The search for a new mechanic

Depends on your definition of "great". He had about a million matches with Abyss which I thought were in the ***-ish range. TNA just never booked that many really big guys, and even AJ isn't going to be able to pull a great match out of the Matt Morgans of the world. EDIT: and oh yeah, if Samoa Joe counts, of course Styles had several legit great matches with him.

Would you consider Samoa Joe in that category? I rate their match at Turning Point as the best match in TNA history. And I don't mean that as a backhanded compliment, because it's legitimately a great match.

Actually Timbo HHH ending a 1 year Austin heel run at WM XVIII was the original plan. The Austin heel turn being aborted changed all that.

Are there examples of Styles having great matches with superheavyweights? I'm just curious. I'd define a superheavyweight as anyone Brock's size or bigger.

The Abyss cage match is probably the only great match. Had a damn fun match with Bad Luck Fale in this year's G1 which has to count for something considering the dregs that you often get with Fale matches.
