Who is this fella?

A spot monkey that almost broke his neck in his last apperance on IMPACT.

[st lickem]

does the shit generic evolve entrance music bother anyone else or just me?

[EmpireWF]

Son of a bitch, Husky Harris out at least 6 months with a torn pec.

Kenny King, Dakota Darsow (using those names, how refreshing), "Flip Casanova", "Lars Only" are the four X Division competitiors tonight on Impact.

Mark Haskins is expected to be one of those geek names, no word on who the other guy is. Darsow is the sone of Barry Darsow, aka Demolition Smash/Repo Man. He was in WWE develomental for a while. Kenny King is the ROH wrestler who is very very good. He was a TNA jobber in the early Impact days, I guess they will push him as returning since he isnt being given a gimmick name.

Darsow just worked the EVOLVE preshows this past weekend, he looked ok but nothing to write home about.

Looks like ROH dropped the ball on Kenny King. He never signed a new contract after his old one expired, and it appears he is jumping to TNA. Of course, All Night Express are the ROH Tag champs, so thats really embarrassing if he is indeed jumping.

I guess the finish of his match will tell the story. Even if he loses, it looks bad for an ROH champion to lose in TNA.

LOL ROH

[SHOGUN]

And they just won the fucking belts! A potential positive is that we can finally see what King can do when he's given the ball solo. I <3 me some Kenny King and hope he shines in the new TNA.

Poor Rhett.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

LOLROH.

Jesus Christ.

[SHOGUN]

Casanova/Darsow was REALLY sloppy.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Kenny King looked good.

Other guys, not so much.

[Warner2BruceTD]

HOLY SHIT, look at this NOAH show:

Announced for the 7/22 show at Sumo Hall is Takeshi Morishima vs. Go Shiozaki for the GHC heavyweight title, Jun Akiyama & Akitoshi Saito vs. Samoa Joe & Brutus Magnus for the GHC tag titles, the return of KENTA vs. Naomichi Marufuji (KENTA has been out since December due to knee surgery and returns against his career biggest rival), Yoshinobu Kanemaru vs. Christopher Daniels for the GHC jr. title, Kotaro Suzuki & Atsushi Aoki vs. Ricky Marvin & Super Crazy for the GHC jr. tag titles, Maybach Taniguchi vs. Tajiri (this comes from an angle where Taniguchi gave Hajime Ohara a beating on a Wrestling New Classic–Tajiri’s company–show), the Japanese pro wrestling debuts of Ross & Marshall Von Erich (Kevin’s sons) vs. Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls, Taiji Ishimori vs. Masahiro Takanashi (from the DDT promotion) plus Kota Ibushi is on the show.

Every single match is interesting for one reason or another. Tons of outsiders (Tajiri, Kota Ibushi, the TNA guys, Takanashi), debut of the Von Erich kids, four title matches, and the return of KENTA. Fuck, that is loaded.

Watching Impact now.

Poor Darsow, he got is ass kicked legit by a guy who was totally reckless and didn't protect him. Casanova is an out of control mess.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Too bad Rhett Titus couldn't make the jump with Kenny King. Just read that ROH has THREE SHOWS booked for the entire summer until the September iPPV.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Flip Casanova was Flip Kendrick, I didn't even make the connection while watching. He's usually a lot better than that.
