Absurdity of it All
ABSURDITY OF IT ALL: 10 Most Absurd Things From Last Night's TNA Impact, Plus An Exclusive Look at TNA's Whiteboard of Booking

By Shane McKinley, Torch specialist

(1) Didn't Roxxi already get fired from TNA...twice? It was surreal to see her back.

(2) Kurt Angle comes back to talk about how it's not about "wrestling in front of millions." Well, he came to the right place.

(3) Also, the Olympic Gold Medalist vows to prove himself by taking out the rest of the "TNA Ten." To recap, Kurt Angle is #2. Rob Terry is #9. Uh-huh.

(4) O.J. came down from the heavens carried by pink straps. I thought wrestling phased out "wrestlers coming down from the rafters on wires."

(5) Nice shine for Jay Lethal in pairing him up with RVD and getting rid of that ridiculous Macho Man outfit.

(6) So, apparently all you need to do to become #1 contender is just run in after matches and start attacking people. Gotcha. But never, ever take off your shirt. Because it's just too damn cold in the Impact Zone, and Sting is tired of getting the sniffles.

(7) Too bad Desmond Wolfe didn't pull out a gun and shoot Abyss right in his goofy head. Instead, Wolfy used a broken glass bottle to slice Abyss open. I kind of wish they would turn this feud into a cheesy blaxploitation film. "Oh...No! You cut me good man. I'm ... I'm...bleeding, man!" There's a reason why many wrestling fans can't stand the Abyss character. Because a typical Abyss storyline make a Kane storyline look like a masterpiece. Can I vote in the storylines?

(8) I'm pretty sure Hall and Nash of 1997 would take a look at The Band of 2010, chuckle, and then beat themselves up for being so lame. You know what's cool? Eric Young's voice. Man, everywhere I go, people are doing that nasally-scraggly tone. Plus, don't forget Eric Young's two uncles, Hall and Nash. That's cool.

(9) After that eight-man X Division battle royal, all of the competitors were fired. TNA has to cut costs somehow. After the match, Ric Flair came out and nodded approvingly to Kaz. Because the 16-time World Champion thought that Suicide was the shizniz. Lethal vs. Kaz? Sure. They're running out of times Flair can appear.

(10) What TNA's "whiteboard of booking" looks like.
