It's watchable. They have a lot of good stuff going outside of anything involving Bischoff or the Nasty Boyz.

And given how the Anderson/Rob Terry match went, they seem fully aware that they put the Legends title on a person who has as much wrestling ability as a mailbox.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']i greatly prefer college ball to nba, but i'm more football and hockey.

and to be fair, it's more that I despise UK fans. i have a longwinded reason why, but i'll leave it at that for now.

but i am a cincy grad, so i'm a bearcat fan when it gets down to it. a small sliver of space where everyone to my south is a wildcat fan and everyone to my north a buckeye fan. makes me wanna puke. ;)

EDIT: Man, the backstage promos have been on fire tonight. Tara did an admirable job during the Daffney/ODB match, Morgan was great w/ Hernandez in the D-Von role of just pitching out a catchphrase, and now Abyss was just excellent as well. Strangely enough, for as much as people say he's all talk and not much in the ring, Ken Anderson's promo was an entertaining as a bed-wetting.[/QUOTE]

myke, i can completly agree on the UK fans thing. had time to kill before a midnight movie a few weeks back and there were people in the bar doing fucking cheers.... 3 hours after the game ended. i dont mind the team, but i concur about the fans
 
I hope Flair steals that Hall of Fame ring and flushes it down the toilet.
 
Funny that they are playing up the importance of a ring that Hogan said "maybe cost Vince 20 dollars" and that he only wears to cover up his wife's name tattooed across that finger.
 
That was easily the weakest show since the 1/4 Hogan/Bischoff debut. There was way, way too much talking, and while the Flair opening was great, a lot of it wasn't. Thhe only thing approaching a good match was Kaz/Kendrick. Rob Terry/Anderson was my favorite match on the show though, with Anderson's awesome pre-match deal with Christy, then his arrogant rant on the ramp leading to Angle sneaking up behind him with his swank entrance lift and bonking him with a chair to give Terry the win. While it didn't make Terry look better than Anderson, it didn't hurt him, or Anderson, and Angle looked like a smart babyface. There weren't many of them on this show, what with Abyss still acting like a retard and making even more over-the-top gestures because of his new prop in THE RING!~

The Nasty Boys/3D match was even worse than the PPV one, although it did have some fantastic comedy when Taz said that Knobs was usually fleet-footed. BTW, it took Knobs about 1 minute to look like he'd run a mile here. Dude seriously needs to be seen by a doctor because he looks like a walking heart attack. I hope this was the blow-off to their feud, because I never want to see him on TV, or Brother Ray humping the air before the 3D, again.

The show-closing angle that got a bunch of buzz at the tapings came off flat here. I think it would have worked better in a company that hadn't completely numbed its audience to blood, ironically due to the man that Hogan is teaming with, because the little trickle that Hogan had wasn't visually impressive, and the beating itself just made Hogan look even weaker. Even with AJ and Flair to help him balance himself, it still took forever for him to get to his feet. The announcement was also hurt a bit by the constant videos building up the 3/8 show by implying that Hogan would be doing SOMETHING big, with the "SEE HULK HOGAN IN HIS..." tagline, which also happens to be an opening for some comedy. Seeing Hogan in the ring with Nigel was surreal - that actually excited me more than the tag match on 3/8 just due to the WTFness of Nigel-Hogan being a possibility.

