Ok, so I watched this week's show hoping to see some improvement and I think TNA has hit an all-time low. The tag-team segment was by far the worst 10 minutes in pro wrestling history. Scott Steiner, who right before the PPV where he couldn't wrestle because of the injury, was a total heel when he bad mouthed Buh Buh & D-Von who were trying to give them props. Steiner goes on and on about how Puerto Rican are so great because they saved his life, thanking the nurses even?  ? Now, Steiner is acting like a face and must've called Buh Buh a "fat-ass" about 20 X's. ZZzzzzzzz Then, Buh Buh says how they were great in ECW, Steiners say how they're great because they were WCW champs and Road Dogg & Mr. butt say they are the best because they were in WWE. They actually named all 3 companies, who are all owned by Vince. Vince Russo is the biggest idiot ever. He should never have the talent acknowledge anything associated with WWE. Plus, his "top" 3 teams are arguing as to why they're the best when all their evidence is based on stuff they did in other wrestling companies. I hate them all being tweeners. It makes no sense. Oh, and Abyss using Umaga's butt bomb move.  I guess he was mad because Umaga did a version of his black hole slam against Jeff Hardy that put his to shame. This fed is total crap. I just don't get how anyone can like this fed. |

yes, some order must be restored to this fed they are planning all of their PPV's next year out of the state of Florida, the show is only 1 hour long, it really needs to be a "wrestling show" there isn't enough time to get in the microphone tough guys and the actual matches. They have 48 guys signed to their roster maybe a few less since the recent releases and they have Samoa Joe holding the x division and Tag team Belts and has yet to name a partner. and now him and Kurt Angle will be wrestling for all the gold in the fed? ? So one guy will own all three titles. This is something only WWE could get away with. this fed could be more exciting and actually at times can be, but they need to put some belts on some strong talent and keep them there for a while. They just had Team 3D with the tag titles and they were just featured in PWI with the headline "Is team 3D the best team ever?" I guess according to TNA they are not. |

I'm fine with the three way scuffle between, 3d, Steiners, and VKM, however, the promo went on too long. Scott Steiner couldn't get to the point quick enough, and relied too much on calling Brother Ray a fat a$$.
What I really couldn't stand more than anything is why can't Sting put over Robert Roode? Here's some homegrown talent that really has the "it" thing going for him. For some reason, they decide to put Sting over. Why??? Even Jarrett put him over!!

They have way too many guys on their roster.
Look at how WWE is running ECW. They have just a handful of guys and still give guys mic time and put on good matches.
That's how it should be done.
Get rid of the old WWE & WCW guys.

I think the roster size is a big issue, that absolutely need to either get it down to 25-30 guys, or add more TV time. .. they jsut can book so much talent in an hour.

I don't buy that all the veterans have to put over every single guy in sight. If that happens eventually beating the vetearan won't mean anything. I'm sure Sting will put over the right guys at the right time. It was a meaningless Impact match for Pete's sake. |

If it were Jay Lethal, Chris Sabin, or some other up and coming wrestler with a quarter of the talent of Robert Roode, then I would agree with you. However, this was not the case. They should be pushing Roode to the moon. This guy has all the talent in the world; in ring, on the stick, generating good heel heat from the crowd. Meaningless match on impact, or main event PPV match for TNA title (some people may still consider this meaningless too) Roode should be getting the victory, even if it isn't clean. |

Sabin is twice the wrestler Roode is. I agree Roode is being wasted, but so is everyone else on the roster. |

While I like Sabin, and Sabin may be a better wrestler, twice the wrestler, in my opinion, is a bit of an exaggeration. Maybe I've become a bit of an unrealistic mark for Roode, but I really think this guy has what it takes to carry TNA on his shoulders, at least as the top heel. Right now, you have Angle and Cage who are at the top. However, if TNA wants to go with someone who is homegrown talent to be at the top of the card, I think Roode is the guy who can do it. Having him job out to sting, in my opinion, is a mistake. |
