Movie Reviews of TNA: Ultimate Matches (2 Disc Set)Movie Review: Truly Ultimate matches. Summary: 5 Stars
-TNA ultimate matches review-
I hear people going that these matches have been released on dvds too many times. Thats true. But for a newer TNA fan, this is the perfect choice to be introduced to the ULTIMATENESS of TNA's best matches. Lets start match by match. (BTW, this is my review and these are my thoughts. Respect them)
King of the mountain- A reverse ladder match.
Slammiversary 2006 Jarret vs Christian vs R-Truth vs Abyss vs Sting
This match was an OK king of the mountain. In my opinion the worst. It just felt like a normal match with a few ladder spots. There wasnt good flow to this match. Not much breathtaking spots. And again another screwjob victory. It was disappointing for me even though its still there to watch. 7/10
Slammiversary 2007 Angle vs Christian vs Styles vs Joe vs Harris
Now we are talking. This was a great display of king of the mountain. Some great spots using the ladder by all men. Christian and AJ break up during the match. Great rhythm and pace and it all flowed out. And the winner deserved it more than all. A definite watch. 8.5/10
Slammiversary 2008 Joe vs Booker vs Christian vs Roode vs Rhino
Overall, this was more like a 5 way dance as oppossed to the previous KOTM matches that came off like a ladder match as there wasn't as many spots as the previous ones & there wasn't much of a story told here as everyone, with the exception of Booker T, qualified towards the end of the match before the finish happened with Samoa Joe becoming the first champion to retain his championship in the KOTM match. This match was a solid performance. A watch though. 7.5/10
ULTIMATE X- Highflying match with cables hung up high and in the middle is the prize. Wrestlers have to get the prize.
Final resolution 2005 Styles vs Petey Williams vs Sabin
Oh Em Gee! Literally. This match was mindblowing. Fast paced, great rhythmed, great flow, extremely fluent and sick spots make this the best match on this DVD. Just absolutely WOW. The spots they pull off here are not known the human eye. Basically a spotfest but with 100% high attributes for a great match. A must watch. 10/10
Destination X 2005 R-Truth & Daniels vs Skipper & Styles
This was first a tag match, then triple threat, then the ultimate X. Was a pretty long match. some spots weren't even performed correctly or were unfluent. It was still entertaining as these matches NEVER get boring. watch. 8/10
No Surrender 2006
NWA World Tag Team Championship Match
Christopher Daniels & AJ Styles vs. LAX, Homicide & Hernandez (C) with Konnan
This is one of the Ultimate X matches to include a ladder for extra mayhem, but it's considered bad form to actually use the ladder to take down the belts. It's incredible that a huge power wrestler like Hernandez could be so good at climbing those towers and navigating the cables; instead of taking away from the concept the way other big men have, Super Mex adds to it. AJ puts gives Homicide a Styles Clash through a table, but the real high point of this match is Daniels' unbelievable flying leap across the cables to land at the center and take down the belts and regain the titles. Did I mention that Christopher Daniels is the King of Ultimate X? 9.5/10
Victory Road 2007
Gauntlet Match
Christopher Daniels
vs. Jay Lethal
vs. Frankie Kazarian
vs. Homicide
vs. Sonjay Dutt
vs. Shark Boy
vs. Elix Skipper
vs. Puma
vs. Senshi
vs. Petey Williams
This is to determine the #1 contender for the X Division Championship. It starts off as a battle royal with wrestlers entering one at a time. Once everyone has entered, the wrestlers who are left go to a regular Ultimate X match. This time, they also have steel structures crossing above the ring instead of the cables. One high point is when Daniels, Lethal, Senshi and Kaz all reach the center of the overhead structure at the same time, only to be pulled down by the wrestlers left on the mat. A match like this illustrates the great versatility of the Ultimate X. Daniels wins his 4th Ultimate X match. This match throughout was entertaining and had huge spots and great highflyin. Watch. 9/10
Bound for Glory 2007
Tag Team Match
Triple X, Senshi & Elix Skipper vs. LAX, Homicide & Hernandez
The winners get a shot at the TNA Tag Team Championship. Elix Skipper and Senshi got a chance to shine here, and they took full advantage of it. Was a pretty decent match actually with some good spots throughout. Funny how senshi kept getting knocked out and distorted by the power of hernandez. 8.5/10
Steel Cage- 6 sided ring surrounded by a solid, unmovable, destructive cage that tears your flesh.
