Impact Wrestling Reax - 2/2/17

Read on for my thoughts on last night's Impact Wrestling.
- Broken Hardys/Lashley:
Win. Every. Title. Ever.

WWE should send The Club of Bullet to TNA permanently. They have the perfect excuse now that they're Raw tag team champions.

I mean, hey, Jeff's already tag team champion. He might as well get singles gold, too.

Lashley and Eddie had one hell of a match last week.

Nice reset of Lashley's title reign. Let's get back to business!

- Lashley vs. J. Hardy:
Do NOT get on Lashley's bad side.

Jeff's wacky offense has taken him far. Maybe Ambrose should go back to the pink hair and try to be the Jeff Hardy of WWE 2017?

Good GAWD what a powerbomb.

DAMN. Lashley surviving a Twist of Fate and Swanton back-to-back is pretty big. Or it should be, anyway.

Lashley's indestructible!!

Big Poetry in Motion spot.

OH MY GOD what a bump when Lashley avoided the big dive.

Fun for what it was. A good combination of a guy who's good at destroying people and someone who's good at destroying himself.

- Lashley/Eddie:
God Eddie is such a cuck. Just take my title, bro. It's all good!

Ha. Lashley putting him in his place.

Eddie is so unconvincing as a badass.

Oh, MAN. Eddie just getting sonned here.

- Tyrus promo:
If they challenge the Rock 'n' Roll Express or something I'll pop.

- Rosemary/Brandi:
Brandi in Decay would be pretty interesting, but it's not happening.

Ummm. I don't know if I'd want to mess with Rosemary after that insane Monster's Ball match.

- Rex/Spud:
OK, this is actually kind of funny for how silly it is.

- Sienna vs. Brooke:
I liked Brooke trying to beat Sienna quickly, knowing how dangerous she is.

I'm pretty tired of Maria. She's been pretty highly exposed.

Fine work so far.

Brooke has really put work in to not just be an attractive woman who just happens to wrestle.

Fine enough; Maria's part was overdone.

- DCC promo:
I'm curious to see what they have up their sleeves.

- More Rex/Spud:
What is this even leading to? Right now it's just Aron goofing off.

- DCC challenge:
I'd buy these guys as a threat if they didn't get bodied by the Hardys right out of the gate.

- DCC vs. Steve/Abyss:
Decay could use a friend.

I love a crazy hardcore brawl.

Abyss holding his own with all of DCC doesn't sit well with the whole "DCC can kick ass" thing.

Abyss is going to be working with barbed wire and thumbtacks when he's 50, isn't he?

Ha. So much for Kingston avoiding that bump.

Storm's fired up, which is good. Looks like he has something else to sink his teeth into.

Abyss has serious disregard for himself with some of these hardcore bumps. Jesus, man.

That was a pretty big win.

- Bennetts/Braxton:
This is pretty dreadful. Allie's been the saving grace of this angle. Segments without her aren't great.

- Galloway/Moose:
I like the Grand Title having different rules, since a lot of these people can also make it into the World Title picture.

I also like Drew insisting he's the hero.

Drew ducking Moose and coming up with justification for it is great.

Drew giving this guy a shot! How generous!

- Galloway vs. Ryzin:
-- Round 1:
Drew just destroying him already.

Drew's a lot of fun to watch.

Good one.

- Helms/Lee:
Really clever. I like their devious plan.

- DJ Z vs. Lee:
Trevor like a wolf targeting his prey.

DJ Z's gonna go down flippin'!

Trevor making sure DJ Z walks with a limp after this. Jesus.

Good to have a friend like Helm to help in this kind of situation.

GENIUS ending. I liked the logic here.

- Tyrus/Eli:
Jesus just tell us what it is already!!

- Robbie/Aron/Spud:
You'd think Aron would get paid more for wrestling than.... whatever this is, so he's want to get in the ring. This was fine enough to set up the next stage in the angle, though.

- Tyrus/Eli/EC3:
I like Tyrus as Eli's heavy. It adds something new to what both of them do.

Looks like a plan is underway here.

Drake has him where he wants him to get revenge. I like this.

- Drake vs. EC3:
This is just about punishment. I like it. Not everything has to be about winning titles or "moving up the ranks" or whatever.

Carter just trying to avoid being massacred here.

I'm liking this a lot.

Eli's someone to keep an eye on going forward.

NNNIIIIIIICCCCEEEE ending. I loved the storytelling here.

- Drake/Tyrus/EC3/DCC:
Well, Ethan got the win, but I don't know if he's any better off for it.

WOW. It's Everyone Hate Ethan Day, huh?

This is fun enough.

DCC just kicking everyone's ass tonight. Works for me. Make them a force to be reckoned with.

DAMN. That spike piledriver looked MEAN.

More wrestling coming up.
