TNA Says:
In addition, the Knockouts Championship will be on the line as Mickie James defends against ODB! Will Mickie continue her domination of the Knockouts Division – or will ODB walk out the new champion?
Best Case Scenario: Mickie and ODB’s match tells a story about a hard-working, determined babyface taking on a big-game talking, cheap shot artist heel. ODB comes within a hair’s width of winning the Knockouts Title, but is cut off and rolled up by James.
Worst Case Scenario: ODB wins the Knockouts Title just as the last bit of excitement fades from her push. She goes on to defend the title against… uhh… whoever’s left at Bound For Glory.
Dave Says: Mickie is still playing one of the best characters going in wrestling today, but her “here she is, here she isn’t” infrequent appearances on Impact over the last month or so have hurt her and the Knockouts Title a great deal. When she won the title, it felt like there would be great heat on her reign, but TNA has booked themselves out of a good thing.
