November 11, 2012
Written by: Mr. V of Wrestleview.com
Introduction
Happy Veteran’s Day! Thank you for all your service.
Hello everyone and welcome to the latest edition of Predictions from the Faculty! This time, we will predict the outcomes for TNA Turning Point. The show will be held live inside the Impact Zone in Orlando, FL.
No need for the rundown. As of now we know that if you, the reader, finish in the top 3 overall (from TNA Against All Odds 2012 – Royal Rumble 2013) they get a prize. Here are the standings for the Wrestleview staff and readers.
The 2012-2013 Wrestleview Staff Standings (As of WWE Hell in a Cell)
1) Evan O’Brien (WV International Desk)………………………………………………88-37 (4-2)
2) Nick Gray (Independent Roundtable Host)………………………………………87-38 (4-2)
3) David Stephens (WWE Raw Recaps/Teacher’s Lounge)……………………87-38 (4-2)
4) Anthony Valvo (From the Desk of Mr. V/Teacher’s Lounge)……………85-40 (4-2)
5) Wrestleview Readers…………………………………………………………………………82-43 (4-2)
6) Josh Boutwell (Impact Recaps/Viva La Raza)…………………………………81-39 (4-2)
7) Greg McNeish (WV International Desk/WV Telemundo)……………………80-37 (5-1)
8) Darragh O’Connor (WV International Desk)…………………………………….78-47 (2-4)
9) Jason Namako (ROH/WWE Superstars recaps/Ind. Round. Host)……77-48 (3-3)
10) Matt O’Brien (Notes from the Nosebleeds/WV Polls)…………………………76-40 (2-4)
11) Gregory “Grash” Walek (WWE NXT Recapper)…………………………………76-49 (2-4)
12) Jose Marrero (Wrestling Rumblings/Eye Gouge)………………………………33-15 (NR)
13) Mike Tedesco (WWE Smackdown Recapper/WV Telemundo)……………31-9 (NR)
14) Rocky Jimenez (WWE Saturday Morning Slam Recapper)…………………13-6 (4-2)
All matches counted that were announced on the card prior to the Hell in the Cell PPV.
Out of the Staff, Greg McNeish went 5-1 to score the best mark for Hell in a Cell.
There will be NO Students of the Week. Due to my work schedule, I forgot to send the Turning Point card to the Students of the Week, therefore Shane Bradley, Jeremy Samples, Rocky Dominguez, Sam Newstone, and Damon Clark have all clinched a spot as a Student of the Week for WWE Survivor Series.
We had 20 different sets of predictions and the average wins predicted were 3.8. So based on estimation I had them scored 4-2 for WWE Hell in a Cell.
The Top Five Readers in the Wrestleview Readers Standings
(as of WWE Hell in a Cell)
1) James Lacerenza…………………………………..87-29 (4-2)
2) Wade Bradford………………………………………85-31 (4-2)
3) Jordan Benterman………………………………..84-32 (4-2) (2011 Winner)
4) Robert Downing……………………………………83-33 (4-2)
5) Damon Clark………………………………………..83-33 (5-1)
6) Steven Horsecroft…………………………………78-32 (5-3)
As of Press time, I have yet to receive picks from Nick Gray, Grash, Jose Marrero, Mike Tedesco, and Rocky Jimenez. Until I get their picks, there picks are “N/A”.
Evan O. – DOC.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – DOC.
Anthony V. – DOC. Again, I won’t go against Aces and Eights. TNA booked them too strong.

Greg M. – JOSEPH PARK.
Darragh O. – DOC.
Jason N. – DOC.
Matt O. – JOSEPH PARK.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.

Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: DOC 6-2
Evan O. – TARA AND JESSE.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – TARA AND JESSE.
Anthony V. – TARA AND JESSE. On behalf from The Desk of Mr. V, I will miss you Eric Young. Now go catch some fish. Also, make sure ODB gets that chicken.
Josh B. – TARA & JESSE.
Greg M. – TARA & JESSE.
Darragh O. – TARA AND JESSE.
Jason N. – TARA AND JESSE.
Matt O. – TARA AND JESSE.
Grash – N/A.

Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: TARA AND JESSE 8-0
Evan O. – SAMOA JOE.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – SAMOA JOE.
Anthony V. – JOE. This could be a dark horse Match of the Night. Both work well together, but I am going to give the nod to Samoa Joe in this No DQ match.
Josh B. – JOE.
Greg M. – SAMOA JOE.
Darragh O. – SAMOA JOE.
Jason N. – MAGNUS.
Matt O. – MAGNUS.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: SAMOA JOE 6-2
Evan O. – RVD.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – ROB VAN DAM.
Anthony V. – RVD. Again, it is too soon for Ryan to win the title and Van Dam to lose the title.
Josh B. – RVD (for the love of God please).
Greg M. – RVD.
Darragh O. – JOEY RYAN.
Jason N. – JOEY RYAN.
Matt O. – RVD.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: RVD 6-2
Evan O. – CHAVO AND HERNANDEZ.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – CHAVO GUERRERO AND HERNANDEZ.
Anthony V. – CHAVO AND HERNANDEZ. It is a coin-toss, but say give Chavo and Super Mex another few weeks with the tag titles.
Josh B. – DANIELS & KAZ.
Greg M. – CHAVO & HERNANDEZ.
Darragh O. – CHAVO GUERRERO JR. AND HERNANDEZ.
Jason N. – CHRISTOPHER DANIELS AND KAZARIAN.
Matt O. – CHAVO AND HERNANDEZ.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: CHAVO AND HERNANDEZ 7-1
Evan O. – KURT ANGLE.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – KURT ANGLE.
Anthony V. – DEVON. Right now, I am not going against Aces and Eights. The only way Angle wins is by DQ.
Josh B. – ANGLE.
Greg M. – DEVON.
Darragh O. – KURT ANGLE.
Jason N. – DEVON.
Matt O. – DEVON.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: TIED 4-4
Evan O. – AJ STYLES.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – AJ STYLES.
Anthony V. – BOBBY ROODE. I think it just makes sense to give him another World Title shot. As for who he will pin, it might as well be Styles, who really fell flat in 2012 for some reason.
Josh B. – STYLES over Storm.
Greg M. – BOBBY ROODE.
Darragh O. – AJ STYLES.
Jason N. – JAMES STORM.
Matt O. – AJ STYLES.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: FIVE Wrestleview Staff members pick AJ STYLES. TWO picked Roode and ONE picked Storm.
Evan O. – JEFF HARDY.
Nick G. – N/A.
David S. – JEFF HARDY.
Anthony V. – HARDY. I think this can be a show-stealer. Hardy just won the title and while Aries will give it everything he will not regain the title just yet.
Josh B. – HARDY.
Greg M. – JEFF HARDY.
Darragh O. – JEFF HARDY.
Jason N. – AUSTIN ARIES.
Matt O. – JEFF HARDY.
Grash – N/A.
Jose M. – N/A.
Mike T. – N/A.
Rocky J. – N/A.
CONSENSUS: HARDY 7-1.
