KO

RAW was really, really solid last night imo. We now have a proper Rusev/Lana split, another chapter in the Rollins/Ambrose rivalry, Kevin freakin' Owens come out to destroy Cena and Triple H & Stephanie were back together (The Authority get a lot of hate, but I love those two together).

The tag team segment was pretty cool, I really like Titus, that guy should be pushed towards the IC Title imo.

Things I'd like to see going forward: Get rid of J&J Security. They're good fun but I feel they have run their course. End this Rollins/Kane angle once and for all as well.

Payback was an ok ppv, forgettable fluff, but there was nothing that really bored me. For the second ppv in a row (after 3 consecutive great ones) I found the main event a little underwhelming. Rollins is still not clicking for me as world champion, I think being the one after Brock is a pretty tough job.

[DomDom1984]

I really enjoyed the main event after a really tedious opening few minutes. All four guys have got pretty good chemistry with each other and they got a good chance to show it.

[When Jokers Attack]

Still got to finish off watching Payback. Seemed like a decent ppv.

[luckysalt]

I fell asleep during Payback and have no intention of going back to it.

WWE hitting us fast with these PPV's theres 3 in a span of 6 weeks. Payback, Elimantion Chamber then MITB?

Global Force Wrestling has become a total no go area for me already, and they haven't even put on a show yet.

Looking at that roster, who would you make your first world champion?

I mean christ, fucking Hacksaw Jim Duggan!!! and the design on the website, looks SO amateur.

How on earth do they have more shows planned than TNA though???

[DomDom1984]

I'd have Chris Masters as the champ, since he's leaps and bounds ahead of the majority. You could make an argument for Karl Anderson though I think.

[GodlikeYeezus]

Shelton Benjamin?

[DomDom1984]

Suppose he'd be a credible choice in that roster. Even ROH didn't want anything to do with the guy after a while though.

For Elimination Chamber, where do you see Reigns and Orton being placed? They wont be in any IC or US title match, and there is only really Bray Wyatt as a big enough heel for either of them to face. Well apart from Kane but thats overdone to hell. I cant see them facing each other either, just another repeat.

One very good bit

A 60 second Shield reunion.

Kane and Big Show

The wife and I are going to RAW in Glasgow for our anniversary. Really looking forward to it! It's only the second live show I've been to and if Ambrose, Reigns and Rollins are there, I'll be like a child again!!

SAMOA JOE!

Sasha/Becky was outstanding.

Shame the rest of the show wasn't.

Thought it was very good but not one of the best specials.

[Andre91]

Sasha Banks is the most solid worker in all of NXT by some way imo. She delivers every single time. Surely it is only a matter of time before she is called up to the main roster.

Becky Lynch is also a very, very good wrestler. And she's hot as hell but I digress

It was cool to see Samoa Joe. BUT. What was with that music? Surely they could have come up with something better than that ?

And TNA is finished!!!!!

Again.

Although this time for sure. Right?

I dunno why you would put a huge smiley face next to that? Why you've consistantly posted in here to slag off TNA for years and take pride when they fail I don't know.

Im a wrestling fan, have been since the 80's. I watch as much wrestling as I can, I go to indie shows, I want all wrestling promotions to thrive.

That being said Dixie has run TNA into the ground, she's been naive, she's let far too many people influence her, and in the end she really has had no idea how to run a wrestling company.

Since Jarrett left its been awful, its had no direction, the match quality is down, the titles are worthless, the characters are poorly put across, the fact that every show is taped and the atmosphere of each show, the look, everything about it.

WWE have the network, they have Raw, Smackdown and if you want an alternative there is NXT. Thats 3 days of the week you can watch new wrestling. TNA needs to be REALLY good to try and get peoples eyes on the product and its not, it stinks.

Its a shame, they have some great talent on the roster, EY is still a highlight, he is so good at what he does.

TNA's downfall is they create stars and then what? They make them look shit.

Jeff Hardy a bonifide main event and house hold name, they make he be willow or stick him in a tag team with Matt.

Kurt Angle the best pure wrestle they have, stick the title on him and then have him have garbage matches

Lashley, they worked very hard making him into a legit badass. Then they take him off tv. Im not sure what they're doing with him.

Austin Aires was fantastic as champ, the fans loved him, he had amazing matches, they took him off tv or put him in lower midcard

Bobby Roode is drifting again

James Storm you get him to be world title level, a huge fan favourite then you drop him to lower midcard and then turn him heel in a stupid gimmick that isn't over AT ALL

Abyss you make a office suit pussy

MVP is just horrible

AJ Styles you give a revamp and make him the most interesting thing on the show and then you let him leave AS CHAMPION!

Magnus you build up to world title level for months, let him win the title in a clusterfuck making him look weak, then you make him a pussy, then he drops the title and hes back to lower midcard

Bully Ray you make him the focal point of the company, take away his stable in an awful way, drop him to midcard and let him leave

Even Anderson was over as champion, you let him get rid of his trademark blonde hair, look like a tramp and lower midcard

It goes on and on and on.

EC3 is the only thing they are doing right.

Bram has momentum, could be something great too.

BUT they need to build people to main event and leave them there. instead of hot potato world title.

Even IF TNA is dropped, they COULD get a new network, or they could go IPPV.

But I imagine it would be a drastically different company, end of the day, Dixie needs to walk away and let someone else run that company for her, she hasn't a clue.

It was sad when WCW died, it was sad when ECW died. TNA does not deserve to be number 2 promotion, its been bad decision after another, they could very clearly die. But I hope it doesn't. I want it to become great again. Mid 2000's TNA was brilliant. Plus all in all, I want those wrestler's to have jobs.

[luckysalt]

Just saw TNA have posted this.

“It has come to our attention that several internet news sources have falsely attributed statements to TNA, its executives and broadcasting partner. These false statements constitute defamation and if necessary we will seek all legal remedies available to us.”

[When Jokers Attack]

Since Jarrett left its been awful, its had no direction, the match quality is down, the titles are worthless, the characters are poorly put across, the fact that every show is taped and the atmosphere of each show, the look, everything about it.

I think it's unfair to say TNA has been awful since Jarrett left. Over the last 12 months I have enjoyed Impact more than any other weekly wrestling show. A lot more focused on wrestling and have been some amazing episodes, that whole run in New York last July/August and the UK shows from earlier this year.

Jeff Hardy a bonifide main event and house hold name, they make he be willow or stick him in a tag team with Matt.

I've enjoyed the Hardys run since they started teaming up again, everytime they seem to be gaining momentum something happens though, Jeff not being able to do the UK tapings and now out injured. The series of matches they done with the Dudleys and Wolves was the best tag team stuff we have seen in TNA since AJ/Angle vs Kaz/Daniels

Lashley, they worked very hard making him into a legit badass. Then they take him off tv. Im not sure what they're doing with him.

I think he is training for his next Bellator fight

Austin Aires was fantastic as champ, the fans loved him, he had amazing matches, they took him off tv or put him in lower midcard

Austin Aries booking has annoyed me for a long time now, he was the main guy in 2012 and hasn't really done much since, I can't even think of one memorable feud he has had since then.

James Storm you get him to be world title level, a huge fan favourite then you drop him to lower midcard and then turn him heel in a stupid gimmick that isn't over AT ALL

One of their worst decisions booking wise was not having him win the title at Lockdown against Roode, was a very good match until that bullshit finish.

They are taping tv before Slammiversary which is a stupid move, spoilers will be all over the internet before the show even airs live.

The Cena US open challenge segments are nauseating, everything that winds the rest of the world up about the states.
