I think everyone who wins that belt should give it a new name. Saskatchewan Hardcore International Title, anyone?

"Just answer me one question. Are we going to light somebody on fire?"

But Lance Storm isn't here...:sweat:

Oh yeah, there was a swerve at the end.

How about the 20 Kilos or Less title?:D

[Jin Kazama]

There's something so incredibly wrong about Hogan being in the ring with the ECW guys. Considering that him "doing his thing" like he was talking about, with his buddies, were the exact reason some of the ECW guys were even in ECW, instead of WCW.

[Azrayel]

Man I can't wait for that free ppv on August 12th to air on iMPACT, and lets hope the tv championship will stay with that name forever, we don't really need another name change.

[The Penguin]

So "E.V. 2.0" is the best TNA could do? Doing something to avoid much more use of ECW was a smart move, but I think someone should have tried harder. Speaking of trademarks, I find it interesting how much Brother Ray gets called Bubba especially right now. Seems questionable.

I agree that Hulk Hogan showing up was just really out of place and I laughed at his "Thanks for doin' it in TNA" line because it's not like there are a ton of choices. TNA just doesn't even seem to notice that this whole thing relies even more on nostalgia than believing Scott Hall & Kevin Nash were still a credible tag team.

So Eric Young gets hit in the head a few times on Xplosion and goes crazy/back to his old ways. I expect he'll be afraid of his own pyro if they give him any. I like Eric just fine, but even if he were friends with someone at Jeff Jarrett's level in WWE, he probably would have been fired by now.

I like Kazarian, Styles and Flair, but I will take those "angry rookies" over this shallow attempt at the Four Horsemen any day of the week.

I was so happy when A.J. declared that the Global Title was going to become the Television Title. While it may not have been a unique idea, I have been calling for it for a while, it's is the only way this belt could go on and mean anything. I would love to see them redo the belt rather than take off the "Global" cover that's on top of "Legends" and replace it with "Television." I suspect that's what will happen though.

Okay, so I was a bit distracted during the start of the cage match, but why did it look like they were going to tag in and out?!! I'm not going to say that the first tag cage match where they did that, but it just seemed so out of place. Thankfully, the Guns got the big win to keep things going. I would have expect the last match at the PPV, but with E.V. 2.0 taking it over, that seems unlikely.

Well, Rob Terry beat Kaz quickly. Something like this doesn't benefit either of them really. Of course, with Rob Terry, the shorter the match, the better.

I don't even care enough about Murphy & Gunner attacking Jeff and Anderson seemingly for Matt Morgan that I don't even want to ask anyone to ask me if I care. Like TNA needs to introduce more people to the roster. I had been starting to wonder if Orlando Jordan was coming back.

I'm excited about this August 12 "pay-per-view" quality. I imagine this is intended to be the substitute for what would have been the regular Hardcore Justice. I hope TNA's execution is as good as one would hope.

So I guess Raven is going to fight Tommy Dreamer on the PPV then? Why on earth was he licking him?! :shrug:

[Azrayel]

Why on earth was he licking him?! :shrug:

Yeah I was thinking this when I saw him lick Dreamer. It was really an akward moment, but I'm guessing this is the crazy/weird Raven that Dr. Stevie was trying to control. Not that Raven isn't already weird to begin with.

[KJ Styles]

I like Kazarian, Styles and Flair, but I will take those "angry rookies" over this shallow attempt at the Four Horsemen any day of the week.

Not me. Say what you want about Fortune, but they're a million times more talented than Nexus, who are a shallow attempt at the nWo.

[Wonderwall]

I think the guys in Fortune are good, well except Kaz, but they should really be doing something else. I feel bad for AJ, he out of all of them deserves far better than being part of a shallow attempt at the Four Horseman.

[KJ Styles]

Kaz is a good wrestler, he just hasn't been used properly as of late. AJ would be better off as a babyface, but if they insist on him being a heel then I don't mind him being in Fortune as long as he gets pushed. If it were me booking though, AJ's role in the group would be replaced by Desmond Wolfe. I hate the way that Wolfe has been used, and being in Fortune would get him tremendously over since he's more of a natural heel.
