HeadLocker — Jay Shannon
The NXT Report for Week Seven

Our resident philosopher, Jay Shannon, runs down all the action and twists and turns in the WWE’s latest experiment, NXT.

WWE pushed NXT closer to the old Tough Enough program by throwing in a boring physical challenge. The Pros got the night off, for the most part, as the Rookie pushed to get more air time and to climb higher in the rankings. Michael Cole continued his irritating habit of constantly dissing Daniel Bryan. Danny needs to slap the Cattle Mutilation on Mr. JR-Wanna-Be.

Matt Striker brought out all eight of the Rookies, by their rankins, 8 to 1. Striker mentioned that whoever came in first would get the title shot of his choice against the champion of his choice at a live Pay-per-view. Striker talked with David Otunga about walking away from the tag team titles, on Monday. Otunga said he was the Guest Host and he could do what he wanted. Otunga said he could have taken the tag but Otunga doesn’t share the spotlight with anyone. Otunga said he did Miz a favor by handing the win to an NXT Pro. Striker then asked Daniel Bryan if he felt he should be number one. Daniel got shots in on Miz, Otunga and Michael Cole. Cole started again with his little shots on Daniel Bryan. Striker asked Michael Tarver if he felt Daniel deserved to be number one.

The Katz Files – Arnie Katz
My Weekly (4/5) TNA Notebook

The Kingfish Arnie Katz provides insight and analysis based on the 4/5 episode of iMPACT.

Bad Night for the Knockouts
If TNA wanted a way to cheapen the Knockout Championship and give the entire division a kick in the head, the company certainly found it with the Eight-Woman Elimination Match.

It took just one show to destroy the Knockout championship and make eight of their best female performers look terrible in a match format that suffered from a lack of advance planning.

The match itself was a mess. It didn’t make any sense to have eight women in the ring and two of them wrestle while the others stood around. This would have worked much better as a series of four singles matches, evenly spaced through the two-hour show.

He was called up the morning of the show to replace a pummeled and broken Mikey Pacifica, who was literally annhilated by Danny Demanto and Kevin Matthews the night before in his match with Balls Mahoney against The Commandos. Pacifica himself was scheduled to replace the once-again-retired Vicious Vinny in the tournament, and this final roster change to replace him brought in Philadelphia’s own Devon Moore, an accomplished Northeast wrestling star in his own right who, with a partner with more victories in WSU than anyone else in the tournament, and the winner of the 2010 J-Cup Women’s Tournament the previous night, Alicia, ended up as the 2010 King And Queen Of The Ring Tournament winners on Saturday night April 3rd, as National Wrestling Superstars and sister promotion Women Superstars Uncensored concluded their two-promotion two-show weekend with this annual classic, which drew an enthusiastic and energetic throng of fans to Kearny, NJ’s Presbyterian Boys & Girls Club.
