TNA Genesis Preview\Predictions

TNA Genesis can be on paper one of the worst cards in a long time, but I do think some of these matches can be good enough, sadly, it is all about the story and the angles at the moment, and even some of those angles are just bad, can TNA pull a decent upset with the Immortal "pressure"? Probably not.

#1 Contender for the TNA Title

Mr. Anderson vs. Matt Morgan:

The on-going angle of Anderson and his concussion may gave Immortal some heat, but the matchup between Morgan and Anderson is just bad.

On top of the fact that I really do not understand how TNA is even trying to hint of giving Morgan another title shot after the last two horrible matches between him and Hardy.

Winner:

Ken Anderson.

TNA Television Championship Match – If AJ Styles loses he is out of Immortal\Fortune

Champion Douglas Williams vs. A.J. Styles:

TNA got a weird track record of giving and taking titles from wrestlers in recent weeks, and with the angle of Styles leaving Fortune (if he losesw), it only looks like a decent way to turn Style face again and perhaps go against Immortal sometimes this year. I could be wrong obviously and Styles will regain the title, but then, what was the point of giving it to Williams? Just to have a horrible way to “motivate” Immortal members to step up their game (as a story\angle that is)? Really bad creative call if this will actually be the case.

Winner:

Williams, leading to AJ Styles to a be excluded from Fortune and give him a Face turn.

TNA Tag Team Champions Motor City Machine Guns vs. Beer Money:

With the big angle for Immortal, I cannot see TNA removing Beer Money from Immortal\Fortune, and with the really lackluster title reign of MCMG, It would be quite logical to give Beer Money the titles and perhaps, get a decent feud against someone else than MCMG and Generation Me.

Winners:

Beer Money.

TNA X Division Championship

Champion Jay Lethal vs. Kazarian:

The weird decision to give Lethal the title just to give Kazarian a Face person to take the title away from him is really odd to me. I do not think Kazarian will be out of Furtune since he will not be a good Face, and there is no reason TNA will remove Kazarian from Fortune just to push him as a singles heel competitor.

Winner:

Kazarian.

Brother Ray vs. Brother Devon:

This entire feud was just bad since day one, it was predictable and disappointing, both Devon and Ray are not good alone, TNA tried to push Ray and Devon as single competitors for a few times, and all of those tries failed miserably.

Winner:

I would choose Devon, just to give him the “last word” on the very heel segments and momentum for Ray.

Rob Van Dam vs. Jeff Hardy's handpicked opponent:

It would be interesting who TNA got in mind for this match, also since Anderson will probably pick up the win, I wonder how TNA will give RVD “his chance” to face Hardy as promised, the actual match is not really interesting, but more of the direction TNA will go with.

Winner:

RVD. Unless TNA is going with a different angle\new feud for RVD.

Jeff Jarrett vs. Kurt Angle In An "Exhibition":

I am not sure if this match is official or not, and since it looks like the reports of who it is might be a spoiler, for now, I will just talk about the general direction of this match.

This whole MMA challenges with Jarret is not bad with the actual mma parts of it, as it was leading to the last PPV, but TNA is dragging those segments way too much. It is pretty obvious in a first glance who will win this, but with the fact that Samoa Joe lost to Jarret and the big Immortal angle, it would be interesting to see, even though it is pretty clear that Angle will win.

Winner:

Kurt Angle.

Conclusion:

TNA has to exclude someone from Fortune\Immortal to do send a message and keep the major angle going, from all wrestlers, Styles is the only one who can work as a face pretty decent, and for that, TNA might put Styles against Hardy (which is having a lot of problems lately with this allegations for his drug bust a few years ago) for the title.
