Two women in a hardcore situation, selling the story till the end. That was a stunning bout. The Knockouts made the show, were the show, because the rest of the episode was not as great.

I can&#8217;t wait to see what Mustafa Ali has in mind.<\/p>\n<p>And the TNA Young Blood&#8230; Ricky Sosa capitalized on what Leon Slater gave to the match, which means 200%. I say it again: When Leon Slater has proven that he is the future of the sport, Ricky Sosa has EVERYTHING to prove. Nothing makes me think that Sosa could become the future of the company. Leon Slater has already proved it again and again. The future of TNA is far from what the company wants to make us think.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s all for the TNA Thursday Night iMPACT review of the week.
