TNA is launching an internet service to show the PPV's live to the UK, unfortunately this looks like the PPV's won't be shown for free on Wednesdays on Bravo 2 anymore. The price is said to be £10.50 per PPV or there will be a season pass, or free the next day on BT Vision (but who has that). £10.50 is too much in my opinion for an internet stream in the early hours, if they had made it £5 I would have been tempted to pay to legally watch.

Generation Me (formerly The Young Bucks) vs MCMG on iMPACT! just now was great, 2 very talented (and bloody fast) teams.

This week I received my ticket for the TNA show at Manchester Evening News Arena on Friday 29th January, should be a great show.

TNA house show attendance is up since Hogan's appearance, as are merchandise sales at live events. iMPACT! in America this week received a 1.3 cable rating.

Looking forward to it too mate.

Hey what's the score with Lashley though?! I.e. I got the impression on the 4th January Impact that he'd quit with immediate effect?

The whole Lashley wanting out of TNA thing is a storyline. They're using it as a base for a heel turn.

It had been rumoured and it's now true that TNA have decided to stop using the 6 sided ring. A 4 sided ring is set up for Genesis tonight. TNA did use a 4 sided ring when they first started in 2002, but switched to 6 sides when iMPACT! made it's debut in 2004.

Highlight to see spoiler Ken "Mr Kennedy" Anderson is there.

Also Brian Kendrick is due to debut soon, will be a good addition to the X Division.

TNA Genesis Results (highlight below)

Amazing Red defeated Brian Kendrick to retain TNA X Division Championship

Sean Morley defeated Daniels

Tara defeated ODB to become NEW TNA Knockouts Champion

Hernadez & Matt Morgan defeated The British Invasion to become NEW TNA Tag Team Champions

Bobby Lashley refused to compete so Abyss knocked him out in Bischoff's office, Hogan then promised another opponent

Pope vs Desmond Wolfe had another great match with Wolfe winning this time. Brilliant that they got more time on this occasion due to it being PPV, just think WWE passed up on Wolfe and released Pope when they can put on wrestling like they do. Wolfe also has a sexy new valet accompanying him to the ring.

Beer Money Inc. defeated The Band (Nash & Sean Waltman) - Waltman replaced Scott Hall, good decision considering Hall isn't in shape. Hall came out towards the end pulled a fan over the guard rail (most likely a plant) which destracted Nash and Waltman, Roode got the pin on Nash.

The debuting Mr Anderson defeated Abyss - Abyss was going for a chair but Anderson pulled out brass knuckles.

AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle - Fantastic match going well over 30 minutes. Angle hit The Styles Clash at one point, Styles hit The Angle Slam, Angle did a top rope Angle Slam. The ending came when Flair pulled Hebner out of the ring while AJ was locked in the Ankle Lock and was going to tap, Flair then passed AJ the belt to use to knock out Angle. Still TNA World Heavyweight Champion - AJ Styles.

A much better PPV than I thought it was going to be really, only match I was unhappy with was Sean Morley beating Daniels.

WWE didn't pass on McGuinness/Wolfe IIRC, he was set to sign with them and then decided to go with TNA at the last minute. Hell of a wrestler though, as is Elijah, he's got to have been one of the biggest mistakes in being released imo.
