TNA No Surrender Preview
September 9, 2011
This Sunday TNA presents No Surrender. There are some good matches on this card an it has been build up well. TNA has actually been doing a decent job of building up it's Pay-Per-Views the last few times. Let's get to the card...
- Mickie James vs Winter. For the Knockout's title.: I'm not too excited about this match, but the story has been built up. I didn't really like Winter losing the title so soon after she won it, but her win on Impact did give her back some credibility. I'm not sure where the story is really going, so I can't really predict a winner on this one.
- Bully Ray vs James Storm. BFG Series semi-final.: The BFG series has gone over pretty well in my opinion. It has created some buzz and interest in TNA. I like both guys in this match and I feel like Bully Ray may be doing the best work of his career right now. I'm not positive who is going to win. I think Ray has what it takes to be a top guy, but I could also see TNA setting up a match in the finals between the members of Beer Money which ends up splitting them.
- Bobby Roode vs Gunner. BFG Series semi-final.: This should be another decent match. Gunner has something but I still think it's way too early for him to be in the position he is in. I'm actually surprised he is already such a big name in TNA, while his former partner is nowhere to be found. I think Bobby Roode should take this match, but Gunner has had some surprising victories in this BFG Series.
- Mexican America vs Devon and the Pope. For the Tag Team titles.: I think this is by far the worst match on the card. I'm usually not a huge fan of matches made during the show right before the Pay-Per-View. There is little buildup and no real reason to get excited. In addition, I find Mexican America to be two of the most annoying guys in wrestling right now, especially Anarquia. Also, wasn't Devon injured by Samoa Joe only a few weeks ago? For an injury that eliminated him from the BFG series, he returned pretty quickly and he seemingly has no beef with Samoa Joe. I think British Invasion was the way to go with this match. Unfortunately, I think Mexican America will hold onto the titles.
- Matt Morgan vs Samoa Joe.: This should be a decent match. I like both guys and the story has had some nice buildup. TNA did a good job of keeping Matt Morgan relevant throughout his injury. Based on Joe's current losing streak and Morgan's return, I wouldn't be surprised if Morgan wins this.
- Brian Kendrick vs Austin Aries. For the X Division title.: This should be a really exciting match. TNA is finally starting to give more attention to the X Division and I think it should get even more attention. I truly feel the X Division brought TNA to the point where they could draw in some big names, and it makes TNA stand out. Both of these guys are good in the ring, and I love that they are pretty much polar opposites in terms of personality. Aries dresses nice and is all about money, while Kendrick doesn't wear shoes and is all about energy. I can see Aries stealing the title in this one, which would help the story develop more.
- Kurt Angle vs Sting vs Mr. Anderson. For the World title.: All three guys are legit main eventers, so this match has major star power. Each guy can also really bring it in the ring, so the match probably won't be crap. The ending will likely be screwy, which will probably leave a bad taste in people's mouths however. I'm guessing Immortal either gets a new member, or Jeff hardy screws Angle out of the title.
Overall, this should be a good show, mainly because I think most of the outcomes are hard to predict. One thing that confuses me is the BFG Series finals. Are they happening as well on Sunday, or at a later date? I was kind of unclear on that. Also, what is in store for Jeff Hardy on Sunday. Watch TNA's No Surrender to find out. Until next time...
