The General Wrestling Thread

[Kuzzy Powers]

Atleast Kane has been a pretty steady contributor for about 15 years, his time off during that time is nothing compared Big Show's. I cant argue the god awful storylines tho...

I wonder if Dixie truly believes the problem with TNA's personnel was because they only have one show, not multiple ones like their "competitor"

[JimLeavy59]

Hulk Hogan thinks TNA needs unlimited backing, honestly TNA needs to actually scout for talent and get rid of guys like Hogan. Impact should should not feel like WWE-lite. I mean shit Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Roderick Strong, Kevin Steen, Adam Cole, and Mike Bennett should be on the TNA roster not guys like Jay Bradley, Gunner, and these fucking MMA guys. Impacts goal should to as different from the WWE as humanly possible.

The people who own the money already looked at the books and realized they shouldn't be spending what they do on talent...Hogan just wants the company to filter in money so he can get some more of it. Hogan's agenda in TNA has always been crystal clear.

History repeated with WCW. Only Dixie's parents are playing the part of Ted Turner. But who will play the parts of Eric Bischoff, Hogan, and Nash?

We've already discussed to the point of a beaten, dead horse, as those guys make as much, if not more money booking themselves in ROH and other organizations then they would in TNA on an entry-level (or similar) deal. In a sense, Hogan is right, they need to make a better incentive for the top indie guys to come to TNA, not just wait for the WWE to come calling.

Going back a little.

Stephanie's promo with Big Show *really* bugged me. She started talking about seeing him when she was young, and how he was great to her when she was a little girl, etc.

Dude, he's *4* years older than she is. He didn't sign with the WWE until she was 23. If she was sitting on his lap then, then more than just "mentoring" was going on.

They easily could if Dixie wasn't such a mark and got rid of Sting, Hogan, Bischoff, Angle, Kennedy, and Jeff Hardy. Getting rid of those contracts would easily free up money.

Hogan has zero interest bringing in top Indie talent.

Guess I'll have to DVR Raw. I work every Monday night, and usually don't miss much. But Edge is the shit, and I can't pass up seeing the guy the two times a year he's on. Too entertaining.

Sami Zayn debuts on main WWE roster:

I hope his TV debut is in a strong indie market and he gets the Ole chants. Curious what Vince will tell Cole to say.
