TNA's Really Dumb Street Fight



The 2-25-10 edition of Impact featured the dumbest street fight I've seen, probably ever. Kevin Nash and his buddy Eric Young confronted Scott Hall and Syxx-Pac. Hall and Pac have been "fired" for weeks now but that doesn't stop them from showing up at every show. Ya know I faulted WWE security for letting some random chick backstage on Raw. But apparently TNA security is just as incompetent if they can't keep out two over the hill, out of shape wrestlers.

Anyway the fight starts with Young and Nash approaching Syxx-Pac. I'd like to note that Pac is wearing an outfit that screams "I don't give a shit". After some taunting by Pac, Young charges with fists a flying. The camera goes in tight on the fight until a scream is heard off screen. The camera pans over to show Nash down and Hall holding a pipe. Thank goodness TNA didn't show Nash getting hit. That would have been, I don't know, INTERESTING!

Hall stumbles over to help Pac but not before Young nails Pac in the head with an air tank looking thing. The tank makes a nice hallow sound when it smacks the ground. This leads me to think the tank hurts about as much as a freaking pool noodle.

Hall nails Young with a series of punches that just seem halfhearted. He tosses in a chop for...variety I guess? He gets up in Young's face and starts talking about staying out of "family business". Pac delivers a round house kick to Young which surprises me. Not because it's impressive, but because it's the closet thing this fight has had to a wrestling move.

With Young down, Pac walks over and picks up a spray can. Oh dear. I know what's coming. Why? Honestly? I know that "The Band" is supposed to be the nWo. But does TNA really need to rip off every single nWo trademark. How about some freaking originality. Pac attempts to write "4-Life" on Young's back. I say attempts because he makes the "4" ginormous and thus has to squeeze the "Life" into a small area. As the tagging takes place Hall exclaims "just like the old days." Thanks Scott, I haven't had my intelligence insulted enough while watching this show.

Hall and Pac walk off screen and this segment mercifully comes to an end.
