Wacky TNA Title of the Week: Sting Speaks!
TNA Impact Begins…NOW!
-We get a video package on Sting and his most recent actions.
-Earlier today Sting arrived and Lauren tried to talk with him questioning if he will speak, he says tonight is the night.
-Tenay and West welcome us to the show and run down the card.
Awesome Kong w/Riesha Saeed vs. Sojourner Bolt (Josie from SHIMMER)
Some will know Josie from her work in SHIMMER, as well as her appearance in the Kong challenge on PPV a while back. Bolt has blond hair now, which doesn't help as Kong tosses her down. She comes back with rights, dropkicks and rocks Kong. That doesn't last long as Kong tackles her to the floor. Kong follows and tosses Bolt to the railing and then chokes out. Back in the ring, Bolt makes a comeback, leaps off of the 2nd rope and is leveled by Kong. Bolt avoids the spinning back fist and slaps Kong. Off the ropes, but Kong gets the spinning back fist. KONG BOMB and that is all.
Winner: Awesome Kong @ 3:00 via pin
This was a fine little match to show off Kong's dominance and to follow up on her destruction of Gail Kim last week. Josie (Sojourner) is a spunky face and looked good again working with Kong. The after match angle was also a good brawl.
RATING: *
-Kong beats her down after the match while Saeed gets her a few chairs and then sets them up. Kong looks for the bomb, but ODB rushes out and makes the save. She tosses a chair at Kong, tosses Saeed to the floor and then she and Kong brawl! Slick Johnson tries to break it up, fails and ODB gets a tornado DDT on Kong. Rights by ODB to a downed Kong as another ref is out and gets tossed away. Security is finally out to pull ODB off of Kong.
-JB is with AJ Styles. He will face Cage next week in a Four Ways to Glory Qualifying Match. As far as Cage goes, they have history. They were brothers, enemies and now they get along. He says that Cage is one of the best, and that they are both up to the challenge. Talk turns to Sting, and AJ says Sting is getting a receipt. He will let him speak, and then take his right hand and put it down Sting's throat. JB asks about the Gold Medal, and AJ says it is in good hands.
-Rough Cuts featuring Consequences Creed airs next, as he explains how he came to join TNA.
Petey Williams w/Rhaka Khan and Sheik Abdul Bashir vs. Consequences Creed and Jay Lethal
Jay and Bashir to begin. Lock up and to the corner they go, Bashir almost hit Williams and Jay takes control. Double sledge off of the top and a cover for 2. Tag to Creed, dual jabs to Bashir and they take Bashir down and Creed covers for 2. Bashir rams Creed to the corner, tags Williams and they beat down Creed in the corner. To the corner, reversal and a corner clothesline by Creed. To the apron and Khan pulls him to the floor. Williams to the floor and tosses Creed back in and covers for 2. Sidekick, jawbreaker and a spinkick by Williams all connect. A tag to Bashir and he lays the boots to Creed, chops follow and Creed fights back but gets slammed to the corner. Back to the corner and a tag to Williams, a slam and then the slingshot senton misses as Williams lands on the back of his head. Tag to Jay, he cleans house on Williams, cartwheel into the dropkick and a cover for 2 as Bashir made the save. Williams back in, Jay with the DDT/Flatliner combo to both men. Jay up top and Bashir tosses him off the top. Bashir up top and Williams grabs Jay, Creed tosses Bashir off the top into Williams. Jay rolls Williams up for the pin.
Winners: Consequences Creed and Jay Lethal @ 4:25 via pin
They did some good stuff, but it felt like doing stuff just in order to get to the miscommunication ending. It just lacked.
RATING: *½
-Williams and Bashir argue after the match. Refs are out to break them up. This looks familiar.
-Lauren is with ODB, who is drinking. ODB is more of a beast than Kong will ever be because she's one dirty bitch. She wants Kong to bring it hard because that's the way she likes it. This zoo isn't big enough for the both of them.
~KAREN'S ANGLE~
CHRIS PARKS, not Abyss is Karen's guest this week. It's a pleasure for him to be there, as he tosses some shit around and sits on the floor. The mental institution was a home to him. Abyss was a destructive force that destroyed people and dreams. He was taught to be Chris, a good person. Abyss is a part of him and is always trying to get out. He doesn't now what lies ahead for Abyss or Chris, but right now Chris and Abyss are one. He just wants to wrestle and he challenges anyone to wrestle him, he is rehabilitated. Chris asks Karen what she looks for in a man, since she is single and all. Snarling, whispering, or someone that screams! He wrote Karen a poem: "Your skin is golden, your eyes are brown, I can take you with me, but you can't make a sound. Not a cry, not a whisper, not a peep, like a pool of blood, my love is so deep. Oh Miss Angle, I can be your teddy bear, but just for now, accept this gift. RAAARRRRARARARAR! My hair."
-Kip James tries to fix Lauren as the Beautiful People bitch. She leaves and they say that they will face Wilde and Roxxi tonight. They are the Beautiful People and they are better than them and everyone else. The women want to be them and the men want to be with them. Love then says a lot of ladies would like to be with them as well, but they don't swing that way. She will face Wilde for the title at No Surrender, and tonight she will hurt her. At No Surrender, she will pin her cottage cheese ass. Sup catfight.