Abyss - Guys…then he put it in my hand AND I PUT IT ON MY FINGER! I COULD FEEL IT! I COULD FEEL THE POWER AND THE ENGERY!
Lethal - I FEEL THE POWAAAA!
Taz - Rob Terry’s newly-acquired Global Title might be in jeopardy as he faces Mr. Anderson. Anderson!
AJ - Last week, Pope, ya came out here to MY HOME, THE HOUSE THAT AJ STYLES BUILT! And tried to make it your temple - ya came out here and placed yourself on a little pedestal and put yourself above everyone else and said that you’d be the champion of the people. That’s cute - you wanna be the golden boy. Is that it? You wanna be the chosen one? You wanna be a man? WELL IT’S NOT GONNA HAPPEN! You’re a man, but I AM THE MAN! Ric Flair’s said it himself - to be the man, you’ve got to beat the man - AND I AM THE TNA…WORLD CHAMPION! So the next time you try to walk all over the champ, ya better think again! Cuz the way it looks right now, you’re not gonna be walking for a long, long time!
Flair - LAST WEEK, something transpired that absolutely got me crazy. Last week, the immortal Hulk Hogan gave his HoF ring to the Abyss! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? It’d be like giving it to one of you!? Can you imagine you wearing this, fat boy!? Hogan and Abyss, you’ve got your own HoF, you’re not in mine! To give it to…HE’S A CHALLENGED PERSON! C’MON! HOGAN, YOU WERE NEVER RIC FLAIR, NEVER WILL BE - NOT IN THE SAME HALL OF FAME - WHATEVER HALL OF FAME YOU’RE IN SHOULD’VE NEVER GIVEN…GET THE ABYSS OUT HERE!
Taz - Well, it’s no secret that Abyss has, in the past, had some mental and confidence issues.
Tenay - HIS DESTINY IS IN HIS OWN HANDS!
Flair - WHAT IN GOD’S GREEN EARTH ARE YOU DOING COMING OUT HERE TO THAT MUSIC!? YOU PATHETIC, I DON’T HAVE THE WORDS TO EXCRIBE IT! YOU BEING IN THE HALL OF FAME DISGRACES…THIS IS A REAL RING - I’M A HALL OF FAMER! YOU MAKE US ALL LOOK BAD! WHEN I TALK TO YOU, DON’T LOOK AWAY. YOU MAY HAVE SOME SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH, AND I GET THAT, BUT YOU’RE NOT A HALL OF FAME WRESTLER! GOD! GOD! GOD! YOU…I WORKED MY WHOLE LIFE TO BE IN THE HALL OF FAME, YOU MAKE ME SICK!
Abyss - First of all,
AJ - YER A BIG SIX FOOT 8 DISGRACE! WHY DON’T YOU DO EVERYBODY A FAVOR AND TAKE THAT HALL OF FAME RING!
Flair - PUT IT ON AJ STYLES’ FINGER!
AJ - TAKE IT OFF! TAKE IT OFF!
Flair - Now!
Abyss - YOU! (Hogan comes out)
Hogan - AJ, what do you know about having a good name? Just cuz you kiss Flair’s butt and commit all the sins of mankind just like Flair did, you think that gives you a good name? And to try and run Abyss down? Tha tonly makes you weak, brother! Is that what you want? Maybe in this ring, there’s a couple guys in here who might go down in history, and when it’s written, do you want it to say “the weakest champion of all-time - AJ Styles”)
Flair - HOGAN, AS GOD AS MY WITNESS, I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN SOONER THAN LATER. I CAME HERE TO TNA CUZ EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH TURNS TO GOLD, BUT GUESS WHAT, ONE THING AIN’T GONNA HAPPEN - YOU’RE NEVER GONNA TELL THE NATURE BOY WHAT TO DO!
Hogan - BACK YOUR ASS UP!
Flair - WHAT IN GOD’S NAME ARE YOU DOING GIVING HIM A HALL OF FAME RING!? LET’S DO IT RIGHT NOW!
Flair - Let me assure you of something - you bought yourself some time. I’m in a good mood, and so is AJ, but before the night’s over, THAT RING WILL BE ON HIS FINGER!
Ad Guy - THE WAR IS BACK! BE THERE WHEN TNA TAKES OVER MONDAY NIGHTS!
Taz - There’s Mick - he isn’t happy over last week’s little swerveroonie!
Tenay - IT’S NEVER GOOD TO HAVE A HARDCORE LEGEND UPSET!
Taz - WE WILL DOMINATE ON MONDAY NIGHTS!
Taz - Knobs can barely run - he’s usually fleet-footed.
Taz - WHAT’S UP TO THE OLD YAM-BAG CITY!
Bischoff - Jeff, you didn’t do the right thing…BY ME! What’s why we have the problem we have - you never seem quite capable of doing what I want you to do, so I’m gonna give you one more shot, JEFFREY, to do the right thing. Since you didn’t want to use the bat, I want you to head back to catering, flip a few burgers for the fine folks here at TNA. Show ‘em what you’re made of, Jeff! (fans chant HOLY FLIP) Since we’re adhering to all the health codes, I want you to wear this and keep the hair out of the burgers! You could always just…quit and make it easy on both of us. No? I didn’t think so. HAPPY FLIPPING!
Tenay - WOW! REMEMBER WHAT WE SAID TAZ, EARLIER!? ABOUT THE COOLER, CALMER SIDE OF ERIC.
Taz - Yeah, we were wrong on our assumption.
Morgan - SUPERMEX!? WHAT WAS THAT!? YOU GAVE BEER MONEY A MATCH AT DESTINATION X!
Hernandez - What’s the problem? You said we should give anyone a shot.
Morgan - I assumed we could start off with Generation Me or the Guns. I said what I said because it would be cool…no, here’s what I’m saying. Before you put the titles on the line, you need to ask me.
Taz - HOW AWESOME WAS KAZARIAN’S RETURN LAST WEEK!?
Tenay - AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF LAYOFF, HE BEAT THE X DIVISION CHAMPION!
Crowd - BRI-AN KENDRICK!/LET’S GO KAZ!
Tenay - Last week, Samoa Joe was kidnapped by HOODED FIGURES! You’re close to Joe, have you heard anything?
Taz - I’ve left 2 messages on his phone and sent texts - I’ve gotten no response. Who would kidnap a 300 pound Samoan!?
Abyss - RIC FLAIR, AJ STYLES, OR ANYBODY ELSE THAT WANTS TO TRY AND GET THIS RING! HAHAHAHA! GO ON! BRING A CHAINSAW, BRING A SEESAW! BRING WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TRY AND GET THIS RING OFF MY FINGER - HULK HOGAN GAVE ME THIS RING, AND THE POWER WITHIN IT! AND ALONG WITH POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY! HULK HOGAN SAW SOMETHING IN ME AND GAVE THIS TO ME AND IT’S GIVEN ME POWERS I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER HAVE! SO GUYS, COME AND GET ME IF YOU WANT! BUT JUST REMEMBER - I JUST MIGHT COME AND GET YOU! BECAUSE AFTER ALL, NOW I’M NOT THE LORD, THE MONSTER OF THE RINGS! HAHAHAHAHA! WOO! WOO!
Ad Guy - THE TNA GLOBAL CHAMPION - A TITLE CREATED BY A LEGEND! ON JANUARY 27TH, BIG ROB TERRY WON THE GLOBAL TITLE IN WALES!
Hemme - Challenging him for his title, Mr. Anderson.
Anderson - Ahem. Okay. Quiz show time - just stand there and look purty. Who’s the guy who’s been UNFREAKINSTOPPABLE SINCE HE DEBUTED IN TNA? WHO’S THE GUY WHO HAS LEFT THE SELF-PROCLAIMED WORLD’S GREATEST WRESTLER LAYING IN A POOL OF BLOOD? WHO’S THE GUY WHO EVERYONE HAS BEEN REFERRING TO AS THE ONE!? To those of you in ZOMBIELAND WATCHING THIS ON DVR, YA MIGHT WANNA FAST FORWARD, THEN REWIND AND WATCH IT IN ITS ENTIRETY - TONIGHT, I GET MY FIRST TASTE OF TNA CHAMPIONSHP GOLD! I TAKE THAT FIRST STEP TOWARDS THE INEVITABLE DAY WHEN I BECOME TNA WORLD CHAMPION! IT’S NOT GONNA BE EASY - ROB TERRY’S AS STRONG AS SIX GORILLAS. But I’ve been in the ring with men who are stronger than him, and I’ve also been in the ring with 6 gorillas. AND I WON - BY DQ, sure, but I still got a checkmark in the W column.

