That was her. I mean she wasn't great at a number of things but she absolutely could not take a bump at all.

Well on the one hand Cody has gone out and actively pursued whatever bookings he could get, adapting his style and trying to lean and evolve to prove to himself he can hang with the indie talent and has along the way reinvigorated his love for professional wrestling becoming seemingly happier now that he is control of his own fate than he was in the WWE. On the other hand Sandow got really fat. And his fat isn't a talent hump like Chis Hero's.

Is Sandow still on TNA? How's he doing? No one ever talks about TNA's actual television content in this thread (wisely).

sandow should be in a tag team with james storm named "beer gut" and they should have the longest tag team title reign until james storms falls off his boozer cruiser onto a set of train tracks.

Bobby Lashley is in fact not one of the guys in the MMA division. In fact its expressly been stated that he won't be involved with it at all.

I've been watching the last few impacts, and by that I mean skipping anything that wasn't Hardys vs Decay. Way too much Mike Bennett.

keevo posted:Wait...TNA has an MMA division? Well, they're completely normal wrestling matches that have 3 minute rounds, breaks, and kayfabe judges, so you get everyone's favorite "face puts on a submission and then time runs out" spot multiple times per match and whoever does the most suicide dives gets 10 points. It's the most obviously Corgan booking decision so far, and it's the absolute worst.

Its also the focus of the new midcard belt. The reamed Legends/Global/King Of The Mountain whatever belt.

When Corgan and Lagana went to EVOLVE it was to scout Matt Riddle. But they exposed themselves as fake gamer girls as they didn't do their homework on Matt. He's a very different dude and not especially motived by money or TV exposure.

I haven't watched, read a thread or even thought about TNA in probably a couple years now. I just read six pages of this thread and I have questions.....so many questions. But would I understand the answers? I feel like Johnny Depp in Fear & Loathing.....on the verge of total mental collapse.

The funniest thing to me was Drew insinuating his match would steal the show when the match can go a maximum of three (3) three minute rounds.

I decided I would like TNA to live for at least long enough that the Wolves' heat is unrecoverable and Davey Richards is reduced to working in a mall store selling iPhone cases.