-JB is with Angle and Trigg. He calls Angle a FORMER gold medallist, and Angle gets pissed. He then says AJ used a guitar to steal his medals. He prays that AJ is here so he can whoop his ass in front of everyone. He won't sleep until he gets the medal back. JB informs Angle that AJ doesn't have the medal anymore, he tries to kill JB and Trigg pulls him off and says not to sweat the small stuff. Trigg has AJ and that wife of his, he won't leave like Tomko to try and be a Japanese shoot fighter, Kurt's problems are his problems, and he has his back.
-Funny statement by Trigg, considering he just came back from Japan, where he won his latest MMA fight at the Sengoku 4 show.
Jimmy Wave w/Hemme vs. Curry Man
They brawl on the floor, Hemme tries to distract Curry Man, does and Rave gets an STO on the apron. Back into the ring and Rave takes control with boots, and a cover for 2. Rave with a shoulder block, Curry Man battles back with chops and then a spinkick. Jabs by Curry Man, off the ropes and a backdrop by Curry Man. A clothesline follows, springboard cross body by Curry Man gets 2. Rave counters a suplex, Curry Man dances, off the ropes and a clothesline and then shining wizard by Rave connects and he covers for 2. Side back breaker by Curry Man, SPICE RACK and that is all.
Winner: Curry Man @ 3:30 via pin
I like both guys, but this just didn't click for me. At least they are building a feud, but then again, it isn't one I want on PPV.
RATING: *
-Hemme in and slaps Curry Man. Rock is in and as Curry Man fights him off Hemme gets a low blow. Black out by Rock and they beat down Curry Man. Hemme slaps Curry Man as they hold him, but here comes the rest of the Prince Justice Brotherhood. Super Eric and Sharky rush the ring, they clean house and save the day.
-Lauren is with Jim Cornette backstage. He says if Hemme wants to wrestle, then it will be the Prince Justice Brotherhood vs. Hemme, Rock and Rave at the PPV. Brooks is now in and Cornette says the offer she made is a deal. Cornette says they have enough Knockouts to make him crazy, and he needs her to be the Knockout Law here in TNA. He doesn't care what she does, but she needs to keep them out of her hair. This is not a popularity contest. Wrestlers are products, and when they are past their shelf life, then wish them well in their future endeavors and replace them. He then makes a joke about her tits saying that she'll never drown, and leaves. When Lauren asks what shelf life means, and Brooks says she may just find out.
-Back at Booker's locker room he has invited Team 3D to watch Sting's speech. Ray eats, and then argues over robe choices with Devon. This angers Booker, who tells them to sit and shut up. Booker says that there will be no guitar at No Surrender, and he will be victorious. They all drink champagne, Ray spills some and Booker yells at him.
-Tenay hypes No Surrender.
-JB is with Nash. They talk about the Four Ways to Glory Qualifying Match tonight, which could give Nash a world title shot. Nash says he did Cornette a favor a while back, and Cornette owed him. This is his payback. He tried to find Joe and talk to him, but he is chasing Sting. He will beat Kurt tonight so that he can watch Joe's back. If Joe isn't focused, Nash just may walk out world champion for the 6th time.
-Samoa Joe makes his way out to do commentary for the match.
Four Ways to Glory Qualifying Match: Kevin Nash vs. Kurt Angle
Joe says Nash is a man reborn as they have been working out together. Angle and Nash circle, Angle bails to the floor, complains that Joe is out here and then goes back into the ring. Lock up, elbows by Nash and then big rights. Off the ropes and Angle goes for a cross body, caught, slammed down but Nash misses the elbow drop. Rights and uppercuts by Angle, an Irish whip and reversal by Nash. A clothesline in the corner follows, and then a back breaker by Nash. He bends Angle over his knee and then goes into a cover for 2. Another cover for 2. We move to the Nash corner offense; knees, back elbows, posing, more elbows and Angle is down. To the other corner and Nash chokes out Angle with the boot, and we'll head to a commercial @ 3:00.
Back from commercial @ 8:00 and Angle is in control now, working the knees of Nash. Angle breaks him down to the mat, drops elbows on the knees and works a knee crank. Angle now applies the figure four-leg lock, and has Nash trapped in the center of the ring. Nash tries to turn the hold, but that fails. Joe's great on commentary here. Nash turns the hold, and gets the ropes. Angle right back to attacking the knees, but he runs into a side slam by Nash and BOTH men are down. They get to their feet, trade rights, and a short-armed clothesline by Nash. Snake eyes follows, lays Angle on the ropes and limps into the leg over the back choke. A shoulder block by Nash gets 2. To the floor they go, Nash SLAPS Joe and says to watch him. Joe is pissed and Nash is back in with Angle, big boot to Angle. Straps down, the ref tries to get rid of Joe, and this allows Angle to low blow Nash, Angle slam and that is all.
Winner: Kurt Angle @ 13:00 via pin
For a match without the smoke and mirrors, this is about as good as you can expect from Nash right now. They told a decent enough story, unfortunately it is the same one they have worked in every Nash match this year.
RATING: **
-After the match Joe and Nash argue, as Joe tells Nash to practice what he preaches. Nash leaves, and he may be crying.
-Tenay and West say that we have been speculating on the source of the guitar. Really?
-We then get a Jeff Jarrett video package, since he is synonymous with the guitar. God bless Jarrett, using that Hogan footage again. A damn fine video package actually.
