Jeff Jarrett married Karen Angle?.

Yes.

 

[Forever Knight]

Was Kurt the best man?.


Jarrett makes me sick for doing that. His wife just died a few years back too.

Anyone here think Kelly Kelly is shaven?.

TNA is such a mess right now. What makes them think signing Mickie James will make a big impact (no pun intended)? There's a bunch of WWE rejects there, plus the old veterans that just never go away (Flair, Hogan, Foley, the list goes on), and the youngsters who will never rise to the top. When will they ever get it?

Which is why I give the WWE props for pushing the younger guys. Take Nexus for example. At Summerslam, they were in the main event. Before then, no one would put a group of rookies in a major angle.

I'm also kinda liking Kane's promos these past few months. Dark, nostalgic, epic. Not bad for his rumored final run with WWE.


NOW... what WWE needs to do is revive the Cruiserweght Divison and get **** going with Bourne, Bryan, Kaval, Gabriel, Tatsu, and whatever other smaller guys they got on the roster. Now is the best time to revive that title since they will be unifying the womens titles, and will be unifying the other titles aswell. Leaves room for alteast the cruiserweight divison.

Who said Mickie was making any impact? She's going to help reshape the KO Division.

There is NO such thing as a WWE reject. That's the most ignorant thing. If your good at cooking and got fired from a restaurant, I'm sure your next job won't look at you as a restaurant reject. If that's the case, WWE is full of WCW rejects. (Edge, Triple H, Taker, Mysterio, Jericho, Stone Cold, Big Show, etc.)

They never go away because they still have APPEAL. Nobody wants to see generic undeveloped wrestlers just because they are young. Flair is putting over guys, so I have no idea how you can put him in that category.

Last time I checked, AJ Styles, Pope, Anderson, Motor City Machine Guns and Fortune are getting the rise to the top.

There really is no legitimate excuse for anyone to say TNA does not push young guys anymore. Every major title is being held by one. No excuse to use whatsoever.

You think pushing "Young" generic guys like Nexus is cool but in the 5 years. WWE will come close to falling apart when Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Daniel Bryan, Miz and Ziggler all get pushed to the top and turns out to be non-draws. WWE is already losing Mysterio, Taker, Kane, Triple H, HBK to age.

Cena and Orton cannot carry the company any longer. And these "young guys" the IWC takes pride in has no potential to lead the company when Cena and Orton hit the mid 30s.

WWE thinks pushing generic guys into stars is the answer and it won't work. Their own stupid ignorance lost the true stars they could have pushed.

These days, fans would rather see the younger guys get pushed as well as different people get the world title shot instead of the same guys. Which is one of the reasons that I'm behind Sheamus being WWE Champ, right now. Seeing guys like Cena, Orton, Edge, etc being world champion so many times is starting to get stale.

In TNA, AJ Styles is suppose to the face of the company, instead he has to take a backseat to the older guys. The same with the others as well. The final straw was when EV 2.0 had Hardcore Justice. Many of them felt that their opportunity was taken from them, even if it was just one night.

That's because of WWE's doing. Sheamus is worse. Atleast Cena, Orton, Edge have an ounce of promo ability and entertainment within them. Sheamus is a big joke. WWE should have been pushing people with talent and ability like MVP, Kofi, Ziggler, etc.

Supposed to be? HE HAS NO PERSONALITY. He talks like a generic wrestler there is nothing special about his character other than his wrestling. He came off a 6 month title reign. That's better than nothing and I don't see how he is taking a backseat when he is the Captain of a TNA Original Team and TV Champion.

Fact is AJ Styles WILL NEVER BE THE FACE OF THE COMPANY. You have to be charismatic, entertaining and marketable. He is not.

Just because he won titles and did 5 star matches before when TNA was a footnote does not mean, It makes him good enough to be a star when he lacks star potential. He will always be a main eventer but never a franchise face.

Khali replaced Zack Ryder in a match against Edge.

WWE always reinvents disappointment.

I'm interested to see where Jericho goes next. That is, if he doesn't take some time off for his tour with Fozzy.

And NOC looks to be great with the US and World Heavyweight title matches.
