The members of both factions are banned from ringside for this match. King drapes the leg of Anderson across the rope to gain the early advantage.

After 10 weeks of crying, kisses and keeping it 100, Rachel Lindsay's time as the Bachelorette is coming to a close.
We already know that the 32-year-old attorney left the show engaged, but with three guys left in the game -- Bryan Abasolo, Peter Kraus and Eric Bigger -- which man will win her final rose?
Exclusive: 'Bachelorette' Rachel Lindsay Talks Tearful Fight With Peter, Addresses Bryan's 'Player' Past
Though we won't find out for sure until tonight, here are seven clues that point to Bryan being the man who puts that Neil Lane sparkler on Rachel's finger.
1. Bryan Already Asked Permission to Propose
Though Peter has been just as much of a frontrunner throughout the season, he and Rachel have recently come to a head on the engagement issue -- with her making it clear that she wants a proposal at the end of the experience -- while he doesn't seem ready to commit. [link...

Bryan Abasolo, Eric Bigger or Peter Kraus? That is the question on The Bachelorette viewers' minds today as Rachel Lindsay's season comes to an end. And while we know Rachel's finale will end with a ring on her finger, we don't know yet who will be the man receiving her final rose. Ahead of tonight's finale, we asked some of Rachel's eliminated men, including Kenny King and Adam Gottschalk, to weigh in on who they think is the best match for the Dallas lawyer... And it seemed like the men were just as torn as Rachel over the decision! "Eric brings a very cool dynamic to Rachel," Adam told E! News at the Men Tell All taping. "He challenges her,...

ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey acknowledges a gaffe in how “The Bachelorette” contestants were picked for Rachel Lindsay, the franchise’s first African-American lead. The long-running dating show’s 13th season included drama centered around contestant Lee Garrett, a Nashville-based songwriter who caught flak for his racially charged tweets and reference to black cast members Eric Bigger and Kenny King as “aggressive.” Dungey told reporters at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour on Sunday that she doesn’t believe that the show used racism as entertainment, saying she doesn’t “have any regrets” about how those scenes were presented.

This week’s Impact from Indiana, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh saw the roster pairing up together in a lot of different ways. Everyone seemed to be uniting in the cause of getting rid of Aces and Eights. However, was it full of outrageous fortune or did it not come together in the end?
The show began where we left off last week with aces and eights running roughshod over security and superstars alike. After, getting in the building The first victim was James Storm, who congratulated Aj styles on his new finisher family the rather un-phenomenal named Calf Killer. (I guess it’s the baby version of Cattle Mutilation).

After last week’s Full Metal Mayhem, I was interested to see the second dose of Impact from Corpus Christi. There was a lot more action and a lot less Hogan. Although, the hand we were dealt with the Aces and Eights might not have been the strongest no matter how many beat downs they do. But I’ll explain soon enough.
Impact Wrestling began with a video package detailing the events of last week and that Jeff Hardy would not be appearing on this weeks episode. Then we go backstage and see the Sergeant in arms for Aces and Eights Devon talking to be younger, Garrett Bischoff and Wes Brisco that they need to take their match with Kurt Angle very seriously because he’s dangerous.
Wes and Garrett make their way to the ring but before we see Angle they give us a video package detailing the whole...

In the home of Arkansas State University, Tna came into town and delivered a show that was odd to say the least. The matches and angles themselves were a little off but what puzzled me more was the fact that they basically came out and told you at the beginning of the show the next two weeks don’t matter as they set up to big title matches for the next April 11 in Corpus Christi, Texas. When you go ahead and say a title match is coming in two weeks the audience already checks out of what you’re saying because you’re basically telling them to tune out because the next few weeks really does not matter.
Now, I know with the new pay-per-view schedule that this was going to happen, but I didn’t think they would be so blatant in like a throwaway episode of Impact in the process.

