So the last episode of iMPACT! before Sacrifice is now in the books.

A decent offering. The verbal duel between 3-D and The James Gang was decent. Sabin downing Puma in the X Cup was good. It did seem restricted by time though. Abyss/Christian had a spirited little brawl to set up Full Metal Mayhem. And the six-man main event (Styles/Daniels/Rhino vs. AMW/Roode) offered up some good action.

The concluding part of "Deal or No Deal" was fairly well written. I don't think it played out as well as it was written though. So now we've got Sting/Joe vs. Jarrett/Steiner at the PPV. Although it's the furthest thing from a dream match, Steiner/Joe offers up an interesting dynamic. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out.

And what can I say about the second part of the Kevin Nash interview. It seems Big Kev is showing up at the PPV to make an example of the X-Division. He basically said he wants to rule TNA and the only way he can do that is to be the guy who wipes out the X wrestlers. So I'm expecting him to either disrupt the X Cup Gauntlet, or he's going to cost A.J./Daniels their tag team title match. I'd put my money on the latter.

BTW did anybody else realize that this was the 100th episode of iMPACT!? Obviously TNA didn't...
