Daniels/Styles should be good even though I'm apathetic about it, Roode/Hardy should be solid but that tag title match is going to be a complete disaster.
Only four matches.. I guess Bully vs Aries and Kaz vs Storm will be announced this week? Angle/Joe vs Doc/Dvon is also a possibility. Would love to see Angle & Joe teaming up together.
Another solid B4B. Really looking forward to Aries/Bully 2 after watching it.
Predictions:
MAIN EVENT: WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Bobby Roode vs. "The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy (c)
Probably gonna be solid, but I don't care tbh. Maybe because the champ is a babyface. Maybe because this will be their 3d-4th match against each other. Not sure. Just don't really care.
Jeff wins btw.
ONE FINAL TIME Christopher Daniels vs. "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles
I don't mind seeing another battle between these two again, actually. I hate seeing the exact same matches/spots/etc, not competitors. These guys always come up with something new, so, I have no problem with this one.
Daniels MUST win.
BULLY RAY VS. AUSTIN ARIES
INB4 MOTN. Gonna be stiff, gonna be fun, gonna be good.
Aries wins via DQ.
ACES & EIGHTS VS. KURT ANGLE, SAMOA JOE, GARETT BISCHOFF & WES BRISCO
8 man tags are almost always fun to watch, so Im looking forward to this one as well. Garett and Wes can shit on it, but hey, I believe in Joe and Kurt. Also interested in seeing whos gonna be teaming with Devon,Doc and Knox. Masters? Bradley? We'll see.
Aces&8s win after Garett and Wes turn heel.
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Matt Morgan & Joey Ryan vs. Chavo Guerrero & Hernandez (c)
Whatever.
X DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
Kenny King vs. Rob Van Dam (c)
This can be good... or shitty. RVD is stale and a fucking slacker. Plus, we don't know if they have any chemistry, 'cause if they don't, this can be botchy as fuck.
RVD wins clean.
KNOCKOUTS CHAMPIONSHIP Mickie James vs. Tara (c)
Their match at Turning Point 2010 was very good. They CAN deliver. With Jesse around they can easily fuck it all up tho.
Mickie wins and then we waste our time on her feud with Velvet Sky.

Those three matches make the show for me. Like the dude above, I'm also interested in seeing who teams with Devon/Knox/Doc, sure hope it isn't VP D-Lo. I would enjoy the X-Div title match but I can't stand RVD, would love a miracle KK win but not happening.
Good card overall.

Damn you @theearlhebner. You got what you deserved for messing with the #ItFactor and #TGMTEL. Suck our balls, old man.
The card has been updated. The image for Bully/Aries was screwy so it's not here but that doesn't matter. As previous posters mentioned earlier, Hardy/Roode and Styles/Daniels will be the obvious highlights of the show. I willing to bet this show WILL NOT bet the final time Styles and Daniels face each other one on one. So much history with that feud and many quality wrestling matches. Some of the best in TNA history. I'm sure they will work hard to produce the goods once again.
This video was added too:
As for match predictions
Hardy over Roode. Hardy will probably hold the championship to Lockdown at least imo. This main event should be very good and I'm thinking better than their other matches this past year.
Daniels over AJ. Daniels picking up the victory can add more fuel to AJ's frustrations on his recent lack of success. I wouldn't be surprised if Kaz and Storm were involved. If AJ is eventually turning heel, Storm seems like the obvious feud since it was Storm in fact who defeated AJ last month at Turning Point to keep him from getting a World title match for a year.
It's going to be fun seeing Aries & Bully reverse roles from their Sacrifice match in May. That match was extremely good and physical and this match should maintain that physicality although the story is much different. I predict Aries to get a cheat victory.
I can see Aces & 8s gaining another sneaky victory over the TNA guys although it could go either way. No matter the decision I would like to see another reveal from A&8. It'll probably just be Al Snow or D-Lo.
Happy to see Kenny King get some TV and PPV time this week. I want him to win the X-Division title and have some substantial feuds with it but I think RVD is going over, and King goes back to sidelines unfortunately.
Not really looking forward to the tag titles match but I predict the Chavo/Hernandez run to continue a bit more. Morgan will continue his beef with Hogan on Impact.
Mickie wins the Knockouts Title, ends feud with Tara at the close of the year and moves on to Velvet Sky.

MAIN EVENT: WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Bobby Roode vs. Jeff Hardy (champion)
Trying really hard tocare about this but gettingnowhere. Hardy wins, I don't think Roode can drag a good match out of him but hey, I'd gladly be surprised. Doubt it'll top the Aries' matches.
ONE FINAL TIME Christopher Daniels vs. AJ Styles
Only really invested in this if Daniels wins. It's the perfect time for it to FINALLY happen but I just get the feeling TNA are gonna LOL NOPE us and have AJ stand tall.
Bully Ray vs. Austin Aries
Like the only real reason to care about this. Aries works better as the heel imo so there's every chance they up their game from Sacrifice. If this gets more time than that match (which was my major gripe with it really) and its hogan free then
8 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH Aces & Eights vs. Kurt Angle, Samoa Joe, Garett Bischoff & Wes Brisco
Don't care, Aces win b/c why not. Keep them strong and all
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP Matt Morgan & Joey Ryan vs. Chavo Guerrero & Hernandez (champions)
Highly likely to be a trainwreck of a match with the only possible shining light being Ryan and Morgan winning. Mainly because it keeps Morgan out of the upper card, gives Ryan a belt and also restricts half the time Morgan actually has to wrestle. But yeah this has 3 atrocious guys and one okay guy. Pass.
X DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
Kenny King vs. Rob Van Dam (champion)
I'd like King to win but its ROB VAN DAM so probably not. Hopefully something half decent though, Zema Ion got something out of him so why not Kenny
KNOCKOUTS CHAMPIONSHIP
Mickie James vs. Tara (champion)
Legit haven't seen one promo or interaction between those two so im guessing tara retains for the hell of it. Also Velvets back (sigh)

It's Aries trying to get in Bully's head again but for totally different reasons. The story behind this is real solid and has Aries in a cocky role and Bully wanting to pulverise him, much like Sacrifice but at the same time everything's changed. Seriously hoping they just get the time to go out there and tear the house down because it's not like the ppv is accomplishing anyway, at least give me a MOTYC and no Hogans. plz
Now that I think about it there's a small chance of hogan screwing bully ray and joining Aries.
AA is just the spokesman, bully ray is the one doing fucking his daughter business (allegedly)
