That would make it even worse the fact that he IS a former MMA guy. They'd have a wet dream at the thought of him being a kicking expert.

The noodle commercial is millions o' buys though. Millions.

Talk about being thrown to the wolves, jeez: http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Yuji-Nagata-3422

This is why pro wrestling went into a ten year coma in Japan, while MMA rose, because Inoki kept throwing his guys in there to get murdered. Who wants to watch the guys who got their asses kicked?

"Hey largely untrained guy who we push as tough, go fight prime Fedor & prime Cro Cop. Thanks!"

Yuji Nagata against those guys would be like if they asked CM Punk to fight Lesnar for real. Punk trains BJJ for fun, can probably handle himself well in a barfight, same as Nagata who is a legit tough guy, but they stand no chance versus trained professional fighters.

It took Nagata years to recover in the eyes of fans.

They had Jushin Liger of all people fight Minoru Suzuki when Suzuki was still in his relative prime. LOL. wtf.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Actually thats not even a great comparison. Fedor, Cro Cop, & Suzuki were active at their peaks.

It would be like Cena or Punk fighting Jon Jones or Cain Velasquez.

[FedEx227]

I think Cena could take him you guyz, he beat Ryback.

Cena has great boxing skills have you seen him shadow boxing before a big match dude could take on prime Holyfield.

[FedEx227]

How much does Jon Jones dead lift?

[JimLeavy59]

How has Impact not fired Angle yet? After the third time any company with half a brain would have told him to go to rehab or they would fire him. But TNA is so fucking low grade they can't even do that.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Angle is in rehab.

Free Wrestling Observer audio interview with Joey Ryan

More people recognize him from PWG, LUCHA VA VOOM & Wrestle Society X than they do from TNA.

lololololololol TNA

[Warner2BruceTD]

Holy shit you guys have to listen to this. Gut Check is a total shit show, the talent has no clue what is work or what is shoot. He talks about cutting the promo on Tazz in the ring and Tazz not knowing it was coming and getting pissed, and then having Al Snow yell at him in the back but since a camera was running not knowing whether it was a work or shoot. So he yelled back.

"I was surprised how unproduced it all was for live TV"

wow. again, lol TNA

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Dixie Carter's mom was the one who made the call on all of the cuts.

Like I said before...someone looked at the book that they didn't want looking at the book.

I really really hated this tweet:

Praising that bullshit. Can we at least pretend the fake fight is a semblance of a real athletic contest as opposed to a fake TV show? They use 19 cameras, they don't need to do this all of the fucking time. If anything indies should emphasize this more than WWE does. It comes off so contrived and phony, but you can see the mindset they have when ex-employees spout this shit.

The matches are so much more organic and interesting when they dont take you out of it by doing everything facing the same direction.

"Hey, im in an intense fight right now, but let me make sure the guy trying to kill me is facing this direction before I do this move to him!"

If you've ever seen Jimmy Korderas on "Aftermath" (I HIGHLY doubt it), hes always using this kind of shit as his WIN for the show. Hes really into these nerdy little intricacies of Wrestling production.
