    I cant tell if this is just a kayfabe joke or they actually are using this as the professional video buildup

    As much as Cornette gives flips a hard time, I'd love to hear his hot take on TNA's mess.

    For those who don't sit on reddit all day, this is a better promo in 15 seconds than the Hardy's will ever do.

    TNA's had all sorts of problems paying their production people, wouldnt surprise me if thats all they can produce right now as a buildup

    Either way, its incredible

    Just watch it on Taima. The quality of that stream is really great since there aren't many people watching it. lol. TNA leads right into ROH, which kinda rules.
     
  8. I completely understand wrestlers need promotions to work for and all that but why in the fuck would anybody really wanna sign with TNA ?

    Because who does not love

    TOTAL!
    NONSTOP!
    ACTION!

    For real though, I never got why people liked TNA aside from a few great matches here and there

    In terms of exposure, its the second best thing you are going to get. There really isn't another option to getting your name out there quick in terms of television. Obviously, this is changing a lot.

    They paid a lot more guaranteed money and have an easy travel schedule
     
  12. I completely understand that, but to me TNA is pretty much a carbon copy of WCW in 2000. I see a lot of young talent not getting enough exposure on TNA due to the fact a lot of the old heads seem to be taking up main event spots still like they did in WCW. Not to mention Jeff Jarrett was a horrible owner and Dixie Carter seems to be doing just as a bad. But again I like you said wrestlers need somewhere to go to get a lot of TV time.
     
  13. While this is true, all that guaranteed money they paid to wrestlers really hasn't helped them any.

    I definitely feel bad for a lot of the guys. X Division has a ton of great, young talent. It's really sad when the face of your company has to tweet shit like this.

    That's true, I mean I'm sure they might think it's just a temporary fix until someone bigger offers them a deal. A lot of factors come into it.

    Giving Ultimate X or whatever it is called a six minute match is garbage. Trevor Lee is a standout and that match showed none of it.
     
  17. No doubt it's a temporary fix. More times than not a lot of these guys desire is to go to WWE and obviously that doesn't work out right away or never will. If anything I learned about TNA is that they suck with money aha.

    He looked like shit in his match last week. Then again, the guy he was wrestling is god awful.
     
  21. How scripted was this ?

    They told Joey backstage 'if they don't give you a go, just say what is on your mind.' At that point, he knew he wasn't getting picked so he just went at it. He talked about the whole thing in an interview a while back.
     
  23. I was going to say because he nailed it aha. I'm surprised he hasn't gotten a contract offer to join NXT.
