kessleragain,

That was a fun show! It was nice being able to chat about it too

Definitely! It's not always the busiest place but it's pretty friendly.

kessleragain,

Deonna is so brutal.

kessleragain,

Impact has really made me care about Josh Alexander.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Definitely. I thought he was on his way to AEW after Brandi mentioned him.

kessleragain,

Oh man, I forgot about that! I thought the same.

kessleragain,

I didn’t watch TNA back in the day. Sometimes I wonder how much I would’ve hated Bully Ray back then if I had.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

I didn't catch that era either. I'm guessing he was one of Hogan's/Bischoff guys? Either way I don't mind his comeback run. Started off rough but he's been okay lately.

kessleragain,

I only keep up with NJPW via hearing from fans online. This match is immediately hilarious to me. Sanada is here in Impact for a non-title match and also EVIL stole his belt. Amazing.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

EVIL stole his belt and now he's wrestling a guy named something. And Sanada is in Canada. It's all a fever dream lol

kessleragain,

I didn’t expect Eddie v Frankie to go like this

Travon333,

Yeah it was certainly an interesting choice

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Yeah. It was shorter than I thought it'd be too.

And that kendo stick to the back of a grieving Kazarian was just mean. The Edward's are heartless.

kessleragain,

I might not know my feelings about Subculture yet, but I didn’t want them to lose to those pesky Rascalz.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

I have bad news ;p

EDIT: Sorry I mistook "didn't" for "don't" lol

kessleragain,

Naw, I’m onto you. You wanted to rub it in. Lol

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

I'm sorry I just really like Trey Miguel lol

kessleragain,

Subculture hasn’t quite clicked for me yet.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

I like what I've seen so far. But I thought they won the belts a bit too early in their Impact career. I guess Scott must love them.

kessleragain,

Yeah, I don’t have any problems with them. Just got the belts a bit early and I haven’t figured out my feelings about them.

ryper,

Having them take the titles around the UK was probably good for promoting the UK tour.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Yeah good point. I forgot that was coming up soon.

kessleragain,

I can’t help but root for Johnny Swinger.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Me too. I love King but Johnny's a solid comedy act.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

It took me a while to 'get' Johnny Swinger but I'm a fan now. Love the old school references.

Travon333,

Killer Kelly is so sexual.

Did they basically so a BTW trigger into a tag team Tigger driver?

kessleragain,

I’m terrible with move names, but yeah, it did look like that.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

I'm not sure but it looked good. And yeah that's a great way to describe Kelly's character. Just straight up 'sexual' lol

kessleragain,

That was quite the pin by MK Ultra.

kessleragain,

I’m definitely rooting for MK Ultra.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Same here. And I do think they'll win. And for bonus points I'm going to say Savannah eats the pin

kessleragain,

Make it so. It does feel early for them to lose.

Travon333,

Nice little card. Hopefully there a few video packages to fill in the gaps for me

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Yeah, it's a nice little dessert after the feast that was All In lol

kessleragain,

I’m simple. I like seeing Deaner getting beat up.

TellumSiege,
@TellumSiege@kbin.social avatar

Yeah he's great to root against lol
