I think you covered most of the same things I was criticising in recent posts. Sting and Nash fighting age discrimination and being heels apparently. Dixie getting screentime and everyone in the company falling over themselves to say how awesome she is. Calling a stable FOURtune and then having it consist of four members for maybe two week. Bischoff bischoffing being Bischoff. Hamada and Taylor winning the women's tag belts and then not being on the show for weeks. The Beautiful People break-up and reallignment being longer than War And Peace, and in V's opinion being the worst angle in wrestling of the last 3 years.
I just can't be bothered with this shit at the moment. I don't know how much you've missed MS, but you should check out the best-of-5 series between Beer Money and the Machine Guns if you can find it on youtube or something.

Listen to V, MS. The best of five series between Beer Money and the Machine Guns was INSANE.
I've started fast forwarding between matches. I can't be bothered with that shit. But the in ring action is good enough to keep recording the show for.

I saw the Guns win the titles, then I think I also saw them lose the first match of the series. I'll keep an eye out and see if I can watch those matches.

One of the things mentioned in this thread that pisses me off about TNA is they can't have a good main event match without Bischoff Bischoffing himself, Dixie Bischoffing Bischoff, then Dixie being the center of the aftermath. Bischoff turned the next PPV main event into a triple, Dixie overturned it. Then Bischoff re-overturned it. Then Dixie's vagina started to hurt over it. Maybe the problem is I just hate Dixie and any exposure she gets. How much you want to bet she takes the Stephanie McMahon route and becomes the top chick heel in the company soon just to piss us off further?

Mickie James apparently just signed with TNA, so it might be happening sooner than you think. I could totally see them turning the Beautiful People h... wait a minute... the Original Beautiful People (sigh) heel already (yes, ALREADY), with Dixie as their figurehead. Then Stone Cold Mickie James will have no chance in hell and I'm depressed because it's all so plausible. I like Mickie but I can't see anything good coming out of her joining the Knockouts division at this time. Just because the Knockouts division is so fucking stupid.

My quick thoughts on Impact this week
Abyss vs Rob Terry-The MVP of this match was the fan that was taunting Abyss.
Jeremy Buck vs Chris Sabin-Good for what it was.
Joe vs Pope-Was pretty good until the geriatrics decided to show up.
Sabu vs AJ-I've seen some good ladder matches and I've seen some bad ones. This happens to be the worst one I've seen. If you want to, check out Sabus dive onto the crowd of people again. He takes out Dreamer and some security people. Fourtune more then narrowly avoided that one.

I got through half of Impact. I still have it dvr'd but I plan on checking out the rest. I even taped REACTION. I saw half of that last week but I'll check it out again. I didn't want to see all of it because of Dixie's hurting vag

What the hells up with TNA not showing the end of the main events? I recorded it and I see Morgan and Nash fist bump and then bam end of recording. Its pretty bullshit. And considering that besides Flair vs Foley everything else was shit before the battle royal. Now I'm not buying Bound For Glory twice.

I like Mickie but I can't see anything good coming out of her joining the Knockouts division at this time. Day 1. Introduce yourself to the fans, and make sure they all remember your name. Including the people writing the captions.

After you introduce yourself and the people writing the captions get your name spelling wrong, you may as well say, fuck it, and forget who the knockout champ is in your first backstage interview

I watched last week's Impact as well as Bound For Stupidity.
Umm... I don't have too much to say on it all actually. What the hell was that ending all about?

It's Hogan's reattempt at the NWO again. Sting, Nash, and Pope have been seemingly playing heels saying they know Bischoff and Hogan are up to something and there's a conspiracy going on.
In the meantime, Abyss has been saying "They" are coming on 10/10/10(BFG). It turns out Sting, Nash, and Pope were right about the conspiracy and Hardy, Jarrett, Hogan, Bischoff, and Abyss basically became the company's top heels. It makes no sense though because Hardy and Abyss tried killing eachother last month

It wasn't a bad idea. It's just hampered by their clusterfucky execution. It's like of the million things that have happened on their show, we should have been really paying attention to these 1,678 things.
As for Jeff and Abyss fighting, maybe THEY spiked Jeff's drugs with punch. Made him think funny. Remember when Jeff was the biggest babyface in wrestling? Hahahaha
And having thrown the Knockouts' title in the bin, and then throwing the bin in the back of the garbage truck, they shoot the garbage truck into the sun on Thursday's Impact. It's like a greatest hits of WCW stupidity compressed into a year's worth of Knockouts storylines.

I do like the result. But it's like you said, the way they jump through unnecessary hoops is what gets ridiculous
