I'm shocked Gene Snitsky wasn't offered a long term deal; the company motto after all is "it wasn't my fault."

If the Aces & Eights gave us anything, it gave Bully tons of heat for a short while (that TNA promptly wasted) and gave us those moments where Bully was able to tell Hogan that he screwed Brooke on national TV. That's gotta count for something.

Bully in Aces & Eights would've been fine (well... not fine but at least better) if they did the smart thing and had him cheat and reveal himself as the leader to win the Bound for Glory series in 2012 before cheating again to win the title from Austin Aries. Instead they stretched it out way too loving far and tried to have him be face for a couple months just to make it that much more of a ~*~SWERVE~*~

Russo's statement is outstanding: http://www.pyroandballyhoo.com/spike-actually-told-working-tna/ He is probably still with TNA.

Instead they hotshotted the title to Sabin in the worst match ever for the worst reign ever and sorta half ditched the Lone Wolf gimmick to have AJ join the MEM only not really because Kurt's a druggie. TNA.

vinny ru apologists are giving tna apologists a run for their money in the delusional departmentquote:As far as I can tell the reasons to keep it a secret were: A) Spike have been poisoned by Bischoff's lies B) Potential Japanese partners think it's racist you need to speak English to get a push on US television. C) TNA will get bad publicity from dirt sheets and internet fans that account for less than 0.01% of the audience.

I love Vince Russo but he's a self admitted unmedicated crazy person. Sometimes you get an interesting point of view but mostly you get delusional ranting.

do you think Dixie personally paid her medical costs from the back injury that resulted from her table spot or do you think she charged it to the company?

I thought Bully Ray vs Joesph Park was one of the best feuds TNA had in a long time. Then Bully got caught up in the whole A&8's thing and they did nothing with the Joesph Park storyline for about a year so no one cared about him anymore and then he went back to being Abyss and people cared even less.

"this character change for abyss has gotten over? eh let's just put a mask back on him and turn him heel just so we can copy wwe again" but seriously how can you possibly justify corporate abyss? it fails to be both original or logical. also looked terrible. a true trifecta of poo poo.

Fark, that's a little unpleasant right there. And if you think about it, this is the most advertising that they've done in quite a while.

There are a lot of people wondering why TNA thinks in a time when people are clamoring for what few jobs there are that anyone is going to put their job on the line for a tshirt. Also some Sasha Banks references. And TNA employees. That's literally it.