-We get highlights of SoCal Val being injured last week at the hands of Jay Lethal. She has a black eye. Because of the foolishness she got hurt. If Jay and Sonjay want to fight over her, fine. They can hang the ring over the um, ring, and who ever gets it gets here. SOCAL VAL ON A FUCKING POLE MATCH! And people bitched when it was said at the beginning of their feud.
-We get a Knockouts video package.
The Beautiful People (Love and Sky) w/Kip James vs. Roxxi and Taylor Wilde
Roxxi and Love to begin, Roxxi tosses her down and Love talks with Kip James. Love back in, front facelock by Roxxi, into the arm ringer and tags in Wilde. Love runs away, Kip fixes her hair and she then makes her way back into the ring. Sky tags in and Wilde scares her, she falls and rights by Wilde follow. Jesus they blew a Thesz press, Velvet Sky sucks. To the corner, a whip and kicks by Wilde. Mounted rights, Kip distracts the ref and Love nails Wilde with the makeup case. Sky lays the boots to the gut of Wilde, chokes her in the ropes, snap mare and a kick to the back by Sky. To the corner, Love in as Roxxi is distracting the ref trying to get into help Wilde. Snap mare and a basement dropkick by Love, and then slams Wilde down by her hair. Love slams her down by the hair once again, and we head to a commercial @ 4:00.
Back from commercial @ 8:00 as Roxxi got the hot tag, she cleans house and is looking awesome in doing so. Sky blows a break up spot and about falls on her face, Roxxi rolls up Love for 2. Spinebuster by Roxxi for 2. Wilde and Sky brawl, and then I just saw the WORST cross body miss ever as Sky dove out of the way like, 10 seconds early. Kip James tosses in a spray bottle, Sky sprays it in the face of Roxxi as she goes for the Voodoo Crusher. Bicycle kick by Love and she gets the pin on Roxxi.
Winner: The Beautiful People (Love and Sky) @ 10:00 via pin
It had moments when it was good (Roxxi off of the hot tag) and moments where it looked very bad (when Sky and Wilde were in there). In the end with the commercial cut factored in, his was not good.
RATING: ½*
-Kip and the Beautiful People go to brown bag Roxxi, but Wilde slaps him and that leads to a beat down of Wilde. Kip gets scissors and they go to cut Wilde's hair, but RHINO of all people makes the save. I guess he's doing Taylor Wilde.
~MAIN EVENT INTERVIEW: STING SPEAKS~
Sting makes his way to the ring and says a few months ago he had an interview with Mike Tenay. He discussed his retirement, but he had a question. What would happen if he turned the business over to the next generation. It would be the end of TNA as we know it today. It would be a grave mistake, because they would spit in the face of TNA like they spit in his face. Joe had his opponent beat 1, 2,3; but he didn't take it, he bloodied his opponent. A jewel in wrestling, Booker T is a legend in this business. But Joe disrespected that and so he got involved, and he wanted to help Joe. He looked at Joe as someone who could carry the torch of TNA, but Joe rejected him and disrespected a man that paved the way for him. When he was Joe's age and Ric Flair took him under his wing. Flair believed him Sting like he believes in Joe. He respected Flair's peers who paved the way. AJ one day called him Mr. Sting, and now he calls him a coward and says he owes him something. Sting doesn't owe anyone anything. AJ owes him because he paved the way for him to be a wrestler. AJ should thank him for the chance to be a pro wrestler. Sting will not pay homage to this generation. They are a bunch of spoiled, rotten brats. One way or another, he will bring respect back into the business. He will be a babysitter, the parent that no one wants to listen to. If you think he's wrong, come tell him to his face.
AJ Styles now makes his way to the ring. He says that Sting is wrong, dead wrong. He looked up to Sting, he idolized him and never, EVER disrespected him. AJ says he helped get this company started. Sting says he wanted to help AJ, and that's why he got involved at Hard Justice. You cannot respect someone you call a coward. At Hard Justice, you took it one step too far with Kurt Angle. You could have walked away. Angle was a champion in WWE, a champion here, and has done something none of us have done, win an Olympic Gold Medal. Michael Phelps doesn't spit in Mark Spitz face, does he? I will give you my bat, turn my back and let you take it too me. Go ahead AJ, take it and I will turn my back. Use both hands AJ come on. AJ refuses and Sting shoves him. HIT ME OVER THE HEAD AJ! Some of them are asking you to do it AJ.
AJ turns Sting around, boot by Sting and he gets the scorpion death drop on AJ. That didn't work out as planned.
Jarrett's music hits….
End scene…
Remember to send your thoughts on the show for the 4R's!
I've always said even though he has been a career babyface Sting's WCW heel run even though it was in the twilight of WCW and he still got monster pops most of the time was amazing. He truly showed greatness on the mic as a heel.
He did it again here tonight. That was a money promo. That's the type of promo that puts asses in the seat. It wasn't even as if Sting had changed his character it all made perfect sense and it was all delivered magnificently.
Posted By: Tapp (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:11 PM
a little bit too much talking for me in this show but with that I still enjoyed the sting-aj promo and i'm interested to see where this old school,new school feud goes.
Posted By: cj (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:13 PM
Where are the tag team champs, Beer Money and Jackie??? With Gail gone they need to throw her in the mix of the knockouts division and hand out some classic old school beatings. Josie who??

