yeah this past Thursday even made more sense to me that this could be Bully Ray's evil plan all along. He instructs Aces and Eights to not attack certain guys and confuse people. I have a feeling this could be leading up to Bully taking the belt from Aries at BFG. TNA doesn't care about the ultimate face payoff at the biggest PPV, so it could definitely happen
Yeah Tara was looking a little flabbier lately and she suddenly tightened right back up. I had a chub for her this week
The funniest part about it is, the best comparison I can make to that is a triple 3 stooges slap. Go figure
I'm just so glad we never have to see Claire's ugly face again. And newsflash TNA, Claire wasn't pregnant the first time we saw her. AND yes, Daniels rules. He's seriously never been better than he is now
What a choad that fucking guy was. I really hope they don't give him a contract. Taz, the smart guy he is, pointed out that he saw a lot of noticeable flaws. So hopefully that's one less vote already
My swing for the rafters guess, meaning it probably won't be true but I wouldn't be surprised if it was, is Brooke Hogan and Bully Ray are fucking and put together this plan

I'm not sure why, but I laughed hard when that lawyer woman told Daniels to "get your hands off me." She told him straight and acted more authoritatively with that one sentence than AJ has in about ten years of Daniels torturing him.
Bully Ray is now looking like the lead suspect as the ringleader of A+8s. I'm enjoying the angle enough and just hope the pay-off is decent.
The Gut Check guy really sucked. Therefore, I am predicting he will be world champion by October. Also, if Joey Ryan doesn't show up next week we can kiss that angle goodbye.
Eric Young is way late with that chicken.

Oh well, that's another gimmick ruined. "You'll never hear Champ call Taz a smart guy, except for that one time" doesn't have the same ring to it. Taz pointing out the choad's "mistakes" hopefully doesn't bode well for him. I don't really care too much what the payoff for the bikers is (Chuck Palambo? Tara? Undertaker?), as long as it's not Bischoff. Senior or Junior, for that matter. But particularly not Senior.

For me, it's kind of like what MS said. I'm interested enough in the Aces and Eights angle. I'm also prepared for them to fuck everything up in the end. so, I'll just enjoy the ride before the inevitable crash.
And V, Taz is still stupid, just to clarify my sarcasm

Well they didn't give that loser a contract, so I'm okay with it. I have no problem with some complete no-hopers showing up and failing. It helps the winners look better in comparison, too.
I was only half-paying attention to the knockouts segment. Did that make any sense? I have another controversial opinion on Taryn Terrell: she has nice tits.
Daniels rules. WWE should either try to sign him, or get Drew McIntyre or Miz to play exactly the same character, because it's gold.
Oh hey, Kurt kicked out of the Swanton Bomb. Of course. I was half expecting him to kick out of the second one as well.
Aces & 8s hurting Aries' "wrong" arm was pretty funny. I liked the deal at the end of the show, although I am wondering what was with the dude (for a moment I thought it was Matt Hardy) putting ON the mask on the ring apron. Was that a fuck up? Next week they should have Tenay and Taz (Sting & Hogan as well, for that matter) poring over the still shots of that guy, trying to work out who he is.

Yeah, it would have been a joke if they gave that guy a contract. I am sick of Gut Check already. Al Snow has his moments, but the other two judges are annoying and stupid. Jeremy Borash's "Gyyyeeuuuuuuuuuuutt Cheaaaaaaccccccchhhhhk!" line is cringe worthy. All the damn sob stories that come along with the wrestlers is also tiresome. They have also stretched this potential Joey Ryan thing out too long, I feel.
For the Knockouts bit, what happened was Brooke lied to Madison that she was getting a title shot, but Brooke also told O.D.B. that she had a match with Madison. It was cool to see Eric Young back. Chicken and beer and all.
The Angle vs Hardy match was pretty good, but I also thought he might kick out of the second Swanton too. Someone needs to take Angle out with one quick finisher again like Storm did to make us think that a finisher might actually put him away.
The guy putting the mask on before getting in the ring looked planned. I don't know what the significance of that is, if it's some sort of biker thing or if he just forgot to put it on (I'm siding with this explanation), but it was a decent end to the show. Aries getting owned two weeks in a row doesn't make him look very good, but hopefully it makes sense. Bully Ray has been first on the scene two weeks in a row now after Aries got taken out. He's trying too hard to look innocent and caring.
I read that Devon has left TNA. LOL. I'm going to miss those TV Title matches every single week on Impact.
Bobby Roode has been gone for a few weeks now. I'm beginning to fear a little that they will forget about him getting beat up by A+8s and reveal him as the leader. They wouldn't be that stupid though... would they?

