It reminds me of religious nuts who ask questions with actual answers thinking that asking a question is proof of something.

I've actually seen worse. Someone posted in the comments of a Benoit video that Eddie Guerrero was killed as a sacrifice to the Illuminati in which Vince McMahon is apparently a major player. Benoit and his family were innocent victims of the Patriots or whatever batshit theory that plays into.

TNA Mecca decide to have the final word on Eric Young.

I like how not giving a poo poo about TNA is somehow equated to outright persecution.

I'm pretty sure nobody's saying "WTF HE CAN'T BE CHAMPION", we just don't care. TNA fans have such a persecution complex it's amazing.

This is a lot of assuming when the dude has basically not been on the show since Mania with unforeseen circumstances being largely the reason. Still probably the most over "as a face" guy they have, and based on these few unfortunate weeks HE SHOULD TURN HEEL!!!
His father dying, yes, but a honeymoon isn't really unforeseen. It actually isn't really a good idea for a major star to get married on Mania week, but it's not like I'm going to criticize him for that.

It's pretty creepy to track down a guy's address and then teach your kid it's okay to stalk someone and shove things into his mail slot. Mail it to him if you really just can't resist, but don't come to his front door.

Well I wouldn't want to be stupid so I guess I'll just start assuming every person I see on the street is a murderer and yet also argue that I don't need any protection from them. Also make all my other posts the exact opposite I guess.

Nobody said anything about murderers, Captain Hyberbole. But it is creepy. It would be just as creepy if someone tracked down AJ Lee's address to hand-deliver flowers to her because they saw her on TV and had a crush on her. The way it's written, it sounds like he came home to find them at his door. After thousands of fans hound you all day, every day, no matter where you go, and one of them tracks you down and is standing between you and your front door while putting unknown things into it, you're supposed to smile and say thank you and have a pleasant chat? Or do you tell them to leave you alone? Now imagine if 500 people did the same thing. If he lets one person do it without complaint, that gives free license for everyone else to do it. You have as poor a grasp of personal boundaries as these people do.

The really dumb thing about adding a Cruiserweight division nowadays is that there would be lighter wrestlers who don't wrestle a light heavyweight style, and there are also a ton of guys who work really well together despite size differences so it would rob us of all those matchups. I have to say the X-Division idea was one of the few things TNA ever did right - I know they've changed it over the years, but for a time rather than a weight class it was just a different style, and promoted heavily, so the roster could shift in and out of the division at will.

So if it's like holding the TNA championship, does that mean Spike's business model is renewing Impact, waiting until it gets pretty popular for a few months, and then selling it off to BET?

I thought it was established on PSP that The Ascension are Stargate vampires.


I still think the best/coolest/funniest way to have debuted them in WWE is to have them be cosmic villains for Goldust/Stardust. Like they opened a portal to create a shortcut to the Cosmic Key and The Ascension popped out.

I'll never get over the incredible victim complex being a TNA fan seems to breed.

It's not even just a victim complex, it's this weird, somehow completely self-unaware egocentrism where they think everything is about them when it's completely unrelated. Something happens in NJPW? Clearly something done specifically to bash TNA. WWE? Goes out of their way to make TNA look bad despite really never needing to. Someone in rural Bangladesh injured their knee? gently caress you, TNA had knee injuries way before this copycat.

I just wonder, when you're that deeply entrenched, what excuses people like that are going to make when/if TNA inevitably folds. Is it THEN Dixie's fault? Or does the failure of her company only martyr her that much more?

Oh, honey. No. "Hard decisions" is mediaspeak for damage control.

And yet the longer there's no news, the more he'll build himself up to think it's good news. He'll convince himself that HBO will be running Impact in an unopposed block with Game of Thrones, or that Dixie secured a deal with Comcast to beam Impact directly into people's skulls.

IN PRINT, btw. Therefore it is binding. It is law. It is legend.

You see, with the percentage of people who watch Impact on Destination America, that's more viewers than the percentage of people who watch it on Spike, and therefore the numbers are actually higher because magic.

I once saw someone comment on a Youtube video who was convinced Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit's deaths were part of an Illuminati blood sacrifice and that Vince didn't want to do it but he had to. Those two were just two more in a long line of sacrifices.

I have no idea whether or not this has anything to do with Ho Kogan.