That promo alone was the lone highlight of an otherwise blah show tonight. Since all of the WWE marks (re: 411 staff) went bonkers over the Edge-Foley promo I wonder if they will do the same for Sting-AJ.
Posted By: Orlando (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:25 PM
The same with the Nash promo from last week, Sting's promo tonight sets up an intriguing story and I like it. My only fear is that the faces will end up being the veterans when really i think it would be better for the young guys to play more of the face role.
Really I don't think they need divide the entire roster with the Young Guys vs the Veterans storyline. Simply have the issue revolve around Sting, Joe, Nash, and AJ, while heels like Booker T, Kurt Angle, and Team 3D play devil's advocate. If they build this to BFG with Sting vs Samoa Joe, it would be a story about respect. I have it mapped out in my head how it should play out, but rather than give and see where it goes.
Posted By: bighustle (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:26 PM
where are people getting the pole stuff from? a pole was never, ever mentioned. Sounds like a ladder match with the ring hanging above to me...
Posted By: tom (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:28 PM
heel sting rules... the thing is what he saying is truth...man its gonna be hard to get ppl to boo sting

As much as i hate this company, this was one of the better iMPACTS! in recent times.

To the clown who keeps talking about total time of wrestling this is what tv shows should be building up angles for ppv matches not just doing crappy matches and saying at least there was wrestling on the show like ECW did the other night.

it was an ok impact! but wtf is up with the so cal val storyline. that is just plain fucking retarded

