes a bit, only to have Christian hold the ropes and slap King in the face. Nice touch there.
York hits a leg lariat and a knee to the face for two but gets sent to the floor. King misses a corkscrew plancha attempt though and gets caught in a headscissors to take him down. Back in and York tries a tornado DDT but gets sent out to the floor instead. Back in and King shows off a bit before hooking a chinlock. A spin kick is caught in a kind of suplex by York and both guys are down. York grabs a cravate and hooks a Russian legsweep for no cover but a running kick to the face gets two.
They fight to the apron and York hits a cartwheel kick to knock Kenny to the floor. York hits a top rope double stomp to the back for two but walks into a jumping spinning side kick followed by a spinning Rock Bottom for two. Christian goes up for a cross body but Kenny rolls through into a cover. His cheating is caught and York suplexes him down again. A running roll into the corner misses King and a pair of knees to the ribs gets two. King pulls the hair again to take over and tries la majistral, but York lays down on him for the pin at 10:15.
King lays out York with a reverse AA as Van Dam comes out.
X-Division Title: Rob Van Dam vs. Christian York
York is all banged up and can barely move but as Van Dam checks on him, Christian blasts him in the face. Van Dam blasts him down and hits a reluctant Rolling Thunder for two. Off to a surfboard followed by a triangle choke by the champion. With York's head on the apron, Van Dam hits a legdrop to the floor followed by a jackknife cover for two. York gets up a shot in the corner and a SICK knee to the face off the middle rope to put the champ down.
They tussle back and forth until Van Dam hits a springboard kick from the middle rope for two. York gets two off a surprise rollup but gets kicked in the face again. The Five Star misses and another rollup gets two. Rob puts him on the top rope for a jumping kick to the face followed by the Five Star for the pin at 5:33.
Van Dam applauds York post match.
Park thanks the well wishers for their well wishes and is ready for his match tonight. He doesn't mean to K-Fab us (That's an insider term JB. I don't expect you to know what it means.) but he's going to use his OVW training to beat D-Von tonight.
We get a compilation of Park's training videos from OVW. Danny Davis continues to crack me up with lines like Do you know why it hurt? BECAUSE YOU'RE STUPID!.
D-Von vs. Joseph Park
Non-title here. The fans are all behind Joseph of course...and then they split into dueling chants because the Impact Zone is annoying. D-Von yells at Park for messing up basic stuff and then goes behind Joe to mess with his hair. In something I never thought I would say, D-Von uses chain wrestling to take over and takes Park down to embarrass him. D-Von gets down in an amateur position but Park does some of the same chain stuff that D-Von did earlier and slaps D-Von in the back of the head. Funny stuff.
After D-Von rants on the floor for a bit, he charges into a hip toss, an armdrag and a one armed slam. D-Von knocks him to the floor in retaliation and rams Park into the steps. Back in and the buckle gets ripped off as Park is in trouble. Park blocks a shot into the buckle and pounds away, only to walk into a jumping back elbow. A clothesline puts D-Von down and Park hooks a double leg takedown and pounds away before going to the corner. Oh this isn't going to end well.
Joseph goes to the second rope and hits a splash for two but D-Von sends him into the exposed buckle. It busts Park open and it's Abyss time. A Black Hole Slam out of nowhere puts D-Von down and he loads up a chokeslam before snapping back into reality. D-Von grabs a rollup with a handful of tights for the pin at 11:40.
D-Von blasts Park with the belt post match.
Austin Aries says he'll win.
Knockouts Gauntlet Match
Winner gets a title shot at some point in the future. We start with Gail Kim vs. Tessmacher and they trade rollups to start. Tessmacher can't hit her Stinkface and Kim clotheslines her down for two. Gail goes up but gets crotched, allowing Tessmacher to hit an X-Factor out of the corner for two. That means nothing though as Gail makes her Eat Defeat for the first elimination.
Next in is ODB who stops a charging Gail on the ramp. Back in and Kim gets spanked because that's what happens in women's wrestling. A splash crushes Gail and there's a bronco buster to hammer in the point. They trade rollups and Gail avoids having her face rammed into ODB's crotch before rolling her up with tights for the pin.
