Good review MSII. I know you don't care for star ratings but mine would be:

PCS Battle Royale-**3/4-***
4 Way Tag Match-**1/2
Monsters Ball III-***3/4
Young/Zybysko-1/4*
Sabin/Senshi-****1/4
Cage/Rhino-***1/2-***3/4
LAX vs Styles/Daniels-****1/4
Sting/Jarrett-***3/4

Awesome PPV, one of my top 3 TNA shows of all time.

[Word]

Destination X 2008
LAX vs. RnRI vs. MCMG ****

1. Shows some awesome spots
2. Great tag team partnership moves
3. Chemistry in match
4. The constant flow and excitement
5. The crowd
6. An awesome ending

Deserves no less and is at least ****. If the match had the likes of Bret Hart, Austin, Michaels, Rock, HHH in the match it would easily be ****3/4 - *****.

I know it's not a DVD, but here are my Live Impact ratings after a 2nd watch.

Shelley/Devine-***(I would go slightly higher with a clean finish)
LAX/Salinas vs Steiner/Petey/Rocka-**3/4-***
Booker/Roode-***-***1/4
Kong/ODB-**1/2
Team Cage/Team Tomko-***1/2

This was like PPV quality matchwise.

I agree. They really take seriuosly the live thing.

It would be great if one of those matches are included like an extra in a DVD

Random match ratings from Genesis 05

AJ/Petey-***3/4(I prefer their VR 04 match even tho it's shorter)
Elimination X-****(They should do this again)
AMW/Jarrett vs Team 3D/Rhino-****1/4(Very underrated match, just a great and wild brawl.)

I just found the first ever primetime iMPACT (the 2 hour special) back on my computer. Damn what a heck of an episode that was soo far. I just finished Christian Cage vs Rhino (SSOS Barbwired). Will post the rating of the Kurt Angle in ring debut tomorrow. (Kurt Angle vs Abyss)

Rhino vs Christian Cage (SSOS Barbwire)
What a great bout that was, the only negative things were the commercial in the early match and the length of the match (a bit too short). The 2 had a great chemistry during their vicious feud in 2006 and this match was maybe the best of their series. Christian's selling was soo great in this match. There were a few sick spots including a top rope unprettier, but the move of the match was the finish. Some piece of great booking: Rhino gored Cage through the cage, but Cage won and remained undefeated.
DW summerized the whole match in one sentence: Cage may have won the match, but Rhino won the battle.
**** - ****1/4