Al Snow has his moments, but the other two judges are annoying and stupid. Pritchard is annoying and stupid. Taz is stupid and annoying. See, that's what I thought happened. That's why I thought I must have missed something. For a moment I thought she was challenging for ODB's tag title. What an odd segment. I think it's safe to say Devon is in Aces & 8s then. The guy putting on the mask in full view of everyone was such a weird little moment. If it was a fuckup, I hope they don't try to ignore it and instead try to make it some kind of mysterious biker ritual like you suggested.

Al Snow has his moments, but the other two judges are annoying and stupid. Pritchard is annoying and stupid. Taz is stupid and annoying. Spot on. I still wouldn't rule out some of the guys that have been beaten up by A+8s as potential leaders. It's definitely not Aries, but they could always just claim to have beaten up someone like Storm to cool the suspicions on him but still reveal him as the leader. I just really hope they don't bischoff the angle...

Man, they actually came up with a plausible (for wrestling, anyhow) explanation for That Guy from last week. There's clearly a core group of three or four guys in Aces & 8s, and I like the idea that they're "auditioning" guys for membership (and really just using them to do their dirty work and discarding them).
I hate these "Hogan takes forever to pick a contender" scenes.
For a moment there I thought Gail and Tara were going to make out. Oh well. Tara is looking smoking.
Joey Ryan being behind Aces & 8s wouldn't be the worst idea ever. I'm assuming he's going to make Snow tap out in 45 seconds. Snow's reaction to "it's not the 90s anymore" was brilliant though.
Speaking of, RVD's reactions to Magnus were hilarious as well.
Some good matches this week. Hernandez still sucks, though. Fun show overall.

That was the funniest heel turn of the year. I guess the final lesson is having to beat Evil Tara. Am I imagining it, or has she had her implants taken out?
Daniels rules.
Roode vs Storm is a bit underwhelming, although there's something to be said to having a blow-off to a long angle (coughWintercough). And you know, I'm not at all convinced that Storm is going to win the inevitable BFG match.
At first I was thinking "So how many people in that meeting with Dixie are going to be in Aces & 8s". Then the people in that meeting started saying as much out loud. Amazing. It had a bad horror movie vibe to it (which is a good thing). Tune in next week to Wrestling Lost to find out.
PERHAPS THE BIKERS ARE ALL GHOSTS

That was the funniest heel turn of the year. I guess the final lesson is having to beat Evil Tara. Am I imagining it, or has she had her implants taken out? I was almost convinced that she actually wasn't going to come back and wreck Brooke. Glad she did though. As for the boobs, I think you've been paying more attention than I have up there. She might have had them moved down to her ass though. It makes sense to build it up again and have them settle it at BFG. It does need an added spice or two to make the dish interesting again, but I think by the time we get to the PPV they should have found ways to make it the match appealing. Brother Pritchard is far too sleazy to not be involved with A+8s. I suppose if they are already inside, it would make sense for the talent relations guy to be the one, or one of the ones, pulling the strings. Would it surprise anyone at this point if they did that? Impact opens one week with four rip-off Ghostbusters whipping our their proton packs and shooting up the bikers, and the show ends with them dragging them into a ghost trap. Sting, Hulk, and the boys celebrate in the ring while Dixie announces the Ghostbusters as the first inductees into the TNA Hall of Fame celebrity wing. I agree that Hardy winning the BFG Series was the wrong choice. It seems they baulked at having the logical Aries vs Bully match at BFG. I still kinda think Bully will squirm his way into a triple threat match and actually hope he does.

I'm still going with my crackhead prediction from day one. It's Brooke Hogan behind the Aces and Eights. Hogan can never bring in a family member or a close friend without creating something extremely controversial that involves a faction.

I heard that Bischoff is a bit of a motorcycle fan. That isn't something I wanted to hear.
