I guess he can't use the name Justin Credible anymore. PJ goes in right after Raven. PJ is all over Raven to start.

Team Canada vs. 3 Live Kru - Kip James as Special Guest Ref - Hockey Stick on a Pole Match

Konnan does a shout out to Eddie. BG does his schtick, and Team Canada tries to the hockey sticks. You have to be the legal man to get a hockey stick down from one of the 6 corners.

The lights go out, and we see a countdown on the screen....CHRISTIAN CAGE IS IN TNA! Christian says that he in TNA so he doesn?t have to see a grown man dress up like a doctor and pretend to pull things out of another man's ass. He's there so that the same person says that same thing every week. And he isn?t there because he was fired. He is there because he loves wrestling. He also mentions that he was not low balled in a contract offer, he just wanted to be part of something big. He wants Jarrett to know that he is there to take the NWA title. Scott D'Amore & Bobby Roode come on out to welcome Christian. D'Amore mentions some old times they had together with 'Adam, Jericho and Lance.' D'Amore wants Cage to join them. With Cage, they can be unstoppable. Cage wants to ask a question, but Roode gets in the middle of things, and says that they need an answer right now. D'Amore shuts up Roode, and then he gives Cage a TNeh shirt, saying that they don?t need an answer now, but they need one by the end of the night.

Show Over.

[Guest TheShawshankRudotion]

The Good:

 

- Samoa Joe turning on Daniels. REALLY well done. Inappropriate to have a "we'll update you on his condition" angle following a wrestlers death, though

 

- Christians promo.

 

- The 8 man elimination match (I... um... yes... yes... uh huh... yep. I'm an Alex Shelly fan. Great facial expressions.) It was weird how they had the finishing sequences IN THE MIDDLE of the match.

 

- THE MAIN EVENT? That was a really good brawl. Ended rather anti-climatically, and I didn't like how they teased the gore through the table in the entrance way and not pay off. But overall it was so much better than it should have been.

 

- Sabu vs. Abyss (???) - Another better than it should have been matches. Its weird cause it sorta had psychology in it...

 

The Bad:

 

There wasn't anything really bad about the show, it's just a lot of the matches fell a bit flat. The 3LK match, Brown vs. Hardy, Raven/Credible (Ok, Raven doing MMA moves was the highlight of the show...), Styles vs. Williams had some great moments, but felt random.
