Did anyone else notice how Matt Morgan was selling getting caught in the rope very badly, Crimson just waited around stalling for about 90 seconds, and then left the cage. As he was climbing over, Morgan leaped up, suddenly forgetting his selling, and everything was fine.
Let's not forget how gassed they were after 2 minutes either.

I didn't see the show, but this is really sounding like one of those situations where they're waiting too long to put the title on a guy and it might hurt him down the road. When he does finally win it, it won't mean nearly as much. John and Wai talked about it on the Wrestlereunion podcast in regard to RVD in WWE.

Hardy/Angle and Roode/Storm were very good. I did like the finishes.
Lethal Lockdown and the tag title match was also good. The booking for the rest of the show was fine even if the matches were lackluster.
Bobby Roode going over was certainly the right decision. The crowd certainly didn't deserve to see Storm win. They sucked and damn well ruined the show. It wasn't a blow-away show by any means but it was still a good show that was plagued by a dead crowd for most of it.
Roode and Storm had their first PPV match tonight. Storm has plenty of time to win the title. Roode is doing a classic Flair-style heel run with the title. A complete chicken-shit who lucks out or squirms his way out of a fair fight in order to keep his title.
This isn't Russo era TNA. They aren't going to drop the title on Impact.

I enjoyed the show and liked the Main Event finish. It was a great match, and again, the slow build to the future. My hope is Bound for Glory. Maybe have some fun with it by having Storm go through the Bound for Glory Series. The BFG series is a good concept in theory, it's just execution is difficult.
I enjoyed Lethal Lockdown. Kazarian's haircut was a bigger shocker then Undertaker's to be honest. I like how Garett started off the match and how they presented him as the rookie captain. The four veterans are talking about the match and Garett is like, hey, I'm green, but I want to prove myself. Eric Bischoff was like a slug in there though. The worst was when Garett hit the Mind Trip (Daizee Haze's finish which Garett does) on Daniels, goes for the pin, and the referee just walks to the side while Easy E attempts to stop the finish. Plus, I thought the finish with Garett getting the win over Eric was appropriate.

It's been a somewhat decent show tonight. I really liked Angle vs Hardy. I've been underwhelmed.... The two good matches would probably stand up better on their own than part of the PPV. Terrible booking and disjointed match order marred the event as a whole and makes it quite hard to maintain interest in the product IMO.

I didn't see anybody else point this out (if they did and I missed it, my bad) - but anybody else notice that when Gunner was on his way out to start Lethal Lockdown, they showed him at the Gorilla position, with Anderson and I think AJ standing right there? Awful. Probably just a case of them deciding to film guys on their way from the back without telling them they were going to.
