It's been over
a month since the Weekly Insider has been updated, and I had stated that the site would no longer be updated. However, I never
dedicated the Insider in it's last edition, so this will be it.
Many TNA legends have returned,
such as Cocky Johnson, TRO and DE, among other new up and comers, mostly from XWC. The roster for TNA is getting up there
and it’s great to have them here. Sadly there will be a few leaving c-fed wrestling, among them, Mahagee, and TNA vetran Invisible
who will have his last match at TNA Forum Mania III. Also, head booker NM has stated he will be stepping down from position
and a member from the booking team will be taking over.
Inside moment: There are
always problems in TNA and with some of the egos in TNA, there are going to be encounter. Recently Johnny Vegas was on his
way to the parking garage when he encountered Cocky Johnson. JV, being the thug he is grabbed CJ’s wallet for a rib
at the big star. CJ took offense and bitch slapped JV across the face but before anything could esculate, security broke it
up. Paul had these strange words to say about the incident “JV’s my man, and the Cock got no right to be cock
slapping my ho”, and that was it.
Anyway back to the news;
Lots of changes happening in TNA, with the XWC Invasion, gaining of superstars, loss of superstars and changing of bookers,
but in time change is eminent. We must embrace the future of TNA and acknowledge it’s roots. Forum Mania III will be
apart of the transition in TNA, and for the rest of the Insider, I decided we’d take a look at the card.
Just week(s) before Forum
Mania III and the expectations for this event awe. This ppv is expected to be the highest grossing ppv of all time, especially
if you consider the ratings TNA has been receiving over the past coupe months.
The card for
Forum Mania III is amazing, with the following matches on the card:
J Vegas vs Paul Carrigan
in a rematch for the VBX title:
Will Paul reclaim
the championship and become a 5 time champion, or does JV still have what it takes to be the VBX champion. With FTW on Paul’s
side and D-Flex on JV’s, it might be more than just a singles match.
Intercontinental
Championship: FATAL 4-WAY: Zack Morris vs. James Steele vs. A.C. Slater vs. Danny Electric (c)
Danny E is in
a predicament where anyone of these 3 other guys can
score the pinfall
on anyone, and he doesn't have to be pinned to lose the title. Just like his first fatal 4-way where he won the IC title a
year ago, this match will certainly be unpredictable.
Tag Team Championships:
Legend Killer/The Answer vs. Thunder/El Satan (c):
A rising tag team in Team
XWC and multi time tag champs, El Satan and Thunder will put their titles on the plate other former tag champs, LK and The
Answer. The tag team division has been heating up over the past couple months and it will continue.
#1 Contendership:
The Ravishing One vs. The Dude
TRO returns at Forum Mania
III, where he won the and became the first world championship at the premiere (Forum Mania I) and now he’s come back
for glory. After much demand, TRO received a World Title opportunity, if he defeats the commish of TNA, The Dude.
'The Battle for Hollywood': "Action" Jack
Icon vs. Cocky Johnson
Both of these guys are known
for their movie roles and professional c-fed career, and they certainly are a couple of the most charismatic men in TNA. But
at Forum Mania III, the two egos clash when Jack Icon goes one on one with former multi time TNA world champ, The Cock.
'Fond Farewell':
Invisible vs. MadMan
The most heated rivalry going
on, where both these men have basically attempted murder on one another, and are at each other’s throats. Invisible
may have stepped in the way of Madman’s dreams but the Madman has sworn revenge, and has got more than his share. Invisible
will try to settle the score in his c-fed retirement match, but Madman may just be too much of a force.
'Changing of
the Gods': Nowhere Man vs. MVP
NM has been constructing
his own vision of TNA over the period of time he’s been Head booker, and just a couple months ago he revealed the evil
deeds he orchestrated. MVP was a victim of NM’s power and at Forum Mania III, MVP will fight the power
World Heavyweight Championship:
IRON MAN MATCH: Azriel vs. Innovator (c):
Innovator had
worn the TNA championship around his waist for about half a year and it appears that he may just be invinsible. However, since
Azriel secure his #1 contenders spot by winning the Frenzy, he’s sworn to be World Champion. Both men have had their
battles in the past and have come to a mutual respect with one another, but when the World Title is on the line, respect or
not, there will be no mercy.
Well, it’s
time to close the chapter of TNA Insider, but I must say I’ve enjoyed it. I hope you've enjoyed reading the Insider
as much as I've enjoyed publishing it, that is all.
-Farewell.
