Here's the video of the TNA Knockouts Title match from Sunday's Sacrifice PPV. Angelina Love successfully defended her title over Awesome Kong with some obvious skullduggery. Fan reviews have been mostly negative. I thought the match was fine within the context of the angle but it probably belonged on an episode of Impact instead of the PPV. Both major wrestling companies tend to book run of the mill women's matches on PPV and this wasn't any different. Angelina Love has really stepped up to become a main event performer. Her promo on last week's Impact was hilarious and really did a great job of setting up this match. Obviously they should have given them more time on the PPV but they performed well within those limitations. Angelina running from Kong is part of the angle and it's acceptable heel behaviour. But fans don't like that on a PPV match. So I'm OK with the match but it should have been longer. Most fans probably know by now that TNA has signed Lisa Marie Varon and she will debut on this week's Impact. We all know how great she was as Victoria in the WWE and with Sarita (Sarah Stock) and Ayako Hamada coming to TNA soon, things are looking up in the Knockouts division. BTW, I didn't watch the Monster's Ball match between Daffney and Taylor Wilde. It doesn't interest me. But enjoy this match.
I have avoided TNA for several months, but watched this clip and caught up on Youtube on Angelina's recent antics. The match was OK, nothing special, but Angelina is awesome at the stuck-up bitch/cowardly heel combination.
ReplyDeleteOh, I ran across a blurb about an Ito Dojo fan event on June 14th that's billed as her last appearance of the year before her "expedition" to TNA. So I think late June/early July will be when the Ayako comes on.