Posted By: Guest#0278 (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:40 PM
Isn't Sting supposed to be the heel? He was getting cheered and doing what he did to Styles isn't going to change that.
And why should you cheer for Styles over Sting? He looked like an idiot and Sting looked look cool for calmly taking out a guy who had a weapon.
Posted By: Guest#5469 (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:47 PM
WTF @ star ratings...
Tonights Curry Man match was probably the most highflying match he's done since he arrived in TNA. It clicked w/ me, so to say it didn't click is surprising. I respect your opinion though.
Angle vs Nash was a decent match, but like you said unfortunately its the same Nash match that we've seen for a while. Although it was more intriguing to know that Nash could be in the match with Joe. I liked Joe's involvement in the segment as a guest commentator because he was able to put over that possibility and help validate Kevin Nash. The end was cool and sets up something for next week (god i hate spoilers). I know it sounds bad, but I kinda wanna see Nash vs. Samoa Joe...
I'm glad they found something to do with Kip James but idk if I wanna see him wrestling. Roxxi looked good in the Knockouts tag match. Unfortunately everyone else just seemed off their game. Idky Rhino came out to help save Taylor Wylde but I hope it doesn't turn into some type of love angle.
Idky Abyss was flirting with Karen, but but I hope it DOES turn into some type of love angle. (twisted)
The guitar promo was silly.
The Jeff Jarrett follow up promo made sense
I'm glad that they acknowledged the fact that AJ isn't really an Olympic Gold Medalist by having Kurt question what JB said. Kind of a backwards way to not insult the fans' intelligence.
Agreed completely about the Williams/Bashir vs Creed/Lethal match.
Posted By: bighustle (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:49 PM
Maybe they want to devide the audience with this storyline. More importantly, did they say Gail Kims sister was supposed to be 14 during the Kong match?
Posted By: WhiteRoom (Registered) on August 28, 2008 at 11:51 PM
Average show...some good things (The ladies tag match), some bad things (the prince jackass brotherhood...or whatever)...but Sting saved it all. I haven't heard him give a promo that good in a long time. He was self righteous, self assured, angry, and maybe most importantly, there was a touch of truth in everything he had to say. That's the mark of a veteran. He was so good that while he was obviously going for a heel pop, the crowd wouldn't fully bite. Tweener suits Sting quite well, actually. I'm guessing he'll stay on the fence for a while, at least.
It's actually too bad Sting's reaching new heights of awesomeness while he's likely on his way out. But he could give AJ Styles a career series of matches before he goes.

Posted By: ore24 (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 12:29 AM
What's the hell is Booker's new accent supposed to be? I thought it was part of his King Booker character but it has transgressed into some kid of African King accent. Whatever it is, it's annoying as all hell and makes for yet another campy character on the TNA roster.
Posted By: The Kid (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 12:40 AM
Decent show good build to the PPV. The women can work except velvet. ODB is over the top, Kong is a monster, and saeed is a laugh a minute! Tomko coming back, J-e-double F J--double r-e-double T - awesome! Mick ahve some fun! Chris Parks is a freak & Trigg is a good sidekick! AJ is coming back & we need the fallen Angel!
Posted By: Dr bob onit (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 01:50 AM
During the Booker T and Team 3D scene they very quickly flashed "whoissuicide.com" on the screen, but since I recorded this episode on VHS I was able to pause and catch it. I wonder where they're going with this.
Posted By: Chris (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 01:58 AM
I couldn't bring my self to watch the second hour of this show.

So Cal Val on a Pole Match - bwah ha ha ha... it can only be a PPV or two away.
Not watching TNA this Saturday, will be out instead. I'll probably have a better nightr without the Russo-Riffic Federation.

More importantly, did they say Gail Kims sister was supposed to be 14 during the Kong match?
Posted By: WhiteRoom (Registered) on August 28, 2008 at 11:51 PM
They did say Kong was trying to attack a 14 year old last week. I had no clue what the hell that was supposed to mean, as it pretty clearly looked like Gail's "sister" was an adult.
Posted By: Jeff (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 07:31 AM
"Isn't Sting supposed to be the heel? He was getting cheered and doing what he did to Styles isn't going to change that."
And why should you cheer for Styles over Sting? He looked like an idiot and Sting looked look cool for calmly taking out a guy who had a weapon.
Posted By: Guest#5469 (Guest) on August 28, 2008 at 11:47 PM
that seems to be the good thing so far seeing as i was against the heel sting at first but I always said i'd wait until it played out. You see, in wcw it just seemed like they tried to force-feed sting as a heel having him do stuff outside of character, but this time it's just seems like sting is gonna be the same ol sting going around doing whatever he wants to...whether the fans boo him or cheer him, it's looking like it's going to work out this time. Plus, the fans are gonna cheer styles,joe,etc. regardless so this is shaping up to be pretty good
Posted By: cj (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 09:00 AM

