The ending sucked. Hardy as a hell will go over as much as Goldberg being a heel. Eric Bitchoff stands the ring the ring waiting for 5 minutes acting scared while cripple ass Hogan gets to the ring. I'm glad I saw this for free.
THE WRESTLING THREAD: HELL HAS FROZE OVER JOHN CENA HAS GONE FULL HEEL
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
I'm definitely not a fan of the way they ended because they stopped a really good match to further an angle and I rarely think that's a good idea and the execution was poor. Jeff being the one who turned was a surprise and him laying out RVD was pretty good. It all hinges on the heel promo/explanation on Impact this week.
nah I truly believe Nash is done. He's had a good long career and it's just time for him to leave. That being said I dont watch TNA that much but I will Thursday just to see how everything works out. I believe Dixie will try to smooth things out with Sting, if i'm correct was one of the few who knew Hogan and Easy E's true intentions and get him to lead the charge against Hogan and co. One thing I'm wondering though is what will happen to Fortune now??? will they just continue their feud with the ECW originals and that'll be it ?
That's a good question. I think the EV2 feud is over or nearly over (what's after Lethal Lockdown?). I think they should start building toward splitting off AJ and turning him back face (and leaving him there), having him feud with Kazarian to establish Frankie on a higher level and giving their TV title some great matches to establish it. Then as he makes his way through Fortune, we could have some really great AJ-Williams matches and it could open the door for the return of Christopher Daniels as they feud with Beer Money. Factions only work when guys get kicked out and new guys come in and they need strong babyfaces to feud with.
Oh you know Matt vs. Jeff or Matt and Jeff (probably both) is coming. As long as the angles and matches are good, I'm cool with it. WWE didn't get all they could out that feud either time.
whats going to happen with kurt? just read he sign a new contract with tna..

Not top guys. Joe, AJ, Beer Money don't have to take outside booking and when they do, it's usually a favor for a friendly promoter.
15k is a grip for a one-off but they're already getting mainstream pub for his appearance. It might help the new kid a little.

Kurt's there for at least another year, probably two since he's expressed a desire to work in TNA management. But he's got movies and a food product line to help pad his pocket and he might eventually want in Vince's Hall of Fame someday. So if he leaves, I expect him to come back.
Both Hardy's as a HEEL TAG TEAM would work wonderfully......if done correctly. Let Flair give them direction behind the scenes and that can be one of the greatest TT in TNA history (Beer Money is my fav and the XXX stable with Elix,Daniels and Low Ki are my favs)

i assume the reason Jwoww will be on thursday is cause of this lame gimmick

damn this chick is wack
I'm not a fan of them being a regular tag team again but I would like to see them against Beer Money.

If the guy can work and get the gimmick over, I'll give him a pass. Honestly, most gimmicks are lame but if done right, can become legendary (Goldust, Razor Ramon).
now this was/is lame
But Matt Borne got that shit over. When they turned him face (and Matt left), it got lame and was Hornswoggle Version 1.0.
I sure wish Tamina would pounce on me like that. I'll show her what WWE Raw really means.
Yeah when Doink was evil, the gimmick was the shit. Then it went all happy friendly it was some bullshit.
Why in the fuck are they shitting on Daniel Bryan? Because he can actually wrestle? WTF?
Matt Borne as Borne Again in ECW was good but short
Based on last Thursday's Impact he won't get the gimmick over. That promo was wack as hell and the female added absolutely nothing to it so he better be one hell of a worker.I saw one video of him wrestling and I wasn't impressed.
I'm already terrified of clowns to begin with so seeing that as a kid was creepy, but his heel theme was great.
Last i heard AJ was making 20k a year and the only guys making real money are the dinosaurs. You do realize Jwoww is a chick right
I don't know, it seems like they are punishing him for something by servicng him up to the Celtic Warrior. Wonder who he's going to feud with since they have shot the Miz up to main event status.
Damn, Injury Season must be back. First Sheffield, then Tarver, now Bourne.
I've heard but I've never seen it.
he'll probably be the first one eliminated anyway
He shouldn't be there in the first place. Santino is a decent comedy act but unlike Eric Young, he can't wrestle so he shouldn't be doing ppvs.I'm already terrified of clowns to begin with so seeing that as a kid was creepy, but his heel theme was great.

If AJ was only making 20k a year, he would have quit and went to work to Vince or even ROH and the indies. This is the same guy who turned down going to WWE developmental almost ten years ago because he was making more on the indies (pre TNA) than they were offering.
I realized it after I made the post but didn't care enough to go back and edit it. I'm 37, why should I know who the "Jersey Shore" idiots are in the first place.

TNA has that very shady per apperance deal with alot of their wrestlers, velvet sky signed a long term deal for 600 buck per apperance then she was gone for the next 2 impacts.
I'm 25 and i could care less about the shore basically it's guidomania in tna
Because his popularity isnt a WWE creation so they have to humble his character until they decide if and when they see him as a WWE superstar. The same thing is happening with Evan Bourne, Kaval and soon to be Tyler Black who popularity comes from the indies.
The only reason it didnt happen as much with CM Punk is because he was getting build-up in WWE's version of ECW.
It's not that shady. It's very similar to the ways deals where cut with talent in the territory days. As long as you get a certain amount of days guaranteed and the right to work othe places, it's probably a pretty cool deal.
And if Velvet's getting 600 an appearance, she's one of the top paid females in the business because even WWE Divas average about 500/per show.
Basically. If he can work, in the ring and on the mic, this will be a great idea (it's better than bringing in Jenna Morasca and other people and gimmicks after their 15 minutes is up).And Punk, a 3 time former champ, just spent the summer jobbing to the Big Show and the Undertaker. Imagine another top heel going out like that if they were WWE creations (how many times has Sheamus lost in all? 3? 4?).
THE MAN BEHIND NEXUS
Sources say that the one person behind Wade Barrett's current push is none other than Triple H. It was even Triple H's idea on the whole Nexus taking over RAW angle that started in June. Barrett is also really well liked backstage by management and his peers, he is also the type of person that would sit in the locker room watching studying the game and improving his craft.
Triple H feels Barrett will be the biggest star by the end of this year and with Triple H considering retirement since getting involved in Corporate at Stamford headquarters he would love to put over Barrett at Wrestlemania next year to put closure and pass the torch to Wade Barrett. Management and Vince McMahon are also high on the idea. Stay tuned for more info as they develop.
Wrestling Observer
I dont think the company is high on Drew McIntire any longer
Gail Kim took the money and ran so im guessing diva money > knockout money
If im correct...Sheamus only lost 1 regular match....Guess against who?....Triple H. All his other losses were in a 4way match, Elimination Chamber, and a Hell in a cell match with Orton. Sheamus is Company Protected.
