So, who is Aces and Eights, besides Festus, Knox and Domino? lol
I'm trying to divided it up into teams. So far, from what I'm seeing, this is an agenda against Haul Kogan. So, I think this time, for a change, Hogan is actually staying face and it's going to be Ace and Eights leader against team TNA/Hogan.
I'm sticking with my original prediction that Brooke Hogan is the mastermind behind Aces and Eights, possibly with that TURD Bischoff.
I think Bully is turning full blown face. He's the guy that "can't be trusted" which means, tonight we CAN trust him lol.
I want to say Sting is apart of Aces and Eights, but it almost wouldn't work. First of all, they attacked Sting(that never stopped TNA crack before but hear me out) and if Sting IS apart of Aces and Eights, he can't get in the ring at all tonight until the end to screw bully. So I think Sting and Bully will go to war with Aces and Eights and it will end up as
Team Hogan/TNA:
Hogan Sting Bully Jeff Storm Angle Joseph Park
Team ace and eights:
Brooke Hogan Abyss Festus Joey Ryan MAYBE AJ Styles
Obviously there's going to be more and there's definitely going to be a top card mole too. But that's what I'm thinking for now.
I thought maybe Jeff would be Ace and Eight until they turned Aries heel last minute. The only reason I can see them doing that is to get Jeff over as a face tonight. So that kind of cancels him out. But it's still TNA so you never know!

Eric Bischoff
Knox, Festus, Kurt's mate whose name I have forgotten, Devon, Bischoff Jr, Matt Morgan. I suppose Tara would make too much sense.
If you want a Main Eventer in there, then we never actually saw them attacking Kurt. I think. Plus he's mates with whatshisname.
I don't really care which front office guy is in there (unless it's Dixie, in which case: LOL), but I guess they'll have one in there to explain the bikers getting in and out.
Bully is a red herring
I actually really wanted to put the one point on Sting and Bully in the pickems
I also think Roode is winning

oh Matt Morgan! I think you're onto something with that, especially since he's been invading live events and brogue kicking hitting the carbon footprint on guys

I think Pritchard is the office mole. Bischoff is the leader. Festus is the big guy who does the talking. Knox is the other big guy. Domino is one and Wes Briscoe is another. Angle being in on it would make more sense than a lot of the other possibilities. I can also see Aries being a late recruitment with the two of them joining forces. A+8s get the power that comes with having the champion in their ranks, while Aries has goons to help him keep the title. Matt Morgan is a good call.
I really don't want it to be Bischoff, but it will be. Garret will likely join the dark side again. Brooke might be involved too to make things even worse. I can also see Park and / or Abyss somehow being in on A+8s.
I'm just wondering what level of WTFface we will have come the end of the PPV after the crack smoke has been blown.

Yeah Pritchard is another one I forgot on the list. I actually think he's associated with Joey Ryan and they're aces and eights and making an ass out of Snow

I think it's safe to say Devon is in Aces & 8s then. I pretty much blew the pickems, but I called the Devon thing being a work. You know, as long as Eric Bischoff stays away, then I'm fine with Devon being the kingpin. The PPV is on TV in the UK in a couple of days, I'll try and remember to watch it. I don't think I like any of the title changes. It's absolutely mystifying to me what they've done to Aries. It's not even that he jobbed the title to Jeff (there's nothing wrong in principle with that, Jeff is kayfabe near the top of the tree), it's the way they've gone about it. Aries is basically just another guy now. Oh well.

BFG Thoughts
-So RVD beats Zima to win a title that everyone thinks RVD is bigger then. Good opener though.
-Joe beats Magnus, fun match.
-Storm vs Roode was excellent.
-Snow vs Ryan was our first holy shit moment. They dragged this thing out for months just for a Matt Morgan comeback?
-The tag triple threat was a lot of fun. Of course TNA decided it was time for the new Mexican stereo type team to win, I was hoping the champs would retain. I've already moved on though.
-Hey D'von was the Aces and 8s and not some Hogan or Bischoff. I'll give this the benefit of the doubt for now.
-Jeff beats Aries and is now the champ. I don't care to much for that title change.

We forgot all about the "recent ex wwe talent" rule. Whenever a guy that was once in WWE joins Tna, he gets rewarded with a title within the first 2 months. In this case, Hernandez was lucky to team with Chavo.
Gotta give you credit on that one. I really thought D-von was gone simply because it happened just like real life....You know, not coming to an agreement and just disappearing and relinquishing a title behind the scenes and all. TNA actually pulled that one off pretty well. I figured they would've been stupid and talked about D-von more. But I'm actually glad he's the leader. It's a fresh idea and D-Von is a big name that's been flying under the radar for years. I'm looking at it now, not like, why did they used D-Von for this role but hey, why the hell not use D-von for this role?
I don't either since they gave us no reason to give a shit about Jeff during the BFG series. Even though Aries vs. Jeff is pretty much as good of a main event for the biggest PPV you can have in TNA, when the match was starting I thought, I'm not really ready for this

The event was a bit of a let down. It was OK, but nothing really stole the show or left a lasting impression. It feels like they went down the wrong path with certain angles. I agree with Champ that, while the match was decent, there was nothing to get me emotionally invested in the Aries v Hardy match.
Devon as the leader of A+8s, I suppose we'll have to see where it goes. It didn't feel like much of a reveal. He was the only guy unmasked, and I still think Bischoff will be the real leader.
Matt Morgan sucks.
Tara's boyfriend was Rob Terry all along.
Isn't there supposed to be a weight limit in the X-Division now? A limit that Bob Van Dam would probably exceed.
Roode v Storm was my favourite part of the show. It was a good hardcore match and they kept Mister Mo's involvement to a minimum.

They were building up James Storm (for the second year in a row) to be the BFG Series winner and once again homeboy loses out. They might as well call it the Fuck James Storm Over Series.

How quickly we forget. The X-Division isn't about weight limits, it's about no limits. Actually Naitch they reintroduced the weight limit earlier in the year. On the other hand, the TV Title was supposed to be defended every week. So who fucking knows.