Mickie James is in next and she takes Gail down quickly, only to get caught by a running shoulder in the corner. A neckbreaker puts Gail down as do an enziguri and a flapjack. We head to the floor for a headscissors from James before heading inside where Gail molests the referee. A rollup on Mickie with another handful of tights gets another pin.
Velvet Sky is the last chick in this so she can beat a weakened Gail which is supposed to make us care I guess. I can live with Velvet in a catsuit though. Gail sends her into the barricade but poses on the ropes instead of covering. A cradle gets two for Gail but she gets caught holding the ropes. Sky hits her sitout Pedigree for the pin at 12:00. Gail had her foot under the ropes so I'm sure a triple threat is coming.
Daniels and Kaz make fun of James Storm and drink an appletini. Storm apparently has permission to worship them now.
James Storm vs. Christopher Daniels
The winner gets a title shot at the 1/24 Impact. Kazarian apparently has an official manager's license and gets to stay at ringside. Storm takes him down to the mat with a headlock for a good while before Daniels is sent to the outside. Storm immediately follows and pounds away before sending him back inside to pound away some more. Kaz interferes as you would expect him to, allowing Daniels to drop Storm's arm across the ropes to take over.
The arm gets sent into the buckle and Daniels gyrates his pelvis a bit. Daniels pounds away on the arm but Storm punches back with his good arm. More cranking on the arm slows James right down again and Daniels grabs an armbar. By that I mean he holds the thing for like two minutes before Storm fights up and hooks a Russian legsweep. A backdrop puts Daniels down again and a top rope elbow gets two for the Cowboy.
Closing Time is countered by another shot to the arm but Storm comes back with the Eye of the Storm for two. The second try at Closing Time staggers Daniels but the Last Call is countered into the Angel's Wings for two. BME misses and Storm pounds away but has to superkick Kaz down, allowing Daniels to hit I think an STO for the pin at 13:35.
We recap the proposal from Impact because you knew we were going to get to this at some point tonight.
Here are Bully and Brooke, even though it's 10pm and we've got two matches to go, one of which is an elimination match. Bully says Brooke looks hot tonight and talks about the guest list for the wedding. He pulls out his Twitter machine and takes a video of the crowd who is coming to the wedding. And that's it. No seriously, that's it. So glad we wasted PPV time on this.
We recap Doc vs. Sting, which is the result of a beatdown on Sting from a few weeks ago.
Sting vs. Doc
Sting fights off an attack in the aisle and beats Doc into the crowd before the bell as is his custom. We finally get back to the ring for the bell with Sting taking over. Immediately it heads to the outside with Doc kicking Sting in the ribs and sending him into the steps. Doc poses so Sting kicks him in the ribs as we head back inside. A big right hand drops Sting and it's chinlock time.
Sting quickly fights up but gets splashed for two. They head to the ropes and Doc gets caught in them, allowing a Scorpion Death Drop to get two. The reaction to the kickout is a bit less than optimal I'd assume. Doc misses a charge into the corner and it's Stinger Splash and Death Drop for the pin at 5:52.
Post match Ray runs out to save Sting from the bikers who surround the ring.
Roode says he and Aries are going to work together to eliminate Hardy and the spotlight can shine where it should.
We recap the world title match. Hardy is against the odds, you can't predict triple threats, you know the drill.
TNA World Title: Jeff Hardy vs. Austin Aries vs. Bobby Roode
We get some big match intros and this is an elimination match with Hardy defending. Feeling out process to start with Hardy taking over. Roode finally gets a shot in to Jeff's back and the champ goes down. Hardy sends both challengers to the floor and hits a shot off the apron to take Roode down again. Back in and the spinebuster gets two on Hardy and as the champion goes up, Aries takes his leg out for two.
An elbow to Hardy's face in the corner gets two as it continues to basically be a handicap match. Roode crawls back in and Jeff uses him for some Poetry in Motion on Aries. Jeff loads up a double Swanton but gets crotched by Roode instead. There's a superplex to Hardy from Roode but it only gets two. Aries and Roode try a double team belly to back superplex but Jeff comes back to take them both out with the Whisper in the Wind.
