It's on the local news here. Some guy kept saying that he called 9-11. No, dumbass, you called 9-1-1. -
TNA still does a fair amount of traffic, and it's the #2 wrestling fed out there. It should be kept as its own folder. Throw everything into General. I never got how you can claim to disdain mega-threads, yet you created the MLB Offseason Thread, which is a megathread. Can a mod/admin please explain this? I loved having it in the General Wrestling folder, since it fit the folder's discussion aim more, and you had a core group of posters. It was moved to the WWE folder despite zero people asking for it, with no reason given besides we wanted to. It should be moved back, since no one wanted it moved in the first place. WWE TNA Gen Wrestling with a 24-7 subfolder. MMA Everyone wins!
-
It should be merged with General Wrestling. TNA should have its own folder, since it's become an established brand- they have a two hour weekly show, monthly PPVs, etc. The only thing really to discuss would be the random Puro threads, and when someone starts a thread about an ROH show, and that would work fine in General.

Nancy Haag must hate her life.
-
Given that TNA is its own thing (2-hour show, monthly PPV, etc), I feel overseas/indy would be more suited for the General folder.
-
I like that she had to call someone Virgil, given that she was Steph's Virgil.

They can't go back to Winnipeg because the geniuses who built the MTS Centre decided to build an area that couldn't accommodate an NHL franchise. Send them to Hamilton. I'd say Quebec City, but I think the fact that the city is all Francophone would make it hard to attract free agents.

He also is a homophobe, making his brain tumour karmic justice.

They filmed that movie at my university
-
Agreed. Austin had to win, it's just that like 1995, the starpower is really lacking
-
The Coyotes are locked in a terrible lease in Glendale and are rumoured to be having trouble making payroll. A lot of people are saying that they are not long for Phoenix.
-
It was more for discussing indie promotions. We probably don't need that one anymore, since a lot of the indie posters have moved on, and not many people talk about ROH anymore. We could probably move that to General Wrestling
-
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. No, that was not a good time to bust out that quote. Also, your youtube video no longer works.

I wouldn't say that Venk has helped rebuilt the WWE folder, but he's done a good job as a mod. I like that he's willing to go into the General Discussion threads and spin things off into seperate topics, which helps generate more discussion. Previous mods (htq) would just shuttle everything into Comments That Don't Warrant a Thread, which just made the folder one big mess of a thread. That's pretty false reasoning. First off, I wouldn't say wrestling sucks right now. I've really enjoyed the WWE product as of late, and while it will never be as good as the glory year of 2000, they put together a good product. I've always found the arrogance of posters looking down at the wrestling folders to be one of the things that bothered me most about TSM. Yes, you may think wrestling is stupid, that's great. But there's a lot of people who still enjoy watching and discussing it. It's like how you look down on the movie folder, because everyone loves The Dark Knight, and you just happen to not like Batman. This is stupid. You never post in the folders, let alone go into them, and you just want to blindly close them because of the stigma that wrestling attaches.

Eddie and Rey feuded over Dominic, Chavo and Rey feuded over Chavo being bitter that Rey was able to dedicate matches to Eddy and win them. Vicki got involved causing more shenanigans, that resulted in her heel turn
-
Even though I'm a big Cena fan, I really don't like this match. Yes, the heat is off the charts, but I find the majority of the match to be Cena just boringly working over RVD.
-
MLB Network showed Nine Innings from Ground Zero. Watching it knowing the Yankees lose just makes it so hilarious.
-
People are discussing what you said, bif. You said Cena is terrible and said he should be hated like Triple H, and people are justifiably jumping to his defence. And Cena's easily one of the best wrestlers in the company. Most people have come around to that.
-
A lot of the Cena hate is so unwarranted. Yes, the promos they script for him can be cringeworthy at times but he backs it up in the ring and I admire how far the guy has improved. He was terrible in 2003 and look how good he's become.
-
Given that Mickie was talking about the blizzard on RAW, that's pretty interesting
-
Yea, Backlash 2000 is fantastic, one of the best PPVs of all time.
-
He was a future Hall of Famer? I don't know, I liked the guy a lot but I was never that sold on him. I wouldn't mind to see the Braves give him a shot- wouldn't hurt.

I didn't like the Calgary airport too much.
