Kurt Angle - X Division Champion.

TNA is really going all out to make sure that nobody cares about their championships. It was one thing when the Dudleyz were champs, or another when there was a possibility of the Steiners having them...but one guy? Lame. Really fucking lame.

Are they running a schtick where one of the two will hold all three of the TNA titles by himself?

Doesn't that also mean someone is going to have to job three titles in relatively quick succession because TNA needs to hotshot them?

Perhaps there will be some massive gimmick match. A...reverse ultimate elevation x match held inside the six sides of steel covered in barbwire...mud wrestling match.

I bet So Cal Val winds up TNA champ.

I'd LOVE to see the TNA fans try and justify this clusterfuck stipulation. If I were one of the wrestlers on TNA who aren't Angle or Joe, I'd be pretty upset with that company right now.

If there is one bright side, Joe might end up champ. If Angle wins, there's no way to justify this bullshit.

I hope Joe wins, doesn't extend his contract, and goes back to ROH, screwing them over.

If Angle wins, that's the nail in the coffin for Joe going back to ROH. If TNA didn't have their head up their ass, they'd book Joe to win this, hopefully enticing him to stay in TNA.

I'm not even sure if a title reign is enough to satisfy Joe at this point. I mean, he was chugging along just fine until they got Angle and completely screwed him over. TNA just bought into all the internet hype about Your Olympic Hero, and thought that pushing him above and beyond everyone else would get them mainstream credibility. Needless to say, they were wrong and it may cost them one of the brightest stars they have.

Kurt Angle is just 18 german suplexs, 3 Angle slams, and an ankle lock away from total victory. YEAH!!!!

Where's the "I got PWNED by Kurt Angle" thread? This would be a massive entry.

If Kurt wins, they'll go off on how TNA is pushing him right and WWE was holding him back.

If Joe wins, they'll go off on how Joe is better than UMAGA~!~! and TNA is trying to create stars unlike WWE.

Joe winning this will mean less than if he'd just won the big last year. In fact, it'll be worthless.

The only thing that would make it worse would be a Hogan run in.

I'd mark for a Hogan run in. It'd be hilarious.

A reenactment of the ending of Wrestlemania 9 would be even better. Especially if Mr Fuji inexplicably joined up with Kurt Angle.

That'd make TNA incredibly cool. Fuji? I'd mark out so hard...

And considering Kurt's history of hooking up with evil un-American guys for no explicit reason...this NEEDS to happen.

Apparently this overgimmicked shit worked--Impact scored a 1.17, its third-highest rating ever.

I bet they didn't even break 40k for the PPV though.

I have all the TNA PPV figures from Victory Road 2004 and Lockdown 2006, except for the period where TNA went dark in 2005. I also know that Genesis 2006 got 30k, and Turning Point 2006 got 25k.

Joe better kick Krazy Kurt's ass. Afterwards, Angle should just freakin' rest, or we'll see him on the wrestler death list soon.
