wwe vs tnt anyone watching?

[Defcon]

^His reasoning is ridicilous if you keep in mind how many shitty and embarassing angles he had in WCW. And to be honest, being associated with TNA is far worse than anything Vince could do to him IMO.

I think it's simple ego. He's a decent wrestler whose only claim to uniqueness is that he is the only major player of the Monday Night Wars who has never worked for WWF/E. So why should he throw that away?

 

[Admiral_Young]

Yeah that's why I'm baffled with that decision. TNA basically guaranteed him another World Title reign and that's all well and good but what does it matter if no one watches you or cares? Vince would have done justice by Steve I think and I agree ego and fear of the unknown probably played into his decision. He's been with one company (TNA is basically still run by the same folks who run WCW creative with maybe one or two or three new people) and maybe is scared about how WWE would use him. I think that Vince would push him big time. He's one of those ICONS in the business. I don't think his concerns have much warrant. He's fucking STING not DDP or fucking Booker T with all due respect to those two. Sting is something different entirely.

Now instead he continues to work for a company that clearly dosen't get what good and entertaining television is and is working him towards another fucking match against Hulk Hogan!!! WTF?

karen momment on tna is most assuredly a botchamania momment. I mean she screamed that really loud. and any idea who kurt's mistress is? as far as sting goes I just don't think he trust vince no matter what. look at how many people from wcw are still on wwe what rey and booker t I thnk that's it. and did mr.anderson call hulk jor el?

 

[Admiral_Young]

No once again timothy you seem to fail to understand what constitutes a botch. Something that is done on purpose or said on purpose on television is not a botch. Karen swearing and beeing bleeped is not a botch. That was part of the sketch. It would have been a botch had she had a wardrobe malfunction.

You know what...after thinking about it, Maffew might just have Karen on for the fun of it.

Spoiler: smackdown tag match champion ship's on the line

Spoiler: intercontinal championship

wade b. vs K. kingston and the winner is wade b.

 

[Admiral_Young]

Del Rio is awesome. Edge is awesomer. That new Botchamania was the best one in weeks!!! The botched Hogan blading had me laughing my ass off. Kurt is gonna get his neck broken again...Jeff slamming him on his neck there. The ending though with Goku and Jericho's music...awesome.

Styles is easily my favorite TNA wrestler. Typically I find him more entertaining that some of the guys he always seems to be putting over.

The theme music in general (TNA and WWE) is pretty crappy. Undertaker getting Johnny Cash's "Ain't No Grave" was one of the better (maybe a little obvious, but who cares if it works?) calls WWE made for music. TNA is even worse, but WWE isn't too far behind for music that just doesn't seem to have any energy behind it. Randy Orton is a good example. That song damn near puts me to sleep every single time.

I respect Sting's position (even though I've never been a huge fan of his, I've certainly admired some of his great matches against guys like Flair, Ric Rude and Vader), but I think WWE would have been the way to go this time around. There's really nothing for him to do in TNA.

WWE could use another veteran in the locker room. I have a feeling Sting would find a lot of guys who respect him the moment he walked in the door. I could be wrong.

To be honest I found the latest TNA Impact to be a little more entertaining than usual.

ALBERTO DEL RIO has no taste or class after last night.

 

[Defcon]

I totally marked for the use of the Kerwin White theme during that segment, so it was worth it just for that.

 

[Admiral_Young]

^^ timothy you get that was the point of that segment right?

 

[timothy]

yeah I know it's still wrong. and can't wait for tommarrow.


tough enough and RAW

who do you think is leaving tommarrow on tough enough?
and what is up with scott hall?

 

[Admiral_Young]

How is it wrong? That's Del Rio's entire gimmick. I'm sure they would not have done that had Edge not approved it. The only thing I had a problem with and didn't find funny was the Fat Lita. That was classless but again part of Del Rio's personality and fits in with his gimmick. Not to mention this all has to do with pushing Christian as a face.

Why do you bring up Scott Hall? I believe I posted a report a month or so back that he was hospitalized and fitted with a pace maker. Scott is going through a lot of personal problems and getting help for it. I wish you'd be more specific in your posts when you bring things up.

 

[tomalak301]

I guess the only thing Raw has going for it right now is the Draft. I was afraid that after Wrestlemania, the WWE would lose momentum, and despite the Rock and Cena setting up next year's main event, and Edge retiring, it seems like they have. R-Truth turning Heel? Boring. Michael Cole being knighted? Please god end this freaking storyline after Extreme Rules, since it's outstayed it's welcome. As for Del Rio, I'm slowly starting to like him. Still, after the somewhat lameness of Mania, and what came after, things really need to shape up and I hope the Draft does that. Send Orton to Smackdown, and please god end this whole Cole/King/JR (And the wasting of Jack Swagger) storyline already.

 

[Admiral_Young]

I believe that the Knighting Ceremony was the last big gimmicky event before their rematch at Extreme Rules. As I've said Lawler and Ross will win and they'll either reveal Cole as the Anonymous GM and take him off television. A new GM will hopefully be named on Raw. It is going to be interesting.

Ah yes, the oldest gimmick going on in WWE right now, and something that's so old I don't think the "WWE Universe" really cares who the Anonymous GM is anymore. I would still love it to be Edge though, just to nail in the coffin how preposterous the whole thing was, and because I also saw his tirade against the computer on Youtube last week and it was funnier than the first time.

 

[Admiral_Young]

So let me ask this question just for fun. Who's worse? Heel Michael Cole? Or Mike Adamle as Raw GM?

 

[tomalak301]

Oh Mike Adamle by far. At least Cole can be entertaining, but he needs new material. You could only say "Give him the ankle-lock" and "Come on Swagger" so many times. The problem I have with that storyline (Other than I thought it would be done after Mania) is that Cole comes across as really repetitive. Take something from one Raw show (Or Smackdown) and it could go into any others. Did like the Colemine idea though.

As for Adamle, he would mess up people's names, had no charisma, and every time I saw it I would always thing of American Gladiators.

 

[Admiral_Young]

I'm surprised that Adamle isn't on Botchamania.

 

[Defcon]

^ Adamle is in the opening of each of the newer episodes with his "Jeff Harvey".

And I think what Timothy meant with Scott Hall is that he has been hospitalized again last week and many including Kevin Nash fear that this time it might really be his "last call".

And also his ex-wife Dana has gone on a crusade against wrestling, his wrestling buddies and fans again for being his enablers and being responsible for his downfall.

 

[donners22]

The details of their divorce are unknown (or at least they're unknown to me) and frankly I don't care. I just want this stupid feud over with. Kurt needs someone else to work with.

Is it just me or does no one in TNA have any recognizable music? I know Jarrett's siren theme and of course the HORRID cover of Voodoo Child that Immortal uses. That's about it.

Christian's theme was great...until they had to change it because it was a note-for-note rip of an Evanescence song.

Angle, Abyss and the Guns have pretty distinctive themes.

TNA needs to bring back The New Church just to use their theme.