Roode gets sent to the floor and kicked into the railing by Hardy but Austin kicks Jeff to the outside as well. Aries accidentally (I think?) crushes Roode against the barricade with the suicide dive before Hardy hits the Poetry in Motion to Aries against the barricade. The crowd is finally waking up here. Jeff loads up the Swanton on Roode but Aries breaks it up, only to get suplexed from the apron back inside onto Roode. A splash gets two on Bobby and Aries escapes the Twist.
Hardy tries to stack them up in the corner but walks into a spear from Roode for two. A discus forearm gets two for Austin and a Vader Bomb gets the same for Roode. Jeff is getting destroyed here. The running dropkick in the corner hits Hardy but the brainbuster only gets two. Roode tells Aries to hit the 450 but Roode shoves Hardy out of the way and gets two on Aries after the Payoff. Aries gets two on Bobby off another discus forearm and Roode's spear is countered into the Last Chancery.
Bobby goes to the eyes to escape and there's the Crossface to Austin. Roode counters a charging elbow by putting Aries on the top, only to get knocked down and caught with a missile dropkick. A running dropkick hits Roode in the corner but Bobby counters the brainbuster into a rollup. Aries backslides Roode and Hardy comes in to hold Bobby's shoulders down for the first elimination.
So it's Aries vs. Hardy here but Jeff is spent. The referee says Jeff got the pin which ticks Aries off. The Twist is countered but Jeff is sent to the apron and hits the Twist from there. The Swanton hits and Hardy retains the title at 20:29. Aries vs. Hardy was maybe a minute long at most.

Date: January 11, 2013
Location: American Airlines Arena, Miami, Florida
Commentators: Josh Matthews, John Bradshaw Layfield
We'll begin with a little history here: twenty years ago today, a show called Monday Night Raw premiered. To celebrate, tonight the main event is a last man standing match with Big Show facing Alberto Del Rio as his major face push continues, near Santa killing aside. Also, for the first time in longer than I can remember, Rock is on Smackdown tonight. Let's get to it.
The opening video is all about the Rock which is the right decision. Oh and we're in his hometown too. Show vs. Del Rio gets a bit of time at the end.
Here's Booker to open the show. He doesn't like being one upped by Raw with Ziggler vs. Cena, so tonight it's Orton vs. Cesaro. Rock is here too, and we go to a screen shot of Del Rio vs. Show as Booker does what is clearly a voiceover saying it'll be a last man standing match for the title. I wonder what they changed there.
Anyway Big Show comes out sans music to yell at Booker for his decision. He goes to the floor to get a mic (Show to the guys at ringside: Somebody get me a mic. There are ten of you over there. What do you all do? That's a really good question actually.) and accuses Booker of playing up to the Latino population here in Miami.
Show says Del Rio is beneath him and people like the ones here in Miami don't deserve heroes. Show: There are no Latino heroes. I'm not touching that one. He says an Irishman couldn't stop him, a Latino can't stop him and a viper can't stop him. Show gets back in the ring and grabs Booker by the throat but here's Del Rio for the save. He dropkicks Show into the corner and hits the running enziguri to send Show to the floor.
We get a classic Rock on Smackdown moment from the post 9/11 Smackdown with Rock hitting Stasiak with a Rock Bottom to beat him in three seconds.
Randy Orton vs. Antonio Cesaro
Not bad for an opener. As he comes to the ring, Cesaro says in an inset interview that he'll be in the Rumble. Cesaro pounds away to start and hits some European uppercuts before being sent to the floor. Orton clotheslines him down on the floor and we take a break. Back with Cesaro holding Randy in a chinlock before getting two off a clothesline. There's the gutwrench suplex for two more and Cesaro punches away in the corner.
We get another quick chinlock but Orton fights out and gets two off his rollup out of the corner. A Michinoku Driver of all things gets two for Antonio as JBL gets on Josh's case for mentioning the word complacent when talking about Cesaro. Orton snaps off his powerslam but gets tossed into the air for the uppercut for two. Randy escapes a whip into the corner and hits his backbreaker followed by the Elevated DDT. He loads up the RKO and here's the Shield for the DQ at 5:48 shown of 9:18.
