OFFICIAL RACIST


Samoa Joe is fat.

----

THIS MONTH ON TNA: WHERE WRESTLING MATTERS.

-- TNA may get a deal on Velocity. A channel dedicated to cars.

-- This certainly cannot end well.

-- TNAsylum and Mecca claim Spike TV is losing out for not keeping TNA around.

-- TNA seems to think spending large sums of money to tape in Manhattan is a good idea.

-- Big Bobby is still our champion!

-- Why is Samoa Joe the X-Division champion? HE IS FAT.

-- TNA can't find many people writing positive reviews for their shows, so they have some kid doing it now.

-- THEY HAVE MOVED TO WEDNESDAY NIGHTS.

----

Next TNA PPV: I don't know. Probably a one night only thing.

Is this stupid loving company still alive?

I turned on my radio this morning at about 9:30am to hear the usual sports radio guys talking pro wrestling. One admitted that he accidentally flipped to Impact this past week to see Tommy Dreamer v. Lashley. His review of the match was "I wish that those two had crippled one another so I would never have to see them wrestle again." Sounds like TNA is still TNA.

They should squat in and take over a ballroom or something in one of the casinos that's closing in Atlantic City.

I thought squatting was part of the TNA creative process for years.

-Tickets for TNA's Bound For Glory pay-per-view from Tokyo at Korakuen Hall go on sale to the general public in Japan on September 11th. A pre-sale began at the venue after an event this past weekend. Special ringside seats are 7,000 yen or about $67 USD, regular ringside seats are 5,000 yen or about $48 USD and general admission seats are 4,000 yen or about $38 USD.

-TNA partner Wrestle-1 has become a "vanity project" of The Great Muta and their shows are said to be pretty much useless at this point, according to F4Wonline.com. TNA and Wrestle-1 will be promoting Bound For Glory from Tokyo in October.

Thank you.

Wasn't there some attempted TNA side project centering around wrestlers and race cars? It sounded idiotic as all get out and I can only hope they follow that format again if they get on Velocity.

Yep, All Wheels Wrestling. Where they would have poo poo like five minute ironman matches.

Mike Johnson said and it makes sense if you think about it. Is that after Bethlehem TV tapings there will large lay offs with severance paid etc on the production side. As they will be using a local crew for the UK TV tapings. After that point it is great unknown as things stand.

This is my first night watching TNA since I figure I kind of had to watch at least one episode before it died, and, uh, is this a ladies fued thats built around "you have the belt, and gently caress you I want the belt"? And there's no "but they're ladies so they can't have a straight fued!" Come on TNA, I was told you were a train wreck, not that you were doing at least one thing better than WWE.

Quarters for last week were really funny, per the Observer

quote:

In the segment-by-segment, Bobby Lashley vs. Tommy Dreamer lost 46,000 viewers. Taryn Terrell vs. Madison Rayne and Homicide & Manik & Zema Ion vs. Low Ki & Crazzy Steve & Tiger Uno lost 45,000 viewers. The Bobby Roode/Eric Young in-ring promo to set up next week’s match lost 34,000 viewers. Ethan Carter III vs. Rhino at 10 p.m. in the usual growth spot lost 22,000 viewers. Austin Aries vs. Great Sanada gained 11,000 viewers. The introduction of Chris Melendez lost 24,000 viewers. And worst of all, the dream tag team match with The Wolves vs. Hardys vs. Team 3-D, the first of the series, lost 35,000 viewers and did a 0.74 quarter, so the main event did the lowest rating and audience of the show.

So there are a bunch of full TNA DVDs on TNA's official YouTube channel that I'm pretty sure were previously behind a paywall but are not anymore. Like, they're best of comps, so they're probably pretty good. Example: The Best of Beer Money and The Motorcity Machineguns here-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A47fFE_sA5I

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG5xD5Me49I

There's a shitload in the related videos, including a Best of CM Punk :lol:.

Pretty cool I guess, 'cause hey, free rasslin'!
