TNA Impact wrestling 4/18/2013 Results and Review

Last week's show is here: http://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2013/04/tna-impact-wrestling-4112013-results.html

Welcome to my review of TNA Impact Wrestling for April 18, 2013. Today we have AJ Styles vs James Storm, Kurt Angle vs Wes Brisco and Garrett Bischoff and Mickie James vs Ms Tessmacher in a #1 Contender's Match. We should also get an update on the possible divorce of Brooke Hogan and Bully Ray and an update on whether AJ Styles will choose to side with TNA, Bad Influence or Ace's.

Devon asked if Wes and Garrett were ready. They were confident and said they got it handled. Devon said they need to get the job done right and told them be careful of Kurt Angle.

Kurt Angle vs Wes Brisco and Garrett Bischoff

Garrett Bischoff picked up the win after Ace's interference and a chain shot. The double german was so stupid and broke any believability in this one at all. That spot does not work when the two people on the receiving end are on the same team. That ruined this for me, though it wasn't that great anyway.

Anderson warned everyone to watch out if they weren't with Ace's. He also wished AJ luck tonight.

They ran a video with the three men in the X Division Match. Petey Williams talked about hitting the Canadian Destroyer. Ion was happy he could beat anyone to win.

X Division Title - Kenny King vs Zema Ion vs Petey Williams

The TNA X-Cam

Kenny King got the win here after Petey had Ion in the Sharpshooter and he stole the pin. The match was spot-fu and was what it was. It was hard to get into it and the referee cam was more of a distraction and was more comedy than actually being useful.

Magnus said he was confused by Ace's. He said the only person who is doing any taking tonight is him when he takes the TV title.

Christy and Brooke were looking at the new Knockouts website.I didn't know Hemme did IT along with announcing.

Brooke then brought in Tessmacher and Mickie. She said she was proud of them. Tess then said she was there for Brooke and hugged her.

Magnus and Devon came out for their match, but Ace's jumped Magnus. They gave him a flapjack on the ramp and Samoa Joe came out for the save.

Joe called Ace's cowards and said he would get revenge against Devon in a match tonight.

They announced that Velvet Sky was injured and she said she felt like her knee was going out.

#1 Contender to the Knockouts title - Mickie James vs Ms Tessmacher

 

Mickie James won with a roll-up. I don't know what the heck this was but it went forever, accomplished nothing and was awful. The focus seemed to be getting as many booty shots as possible. They had them wrestle clean and get nowhere, then do a cat fight with ODB coming in and stopping it at various points.

Bad Influence were near AJ Styles in the back and said that the band was back together. They sang "The three best friends that anyone could have".

Devon confronted Joseph Park and took his phone. He told him to stay out of family business and Bully Ray decked Park. Threy threw Joseph Park in the showers and mocked him for crying.

Mickie James talked about fighting champions and said she hasn't gotten the chance to show who she is. She says she's been overlooked.

James Storm said he tried to handle the AJ situation by talking to him, but now it is time to be an adult and kick his butt. Um, Adults don't handle situations that way.

B.I. came out and said they were close to getting AJ to join them. They had a black and yellow Bad Influence shirt for AJ Styles that they called Rocky Balboa inspired. They then talked about "Churro" Guerrero and "Juan" Hernandez.

Roode and Aries said they were the #1 Contenders. Both teams argued until Chavo and Hernandez cleared out both teams.

A bunch of random people, who have had no real interactions with Ace's(minus Roode) talked about how bad Ace's are.

Matt Morgan was ripping on Hulk Hogan and his various mistakes.


TNA Television Title - Devon vs Samoa Joe

Anderson hit Joe with knucks to get Devon the win. This show sucks.

 Ace's laid out Joe after.

James Storm vs AJ Styles

AJ Styles' new submission

AJ got the win with a new submission hold. I couldn't clearly see it but it was like an extended version of the Fuller Lock with AJ putting his knee into Storm's leg at the end. After the match, Ace's beat up Storm and AJ beat up Bad Influence. The match was okay but not that special.

Bully Ray said no heroes are left after this and said to blame Hogan. Bully Ray said he would call out Hogan next week.

Overall thoughts: The show sucked from top to bottom. I hated this show and I'm glad its over with.
