It's ridiculous. Save that shit for free TV. I want to see clean matches when i'm watching a PPV. TNA you failed me at my first live PPV.

Yeah that does kinda suck, but the PPV came across really good on tv.

I was really liking the Roode/Booker match, but they gotta build up ya know.

The Barbwire Massacre thing does suck, but it really wasn't TNA's fault. Blame the South Carolina atheletic commission.

The interference in the Main Event played out really well from what I saw, it was hella wild.

Obviously after he just interfered and stuff they aren't gonna cut a promo about why, it's actually good buisness to try and gain viewers.

They really didn't bait and switch on anything.

Nah, not Tomko, the whole Rhyno deal. Why come out and say you have something to get off your chest, but will do it this Thursday on Impact. It baffles me sometimes.

Oh, well I didn't even see that. I only saw the 2nd half of the show, the 1st half doesn't really look that great.

Ratings of what I saw...
Traci/Payton: *1/2 - *1/4
BWM: **1/2 - **3/4
Booker/Roode: **3/4 - ***
Street Fight: ***1/2 - ***3/4
Angle/Cage: **** - ****1/4

Good PPV.

Good PPV.

I would bump BWM up a little bit and maybe Cage/Angle a 1/4*, but for the most I agree.

Kinda hard after only one watch. I thought Roode/Booker were well on there way to a **** match or so, and then in ended abruptly. I was loving their chemistry tho.

the roode/booker match was great until booker did the spin-a-roony. the guy "shattered" his wife's jaw. he has no time to do taunts. in a real situation he would have kept on him like a rabid animal. i expected some kind of non-finish to the match, just to extend it to the next PPV, but they didn't do themselves any favors by showing the half-empty arena when they were goin to the back with it.

Very true, but they did show signs that they could have a really good match together.

Really early prediction for this year's KOTM: Angle vs Joe vs Cage vs AJ vs Tomko.

Also, I really think we'll learn more about how Cage said, "Of course I know something that everyone else doesn't."

I think we can presume he tried to buy off Tomko with a deal, and Tomko was pissed about it and decided to screw him.

That would make sense and it wouldn't put Tomko back in with the Angle Alliance.(Which would suck.)

Yes I definately don't blame TNA for the BW massacre. South Carolina is ridulously strict with just about everything. Hell they just made tattoos legal here last year(was illegal to get tattoos done anywhere in SC.) I really can't stand this state and im regretting moving here.

By the way how'd the crowd sound on TV? It was pretty rockin inside the place although there was a lack of unique chants (i tried my hardest to get some started though lol)

**Stone Cold sXe** · 02-11-2008, 01:04 AM

Ugh...guesstimate

I'd be pretty pissed off if I paid $100 for a ticket and some people walked in free.

The crowd came across pretty good, louder than I expected.
