Dirk Ziggler is terrible.

Chinlock. Reverse chinlock. FULL NELSON. Chinlock. Make silly faces. Chinlock. FULL NELSON.

This guy is like Randy Ortonbot, the sequel.

No wonder the E is pushing him, he works the same boring resthold style as all the other top guys.

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH! No one talks bad about Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler is awesome.

Arn looked 40 when he was 20.

Arn looked 40 when he was 30.

Arn looked 40 when he was 40.

Arn looked 40 when he was 50.

Arn will look 40 when he's 60.

Arn would have never gone anywhere in today's scene, despite being a superlative promo guy and better than average worker. He isnt 6'4" 250, he was seemingly going bald from birth, and he dosen't have the TV look that Vince has conditioned his audience to accept as what a pro wrestler should look like.

The best comparison for Arn in this era would be Nick "Eugene" Dinsmore, or more obvious, CW Anderson.

I agree, Arn wouldn't have gotten over in this era of wrestling.

Wrestling back in the 70's and 80's was a completely different world then today's era. No one today even promos like Arn because there isn't a situation for it on televised wrestling shows. That format died a long time ago.

They took the belt away from Punk again? Does WWE change titles just for the sake of doing it?

[Warner2BruceTD]

Yeah were no ROH but were as close as you get in this State, im hearing rumblings about some guys running Dallas that seem to have the right idea. we will see were that goes.

DGUSA in Houston would be sexy time. we will see

DGUSA has an office in Houston.

It would seem to make sense to come here, but you would know better than me...can they draw at least 500+ in this market?

You gotta fool the marks.

Because, you know, booking to fool the 1% of your audience that will "get it" worked so well for WCW from 1999 on.

Question for those watching TNA...

WTF is Taz doing there? Is he wrestling? If he is...I might have to tune in...<3 Taz.

Why is Samoa Joe in the Main Event Mafia, and is now like the nWo where everyone joins in regardless of their affiliation? Last I checked, Joe handed the belt to Angle, but Joe hates Angle's guts. Is this an inside job for Joe?

Any other updates on anything worth a damn in TNA.

YouTube - Jeff Jarrett - With My Baby Tonight

Anyone remember this and the angle behind it? It actually being "The Roadie" Aka Road Dogg aka Kip James. Awesome song..

I remember that Jeff Jarrett was coming back, saying he was a star in Nashville while he was just another Milli Vanilli rip-off.

Motherfuckin' "The Road Dogg" Jesse James sung that shit yo. :D

After seeing Big Show come out tonight as Chris Jericho's new partner/co-champion in crime, I was happy for him.

Finally, something for him to do.

...but that XXXXL Women's One-Piece Swimsuit they got him wearing has got to go... stick to the black, one-strap like your Daddy Andre had man. :D

It doesn't look like Taz is there to wrestle. Don't know if he can, physically, at this point. He's more of a manager/adviser/mentor deal. Not that much different from what TNA did with Joe and Nash an entire year ago...

I don't think - from what I've seen - that Joe actually joined the Mafia. I think he's more of a "paid associate".

To be honest, there is nothing interesting right now. They have the Mafia with basically all the belts right now. The MEM are dominating. Which really doesn't seem where this story should be after close to a year. The "Originals" are doing nothing. No new stars have been made. Its still the same old men dominating the roster as a year ago, for the most part. Fucking stupid.

You were the only one.

Everyone groaned when he came out, and it really killed the crowd for the rest of the night.

Big Show needs to go away. He's lost so many times and been booked so badly over the years, that his GIANT aura has long since been destroyed. And really, what else have you got when you're a 7 foot tall stiff who can barely move? Once that aura is gone, you're essentially useless.

The spot should have went to a young guy who could use the Jericho rub. This is a company desperate for stars, and they could have created one....I would have had either Miz, Zack Ryder, or Dirk "resthold" Ziggler in that spot. At least try to make a star.

Taz came out and said his injuries prohibited him from doing what he loves the most, wrestle for you guys (fans). Rumors are circulating that Don West is scared for his job, that Taz was brought in to commentate after his time with MEM and Joe is done. But Mick Foley said he wouldnt wrestle again and he wrestles nearly every week.

But i think MEM is pretty cool, Bobby Lashley finally made his official debut and it looks like hes gonna be MEMs main enemy, which i dont have a problem with. Another Rumor is that Joe joined MEM to eventually turn on em.

Anyway im enjoying it.
