Quarters for last week were really funny, per the Observer

In the segment-by-segment, Bobby Lashley vs. Tommy Dreamer lost 46,000 viewers.

Noooo you were supposed to be the second coming of Bobby Lashley :smith:

Brawl 4 All was great because it showed that Bradshaw has a glass jaw.

They should have brought Butterbean in to the WWF afterwards and pushed him to the moon.

Actually everything about Brawl for All was great, right down to how they wouldn't let Shamrock participate and made Dan Severn drop out of the ranking after he won one fight.

Look at the bright side, when TNA inevitably folds Lashley will have accumulated enough experience to challenge Batista.

I want to see the parallel universe where they let Ken Shamrock participate in the Brawl 4 All, if only because he'd be guaranteed to last at least more than thirty seconds against Butterbean.

Insofar as the Brawl 4 All up to the point of Bart Gunn winning, apparently WWF brass actually did buy into Dr. Death's badassery to the point where they saw no there was no need to work his fights because they honestly believed that he'd win them all.

So what you're saying is that they're jabronie marks that worked themselves into a shoot by not knowing when to work a work into a work to work a shoot.

So was TNA on Velocity ever confirmed or is it still the most likely outcome when the year ends and TNA finds themselves without a home?

I just realized - WGN is OTA in Chicago, meaning TNA has to keep within FCC standards. How long before WGN gets a decency violation?

This depends on how quickly Dixie realizes that being off of Spike means that they can rehire Vince Russo.

wait, isn't Jason Hervey the guy mixed up with that GFW business?

That was David Broome, the guy that made The Biggest Loser. Hervey is Bischoff's best friend and may or may not still be in a backstage production role at TNA.

This reminds me: back in 2012, there was a story going around that Spike had gotten tired of Dixie's empty promises, and preferred to bypass her and deal directly with Bischoff. To the point that they excluded her as much as possible from conference calls and such. :v:

That would explain why TNA sent Bischoff back home and let his contract expire earlier this year.
