After investing millions into a long term deal with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling and reluctantly giving them a head-to-head slot against WWE's flagship TV show and cable television institution Monday Night RAW, Kevin Kay is seeing money being figuratively flushed down the toilet every week on television. Ratings are dropping from 3 year averages, and more money is being poured into the product than ever before. Something needs to change, and soon.</em></strong></p><p> </p><p> <em>Kevin Kay's disgruntled by yet another ratings drop since the move to Monday Nights finally picks up the phone and makes a call to TNA's President Dixie Carter.</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong>Hey Kevin. What do I owe this pleasure?</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Kevin Kay: </strong>What the **** Dixie?</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong>Oh christ you saw the ratings...</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Kevin Kay: </strong>What the hell are you guys doing down there? I was told worst case scenario a zero net change in ratings! But lo-and-behold you've dropped 30 damn points since before we moved you guys to mondays, and you've dropped 10 points since you've moved to mondays. We move you to 8 o'clock and you bring me this horse**** rating. This is not what I call gaining momentum Dixie.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong>I understand your anger, and believe me I'm not happy either, but Eric thinks they need time to get it right.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Kevin Kay: </strong>Time? They've had 4 months to get this crap right. We've changed timeslots 3 times, twice in the last month and the ratings are still smell like month old cow-pies. I'm a wrestling fan Dixie, you know that, and I believe in TNA. I signed off on bringing in Eric and Terry because I believed they'd give us ratings. They're not, and I'm pissed. Now I want you to give me a reason to not pull the plug on this whole deal.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong>Look the ratings may be low, but we're still giving you a better number than you usually get in any time slot.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Kevin Kay: </strong>At ten times the price!

Something's gotta change, and it's bigger than just making a show that makes sense. Eric and Terry said they had a five-year-plan when they came in. But from all that I've seen, and all that I've read, it's looking like it's more of a fifteen-years-ago-plan. Which I wouldn't have a problem with if it pulled ratings, but it's not Dixie.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong> I can't do anything about creative, Kevin. I wouldn't know where to start.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Kevin Kay: </strong> You're right Dixie. I'm sorry to holler at you like this, but I had to talk to someone at TNA about it and you were the first name that popped in my head. Let me say this: I'm behind you Dixie. 100%. As long as I'm on Spike TV there will be TNA on Spike TV. But you need to right the ship, and quick. If you won't talk to Eric and Terry, I will.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dixie Carter: </strong>I'll do it Kevin.

Slagaholic Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Part II : A Burned Bridge Dixie Carter's office is silent, the only sound is the tick-tock of Dixie's desk clock. Dixie is staring at Eric Bischoff and Terry Bollea, Eric is staring at the desk, and Terry is texting on his phone. Dixie Carter: Can we start now, Terry? Terry Bollea: Sorry my girlfriend's texting me. She's at the market and didn't know if I wanted grape juice or apple juice. I told her to just get both and we'll see. Dixie and Eric stare at Terry. Terry puts his phone away. Dixie Carter: Guys, Kevin Kay called me this morning and said he's prepared to pull the plug on Monday Nights. Terry Bollea: He can't do that! Dixie Carter: He's the President of Spike TV, Terry, he can put us on at 3 AM Sunday Morning if he wants to. Eric Bischoff: I think we're turning the corner to be honest Dixie. Lockdown was a really good show, it had a great main event, it... Dixie Carter: had yet another run in and a 2nd consecutive no-contest main event on Pay-Per-View. How is that really good? Our Pay-Per-Views have embarassingly low buy rates as is, if you're just going to just give our few viewers the finger every month, why will they keep coming back? Eric Bischoff: I think of each Pay-Per-View as the end of a chapter in a book. Dixie Carter: And the book's title is Snooze-Fest 2010. You can't bs your way out of this one Eric, it's clear your ideas are failing. What are you going to do to change it? Terry Bollea: What if I went one-on-one with AJ Styles at Sacrifice? Dixie and Eric stare at Terry. Terry Bollea: Oh c'mon that's not a bad idea, it'll sell. Dixie and Eric continue staring at Terry. Dixie Carter: Here's an idea. Terry, you are no longer involved in creative. Terry Bollea: Aw. Eric Bischoff: I'm OK with that. Dixie Carter: And I'm bringing in a new head of creative. You will have to run everything by him and he has the final say on everything. You gave me no choice fellas, you're failing, and you have way too much talent