Just think what he will do at Lockdown vs Jeff Hardy, who also doesn't give a shit about his body. These guys will probably try to kill themselves for your enjoyment.

That should make for an exciting PPV, but probably won't.

Kurt's only 43, Jeff's only 34 and seems to have pulled it around for now, and RVD's only 41. I'm the first to complain about old wrestlers, but these guys can still go.
If they manage to put on an entertaining train wreck without seriously hurting themselves, I'll be happy.

Kurt's like 40 or 41 I think? Jeff Hardy is like 34 or 35. RVD is like 40. These guys really aren't that old and they can all still go, although RVD obviously stopped giving a shit and hasn't even had a feud in over a year from what I can remember. The last feud I remember is with Matt Hardy from early 2011 and that wasn't even really much of a feud, before Matt Hardy got fired. Jeff Hardy has stepped it up and been much better after getting off drugs. Kurt is one of the best of all time. I have no problems with either of those guys.

I don't know which Hardy crazy eyes those are anymore. They could be the "is he on drugs? Who would have eyes like that?" or painted on.
Here's the lineup
And here is a 30 min video hyping the main event from TNA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MichZy4Juws
The robbie e gimmick character is still going? Damn. And crimson is ugly as shit. Where the hell is the pope? Has he been let go? The most exciting looking match is the tag match. And that's because of MCMG.

I can't wait for the reactions post-ppv of everyone yelling about how fuck-awful it was despite it "being good on paper."
It's TNA. In 2012. Learn from the past, you dopes!

I'd like to tell myself it's TNA actually doing a solid job building up their show for once.
Roode vs Storm feels like a much more important match that Lesnar vs Cena does. Both of these matches are polar opposites in terms of how to properly build a big match.
But I see your point. It feels weird actually being this interested in a TNA PPV. I hope it's a good show, and is something TNA can use to build a stronger future.

My raging apathy will be directed directly at Bobo.
And at you for callin' me a dope. Totes® not cool.
God DAMN.
How the hell do I want to watch TNA right now. That card looks alright. Wouldn't mind watching Hardy/Angle. WWE needs to step their shit up.

Hey Wrassle GAF my local indy is in a tough spot financially at the moment. AIW is one the best local promotions in the U.S. in my opinion. Look at some of the talent they are bringing in for next months show Archibald Peck, AR Fox, Uhaa Nation, ACH, Willie Mack, BJ Whitmer, and Tim Donst. They bring guys like this in every month. Plus there is the Cleveland talent who are at every show like, Johnny Gargano, M-Dogg 20, Josh Prohibition, Gregory Irons, and Marion Fontaine. They also do all women's show's every other month called Girls Night Out. They have one today here is a link with all the talent they are bringing in http://www.aiwrestling.com/gno6.php. So if you guy's like what you see and think they are worth it then please head over to their shop http://shop.aiwrestling.com/ and buy a dvd.

Always enjoyed the AIW Girls Night Out shows I've seen, and that Matt Classic shoot interview, so I'll definitely grab a couple of shows to help out.
Picked up the March and April shows, mostly for Tim Donst vs BJ Whitmer and ACH vs AR Fox in a 30 minute Iron Man match.

Imposter SoulPlaya storyline is go
I actually plan on trying to make it out to next month's shows. I really want to see Willie Mack and AR Fox wrestle in-person. I'm bummed that Uhaa Nation is injured, though.

this is the best ROH episode since forever and it's because of the crowd...it's like a tiny version of the crowd for Raw. Main event is that fat fucker vs the broomstick in a mask.
ROH is coming here next month so we get the wrestlers cutting promos for the event. Haven't seen those since the 80s.

ROH is coming here 2 days before Raw. I see what they did....tryin to milk all the moneies from wrestling fans before they have a chance to spend it at Raw..

Really good promo from Tomasso Ciampa about his status in ROH;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YDOL0LjWPg
Man, if the guy can cut promos like this, why does ROH always have Nana and RD Evans doing the speaking for him? Maybe he should tone down the crazy just a notch, but that's easily the most I've cared about anything Ciampa's had to say and I'd buy a guy presented like that as a world title contender.
In CHIKARA news, 3.0 of Shane Matthews and Scott Parker are signed to defend the Campeonatos de Parejas titles against the former champs F.I.S.T. of Chuck Taylor and Icarus at 'The Contaminated Owl' on April 29th, after F.I.S.T. won a 4-way tag team elimination match last night, eliminating every other team to earn enough points for the title shot.
Jay Briscoe's a good dad, letting his kid know what's what;
@JayBriscoe84 - "... and i mean NEVER does this terry funk action figure do the job in your little toy wrestling federation" #prowrestlingdad"
*edit - did anyone watch Matt Taven vs Spirit Squad Mikey Mondo from last week's ROH? Just catching up now and the match was a lot of fun, really nice little feud their building here and they told a good story in and out of the ring. Impressed by Mondo.

Rad, it should be a pretty awesome weekend of shows next month. I'm thinking Uhaa will get replaced by Colt.

I'm not saying Lockdown is going to be amazing, but it has the potential to be a great show. Lockdown and Bound For Glory are always TNA's biggest shows and wrap up the last 6 months of storylines. Plus every match is in a cage. How many screwjob finishes could they actually have? Here are my picks
Storm vs Roode-It's Storm's time. The last 6 months have built up to Storm finally getting Roode.
Kurt Angle vs Jeff Hardy-I forgot why these guys are fighting, but I'll go with Hardy, since this show should be heavy on face wins.
Team Garret vs Team Eric BischoffI think someone is going to turn on Team Garret. Plus I just don't see Eric Bischoff taking himself off tv, although it would be great if he does.
Joe/Magnus vs MCMG-This is a tough one to choose as Joe/Magnus are shining as a tag team and MCMG are awesome. I pick Joe/Magnus to win and set up a rematch for next ppv. MCMG will take some insane bumps I'm sure.
Gail Kim vs Velvet Sky-Gail really should retain, but she's been champion a long time, so they will probably give it to Velvet. I hope one of them do a blade job.
Robbie E vs Devon-Who cares? Neither of these guys have been on tv since the last ppv where Devon won the tv title. They need to get the tv title over to someone who matters. I'll go with Devon winning, since he just won it last ppv.
Morgan vs Crimson-This is gonna be a bowling shoe of a match.
Storm vs Roode-It's Storm's time. The last 6 months have built up to Storm finally getting Roode.
Kurt Angle vs Jeff Hardy-I forgot why these guys are fighting, but I'll go with Hardy, since this show should be heavy on face wins.
Team Garret vs Team Eric BischoffI think someone is going to turn on Team Garret. Plus I just don't see Eric Bischoff taking himself off tv, although it would be great if he does.
Joe/Magnus vs MCMG-This is a tough one to choose as Joe/Magnus are shining as a tag team and MCMG are awesome. I pick Joe/Magnus to win and set up a rematch for next ppv. MCMG will take some insane bumps I'm sure.

Watching the classic ECWA Super 8 tournament from 2001 - Daniel Bryan looks like such a dweeb in his goofy red trousers, lol. His match with Spanky still holds up, and it's crazy to see Bryan do shit like Asai Moonsaults and the Royal Butterfly (which he later taught to Sara Del Rey, and she now uses as her finisher).
Promo from CHIKARA's Ophidian in which he threatens to bring an army of CHIKARA wrestlers to invade MidWest Wrestling; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dWmKa4pNpQ
I'm just rather alarmed at the fact that all this Kane love seems to be entirely un-ironic.
