Impact (April 18th, 2024) – Pre-Rebellion And… Eh?

Okay, so this is the go-home show for Rebellion… a show that already happened, but most people probably forgot about because there was also an AEW PPV. I have watched neither show, but do plan on watching the Rebellion show this week.

RAW (April 15th, 2024) – Damned That Shorty G!

We had a RAW show from Montreal, which was a totally nothing happening show that was headlined by a pretty awesome Sami Zayn vs. Shorty G match, followed by a dispicable act on the part of that sore loser, Shorty G. You sorry bastard couldn’t get the job done beating GUNTHER and now you couldn’t even beat the guy who beat GUNTHER and on top of that, he’s the same guy you HELPED TRAINED to beat GUNTHER and you still couldn’t beat him. And now I’m supposed to feel sorry for you and say that you deserve it? Fuck off, man. You suck. You’re a loser. You don’t deserve shit!

TNA Hard To Kill 2024

It’s a bold new era, indeed… so bold that I actually went ahead and made a new banner rather than reuse the same, tired Steven Seagal Hard To Kill banner that I’ve been using for the previous shows.

So yes… we’re doing a brand-spanking new TNA PPV in 2024.

This year’s Hard To Kill event signified the re-branding of Impact Wrestling back to TNA Wrestling, complete with old-but-slightly-newish TNA logo, the old-but-slightly-newest TNA Impact logo for the TV Show that looks like a 3-year old designed it, and they even brought back the old “Cross The Line” song that the hardcore TNA fans liked so much and… well, what do you want me to say? Good to see TNA back after all these years? Why would I say that since I’ve kept calling them TNA even when they didn’t? And while the show has seen a considerable improvement in the years since the first changeover to Impact back in 2017, the show did some very TNA things that still made it TNA.

But that was then and this is… well, it’s still then. But it’s a bold new era for TNA and with Scott D’Amore leading the charge, I’m sure everything will be just fine and el dandy for TNA…

Wait, what’s that?

They fired Scott D’Amore soon after?

Really?

Well… fuck that, then.

Okay, well… let’s dive into Hard To Kill, shall we?

Impact (April 11th, 2024) – Monsters Ballz

Is this the go-home show for TNA’s Rebellion PPV? Or is it a total one-match show where everything is just padding before the tremendous Monsters Ball match between PCO and Kon? Has anyone considered renaming Kon to Khan or is that a little on the nose?

Honestly, I’ve got little to say about this show other than it was mostly furthering storylines and builds toward the upcoming PPV. I liked the opening bit with Josh, Hammerstone, and Dreamer, who was bound to get beat up because we’re in the old ECW Arena and there’s a mandate somewhere that Tommy Dreamer MUST ABSOLUTELY GET KILLED in this arena… clearly, Hammerstone didn’t get the memo because he merely beat up Dreamer a bit and let him live.

Speaking of things getting killed, that Monsters Ball match sure was a spectacle. Was it a great match by any means? Probably not, but tabarnac, it was fun, sti. Any chance I get to see PCO let loose and be an absolute beast of a monster is one I will cherish every single goddamned time and I sure wasn’t disappointed here.

That’s all I’ve got for this week. See you all next time, I guess.

DTM-Cast – Episode #246

Click here to download the MP3.

On this day eleven years ago, the first episode of the DTM-Cast was uploaded in which we pissed and moaned about that year’s Wrestlemania featuring THE ROCK. Eleven years later, we talk about another Wrestlemania featuring THE ROCK, although there’s actually a lot less to talk about than I was hoping for. So there’s also some talk about the new GodzillaXKong movie as well as a quick Q&A segment.
