LOL Magnus.

Does anyone have that gif of the hilariously dramatic Bruce Pritchard spot were the camera slowly pans around him and it says something like "A LEGEND RETURNS"

Looks like he's plotting to murder Grado. Can't say I blame him.

Didn't Magnus go from being their number one shill to making GBS threads all over the company once he left?

There was a relatively recent interview (I forget with whom, maybe Jim Ross) where he said he had heat with Eric Bischoff.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Given Mickie now works for WWE, and Magnus seems to be wrestling in the UK more and more. It must be tough for a married couple.

I know the wrestling life is tough on couples, but it must be especially hard when you are both wrestlers, and you work for different companies.

Frankly it seems like the best of both worlds (disregarding that no one should ever work for TNA).

You're both wrestlers, so you understand the industry and the lifestyle, but you're not in the same company being subject to all the horseshit that entails. Being married, in the same company, but on different brands seems like it'd be harder to me.

I'm sure someone has mentioned this, but there's a TNA channel on Pluto TV. I've been watching it a lot lately as background noise... and I totally forgot how legitimately decent-to-good TNA was back in like 2006 or so. Even with Jeff Jarrett's black hole of charisma at the top, people like Christian, Monty Brown, AJ Styles, etc. were legitimately entertaining.

(This week's Impact features a segment with Karen Jarrett demanding an apology from the Knockout with the big black feather collar. There's been maybe one match so far, buried beneath a gigantic, rocklike turd of :words: . Before you ask, my main reason for still watching is morbid curiosity. )

I saw it the other day while taking a break from their MST3K channel. They were playing Hard Justice 2009, and then a random "TNA Epics" hosted by Mick Foley. I wonder if it makes more money than the public domain cartoons channel or the channel that randomly plays reruns of the Dick Cavett Show.