My personal highlight of Impact: Christy's glorious ass in that next to nothing skirt.
Posted By: Jake Fury (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 12:14 PM
I don't think it would be hard to make the veterans heel for this, just thing, Sting is saying they disrespected the veterans for going too far, but look at all the things the veterans did. Angle and 3D have tried to break Rhino's neck and put Christian through a glass table, Sting and Booker are attacking people with bats, Angle has tried to end AJ's career. Why is it okay for the veterans to do this stuff and not the young blood? Hell, what the veterans have done is a lot worse and have provoked Joe and AJ into it.
Then look at the other side, AJ was right, he helped build this company and guys like 3D, Angle, Sting and Booker came in and were treated like royalty while AJ had to earn his way and was thrown by the wayside for the "names".
Posted By: Curtis (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 12:50 PM
the thing about sting is he was at his most popular when he just went around and did whatever he wanted. The way they are booking him now he is headed back in that direction now and i cant wait to see sting bash aj joe and jarrett with the bat

"I've always said even though he has been a career babyface Sting's WCW heel run even though it was in the twilight of WCW and he still got monster pops most of the time was amazing. He truly showed greatness on the mic as a heel."
Not much of a heel if you get cheered.
Posted By: Guest#3051 (Guest) on August 29, 2008 at 01:25 PM
I just don't think AJ trying to hit Sting with the bat whether or not he spun Sting around to face him comes off as a face move. It looks like this is going to become a huge confusion tweener situation like we had in WCW. Fans won't understand who are actually the good guys. Is it the veterans hell bent on receiving respect or the TNA youngsters who have been building TNA from the ground up. Let's face it you have legends like Sting, Nash, and Kurt on one side and Jeff Jarrett leading a bunch of guys who have jumped back and forth between heel and face so many damn times that it's hard for an uber-fan like myself to follow sometimes on the other. The storylines flourish when there is a clean cut villain. Fans should not be given this much free will to decide who is right. We are collectively morons who love to insist that we know what is best, but behind closed doors are really thankful that Vince tells us what to believe most of the time. This situation is making my head hurt.

Ok, now can somebody please straighten things out for me, I haven't watched impact! for a while until lately and im very, very confused... first of all aj is ultimo babyface and wins kurts gold medal (why would they have aj retain the medal the following week?), why is aj and kurt angle involved with the sting saga (i thought it was joe and sting? and how/why is jeff jarrett getting involved?), one week aj is super face and then he gets bood as a heel against sting and a face jeff jarrett is helping out heel face aj against face heel sting? and then a face aj will face heel trigg and wtf, booker t and joe are still going at it in the mean time while sting and jarrett are getting involved for no reason? wtf?

why do we always have to be told who the heel is? cheer who you want and boo who you want. one of the biggest problems with wrestling these days is writers trying to tell the fans how to react. they should be reacting to us.

Here's what i find ironic. Many fans of the IWC are said to be "smart," yet they need to be coddled and it has to be made perfectly clear who the faces and who the heels are. I wish we as wrestling fans could finally evolve/ Cross the Line and realize that not everyone is a cleancut face or a cleancut heel. Sure you can establish a good vs evil dynamic, but that doesn't mean that the good guy is always gonna be virtuous and that the bad guy doesn't have a sensible motive. Think of it like a movie; the protagonist isn't always the holiest person.
We're smarter than this.

Dear lord...ODB makes me sick...She is the single most horrendous disgusting TV personality on any show that airs at a normal hour.

Other than that TNA is just fine.

Tna cant compete when they put on shows like that,ECW puts on more wrestling in an hour than TNA does in two!
ECW this week looks like
Finlay vs Chavo
Matt Hardy vs Miz
John Morrison vs Evan Bourne
Mark Henry vs Super Crazy
This is epic win for ECW, TNA cannot compete with the talent on this roster!
TNA=EPIC FAIL!
