My guess is at the end of the "seasons" only some will make it (perhaps a tournament for a grand finale? or have do or die matches?) and some will either A) be fired or B) go back to development for possible repackaging
-
Considering this isn't RAW or SD I imagine most of the veteran ECW will their trainers.
-
Read that early, some of them look good. Only thing I'm not fond of is Brett Dibiase b/c im beginning to like Ted and I'm afraid they will side track him with Brett instead of letting him shine on his own as an individual (as of now I see WWE putting him over Rhodes when they eventually feud to end Legacy or Priceless w/e they are)
-
Cappy, JW, I just added him to my ignore list I dont need to see cussing and name calling in a childish abusive manner time after time.
Was anyone else dissapointed by the big news conference though? I was expected them to throw in at least something small since the move to Monday nights was far from a secret to anyone thats been remotley following them since Hogan took over.
-
Problem is they dont have anyone else they've been marketing and they dont want Brown to fight for the belt already. Is Faber super deserving? Maybe not, but who else is?
I think they have done a decent job of building themselves though, for awhile WEC was only Urijah, then they built up Mike Brown to be legit, now Aldo is, Henderson and Cerrone are becoming more popular, overall I like what they are doing and I will admit I am surprised by their success since they cut down their divisions.

I liked when Sabin was on his own competing for the X division title and I thought Shelly as the paparazzi was great and it seems like his charisma carry's Sabin's lack of. I saw Shelly live twice and he is the most live charismatic worker I have ever seen (includes Jericho who lots of people credit) his playing to the crowd, actions, facial expressions, all when he isnt even in the ring, everything is awesome. Just wish he was bigger size wise so he could main event.
But i know MCMG have gotten over and lots of people like them, thats just my personal preference

You know what annoys me about TNA?
Their recent and utter lack of Scott Steiner. So what if he's a way over the hill steroid junkie? He cut the best promos in wrestling history.
Where would we be without his math promo, the "I'm Hungry" promo, or him reminding us about Hiro-Jima and the time The Pearl Harbor bombed the Germans.
The 100% cut ties with him I think last week I read (or the week before)
-
I hate they ruined Williams and got rid of him, the canadian destroyers is definitley the type of different they need. I remember the first TNA I watched (waaay back now) I saw Styles do his springboard reverse DDT and was amazed.
-
Seriously dude, if you just want to argue with people that will reach no end go take it into the WWE thread. I got sucked in early as others have but its not fair to the people talking about TNA. Your responses are getting more heated as it goes on including taking shots at one legged people which means the thread is probably on the verge of being closed which I dont think people talking about TNA want.
I don't like the move to Monday night but I understand why they are doing it. They know they aren't going to knock WWE off but they are hoping the "war" will generate ratings and get them to the point they can make money off their shows. However WWE is trying not to acknowledge them at all but TNA keeps poking hoping WWE will mention them which will help TNA more than hurt since the people that dont know TNA wil go online and look them up the moment Vince talks about them in a press conference/release
-
He's one of my favs and I love watching his old fights in PRIDE, same with the old Shogun ones during their GP runs, they just anhiliated people, althought Rampage's slam KO of Arona is pretty sweet
-
I wonder if they would attend every tapping if it was weekly and they had to pay $20 to get in. Where did you find that btw?
-
Terrible competition? He's beaten a who's who of MMA Heavyweights except for Couture (which now he's so old I wouldnt want to see it anyway)
If all of those fighters are so terrible and clearly undeserving of being a champion then who is good?
-
I think Styles win out for a little bit anyways in order to solidify his heel character and Ric Flair, doesnt make much sense to have Styles change to a d*ck with Flair only for a month so I think he will hold the title for at least two/three more months.
-
White Rapper Cena would have been huge in the attitude era, he was somewhat controversial when he first did it (remember the parking lot match with Eddie for the U.S. title that made him? yeah, WWE doesn't do those matches anymore) imagine if they actually let him try to be offending as the rapper gimmick, did i love it? is he my favorite? of course not, but as everyone is saying, the evidence is there he would have succeeded, good mic work, good look/physique, he would have fit right in.
-
I highly doubt JR will sign with TNA, his posts have been pretty adament he has a bunch going on outside of wrestling and wouldnt be hurt if his wrestling days were done. I also dont see TNA spending the money for another announcer when they are doing fine as is.
-
Kong can moan about pay all she wants but if TNA isn't paying her X what else is she going to do? Women's wrestling isn't as popular period, at least the men have more options. She should quit moaning and hope WWE calls her.

You bring up a good point about the tag division and how weak it is which is why I think they brought in the Nasty Boyz. It's unfortunate since it used to be their strong point. I think its pretty clear too that Morgan and Hernandez aren't a long term team.
BTW, why is Morgan packaged so dumb with his little robe with genes on it, and the blue print? I've hated that since they gave it to last year. hes big, make him some sort of vigilante taking heels out! And carbon foot print? (if thats what it is)
-
Probably b/c the won't get as popular.
-
Didn't watch Smackdown last night, is it worth finding online or just read the write up? I'm assuming nothing big happened but haven't read a write up yet in case something did and I should watch
-
I am interested to see if Mousasi will stay with Strikeforce after his final fight or if he does resign how long he will stay now that he doesnt have the M-1 connection.
-
Hogan trying to act like a 20 year old drives me crazy.
buts its crack a lackin jack, crack a lackin this is the in place to be brother, i have a tattoo and come out to a crappy remake of the nWo music!
-
It was an alright show, better than last weeks. If they end up unmasking Abyss in the long haul I think most of us will be upset.
Wasn't surprised at all by Hogan (hes the face of the company they werent going to turn him heel when you have Bischoff) however i wouldnt be surprised if they did it at a later date, meaning this gives them an excuse to hire Hall and Waltman now "come on Hulk sign them so we can face them in a real match (Angle & Nash)"
I actually liked the tag match with Wolfe/Hernandez/Angle/Anderson only thing I didnt like about it was I thought Hernandez looked like he didnt belong with those guys.
Pope/Jordan, not huge fans of both but dont understand the Pope/Jordan storyline. Forgive me if my time table is off but, two weeks ago you have Jordan beat Pople b/c of a knee, last week you have Pople beat the champ cleanly, then this week you have Pope beat Jordan to "get revenge" but it got him into the tournament so its not like they will be facing each other at the PPV, I could see them having Jordan interfere maybe but then once again, what was the point of him beating Styles if he is put back down the card to feud with Jordan? (who I despise)
X-Division match was decent, that rolling german is sweet, havent seen it before. would like to see them use the british stable more though.
Overall decent like I said, really really really wish some of the old TNA stuff was around now that its getting attention (Team Canada, Petey Williams, The Naturals, AMW, Raven i get he's old but his segments were always interesting)
