7 Ups & 3 Downs From Impact Wrestling (Nov 19)

1. Where's The Intensity?

If you recall back to last week, Johnny Swinger decided to defecate in the bag of Ken Shamrock, something no sane person would ever want to do. So why on earth would he think it's a good idea to then saunter out to ringside just seven days after? Surely you'd want to go into hibernation to ensure Shamrock doesn't unload on you.

Swinger had other plans in mind though, as he defeated enhancement talent Buck Gunderson with his swinging neckbreaker. Unfortunately for him, Shamrock would emerge from backstage, and downed Swinger, only to nail him with some of the weakest punches he's ever dished out.

The commentary team didn't exactly help here, with Josh Mathews exclaiming that Shamrock was lighting up his adversary, despite the fact that the former NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion was barely making contact with Johnny's face. Thankfully, the Ankle Lock would be cinched in as much as it possibly could be, but those punches seriously need some work.
