I don't watch a lot of TNA, could someone explain how and why Matt Morgan is apparently so over? Last I heard he was a coat rack.

Whatever happened to Tiffany? She was suspended after that vague incident with Drew in the hotel, but that was in August. Is she still suspended?

Iviv posted:What would someone like the WWE need to do to actually get across that a life threatening injury is not actually an angle, but a real, legit injury? The only way I can see it getting across is through third party news sites, like the wrestling observer or similar reporting it. I think they would not mention the severity of the injury unless it was truly a life threatening one, or if the performer died. When Mark Henry's knee bent backwards on Smackdown they basically cut away and made no mention of it. An injury would have to be incredibly serious for them to break kayfabe and announce it. I was watching the PPV where Owen died live and after some backstage promo it cut to shots of the crowd and JR began saying something like "I apologize fans, this is live television, sometimes things don't go according to plan" and I immediately thought that Owen was stuck in his harness and they couldn't get him down, and it was something silly. JR then made it clear that he had fallen from the rafters, and it was not part of any story line. He started talking about how Owen was playing the character of the Blue Blazer and was to descend from the rafters to the ring, which was a big break of kayfabe as the Blue Blazer was a comedy character who supposedly nobody knew the true identity of. There were no shots of the ring and the constant repetition of "this is not a storyline" and the genuine looks of despair on their faces and just how Lawler sounded was enough. I tried to check the Internet and every smarky website was crawling or down due to the amount of people checking them for updates and any news about Owen. It has only happened once, but they made it abundantly clear that it was not fake.

bobkatt013 posted:Seems like someone forgot this Well yeah, but that was spectacular, and WCW. I think the WWE also showed replays of Joey Mercury's face being exploded by a ladder, but that wasn't life threatening. I guess it depends on how noticeable the actual injury is to the crowd in attendance and the viewers at home.

oldpainless posted:The most memorable part of the Jericho/Punk feud for me was Jericho slipping and falling on his rear end outside the ring on the beer he poured on Punk. I really liked when Jericho went to smash Punk in the head with a whiskey bottle and it shattered in his hand before making contact with Punk's head.

rotinaj posted:What was it that broke Al Snow's spirit and turned him into his current day self? Or was he always this much of a dick, but nobody listened to him pre-internet? i'm probably the only Al Snow mark here, but he's always been a bit of a weird rear end in a top hat. Mick Foley constantly owning him in funny ways while Snow almost got fired for his miserable attempt at owning Foley while Snow was doing guest commentary probably didn't help.

magnum_valentino posted:How did Al nearly get fired on commentary, sorry? my memory is pretty hazy and i cant find a clip, but Snow was at the announce table for some random match, probably some hardcore title match, and all he did was try to put down Foley and insult him, and it wasn't funny at all. Foley wasn't even in the match going on in the ring. i think he was about to get canned for it but Foley stood up for him. again, this was in like 1999 and i haven't seen or heard of the incident since. i think this was before the whole thing with Snow throwing Foley's book in the garbage and framing The Rock for it, so it didn't really make sense at all. Snow and Foley didn't have an angle going at the time. Shayna Baszler fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Jul 10, 2016 |
