Blind Tag Column My Thoughts on Wrestling for the Week of Jan 4th 2010

This was the big show down. The return of Monday Night Wars.

It was the biggest let down in the business in months. Neither team showed any of their strengths.
Both companies blew goat backwards. I am just glad I did not make any bets on this or else I would have been very lost indeed.

The spoiler reporters are buzzing with the fact the replay of TNA Impact was edited.
And injury reports for TNA are a few more then I like. Hamada injured her leg, and Alex Shelley is said to have a back/neck injury.

It seemed to me when I finally did get to see the show, that Shelley's injury happened when Lethal pulled him off the cage. It looked as if he tried to hang on too long, and he was not moving much at all for the rest of it. Very unlike him.
I have no idea what this will mean for him or my tag team MotorCityMachine Guns! I hope the reports of his injury has been blown out of proportion and pray that he is alright.

They are setting up the "Front Line" for a new story it seems. Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin and Rhino were all knocked out but some unseen but very hinted at group. Will we see the return of the NWO? Christ I hope not. Worst gimmick WCW ever did.

The rumours of Jeff Hardy showing up were unfortunately true. Another waste of skin. He needs to go back to the limbo of nothingness he was in before Monday night.

Speaking of the other company, they pulled out what they figured would top TNA's list of oldies. The return of Bret Hart. That was a smart move, even I have to admit. Still was not enough to shake down the tree of woe that was a 2.2 million viewer rating for TNA.
WWE had one ace up their sleeve other then Bret Hart, and that was more matches less filler. For once .
Sheamus was still the highlight of the night. My white knight kicked ass in his match against Evan Bourne. Maybe he listened to what I had to say and decided he needs to be more a pure wrestler and less a hardcore one?

I was overly disgusted by TNA this week. My team really let me down hard. They used way too much filler and were very cheap on the matches. The Wolfe/Pope match could have been used better then just popcorn and the X-Division match was inefficient. Eric Young was nowhere to be seen. Even JB was used wrong.
