That Black Hole Slam thing was pretty damned sick, I agree. The ring action in TNA has ratcheted back up lately, it seems. That match with AJ and what's his cock was outstanding, IMO, and without too much ridiculous highspots. The blocked Tornado DDT countered into a suplex was pure majesty.
They're gonna fuck around and turn me back into a mark if they're not careful. Seriously, TNA has been kicking ass lately. I say it's time for a second weekly show. Start the petition!

Haven't been able to catch all of the latest show yet. Saw the end of the AJ Styles vs Chris Sabin match though and I know what you mean about that Tornado DDT counter. That was beautiful.
I'm a little disappointed that the No Surrender Main Event is going to be just like the Hard Justice main event but with AJ added. Sure that'll make it better but something a bit further off from the last one would have been nice.
I think it's a pretty interesting story. Obviously Matt Morgan's gonna try to take the belt off Kurt, but that probably means that it's gonna turn out to have been a swerve on us all, this whole time. It'll turn out that Matt helps Kurt win, and it'll be a big MEM celebration. Of course, it could also end up a last hurrah for Sting, or a chance for the Crow ripoff to bow out gracefully and hand off the torch to AJ, putting him in the top tier once and for all.

Why!? Why!? Why!?
They just had to fuck up LAX didn't they. I'm all for World Elite getting stronger but not like that. Now we're just going to get another crappy ex-tag team partners feud.
They really did rush the whole thing with AJ, didn't they? A couple weeks ago he was randomly quitting without much explanation, then Sting gave him a little pep talk, which somehow magically turned him into Billy Badass, and in no time at all, he's the world champ? That's pretty fucking cheap in my book.
Why they even have that Feast Or Fired nonsense is beyond me. It's so convoluted and ill-defined anyway. Especially if they have it end like that, I just don't see the point to rip off Money In The Bank.
I think that's a pretty weak way to start off the women's tag team championship. They shoulda made a team of Daffney and Hamada, now that's a belt-worthy duo. Hell, they even coulda brought in Daffney's indie teammate, MsChif. I've read some things about that gal and been wanting to see if she's worthy of the hype. Or it could just be that I think Daffney is awesome.

MsChif's currently ROH's Shimmer Champion so she's probably not really avaliable.
I like Taylor Wilde and Sarita. They're both great womens wrestlers, Sarita especially and they make a good team. I don't think ODB's title reign will be long. I'm expecting Kong to make it three time so having face champions and a heel champion is cool too.

Ok, seriously? The Bound For Glory main event is Sting challenging for the World Heavyweight Title for the FOURTH fucking year in a row! For fucks sake, think of something new!
