The one part of the show that I was worried about, Sting/Anderson, had decent brawling.
It was about as good as you could hope from a Sting/Anderson match and the right guy won. I know I want to watch this Thursday to see what develops from it.
I did learn one thing: A top 3 PPV for a company needs better commentary and a better venue. If they could have went on the road, got a venue that could hold 4 or 5 thousand people, and pack it the PPV would have gone from a really solid and enjoyable 3 stars to a 4 star PPV.
You don't notice how much commentary and crowd adds or detracts to a PPV until you see Impact do a nice PPV to 1000 people just barely giving a damn. Lockdown, Slammiversary, Hard Justice and Bound for Glory should NEVER be in the Impact Zone.
One of the first orders of business should be finding, at a minimum, a quality 3rd man in the commentary booth, if not firing both Tazz and Tenay and starting fresh with a new 3 man crew.