to fail. So tomorrow I want you to get creative together and we'll meet the new creative head. We'll kick around ideas and we'll formulate a clear and concise idea of what we're doing up until Bound For Glory. Eric Bischoff: Dixie, I have to object to this whole thing, we haven't had enough time. WWE is throwing the kitchen sink at us, and we haven't been able to get the boys in the back to see things our way yet. Terry Bollea: Oh cut the crap Eric, we blew it. The best move business-wise is to step aside and let someone else try. Eric Bischoff: Bull ****! We just need more time. I'm not going to run my ideas by some corporate pencil pusher. I want complete control. That's why I'm here, I'm here to put TNA on the map. Dixie Carter: You will step aside or you will be fired. Eric Bischoff: You can't fire me. Dixie Carter: I can fire you from creative, and you can cash out if you want. Because honestly, I'm tired of working with you Eric. Your ideas stink, and I'm not the only one who thinks that. The viewers think so. You need to get with the times and being a bullheaded ass won't do it. So Eric, you either follow my lead or get out of my way. Eric Bischoff stands up and gets face-to-face with Dixie Carter. Eric Bischoff: Dixie. Go **** yourself. Eric storms out of Dixie's office, slamming the door behind him. Terry Bollea: That went well... Dixie Carter: Think he's leaving? Terry Bollea: Just another one of his temper tantrums. He'll cool down. He wants this to succeed Dixie, like for me this is his last shot. He wants to succeed very badly. He doesn't deal with failure well. Dixie Carter: Well neither do I. I'm Bob Carter's daughter godammit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Part III : An Intriguing Name Eric Bischoff is slumpped in his throne, watching another empire turn to dust before him. Former employee, now friend, Terry Bollea walks into his office, a morose expression on his face. Eric Bischoff: Can you believe what Dixie's doing? Trying to tell me that I don't know wrestling? Me? Eric Bischoff? I'm the only guy who brought the King of Conneticut to his knees and she treats me like some two-bit jobber who became a booker because I suck a good ****. Who does she think she is? Terry Bollea: She thinks she's your boss, because that's who she is. Eric Bischoff: She's my...our buisness partner. She can't fire us, hell she came to us about coming here. Terry Bollea: Does that really matter? She's the chairman of the board, if she wants to fire us from creative it's her right to. Eric Bischoff: I can't wait to see what joker they bring in to replace me. Terry Bollea: If it's Russo I swear to God I'm leaving the business. Eric Bischoff: It's not going to be Russo, knowing Dixie it'll be Kevin Nash. Christ it's hard enough to keep him happy, if he's booker I'm leaving the business. Speaking of Russo, how long do you think it'll take before he leaks this to the dirt sheets? Terry Bollea: About thirty seconds after he finds out. Eric Bischoff: ****ing douchebag. If anyone should be fired from creative it's him. Terry Bollea: Amen. Ya know it wasn't cool what you said to Dixie back there. Eric Bischoff: Oh I know Hulk, but she dropped a ton of **** on our heads and expected us to eat it up like salad. She deserved what I said. But I'm not leaving, I have no reason to. TNA makes me money, and it makes me happy to be back in the biz. Terry Bollea: Same here brother. If you're sticking around, I'll stick around, I wanna see this thing through. Terry puts his hand on Eric's shoulder and leaves his office. Eric Bischoff: 'I'm Bob Carter's daughter godammit!' Bitch... Dixie Carter has been attempting to search for a new head of creative under the radar for the last few hours. Her inexperience with the creative end of the pro wrestling business was quite obvious. Dixie was beginning to regret the meeting she had earlier with Eric Bischoff and Terry Bollea. Dixie made a call to the only person she knew that could give a point of view on TNA's situation that she could trust. Dixie Carter makes the call. Jeff Jarrett: Hey Dixie! How's it going? Dixie Carter: Not too great Jeff. I got a call this morning from Kevin Kay. Jeff Jarrett: Oh boy. About the ratings? Dixie Carter: Yes. And he tore me a new one to tell ya the truth. Well I felt so bad that I called Eric and Terry in and tore them a new one. Jeff Jarrett: Well be honest, Dixie, they deserve it. I have no damn clue what those boys are doing. Dixie Carter: I know. I think Eric quit on us. Jeff Jarrett: Really? Dixie Carter: I fired him as Head of Creative. Jeff Jarrett: Oh boy. Dixie Carter: Well he shared some unpleasant feelings with me. He didn't make it official or anything, but I riled him up real good. Jeff Jarrett: 'Bout time someone lit a fire under his ass. Dixie Carter: Well now I got a fire lit under my ass, we've got a show to tape tonight and there's no one to write it. I'm thinking about just telling Russo to do it. Jeff Jarrett: Oh sweet jesus Dixie, don't go doing that! Look if you need a guy who knows TNA and knows this business to write the show, I have just the guy for you. Believe you me he deserves it and I personally think he'll do a fantastic job at booking. Plus, I think the boys will really get behind this one. Dixie Carter: Who might this person be?

