The Best Of The Best
|
According to the TNA website itself, this is a 2 disc DVD set featuring the best of TNA throughout 2007 featuring comments on certain moments & showcasing their top superstars of the year. Along with all of this are all the matches that were "Match Of The Year" candidates.
TNA Champion Kurt Angle vs. Sting - Before the match, the reception Sting got in the town that made him famous (Atlanta...home of WCW/NWA) was one of the biggest pops I've heard in recent memory. The match started off slow but went into a good match between these two with Kurt pulling off an sick looking & impressive 450 off the top rope into a kneedrop at one point. Both Karen Angle & Kevin Nash (but you knew that was coming based off the skits all night) got involved in the end but it didn't take away the match between these two as Sting won & once again walked away from Bound For Glory as a champion.
(Bound For Glory)
Ultimate X Match: LAX vs. XXX - This was an awesome opener as the Ultimate X match usually always delievers when it comes to crazy spots. Moments to look out for were Elix Skipper doing a cross bodyblock off the top of the structure onto Hernandez, Skipper getting a neckbreaker from the top of the ropes, and Senshi doing the "Warriors Way" double stomp onto Hernandez who was hanging from the tree of woe at that time. Great opener.
(Bound For Glory)
TNA Champion Kurt Angle vs. Rhino vs. Christian Cage - "One match, one title" was the theme of this match took up the entire show (which was one hour back then) to set up who would be the TNA Champion for the "Match Of Champions" at Victory Road. Due to this match taking up the entire episode, they had various things happen to fill in their other storylines such as Samoa Joe attacking Kurt Angle before the match started, both Abyss & Chris Harris coming after Christian Cage later in the bout along with cameos from Sting, A.J. Styles, Tomko, and James Storm as well. Both Christian & Angle targeted Rhino in the beginning before Cage & Angle tried to out heel each other by working together then trying to get the cheap shot. Towards the end of the bout, Cage was taken out of the match leaving the around the last 5 mins. between Angle & Rhino. The main event was PPV quality & in fact, was better than some of the PPV main events they had in the year. It was a good wrestling match in the ring along with an out of control brawl with everyone else showing up during the match outside the ring.
(Impact)
30 Min. Ironman Match: Kurt Angle vs. Samoa Joe - What else can I say here, this was a wrestling clinic from start to finish. This is just one of those matches I feel like I can't describe in words as they just put on one of the best "wrestling" matches in TNA.
(Final Resolution)
Elevation X: Rhino vs. AJ Styles - Usually, scaffold matches are just people punching & kicking each other back & forth on a small platform while the fans are just waiting for someone to fall off. However, this one was unique in that they pulled off some moves that you wouldn't expect like Rhino goring AJ or Styles climbing inside the steel structure under the platforms. This is one of the very few scaffold matches where the match on the scaffold itself wasn't boring & had you just waiting for someone to drop.
(Destination X)
NWA Champion Christian Cage vs. Samoa Joe - With the exception of the Kurt Angle series, Joe's first World Title match saw him & Christian deliver the wrestling clinic that we haven't seen since his X division days. Back & forth action, counter for counter, plenty of nearfalls, and really just kept you on the edge of your set with the ending having you begging for a rematch.
(Destination X)
Texas Death Match: Chris Harris vs. James Storm - Their first match at Lockdown was one of the worst matches this year...but after this one, you'll forget that match happened because this heavily made up for it & more. This was under old school Death Match rules where you had to score a pinfall & the loser has a 10 count to get to his feet or lose. They started brawling in the crowd right from the start and went back into the ring with both men heavily bleeding throughout the match & taking some punishment like both men going through tables, being hit with their finishing moves, dueling trash can lips, and even Jackie Moore & Gail Kim getting involved. The fans described this match perfectly..."This Is Awesome."
(Sacrifice)
King Of The Mountain for the TNA Championship: Kurt Angle vs. Samoa Joe vs. Chris Harris vs. A.J. Styles vs. Christian Cage - For those new to TNA, the King Of The Mountain match is a ladder match in reverse with alot of stipulations. To win the match, you have to use the ladder hang the belt instead of using the ladder to pull it down like a normal ladder match. However before you can hang the belt, you have to qualify to do it by scoring a pinfall/submission over one of the other competitors...and the person who loses that fall goes into a penality box for 2 mins. Yeah, sounds real gimmicky but when you watch it come together...it's a real easy match to follow. Just like all of their multiman matches, this was just a wild brawl all over the place between all 5 men. The props at ringside come into play various times like Christian getting "crotched" between one of the steps of the ladder, A.J. Styles being tossed over the top rope onto Christian...who was laying down on the ladder at the time, and Styles being thrown off the top of the penality box through the announcers table (Mick Foley would be proud). In the end, Kurt Angle becomes the first TNA Champion.
(Slammiversary)
Winner Takes All: TNA & "IWGP" Champion Kurt Angle vs. X Division & Tag Team Champion Samoa Joe - The story thoughout the whole match was Karen Angle & her new man (who was Trademarc, John Cena's cousin & the other guy off the "You Can't See Me" album) being a distraction for Angle thoughout the match...even during the entrance where he dropped one of his titles & looked like a defeated man. Joe & Angle delievered the match of the match night as they must put on wrestling clinics in the ring with this time having some comedic spots like Joe pulling down Angle's trunks. Again, match of the night for this PPV (but the weakest out of their TNA matches) here with an ending that resulted in Karen Angle becoming a full time character in TNA.
(Hard Justice)
Ladder Match: Kaz vs. Christian Cage - You can quote me here...this was the best Ladder Match I've seen in TNA. We know what Christian Cage can do based on his WWE past but what Kaz was pulling off in this match as well made this the match of the night at Genesis. There were alot of moves done that were unbelievable such as Christian's frog splash onto the ladder from the top rope and the ladder doesn't give...which happened in the first five minutes. Another moment to look out for wasKaz missing a legdrop drop the top of the ladder onto another ladder. I don't want to give away everything that happened in the match but this was the match of the night & the best in Kaz's career since his return (and maybe even before as well) in TNA while Christian Cage gave a showstealing performance..no questions asked.
(Genesis)
X Division Champion Kurt Angle vs. "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal - This match was TNA's version of the "Little Engine That Could" since Lethal was heavily put over as the major underdog who didn't have a chance in hell with even Lethal looking shocked at some of the moves he got in on Angle like the Lethal combination. However, both men put on the type of performance that makes a star overnight as you saw the audience get into the match more as time went on while Angle helped Lethal not only look like a million bucks...but losing CLEANLY after a roll up. The biggest upset in TNA history.
(No Surrender)
Tables Match: Team 3D vs. The Steiner Brothers - This was a straight out brawl between these two & concidering how dull their "wrestling" match was back at Hard Justice, that's a good thing. They mostly brawled on the floor in the beginning before settling it into the ring. The Motor City Machine Guns interfered in the end but if you watched Impact, you would know why they did. Overall a good brawl & tons better than their previous encounter.
(Bound For Glory)
This is set up to be one of TNA's best DVD's yet as far as match quality that I would recommend picking up. |
