Throwing in the Towel: TNA – Destination X 2009
I need to address something. Before you read on with this wonderous piece of literature, you need to be aware that I had every intention of creating a proper article based on Destination X. I hoped it would be both informative, and entertaining, as well as being a fair critical assessment.
However, it didn’t pan out that way.
The pay-per-view was so atrocious, such a disgraceful, rejected, turd of an outcast, that I could only muster a couple paragraphs. Be warned…
Destination X was a fucking pile of abandoned fucking dog nards. Fuck me; Don West summed it up best though following the abortion of a Samoa Joe bout, when he said: “I feel bad for the fans.” No fucking shit DON!
The highlight came from, not the show itself, but the immediate Wikipedia entry on Scott Steiner’s page that read: “Scott Steiner was murdered on Total Nonstop Action Wrestling’s “Destination X” PPV by Samoa Joe…Who was wearing his new tights… In Which Joe Looked Like Umaga who then ate HBK.”
Sadly, they edited this, but I also loved Don West’s declaration that “it’s important to have feeling in your arms!”
Fucking shite.
I’m sorry. That’s all there is. But I’m not as sorry for writing that, as I am for sitting and watching those fleeting moments of TNA that occupied me at the beginning of this fucking week. This is an event that featured a babyface murdering a heel (or so we’re lead to believe), who deserved such a fate apparently. A retarded main event, grown men rolling in thumbtacks – without drama, just the kinky outfits – and an Awesome Kong match that went down as well as it came back up. TNA is fucked.
If you taped this show, just tape over it, because Destination X was a vile product from some serious douche-bags.
Thanks for taking the time to check this out. I welcome any and all feedback and I can be contacted at www.myspace.com/michaelwrestlingetc or simply by emailing me at Michael@ifight365.com. I look forward to hearing from you, and will be back soon!
