2008 TNA Sacrifice Talkback Thread

[oo7565]

this is the place for the results and talk about the event while it going. should start in 25 min and we know the first match is 3d vs Sting and James storm

[Djm912]

You know why I love TNA? I have absolutely no clue what kind of prediction to make.

I don't care if it's just me. Bring on Sacrifice.

[TheVileOne]

Angle's apparently broken his neck for the umpteenth time at a house show and is having trouble working.

Too bad all the angles have no redeeming qualities for me to care enough to make any kind of prediction.

It's time to retire me thinks. Angle in TNA has been a huge bust, he hasn't been able to go anymore to the point he was even 2 years ago.

[PTurkey]

Yep. No Kurt. Sucks.

Roode with Booker? I thought we finished that feud already. So that means Kong with Road Dogg? That's a disappointing pairing.

Ridiculous. The Lockdown match with Joe was sweet.

[TheVileOne]

I have a feeling Joe is already losing the title tonight.

Kurt Angle's run in TNA was an unmitigated failure, and his booking as champion was terrible. TNA destroyed their show and roster in order to accommodate Angle. Angle's behavior since coming into TNA in public has also been disgusting.

[oo7565]

Team 3d beat Sting and Storm Storm turn on Sting then later Sting walks out on Storm

also looks like joe run as champ is done after what Keven nash as done tonight in the second tag team match Cage and Rhyno beat Booker T and Rhoode it looks like Booker have turn heel

[Wonderwall]

Ridiculous. The Lockdown match with Joe was sweet.

I wasn't wowed by it, much like all of Angle/ Joe matches.

[oo7565]

in the 3rd match Latin American Xchange defeated Kip James and Matt Morgan after Morgan accidently hit a Big Boot on James.

in the 4th match AJ and Super Eric beat kong and Bg James so what was the point in haveing the 4 wild card people take place in it if none of them won a match?

[TheVileOne]

There wasn't any point like most of TNA's dumb, idiotic booking.

[oo7565]

Kaz won the Terror Dome Match and gets a shot at the world as well what will happend if he wins the world title tonight

Team 3D beat Cage and Rhyno in the first simifinal

Lax beats aj and super eric
final match will be lax vs 3d boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[PTurkey]

TerrorDome was pretty awesome. Most crazy Tower of Doom spot I've seen. WWE would never have their Cruisers in something like that.

:crying: Roxxi

[TheVileOne]

Ugh whatever. Typical X division spotfest while TNA continues to not do anything of true significance with the X division for a long time.

If Joe walks out with the title tonight, I will be very surprised.

PTurkey, it's called MONEY IN THE BANK in WWE. CM Punk won it at Wrestlemania.

[oo7565]

Roxxi :crying::crying::crying: second that hopefully love will get her soon enought too

[TheVileOne]

My prediction: Joe is going to get screwed. No way the main event ends clean with Joe winning the match.

[oo7565]

Laz wins the tag touney:crying::crying::crying:

[TheVileOne]

The booking of this show was a little ridiculous and rushed. But Joe retained, surprising, but OK. LAX wins the titles - GOOD.

However, despite I was so sure tonight, Joe definitely isn't coming out of King of the Mountain as champ.

[PTurkey]

Kaz didn't take the pinfall, which really surprised me. Kaz would be a great X Division Champ.
LAX won the tourney, totally the best guys to give it to. The Egotistical 8 thing looks like it was just a setup for Sting-Storm and Morgan-Gunn feuds.
Roxxi's hardcore. I <3 her. She deserves the belt in the near future for that.

Really strong show. No match stood out as really awful.


PTurkey, it's called MONEY IN THE BANK in WWE. CM Punk won it at Wrestlemania.I meant a fancy-pants cage gimmick. They've never Elimination Chambers or Hell in a Cells filled with flippy little guys. They'd just throw in a token wrestler on the light side of heavy, like RVD.

[TheVileOne]

Really strong show. No match stood out as really awful.

Some of those tag matches were pretty dull and pointless.

So what? This was just a big spotfest with a lot of guys killing themselves who will never get the proper push they deserve. TNA hasn't booked the X division like it meant something in over 2 years. They are going to totally blow World X Cup just like in 2006.

[PTurkey]

Some of those tag matches were pretty dull and pointless. In retrospect, you're right. I guess I'd blocked out stuff like the disappointment of Kong's match, like the the testicular claw or Styles' spectacular botch.

Spotfests are like the ice cream to the meat-and-potatoes of guys like Samoa Joe, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and such. They're great as long as you don't go overboard with them. As far as spots go, the ones in the Terrordome weren't even that bad, just a bunch of Super- moves landing on the back. Nothing ridiculous like a superpiledriver or a 2 story dive onto a table and concrete.


TNA hasn't booked the X division like it meant something in over 2 years. They are going to totally blow World X Cup just like in 2006. Maybe I'm being optimistic, but I do think TNA's in the process of getting its house in order. Their Women's division is rock solid, the World title is on a "TNA guy", not an ex-WWE or TNA guy, the Tag Titles are on a great, legitimate team, they're reportedly looking for participation from CMLL, NJPW and Dragon Gate for the World X Cup. Sure, they'll probably do something stupid storyline-wise, but at least there's gonna be decent matches with hungry talent and Scott Steiner promos.
