By David Spalding Overall ok show, heard a lot of great things about tna house shows,don't live up to the hype but still an ok show. Why they would run in an 18,00 seat arena when they know there would be no way in hell they could draw over 2,000 fans is beyond me. They are runing Glens Falls civic center next month which makes a lot more sense, only a 4,000 seat areana Plan on going to that fine show as well. Jay lethal over Sonjay Dutt in the opener. Lethal wins after the macho man elbow off the top rope at 6:30,crowd loved lethal Awesome Kong and Miss Jackie over Tracie Brooks and Roxxi at 6:23 when Kong pinned Iraci after the awesome bomb Eric Young over Johnny Devine at 10:45. During the match Earl Hebner does a flair strut. This leads to young taking off and wearing the ref shirt for a bit as Devine and Hebner go at it for a bit which leads to a double hip toss on devine from young and hebner. Later in the match young goes under the ring and comes out in the full super eric get up (You could see this coming a mile away in the start as young came to the ring in the bottom half of the super eric costume)Crowd loves young though. Rhino over Abyss in a no-dqmatch at 12;00 after a second gore. Really fun match they brawled outside of the ring and came over near my section and hit eachother with garbage cans all types of weapons which was cool. Abyss is huge. 15 min intermission X title match Petty Williams ove Creedwith after the can. destroyer at 7;25, not as good as their hard justice match but alright.Creed got booed again in this one,his gimmick needs to go. Beer money inc over Team 3d in a tag title match at 15:45 3D worked as baby faces which was weird. both teams did some pre match mic work, Bubba made same 2005 lame gay jokes about Beer money and after the match kissed the fans asses and started a tna chant. main event world title match Smaoa Joe over Booker T,Christian Cage And Kurt angle in 12:52 this was an elimantion match Joe pinned booker first with a power slam,then pinned christin after a diamond cutter. Joe and angle went at it for a bit, fun match with some good nears falls Joe wins with the muscle buster. Another 15 mins and some more near falls and this would have been great. But probably better than it well be on ppv next week as thier was no ref bumps of run ins.Angle cut a babyface promo after the match thanking the fans for coming out to the show etc.Why don't they have Joe do this? Anyways angle stays and takes pics with the fans after the show for 20 bux a pop. Kinda felt bad for Angle, he won the wwe title for the first time in this building in oct 2000 in front of a sold out crowd. {plug}