The TripleBomb takes Orton down and the Shield stands tall.
3MB talks about being in the Rumble. Slater called his mom and was told that they have a ten percent chance of winning. Apparently they're dealing with Sheamus tonight.
Punk and Heyman are at Sun Life Stadium, home of Wrestlemania 28 and the Miami Hurricanes football team. Punk talks about how big a fan he is of Rock and his football career. He pulls out a Johnson jersey #94 (Rock's old jersey) and says he's a big college football aficionado.
He wanted to come to where Rock played back in the day, but that was in the Orange Bowl which is demolished and gone. That's like WWE now, because this isn't Rock's WWE anymore. It's Punk's WWE now and Rock has no place in it. Punk says Rock can come back to Miami, but he can never go home again. Good stuff here and it's always nice to see them outside of the arena.
Del Rio says Big Show has no idea what the Latino people are like and says he'll win the title tonight.
Dolph Ziggler/AJ vs. Natalya/Great Khali
The guys start things off with Ziggler quickly getting chopped a few times. Off to the girls and AJ jumps on Khali's back. Natalya takes her down and rams AJ's head into the mat a few times. Nattie loads up the Sharpshooter but AJ bites her finger. They head to the corner where AJ bites Natalya's ear before hitting a Sliced Bread #2 for the pin at 2:43. Nothing here but AJ craziness.
Post match Langston runs over Khali and hits the Big Ending on Hornswoggle. Freaking sweet.
Punk is still at the stadium and talks about how Rock sounds like a superhero returning to save the people. The people don't deserve to be saved though. Rather they deserve to rot, because Punk is better than the people. Heyman says that's Rock's vision, but in CM Punk's WWE, it doesn't matter what Rock's vision is. Punk takes off the jersey and drops it on the ground before walking away. Still awesome stuff here.
Another classic Rock moment shows us Rock N Sock Connection hijinks.
Here's Rocky to an eruption. He shows us his arm and the goosebumps on it before saying FINALLY. Rock says Flo Rida is here and says this is a very special show. He talks about Raw and hitting the Rock Bottom on Punk but tonight the champ isn't here. Rock talks about being in school in Miami and football practice at a field that the local fans recognize the name of. Rock says that it feels good to be home, but the real home he's going to is the Royal Rumble where he'll win the title again.
He asks the people if they want to have fun tonight and here are the Rhodes Scholars to interrupt. Sandow introduces himself and Cody to the crowd and Cody says they they don't think Rock should be here. They're the ones that are going to be champions soon, so it should be their time. Rock talks about how the Scholars came down here (WHAT) to the People's ring (WHAT) on the Rock's show (WHAT) dressed like that (you get the drill) with a dead caterpillar on Cody's lip. Rock goes to say something but has to ask what in the name of sweet tap dancing Jesus is on Cody's face.
Sandow wants to ask Rock three questions, and if Rock gets them right, he can stay. If he gets them wrong, he has to leave. Rock says bring those questions but Cody says there's no point since Rock went to Miami (one of the best academic schools in the country). The first question is who was the 19th President of the United States, which Rock correctly identifies as Rutherford B. Hayes. Sandow: That is correct. Rock: The Rock knows his 19th century.
Cody asks what movie won Best Picture in 1993. Rock says it wasn't Tooth Fairy but rather Schindler's List. Sandow is about to ask the third question but Rock has one for Damien instead. If Sandow gets it right, he gets a prize from Rock and Miami. The question is what happens when you combine a geological aggregate of minerals with its lowest form. That would be a Rock Bottom says Damien. Rock says exactly, and there's his Rock Bottom. Cody and Rock have a staredown and Cody is ready to fight, so here's a spinebuster and the People's Elbow for him. Incredibly entertaining segment here with Rock giving two guys a rub.