Slagaholic Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Part IV : A Chance Of A Lifetime The name that Jeff Jarrett gave Dixie intrigued her. But it also filled her with fear, it's not a big name, it's not a big splash, but it may be just the right guy to turn the ship around. With all other quick fixes exhausted and a show going to be taped in just a few hours, Dixie picks up the phone and only has two numbers she could call. Eric Bischoff. Or... Jeremy Borash: Dixie! What do I owe the pleasure? Dixie Carter: Wanted to run something by you. Jeremy Borash: Alrighty, what do you need? Dixie Carter: Have you talked to Eric or Terry yet? Jeremy Borash: Yet? Umm...not yet, we're not supposed to meet for another hour. Dixie Carter: Good. Well I don't know if they're going to be coming in tonight. Jeremy Borash: Why not? Dixie Carter: I fired Eric from creative. Jeremy Borash: Seriously. Dixie Carter: Dead serious. Jeremy Borash: Well I can't say I'm surprised, did you see the ratings from last night? Oh who am I kidding that's probably the reason why you fired him. Dixie Carter: Yep. That and a phone call I got from Kevin Kay. Jeremy Borash: Any good news? Dixie Carter: He wants a change in creative, Jeremy. Jeremy Borash: I agree with his assessment. Dixie Carter: Well JB I want you to be that change. Jeremy is frozen in shock Dixie Carter: JB? Jeremy Borash: You want me to head creative? Dixie Carter: We have a show to tape tonight, and I want you to have full control. Jeremy Borash: Oh man this is heavy. Dixie Carter: Do you want the job? Jeremy Borash: Of course! I'm just surprised you chose me. Dixie Carter: Let's just say a little birdie told me that you were the right choice. Jeremy Borash: That's just swell Dixie. Thank you so much! Dixie Carter: This isn't permanent if you don't deliver. Jeremy Borash: I promise I'll give you everything I've got. I've got a million ideas that I never got to see realized on screen. This is so exciting! I gotta call my mom! Dixie Carter: You've also got a show to write. Jeremy Borash: That too! Thank you so much Dixie, you won't regret it! Dixie Carter: Take care JB. Jeremy hangs up the phone. His seemingly permanent smile fades to fear. Jeremy Borash: How the **** am I going to sell this to the fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Part V: How Are We Gonna Sell This? Eric Bischoff recieves an email which contains this article from the 'Dirtsheet Derby' ERIC BISCHOFF FIRED AS TNA BOOKER? Reports are coming in that Eric Bischoff has been fired as head booker of Total Nonstop Action. Kevin Kay, President of Spike TV and Dixie Carter are apparently the people behind his removal. Failing ratings and a failing product have been cited as reasons for his dismisall. It is not known whether or not this means that Eric Bischoff's partnership with Total Nonstop Action and Spike TV is over, nor is it known what this means about Hulk Hogan's involvement with TNA. This is a move that is both shocking and not-so-shocking considering the direction TNA has been heading under the lead of Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan. TNA's Bischoff-Hogan era is apparently over, and it may go down as one of the most disasterous mix of poor management and poor booking in the post-WCW wrestling world. A failed move to monday nights, horrendous booking decisions, and ADD TV have been common complaints by wrestling fans and the ratings reflect their sentiments. The replacement has not officially been named but one unnamed source claims that former WCW head booker Vince Russo has been tapped to re-assume the role which he previously held before Bischoff and Hogan officially joined TNA in 2010. TNA Impact tapings will be going ahead as scheduled tonight, more information to be released as it is uncovered. Word of his firing being leaked sends Eric Bischoff into a gray-haired rage. Such an intense rage that it takes three tries for him to successfully dial Vince Russo's number. Vince Russo who just became privy to the information at the same time as Bischoff reluctantly answers the phone. Vince Russo: Eric, I swear to you, it was not me. Eric Bischoff: Bull ****ing **** Vince! All the dirt sheets say the same damn thing. Bischoff out, Russo in. This has you and your swarmy backstabbing bull**** written all over it. Vince Russo: It wasn't me! Hell I didn't even know you were fired until I got this email two minutes before you called me! Hell I don't know if you were even really fired, were you? Eric Bischoff: That's none of your damn business Russo. Vince Russo: If I didn't know, how did I leak it? Some absolutely insane coincidence? Eric Bischoff hangs up. Dials Dixie. Dixie Carter: You know I didn't leak that, Eric. Eric Bischoff: Well who did? Dixie Carter: I don't know who did it, but this has Russo written all over it. Eric Bischoff: He said he didn't do it. Dixie Carter: And you believe him? Eric Bischoff: I don't know what to believe. This has been the worst ****ing day. Dixie Carter: Calm down Eric. I fired you as head of creative, but I didn't fire you, like you said I can't. I want you to stay a part of TNA. But I had to do something Eric, my back's against the wall. Eric Bischoff: Well who are you thinking about hiring to replace me? Dixie Carter: I already hired your replacement, I'm giving JB a shot at it. Eric Bischoff: Honestly Dixie? That's not a bad idea at all. Dixie Carter: If you still want to help out with creative I'm sure JB won't have a problem working with you. Eric Bischoff: We'll see. Eric Bischoff weighs his ego and his business acumen. He decides working under JB wouldn't be the worst idea, however he is only left with one question... Jeremy Borash: Just the man I wanted to talk to. Eric Bischoff: How the **** are we going to sell this to the fans? Jeremy's smile is large enough that it can be heard through the reciever. Jeremy Borash: That's the same question I had. Eric Bischoff: Any ideas? Jeremy Borash: I have one idea, and I think it'll work. But you gotta get Hulk on board as well. Eric Bischoff: Let me hear it... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- That's the end of the backstory, I hope you enjoyed it. I'll be posting the roster and other such diary standards tomorrow. Cheers. P.S. No, I won't make having this many updates in one day a regular thing.

