Sending a part-timer who is famous outside of TNA money though. I think that cancels out the TNA never paying people thing

Is it something that WCW would have done? If yes, TNA would probably do it.

Even TNA isn't that lame.

I dunno. Whenever anybody has said that TNA couldn't get any worse, they buckle down and by God, they prove that person wrong.

why though

Like, yeah what they've become is sad but sad is basically all they've literally ever been

Well, you know, before they were sad but had talent to mis-use. Now they don't even have that.

Well, let's see now. If you burned your money, not only would you be out money, you'd be contributing to global warming. Maybe it would be just the thing to cause the Pine Island and Thwaite's Glaciers to break away from the West Atlantic Ice Sheet, spilling trillions of gallons of ice in to the ocean, raising worldwide sea levels by 10-12 feet and killing and/or displacing millions of people.

On the other hand, TNA.











Just burn your momey.

2005 highlights from loltna in no particular order


a banner year, clearly

They did have that awesome three way match between AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Chris Daniels that year, which was the peak of TNA.

If you're getting checks from TNA that are likely to bounce, would you rather get drunk and snort cocaine, or get in the ring and risk getting injured working with a roster of nobodies on a network nobody gets

Is that the one where Kurt says on the hype video "I am in the best shape of my life" then it opens with Kurt listing his current injuries.

At that stage in his career those two things were not incompatible. Kurt was truly hosed up by the time he got to TNA.

Kennedy was always fun on the mic but how he did in the ring seemed to depend HARD on who he was in there with. In TNA he had some matches with RVD that were just complete messes, but then had them Bubba Ray and looked fine.

Restart the match! No! Restart the match! No!

lmao that chant was incredible

Victory Road 2011. A PPV so legendarily bad that Sting shoot-pinning a wasted Jeff Hardy in the main event in 90 seconds was the third worst match of the night.

Global Force Wrestling is suing Impact over copyright infringement. :laffo:


Jarrett must be running low on global force gold.

Aren't you supposed to sue people who have money? What on earth is JJ's endgame here?
