TNA TV Champion AJ Styles vs Doug WIlliams - TNA Final Resolution 2010

 

Lets celebrate AJ Styles ascension to the top of the pro wrestling industry by going back to the lost years. I watched TNA pretty religiously from 2005-2010 pretty much after AJ 's World Title loss to RVD I stopped following. There seemed to be a weird feud with ECW wrestlers in the fall of 2010 so I am skipping that. This seemed like a fun random midcard match against a guy who I thought was pretty decent.

 

Excellent AJ offensive performance. Normally I don't care about execution, but when you are so freaking good at as AJ it is noticeable and boosts the match. Normally don't like the Quebrada into the Scorpion Deathdrop, but damn did look pretty and impactful here. There was a great quebrada onto Williams while he was hung up in the ropes and TWO fucking phenomenal punches. Got a call a spade here, AJ sucked as a heel here. Story going into the match was Williams turned on AJ's group to go babyface. Did not feel that fire between these two. It was a good clean mutual respect type match, but not what the story dictated so it left me cold. Good beginning chain wrestling each teasing their finish. Showed both men came to win. Thought Williams while good was a very cold worker. Just mechanical. Thought his shine was just routine. AJ's heat transition was just yanking him off the top rope. AJ's heat segment, which he is great at now just felt routine. Knee work was good into the figure-4 (Flair was his mentor at this point), but ultimately goes nowhere. Liked the finish a lot AJ tries to use his high flying to win by diving to outside, but gets caught in Chaos Theory on the outside and once he gets in he is limp and prone and Williams adds insult to injury by using Styles Clash.

 

There is good stuff in here. Just nothing all that remarkable. Good. ***
