OAO 12/3 TNA Impact! Thread

Recommended Posts

I think the problem with the lack of wrestling is, this is supposed to be a completely wrestling oriented company, an alternative to the WWE. People should be coming to TNA because they're turned off by the lack of wrestling on Raw and Smackdown, but if it's just as bad, where's the alternative? It's just a bush-league copy.

 

They've kind of dug themselves a whole, the audience wants the awesome wrestling, but it's not gonna sell unless you have characters to push. And there's maybe 2-3 wrestlers on the roster good enough to get a character over on matches alone. That's a problem.

Bentley and Dutt are higher up the food chain than Aries and Shelley.

 

I mean Aries jobbed to Joe 2-3 weeks ago in a matter of minutes, they've always protected Bentley and Dutt better than that.

Actually, Dutt has been just as murdered by Joe as Aries was. Bentley is still protected though.

 

I'm not a huge Dutt fan and it's not because I think the sprinkler bit he does is fucking retarded. A lot of his spots are very risky and by risky, I don't mean he is going to kill someone. I mean Dutt's spots are either going to look spectacular or crash and burn and expose the business.

Just saw the show. Man, Christian's music is so good. A simple way to explain Abyss' fear of barbed wire is that he was disfigured as a kid trying to climb over a fence or something. Anyway, that Rhino piece was great, though if he could've not just read from a script it would've been better. Show was great angle wise. The wrestling that was there was good. Alex Shelly was hilarious in his match.

Sorry - I've just now had a chance to watch my taped copy of Impact from the 3rd. Bobby Heenan. Wow, it's sad that his voice is so awful now. I mean, I'm not one of those guys who thinks "oh no, he lost weight that must mean he's gonna die soon" because I think the weight loss is probably better for his health, but the voice. The cancer really fucked him up. I can't even imagine listening to him on commentary, as he sounds like the greased up deaf guy from Family Guy. :(

Heh, expose the business? Like that hasn't been done a million times over already.
