  1. The last thing fans remember is the main event. June 18th, 2003- Raven, Sting and Jarrett all posing in the ring together as the crowd goes wild. That's good. February 26th, 2003h- Russo threatens to beat up kids. That's bad
  2. They did. Jerry Lawler won the match but then the Extreme Horsemen turned on him. Funk bled buckets
  3. TWO R'S. Not one. Two. Thank you
  4. Yea- If I saw the Funker I would probably mark out like crazy. I can't believe that he still goes out there and does crazy shit and bleeds a gusher on the indy scenes
  5. Yea- Rob is a hypocrite in that area. All my experiences (and my friend- who buys a lot from them) with them have been very positive. While $20 may seem a lot- You get a lot of bang for your buck.
  6. Yes- Abby runs Abby's House of Ribs in Atlanta. He recently worked ICW in New York on July 18th against Louie Ramos. Abdullah actually faced Terry Funk at one of the most recent MLW shows- it was a total bloodbath.
  7. Everytime I've talked to Rob Feinstein he did not come off as a fuckhead. By buying ROH tapes from RF Video you're helping the promotion and the workers. Why would you want to hurt a promotion that puts on a high quality product with great wrestlers just because of your thoughts on the owner?
  8. But getting your videos from a tape dealer hurts Ring of Honor. If everyone bought tapes from a tape dealer then they wouldn't be in business. I understand the proce may be a bit high but you're helping an indie promotion, an alternative to WWE survive
  9. Abdullah the Butcher is 67.
  10. Terry Funk is 59. He turns 60 next June
  11. Funk is still wrestling all over the world. He wrestlers for 3PW and MLW and various indies across the country

  13. You get a lot of bang for your buck- pretty much the best wrestling in North America
  14. But in a way you're justifying their behaviour when there really is no justification. But why bring in a guy like Mabel who has been reviled by TNA's core fanbase? That's stupid. I think it was that Raven wouldn't sign a contract because he and Jarrett had major problems with each other. The fact remains that they botched the biggest match in history and killed Jarrett's heat and pissed off a majority of the banbase. We had to sit through the Glen Gilberti blowjob show and have to deal with Jarrett v. Gilberti. . But you would think they would've taken the hint. They didn't for a long time. They got LUCKY that AMW puts on crowd pleasing matches The fact that- a) Someone considered bringing him in. b) Someone okayed this idea. c) Someone paid his transportation and paid him d) All this occured on a show whose fanbase is pretty much the IWC e) And a show that people paid $10 for speaks volumes. I believe I was bitching about it the first week it happened. It was a waste of airtime, a waste of money and a waste of talent. Having to endure TNA's version of the 5.5 Nash v. HHH brawl and Jarrett pathetically attempting to try and get himself over as a babyface was bad enough. I'll be SHOCKED if Daniels goes over cleanly- but if he does- I will give Jarrett some props. I don't recall too many people being happy with their three minute specials and inconclusive ending.
  15. Not his main event push. He was still there. Considering TNA is a show that caters to internet fans- why would they bring him in? It's just stupid booking. It seemed like the fans loved being jipped out of a catfight week and week. Great use of Luscious as well. If you're going to do angles like that- show titties or don't do it at all. And don't waste money bringing in people like Luscious. That's a nice theory but the fact remains that people are sick of Jeff Jarrett. Either a heel turn, a character change (Wow- Russo screwed him again) or some time off would really help him. He's stale. But there was never a convincing winner. Even the blowoff match had a screwjob ending, neither man came out of it looking any better and Justin Credible hasn't been seen since. Well it did badly hurt their heat for a long time. Witness the cage match where they had to put on a MOTYC to get the crowd behind him. You may have liked it but the fact remains- the majority of the fans did not and it did some damage. So that makes everything both men are doing a-okay? Other people doing it does NOT make it okay.
  16. Jarrett v. Raven. Bringing in Mabel. Glen Gilbertti's mega push. Jeff Jarrett in general. The TNA ladies feud. It took them FOREVER to go: Hey- maybe we shouldn't break up AMW. You had to put up with the ongoing saga of Simply Luscious/girl v. TNA girls. The riveting Jarrett v. Legend feud Jerry Lynn v. Credible I could name more.... Bullshit- Unless they had HEAVY promotion- I don't see them drawing that. And considering most of the shows are not that good- they won't get word of mouth.
  17. People are more used to the WWE product. They know occasionally WWF/E can deliver a fantastic pay per view because they've done it before. People are also more familar with WWE and have more of an attachment to their favourite wrestlers. The show may suck but damn- Regal beat Edge! With NWA- there isn't that much familiarity. The show is headlined by WWF/WCW castoffs (Jarrett, Raven, D-Lo, Douglas) and people you've never heard of (Low Ki, AJ) So when a TNA show sucks it's like: Ah well- whatever. There's no emotional attachment to the wrestlers- Low Ki lost to AJ because of a bat? Oh okay. Whatever. Angle pins Brock to win the title at Vengeance! YAY! ANGLE WON!!! But how will this affect their friendship? Damn- I can't wait to see Smackdown to see what happens next. While if a WWE show sucks you know that maybe in a month they'll put together another Vengeance or your favourite wrestler will win a big match.
  18. You really don't want to know mole. Just a lot of stuff about your mother
  19. I'm just pointing out other Nash non suckery affairs. His match with Goldberg at Spring Stampede (where everyone was feeling it) also is another match I remember. You're not very good at getting your sarcasm across. Well you're a moron in general but calling someone a mark and trying to act all high and mighty takes the cake. Your life is so exciting that you took the time to respond to me. Bravo
  20. You know- I bet the mods were thinking of not banning beefeater's IP. I'm glad mole is here to let them know that, yes, his IP should in fact be banned
  21. Well, between their Wrestlemania and Vengeance matches they've yet to disappoint us yet... Same here. I haven't been dissapointed by any of the Angle v. Lesnar encounters that Slapnuts brought up. If they keep the Vince interference to a minimum- the match should be great.
  22. No- People should keep the presale to themselves. It's very easy to find out what the presale is- figure it out
  23. That was a work
  24. In Your House V Don't forget Razor Ramon. Nash also has had decent affairs with Giant and Taker. And you're calling him a mark? Criticise Nash's awful in ring ability all you want- but don't make idiotic statements like that. Moron...
  25. Dames gave the bat shot one 4.5
