  1. Best/Worst Finishers?

    Yokozuna and Earthquake had the worst finishers. They would LITERALLY jump in the air and land sitting on you. Mind you both of them were well over 400 lbs.

  2. Ultimate Warrior Had A Downfall

    Ultimate Warrior's downfall began because he would "go against the grain" of what everyone else was doing at the time. Meaning being secondary to Hulk Hogan. Because he wouldn't follow suit to that (and why should he), the wrestling world slowly began to demonize him.

  3. X-Pac Criticizes Carter & TNA Via Twitter, Predicts Its Demise

    If what he's saying about them making such a lie about him is even half true that's just pathetic on Dixie Carter and TNA management's part. But he's right. Unless TNA wants to end up like WCW did as part of WWE's video collection they need to shape up.

  4. TNA signs...Brooke Hogan

    I have to agree, and why someone like her would get ANY sort of authority is beyond me. Just what the hell does she even know about wrestling outside of her daddy being a hall of famer?

  5. Raw Moving To 3 Hours Permanently

    If they actually put MORE energy into actual matches and LESS into stage talking they might have a shot at making 3 hours work.

  6. Most Disappointing Match of All Time

    Honestly, my most disliked match wasn't even a major pay per view one. It was back in the old WCW when Goldberg took on Wrath. THAT should have been an epic fight. But instead, Goldberg beat Wrath in record time.

  7. TNA signs...Brooke Hogan

    I'm starting to think Ultimate Warrior was right about Hogan not being able to teach and raise his kids properly. I mean look at it, he had to pull strings to get her that music career that shot down the toilet. And now he has to pull his weight to get her in TNA. It's clear she can't stand on...

  8. Where can i find old attitude era's shows ?

    Wait are we talking like full episodes of these? I know you can get them on youtube. But depending on how and who recording them, the episodes might be fractured and segmented. So good luck trying to find full episodes WITHOUT them being split into parts.

  9. Who has the biggest mouth in the UFC?

    The UFC is fun to watch most of the time. And it's partially because some of their fighters have fairly big mouths. So it makes for good entertainment both in and out of the Octagon. So with that said, who do you think has the biggest mouth in the business? I put my vote in for Chael Sonnen.

  10. Is Jericho on the Way Out...Again?

    You know, I remember back in the day when I hated Chris Jericho. Like back in the WCW days he had a REALLY big mouth. And I was extremely happy when Goldberg speared him up the ramp and sent him rolling. He's still the mouth piece he always was. But now I have a certain respect for him...

  11. TNA signs...Brooke Hogan

    I guess the Hogan name has to exist somewhere in wrestling huh.....

  12. The Mighty have Fallen.

    Rob Van Dam definitely fits the bill for this one. I remember when he was in ECW and he was THE face of the company aside from Taz. And for awhile, it looked like he was going to be a big timer in the WWE. But ever since he lost that first fight to Brock Lesnar he was NEVER the same man again.

  13. TNA Star Re-Signs

    Well wrestling is looking for the next "big gimmick". So one can assume the rockstar style mantra fits the bill.

  14. Does anyone feel that the Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin messed up wrestling?

    It wasn't simply about the showmanship. Ok, I'll put it another way. How many NORMAL wrestling moves have you seen either the Rock or Austin do on a normal basis?

  15. TNA Star Re-Signs

    Except for that fact that Edge also had the "rockstar" marketable look to go beyond a B ranked guy. Gunner however doesn't have that luxury going for him.

  16. Does anyone feel that the Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin messed up wrestling?

    I say this because I started to wonder at what exact moment did wrestling change from grappling and slams to so much kick and punch thuggery. Think back to the 80's and under. Wrestling had so many technicians and it was mandatory that wrestlers put skill first before the showmanship side of...

  17. Who have you felt sorry for?

    Actually, thinking back further, I think I'd feel sorry for most of the women during the WWE "attitude" era. Some of the things McMahon had them doing was just demeaning.

  18. King Mo in TNA

    That's true, but the wrestlers need a fair share of both. You need the technical skills for credibility. And you need the character for the showmanship. The problem with so many wrestlers today is they less tech and more show. In recent years, most of the biggest names in the business had...

  19. What would it take for TNA to get on equal footing with the WWE?

    I have to agree with your list. ESPECIALLY your first reason. Getting rid of the ancient crew. I agree with the other reasons too. But the biggest reason TNA (and even the former WCW) was fairly low grade was because they let the old "legends" just hang around, taking up time from the younger...

  20. TNA Star Re-Signs

    This isn't a giant "wow" like deal to me. Sure Gunner is good at his craft. But he isn't marketable. He doesn't have "the look" so he will always be considered either a "B" rank sort of guy or a stepping stone for other potential greats.
