So TNA baited & switched The Wolves AGAIN on the taped show. No Wolves match.

But they did do Samoa Joe vs Spud, and a long talking segment with BroMans, Eric Young, & Abyss

She's awesome.

I feel like that one guy everybody has at their job who started watching Breaking Bad during the final season.

"Guys, have you seen this Breaking Bad program? It's really good!"

And the 2nd main event with heavy interference.

Shut it down and burn the whole thing down. It's a fucking joke of a wrestling company. Embarrassing.

Yeah, I understand Magnus is a heel, but they've established that he isn't to be takes seriously already and I thought the idea was to build a hot new young star.

This is likely culminating in Jeff Hardy returning to "right the wrongs in TNA" following the UK Tour that he is unable to participate in, and win the title again.

The only good thing about TNA is Madison Rayne.

Does anyone get the feeling that Vince is loving the Trollback gimmick and trying to make this into a modern day "Loose Cannon" deal?

Actually he has a ton of heat right now for the tone of some of the twitter stuff, and for going into business for himself with the Lillian Garcia horse comment.

Apparently only high level executives like Vince & Trips are allowed to humiliate and essentially harrass Garcia on live TV, all because she had the fucking audacity to leave the business on her own for a few years when she got married. That bitch. The nerve.

Which is kinda what I'm saying. We all know how much Vince loves Ryback, and I wouldn't put it past him to start this gimmick back again, and more than likely, only he and H's would know about it. They would have the same response to his tweets either way, so that's why I'm asking.

Their problem, they never realized they should have gone any kind of unique route. Fuck Vince. No sense in being WWE lite...all that Panda money down the drain.....10+ years in business and they're no more better off than they were 10 years ago aside from having Spike.

But shit, nothing that hasnt been said a trillion times by now.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

TNA was never better than when they were featuring Joe/Angle and Joe/Daniels/Styles...you had a six-sided ring, MMA infused main event quality matches and/or high flying X-Division type matches. They had a small blip on the radar in 2012 where a run with a 5'8" wrestler that was damn good, too.

Basically, TNA's best work has always been done when they did something the WWE wouldn't have done at the time.

Now, by 2014, the WWE has embraced the MMA-infused matches and are featuring a 5'9" wrestler.



It baffles me why the still go back to WWE-lite stuff. Such an inferiority complex.

[s@ppisgod]

I don't even know if it's an inferiority complex. I'm honestly not sure how many people walked through the door not named Cornette or D'Amore who actually knew they could be anything more. People like Dixie or Russo view WWE as what wrestling is, and they try to make their own version of it because they're not sharp enough to look at it from another point of view.
