2021-02-23 Impact

 


Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2021-02-24, I am checking out last nights Impact.  We are deep in the working relationship for Impact and AEW so I am sure that will play into things here.  I think it is time to go friend out!
  • Interesting that Taya is still in the intro considering she is in NXT now.  
  • Who is that horrible announcer?
  • Is that Matt Striker?  
  • Seriously who are there announcers?
  • I think it is Striker, I am excited if it is!
  • I am more interested in who the announcers are not the match and that is sad
  • Something is going to get picked up by WWE in the future I believe as he seems to be a good-sized guy
  • This has not been a horrible match but I am just not into it.  To be fair it is probably because I have not been following Impact closely so I do not know the story
  • Uggg, they are putting in fake noise too.  It is just not overwhelming
  • D-LO!  THAT IS D-LO BROWN!
  • MOOSE!
  • I feel like if Monty Brown was still wrestling he would be in this spot
  • Scott D'Amore gets his own theme music?
  • I do like the fire that Scott shows on camera
  • You believe he believes
  • Willie Mack is the only guy in this match that feels like a star
  • Decay is still around?
  • Is this Mantaur 2.0?
  • So these guys are fighting to fight each other?  
  • JESUS A POWERBOMB ON THE KNEE!!
  • What was that by Alexander?
  • I hope Willie is okay after that bad bump!
  • Of course, the one guy that looks like a star is the one that takes the fall
  • Wait...are they the death dealers or decay?  I am confused
  • Tony Khan is SO bad
  • Wow Ryan looks just like his brother and sounds like him too
  • This is a HORRIBLE segment, it is sad that AEW is trying to get viewers from Impact
  • I love the plugging by the Good Brothers
  • Why Striker is not the lead announcer on Raw is beyond me!  The best announcer in the business now that he is back.  
  • Larry and Acey can move for their size
  • Well the one thing that made Larry special was his size and Doc already destroyed that with the throwaway slam
  • While Acey can move he needs to lose some weight or he is in trouble in a few years
  • Want to stand out in pro wrestling?  Do NOT get any tattoos
  • Damn Gallows can throw a boot
  • Finjuice is a HORRIBLE name
  • Well XXXL can never be taken seriously after that basic squash
  • This segment....that is one of the worst segments I have ever seen!
  • New York titles?
  • Sorry, Matt, Eddie is not in that conversation because he is in Impact
  • Are they making fun of Stephen P. New?
  • I wonder what is in Hernandez background that stops him from getting signed by WWE
  • That is the best call, the way D-Lo is selling that apron spot
  • That was really weird, Hernandez went up when Edwards was in a bad spot and then just sat there
  • Jazz wears a mask now and a jail jumpsuit.  Okay
  • Susan wears the jacket to wrestle?
  • Stiff looking crossfaces
  • I do not think ODB cares she was just kicked out
  • Why did Kimber just sit there waiting for that blow?
  • Susan seems like she is a step behind the rest of the girls
  • Jordynne just could not get that float over after the spinebuster
  • That move looks like it is an inch away from a broken neck
  • That acting with Jordynne and Jazz was cringe-worthy
  • I kind of like this Jake Something
  • Damn it!  I hate that run into the buckles yourself as hard as you are thrown into them
  • We just saw that leg trip spot in the Edwards match
  • The turned up the crowd noise
  • Three short clotheslines and nothing
  • WHAT A HEADBUTT!!
  • What a vertical by Moose
  • Wait....is Moose actually selling the superplex even though he did the move?  He is my new favourite person!
  • WTF?  RICH SWANN IS HERE!  SCOTT LIED!!
This was not a great show.  Not horrible but not great.  The best thing on the show was the announcing.  I love Striker.  He is over the top but I like that because he seems genuinely excited.  I also realize that there are a lot of green ladies in pro wrestling right now, which is not a bad thing but so many are rushed to TV sadly.  AEW and Impact are full of them.  Overall this is just...they need to cut this show down to 60 minutes and cut out things like the Casino segment or the backstage shit.
