I'm not sure why but this letter in the 5/4/98 Observer cracked me up.

quote:

Please lay off the sarcasm of wrestlers religious beliefs. For a person who has always protected the private lives and sexuality of wrestlers, you seen to have a problem with people who find Jesus. Any relationship with God is not to be questioned by you or I. Your comment about Nikita Koloff letting his hair grow and finding Jesus offended me.

If it's a choice between watching ROH on Sunday morning at 1AM on a Sinclair channel or Wednesday night on a national cable network in primetime, I would think they'd make the sacrifice and choose the latter. Or they could choose to watch it twice.

This is the really telling part, because watching ROH twice to support it on DA implies they'd be watching the programming in between the first and second airings.

He's trying to logic ROH fans into watching TNA because it's bookended with ROH repeats.

TNA is the "The Room" of Wrestling. Like if you see the LOLTNA HIstory page there's the sentence "TNA never followed up on this" 17 or so times on there, just like how LEESA's mother mentions breast cancer in her first scene and is seen five more times in the movie without any update.

Hell, that's TNA-style writing in general, Tommy Wiseau's reasoning behind never mentioning the breast cancer thing again is "It's a twist haaaanh, you got swerved for expecting me to only put things on the screen that matter in the long-term storyline"

EDIT: Also Kurt Angle is the equivalent of Tommy himself because Karen tore him apart and cheat on him and everyone betray him and steroids

The Room has a big cult following because of how ridiculously over the top bad it is. TNA doesn't have anything like that because most of the time they're just incompetent in a way that's utterly uncharming or interesting but still mildly offensive. TNA is the Gigli of wrestling promotions.

This may or may not be correct.

JBL is a total idiot the flag is a battle flag if you look at the British flag its the same except with out two bars one in the middle and one threw the sides as the union jack displays. The flag is history of the south it has never stood for racism not every one in the south during that time owned slaves or ever did the flag has 13 stars of the original 13 colonies the flag was the flag of the south to separate from the same problems the caused the war with Britain in 1776 if you know your history president George Washington owned slaves as so did some of are other former presidents back then including Thomas Jefferson and states men Ben Franklin and Sam Adams and his family i had great relatives fight on both sides two were officers under Gen. Grant and the other two were officers whom served under Gen. Stonewall Jackson and my family owned cotton fields and tobbaco fields and NEVER NEVER owned slaves my family worked the own fields. So be fore you open your mouth and don’t know what your talking about or have never served you country don’t put down any flag the rest of the country does nit put down your home state flag of Texas where red necks drag African Americans down dirt roads to death yes there are people that use that flag in hate like grand dragon dave duke ( former governor and CEO of Wal-Mart ) and who is with the clan but that flag was ment for battle not hatred so all I’m saying if that flag comes down so should the lone star flag i spent 13 yrs in the army and i know plenty of african americans who dont care about if the flag flys it ment and stood for all of the brave men cousins, brothers, fathers who fought and gave there lives to not be ruled under ternary and taxation that we u and i was not born during then the south was starving then and like just about what’s happening know with the PRICK we have in office now you think your better then ever one else and your not hell you dont even live in this country as you say on tv so really you shouldnt even open your mouth you dont deserve the right and i dont care if you live hear in the states for 6months of the year in New York in a pint house live like a real american day by day pay check to pay check for once like you use to or have you forgotten to.

Matt Morgan, Hernandez, and Jarrett are back, Shark Boy's back on an upcoming show, Vader appeared and wrestled (badly), Low Ki's gone, Austin Aries is about to be gone, they still have no clue if TNA will be on TV in a few months, and their two big titles (tag and world) aren't being defended on their $40 PPV that airs in a few days

Bumping your longest running angle any main event off of a PPV just so you can stick Jeff Jarrett in a KOTM is the right thing to do?

Regal is struggling with moderating his site's no spoiler policy when fifty million stories are happening this week:

quote:

a minute ago
One more tease and CHAT gets locked. There's no point in CHAT when some feel apprehensive about coming here because of the teases.

Is it too much to ask to just relax and have fun? If you can't help yourself and you need to read spoilers, then feel free to discuss them on the site where you read them. But to come back here and tease them when others have stayed strong and not have looked at the spoilers is rude and inconsiderate.

Posters have to pretend everything is ok.
