Raw Preview(non-spoiler), Against All Odds Results, more..

Tonights edition of Raw will run taped from last monday. Here is a rundown of what you can expect, shot(but not nessecarily to be run) in this order:
Hornswoggle v. McMahon-no dq
Y2J v. JBL-ends clean
The return of Paul Burchill in the debut of the 'incest angle' that's gotten internet buzz elsewhere as of late.
Cena v. Henry-Orton at ringside
Kennedy/Flair-face to face
Melina v. Maria-WWe's two hottest divas(I'll argue that with anyone)
Hardy v. Michaels-I am told this match is given lots of time and comes off very good with many near falls and a clean, uninterupted finish

Should be a decent show.

TNA Against All Odds took place last night and went down like this:
-Tomko ran in to assist Angle of all people with a Death Valley Driver on Christian Cage while the ref was down to score Kurt the fall.
-Abyss d. Judas in a match that was said by the live crowd to be bloody and pretty good but not as good as TNA's first Barb Wire Match between Abyss and Sabu. I say Duh.
-Motor City Machine Guns and Jay Lethal picked up the win in the street fight against Johnny Devine and Team 3D. Lethal left with the x-division title. It seems a last minute stipulation was added that whoever pins Devine wins the belt i.e; Black Machismo. I'm starting to agree w Sean about this title, and that doesn't happen often.
-Kong retained Knockouts Title defeating ODB
-Tomko and AJ successfully retained tag belts earlier in the night against BG James and father
-Steiner d. Petey Williams to leave with both the X-Division title shot case as well as the world. This match had some good wrestling but also a lot more of the pose/mock-pose, kill time during the match filler crap that was a good idea that's been repeatedly beaten to death week in and week out and hopefully for all of us we've been insulted by it for the last time.
-Booker T and Robert Roode wrestled to a double countout. What do people see in Robert Roode? Generic heel?
-Traci Brooks rolled up Payton Banks in a match that nobody cares about.
-Finally, Rhino returned to gore James Storm and help Eric Young pick up the victory to retain the Drinking Championship. After the match Rhino cut a promo about how he is back to kick ass and has lots to say this Thursday on Impact. Be warned.

TNA Impact the video game is scheduled for release on June 2nd of this years. Wrestling gamers should note that this game is 'supposed to' revolutionize wrestling gaming the way No Mercy did on the N64 console almost 10 years ago.

Kurt Angle has been quoted saying Bobby Lashley will be TNA's next 'acquisition.'
There are however also rumors that Lashley has met with reps from MMA.

Booker T will be getting a lighter schedule in the coming months to heel from several minor injuries that have bothered him as of late. Nothing major is wrong with the former G.I.Bro, however the feeling in TNA is with so much talent on the roster right now there is no need to overwork the still relatively new to the company former King Booker. One example of his work rate being reduced can be seen in the New York area TNA dates in late February. Originally billed to headline were Angle v. Booker for the title. As of this writing the cards have now been modified and show Angle being challenged by Cage, standing in for Booker. Should still be a treat, especially for any members of the live crowd that didn't see the ppv.

How's my spelling, jerk?
