I don't see TNA ever coming close to overtaking WWE, and I don't see why they would need to. Find your own niche and stick with it. There are some quality matches on there week in and week out, and I have come to appreciate some of the talent there.....
Like I've said, I DVR -all- the weekly wrestling and enjoy it. I don't pine any hopes on TNA being #1. Don't see it ever happening.
The Voodoo Kin Mafia stuff and attempts to copy the WWE just come across as really pathetic, in an XFL sort of way.

4wiw aquinas, since you didn't see the show, the TNA mutants didn't help this match. One minute the crowd was chanting "JOE IS GONNA KILL YOU" then they chanted "ANGLE! ANGLE!" then they chanted "ANGLE SUCKS." By the end of the match they didn't know what to cheer, so when Angle slapped on the ankle lock, and when Joe went for the Kokina Clutch, they didn't pop at all, and were silent. Nothing. TNA probably has the worst live fans than any fed I've ever seen. That's not the fans fault though... when you make you're whole roster tweeners, that's gonna happen. After looking at the results and feedback, sounds like they may have botched the one of the two good things they had going.. why have Abyss swerve from heel to face like 4 times in one match?? That just doesn't make sense. At least LAX won... but why give Sabin the X-title?? And without pinning the champ (again) no less... Don't even get me started on how they took Austin Aries(Starr) from RoH, only to make him look silly and job to Alex Shelley? They had plently of guys there to do that already... AJ and Joe BOTH lost?? WTF? Why not sell to WWE and merge with OVW now.. . I didn't see it to comment on the wrestling, but the booking sure doesn't make any sense

I don't see it. WWE and TNA are nothign alike. Nothing. Christian never wrestled in the Main Events for the WWE Title on PPV's so you can throw that out the window. Compating TNA to WWE is like comparing rotting flesh to Carmen Electra. Settle down, he's not saying TNA is almost as good, just using the Sports Entertainment style, rather than, say a RoH style, or a 80s style... that has nothing to do with how good or bad it is, just the style.

Well they had their World Title switch on a DQ in an angle that didn't make much sense. So I guess they're just keeping par for the course. They won't sell to WWE because WWE doesn't need/want them.

I understand that. And I say they are two totally different programs. TNA just happens to also suck.
