TNA Victory Road
X-Cup 12-Man Elimination - ****1/2 - This match was right up my alley. A super fast paced super sprint with tons of great spots and awesome flow. There were a couple semi-botches but even those were somewhat saved and considering the sheer amount of craziness and mayhem and the pace of the match it's pretty amazing how smooth it all came off. Plenty of time given, everybody given a chance to shine, Masato Yoshino being absolutely sensational. All that leads this to being my second favorite TNA match of the year.
Full Metal Mayhem (Team 3D & Kurt Angle vs. Christian Cage, Rhyno, & AJ Styles) - ****1/4 - ****1/2 - Amazing hardcore match featuring some awesome spots. The match kicked into high gear right off the bat with AJ going airborne over the top rope. The Christian Cross Body off the top of the Ultimate X structure was epic. Tons of great table spots. Rhyno going Gore-crazy. Devon toughing it out after injuring his ankle. Great finish with the Super Olympic Slam off the ladder through a table. I had a hard time choosing between the X-Cup Eliminator and this match as my MOTN but the X-Cup Eliminator won out due to the crazy pace. Still this match was a really close second.
