Is it written into his loving contract that he gets to do that? Like does he have creative control to force himself onto the knockouts if they get in his face?

TNA house shows used to be decent because you saw what the talent like Eric Young and Bobby Roode and others were able to pull off when they weren't tied down to the awful writing and agents.

But now TNA has no talent.

they have a fair few good guys who are very good

MANCHESTER | NASHVILLE – ITV Studios Entertainment Manchester announced today that it has teamed up with IMPACT Wrestling, a subsidiary of Anthem Sports & Entertainment Corp., to bring WOS Wrestling back to ITV, with an initial commission for a 10-part series.

The commission from ITV’s Helen Warner follows a successful one-off-special, which aired on New Year’s Eve 2016. The Executive Producers for ITV Studios are Tom McLennan and Simon Marsh. Jeff Jarrett, the Chief Creative Officer for IMPACT Wrestling, will be the Executive Producer for IMPACT Wrestling.

Thirty years after the original WOS ended – and legendary stars such as Big Daddy, Mick McManus and Rollerball Rocco left British screens – this new series will feature the very best of today’s wrestlers from the current red-hot U.K. wrestling scene.

They will compete in front of a live audience at the intimate Preston Guild Hall on Thursday 25th May and Friday 26th May (doors 7pm / bell time 7.30pm).

Tickets for these historic shows will go on sale at 9am on Friday 7th April from Gigsandtours.com / Ticketmaster.co.uk / prestonguildhall.co.uk

There will also be a launch event this Monday (27th March) at 2pm in Manchester, where the full details of the WOS live shows will be announced, including the roster. Press and fans are invited to attend to the launch, which will include a Q&A and meet & greet. Places are extremely limited, to reserve one please email wswaudience@itv.com

This initial commission is part of a comprehensive co-production agreement between ITV Studios and IMPACT Wrestling to relaunch the WOS Wrestling brand, bringing British stars to ITV while leveraging the roster and creative team of Impact Wrestling along with its expertise in live event production and international distribution.

“This opportunity to work with ITV Studios to revive this iconic brand in the United Kingdom is a perfect example of the ways in which we intend to leverage our strengths to build our presence in international markets in collaboration with local organizations,” said Ed Nordholm, President of Impact Wrestling.

Director of Entertainment, ITV Studios Manchester, Tom Mclennan said: “Britain’s wrestling scene is thriving and there has never been a better time to bring it back to ITV after a gap of 30 years.”

Jeff Jarrett, Chief Creative Officer for IMPACT Wrestling, added: “The WOS brand is etched in professional wrestling tradition. My family’s lineage in the industry dates back 70-plus years, so I am honoured for the opportunity to work on reviving the legacy of this historic British series.”

He'll manage to gently caress both of them up as he always does. Theoretically he won't be able to lose his own money this time but he's Jeff so he probably will.

Nice butt shot of ODB and Vag shot of Rebel.



Bloodreign2: Electric Boogaloo
You know, the match wasn't great, but it was entertaining. Anyone notice a little lip action when Rebel did the ropes legsplit? And not the top lips either.

Robert Loubeau
Agreed and no, I didn't notice that. May have to watch that again.

Bloodreign2: Electric Boogaloo
Look on her right side, you see a little extra poking out of the pants. Maybe not lips, but pretty damned close to it.

DollahMAB
That's a bit harsh don't you think? I'm pretty sure "tranny" is a derogatory word. Lead by example, Will.

Will1225 Moderator
Nah she looks like a man with lady features, its appropriate

DollahMAB
Yes, but "tranny" is derogatory term for a transexual. I'm not offended by it personally, but on behalf of those it does, I don't think it's appropriate for a Mod to use such language. What sort of example do you wish to set for other users?

Will1225 Moderator
I don't see it as such, it's a description.

It's not like I called her a bitch or a oval office. She is not very attractive and at this point looks like a man with lady features

DollahMAB
But since when have "bitch" and "oval office" been derogatory terms directed at certain demographics? It's a totally different thing. Would you call a black person the N Word? Would you call gay people "faggots"? Description or not, for you to use such word is classless. If you can't let a Grado joke fly, I don't think you have the right to use such offensive terms.

Will1225 Moderator
Wait are you trying to say that "bitch and oval office" aren't deragatory words towards women??? Their legit definition is a cuss word about women

Please note at this point that Will just a few minutes earlier called several of the Knockouts cunts....

No, Jerry was involved right at the start. He very quickly bailed when he discovered that what Jeff wanted was a vanity promotion, not a business opportunity.

Haven't heard that specifically, but could be. Russo was the one who pushed Jeff in WCW, so that was presumably why Jeff wanted him. Jerry might have thought very different, like any right thinking person should.

From what's been said ITV are pretty much paying nothing, so it's Anthem's money that's being spent.

How the gently caress is Earl Hebner still actively employed anywhere? Did he sign like a 75-year contract with TNA? He's been the absolute worst for about the past 15 years.

There's no loving way Russo isn't back.

I'm sorry, being that he's supposed to be an official, is he at all being reprimanded in storyline by enforcing the rules through sexual assault?

Well TNA doesn't have to pay him much because the Hebners do a pretty good side business in stolen WWE merchandise.
