Let me say this, as a fan of George Romero's, I find this diary to be very intresting. I can't wait to see how this pans out........Don't forget Yokozuna though.......You can't forget Yoko....

Now it looks better, maybe some colours?

The only thing I didnt like was a factual error but that can quickly be explained away. Steve Austin (although may be on bad terms with WWE) does have a WWE films deal and I imagine a WWE deal that would keep him from TNA and I didnt see anywhere that WWE had fired him in your game. I like the diary so far though. :kiss:

From Wrestling Observer.....
WHAT YOU DIDN'T SEE AT TUNRING POINTLast night was seen as a sucess from within the company. Steve Austin's suprise debut was seen as a huge sucess. Everyone was observed to be in really high spirits. The only injury coming out of Turning Point was a Fractured Orbital Bone to Petey Williams from a stiff Chris Sabin kick. Williams should be able to compete in two weeks, when iMPACT goes live on Monday. Also, Konnan put in his release, as he has taken the head booker position within AAA. It is expected, from his speech, that Konnan will not be at the first ever live Impact. And finally, Abyss has signed a written contract, effectively pulling him off the indy scene.

OCC: This PPV is part of the backstory. I will be more detailed in later write ups
The opening Turning Point promo is shown
Turning Point.......For a company on the turning point,
tonight might be the final battle......A company that has
forged an indentity.....Might never be seen from
again......Tonight the indentity of a lockeroom will be on
display, for the show will always go on......Tonight, Rhino
will try to become the two time NWA Heavyweight
Champion......For Rhino, a man who was once fired and told
he will never be anything, this night is special.....Tonight, AJ
Styles will defend not only his championship, but he will
defend the TNA Lockeroom(We see Samoa Joe totally
destroy the TNA locker room. Then we see Joe injure
Christopher Daniels.)........For a team (we see Team 3D),
tonight they try to find redemption at the turning
point.......And tonight a man (we see Christian Cage), at the
turning point of his career, he seeks unfufilled
potential......And now, TNA Wrestling proudly brings to you
Turning Point!!!
Opening Pyro
Tenay: Welcome to TNA Turning Point!!! I am Mike Tenay, and with me is Don West. Tonight we will see Rhino get his NWA Heavyweight Championship rematch when he faces Jeff Jarrett. Larry Zybysko has promised that he will get a special mystery referee for that match.
West: And, Mike, I have been hearing the rumors. And if they are true, we may be in for a huge night. I can't wait!!!
Tenay: Also, for the first time in TNA we will see a Barbed Wire Match, as Sabu takes on Abyss
West: YES!!!! It's the one thing that this MONSTER is afraid of....That Barbed Wire!!!!! What will Abyss do, when he is enclosed in that WIRE????
Tenay: I don't know. Also, for the first time in TNA, we will see The Phenomenal AJ Styles take on Samoa Joe. This newcomer Joe has really destroyed the TNA lockeroom recently.
West: Yeah Mike, this Samoa Joe is a brutal monster. In recent weeks he has laid out everybody. Shark Boy, Jerrelle Clark, Sonjay Dutt and of course The Fallen Angel.
Tenay: Are you ready Don?
West: You bet I am, lets go to the ring.
Jeff Jarrett's music plays
Tenay: Oh for the love of god, what is he doing here??
Jeff Jarrett comes down to the ring, and grabs a mic
Jarrett: Zybysko!!! I want you down here right now!!! Zybysko get down here right now, or this show stops!! I want some answers!!!!
Larry Zybysko comes down to the ring
Jarrett: Just who in the hell do you think you are??? I want answers!!! I want to know who will be this mystery referee, and I want to know right now!!!!
Larry: Jeff.....Jeff.....Jeff.....In due time.....In due time....
Larry goes to leave, but Jarrett pulls him back in the ring
Jarrett: I am The King Of the Mountain, I deserve some respect, and I damn sure deserve some answers!!! Now tell me who it is, or you will be sorry!!!
Larry: In due time!!
Jarrett slaps Zybysko, and this starts off a brawl between Zybysko and Jarrett. Soon security comes down and breaks it up
Tenay: Now that all that is sorted out, lets go to the ring.
LANCE HOYT VS. SIMON DIAMOND W/ SKIPPER & YOUNG
This was a solid opening match. Hoyt dominated the first have of the match, and even had Diamond set up for the Big Boot, but David Young held onto Hoyt's legs. This is where the match went in Diamond's direction. Diamond connected with the Simon Series Suplex's. Hoyt made a momentary comeback, but was cut short when David Young distracted the ref, allowing Elix Skipper time to blindside Hoyt with a chair. Simon Diamond picked up the easy pin on the fallen Hoyt. After the match, The Diamonds in the Rough
celebrated in the ring
Overall Rating: B-
Mike: What a great way to start off the show.
