Loki Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 If you can take your eyes off the Gallows thing, watch Wes Brisco beating up Kurt Angle in the background. It didn't look pretty. He looks really awkward. If they put him with Garrett, I'm certain someone is have a joke somewhere. Â I noticed that too! Â Just got done with this. You all seem to like talking about the episodes before they're even shown over here, let alone give me time to watch, so fuck you. Â Thought this was good. Sting took a great beating, looked like DoC killed him with the hammer to the head. Magnus is getting a push, even Joe looks a bit more lively. Â What's great about TNA at the moment is that there's a reason for every segment and match. People are fighting for a reason, either grudge or to win position or opportunity. Storylines intersect and cross-fertilise, and feuds can run in parallel and be revisited when it seems logical to do so. In many respects, this is the best run of wrestling tv I've seen in a long time. Â One thing - Angle. Looking big again, REALLY big, as in starting to look like he did when he was last in WWE. Could this be a sign? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody with regular TV time has a reason, a purpose and an identifiable character. Like you said, it's the best run of wrestling TV in years for me, and for TNA ever.

simonworden Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 completely agree, however I would like to see a few more matches for the sake of competition and multimans just to get a few more people such as the x division guys get some TV time when not in a storyline. I used to love the 05-06 PPVs for those matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Dare I say it, but the X Division just doesn't have those sort of wrestlers/style any more? Particularly since the Sorenson incident, they seem to be going for a more Cruiserweight style. Either that, or this crop can't do the insane spots.

simonworden Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Very true, although it wasnt always about the insane spots that I liked those multi-mans, I always enjoy the Japanese ones put on earlier in bigger cards and they are never ott with insane spots. That said the X division could do with one or two luch style guys to keep it a little bit more exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Butternut Squash Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 How can one not miss King Kenny? The sooner Joey sleaze gets the belt and starts feuding with him the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanoTheGame Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I actually wish TNA would scrap the X Division, if anything. World, Tag and TV titles are more than enough for a 2-hour show each week. Isn't it about time they fucked the KO Tag belts off too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Doesn't Eric Young hold one of them anyway at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted November 19, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 Eric Young's done now anyway, by all accounts. His last date was last week. They could have turned them into mixed titles to give some of the women something to do. Jesse and Tara could have been a team, Madison Rayne is hardly on TV now so she could have been put with someone who never gets bookings with TNA now. Â I'm sure ODB and Eric forfeited the belts in a backstage segment a few months ago though. I think TNA bumped the Knockouts tag titles a while ago.

I think TNA bumped the Knockouts tag titles a while ago. Â They were still holding the actual physical belts at Turning Point. Dunno if the titles are still active, though. I agree they should turn them into mixed tag belts - it's something that's not been done formally before, and might make for a few decent storylines beyond just romance/marriage. Â Also, I don't think they should scrap the X-Division. TNA have proven they can book for it, and they put a bit of time into making it look halfway decent last year.
