Monthly News Thread (September/October 2018)

[Paris in Flames]

Feel bad for him if he's done. So young with a lot of potential ahead of him.

 

[Sheppy]

Agreed. I wasn't the biggest fan of him at the start, but he started growing on me. His delusional stuff right before he got injured was pretty damn good. He was also very solid in the ring.

 

[BonMorrison]

He was actually really f***ing good once WWE turned him from smiling babyface to smiling entitled guy who thinks he's a babyface.

 

[Kimi]

Before it becomes a thing, can we ban youtube videos as sources? Especially clickbait ones that are just re-(or mis-)reporting what has already posted by news sites with a good reputation?

 

[Kimi]

Impact wanting AJ in the TNA HOF?

Unlike with the Flair/Sting situation I doubt TNA has a chip to bargain with.

And seems it won't be this year. They've announced that Abyss is being inducted this time round.

 

[Deen]

Jordan had a bright future and could actually ya know wrestle. That's too bad if he is done. That being said, him being Angle's son was one of the stupidest storylines in recent memory. Kind of ironic it is a neck injury, like father like son I guess.

 

[GKJ]

Sasha is off mixed match challenge. Mickie James replaces her

Thank god. Replacing a 2 with a 10.

 

[GKJ]

You're watching mixed match challenge every week?

 

[Jussi]

You're watching mixed match challenge every week?

Aren't you?

 

[GKJ]

Aren't you?

I do. But what's that matter to those who don't?

 

[Deen]

I do. But what's that matter to those who don't?

No, I don't watch that crap. Just Mickie > Sasha.

 

[Jussi]

I do. But what's that matter to those who don't?

If we're now playing "Questions only", what does anything really matter?

 

[GKJ]

Nothing matters if one finds the need to comment about thankful for something they don't pay attention to and claims is crap.

 

[Disclose]

Then again... That’s basically the whole board. They don’t watch and call it crap.

You're no fun anymore.

 

[Disclose]

Wwe shares reached 90.10$ today.

A few weeks ago it was reported Dunn, HHH and steph sold millions of dollars worth when it was at 80

Applies to prospects as well.

I thought it was Earl Hebner.

 

[Kimi]

I thought it was Earl Hebner.

That was a few years ago.

 

[GarbageGoal]

That was a few years ago.

Weird. They referenced him last week and I thought for sure they said he was going in. Oh well.

 

[Kimi]

Went and looked it up to see which year it was, 2015 with Jerrett.


For the joke that TNA has been at times, their hall of fame is actually legit good when you look at it:

2012 - Sting
2013 - Angle
2014 - Team 3D
2015 - Jerrett and Hebner
2016 - Gail Kim
2017 - (no one)
2018 - Abyss

The one thing that helps them is doing one at a time. They won't run out of anyone any time soon and it seems merit based, not just "well we have to do this every year so just pick anyone".

 

[KaseMeOutside]

It's really not even TNA anymore.

 

[Kimi]

It's not, but I can't call it anything else out of force of habit. I'd have to be watching it to make my brain get use to the new name, but I'm not going to so TNA is probably going to remain TNA for a while longer yet.
