Thanks for reading everyone, I hope you had a great time. My thoughts on Destination X are a good showing for the X-Division, who should all be featured on a much wider scale. Hopefully after tonight, they will be as each have the potential to be compelling characters of their own. I am very thankful for not seeing Awesome Kong in lingerie, and for two very solid matches to bookend the show. I know I missed a move or two, but that makes two solid shows for TNA since moving to Wednesdays. TNA and Ring of Honor are making a very fun night for us wrestling fans. Thank you once again, stay tune for Larry Csonka’s review and sound off, I hope to see you all next week.
