My TNA Archive Catch-up, Show 54 16 Jul 03

Mike Tenay & Don West are on colour, Jeremy Borash is ring announcer & Scott Hudson is doing interviews.
D-Lo Brown vs Sonny Siaki (with Trinity) - Brown took the win off a Bridge after Trinity nailed Saiki with a Fly Crossbody Block by mistake.
Last Man Standing Match, Justin Credible vs Jerry Lynn - The stipulation here was you had to score a pin and THEN keep your opponant down for a 10 count to get the win, this was very bloody and went in & out of the ring. Tables were used, blood flowed. Lynn took the eventual win after a Tombstone Cradle Piledriver for the pin then he swept Credibles leg to put him down for the duration of the 10 count though the call was VERY iffy.
The 3 Live Kru debate the meaning of life in Nashville.
X Division Championship, Frankie Kazarian vs Chris Sabin - Kazarian took the win to become new X Division champ after nailing Sabin with the belt whilst the ref was down. Then a 2nd ref came out, threw the decision out after explaining how the win was gained and the call was reverse with Sabin retaining his title.
Tag Match, The Harris Brothers vs New Jack & Shark Boy - Heavy D took the win off New Jack with the 8 Bomb. Shark Boy was unmasked but escaped having his face seen after Nwe Jack gave him the mask he'd been wearing.
Failed attempt at a Cat Fight between Dancers Lollipop & April Pennington against Nurse Veronica and an unnamed Cheerleader. This was NOT any kind of official match, it was just a brawl on the entrance ramped broken up by security.
Elix Skipper vs Amazing Red - highlights were Skipper standing on the floor nailing a DDT on Red who was laying on the canvas, Reds Flying Headscissors into a DDT & Reds Standing Hurricanrana (f**king AWESOME) but Skipper took the eventual win after nailing Red with a set of scales.
Edward Chastain (with Don Callis) vs Screamin' Norman Smiley - Smiley had a pretty ok match on the whole but Chastain took the win off the Ground Zero Splash.
Simon Diamond & Johnny Swinger (with Glenn Gilberti) call Jeremy Borash into the ring to bitch about their match last week. AMW end up coming in to make a save but a couple of chairshots floored them. It took Raven coming in from the crowd to p**s on their party though, hitting a lovely combination Bulldog & Clothesline. AMW took advantage beating Diamond & Swinger out of the arena as Raven called out Shane Douglas & James Mitchell. Raven was pretty much owning Douglas about the nail the Even Flow DDT when Brian Lee & Slash of The New Church made the save on Douglas, Raven ended up taking 4 Droptoe Holds into a chair.
Legend vs Jeff Jarrett - I apologize for calling him Joe in the previous review but thats how the colour guys were referring to him, he was billed and introduced this week as Legend. Jarrett took this into the crowd but a run in by Vince Russo distracted the ref long enough for Legend to use the bat and take the win here.
D-Lo Brown gets his 5 minutes to kick Vince Russo's ass. Which never happened because AJ Styles tried to interfere and got himself locked in a cage, then Sonny Siaki tried to interfere and got himself handcuffed to the top rope, then Trinty stupidly tried to jump Brown from behind which earned her a Sit-Out Powerbomb. Even Legend made a run-in but he eventually got thrown into the side of the cage containing Styles. Brown got the s**t beaten out of him when Styles kicked the cage door open.