Slagaholic Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 DIRTSHEET DERBY TNA OFFICIALLY RELEASE A NUMBER OF WRESTLERS TNA apparently has brought to an end the contracts of The Nasty Boyz, Raven, Dr. Stevie, Jesse Neal, and Tomko have all been officially released from their TNA contracts. We wish the best in the future! TNA's much needed roster trimming seems to have begun, the question is: who else is on their way out? TNA TO NAME NEW HEAD BOOKER LIVE ON IMPACT? With the news of Eric Bischoff's firing spreading like wild fire the night of a show, it seems TNA will be naming the new authority figure tonight on Impact. Only name that has been vocally recognized as in contention has been Vince Russo, but time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 http://cache.kotaku.com/assets/resources/2008/04/tna_impact.jpg The opening pyro goes off as Mike Tenay and Taz welcomed the fans to the show. Shortly after the pyro however, Dixie Carter's music hits Dixie walked to the ring with a concerned look on her face “Fans, when I bought TNA I thought I was buying the most exciting, most entertaining wrestling company in the world today. I just thought TNA needed a chance, a financial backer, so I bought in. We created a partnership with Spike TV, and we got on prime time television. Little by little we were moving forward, gaining momentum. Then I got a phone call, it was Eric Bischoff. He pitched an idea that he would invest in TNA and he would do what he can to help us out. He brought with him Hulk Hogan, a pro wrestling legend. In his words, he was the shot of rocket fuel that TNA needed, I believed him. But I stand here live and I’m saying to you all that I was wrong. Eric Bischoff is running around like he not only owns this place but owns those men and women back there. Hulk Hogan is letting Eric Bischoff do anything he damn well pleases. I won’t stand for it! So I’m announcing right here and right now that Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan are no longer in charge of TNA. "It’s clear that Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan aren’t responsible enough to have this power. I’m the Chair of the Board, and I am making an executive order right here. So, without further ado, I’d like to take this time to introduce Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan’s new boss. Mick Foley!” Mick Foley entered the ring and gave Dixie a hearty hug. The fans chanted “Foley! Foley! Foley!” as Mick waved to them. Foley's smile melts as he looks up the ramp. “Bischoff! Hogan! Get your asses out here!” Eric Bischoff ran out first, Hogan lagging behind him “What the hell do you think you’re doing, Dixie! We had an agreement! We have a contract!” “No where in that contract does it say I can’t promote someone over you.” “Eric don’t you dare blame Dixie. This is your own fault. You ran around like a South American dictator for 5 months and someone’s finally called you on your crap! The way you treated me and Jeff Jarrett, what you did to Beer Money Inc, sitting idly by while Ric Flair destroys everything you’re trying to build up, and you think everything’s OK? You can’t do anything about it, Eric. I’m your boss, and I’m trying to think of a reason not to fire you. I can’t think of one.” Hulk Hogan steps in “Listen Mick, don’t making any harsh decisions right now. Eric Bischoff is an asset to TNA; I’m an asset to TNA.” “I’ve waited my entire life to say these four words: Hulk. Hogan. Shut. Up. You’re an enabler, Hulk Hogan. Letting Eric Bischoff do whatever he wants to do as long he didn’t get involved in your personal projects, it’s despicable.” “Mick I…” “Give me one reason, one reason not to fire your ass right here and right now.” “I…” “YOU’RE FIRED!” Eric dejectedly lowered his head, bringing the microphone up to his lips he is lost for words. Eric simply handed the microphone to Hogan and walked to the back. Mick Foley turned his attention to Hogan and issued a warning “You, you could be next Hulk, do your damn job.” ---------------------------------------- Daniels vs Shannon Moore Daniels heeled it up disrespecting Shannon Moore, treating him like he’s a joke. Daniels arrogantly stomped on Moore’s back and began making fun of Moore’s silly Mohawk. Daniels starts spending more time taunting Moore than attacking him. This lapse in judgment cost Daniels as he gave Moore too much time to recover, allowing Moore to gain the upper hand. Moore used his trademark quick offense to keep Daniels off guard but it came to an abrupt end when Moore ran directly into a hat removing clothesline from Daniels. Daniels stopped with the mockery and stuck to his ground offense; stifling Moore who was valiantly attempting to mount a comeback. Unfortunately for Moore, he was on the receiving end of a Daniels B.M.E. and a loss. ---------------------------------------- Rob Van Dam climbed up the rafters above the TNA Impact Zone looking for Sting. Calling his name and carrying an aluminum baseball bat, RVD starts hitting the catwalk beckoning Sting to show himself. From the shadows Sting appeared behing RVD, baseball bat in hand. Fortunately Rob Van Dam’s Spidey-Senses activated and he turned around just in time to block Sting’s swing. The collision of both bats hitting each other knocked both men backwards; they both rose and charged at each other. But only a few blows were landed before security made their way up to the catwalk to separate the men. ---------------------------------------- MCMG vs Kazarian and Amazing Red Kaz and Red have not worked with each other much but they worked well together against the Motor City Machine Guns. Sabin used underhanded tactics to regain the upper hand on Red and cut the ring in half early on. MCMG attempted to double team Red but he hit a double drop kick and made the hot tag to Kaz. Kaz cleared the ring as MCMG bailed to the outside. Kaz whipped Red into the