BBB’s Notebook – TNA Final Resolution 2011

-MATCH: Rob Van Dam vs. Christopher Daniels.

 

-Van Dam wins with the 5 star. Nothing fancy, just a solidly worked wrestling match by both guys. Even some (gasp!) psychology.

 

-MATCH: TNA Television title – Eric Young vs. Robbie E (c)

 

-E retains with a lungblower after interference from Robbie T. Nothing overly special but a decent match. Rob Terry needs to go away.

 

-MATCH: TNA Tag Team Titles – Matt Morgan & Crimson (c) vs. The Pope & D-Von.

 

-What a mish-mash.

 

-D-Von gets pinned after a double chokeslam. Bland match, they better pull the trigger on this angle with his kids. I’m rapidly losing interest.

 

-MATCH: X-Division title – Austin Aries (c) vs. Kid Kash.

 

-Aries hits the brainbuster for the win after some comedy with the belt and some knuckle dusters. Really good match that I’m glad they gave a fair bit of time to. Both guys did great work.

 

-Some technical difficulties make them look Bush league.

 

-MATCH: TNA Knockouts title – Gail Kim (c) vs. Mickey James.

 

-Gail hits Eat Defeat for the win with help from Madison Rayne. I expected a lot more from this match but it was a little slow and plodding for my taste.

 

-MATCH: Kurt Angle vs. James Storm.

 

-Storm wins a pretty physical match with the Superkick. Good, hard-hitting stuff. Wouldn’t mind a rematch.

 

-MATCH: Steel Cage Match – Jeff Jarrett vs. Jeff Hardy.

 

-Hardy hits a 3rd Twist of Fate after botched interference… Decent enough match I suppose. Sting says 4 days from now a Jarrett gets fired. Way to reward your paying customers.

 

-MATCH: TNA World Title Ironman Match – AJ Styles vs. Bobby Roode (c)

 

-Taz doing a great Jon on commentary of helping sell Styles’ leg injury.

 

-Roode gets a fall ten minutes in after knocking Styles off the middle rope by his knee. Awesome work this far.

 

-Roode goes up another fall with a figure four leglock about half way in. Cue the comeback….

 

-Roode goes shoulder first into the buckle and Styles locks on a cross face and Roode taps. Now Roode has a target on his body. Love the booking.

 

-Styles catches Roode in a small package with 9:45 to go. All ties up.

 

-Styles hits corkscrew springboard splash for a pin with 7 minutes to go.

 

-With 5 to go Roode holds the rope to pin Styles. Tied up again.

 

-Storm runs away from AJ for the last minute or so and the match ends in a tie. Normally I hate a non-decisive ppv finish but it worked here. Really great match, they really click together. Otherwise a pretty lackluster show.