Sheamus vs. 3MB
Good old fashioned handicap match here. The Band does have to tag though. Slater starts but immediately bails to the floor where his teammates join him. They try to charge in at once but only Slater goes in, catching a Brogue Kick for the pin at 45 seconds.
HELL NO vs. Prime Time Players
Darren and Daniel start things off and slug it out in the corner. Off to Titus for a release slam but he charges into a pair of boots from Bryan in the corner. Kane comes in and cleans house, getting two off a sidewalk slam. The Players break up a double chokeslam attempt but a single one gets the pin on Darren at 2:22. Just a squash.
Eve vs. Kaitlyn is confirmed for Raw. Again.
We recap the opening segment.
Smackdown World Title: Big Show vs. Alberto Del Rio
Last man standing and Show is defending. Show starts with a hard chop and a slam to put Del Rio down for a short count. Del Rio comes back with a superkick to the stomach but gets chopped right back down again. Show pulls out a table but sets it up between the announcers' table and the ring instead of putting it inside. Rather than saving it for later Show pulls Del Rio to the floor and casually slams him through the table for a six count.
Back in and Del Rio kicks Show in the ribs to knock a chair out of his hands. Del Rio GOES OFF on Show with some chair shots, showing more emotion in a ten second stretch than he's shown in the last two years combined. He goes for the cross armbreaker but Show picks him up and carries him to the ropes. Show tries to throw him to the floor but Del Rio hooks the armbreaker over the ropes for a few moments before finally dropping him.
The fall from the apron gets a seven count on Del Rio as Show rests his arm. We take a break and come back with Alberto hitting a running kick to Show's arm on the floor. Show gets in a shot to break the momentum and slides in another table. Del Rio fires off more kicks to the ribs and dropkicks Show through the table to a big reaction. I'll give Alberto this: he isn't backing down.
That only gets a seven as well so Del Rio jumps on Show's back. After about thirty seconds Show flips Del Rio over but Alberto fires off whatever strikes he can get off to stagger the big man, including a pair of boots in the corner. Del Rio charges into a chokeslam though, drawing an eight count. A headbutt puts Del Rio on the floor and there's the spear through the barricade as Show is known to do.
Alberto gets up AGAIN at nine this time so Show sends him into the ring again. The WMD connects clean.....but Del Rio gets up at eight AGAIN. The crowd is losing it in a hurry. Del Rio is down at nine but he was up enough to stop the count. Show picks up the steps but misses a charge into the post and drives the steps into his own head.
Alberto blasts Show with the steps and then hits him with them again in the bad shoulder. A THIRD shot finally puts Show down behind the announce table and in a brilliant move, Del Rio turns the announce table over on top of Show. Show can't escape and Del Rio wins the title at 14:08 shown of 17:38. Ricardo can barely even make the announcement from being so excited.

Genesis 2013
Date: January 13, 2013
Location: Impact Zone, Orlando, Florida
Commentators: Todd Keneley, Tazz, Mike Tenay
It's the first PPV of 2013 and the first PPV of a new system for TNA. Starting this year, the company is only going to have four traditional three hour shows a year, starting with Genesis here tonight. The main event is Hardy defending against Aries and Roode in a triple threat elimination match. The second biggest match is......Sting vs. Doc I guess? This isn't the deepest card in the world. Let's get to it.
The opening video is about a new beginning. How original guys.
Tag Titles: Matt Morgan/Joey Ryan vs. Chavo Guerrero/Hernandez
Chavo and Hernandez are defending and I'm glad to see this match get done first as it's probably the least interesting one on the card for me. I just don't care about either team at all. Chavo and Joey get things going with the champion taking him into the corner to start, only to get caught in a slingshot to send him into Morgan's forearm. Off to the big man who almost immediately tags Ryan in again.
Joey dropkicks Guerrero down but like an idiot won't cover. Chavo rolls into the corner for the tag to Hernandez who hits a BIG backdrop (Keneley can't remember what to call it) before facing off with Hernandez. Joey blasts Hernandez in the back to allow Morgan to take over. Off to Joey for some chest rubbing and a front facelock. Morgan comes back in for a single shot and it's back to Ryan again.
