Match observations:

Well, David Young proved why he was the King of the Death Match champion when he defeated all three of the other tournament semifinalists in a brutal match, the guy everyone seems to be feeling sorry for is Orlando Jordan. He came so close, but could not get the job done. Jordan will only get better, but is a little green yet.

Funaki had a brutal match against Paul London in which he won and retained the X-title, thank god that London and Funaki shook each other's hands after.

Although we promised a first blood match this week, we decided to put it off until next week, and rest assured it will be brutal

The Tag Team Titles are staying where they are too right now, and personally, I can't see any team defeating them for a while yet.

We have a new World champion in Norman Tharx. Although Elix Skipper wrestled in a previous match, so did Tharx, he was the third man in the 10 man rumble and won the whole thing. I think it was the interference from Jeff Jarrett that done Skipper in, so it has been set a match between Jarrett and Skipper next week, and we can promise you one thing, this match will be a surprise to both wrestlers, in facy it will be a random gimmick match! (I won't use the random option (I'll put about four or five gimmick matches in a hat and whichever I pick out will be the match. But we will promise it will be brutal.

As for Norman Tharx, well since Norman lost to Funaki last week it is only fitting that Funaki get the first title shot against Norman, so in the main event, it will be champion vs. champion, with only the World Title up for grabs, and it won't be a regular match either it will be at least two seperate matches (the first match will be a Singapore cane match, the second will be a barbed wire dog collar table death match. If Funaki wins the first two matches then he automatically wins the title, or if Norman wins the first two matches then he keeps the title. If the series is tied after the first two, then it will go to a third match, which will be a taped fist ladder match.

Until Next Time, I'm Mike Tenay, along with Don West saying see ya next time on NWA-TNA.

Man, a five hour show. You really like CZW.

Good stuff, and interesting results. Skipper as champ I bought, but I've never even heard of this Norman Tharx fellow so that's kinda bleh.

Styles/Storm as tag champs is the coolest thing ever.

And I don't buy David Young winning matches period, but should be interesting where you take him from here.
