Ian Denbow of Mitchellville, Md. (3.0): Best Match: Anything that involves ODB. Worst Match: Any ring action that involves Scott Steiner. Okay, since TNA seems to think it is so - allow me to present rocket science for dummies. First off - the fighting ref has got to go. I feel for Bashir. He just carried the belt for a bit, had no real credible opponents, and then dropped it so Eric Young could finally not look like a clown anymore with the help of the aforementioned spaz ref. Really? I'm all for Eric Young finally getting credible and serious, but just not a fan of how it's played out. The TNA Originals vs. the MEM has potential, but not on it's current path. First thing - ditch three-fourths of the "Originals." I understand giving them a rub and all that, but it's just not clicking. Advice - re-hire Chris Harris and reform AMW. Get Christopher Daniels out of that ridiculous Curry costume. Re-sign Elix Skipper, Low Ki, Amazing Red, and other real TNA originals. Stick them with A.J., Joe, and Eric Young, and then you have an Originals faction that might not look like schoolyard chumps compared to MEM. Next - I grew up a Steiner Brothers fan, but for God's sake, does TNA realize that Scott Steiner just doesn't have it anymore? His weak, slow, lumbering, over-the-hill offense hurts TNA's credibility. Also, does TNA not realize that by having Kurt Angle (who I love, don't get me wrong) lead MEM over the TNA World Heavyweight champion Sting undermines the champion? I could be wrong here, but Sting got more mic time before he joined MEM. Now he's just shown as someone following the rest of them when really, he's the catalyst for all of this. I'll await the turn where they all beat on him because Angle wants the title back after all this is said and done. Here's to hoping Christian goes back to WWE. Smackdown, preferably. Honestly, the only really intriguing anything right now is the Motor City Machineguns and how they fit into this whole ordeal.

Terrie Neilson of Las Vegas, Nev. (5.0): Best: Foley's chat with "Originals" (delivery); Sting vs. Lethal. Worst: MEM (minus Sting). The two hours of Impact went fast as a whole, but so did the downward spiral of quality. Foley's opening promo meant well and was delivered nicely, but Mick Foley gave a major backhand slap to the "Originals" by basically saying it was their fault that they were cheated. Huh? Is he implying that MEM's notorious behavior be responded to in the same notorious fashion in order to prove they're right? Where has Traci Brooks been? She's supposed to be "Knockout Law" and yet really has done nothing in the position, at least on camera. I'm getting the vibe that either Kong vs. Khan or Kong vs. Saeed is coming soon. Barring new blood brought in, they are the only two left who haven't faced Kong. We return to the Shane-Bashir situation to get the belt off of Bashir. A decision was altered last time to allow Bashir to be in a three-way for the title due to the ref interference. Not sure if they're going to do that again, as there is no Cornette to step in. Steiner vs. Rhino was such a random match with a very lame pin. Angle on commentary seems to have suddenly switched gears on his obsession with getting Jarrett in the ring. Whatever. Team 3D took over the Beer Money-Joe/A.J. match as if they were the stars of the show, completely messing up whatever there was meant to be there storyline wise. What an ugly nosebleed on Roode. The Sting-Lethal match gave another door for Sting to bail out of his heel turn, but it wasn't followed up on at all. No post-match observation on witnessing Lethal not taking an easy shot, or the other "Originals" putting The Guns in their place. Same with the Williams-Steiner thing. Instead of a chat leading to an ambush, we go right to the ambush with no explanation. And Christian's MEM initiation-turned-apparent-sendoff (or is it a sendoff?) could still make a martyr out of Christian should he actually leave.
