JoeDirt Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Didn't see this posted anywhere... "After debuting at the Victory Road PPV, Randy Savage called up TNA officials this afternoon and pulled out of all future appearances. According to one source, Savage claimed the company had a "unsafe working environment" stemming from Savage's meeting backstage with Hulk Hogan at the PPV. According to the source, when Savage blew off Hogan backstage during their brief conversation, Hogan offered to step outside and settle their differences, or to let everything be in the past. Savage ignored the comment and walked away. Savage, who made a cameo appearance at the end of Victory Road, had been scheduled to appear at tonight's Impact! taping. The Turning Point PPV was originally scheduled to feature Randy Savage & Monty Brown & AJ Styles vs. Jeff Jarrett & The Outsiders in the main event on 12/5, but with Savage bolting, that is out the window. credit: PWInsider.com"
CubbyBr Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 This could be a blessing in disguise for The Truth. He could really step into a main role by being on the "TNA dream team" with Styles and Brown. I'm thinking that they're going to stick Jeff Hardy in that slot though.
{''({o..o})''} Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Ouch... Hmm, anybody know why Sting wasn't used in his spot?
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Well, that sure was a wise investment.
Lil' Bitch Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 So when Hogan finally takes up to Savage's "Be A Man" remark, Savage bails out? Fucking unbelievable.
Guest The Shadow Behind You Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Good. Now just go Brown Vs Jarrett straight up. Outsiders Vs 3LK is a credible Co-Main event. Styles/Petey Re-Match. That's a much better PPV to sell.
TNABaddboi Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 This could be a blessing in disguise for The Truth. He could really step into a main role by being on the "TNA dream team" with Styles and Brown. I'm thinking that they're going to stick Jeff Hardy in that slot though. Yeah, I'd like to see Truth in that spot, but they probably want some "starpower" to anchor that team, so unless Sting comes in, I'm almost positive that Hardy will be there. Good. Now just go Brown Vs Jarrett straight up. Outsiders Vs 3LK is a credible Co-Main event. Styles/Petey Re-Match. That's a much better PPV to sell The semi-main is going to be the Six Sides of Steel Match and Petey is most likely going to work with Sabin at the PPV, so these don't look likely.
Corey_Lazarus Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Hey, TNA, here's a hint: DO NOT PUT ANYBODY ON YOUR PROGRAMMING WITH BIG PLANS FOR A BIG ANGLE THAT INVOLVES THEM WITHOUT HAVING A LEGALLY BINDING WRITTEN CONTRACT WITH THEIR SIGNATURE ON IT FIRST. Hogan fucked them over like this, and now, so has Savage.
slimm44 Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Really it is TNA's mistake. Everyone knows the hate between Savage and Hogan, so why would they invite both guys to the show. You should have kept them apart from each other. Obviously Savage couldn't take being in the same company/arena with Hogan so why would he stay? EDIT: It didn't mention this but did he take Hardy with him? lol had to put that in there
Guest Ronnie755 Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Savage's excuse for pulling out of TNA is lame if this doesn't indicate that Hulk Hogan might soon be working for TNA. This shouldn't even matter if its not for certain that Hogan will show up. Could there be something fishy going on here?
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Good, I hope the money they were using on him went to the surprise on Impact.
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 NOTE: READ THE TNA TURNING POINT THREAD I done called this one yo...........
Guest bigrockstar Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Now we know it`s Savage that fears Hogan.....
Guest LooneyTune Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Maybe TNA can somehow get Hogan to come in...we know Hogan can at least still wrestle (Savage has the broken hip or something), and at least hasn't made an ass out of himself with a stupid CD....recently. If they have Hogan in the 6-man, I will pay for the PPV.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Savage is just a disaster in the ring. Anyone who saw his performance at the 2000 Dome Show will be quick to tell you Savage has no place ever getting in the ring again.
geniusMoment Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Damn, I was hoping to see Luger and Savage work a match together.
Corey_Lazarus Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 I don't care if that was a joke. Say that again and I'll kill you. </Swiggy's mother after finding out her son WASN'T straight after all>
pgi86 Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Well...I can`t say I`m sorry Savage is gone.TNA is better off without him.
Guest Frank_Nabbit Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 So Savage's last match will go down as taking on Pat Tanaka for a Website?
Guest Frank_Nabbit Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Savage is just a disaster in the ring. Anyone who saw his performance at the 2000 Dome Show will be quick to tell you Savage has no place ever getting in the ring again. I require more info
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 He made a royal ass out of himself before the match and then couldn't even do the most basic of moves right. And to cap it off Rick Steiner fell off the top rope onto the floor because he slipped.
Guest Frank_Nabbit Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 What was the actual match? And how did he make an ass of himself?
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Just stalled forever. He would pose and then he was yelling at the announcer for some reason or other. I think it took at least 10 minutes from the time the bell rang for him to even consider actually trying to wrestle. It was him against Rick Steiner.
SamoaRowe Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Well, I can't say I'm surprised! He lasted longer than I expect Hall to though.
Guest Duncan Eternia Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Good news...you just know that TNA was drooling over the possible "dream" match of Hogan vs. Savage.
SamoaRowe Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 So much for Savage demanding Hogan to "Be a Man."
syxx2001 Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Hogan wasnt invited, he came with Brian Knobbs. Sting didnt have a contract and that worked out.
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 Sting didnt have a contract and that worked out. Sting, as probably one of the few Christians in wrestling to actually be serious about it, kept his word. Savage didn't.
Guest fanofcoils Posted November 10, 2004 Report Posted November 10, 2004 www.nwatna.com/multimedia/live/2004/11/07/gal2/large/77.jpg I think that Savage pic is a nice one to scare little kids away.