ropes and got on all fours as Red spring boarded off Kaz over the top rope onto MCMG! MCMG regained the advantage using the steel barrier as a face massager on Kaz. Red got knocked onto the ramp as MCMG double teamed Kaz in the ring. Red charged at the ring and leaped onto Shelly from the ramp; knocking him out of the ring. Kaz hit Sabin with the Back to the Future Suplex and picked up the victory. ---------------------------------------- Matt Morgan was interviewed by Jeremy Borash. JB asked Morgan about his injured partner Hernandez. Morgan smiled. “Look when I hurt Hernandez I felt bad, I really did. But when I look at where I am now, I know that it was a good thing for me. It was an unfortunate circumstance but it has worked out for me. I’m free of that emotional and physical drain, and while it cost me the Tag Team Titles, I plan on getting those back real quick.” ---------------------------------------- Jeff Jarrett made his way to the ring, an ear-to-ear grin pasted on his face. “I can only think of one word to describe my feelings right now. I feel vindicated! For months Eric Bischoff treated me like a piece of crap, and there was nothing I could do about it. But now, now I can’t get rid of this smile on my face.” Eric Bischoff was shown on the video screen cleaning out his desk while Jeff Jarrett led the crowd in the chorus: “Nanana-na! Nanana-na! Hey hey hey! Goodbye!” “Guys I just can’t get rid of this smile on my face.” Desmond Wolfe made his way to the ring with Chelsea. “Hey Jeff, in case you forgot we’ve got a match tonight, yes? So stop wasting my bloody time smilin’” Jeff smiled Desmond Wolfe drills Jarrett in the head with the microphone “Then I’ll wipe that smile off your face!” ---------------------------------------- Jeff Jarrett v Desmond Wolfe Wolfe kept on top of Jeff Jarrett as the bell rung, making the match official. Wolfe forced Jarrett in the corner with stiff kicks to the sternum and punches to the face. The referee got in between them, allowing Jarrett back to his feet. Wolfe put Jarrett in a hammerlock but Jarrett reversed it into a DDT. They both popped up and Jarrett arm dragged Wolfe who ran into another arm drag, and then ran into a biiiig back body drop. Jarrett stayed on top of Wolfe with a grounded head lock; however Wolfe raked Jarrett’s eyes forcing him free. Wolfe stiffly kicked Jarrett in the back so hard it knocked Jarrett to his feet. Wolfe whipped Jarrett into the ropes; Jarrett ducked a clothesline and hit a leaping clothesline of his own! Wolfe was still woozy when Jarrett signaled for The Stroke, and he hit it! Jarrett wins the match. ---------------------------------------- Jarrett was all smiles but was visibly exhausted after the match. Mr. Anderson leaped the guard rail and attacked Jarrett! Jarrett didn’t have it in him to fight back as Mr. Anderson hit the Mic Check on him in the middle of the ring. Mr. Anderson’s microphone dropped from the ceiling. “Jeff Jarrett, you’re a free man. Bischoff’s gone, all is well, OR IS IT? Jeff, I don’t like you, I don’t hate you, but something about that stupid smile you had on your face just made me want, no, have to punch it. So…I’m sorry for ruining your little celebration, but the joy you expressed physically pained me. It gave me douche chills so severe I almost threw out back. So in case you were wondering. This post match beatdown. Was brought to you by: MIIIIIIIISTEEERRR ANDERSON!” Mr. Anderson left the ring and returned up the ramp. Mr. Anderson stopped at the top of the ramp, turned and raced back to the ring. Mr. Anderson grabbed his microphone again and posed to the crowd. “ANNNNNDEEERRSOOOOONNN-NUH” ---------------------------------------- Tara vs Velvet Sky Tara and Velvey went at it right from the opening bell. Tara whipped Sky into the ropes and hit a sidewalk slam. Tara tried to end it quickly with a Widows Peak but Lacey Von Erich distracted the referee while Madison Rayne clipped Tara’s knee knocking Tara on her back and causing Velvet Sky to land on top of Tara. The referee started to count but was pulled out of the ring by Angelina Love! The match descended into chaos as The Beautiful People began attacking Angelina Love and Tara! Taylor Wilde and Sarita made their way to the ring to make the save! The Beautiful People bailed out and posed at the entry way. ---------------------------------------- AJ Styles headed to the ring with Ric Flair behind him being wheeled by Chelsea. Styles helped Flair to his feet and into the ring. “So, it seems that Mick Foley is my new boss. Hopefully he’ll be more fun than Bischoff and Hogan were. I like the decision Dixie, good move. But here’s a warning to you Foley, you stray towards my trail you’re going to get blazed.” “That’s right. Mick, as far as the Nature Boy and the Golden Boy are concerned we wish you the best. However, you have a knack for getting involved in stuff that doesn’t need your involvement. It’s just how you are. Foley, you don’t want to mess with the World Heavyweight Champion, just let him do as he pleases and we’ll be great pals.” The crowd erupted as Mick Foley came out to confront them “Flair, AJ, I don’t want to be your pal. I don’t want to be your friend. I am your boss now.” “Don’t let it get to your head Mick! You don’t want to mess with us! You're going to end up in a world of hurt!” “I don’t need to heed warnings from Wheelchair Flair. If I want to I can send your ass back to a home back in Carolina.” AJ Styles started to leave the ring to go after Foley, but Flair stopped him. “You don’t talk about the Nature Boy that way!” “I’ll talk about the Nature Boy all I damn well please. You two are tap dancing on my last nerve, so tonight in that ring; I’m going to give a very frustrated man a chance to release his frustrations. You will be facing Rob Van Dam!” “Tonight! Get your gear on AJ.” AJ looked on in disbelief throwing a temper tantrum