Morgan's discus lariat keeps Hernandez down and he laughs at Hernandez for not being able to tag out. Hernandez finally avoids a charge in the corner from Ryan and makes the tag, but naturally the referee doesn't see it. Morgan and Ryan tag in and out some more to beat on SuperMex with Matt holding Hernandez up for Ryan to pound away. Joey hooks a lame neck crank which Hernandez easily breaks and follows up with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker.
Hot tag brings in Chavo to clean house with Three Amigos on Ryan. Everything breaks down and Chavo staggers Morgan with a missile dropkick. The champs hit a double dropkick to send Morgan staggering over Ryan before Hernandez hits a SICK (and mostly botched) sitout powerbomb on Joey. The Frog Splash retains the titles at 11:30.
Morgan glares at Ryan post match.
Apparently Joe has challenged Anderson for a match tonight. Anderson is tired of being accused so tonight he'll have the match. Nice job of advertising this beforehand guys.
Mr. Anderson vs. Samoa Joe
They talk a lot of trash to start with Anderson throwing his shirt in Joe's face. This goes badly for Mr. as Joe pounds away in the corner. Joe takes him down to the mat and drops a knee for two. We head to the floor with Anderson getting in a few shots to take over. Anderson kicks at the knee and rams the back into the apron before we head inside again. A clothesline gets two as does a swinging neckbreaker so it's back to Joe's knee instead.
Anderson hits a dropkick to the knee for two but seems hesitant to go for a submission hold, which makes sense given who he's fighting. Instead he cannonballs down onto the leg a few times before getting kicked out to the floor. The elbow suicida takes Anderson out but he hurts his knee again in the same move. Back in and Joe takes over with a backsplash and the snap powerslam for two. We get dueling chants about Anderson as he counters the Clutch, only to charge into a Rock Bottom out of the corner. Joe loads up the MuscleBuster but here's Knox for the distraction, allowing Anderson to hit the Mic Check for the pin at 10:55.
Kenny King is ready for York tonight but he's more ready for RVD. RVD has gone soft according to King, as he's not the same one who kicked Sabu and Jerry Lynn in the face. Good promo here.
Christian York vs. Kenny King
Winner gets RVD later in the night. Apparently that means immediately after this match. Oddly enough we get a LOUD Christian chant. Feeling out process to start with York grabbing a quick headlock. They both try dropkicks at the same time and we've got a standoff. King slaps him in the face and they run the ropes a bit, only to have Christian hold the ropes and slap King in the face. Nice touch there.
York hits a leg lariat and a knee to the face for two but gets sent to the floor. King misses a corkscrew plancha attempt though and gets caught in a headscissors to take him down. Back in and York tries a tornado DDT but gets sent out to the floor instead. Back in and King shows off a bit before hooking a chinlock. A spin kick is caught in a kind of suplex by York and both guys are down. York grabs a cravate and hooks a Russian legsweep for no cover but a running kick to the face gets two.
They fight to the apron and York hits a cartwheel kick to knock Kenny to the floor. York hits a top rope double stomp to the back for two but walks into a jumping spinning side kick followed by a spinning Rock Bottom for two. Christian goes up for a cross body but Kenny rolls through into a cover. His cheating is caught and York suplexes him down again. A running roll into the corner misses King and a pair of knees to the ribs gets two. King pulls the hair again to take over and tries la majistral, but York lays down on him for the pin at 10:15.
King lays out York with a reverse AA as Van Dam comes out.
X-Division Title: Rob Van Dam vs. Christian York
York is all banged up and can barely move but as Van Dam checks on him, Christian blasts him in the face. Van Dam blasts him down and hits a reluctant Rolling Thunder for two. Off to a surfboard followed by a triangle choke by the champion. With York's head on the apron, Van Dam hits a legdrop to the floor followed by a jackknife cover for two. York gets up a shot in the corner and a SICK knee to the face off the middle rope to put the champ down.
They tussle back and forth until Van Dam hits a springboard kick from the middle rope for two. York gets two off a surprise rollup but gets kicked in the face again. The Five Star misses and another rollup gets two. Rob puts him on the top rope for a jumping kick to the face followed by the Five Star for the pin at 5:33.
