Didn't go to Impact vs. Lucha (today was a nightmare and going to a show with a three hour wait beforehand wasn't happening). I did however meet a bunch of Impact people at WrestleCon.
James Storm. Met him before at a TNA show. Upon hearing that, he apologized for making me sit through it, which was very similar to what Bully Ray said last year. I did mention that it was the best fan experience I'd ever had for the meet and greets alone and that made him smile.
Impact had its own table, which was completely hidden behind the line to meet Ric Flair. Later on I went over and met:
Matt Sydal. Got to pick up the X Title for a second, which is nowhere near as heavy as the World Title. I mentioned getting to see him take the RKO out of the air live (which you've likely seem) and he didn't remember where it was. It was in Lexington, which he said he should remember since he gets asked about it a lot.
Eli Drake. And we have a winner. Drake was nice, funny, charismatic etc. I asked if he'd call me a dummy and he said he might, but then he just looks at me asking him questions and thinks DUMMY! YEAH! After that he smiled and shook my hand. I mentioned he had been my favorite part of the show for a long time and that seemed to make him happy. Very nice guy.
Also met a bunch of the Knockouts, including Gail Kim (funny in person), So Cal Val (totally not done justice by the camera), Taya (very nice), Brooke (oh my), Allie (TINY in person, to the point where I wasn't sure who she was at first) and Rosemary (in the facepaint but acting normal otherwise. Looks MUCH better with her hair pulled back as you can tell she has a very pretty face) and basically wearing a blouse and underwear didn't hurt).
Odds are I missed someone but the TNA people were all very nice and welcoming.

Is it fucked up that I wish they'd call the team of Bahh, Tyrus, and Justice "Tons of Fun"?

Well Tyrus was part of Tons of Funk in WWE so you're not that far off.

We’re past Impact Wrestling vs. Lucha Underground and that means we need to hit the hard push towards Redemption. Now that being said, there’s the whole fact that Alberto El Patron has been dropped from the main event due to being Alberto. Hopefully they’ve had time to record something to address the situation, as otherwise a big chunk of this show will be a big waste of time. Let’s get to it.

I thought they traversed the Alberto-sized hole rather well. Hilarious, too, that this is the second time in a year he's fucked them like this.

And how long before they bring him back again?
Yeah they did well. I was worried about sitting through a long Alberto vs. Aries build tonight and next week. This was a relief, even on a not great show.

Never, I hope. They've been burned twice now. Learn the lesson.

It’s the go home show for Redemption and I’m really struggling to think of what’s going to be on the card. There’s the three way for the World Title with Austin Aries suddenly needing two more opponents because Alberto El Patron reverted to his high standards of bailing. Other than that though, I’m not sure what there is on the show, save for Scott Steiner getting a pay per view title shot in 2018. Let’s get to it.