unbecoming of a 31-year-old. ---------------------------------------- The Band bust into Hulk Hogan's office, led by Kevin Nash “I don’t like this Hulk. Foley’s in charge, I don’t like that. What are you going to do about it?" Hulk looked up in Nash’s eyes “D’ya think I like it? But there’s nothing I can do but try to save my job.” “Save our jobs.” Hogan got in Nash’s face “I can’t promise you that brother. I can’t even promise my job right now.” Nash knocked Hogan down and started stomping on him; Syxx-Pac and Scott Hall joined in until security is able to pull them off Hogan. A crimson masked Hogan pulled himself up “NASH!” ---------------------------------------- Rob Van Dam vs AJ Styles AJ Styles wanted no part of RVD as he reluctantly went into the ring. RVD lunged after AJ like a bullet, tackling him out of the ring. AJ went over to Flair for advice, and Flair’s advice was to get out of there. AJ started to wheel Flair up the ramp, content with a count out loss, but RVD wouldn’t let it happen. RVD chased AJ down and dragged him back into the ring with a ring shaking toss. RVD laid an all out assault on AJ Styles tossing him all over the ring; AJ had to seek refuge on the outside. RVD threatened a plancha but AJ ducked behind Chelsea. RVD offered AJ free entry back into the ring, and immediately punished him when he re-entered. Chelsea climbed on the apron and distracted the ref, allowing AJ to give RVD a low blow. AJ is too worn out to build on it however. AJ slowly rose to his feet but right into a leaping spin kick from RVD! Rolling Thunder! RVD ascended to the top rope. But simultaneously Sting descended from the rafters and hovering over RVD! RVD started trying to attack Sting, giving AJ Styles the time to knock RVD off the top rope! AJ hit the Springboard 450 for the win. ---------------------------------------- Mick Foley ran out from the back but was immediately dropped from behind by a sickening Desmond Wolfe chairshot! Wolfe and Styles lay the boots to Foley as Impact draws to a close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 Looking at Eric Bischoff's face on Wednesday morning it is clear that the shame and sadness he displayed on Impact were genuine. He had failed yet again. Maybe pro wrestling really has evolved past him? Maybe he was never really any good? Eric's calander is clear, but he told Terry he had a lunch meeting. His cell phone is off, and his phone is off the hook. There is no sound in his lonely office, except for the rhymic tapping of his pen on the desk. The silence was broken by a knock. Eric Bischoff: I'm on the phone, come back later. The door opens anyway Jeremy Borash: You alright? Eric Bischoff: **** off JB, I'm busy. Jeremy Borash: A blank legal pad and a phone off the hook. C'mon Eric. Eric Bischoff: What do you want? Jeremy Borash: I need your help on something. Eric Bischoff: Relating to what? Jeremy Borash: Relating to Impact, I wanna get started on building next week's show and a get together a tenative card for Sacrifice. Eric Bischoff: AJ vs somebody, RVD and Jeff Hardy vs somebody, The Band vs somebody, Mr. Anderson vs Jarrett, Knockouts match, X-Division match, Tag Title match, voila! Sacrifice. Jeremy Borash: Why don't you just quit? Eric Bischoff: Because that means they win. Jeremy Borash: Who are they? Eric Bischoff: Dixie Carter, you, Terry, the business, this whole ****ing thing. Jeremy Borash: Look you said you'd work with me, and I want your input on my decisions. But if you're going to be a whiny bitch for the next 3 years I'd rather you just go home and stay away from TNA. You have value to TNA Eric, maybe not on-screen right now, but we could use your input. Eric Bischoff: Whatever. JB shrugs and exits Bischoff's office. DIRTSHEET DERBY IMPACT AND RAW RATINGS Last night was another stage in the somewhat farcical 'Monday Night Wars 2.0' as Monday Night Raw in a complete and utter non-shock won by 3 points as they scored a 3.77 rating while TNA Impact scored a .71 rating. BISCHOFF-HOGAN ERA OVER? Sources inside of TNA's offices state that both Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan are on their way out. Eric Bischoff was fired as head booker last night on Impact after Dixie Carter in a worked-shoot expressed disappointment in Bischoff and Hogan and appointed Mick Foley as Head Authority Figure on TNA. Bischoff was quickly fired by Foley, but it's looking like this angle may come to life as soon as this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a no disqualification match. With one exception: if any of your cronies interfere with the match you will forfeit your title."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <em>AJ's smile disappeared</em> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p>---------------------------------------- </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:12px;">Doug Williams vs Consequences Creed</span></span></strong> </p><p> Consequences Creed was clearly overmatched here. Doug Williams spent the first few minutes of the match not allowing Creed to even rise from the mat. Creed finally got a burst of offense after a fighting back from a waistlock with a head butt. Creed hit a stiff rolling clotheslined the dazed Williams, knocking him down. Creed however, gambled and went to the top rope and was followed by a cat-like Williams who turned Creed around on the top rope. Doug Williams hit a Super German Suplex! And he gets the win! </p><p> </p><p> <em>The referee grabbed for Doug Williams' arm but Doug's attention was being spent elsewhere. His attention was focused on his boots, whom were becoming good friends with Consquences Creed's forehead. The referee tackled Doug Williams to stop the assault.</em> </p><p> </p><p> ----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">Hulk Hogan's</span> office door is opened. Instinctively, Hogan grabbed a Louisville Slugger to help him.

