Bound For Glory Predictions
Our resident philosopher breaks out the crystal ball, tea leaves and lucky coin to try and predict TNA’s biggest PPV of the year.

If it’s October, then this must be Bound For Glory. TNA is pulling out all the stops with this super-card. Even the pre-show match is far above notmal. I’ll do my best to try and predict where TNA is going on Sunday, and beyond, with this much-anticipated Pay Per View.

The Impact and Global Impact Dual Recaps
Our resident philosopher looks at both the weekly edition of TNA Impact and the Global Impact 2 special

More pieces of the puzzle fell into place for Bound For Glory. TNA brought out the biggest upset in TNA history! Samoa Joe faced Amazing Red for the X-Division title and Kevin Nash defended against Hernandez. Plus, Abyss and Matt Morgan reunited to battle Kurt Angle and Mick Foley. A TNA star came very close to death on this week’s show. Read on.

The show opened with a look back at the bloody attack on Abyss by Mick Foley. Abyss told Mick that he was his hero, but no more. Abyss told Foley that he started in wrestling because of Foley.

The Impact (10/1) Insight
Our resident philosopher examines the chaos that was this week’s TNA Impact.

TNA continued with the bickering between the various factions. A third generation star Iron Clawed her way onto the roster. Also, Kevin Nash went after Dr. Stevie, who attacked him last week. This and much more chaos flowed out of Orlando, this week.

The October TNA Report Card
The Kingfish Arnie Katz files his October report card for the good folks at TNA.

About the Report Cards
Each month, I issue a report card for TNA. I examine and grade the promotion in all the vital areas. I discuss strengths and weaknesses and chart the ups and downs. The grades in parentheses are for the previous report card. The grades in parentheses represent the previous report card.

Talent Pool
TNA has recently experienced a lot of comings and goings. Jeff Jarrett is out, at least for now, and Angelina Love’s work visa problem has taken her off the roster for now.

TNA has signed Bobby Lashley and also added quite a few women to the Knockout Division. The newcomers include Hamada, Sarita and Alissa Flash. The latter still makes appearances as Raisha Saeed, but her future lies beyond the berka.

The most interesting new arrival in TNA is Pope D’Angelo Dinero. His character isn’t much, but he us already embroiled in a hot feud with Suicide.
Grade: B

TNA Impact (9/24) Insight
Our resident philosopher looks at a mediocre edition of Impact

The aftermath of No Surrender was in full force on this week’s episode of TNA. Bobby Lashley made his Impact debut. Also, the tag team scene got seriously Extreme. This was an action-filled two hours of fun and excitement. Let’s get to it.

The show opened with all the excitement from No Surrender. A.J. Styles took the gold from Kurt Angle, thanks to an assist from Sting. ODB finally won the Knockout championship. Samoa Joe dominated Daniels. Taylor Wilde and Sarita became the first Knockout tag team champs. Hernandez cashed in his Feast or Fired case, only to have his dreams shattered by Eric Young.
