I just watched last night's TNA Impact, which was the first in the company's new 2-hour timeslot on SpikeTV.
I've been sort of burnt out on pro wrestling of late. WWE has become quite stale and I always found TNA's breakneck pace in the 1-hour timeslot to be far too hectic to enjoy. Ring of Honor has been my main source for pro wrestling, and, if you haven't checked out any of their DVDs, go to their site right now and purchase a couple. If you're a fan of in-ring performance and believable storylines, you'll love ROH.
Getting back to TNA, I'm not ashamed to admit that, in general, I'm not a fan of the 1-hour format. These last dozen years or so have spoiled many wrestling fans. One hour just doesn't give me my fix of wrestling. When it was announced that TNA was getting a 2-hour slot, I got a little excited. After all, the company employs several of my favorite wrestlers, including Samoa Joe, Christopher Daniels, Homicide, A.J. Styles and Low Ki (I refuse to call him Sen-Shi). Also, Alex Shelly and Chris Sabin are the best young tag team in the business and I'm really enjoying Jay Lethal's "Black Machismo" gimmick, despite my original reservations.
So, what did I think of last night's episode?
It was a solid first outing.
