THey should have kept the old Womens Championship and made it more serious. They still got Kharma just sitting around doing nothing.

Defintely started getting shit when they retired the Women's Championship. I miss Trish and Lita :(

It went downhill when they started hiring models instead of wrestlers. All it is now is a joke to laugh at.
Anyway, WWF was better when the Rock and Austin were going around.

Beth and Natalya are the only two i think who are actually decent. Kelly Kelly aint too bad too. It just makes everything that Fabulous Moolah worked for so irrelevant.

Oh yeah is that little Irish guy in the leprechaun suit still around? He is awesome :D Edited by TheDjentleman: 24/4/2012 10:08:39 PM

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Shes awesome. i was disappointed when they broke up the Hart Group that they had. They could have built something really big with Legacy (Rhodes and maybe Magillicutty or Husky Harris), Usos, The Harts and DiBiases. Bring in the two south africans or the african pairing of Kingston and Gabriel, you have a really strong tag division right there.

It's fake. They're just actors/stunt people.

The amount of work they do is insane. Quite a few of them are really world-class athletes. Take a look at Shelton Benjamin for example. It's a shame he's so shit on the mic, he's got the in-ring skills to get a push for a world title.

Quote:PWInsider.com is reporting the "injury" Beth Phoenix suffered on RAW is apart of a storyline to explain why she would lose the Divas title to Nikki Bella. According to reports, Beth sold the worked injury so well that those backstage not aware of her creative plans thought she legitimately was hurt. She apparently sold the injury at the hotel and the airport in front of fans.
As reported earlier, the title change to Nikki Bella is expected to set up a return by Kharma.

Fuck, she worked it really well then. It definitely looked like she was actually in a lot of pain, even the ref thought she'd hurt herself.

I thought she was crying, which wouldn't have made sense to me (seeing as how Natalya and her were all about 'making the other Divas cry' not long ago) unless she was legitimately injured.

Found my copy of SmackDown! vs Raw 2009 for the PSP today. Playing it really made me miss ECW. That could've been so good, could've been a throwback to the Attitude era, but they decided to take the Extreme out of it.

No way was she legit injured :lol:
The match continued for way too long and the ref never made the X sign to signify a real injury.
You know when a real injury occurs. The end the match almost immediately and actually show multiple replays of the incident.

It's pretty trashy television most of the time, I wouldn't put it on a much higher level than shows like Jersey Shore nowadays the way the writing is done. Many of the "atheletes" are barely atheletes at all, just built guys on steroids that are good at talking shit on the mic (John Cena anyone?). Having said that talents like Kurt Angle, Brock Lesner (heard he's just come back :D), AJ Styles etc etc can make for quality entertainment. TNA had a great thing going until Hogan and the gang came in and ruined it.

AJ Styles is one of my favourites, trying to get back into TNA but without Foxtel it's hard. He's still got one of the best finishers in the business in my opinion.

But they seem to turn a blind eye to it except when there is a death or something they suddenly crack down on it for a while and make an example of a medial talent by letting them go (e.g. Chris Masters) and then once it settles down the blind eye is turned again. Yeah and AJ's not the only fantastic talent of his calibre in TNA. They have/had alot of guys who can do some amazing unconventional things, especially in a 6 sided ring.

Quote:They have/had alot of guys who can do some amazing unconventional things, especially in a 6 sided ring. Six-sided ring is gone, if I remember correctly. Replaced it with the conventional four-sided. Some of the wrestlers said it was more difficult to work in and they didn't think it offered much more.
