My Weekly TNA Catch-up, Impact 12th Nov 09 reviewed

Dr Stevie (with Daffney) vs Abyss - Mick Foley came out to sit at the colour desk & they forgot to mention if Stevie lost he leaves TNA forever, this match was going nowhere & Abyss had Stevie pinned off The Black Hole Slam when the lights went out. When the lights came back up both guys were on the canvas & Dr Stevie made the pin. Foley went to save Abyss from a chair & was about to nail Stevie with the same chair when the lights went out again, we saw a fireball & the lights came back up then Raven was revealed as the instigator.

Alissa Flash vs Traci - I have to assume Flash either only had half a costume or suffered some kind of wardrobe malfunction prematch hence her coming out in the rather plain but extremely tight sweater that totally didn't match the rest of her outfit, after smashing one of Traci's arms into the canvas a few times Flash took the win off a rather tame Armbar that Traci tapped out of.

Black Machismo Invitational Match, Jay Lethal vs Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart - Anvil was looking extremely portly (quite frankly he looks like he swallowed The Big Boss Man) but this must be his 1st time in the ring in over 15 years easily? Anvil was on top for all of 12 seconds before commencing the job to Lethal, I did appreciate the Clothesline but he looked gassed once he'd done it. Lethal was on top for a for moments more but Anvil took the win off a lovely Powerslam.

8 Knockout Tag Match, The Beautiful People & Awesome Kong vs ODB, Taylor Wilde, Sarita & Tara - Tara made a nice start with her Chinlock, Floatover & Bridge & Madison Rayne sold it pretty well too, it also seems wardrobe have rethought Lacey Von Erichs tube top making her wear a bra under it so it seems TNA DO read these catch-ups as I expressed that possible flaw a few shows back (Impact 15th Oct 09 to be exact).

Even doing just a few moves sent Laceys top on the way down which I assume is the reason why Velvet Sky was in the ring when we came back from the commercial break, ODB came in flooring half the heel team nailing Rayne with a Fallaway Slam only to walk into a stiff Clothesline from Von Erich stood behind her. Tara made the save but walked into a big right hand from Kong on the apron who finally entered the match legally to Bodycheck Wilde off into oblivion before nailing the Implant Buster to take the win for her team.

Kurt Angle comes out to waffle only to be interupted by Desmond Wolfe on the video screen but its a recording & Wolfe tries & fails to jump Angle from behind, Angle misses a chairshot on the floor but Wolfe connects with the DDT on the mats before flooring Angle with the chair.

6 Man X Division Tag Match, The Motor City Machine Guns & Amazing Red vs Sheik Abdul Bashir, Kiyoshi & Homicide - Super Dave Osborne (whoever the fuck he is) joins the colour desk, essentially this match was Alex Shelley jobbing to the heels until Homicide went crazy & tried to bring a barbed wire baseball bat into the match then got carted off by Black Shirt Security. Amazing Red came in & owned Kiyoshi & Bashir nailing Kiyoshi with a lovely Tornado style DDT but Alex Shelley took the win off a Crossbody Block on Bashir.

Team 3D come out with Rhino & make a heel turn calling out Matt Morgan & Hernandez for a fight, D'Angelo Dinero comes out of the heel tunnel & volunteers himself to be their 3rd man.

Non-title Tag Match, The British Invasion vs Beer Money - Basically the Brits have to win this or Beer Money get to be part of the tag title match in this weekends PPV. This was a really poor match with Beer Money taking the screamingly predictable win with the DWI off Brutus Magnus.

Non-title Match, Samoa Joe vs AJ Styles - Very poor quality match that was only ever going to be 5 minutes long at best, Joe did nothing with most of the match on the mat & Joe took the win off the Rear Naked Chokehold after Christopher Daniels distracted Styles.