Daniels applied a headlock which Red reversed into a leg sweep. Daniels turned beet red and charged at Red, who dodged, sending Daniels crashing to the floor. Daniels took his sweet time getting back into the ring. Red taunted Daniels. Daniels angrily slid back into the ring, into more attacks from Red. Daniels turned the tide with a low blow. Daniels took control of the matchup from there. Daniels angrily slammed Red to the mat with a well-executed Exploder Suplex. Red is unable to get back in this. Daniels hits the B.M.E. for the win. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Daniels trash talked the downed Red while leaveing the Impact Zone.</em> </p><p> </p><p> ----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">Mr. Anderson comes out and heads towards the ring. He poses in the middle of the ring as his personal microphone drops from the ceiling.</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"I'm sorry Jeff. I shouldn't have done it. It was un-announced, and un-called for. It was just in that moment, that look on your face. That stupid. little. grim. I couldn't contain myself. I had to punch it. Jeff I'm sorry, but I had to do it. So I'm here right now, offering you my hand, and no hard feelings."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <em>The crowd tried to hold their tongues when Jeff Jarrett slid into the ring behind Mr. Anderson. Mr. Anderson figured it out, and turned quickly to attack Jarrett with his microphone. Jarrett dodged the attack and drilled Anderson in the face with some right hands. Jarrett whipped Anderson into the ropes and gave Mr. Anderson a ring shaking spine buster. Jarrett then dragged Mr. Anderson to his feet and drilled him to the mat with a double underhook face buster! Jeff Jarrett leaned over Mr. Anderson, much like Mr. Anderson had done last week and smiled, and smiled, and smiled.</em> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p>---------------------------------------- </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:12px;">Beer Money Inc. vs Generation Me</span></span></strong> </p><p> Robert Roode and Jeremy Buck started out the match trading simple wear-down holds. Buck was whipped into the corner and shouldered down by Roode. Roode bounced off the ropes over, Jeremy and into a kick from Max. Pin Attempt! Ohhh so close. Roode's angry now! He started clubbing Jeremy in the back. James Storm gets in on the action now. Jeremy gained some momentum knocking Roode to the floor, quickly climbing the top rope, and hitting a middle drop kick on Storm! Pin! But no! Storm kicks out. Jeremy tagged in Max. Generation Me attempt to double team. Storm Max and Jeremy run in opposite directions, while Storm stands between them. Roode grabs Max's leg from outside the ring, and Jeremy runs right into a Last Call superkick from James Storm! Max turns around...another Last Call! And another win for Beer Money. </p><p> </p><p> ----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <em><span style="color:#0000FF;">Mick Foley</span></em><em> was in the middle of important work in his office when Pope D'Angelo Dinero sauntered into the room.

What can I do for you bud?"</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"I want to tell you a little story. Story bout a man named Pope. Now Pope, he's pimpin'. And a few months ago at Against All Odds he won the 8-card stud tournament. Getting a title match against AJ Styles at Lockdown. Now Pope overcame many obstacles on his way to Lockdown. He had his leg nearly broken by AJ Styles, then AJ and Flair's little goon Desmond Wolfe took a run at me. But Pope? He overcame, and made it to Lockdown. Are ya following me Mick or should Pope go back a few verses?"</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"Preach, Pope! Preach!"</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"Pope gets to Lockdown, one on one with AJ Styles. Or so he thought. You see Pope was inches away from victory. Pope was mere inches away from being TNA World.Heavyweight.Champion. When Ric Flair closed the cage door on Pope's face. Allowing AJ Styles to win the match. Now Pope, Pope doesn't get bitter, Pope don't have time for petty things like bitterness. But! Pope has cleared his calendar, he's canceled meetings..."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"Cancelled church?"</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"Oh hell no I didn't cancel church!

Now Foley, the reason I freed up so much time was not for bitterness. It was for revenge. So Pope has a proposal to make. That match you made for Sacrifice. That match with AJ Styles. That match for the World Heavyweight Championship. That match where if Ric Flair interferes, AJ loses his title. Now you know, and Pope know, what needs to happen here."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"I'll think about it."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"That's all you've got?"</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"Yes."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"Pope is very disappointed."</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"Well Pope needs to give Mick time."</span> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p>----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">RVD</span> was being interviewed by <span style="color:#0000FF;">Jeremy Borash.</span> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#0000FF;">"Rob Van Dam you finally get a chance to get back in the ring with Sting for the first time since Lockdown.

Taking advantage of both a silly referee and an over-anxious Sarita. Velvet Sky kicked Taylor Wilde below the belt, unleashing a rage from Wilde. Wilde connected with a Lou Thesz Press and began punching Sky and pulling her hair. The referee separates them, giving Sky an opening to re-gain the upper hand. Sky and Rayne double team Wilde with a double russian leg sweep. TBP took advantage of the referee yet again as Lacey began flirting with him. Sarita had finally seen enough and climbed the top rope nailing a flying body press on Rayne. Wilde hit Sky with a big leg lariat. Sarita returns to the corner just as the referee turned back around. Wilde made the hot tag to Sarita who continued the assault on Sky. Wilde and Rayne both hit the floor after a hard clothesline from Wilde. Sarita slammed Sky to the mat, and for the ropes where she met the wrong end of Lacey's Ugly Stick! Sky rolled up Sarita to get the victory. </p><p> </p><p> ----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <em><span style="color:#FF0000;">Kevin Nash</span></em><em>, </em><em><span style="color:#8B0000;">Scott Hall</span></em><em>, and </em><em><span style="color:#FF8C00;">Sean Waltman</span></em><em>: The Band headed to the ring, slowly as usual.</em> </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">"We just want to make it clear.