Hands up if you remember the WCW Invasion angle back when WWE owner Vince McMahon bought the failing company back in 2001. Now hands up if you were happy with the way Vince and co. handled the whole storyline. Not many of you I’ll bet. What could easily have been the biggest angle in the history of professional wrestling turned into a massive vanity project for the company’s head honcho who outright refused to see those boys from “Dubbya See Dubbya” get the better of any of his creations. It was a huge mistake.
A decade has passed since the horrible Invasion PPV and no one cares to discuss it. Plenty of ex-wcw guys recovered from the failed Invasion (Booker T for example) but many more just faded away into obscurity or simply did not take part (Kevin Nash, Hulk Hogan, Goldberg, Sting). But what if a similar angle...

Once again we make the return to the Impact Zone, and what do we have in store on the road towards Lockdown on March 10. It is the final night in the UK, and hopefully Tna will leave it in style with their own brand of quality wrestling and storytelling. Tonight will see more championship action for the lucky British fans, as Rob Van Dam defends his X Division Championship against the supremely confident Kenny King, and Tara has her back against the wall when she has to defend her Tna Knockouts’ Championship against three hungry challengers, namely Gail Kim, Brooke Tessmacher and Velvet Sky, in a four-way elimination match.
In addition to the championship action, we will see if Hulk Hogan finally gets the opportunity to name the Number One Contender for Jeff Hardy’s World Championship, or will he once again be interrupted by the force of Aces & Eights.

Another Thursday, another episode of Impact Wrestling passes us by, and tonight had all the makings of an excellent outing for the second largest wrestling organisation. Both the X-Division Championship and the World Tag Team Championships would be defended, there would be a tag team tables match featuring Bully Ray and Sting against members of Aces & Eights, and hopefully we will be treated to some explanations as to why Garrett Bischoff and Wes Brisco turned on their mentor Kurt Angle to join the nefarious biker gang.
Once again, the Impact Zone was emanating from Manchester in the United Kingdom, so expect some raucous crowd interaction and a great deal of low-key racism from the heel superstars tonight. The UK love it when either Tna or WWE come to their neck of the woods, and they will certainly try and make the most of the extended stay of the Impact wrestlers on their shores.

In this week’s edition of Tna Impact Wrestling, we are set to encounter the fallout from last week’s wedding fiasco. After Tazz’s shocking decision to join the Aces and Eights, the group gatecrashed the wedding and proceeded to take out every person in site, and forced Brooke Hogan to watch both her father and her fiancee Bully Ray get beaten down by the rebellious bandits. Also, there will be two championship matches, as Velvet Sky challenges Tara for the Knockouts Championship, and Jeff Hardy defends his World Heavyweight Championship against Christopher Daniels.
Tazz Speaks Out On His Betrayal
Tazz walks out to the ring accompanied by his Aces and Eights brethren, and begins to address the questions as to why he joined their group. In his reasoning, he mentions his thrill of being supported and guided by a higher power, which indicates that somebody particularly famous in...

Tna wrestler Christian York, 35, proves that age is no factor in being a rising star America’s second largest wrestling promotion. But will WWE ever be willing to hire older wrestlers as up-and-coming stars?
Back in November 2012, indy star York successfully passed his “Gut Check” trial on Impact Wrestling, winning himself a spot on the Tna roster. Following his signing, York was thrust straight into the X-Division title scene. Now, he is arguably one of the most over guys in the company.
The Virginia native’s success is a combination of technical ability and solid booking. Over the past weeks on Impact, York has proven himself in feuds with both older wrestlers (Rob Van Dam) and those with less experience (Kenny King). A friend of mine recently commented that watching York is like watching Bret Hart in his WWF days: you know he is good because he makes everyone else look good.

The X Division was once the best thing on television. These days it’s a watered down shell of it’s former self. Things were on the up with Austin Aries as champion which has ultimately led to him fighting for the World Heavyweight title in a PPV main event. Can you believe it? We can’t! Not from the company that pushed an enfeebled Jeff Hardy over Aj Styles.
So without further ado we look once more into our crystal ball and give you our thoughts on Tna Destination X 2012.
