When did they start officially calling it "Kryptonite" on this show?

Yeah I've noticed that too, but he did speak with it for quite awhile on TV.

Do you mean the "Come as You Are" ripoff Raven used in WCW?

Not to mention it looks like he's being bent over and taking it up the tailpipe in that pic.

Well messing with the net fans or not he's giving TNA much needed publicity.

The problem isn't necessarily that Jarrett can't wrestle, because he can. It's that outside of TNA most fans don't take Jarrett seriously. An outsider would look at TNA and say, "Jeff Jarrett is their champ? Could they not find anyone better?" and they will then assume that the rest of the roster must suck in comparison. I'd almost say a younger, lesser known, wrestler as champ might make a bigger impact on an outsider to TNA. Atleast then they can say, "Hmmm I wonder if this guy is any good," as opposed to having pre-conceived notions. Let's say someone like Monty Brown or Samoa Joe were TNA Champ, then the outsiders would want to check him out to see what he was like. Most fans not familiar with TNA, when they think Jarrett either think "that country singer/wrestler guy from the mid 90's" or "that guitar swinging guy from WCW's crappy later years."

But you won't get a mass amount of wrestlers jumping ship until TNA has the financial backing to pay all of them. Right now TNA hasn't even moved up to touring around the country yet. One or two here and there is alright, but they wouldn't be able to handle a handful of big names just yet.

It's not like WWE won't take him back later down the road anyway even if he did go to TNA. As long as he doesn't cut some scathing shoot interview about how WWE is the worst company ever.

Well I'm not saying they spend Christmas together or anything, but if he respects Christian and thinks WWE should have kept him, he might try and give him a boost by promoting the PPV he's going to be on so to possibly boost the buyrates. If people see Jericho promoting the PPV and hear him promoting TNA wrestlers more might buy it.

Do you think it's possible that Jericho is hyping the TNA PPV because of the heavy rumors that Christian is going to be there? Especially since he keeps name dropping Christian in the interview and his website. It's like he's trying to give his good friend a boost. And it's possible that since he's good friends with Christian he already knows that Christian is going to be at the TNA PPV.

I swear that chick is possessed or something. I kept waiting for her head to spin around in the previews I saw (I didn't watch the show, but the previews showed enough for me to get the gist).

Check out the "commentary" section there on his site for some more interesting tidbits from Jericho.

Of course you could say the WWE Style of basically wrestling the same match every time comes off just as choreographed as well. As great as Benoit is, under the WWE Style you can pretty much guess Benoit's matches move for move before they happen. I think Benoit coming to TNA would allow him to work with wrestlers of different styles and show a whole new side of him we've either never seen or haven't seen in awhile and maybe in the process bring something out in the wrestlers he faces. Ahh now I'm switching my vote...no I'll stick with Jericho because like I said he would still be the easier aquisition and perhaps the better asset all around.

Actually isn't it "Schiavonne" with two "N's"?? EDIT: Nevermind it is just one "N"

I went with Jericho. Benoit I think is better off staying in WWE, while Jericho has shown lately that he doesn't necessarily need wrestling so much that he would go for the big money. If he wanted to he could work for a smaller company and help them out because he's obviously living comfortably away from wrestling right now. In other words Jericho would be the easier aquisition for TNA and could be a big help. I could easily see Jericho winning the NWA Title, it would definitely be an improvement over Jarrett.

"Wanted Dead or Alive" would be perfect for AMW and those sound like the right lyrics to me. Jarrett should go back to using the "Cowboy" rip off he had at the end of WCW. I thought it sounded a lot better than that annoying song he has now. I'm at a loss for everyone else. What did some of the other talent use in ROH and such?

Technically they could end the brand split, but still showcase the talent between two shows pretty well. Shift things around so that between the two shows they get their midcarders in equal amount of time, or close to equal. With all the quittings, firings, and letting go's they are probably down to a low enough number to make it work.

I found all but that last match listed on Limewire if anyone's wondering. Just look them up and you can download them. EDIT: I just watched all the matches I downloaded from that list. That was my first time to see a Samoa Joe match and I'm hooked. I'm serious I think he could make the transition to WWE and make it! I think most of his moveset could be kept intact in WWE and he could adapt to the WWE Style. If Vince doesn't misuse him he might just make it in WWE someday. I haven't heard any of his promos yet though.

Catchphrases/Trademark gestures Likes to smoke cigars backstage Has a very old school attitude towards things (likes to settle things with a good old fashioned fight, usually in the ring, but sometimes elsewhere.) History/Background/Career Highlights Parka grew up in California and spent a lot of time wrestling there and in Mexico. While in Mexico he became good friends with La Parka (the original, not the newer one) and was trained by him. The Parka isn't necessarily a high flier, but La Parka did teach him a respect and love of the wrestling business along with a great work ethic. Parka is best known for being one half of the tag team The Dream Machines with Peter Knight (and originally Shattered Dreams as well). The Dream Machines are two time tag team champions who are best known for their vicious feud with Totally Endorsed. A feud which included the famous Wal-Mart Brawl and the Glass Tables Match. This feud left The Parka with multiple scars on his back and arms from the numerous trips through panes of glass. Lately Parka has been working to overcome a back injury suffered during the one night only Dream Machines reunion against The Machine in a cage match. During this time he hasn't had much time to keep the El Camino in good shape and it has fallen into disrepair. He also has fallen somewhat into debt and is hoping to rejuvinate his career so he can pull his life back together.

There's nothing wrong with the Bon Jovi cover. Is it boring? Yes, but not the worst cover ever.

Usless info, but did anyone notice that The Dicks theme music sounds an awful lot like a sped up/jazzed up version of Crush's theme music from his bleach blonde days?

Based on...? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Power Rankings telling me so...duh. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Trish is possibly the best WWF/E Women's wrestler ever, but out of any organization you'd have to put a lot of the amazing japanese women wrestlers over her.

Honestly all you saw was her asscrack, and it really can't be called a "slip" since her outfit was made to show off the crack.

I noticed that Styles on commentary tends to help even the crap be bearable sometimes. I'm glad they hired him. It was a good RAW this week.

Umm Styles...they aren't censoring it.
