People losing on the way up is fine, but if they've already debuted they're 3x more powerful than NXT guys so they can't lose there.

I love how they sometimes have the champions give up the belt to get called up. Knowing that they're going to lose the belts because of a call up really sucks the drama out of matches.

The ECW stuff is SO TIRED at this point. And the Disco stuff is just the worst poo poo ever. Tessa goes from a great match with Gail to THIS. I gotta admit though. Elgin vs Swann was REALLY REALLY good. It went 20 mins, had a ton of cool spots, near falls and the crowd was into it.

TNA Xplosion: Dezmond Xavier defeats Jake Crist Su Yung defeats Alisha Edwards Tessa Blanchard squashes Disco Inferno in under a minute Moose and The North ridicule ECW. Moose and Callis have words The Deaners defeat Desi Hit Squad Eddie Edwards defeats Killer Kross in a no DQ match after The Sandman interferes Willie Mack and Rich Swann defeat Johnny Impact and Michael Elgin after Elgin abandons Johnny Rosemary (with chained Su Yung) vs Taya Valkyrie ends in no contest after Jessicka Havok (with James Mitchell) attacks Rosemary and Taya. The two leave with Su Yung Madman Fulton (with Sami Callihan) wins a handicap match against two local geeks OVE defeat Fallah Bahh and Scarlett Bordeaux. Post-match Tessa Blanchard saves Scarlett from a double-team Jordynne Grace defeats Kiera Hogan LAX retain the tag titles over the Rascalz via DQ after ref bump. Second ref came in and counted a Rascalz pin but was overruled by the first ref Ace Austin defeats Cousin Jake after interference from Desi Hit Squad RVD, Sabu and Tommy Dreamer defeat Moose and The North. Tapings end with big motivational speech from Dreamer; the Philly arena's the house that Sabu built, RVD's still going after 100 concussions, and Impact's like ECW (he got that part right)

They just didn't renew her contract. She probably would have stayed if offered. The IMPACT Knockout roster IS good. It's just the booking that is poo poo. At least its not as bad as Women of Honor.

Knockout has good wrestlers booked in bizarre borderline fetish angles (Su Yung on a chain, men beating up women, the whole Scarlett gimmick which is male-gaze as gently caress no matter how much you wanna spin it as ironic or her controlling her agency or whatever). WOH has bad wrestlers booked in ... pretty much the same Knockout angles from a decade ago. And also men beating up women. I hope Brandi has some good ideas for the AEW women because the other US promotions don't seem to have much interest in taking them seriously again.

I'll say this. Scarlett's work in IMPACT has made me a fan, and not just because of her looks. She is genuinely interesting and the pairing of her and Fallah Bahh is actually really enjoyable. Her wrestling ability has greatly improved in the last year or so. As bad as the Disco stuff was, Tessa is now the most over female babyface. She probably could have been that anyway, but at least the crowd really popped for her kicking Disco's rear end. And as much as I dislike Michael Elgin, he easily had the 2 best matches of the tapings this weekend. Dude is a poo poo human being, but a great wrestler.

Scarlett's shtick is absolutely fine so long as the rest of the women in whatever group she's working for are largely presented as serious athletes or brawlers or just a diverse group of characters in general. The issue isn't having characters like her so much as for decades that character was the ONLY one women could play in wrestling.

I assumed they were maybe going to keep him off TV until the KSA show (LOL, WWE having patience) but I suppose the panic over the ratings might have changed their mind.

NXT is way different than it was in Takeover I day but I appreciate that they’re returning to that Cesaro / Titus “make a lower card guy from another brand seem like a big deal” thing. Even though they’re clearly there to job, which was not the case during Sami Zayn’s losing streak gimmick. Somebody (Regal?) really appreciates Gulack as a hand. Wild that NXT booking was so airtight they made a losing streak face gimmick work
