WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (July 20)

3. Dixie Closes The Show

Just about a month ago, the TNA product was absolutely awful. Perhaps the worst it had ever been. From an entertainment standpoint, MVP vs. Dixie Carter made El Torito vs. Hornswoggle look like Steve Austin vs. Bret Hart. Watching Impact made you want to quit watching wrestling, and perhaps sell your TV. Somehow, three of the past four weeks of Impact been fairly decent, to dare I say, pretty good. This is no time to celebrate, though. Even a broken clock is right twice a day, and apparently even TNA can put on a non-embarrassingly awful show on occasion. This is most likely by accident. It will take months more, or more likely, years to clean off the stink on the overall product, just to convince fans to give them another shot. Thursday€™s Impact was actually a refreshing step in the right direction. We had a solid amount of wrestling, and a delightful lack of Dixie...until the end of the show! The main event had Jeff Hardy and Bobby Lashley in a surprisingly good match. Hardy took some sick bumps, and Lashley showed that perhaps he is capable of expressing human emotions. Despite the match being perhaps the biggest one the company can provide right now, it wasn€™t as important as what Dixie was up to. The message they€™re sending is that the owner, and all her meandering, and somehow vomit inducing storylines, are simply bigger than the TNA title. That€™s not good for anyone except for Dixie. It doesn€™t matter what you do in the ring, if the boss wants to talk for 15 minutes, then that€™s what she€™s going to do. It may be Dixieland in TNA, but she shouldn€™t be too surprised if Spike TV are tired of that amusement park and shut it down when their contract runs up soon.
