Great White Hope didn't go into details but the "shenanigans" that cost Roode the title against Angle was Kurt putting his feet on the ropes for leverage while Bobby also had his arm under the ropes for a rope break.

I actually forgot if it was grabbing the ropes or grabbing the tights, and didn't care enough to check.

Either way it was the kind of gently caress finish you'd expect on TV, not the main event of the biggest show of the loving year.

So, Taz. The guy who was on both WWE ECW reunion shows, who's done all the TNA ECW-wannabe shows. Who cut a full on ECW promo with Tommy Dreamer at the tapings in August, who has a picture of himself with the ECW belt as his twitter pic, is ripping on "hardcore" fans.

Makes sense.

Pointing out that your show has TV and yet can't draw as much as a h'core niche lovefest is an interesting strategy.

His contract was up, WWE showed no interest, so I guess he figures "gently caress it, I'll be with this company until it goes under. I might as well say and do anything, even if it makes no sense. Dixie's the only one willing to hire me, after all."

Especially when your show doesn't -actually- have TV, they're just getting a few pity broadcasts because their former network feels bad.

This is the most hilarious thing. They don't even HAVE a tv contract, they are literally a charity case.

Bad news for TNA's much vaunted (but misleading) claims of rating dominance in the UK. The second run of Smackdown is now no longer behind the Sky Sports paywall, and is on Sky one, a channel with the same level of access as Challenge.

Nah you can get Challenge on basic freeview, you need Sky for Sky one.

Still probably going to be bigger than Impact, mind.