Van Dam applauds York post match.
Park thanks the well wishers for their well wishes and is ready for his match tonight. He doesn't mean to K-Fab us (That's an insider term JB. I don't expect you to know what it means.) but he's going to use his OVW training to beat D-Von tonight.
We get a compilation of Park's training videos from OVW. Danny Davis continues to crack me up with lines like Do you know why it hurt? BECAUSE YOU'RE STUPID!.
D-Von vs. Joseph Park
Non-title here. The fans are all behind Joseph of course...and then they split into dueling chants because the Impact Zone is annoying. D-Von yells at Park for messing up basic stuff and then goes behind Joe to mess with his hair. In something I never thought I would say, D-Von uses chain wrestling to take over and takes Park down to embarrass him. D-Von gets down in an amateur position but Park does some of the same chain stuff that D-Von did earlier and slaps D-Von in the back of the head. Funny stuff.
After D-Von rants on the floor for a bit, he charges into a hip toss, an armdrag and a one armed slam. D-Von knocks him to the floor in retaliation and rams Park into the steps. Back in and the buckle gets ripped off as Park is in trouble. Park blocks a shot into the buckle and pounds away, only to walk into a jumping back elbow. A clothesline puts D-Von down and Park hooks a double leg takedown and pounds away before going to the corner. Oh this isn't going to end well.
Joseph goes to the second rope and hits a splash for two but D-Von sends him into the exposed buckle. It busts Park open and it's Abyss time. A Black Hole Slam out of nowhere puts D-Von down and he loads up a chokeslam before snapping back into reality. D-Von grabs a rollup with a handful of tights for the pin at 11:40.
D-Von blasts Park with the belt post match.
Austin Aries says he'll win.
Knockouts Gauntlet Match
Winner gets a title shot at some point in the future. We start with Gail Kim vs. Tessmacher and they trade rollups to start. Tessmacher can't hit her Stinkface and Kim clotheslines her down for two. Gail goes up but gets crotched, allowing Tessmacher to hit an X-Factor out of the corner for two. That means nothing though as Gail makes her Eat Defeat for the first elimination.
Next in is ODB who stops a charging Gail on the ramp. Back in and Kim gets spanked because that's what happens in women's wrestling. A splash crushes Gail and there's a bronco buster to hammer in the point. They trade rollups and Gail avoids having her face rammed into ODB's crotch before rolling her up with tights for the pin.
Mickie James is in next and she takes Gail down quickly, only to get caught by a running shoulder in the corner. A neckbreaker puts Gail down as do an enziguri and a flapjack. We head to the floor for a headscissors from James before heading inside where Gail molests the referee. A rollup on Mickie with another handful of tights gets another pin.
Velvet Sky is the last chick in this so she can beat a weakened Gail which is supposed to make us care I guess. I can live with Velvet in a catsuit though. Gail sends her into the barricade but poses on the ropes instead of covering. A cradle gets two for Gail but she gets caught holding the ropes. Sky hits her sitout Pedigree for the pin at 12:00. Gail had her foot under the ropes so I'm sure a triple threat is coming.
Daniels and Kaz make fun of James Storm and drink an appletini. Storm apparently has permission to worship them now.
James Storm vs. Christopher Daniels
The winner gets a title shot at the 1/24 Impact. Kazarian apparently has an official manager's license and gets to stay at ringside. Storm takes him down to the mat with a headlock for a good while before Daniels is sent to the outside. Storm immediately follows and pounds away before sending him back inside to pound away some more. Kaz interferes as you would expect him to, allowing Daniels to drop Storm's arm across the ropes to take over.
The arm gets sent into the buckle and Daniels gyrates his pelvis a bit. Daniels pounds away on the arm but Storm punches back with his good arm. More cranking on the arm slows James right down again and Daniels grabs an armbar. By that I mean he holds the thing for like two minutes before Storm fights up and hooks a Russian legsweep. A backdrop puts Daniels down again and a top rope elbow gets two for the Cowboy.
