Impact wrestling thread - It's a Don West tribute thread now!

[Big Benny HG]

Sooo... is that it then? Is TNA done? Or 'on hiatus'?

 

What's going to air next week? More 'Best of' specials? Or do they have some more of the unaired One Night Only PPVs they can edit into episodes again?

[RIDDUM_N_STYLE]

They are doing more tapings at Universal Studios next week I believe

[garynysmon]

Yeah, the first one is supposed to be live.

[Love-Wilcox]

EC3 is such a megastar it's ridiculous. He looked amazing this week beating the piss out of Spud. Speaking of Spud his character work is fantastic. Two brilliant highlights in an otherwise run of the mill show.

Another enjoyable show this week they did a great job of making the end of kurt angles time a big deal

 

Wasn't a big fan of the KOTM match but other than that I thought the show was pretty good

"Hey that's Will Ospreay in the ring already wrestling who didn't get an entrance!" Best new character introduction I've seen in a long time. 

[PowerButchi]

Last impact did the lowest ever number.

I must say that I find it odd that the ratings are going down when the TV had been fine to good since Christmas.

Because it's TNA and, in some form or another, they've burned their bridges with a LOT of fans.  The TV may be consistent at the moment, but they're always a twat hair away from monumentally fucking something else up.  They've lost everybody's trust and at this stage it's near enough impossible to regain it.

its because despite any attempt of making it "good" even the regular fans are starting to give up.

 

I would love to see the look on somebody's face, sitting there in his Mr Anderson t shirt suddenly coming to the realisation that TNA is utter gash, and currently towards the bottom of the "wrestling promotion" rankings.

Wasn't Nitro actually pretty decent in early 2001, whilst the ratings plummeted further? By that time the horse had well and truly fled the stable.

[air_raid]

I imagine for some people even if the rest of the show is coherent, trying to get your head around Matt Hardy as World Champion is enough to turn off.

Very good analogy to be fair.

 

Matt Hardy has been ridiculously entertaining as World Champion.

Yeah thats part of the reason I don't watch. He may well be the best hes ever been, he's still Matt Hardy
