Gimme a break, spitting gum at him is assualt and battery? While it is being an asshole it isnt really assualt.

Who knows the whole story, seems to me there prolly is more to it, like the kid harrassing the ish outta him in the resteraunt when he is trying to eat..

Who knows.

Who knows.

Based on Orton's track record, i'd lean towards thinking he was the instigator.

A few years back, a fan asked for a picture, and he snagged the camera out of his hand and smashed it on the ground.

Let's not forget his treatment of Amy Weber, pouring liquid on her head on a plane, and harrassing her non stop until she quit the company--all because she wouldnt fuck him.

Then you have his habit of shitting in peoples bags. And his incident of smoking weed in front of the media at WM weekend a few years ago.

The list goes on and on. He's a dick.

Rob Feinstein of RFVideo.com has a major documentary in the works on Chris Benoit. The working title is “Chris Benoit: Aftermath” focusing on what his peers think about him in the present day after events unfolded in 2007. Feinstein said: “The film deals with the aftermath of what happened when Chris Benoit committed those horrible acts and how his peers perceived him after those untimely events. Chris went from being considered one of the worlds greatest wrestlers to one of the most despised human beings. You will hear first hand from people that traveled with him, worked with him and people who talked to him only days before the acts took place. This is going to be one of our most emotional DVD’s of all time.”

The breakout tag team of 2009, The Young Bucks, debut on TNA tonight with some goofy new name.

They tore up ROH, Dragon Gate USA, CHIKARA, and PWG last year.

 

[FedEx227]

I was never really impressed with them in ROH. :shrug: maybe I didn't get to see any of their good stuff, but I thought it was pretty mediocre.

Max & Jeremy, Generation Me?

What awful names. TNA sucks.

I can watch Young Buck$ vs. MCMG's all night. Awesome match.

 

[SuperKevin]

I'm still undecided on whether or not I like that pro wrestlers are getting smaller and smaller these days.

This is what I dont get about TNA.

Why use Lethal Consequences to put over Lashley AND Team 3D in the same segment? Why bury two young guys? Bring in a jobber team.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

I actually don't mind the 3D/Nasty Boys feud.

It's something fresh, despite both teams being around literally forever. It's not a bad undercard storyline.

Should be pretty solid, albeit stiff matches between the two

The problem I have with it is that it has no upside. Do Team 3-D need to get over more than they are? Even if it is entertaining - and I haven't found it thus far - its taking TV away from so many other good talented teams who could use the TV time.

What bothers me most about is that the only reason the Nasty Boys are on TV is because they are friends with Hogan. That's it. There's no other reason. They aren't a "legendary" team and they never drew. At all. So its basically Hogan playing his political favoritism again. Which makes me believe that he's still the same Hogan who always put himself and his buddies ahead of the good of the promotion... That does not bode well for TNA.

 

[SuperKevin]

Has Ed Leslie made an appearance on TNA yet?

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Jeff Jarrett isnt alone! He brought Roy Orbison.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Anyone else find the Daniels/Morley promo very entertaining?

 

[Mogriffjr]

Yeah I don't fuck with tna but that daniels morely was pretty good

Samoa Joe vs. Nigel McGuinness. In a throwaway mid card match.

This is very painful for me.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Watching Nigel in TNA rush through 4 minute matches is oddly amusing, as he tries to squeeze in all of his setup spots. I dont know why he bothers.

Gotta love Joe relegated to 4 minute job boy.

I dont get the Pope gimmick. I used to really enjoy Elijah Burke.

Am I the only person, that, at this point, couldn't give a fuck about Joe?

I used to really like Joe, but with his terrible booking to Joe's general lethargy lately, meh...I couldn't care less about Joe.

I'd like to care more...but he doesn't make me care.

Nigel's been poorly booked too.

Now the Pope...I love me the Pope.

We all know they shit the bed with Joe. It's a lost cause.

EDIT: I get the sense that Joe just dosent give a shit anymore. Who can blame him. Nice shorts.

As for Nigel, they do the right thing and put him right in with Angle, but now he's on the midcard road to nowhere. I don't get it.
