Impact should be a UK promotion.

This Rockstar Spud character is ridiculously ridiculous.

Spud, ECIII, Austin Aries, Bad Influence.

The rest is utter shit.

Perhaps there is something to this new BroMans incarnation with DJ Zema as well. Can't forget the Wolves. They look good in black suits.

Also, is Davey SHORTER than Rockstar Spud? Isn't Rockstar Spud a legit 5'4"?

It would be nice if the Wolves would ever wrestle.

Zema makes that act. He really is great.

Whatever happened to the Wolves coming in and squashing the Bromans in their first match to win the titles?

Wasn't that in the cards? They turn them into MVP's muscle?

Something about the commission in whatever state they were in two weeks ago.

Also, forgot about SAM SHAW and his Pat Bateman/Dexter Morgan hybrid. I love that too.

I gotta see this.

I gotta see this.

Yeah, he's totally gonna kidnap, rape, murder, and eat Christie Hemme. He has a shrine and everything.

A couple of weeks ago, they had SIMON DIAMOND bump into him in some dimly lit back room. So Diamond is all like "Oh hey Sam, you're looking good, I see big things in your future!"

Shaw is standing there in his Dexter Morgan kill outfit (long sleeve pullover, gloves, etc), and as soon as Diamond turns around to leave, he knocks him out cold and presumably kills him or something.

It's legit awesome.

:dead:

So ridiculous.

This Rockstar Spud character though...a revelation.

Shitty dialogue is different than saying "Hey the product you're currently watching, investing time in and possibly paying money for isn't worth shit but I'M (mystery investor, new commissioner, returning star, etc.) am going to make it better!"

It may be a chicken and egg scenario but companies on their death bed do this. Look, in 1996 Bret Hart didn't come out and say "Now we are getting our asses kicked in the ratings right now but I'm the new World Wrestling Federation Champion and I'm going to get us back to the top". It would've seemed insane, there's a self-confidence that comes with your company. I think that would've made a lot more people look around and go "Wait, is this company dying, should I stop being so invested?" Remember back in that age, if you weren't an Observer subscriber you had no idea they were in the financial shits. They were days away from shutting down in 1996, taking out loans left and right but the announcers, wrestlers and the general tone of the product was "This is the best product out there."

Ring of Honor didn't have AJ Styles come out and say "Roderick Strong, this guy sucks, I'm back to bring ROH back to when it actually meant something in the early 2000s". That dialogue does absolutely nothing but hurt you and your company.

I'm not saying it's the right thing to do, but at the same time, TNA is shit regardless of whether or not they acknowledge it on the air. They shouldn't, and all it is is a nod to the smarks that are tearing them up even more than anyone else. But we've been lambasting them herefor better than a year now, like many other places. Is saying that they've sucked any different than having Samoa Joe kidnapped by ninjas? Both tell me to stop wasting my time watching, they're just more dead now than they were then. It's a wrestling faux pa, but they're no better or worse than they were yesterday. It's still on par with whatever shit-show they put on last week.

Someone went to the Shane McMahon school of safe strikes...

TNA sure did make a big deal out of the worst kept secret in wrestling, mid carder 4lyfe MVP.

 

[EmpireWF]

If KENTA does end up in WWE and we can get another Bryan/KENTA match:

 

[s@ppisgod]

One of these days, TNA will make a big deal out of a wrestler who came from WWE and it'll get your attention and make a difference in the ratings.....






Or not, you know, whatever.

The Wolves are a bigger deal for them than MVP is.

That's always an issue with bringing in the outsiders. You have to make them matter more than "WOAH THEY CAME FROM THE MORE IMPORTANT COMPANY! YOU REMEMBER HIM, RIGHT?!"

It's another part of the inferiority complex.

 

[Ravin]

Just watched the video of MVP coming out, and wow that pop was just .... huge?

I know the crowd wasn't huge, but it seemed more like the sound you hear when everyone is trying to exit the building.

And Dixie in that segment seemed like a very bad Vickie rip off.

WWE

I am sorry for having you all confused over the various information about my visit in the US.

As a matter of fact, I am in the States and joining the WWE training. But as for now, it’s not about getting a tryout or a contact.

It is indeed true that I have always been yearning for a spot in WWE, and I’ve always wanted to give it a try sometime. After all, you only live once. “I should have given it a try.” “I should have chosen another way.” I’ve had those regrets when I was in my middle and high school, and even after I got in to this business. I just did not want to regret later about something I haven’t tried, so I used my time off to participate in the WWE workout. The executives were at the workout, so perhaps I may have left a mark.

The place is full of competition and hungry guys. It’s not as simple as being good at Puroresu or having strength. There are so many guys with monster physique and guys who are way athletically superior to me. And even they don’t get into the big league. That’s how tough this place could be. I can easily imagine that surviving in this environment could be severe. And spending a few days in that environment became a really good experience for me.

I’m sorry to have caused the confusion, but one thing I can say for sure is that “I’m glad I came”. I would like to work even harder making use of this experience.

And lastly, I would like to thank President Taue for letting me take this chance.


KENTA

He just went over there to work out, guys.

Sure sounds like he left without a deal, and is saving face with the NOAH fans. Of course he wanted a deal.

EDIT - Now that I read it again, I think he is saying he tired to get in. I don't know. Now I know why wars start so easily. These translations are impossible to decipher.