Closing Time is countered by another shot to the arm but Storm comes back with the Eye of the Storm for two. The second try at Closing Time staggers Daniels but the Last Call is countered into the Angel's Wings for two. BME misses and Storm pounds away but has to superkick Kaz down, allowing Daniels to hit I think an STO for the pin at 13:35.
We recap the proposal from Impact because you knew we were going to get to this at some point tonight.
Here are Bully and Brooke, even though it's 10pm and we've got two matches to go, one of which is an elimination match. Bully says Brooke looks hot tonight and talks about the guest list for the wedding. He pulls out his Twitter machine and takes a video of the crowd who is coming to the wedding. And that's it. No seriously, that's it. So glad we wasted PPV time on this.
We recap Doc vs. Sting, which is the result of a beatdown on Sting from a few weeks ago.
Sting vs. Doc
Sting fights off an attack in the aisle and beats Doc into the crowd before the bell as is his custom. We finally get back to the ring for the bell with Sting taking over. Immediately it heads to the outside with Doc kicking Sting in the ribs and sending him into the steps. Doc poses so Sting kicks him in the ribs as we head back inside. A big right hand drops Sting and it's chinlock time.
Sting quickly fights up but gets splashed for two. They head to the ropes and Doc gets caught in them, allowing a Scorpion Death Drop to get two. The reaction to the kickout is a bit less than optimal I'd assume. Doc misses a charge into the corner and it's Stinger Splash and Death Drop for the pin at 5:52.
Post match Ray runs out to save Sting from the bikers who surround the ring.
Roode says he and Aries are going to work together to eliminate Hardy and the spotlight can shine where it should.
We recap the world title match. Hardy is against the odds, you can't predict triple threats, you know the drill.
TNA World Title: Jeff Hardy vs. Austin Aries vs. Bobby Roode
We get some big match intros and this is an elimination match with Hardy defending. Feeling out process to start with Hardy taking over. Roode finally gets a shot in to Jeff's back and the champ goes down. Hardy sends both challengers to the floor and hits a shot off the apron to take Roode down again. Back in and the spinebuster gets two on Hardy and as the champion goes up, Aries takes his leg out for two.
An elbow to Hardy's face in the corner gets two as it continues to basically be a handicap match. Roode crawls back in and Jeff uses him for some Poetry in Motion on Aries. Jeff loads up a double Swanton but gets crotched by Roode instead. There's a superplex to Hardy from Roode but it only gets two. Aries and Roode try a double team belly to back superplex but Jeff comes back to take them both out with the Whisper in the Wind.
Roode gets sent to the floor and kicked into the railing by Hardy but Austin kicks Jeff to the outside as well. Aries accidentally (I think?) crushes Roode against the barricade with the suicide dive before Hardy hits the Poetry in Motion to Aries against the barricade. The crowd is finally waking up here. Jeff loads up the Swanton on Roode but Aries breaks it up, only to get suplexed from the apron back inside onto Roode. A splash gets two on Bobby and Aries escapes the Twist.
Hardy tries to stack them up in the corner but walks into a spear from Roode for two. A discus forearm gets two for Austin and a Vader Bomb gets the same for Roode. Jeff is getting destroyed here. The running dropkick in the corner hits Hardy but the brainbuster only gets two. Roode tells Aries to hit the 450 but Roode shoves Hardy out of the way and gets two on Aries after the Payoff. Aries gets two on Bobby off another discus forearm and Roode's spear is countered into the Last Chancery.
Bobby goes to the eyes to escape and there's the Crossface to Austin. Roode counters a charging elbow by putting Aries on the top, only to get knocked down and caught with a missile dropkick. A running dropkick hits Roode in the corner but Bobby counters the brainbuster into a rollup. Aries backslides Roode and Hardy comes in to hold Bobby's shoulders down for the first elimination.
So it's Aries vs. Hardy here but Jeff is spent. The referee says Jeff got the pin which ticks Aries off. The Twist is countered but Jeff is sent to the apron and hits the Twist from there. The Swanton hits and Hardy retains the title at 20:29. Aries vs. Hardy was maybe a minute long at most.