Don: I think that Elix Skipper, and the rest of The Diamonds will have to answer to Lance Hoyt in the near future. Did you hear the fans chanting Hoyt!! Hoyt!!! Hoyt!!! The Impact Zone loves him!!!
Mike: Now, that brings us to our next match. A Tag Team match so personal, the naming rights to a team is at stake. Just watch this....
A BG James/ Kip James vs. Konnan/Killings promo is shown. It goes all the way back, when Kip James first debuted. It highlights the tension between the members of 3LK, when BG asks to bring in Kip. It shows footage from last week's iMPACT, where BG finally turned of Konnan and Killings, thus making him a heel. It is announced that the winners of this match will keep the 3LK name.
THE BATTLE FOR 3LK: BG JAMES & KIP JAMES VS. KONNAN AND RON KILLINGS
This was a back and forth ten minute match. Each team got in equal offense, and it looked like each team would win at any moment. The ending came when Kip James attempted a Famouser, but Konnan moved, and locked in the Tequilla Sunrise and got Kip to tap out. Konnan and Killings get to keep the 3LK name. After the match Konnan got on the mic and thanked all the fans for thier support. He says that it is an honor to be able to retire the 3LK name, the right way. He tells the fans that tonight will be his last appearance on
TNA. He thanks Killings, and throws his shoes out into the crowd, as the crowd chants his name for the last time in a TNA ring.
Overall Rating: B
West: What an emotional speech by Konnan. At least he was able to go out the right way.
Tenay: But where does this leave Killings?? Now both of his partners are gone. BG turned his back on him, and now Konnan is leaving?? What a shock.
West: Just think about it Mike, there is no more Three Live Kru. That was one of the best teams in TNA!!! You said it Mike, WHAT A SHOCK!!!
A Final Resolution Promo is shown
Shane Douglas: I am here backstage with Team 3D. Guys in just a while, you will try and achieve something you have never done, and that is win the NWA Tag Team Championships. And you have to face the team of AMW. Your thoughts??
Brother Ray: AMW we came to TNA for one thing, and one thing only. And that is to cement our legacy as the best tag team in the history of our buisness. AMW, you are younger faster, and stronger than us, but you are not smarter. You see when you signed those contracts to face us, you didn't see that clause. A clause that makes this a table match!! Boys, in just a little while, you will see why they call us the masters of wood.
Brother Devon: Testify!!!!
Shane: Mike, back to you.
Mike: Man, I cannot wait for that one.
West: Yes!!! Someone will be sent through a TABLE!!!!!!
Mike: Let's go to the ring for the X-Divison Shootout.
X-Divsion Shootout: MATT BENTLEY VS. SONJAY DUTT VS. AUSTIN ARIES VS. ERIC YOUNG VS. ANDY
DOUGLAS
This was a fast paced match. Every particapant got in at least one big spot. Of course, there was the obligatory Pyramid Powerbomb involving all wrestlers. Suprisingly, Eric Young picked up the win after a Showstopper on Sonjay.
Overall Rating: B-
Mike: What a great X-Divison matchup.
West: Mike that is what the X-Divsion is all about, no limits. You will see things you thought were IMPOSSIBLE!!!
Mike: We've just learned that Eric Young, since we just won, will face the winner of the Chris Sabin-Petey Williams match, on our next Impact, and the winner will be the number one contender for the X-Divison Championship!!!
West: Man, I can't wait for our next match. This is one encounter I've been looking forward to all night. Monty Brown versus Christian Cage!!!
Tenay: Christian Cage, who was once in the WWE, has joined up with TNA, because he says that is where the competion is. And it looks like that has sent a jealous streak into The Alpha Male.
West: Brown says he will P..P..POUNCE!!! Christian Cage, well we'll have to see about that.
"THE ALPHA MALE" MONTY BROWN VS. CHRISTIAN CAGE
This match ended just as anyone would've predicted. TNA officials didn't want to job out Cage in his first match, but didn't want to job out their most over performer. At around the 14 minute mark, both wrestlers started brawling outside. This led to a double countout, but niether man cared. Both men brawled all around the Impact Zone for another 5 minutes before being seperated.
Overall Rating: A
We see footage of Jim Mitchell psyching Abyss up for his Barbed Wire match with Sabu
At this point, TNA President Dixie Carter makes her way down to the ring.