EY ran right for his knees but was elbowed by Nash. Nash used his size and strength to slow down EY's offense. Nash makes the tag to Hall who attempts technical wrestling, but ends up just looking like an embarrassment to the profession. Nash is tagged back in, and the fans rejoice. Nash drills EY in the guy with his patented corner-knee strikes. EY fought back with a frustrated kick to the gut, and then reversing their positions. EY hit Nash with a flurry of strikes. EY backed up and charged...right into Nash's boot. Both men were winded, Nash makes his way to his corner...god help us here comes Scott Hall. Hall picked up EY and placed him in an abdominal stretch, which EY reversed sending Hall face first to the mat. EY slowly made his way...and made the hot tag to Abyss! The Monster Abyss sends Hall and Nash to the ground with punches, EY dropkicked Nash out of the ring. Hall charged at Abyss...Black Hole Slam! And the win! </p><p> </p><p> ----------------------------------------</p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <em><span style="color:#FF0000;">AJ Styles</span></em><em> makes his pyro-filled entrance.

Pope tagged Hardy in who hits a facebuster on AJ. Hardy tried to end it quickly with a Swanton Bomb but comes up with nothing but mat! AJ crawls to his corner but Sting was still recovering on the outside. Hardy dragged AJ to the middle of the ring and hit a leg drop to AJ's groin! Hardy tags in Pope while AJ squealed in agony. AJ begged Pope to backaway, and drilled him in the groin. AJ crawled over and made the tag to Sting. Sting knocked Pope to the ground with some right hands, but Hardy interjects and knocks Sting to the ground. Chelsea climbed on to the ring apron to distract the referee as Wolfe slid the TNA World Heavyweight Title into the ring next to AJ. AJ drilled Pope in the face with the TNA World Title! Pope knocked into the referee! Pope is out cold! AJ drilled Hardy as well! Wait! Here comes Kurt Angle! Kurt Angle is here! Angle Slam on AJ! Angle Slam on Sting!

Slagaholic Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 Jeremy Borash sits impatiently in his brand new office. Jeremy is waiting for the ratings to come in, and he hopes for a raise, or at least a stable number. Jeremy's phone finally rings. Jeremy Borash: What's the number? Steve Borden: What number? Jeremy Borash: Wait, who is this? Steve Borden: Stinger. Jeremy Borash: Oh hey Steve! Sorry I'm just waiting on the ratings. Steve Borden: I understand. Jeremy Borash: What'd you need? Steve Borden: I wanna talk to you about something that's troubling me. Jeremy Borash: What's wrong? Steve Borden: It's about Hardy and Moore Jeremy Borash: Oh **** what did they do? Steve Borden: Language Jeremy! Jeremy Borash: Sorry. Steve Borden: They haven't done anything wrong. They're just not putting themselves in the best situation Jeremy Borash: What's going on? Steve Borden: Last night they left with Terry, Nash, and the crew Jeremy Borash: Oh ****. Steve Borden: Jeremy! Jeremy Borash: Did they say where they were going? Steve Borden: Nope, but I do remember them screaming "we're going to get so 'F'd' up that we'll 'S' beer tomorrow morning." Jeremy Borash: Oh Jesus. Steve Borden: Jeremy! Jeremy Borash: I didn't curse! Steve Borden: Worse, you blasphemed! Jeremy Borash: Oh for Chr...chocholate's sake. Thanks for the info Steve, I can't do anything about it right now. Steve Borden: I know. Just keep an eye out. Jeremy Borash: Oh you know I will. Steve Borden: And keep an eye on that language. Jeremy Borash: Oh...you...see'ya Steve. DIRTSHEET DERBY WHO'S WRITING FOR TNA? Well Eric Bischoff apparently still has his hands in creative, but he has to run his information by a new head booker. The head booker's identity is still not known. And this writer is beginning to question if Bischoff's backstage "firing" was a work on the internet wrestling community. TNA'S IMPACT RATINGS FALL TNA Impact scored a .7 from last night's airing. A full .01 below their previous rating. Whether this will cause Dixie Carter to put the screws to finding a new head booker, time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slagaholic Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 For some reason my game has frozen on Friday Week 2 July. Nothing I've tried could move it forward, and I didn't handle the situation well. To put it succinctly, this diary is over . I've really enjoyed writing this one, and hope people like my style. I'm constantly refining it, as this is just my 2nd attempt at a diary. The last one stalled due to me being foolishly discouraged by lack of response, this one because the save froze and wouldn't progress. Hope this isn't giving me a reputation... Anywho, my next diary (will be Cornellverse based since I don't want to risk this happening again. Sorry if you enjoyed this diary and are disappointed in progressing. You're welcome if you thought this diary was craptacular and think I'm a ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHK1978 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I liked this diary, but you know how the old saying goes, Crap happens. I deleted my save for my old diary, so don't feel bad. Hopefully you will have better luck with the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagaholic Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 The other one should be up before the weekend, maybe even later today. I started working on it even before I made the post marking this one's ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
