RE: Impact wrestling discussion on 5STAR
my thoughts on Slammiversary
Knockouts Tag Team Championship Match: Fire 'N Flava vs. Decay
a solid 7 out of 10 match to start, it was rushed as didn't have the time they needed, it was the right thing to do changing the belts as Decay have become very popular as they have run through the womans division over the last 2 months,
Ultimate X for the X-Division Championship
this was a really good match from 6 of the most creative talented professional wrestlers in the world at the moment,
i really loved the whole match, the submission spot midway through the contest was like nothing i had seen before so creative the x division at its best ,
was great to see Williams using his trademark Canadian Destroyer still looks as good as he did years ago,
seeing Austin crash and burn with his dive for the belt at the end was amazing,
was the right call to let Alexander keep the belt, 9 out of 10
Mixed Tag Team Match
this was a really fun little match it didnt have much time but they filled every minute with great action, Cardona and Myers continued there excellent long running feud, and was a great way to introduce Green and set up a short feud with Dashwood before she goes after the belt 8 out of 10
Eddie Edwards vs. W. Morrissey
Morrissey big push towards being world champ continues in a hard hitting match againts the crowds fave babeface Eddie it was as expected 7 out of 10
next Fin Juice Returned
Shera and Madman Fulton interrupted a ringside interview which got D'Amore to come and tell them he was booking them in a surprise match against Fin Juice,
it was a nothing match but was fun and gave the fans there first chance to see fin juice live, will be interesting to see if they stick around 6 out of 10
Chris Sabin vs. Moose
this was a solid styles clash type match its showed Moose's ruthlessness and Sabin's ability to overcome it all to score a win, the strange bit was why Sabin won as Moose has just signed a new 2 year deal and is confirmed to be next to go after Kenny, i can only hope Moose gets his revenge soon, 6 out of 10
Fatal 4-Way for the Impact Tag Team Championships
With TJP ruled out Fallah Bahh revealed former WWE star No Way Jose as his tag team partner
i didn't like this match as there was 2 much going on at times it felt like a rumble,
putting the belts back on Gallows and Anderson i dont get ever as both have already beat everyone and have no new matchs to do, i guess Impact want them to have the belts on AEW tv, 5 out of 10
Knockouts Championship Match: Deonna Purrazzo vs. Thunder Rosa
a truly great match 2 of the best female wrestlers in the world gave a great technical wrestling match it was such fun to watch, lots of great back and forth until Deonna got the win which was the only bad thing as they where just getting started when the match ended out of no where i am sure impact could have given this 10 more mins,
after the match Mickie James who has been working as a producer on NWA came out and invited Deonna to be on the NWA all female PPV thats coming up,
so looks like a new forbidden door between impact ans NWA has opened, 9 out of 10
No DQ Match for the Impact World Championship: Sami Callihan vs. Kenny Omega
this was the match of the night it was ultra violent i can see why lots of people on line are calling it one of the best matches of the year so far,
Kenny looked like a total badass for overcoming everything Sami through at him AEW should book him the way impact do as a proper dominant champ,
booking Sami as Kenny equal made him and moved him up to perminate main event level,
but the really big news happened after the match when Jay White the NJPW NEVER Openweight champion the man who was the leader of Bullet Club that had Kenny and the The Good Brothers as members,
the fact he looked at all Kenny belts that where on show and the top of the ramp and then denying the victors a Too Sweet at the end of the show blow my mind if hes going after Kenny belts wow is all i can say, match 8 out of 10 post match 10 out of 10
its been announced that Bound For Glory heading to Las Vegas so i wonder if the main event that night will be between The Elite and The Bullet Club for control of all the belts would AEW let that happen that could be the most important PPV since the days of the original NWA, as AAA are there as well and the new NWA, that many promotions on one night is mind blowing so many matches i never expected to see could happen,
currently walking on the Sunny side of the street