Dixie: I just want to thank all the fans for supporting TNA throughout the years. I am here to make a big announcment concerning the future of our company. After some negoitations with Spike Tv, they have agreed to change TNA Impact. Starting two weeks from tommorow night, TNA Impact will be shown on it's new date and time, on Monday nights from 8-10, live from right here at the Impact Zone!!!!! On that card we will begin an eight man tournament to crown the very first, TNA Mid-Atlantic Champion!!!! Also, from the carnage that just took place, I am ordering a rematch between Christian Cage and Monty Brown, to take place in a Falls Count Anywhere Match!!!
Mike: My god, Don, we are going live!!! In two weeks!!! Do you know what this means??
West: You bet I do, Mike. This is HUGE!!!! We are going LIVE!!! ON MONDAY NIGHTS!!!! My god, Mike!!!
Mike:This is unbelievable news, Don. You know how we top that news off??
West: Hows that Mike??
Mike: More exciting TNA wrestling!!!! Let's go to the ring.
"THE CHARISMATIC ENIGMA" JEFF HARDY VS. ALEX SHELLEY
This match blended each mans style very well. Jeff Hardy was able to get off all his signature high spots, while Shelley was impressive with his technical ability. The ending came when Alex tried to German Suplex Jeff off the top ropes. Jeff blocked Shelley's attempt, and pushed Shelley to the ground. Jeff Hardy hit a Swanton Bomb on Shelley for the win. After the match, Ravev came running down to the ring and Evenflow DDT'ed both men. Raven was over a motionless Jeff Hardy, slapping him and screaming at him to "Wake Up!!!" Security came down and escorted Raven out of the building.
Overall Rating: B
Mike: What is Raven doing here??
West: I don't know, but I have a feeling Jeff Hardy, the Charismatic Enigma, will want some answers.
Sabu is seen laying down, meditating, on top off a barbed wire board.
Mike: Well, it looks like Sabu is getting ready for his matchup for later on tonight. Let's go to Jeremy Borash for the introductions to our next match.
PETEY WILLIAMS W/ TEAM CANADA VS. CHRIS SABIN
This match was the dissapointment of the night. Despite wrestling eachother before, both men just didn't click in this match. Early on in the match, Sabin kicked Petey really hard in the head, and for the rest of the match Petey was visably favoring the right side of his face. Sabin attempted a Cradle Shock, that Williams reversed into the Canadian Destroyer for the win.
Overall Rating
West: My god, Mike. That means in two weeks on our first live edition of Impact, stablemates will face off as ERIC YOUNG TAKES ON PETEY WILLIAMS!!!
Mike: That will definately be a matchup worth watching. Now let's take a look at this video package.
An AMW vs. Team 3D prom is shown. It basically shows the history between the two teams, and talks about how the two most dominant tag teams in history will collide tonight.
NWA TNA TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP: TABLES MATCH: AMW W/ GAIL KIM © VS. TEAM 3D
This was a nice fast paced 17 minute match. James Storm was eliminated first when Team 3D hit the 3D on Storm through a table. After some close calls, Harris was able to even the sides. Brother Ray had Harris down, and grabbed his feet. Brother Devon climbed to the top rope, and was going to do a Flying Headbutt to Harris' groin. Gail Kim shook the ropes, and Devon crotched himself. Harris was able to free himself of Brother Ray's clutch, and chokeslamed Devon from the tope rope, to the outside where Devon crashed through a table. As medical personal was checking on Devon, James Storm came back out, and AMW was able to capitialize by deliverin a Death Sentence on Brother Ray through a table, for the win. After the match, AMW and Gail Kim celebrated in the ring and declared themselves the best tag team in the history of wrestling.
Mike: What a match!!!
West: You are telling me. I thought Brother Devon was dead, after a CHOKESLAM FROM THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!!!
Mike: Oh but Don, next we have a match that is seeped in revenge, just take a look.
An AJ Styles vs. Samoa Joe promo is shown. Styles has vowed revenge for all the wrestlers that Samoa Joe has put on the shelve. AJ proclaims that he is the measuring stick in TNA, and Joe will see exactly how he measure up. AJ dedicates this match to Christopher Daniels.
