TNA Genesis
Alex Shelley vs Chris Sabin - ****1/2
Jeff Jarrett vs Kurt Angle - ****1/4
Besides the rest of the ppv being crap this is a good start for 09 for TNA.

I'm not getting all the love for Angle/JJ...but to each his own.
I'm not gonna go ****1/2-3/4, like some people do, but it was pretty awesome. I might go lower on another viewing, I was pretty into it, but the mistakes might show more on numerous viewings. Also, the post match beat down of Jarrett was good times.

Not all th PPV was crap like you stated. With the exception of the KO, Cute kip,and the sewell matches everything else was descent. The opening and tag matches were *** 1/2 each.

The opener was good, it did a good job of setting up a Hernandez push. I didn't see the tag match. But having back to back poor main events is not a good thing.

Angle/Jarrett was epic in every sense of the word, a match built around the story and the 2 men's utter hatred for each other. Jarrett sold like a fucking champ and Angle played his role of dastardly heel so well, I thought it was the best TNA match since Harris/Storm TDM back at Sacrifice 07.
After watching Genesis again (and on a quality video rather than a shitty stream), I fully stand by my earlier ratings, if anything I'm almost inclined to raise my rating for Jarrett vs. Angle. Both matches were incredible. Angle vs. Jarrett was straight up epic. The intensity and emotion in that match was overwhelming.
As far as the rest of the show only the KO tag and Sewell/Bashir match weren't particularly good, though neither match was really bad either. The 6 Man main event even with Cute Kip was actually somewhat good (though compared to Jarrett/Angle...)
