After an entertaining main event and a promo from EC3, TNA has put themselves in the driver’s seat for some exciting television over the next few months. They are doing everything right. They are building a monster heel. They are showing sympathy for a young contender who is now going to get such a pop when he returns. They are keeping a living legend in the ring right in the middle of a championship chase. All options are on point and they have plenty to work with involving these guys, Galloway, Bennett and others.