TNA X-DIVISON CHAMPIONSHIP: AJ STYLES © VS. SAMOA JOE
This match went 23 minutes, and didn't disappoint. Joe actually got more fan reaction than AJ did. AJ looked confused for awhile, because the fans booed his offense yet cheered for Samoa Joe-The Heel. Both men, of course, got in all of their signature moves. Many times throughout the match, AJ looked like he would win, but Joe would suprisingly kick out. At one point, AJ hit 5 straight Styles Clashes on Joe, only to have Joe kick out. In fact, right after that happened, AJ climbed the turnbuckles. And looking like a man on a mission, AJ hit The Spiral Tap. And, Samoa Joe kicked out!!! Pissed, AJ went outside and grabbed a chair. He went to hit Joe in the head, but "Slick" Mark Johnson(referee) grabbed the chair. AJ looked straight into Johnson's eyes, and hit him with an enziguiri. Johnson had no choice but to DQ AJ. After that, AJ grabbed the chair, and placed Joe's foot into the chair. AJ ascended the turnbuckle, and was ready to jump down. Before AJ could break Joe's ankle, Christopher Daniels rushed down and told AJ, "This is not the answer!!! Not like this AJ!!!"
Overall Rating: B
Mike: Man, Don, I wonder what has gotten into AJ???
Don: All I can think of, is that he was mad Joe kept kicking out, and mixed with his hatred towards Joe for injuring Daniels, that he just SNAPPED!!!!!
Mike: Let me tell you, Joe just gained alot of respect, for his refusal to get pinned. That was, no pun intended, a phenomenal effort.
West Mike!!! I hear we got to cut to the back!!!!
We see Terry Taylor in the parking lot
Terry: Hey guys!!! I am hear awaiting the arrival of the special guest referee. I am expecting a limo to arrive anytime now.
NWA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP: GUEST REFEREE: JEFF JARRETT © VS. RHINO
Both men enter the ring, and are awaiting the arrival of the guest referee. Jarrett is impatiently pacing the ring.
A limo is seen pulling into the the parking lot.
Terry: Hello!!!......Who is in there?? Hello???
The door to the limo is opened..........and out steps.........The Honky Tonk Man!!!!! Jarrett is ecstatic.
Terry: Honky Tonk???? Wha......What are.....Are you the referee??
Honky Tonk What?!?!?!?! This isn't the Sports Entertainment Hall Of Fame???? Well crap......Terry did you know I was the longest reigning Inter.........
Terry: Yes, I know Honky......
At this point, a black truck is seen speeding into the parking lot. It speeds right by Honky and Terry, and drives into the arena!!! When the driver gets out of the truck it is revealed to be......"The Rattlesnake" Steve Austin!!!!!!!! Jeff Jarrett is livid!!!
The crowd was hot for the duration of this 17 minute match. Alot of "What??" chants were heard throughout the arena. Jeff Jarrett gameplan was thrown off with the arrival of Austin. Jarrett, increasingly thorughout the match, kept verbally abusing Austin. Once. Jarrett layed a hand on Austin, Austin Stunnered him. After the Stunner, Rhino took advantage and hit the Gore on Jarrett for the win, and the title. Austin and Rhino celebrate in the ring with beers being thrown in.
Overall Rating: A+
A history of the Barbed Wire Match is shown, with commentaries by Terry Funk, Shane Douglas, Larry Zybysko, and Raven.
Tenay: I still can't believe "The Rattlesnake" Steve Austin is now in TNA!!!!
Don:I know.......WOW!!!!! that's all I can say......WOW!!!!!
Mike: Look at this barbed wire being placed on the ropes.
Don: This is going to be BARBARIC!!!!!!
MAIN EVENT: BARBED WIRE MATCH: ABYSS VS. SABU
This was a suprisingly short match. The actual match only lasted 10 minutes, but both men bled buckets. At one point, Jim Mitchell tried to interfere, only to have Sabu hook him in the wire. The ending came when Abyss found some spare wire, wrapped it up on his arm, and Black Hole Slammed Sabu for the win.
Overall Rating: B+

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I know 6 matches is a little extreme for the WWE. I however, don't care for angles and interviews, and it shows in how I just summerize thoughs aspects while providing more detailed match descriptions. And, with 11 segments to fill I split the interviews/angles with wrestling.
Once again, thanks for the feedback. Hour 2 of Smackdown shoud be up sometime tommorow morning.
-
TGC, I like your new format, however, can you please title the matches?? Instead of just going "we cut to the ring where Chad Collyer is waitng......." Me thinks it would be more pleasnat on the eyes if you went "Chad Collyer vs. Rhino.....We cut to the ring where Chad Collyer is waiting......"
I've mentioned this before, I am a HUGE fan of the Florida independent scene, and like where you are going with Jerrelle Clark. When you said a black man helped Waltman, I was really hoping for "The Black Nature Boy" Scoot Andrews, but Vordell Walker will do.
YES!!!!!! Brad Armstrong is back!!!!!!! I always felt he was the most talented, yet underrated Armstrong(James). Just don't turn him into Badstreet. Push Brad to the moon!!!!!!!
I see the new flock(Cassidy and Batts) helping Raven when at BFG.
