Well what did you expect to happen to TNA? WCW only lasted as long as it did cos it was being bank rolled by turner. once he was out of the picture the company swan-dived

TNA has gone even worse since Terry took over. I didn't think it was possible.

I hate them all, but I hate Russo more so he's the one that gets the "insult".

Re: The Wrestling Thread : Tue Jan 26, 2010 5:54 pm  

thought the opening section of last night's Raw was good. They are teasing a break up of DX and Legacy. But I can't really see what either team could achieve as singles at the moment. Legacy haven't really been given the chance to be a dominant tag-team which would give their eventual break up a bit more impact.

I'm with you mate, what a complete an utter t*t he is. Anyone who disagrees should watch:

- Jim Cornette's RF shoot interview
- Vince Russo's RF shoot interview
- Vince Russo & Ed Ferrara interview with Wade Keller

Serious him and Ferrara are clueless t***s, they know nothing about wrestling, only shock TV. Russo in his shoot interview with RF said that him and Ferrara would write Monday Night Raw as they had Jerry Springer on in the background. Although the Attitude Era was awesome, the credit must surely nearly all go to Vince McMahon. Reason been, what positive things has either man done since 1999? (i.e. when they left WWF and didn't have McMahon to filter out the s**t from their scripts).

The real creative geniuses in wrestling are the likes of Cornette, McMahon and Heenan IMO.

I became a 'fan' of Russo's facebook page; He began shooting in blogs about dirtsheets and smarks criticising him. Then he asked for fans' Q&A... I wrote a comment asking if the rumours were true that he was going to book a facebook page on a pole match at Genesis. I was soon removed.

Lol, you legend! That shows how big a hypocrite he is - for years he listened to the internet 'marks' and wrote the TV around what he thought they wanted (even though probably most fans at a TV taping won't even be internet regulars).
When I first saw his RF shoot years ago I didn't think he came across as too bad a guy. Knowing what I do now I think he's a disgrace to wrestling and him & Ferrara should be removed from TNA asap.
They both claim in a 2006 interview that they hate the wrestling business, it makes them sick, etc etc. Why won't they f**k off from it then?!
Wasn't watching WCW in 1999, but the clips of that Oklohoma (sp) 'angle' show them for what they were/are, making fun of a wrestling legend's real disability.
To$$ers.

What you mean Brian Knobbs? Hulk Hogan's buddy? You didn't expect him and a bunch of other Hogan cohorts to be brought along for the ride when TNA signed Hogan? Then it's clear you didn't see what happened in WCW when Hogan first signed for them.

IMO Hogan will be the death of TNA.

Re: The Wrestling Thread : Wed Jan 27, 2010 6:45 pm  

yeah load of sh**e if you ask me im not right into wrestling and dont take on the behind the scences stuff but even i can tell Hogan is killing TNA look at WCW when it was in its prime it rivalled and was just about as good as WWF (which was in its prime too) looks like their gooing to ruin another goodcompany shows how much you have too respect Vince hes kept WWE at the top so long