Brutus - Word of warning, champ, Doug and I carried you for a year. You are gonna learn that you don’t bite the hand that feeds ya. Now, you will answer to me!
Terry - THANKS FOR THE WARNING, NOW PISS OFF!
Tenay - Word of warning for Mr. Anderson - don’t get into a test of strength with the new Global champion.
Anderson - Ladies and gentlemen, you are looking at the next TNA Global Champion. But, but, but first thing’s first - now, I guess, lemme get this straight - I’m supposed to feel sorry cuz I spit on some medal that was given to Kurt by a widow or a mother of a fallen soldier. Is that right? I’m supposed to feel sorry? (Angle comes up behind him via his entrance lift) Don’t worry - he’s not coming. This little thing right here happened to be given to me by the widow of a fallen soldier. Only, that widow and that soldier just so happened to be Vietnamese! And that’s okay. That’s okay, right? YOU PEOPLE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES!
Tenay - Mr. Anderson, meet Mr. Angle and Mr. Steel Chair while you’re at it!

Mick - Mustard - I saw Jeff Jarrett working the grill. Think it’ll hurt the overall look.
Bischoff - Yeah, it clashes.
Mick - Especially in High Def.
Bischoff - I talked to my assistant to find an etiquette coach. We need to find someone to help you find some…dignity.
Mick - After all we’ve been through, you’re willing to put that kinda money into me!?
Bischoff - Yeah - we want you to do corporate speaking.
Mick - I’ve always been confused by the silverware thing.
Bischoff - Yeah, she’ll tell ya when to eat your soup, salad, and even which fork to use!
Mick - TALLYHO!
Taz - Look at tha bling around Chealsea’s neck - it was a Valentine’s Day gift from Wolfe to Chelasea!
Tenay - HERE COMES THE MONSTER OF THE RINGS - ABYSS!

Tenay - ABYSS STILL HAS THA POWA!

Ugh, what a terrible choice for participants. The MiTB match is usually my most anticipated match of the pay per view and a few of those choices just seem lame to me.

Hopefully, the losers get something to do on the show, that would make up for their absence in the match.

i was shocked to see ziggler v. morrison v. truth in a qualifier, im sure at least one of the other two will get in aside from ziggler.
 
There was "way, way too much talking" on TNA, yet this past Raw was "awesome."

right.

