Man In Black · Anime Mod

Kong vs Gail vs ODB added to the PPV.

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

Another match announced after the latest iMPACT! tapings:

- Shark Boy announced that he and Curry Man will face Team 3D in a Fish Market Street Fight at Destination X. If Team 3D don't make weight or lose the match they are gone from TNA.

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

Latest news from TNA land...

- TNA is said to be treating Destination X as a throw away PPV. They are more intrested in building to Lockdown which is one of their big three events along with Slammiversary and Bound for Glory.

- Speaking of Lockdown, the theme for the event will be "Nothing To Lose" by "Operator".

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Probably because Destination X has traditionally been the worst PPV of the year for TNA and they've already said that Joe vs Angle will headline Lockdown with the stip that if Joe loses he'll quit TNA....

This PPV is on Sunday BTW.....

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

This is the complete card but this is how it looks currently according to TNA online it seems 3 more matches will be announced on iMpact! this week so we will have to get a spoiler report to complete the card and do our predictions...

* Samoa Joe, Cage & Nash v. The Angle Alliance
* Rhino v. Storm (Elevation X)
* Roode v. Booker T
* Lethal v. Williams
* Awesome Kong v. Kim v. ODB

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Roode (w/ Banks) vs Booker (w/ Traci) is a strap match and whoever wins, their second gets to give the other second 10 lashes.

Add Curry Man & Shark Boy vs Team 3D in a "Fish Market" street fight but if Team 3D don't make the weight they are fired...or something.

Rellik & Black Reign vs Kaz & Eric Young is added too.

Finally, in the main event, the babyfaces gets a 3 on 2 advantage for the first 5 minutes.

This PPV is gong to suck...

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

And the change there is.....? FIRE CREATIVE TNA!!! NOW!!

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Add LAX vs MCMG vs Rock & Rave Infection in a No1 contender match

Totoro101 · Movie Executive Producer

This card sounds pretty odd...Will be watching the womens match on You tube as i usually do as i tend to avoid most of TNA which every week seems to be getting crazier and crazier.

LAX vs. The Motor City Machineguns vs. The Rock N' Rave Infection

A fish market is a market where they sell fresh fish - you must have seen them DM?

-- Edited by Man In Black at 17:45, 2008-03-07

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

I understand what it is Im just wondering why they are having a street fight in there... What they gonna do slap each other with fish and instead of the claw finidsher use a squid?

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Well - assuming you've not been watching TNA lately - Shark Boy's new gimmick is ripping off Stone Cold but with "fish" puns like "Whoop your Bass" and "That's the fishing line" and drinking clam juice. So, it's a regular street fight but nicknamed a fish market.

No doubt Russo will have some fish incorporated in the match though...
