TNA: iMPACT!
November 19, 2005
Orlando, FL
Universal Studios
The current NWA champs are as follows:
NWA World Champion: Jeff Jarrett (11/3/2005)
NWA World Tag Team Champions: America’s Most Wanted (10/22/2005)
TNA X-Division Champion: AJ Styles (9/11/2005)
Footage of last Sunday night’s Genesis PPV is shown. CHRISTIAN CAGE DEBUTED. Abyss and Sabu battled with barbed wire. Kip James dressed in totally inappropriate Shawn Michaels referee gear called the 3LK/Team Canada fair and square. Samoa Joe ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED Christopher Daniels after the Elimination X match – blood and everything as AJ Styles watched on. Plus, Christian Cage totally duped Team Canada and helped Team 3D defeat Planet Jarrett with a 3D through a table on Jarrett. If I get a copy of that show, I’ll be glad to do a recap because it’s a GREAT PPV if I remember correctly.
Your hosts are Mike Tenay and Don West.

Orlando, FL
Universal Studios
The current NWA & TNA Champs were as follows:
NWA World Champion: Rhino (10/23/2005)
NWA World Tag Team Champions: America’s Most Wanted (10/22/2005)
TNA X-Division Champion: AJ Styles (9/11/2005)
This is the first two-hour primetime (baby!) special on Spike TV for TNA. Today, it’s commonplace, but not back then when iMPACT! was only one hour a week.
AWESOME video package to start things. They show some cool moves from the past, some familiar faces that wrestling fans may have missed, and an overall feeling of testosterone-filled intensity. I’m loving it already. Even with the Don West voiceovers!
Your hosts are Mike Tenay and Don West.

ECW: Unreleased Vol. 2
ECW: Unreleased Vol. 2
Released: July 30, 2013
This review is for the 3-disc DVD version, not the 2-disc blu-ray that contains some extra matches.
Joey Styles and Tommy Dreamer are your hosts. They show up every three matches or so, and they basically put people over and don’t take anything too seriously. There are some bits of footage here and there while they talk, which adds a nice touch. Also, many of these matches are proceeded by the full promos that went along with them when they originally aired, so that’s cool too. Read the rest of this entry

NWA World Tag Team Champions: America’s Most Wanted (10/22/2005)
TNA X-Division Champion: AJ Styles (9/11/2005)
Why are they showing the voiceover guy in the intro? They don’t do that in movie trailers. It just takes away so much of his mystique. I mean, you don’t see James Earl Jones in Star Wars.