I hope you collect some sort of payment for presenting yourself as a partisan hack.

tna sucks! so boring!

you don't know what you are talking about.

you are prejudiced against people who like good professional wrestling mykevermin.

wwe rules. john cena is must cooler than hulk hogan. at least cena can climb to the top rope.

i think you pick on jay because you are jealous that he enjoys wrestling instead of you who hate it and you are harassing him now. oh hohohoho. i said it. randy orton and the raw superstars are awesome when compared to the wwe rejected in tna. if they were soo good why didn't the wwe keep them?

Did you just use Cena and good wrestling in the same sentence? #-o

no way. i like cena. and myke is harassing jay. has jay said anything bad about myke before? where is the joke?

i like the way john cena makes me laugh and its fun to watch him wrestle. he has a lot of energy and seems like a really good person. randy orton too. no i mean he is mean but i like watching him.

sheamus is boring but hornswoggle is fun too. i mainly like people who look like wrestlers. i wish people like abyss were in wwe instead of tna. undertaker versus abyss would be so awesome. am i wrong?

my older brothers and i tried watching tna a bunch but we always just get bored and play modern warfare 2.
 
That's a real shame. I'll always remember Paul Burchill as the resident pirate, but he was sorely underused and had the potential to be a star.

Gregory Helms was a great cruiserweight, but after the retired that title, they had nothing for him left. That public intoxication incident was likely the straw that broke the camal's back.
 
I always got the sense that someone in power just truly disliked Burchill. After the pirate gimmick, it was nothing but bad, or completely un-pushed, gimmicks. The man has talent and can talk, yet was just never given anything worthwhile. It's goddamn bizarre, unless he just pissed someone off. It's like that 'supervillain' angle... it actually could've been pretty damn entertaining, yet they aborted it within about 2 weeks. Honestly, why did Burchill never get the push that McIntyre is getting (undeservedly) right now?

Helms... well, can't say that I didn't see it coming, or am really upset by it. He's been fairly useless for a while now, and there was really no way to reboot him into someone anyone gave two shits about. Unless you're Bourne or Mysterio, there doesn't seem to be much of a place for smaller (old ones, at least) guys now that ECW is done.
 
Burchill was ridiculously under/misused. I liked the guy quite a bit. He was above average in the ring and had pretty good mic skills. As far as Helms goes, hopefully he can go somewhere where they'll use him and not just give him the worst fucking gimmick in the company.
 
[quote name='JJSP']Paul Burchill & Gregory Helms have been released.[/QUOTE]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I have been following Burchill since before he signed with the WWE and he really is a fantastic talent.

I hope he goes to Ring Of Honor to polish up his skills before heading to TNA.
 
I've been waiting to WWE to release Helms. You know TNA is gonna be all over him. I'd love to see a Helms/AJ program. But they'll probably throw him in with Moore and Jeff Hardy deal since they're all buddies.
 
Maria is a surprising one since they'd been pushing her Celebrity Apprentice appearances as of late. I'm thinking there might be something up there.
 
[quote name='Chuplayer']Oh, what in the hell? That's absolute crap.[/QUOTE]

Yeah no kidding. I'll be the first to admit that there are too many ladies in wrestling nowadays but Maria has been a favorite since she first showed up.
 
[quote name='JJSP']Maria has been released.[/QUOTE]

Wow, very surprising! There are so many other "divas: they could have cut but surprised it was her.
[quote name='GuilewasNK']Damn.

Matt really can't keep a girlfriend.[/QUOTE]
:rofl:
 
Alright guys let's talk. I did not ask for my release. I was released. I am still going to kick ass in other areas!! I am excited about the future! But I am sad about never getting the Championship. I am sad about not getting the chance to go to Wrestlemania again. Passion is my Motivation! Time to Sing! Time to work for Charity! Time to Dance! Time to be Alive again! Much love to my FANS, my FAMILY, the DIVAS, and my FRIENDS! There is a bright new future when one door closes another opens! Bring on the Doors! Spanks and Kisses

Strange they would dump her before Celebrity Apprentice is over.
 
Sucks to see all 3 of them go. Maria was my second-favorite current Diva eye candy-wise (after Alicia Fox), and of course Burchill is another victim of the usual "great workers who never got the chance" curse, and looks like Helms' release has been a long time coming.

I guess they'll be popping up in TNA in a few months.
 
I'm thinking Helms in TNA is a done deal with Hardy and Moore there. He'd be a solid addition to their roster even if he dumped the Hurricane gimmick. I think that's the biggest thing holding him back - he's been stuck with it so long it's gotten tired.

While I love Burchill as a wrestler, he's been spinning his wheels in WWE with no direction. Wouldn't surprise me to see him in TNA, but I don't see where he fits in.
 
Wasnt surprised about Helms/Burchill being released, but Maria? Guess once she lost that dopey gimmick, they ran out of ideas for her.
