REVIEW:

The Rock N’ Rave Infection (Lance Rock, Jimmy Rave and Christy Hemme) vs. The Prince Justice Brotherhood (Curry Man, Shark Boy & Super Eric)

This was a decent match,but it wasn’t anything to get too excited over.I would give it 2 out of 5 stars.

ODB vs. Awesome Kong w/ Raisha Saeed
Falls Count Anywhere Match

It was an okay match,once again,it wasn’t anything too great.I give it 2 out of 5 stars.

Abyss & Matt Morgan vs. Team 3D

There was some good stuff in the match.I like Team 3D,I’ve been fan of theirs since ECW,so any match with them is usually good/great.Morgan and Abyss worked pretty well together.I give the match 3 out of 5 stars.

Petey Williams (c) vs. Consequences Creed vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir
X Division Championship Match

Bashir winning means that he will more than likely feud with Creed,which sets up an Arab versus an American.Wow,how original.The match was cool,that I can say.I give it 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

Taylor Wilde (c) vs. Angelina Love
TNA Knockout Women’s Championship Match

Stupidest match of the night.I don’t like Angelina Love too much in the ring.She’s decent,but this feud is more about the storyline,rather than the wrestling.I give it 2 out of 5 stars.

Jay Lethal vs. Sonjay Dutt
Ladder of Love Match

This was a good match.I like the storyline here,and Black Machismo should eventually be at a higher level in TNA.He shouldn’t be a mid-carder for life,at least I hope not.I give the match 3 and a half out of 5 stars.

Beer Money, Inc. (c) vs. LAX
TNA World Tag Team Championship Match

Standard tag match.Nothing too exciting here.I give it 2 and a half out of 5 stars.

AJ Styles vs. Frank Trigg
Mixed Martial Arts Match

The crowd was chanting “We want Wrestling,” and “Fire Russo.” I am guessing that they weren’t happy with the match being a MMA match…I wasn’t either…Also,where exactly did this feud come from.On Impact Frank Trigg and AJ just made the match,three days before No Surrender,and then it’s like “okay,let’s just fight for no reason.” It was the worst match of the night…Sorry AJ,I like you,but this was bad.

1 and a half out of 5 stars.

Samoa Joe (c) vs. Booker T vs. Kurt Angle vs. Christian Cage
Four Ways To Glory TNA Championship Match

Booker couldn’t make the match due to the Hurricane,so it was just the three other guys.

Even without Booker,this was a good match.It was the best of the night,which didn’t surprise me.Jarrett came out at the end,and smashed a guitar over Angle’s head,to help Samoa Joe pick up the victory,and retain his title.

So,an Angle versus Jarrett match looks like it will be taking place at the next PPV.Also,Sting will face Samoa Joe for the TNA Championship.

I give this match a 4 out of 5

My final score for No Surrender has to be low.Only two matches really stood out for me,and that just isn’t enough when watching a Pay-Per-View.The final score is 2 out of 5 stars.
