A dark match held at last week's TNA Impact tapings that featured Shannon Moore and Christina Von Eerie vs. Okada and Cookie (a/k/a Becky Bayless) was dubbed "the worst dark match in history" by several people backstage.

Most of the blame for the match is directed at Bayless, who missed blind tag attempts three times. It was so comically bad that Moore stopped, pointed at her, and yelled, "I'm begging you to tag him" during the middle of a spot. This led to serious laughter backstage.

Powell's POV: Bayless matches are now considered must see entertainment for several people in the company. Although there was a lot of laughter over the match, there was also some frustration in the locker room over the decision to hire Bayless prior to her lousy performance.

That said, she is playing a Jersey Shore inspired role, so it's possible they could limit her to a valet role if there is serious concern over her in-ring work. For what it's worth, I always thought Bayless showed a lot of charisma in Ring of Honor.

Dot Net members received the first look at this news on Friday. The members are currently reading a story about a wrestler who was in the meeting in which Vince McMahon mentioned in a Boston Herald interview in which he told wrestlers he was looking for wrestlers who wanted to grab the brass ring.
