Erin’s Thoughts
Looks like Melissa Anderson is getting beaten down in every character she has. What’s left, Cheerleader Melissa?
This Kong/Tara stuff seems so random in its execution. I guess TNA feels the need to cram it in wherever they can.
really? you’re jobbing Christy out to the useless Lacey Von Erich? you have to be kidding me. i think i understand it. job one of their most popular knockouts out to the joke of the locker room. WTF TNA?
i didnt expect a lacey win
but i do like her chokeslam,
madison did most the ring work? so shouldnt she have got the pin?
i’m just sayin’ she never gets the pin, ever!
eaven velvet pinned someone last week (or was it the week before, it was in the battle royal)
at least kong vs tara is going somewhere
maybe if we are lucky we may get a singles match before 2011 :D
Are you sure these spoilers aren’t for October 29th only? As far as I know, TNA has tapings scheduled for November 2nd (to air November 5th) and November 3rd (to air November 12th), unless something changed.
So the Alissa-Hamada feud was limited to a 5 minute match? Why put Alissa and Tara in a random match together?
The ODB-Hamada-Christy Hemme matchup is also completely random. At least they allowed Madison to work this time, hopefully that will increase Madison’s confidence a little bit. It would’ve been nice if Madison scored the pinfall, but for the storyline pov its acceptable that Lacey got the pin. And also about time they let Christy Hemme job for a change.
And lets hope the matches have a normal length this time.
Well at least they are continuing that Tara/Kong feud. I am certain it’ll be one on one. Look at it this way, TNA has bad reputation of rushing big feuds too quickly that they run out of steam (Angle/Joe, now they’re doing it with Angle and Nigel McGuiness due to debut). Stretch it out so that the heat between them is at boiling point.
The downer about this one is Alissa JOBBING AGAIN! Dammit what does she need to get a win round here? I thought writing out Raisha Saeed would improve Melissa’s prospects. Sucks.
I wonder why Kong came down to the ring after the KO tag match. That’s gotta be explained on the night, somehow.
poor poor alissa,she still hasn’t won a note worthy match,her win over cody deaner was a poop win which means it doesn’t even count because she didn’t do anything,she needs to win SOMETHING,I say feed christy hemme to her,we all know christy can’t beat alissa
besides alissa still jobbing,i’m look forward to these matches
maybe when alissa reaches madison’s level of win/loss or even sojo’s we can classify her as a jobber. although, yes, it sucks she only has the one singles win. vintage kong is back and they seem to be going somewhere further with her and tara – i take it they ditched the kim couture stuff, then?
and yeah, these spoilers are all for next week as they have another two taping days right at the start of november.
and gail kim and awesome kong only met in singles matches i think five times (once before their feud even started) in almost a year. what’s with this desire to have kong/tara happen so quickly? we bitch when feuds end too soon and bitch when they make them last longer. it seems like everybody’s too hungry for a payoff that to be honest would be even sweeter with a longer, high-profile build-up.
Alissa Flash is not a jobber! I’m telling you her time will come.
keep hoping and believing that she will get a push.
TNA is still continuing the feud with Awesome Kong and Tara.
They have alot of ko’s to do something with.
Maybe she will get a win or a push after next weeks impact and they tape impact on November 2 and 3
Daffney, Christy, sojo and most of the knockouts haven’t won a match
@Kaledrina, I agree with your sentiment about Tara/Kong. I mean the Gail/Kong feud was lucky in that it was booked perfectly, but with a lot of its male wrestlers TNA has had a reputation in the past (especially when Jeff Jarrett was around on creative) to rush out all potentially huge feuds so quickly out of the gate that they lose momentum. Kurt Angle/Samoa Joe for example.
The 3-way at BFG showed me that these two can probably work together one-on-one very well. They are yet to meet each other in such a match. That is the intrigue of the whole thing. Hopefully TNA will choose an appropriate venue for a blowoff match to then put the feud into the next gear.
“Alissa Flash is not a jobber! I’m telling you her time will come.”
She has been in TNA for 2 years and has won 1 tagteam match as Saeed and 1 solo match against Deaner (which doesnt count). Melissa is one of those people who could easily carry the entire knockout division, but its obvious TNA has no interest in her as a big star, she is only there to make other knockouts look good. And why would her time come? She lost cleanly to every knockout in the division (as Saeed), and as Alissa she lost cleanly to Sarita, ODB, Hamada and Tara, which basicly puts her at the bottom of the knockouts division. Just like Jillian in WWE, i’ve already given up hope that she is ever going to be used properly in TNA.
Fortunately the Knockouts are allowed to do indy shows like Shimmer/NCG/WSU so Melissa-fans like myself can still enjoy her outside TNA.
LOL at Mikas reacting like Alissa has lost to people like Sojo or Christy
Like Kaledrina said, her time will come. the lose against ODB doesnt sh1t since its a fcking webmatch so the casuals dont know about that match.
At the next week tapings’s TNA is gonna let her squash Christy(she has become the face jobber)
Lethal lost against Dr Stevie in a webmatch, but it doesnt hurt his credibility ’cause its a webmatch
This is what I don’t get. ODB is the champion and is put on the backburner. Wouldn’t it have been better had they had either Kong or Tara win the title at BFG. Therfore the title could be a centre piece for the rivalry

*Sigh* Melissa is becoming a Jillian for TNA.

Did I just read someone saying Christy is being jobbed out? Oh WOW, lmao.
I like the idea of Tara and Alissa Flash wrestling. Lacey Von Erich going over, not so.
poor poor alissa,she still hasn’t won a note worthy match,her win over cody deaner was a poop win which means it doesn’t even count because she didn’t do anything,she needs to win SOMETHING,I say feed christy hemme to her,we all know christy can’t beat alissa
besides alissa still jobbing,i’m look forward to these matches
and yet nobody gives 2 sh*ts about Alissa so she won’t win.
Alissia lost again…jeez…
maybe when alissa reaches madison’s level of win/loss or even sojo’s we can classify her as a jobber. although, yes, it sucks she only has the one singles win. vintage kong is back and they seem to be going somewhere further with her and tara – i take it they ditched the kim couture stuff, then?
and yeah, these spoilers are all for next week as they have another two taping days right at the start of november.
i think people need to remember two things:
alissa doesn’t need to win to look good
and gail kim and awesome kong only met in singles matches i think five times (once before their feud even started) in almost a year. what’s with this desire to have kong/tara happen so quickly? we bitch when feuds end too soon and bitch when they make them last longer. it seems like everybody’s too hungry for a payoff that to be honest would be even sweeter with a longer, high-profile build-up.
Poor Alissa, I guess relentless hard work and paying your dues doesn’t pay off in TNA.
chrisP – I’ll take your word for it. I can never keep track of their taping schedules.
Alissa Flash is not a jobber! I’m telling you her time will come.
keep hoping and believing that she will get a push.

God, where’s SoJo when you need her?
