Quick Impact Review; Special Suspension Coverage

Apologies to TNA fans, this is going to be a quick summary of Impact due to the big story that requires coverage today.

Team Pacman promo.

Angle and Nash skit. Karen is going to suck more people in.

Team 3D vs Motor City Machine Guns no contest
Scott Steiner sees something entertaining is about to happen so he stops it. We get a Steiner beatdown instead.

MCMG make open challenge.

Voodoo Kin Mafia def. Motor City Machine Guns when BG James pinned Chris Sabin
Stupid short match. The return of The One and Only as a finisher? blah

Voodoo Kin then make an open challenge. Leads to a big brawl which we see about 3 seconds of

Cut to Karen Angle being stupid and trying to talk to Samoa Joe. I will sum up all the Karen skits here. She goes to each person, who is competing to become Angle's partner if they win. She, for some reason, tries to convince them to become Angle's partner. WTF?????? That's the point of the match, the 4 minutes spent on these skits could have been used to make the VKM vs MCMG match 5 minutes instead of 1 minute. FUCK TNA.

Sting def. Christian Cage, Samoa Joe, and AJ Styles via submission on AJ Styles.
Sweet match only high point of show.

If they are going to go 2 hours they need to be able to have more than one entertaing thing per show, or they will lose ratings. Fans are more likely to sit through 30 minutes of crap to see one good match than 90 minutes.

The shit has hit the fan.

The WWE has suspended 10 wrestlers and potentially 2 more for using steriods and steroid related drugs without a prescription. They have not reported names, but news organizations have released names of people who have done this. Here is the list as of this writing.

Randy Orton
Edge
Charlie Haas
Booker T
Gregory Helms
Mike Bucci
Santino Marella
John Morrison
William Regal
Mr. Kennedy
Chavo Guerrero
Funaki
Batista
Chris Masters
Umaga
Sylvain Grenier

Note all the details that have been release suggest these infractions happened AFTER the Wellness Policy was put in place.

Now some of them in detail
Randy Orton: He has been a problem outside the ring since they hired him. I happen to like his in ring work. That being said, fire this guy already. He obviously needs some time off to appreciate the opportunity he has been given.

Edge: LIAR!!!

Booker T: Giving those kids someone to look up to, huh? WTF Booker.

Gregory Helms: Was injured, may or not be legitimate, but if it was, he should have gone to a DOCTOR

Santino Marella: Just be glad you don't work for Cornette anymore. (you know I had to get at least one joke in.)

John Morrison: I bet they wished they had pulled the trigger on CM Punk now, huh? I bet he is having a good laugh.

William Regal: Odd, I know some people say there is no particular look for steroid users. While that is true, there is a TYPICAL look for one, as that is kinda the point of using them.

Mr. Kennedy: HUUUUUUUGE LIAR!!!...LIAR!

Chavo: Nothing on record past a few months after Eddie's death, maybe he got smart. If not WTF, Chavo. What is it going to take. You have arguably been impacted by drugs more than anyone else in the business today.

Batista: Duh

Masters: DUH!!!

Umaga: Why?

Sylvain Grenier: No longer employed by WWE, but was when he purchased the drugs.
