I liked her when she was in Chikara, but she really wasn't that good. The biggest thing I remember about her was her botching the finish to a match with Ophidian that she screwed up so bad he actually yelled out "What the gently caress?" Also according to cagematch she's only wrestled 5 matches since October of 2015.

I'm watching ONO Knockouts from last year... A nearly 30 minute opening segment with Maria and Mike which is awful First match ends with ref distraction and a countout Second match is the Shelly Martinez - Rebel match. It's 6 minutes long, 3 minutes or so in it's bad, but nothing that bad. In just the last 3 minutes it manages to become the worst match I've ever seen on a televised event and I've been watching wrestling for almost 30 years now. Third match finish involves a ref bump There couldn't have been more then a few thousand people paying for these ONO PPVs could there?

It doesn't matter at all what Impact is up against. What really matters is their lead in audience, and the audience for the show that followed Impact. As long as Impact does well enough holding viewers, it doesn't matter. The problem is when they lose so many viewers, it's actually better for Pop to grab something cheap from syndication and put it in Impact's slot.

Just about everyone who went from WCW to WWE was misused, made a mockery of, or just slowly disappeared down the card out of WWE. The best thing Sting did for himself was going to TNA and becoming the one guy who wouldn't sign with WWE. Then he signed with WWE and they had him job out to Triple H at Wrestlemania because of course they did.

Benne posted:You know how 2001 WCW had a new booking regime and the product was actually pretty good for a while, but the damage was already done and they couldn't stop the company's death spiral? Me and my group of friends would switch back and forth between WWF and WCW on Monday night until like the last two years of the war. When Vince bought WCW I thought "I should flip back and see what's going on in WCW" and I managed to tune in for Dusty wanting to make Ric Flair kiss Dusty's rear end, which was a donkey Dusty was bringing to ring that had "Dusty's rear end" written on it. I tuned out after a minute or two and just thought that nothing of value was lost.

Randaconda posted:A small, regional Southeastern promotion may have been able to be successful after WCW died, since so many of their fans didn't go to WWE after the buyout, but TNA didn't really give people what they wanted. People are always like "What about those hardcore southern fans WCW had?" But really, the last two years of WCW was so bad and so much more like WWF/E like then it had ever been before, that it basically killed off what was left of the hardcore WCW fanbase. I might be wrong, but I think they even struggled to draw people to shows with Flair headlining in the Carolinas. Once those people stopped caring about wrestling for 1-2 years, they were never coming back to it. Especially not a fed with the initials TNA, girls dancing in cages, midgets jerking off in trash cans and booking somehow even worse then the crash tv booking that killed WCW. There's a small fanbase of hardcore wrestling fans who hate WWE, but for whatever reason hate Indy wrestling. So that's about the extent of TNA's fanbase over the years.

TV Zombie posted:What type of wrestling does this slice of fans like then? Ground based, submission wrestling? flashy_mcflash posted:No, they just want a WWE that isn't WWE. It's the people who still hung on through the dirt worst of WCW and were left without a home when that tanked. Pretty much this. It amazes me how often I run into wrestling fans who hate watch WWE, and I'll recommend some indies they could watch and support instead. The answer will always be "They are a bunch of nobodies". I should also throw in that of course they love NXT and everyone who comes through it, but have no interest in watching indies.

So the actual "dark match" that they couldn't film because the power went out was Crazzy Steve Vs Logan James. I thought Steve had to retire due to health issues that turned up when he tried out for WWE?

There's a lot of great Hogan stuff from his TNA stint. I just want to say my favorite is him forcing them to change Brooke Tessmacher to Miss Tessmacher, because there's only room for 1 Brooke in TNA and that's his daughter of course.

Plus it's hard to get excited over Impact signings anyway, especially after Bram signed about twenty 3 year contracts in the course of six months.

Chris James 2 posted:It is still, and easily, the best TV deal they've had post-Spike Hellblazer187 posted:It's the first move in a long time where the TV deal gets better for them. Usually they just keep going down down down the TV drain pipe. I mean is it really, when the only reason you got the TV deal is because your parent company paid out to just buy the channel? I guess it'll be funny in a year or two when they are doing almost no ratings, and Anthem finally gives in and let's whoever is running the channel finally cancel them.

I know it's different ownership, but in the past Impact has "suspended" people immediately after taping, and then ended the suspension just in time for them to be on the next set of tapings. Elign's been a shithead for years, just fire him.

Tessa and Impact are both awful, and I feel bad for neither. That being said, didn't everything about Tessa come out right before she won the belt? They could have just not given her the belt in response and none of this would be happening. Given Impact's history, I wouldn't do anything for them for free. If they want promos from someone whose contract is up soon and can't be there in person, they should be willing to pay.