Turning Point 2004
Tag Team Match
Triple X, Christopher Daniels & Elix Skipper
vs.
America's Most Wanted, James Storm & Chris Harris
This was the brutal and bloody culmination of the feud between these two great tag teams. Both teams gave their all in a match that included leaps and suplexes from the top of the cage and had the crowd chanting, "Best match ever!" but AMW handcuffed Daniels to the cage, and Triple X lost and had to break up forever. One the best matches in TNA history. The first cage match included spots, rhythm, flow, pace and great tag team extreme moves. Watch. 10/10
Lockdown 2005
AJ Styles
vs
Abyss
The winner got a shot at the Heavyweight Title. AJ started off this violent, gory battle by flip diving out of the cage door onto Abyss before the monster could get into the cage. They brawled all around ringside and up the stairs through the crowd before finally getting into the cage. AJ pitted his skill, agility and courage against the monster's brawn and lust for blood and came out the winner with a sunset flip power bomb off the top of the cage and into a pile of tacks. brutal. Watch. 9.5/10
Lockdown 2006
NWA World Heavyweight Championship
Christian Cage (C)
vs.
Abyss with James Mitchell
I loved this match. Better than the AJ styles match. This match was just extreme. Many spots inside and outside the cage. Boy can christian make a great match whenever he wants! Cage figuratively owned the cage. Extremely brutal. watch. 9.75/10
Full Metal Mayhem- TNA's version of TLC except all metal is eligible. That includes chains, tacks, etc.
Against All Odds 2005
Jeff Hardy
vs.
Abyss
As you'd expect with Jeff Hardy, this match featured some wild and crazy action and insane falls through tables. More like a spotfest but an enjoyable one. watch. 8/10
Sacrifice 2006
NWA World Heavyweight Championship
Christian Cage (C)
vs.
Abyss
Creative use of the tables, ladders, and chairs sets this match apart from the usual hardcore brawls, and James Mitchell took a slam into a pile of tacks to give Christian an extra measure of revenge. This match was nice. A bit slow at times but the spots and the tradionalism of the TLC match is represented in full. great match. Watch. 9/10
Monsters Ball- TNA's most hardcore match. wrestlers are put in a lifeless box for 24 hours until this match with no food and water so the concept is they'll be more vicious and crazy. And that is usually the case. Anything can happen.
Bound for Glory 2005
Rhino
vs. Abyss with James Mitchell
vs. Sabu
vs. Jeff Hardy
A trash can full of weapons plus tables, ladders, chairs, tacks, and steel chains all came into play in this maniacal masterpiece. Fans of hard core will love this brawl. Just extreme, brutal, hardcore, flattening, breathtaking, fast-paced, etc. Dont blink because you've missed a hardcore spot. A piece of art this one. My favorite hardcore match this decade. 10/10
Bound for Glory 2006
Abyss with James Mitchell
vs. Samoa Joe
vs. Brother Runt
vs. Raven
Special Guest Referee Jake "The Snake" Roberts, with his snake
I didn't like this one much. The spots just felt not flowing. They didnt have much breathtaking, spot risking superstars who couldn't make this one a classic. Still a fun match and recommended for hardcore fans. 7.5/10
Ladder Match- The Ladder Match. Who possibly doesn't know? You climb the ladder and win the prize. Simple? Dont think so. Wait till you watch.
Genesis 2007
Fight for the Right Tournament Final
Ladder Match
Christian Cage
vs.
Frankie "Kaz" Kazarian
What a perfect choice to close the dvd! Two of the best but least credited wrestlers in TNA put on a phenomenal bout that had the fans on their feet and cheering throughout. They used the ladders to great advantage in this high flying, acrobatic, yet ultra violent contest.
I enjoyed this dvd very much. It's a great choice for fans of TNA, fans of extreme, and fans of the high flyers. If you've never seen TNA, it's also a good way to find out what's so different between TNA and the competition. Just extreme and brutal. Faced paced and great flow. Spots are unbelievably insane and left my jaw dropped. Literally. no joke. watch. 10/10
So this brings the end to this TNA Ultimate Matches 2-disc DVD set. A one i rather enjoyed VERY MUCH being a newer fan to TNA and a more extreme type fan. I recommended to all unless you've seen most of these matches. These matches are 10 star worthy and so is this DVD. ENJOY!!!
