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

Actually, he'd probably draw 3,000,000 domestic, using all the fine throws and holds he uses with such class and pizazz. It'll be Menrymania. He'll end the streak and then force Lars Fredriksen and CM Punk to tearfully admit to their cottaging. Then him and Hogan will have streamers and confetti and stuff in a celebration, and the telly will be covered in pint after pint of my seminal fluids.

For a self professed ladies man you sure do masturbate over some weird things. Have you tried just using regular porn instead of these weird over the top detailed scenarios? What is it about Lars and Punk that turns you on exactly?

 

Edit: just to help you out in future Tim is my favourite member of Rancid, not Lars

I imagine that didn't come up because (from what I read at the time) it was her idea, not TNA's.

 

Something to do with her hair being badly damaged and starting to fall out due to all the hair dye/products she had used.

 

I did not know that. Never mind, then!

 

 

Who has a hard on for the streak exactly?

 

The company, its fans, the countless people who turn up with their "how many it is now+1 - 0" signs and little tombstones with all the previous victims names on.

 

The current landscape doesn't allow it, chances are whoever did it would be trading wins and losses with their next opponent for several months following Mania, and the streak-ending would have no lasting benefit.

 

Not if it were WWE Champion John Cena, they wouldn't.

 

So nobody should ever end it ever, partly for that reason, but mostly because Undertaker really is my fave and it's his thing and I always get invested in the Streak, especially the really close near-falls, and if one of those near-falls became an ACTUAL fall, I'd be distraught.

 

Thanks for proving my point. Millions of people across the globe in the same boat as you would be distraught. John Cena, you cunt.

 

 

I actually meant to put "(except for Cena)" somewhere in my post but then didn't because I thought it would diminish my own point to admit he would be the best/only candidate!

[PowerButchi]

I'm desensitised to normal porn, as I've been watching it since about 1995. Punk and Lars' poseur lifestyles and massive self esteem issues are what makes them hot stuff, and as a ladies man I can wank over whatever I want.

 

Anyroads, this topic's going (well, gone) a bit off on a tangent over the past few pages, of which I'm guilty of myself (I keep on thinking it's random thoughts) let's drag it back to TNA on pain of random time suspensions, gents. Will it be a minute? Will it be a week? Who knows? (I doubt very much it'll b e a week. I'm in a fucking great mood this morning for some reason)

Co-codamol?

[UK Kat Von D]

Well Butch I respect anyone who gives as good as he gets, so fair play for this mornings back and forth. And on a related note if watching the dismantling of those who's lives are better than yours gets you going I'll be happy to cry on webcam for you while you knock one off (for the right price.)

 

On topic though, fuck TNA.

[PowerButchi]

No worries, Maxwell. I love a bit of messing about in the mornings.

 

And yes, TNA is fucking awful.

 

A good question was raised on another forum. How much is TNA's tape library really worth to WWE if (when) TNA went tits? Some CM Punk matches for another DVD if they do one, and some Sting stuff. But I can't really think about much else if they don't have Angle or Jeff Hardy under WWE contract at the time.

 

Dunno if it's Co-Codamol, Raid. In all fairness I felt rough as dogs after this weekend out with Frankie Crisp combined with a couple of shows necessitating loads of travelling and I'm a really shit traveller, so maybe the fog has lifted. Who knows?

Only thing I could see the tape library being worth is filling empty time on the WWE Network. Maybe not full episodes, but just picking out random decent matches and having kind of a vintage collection styled show.

There would probably be some decent token matches to add to random compilation DVDs similar to when they'll bung a Jung Dragons v Three Count tussle arbitrarily onto a ladder matches comp these days, and there's no doubt if they wanted to due a "Strangest Matches" type thing there's plenty to go on there with Ultimate X, King of the Mountain, Feast Or Fired and Homicide struggling to get out the roof of that cage, looking suspiciously like a frustrated three-year-old having their first adventure on the climbing frame. Some of the Lethal Lockdown matches might be decent to have knocking around if they wanted to do yet another cage matches comp.

 

Realistically though all these are really insignificant - the only standalone project that I imagine that they would consider - weighing up the potential revenue against the cost of buying the library - would be a "The Inexplicable Beginnings and Spectacular Failure of TNA" DVD set, with all the notable worst garbage - tag team of wrestling penises, Shane Douglas throwing up, R-Truth winning the belt, Randy Savage pinning Double J after a punch, Pacman Jones, a cock being drawn on Samoa Joe's face, RVD being dumped on in his debut, Mr Anderson - lovingly embellished by a huge array of the WWE's big wrestling family chiming in to talk about Russo being worthless and Jarrett being a twat.

 

I'd definitely pay for three discs of the WWE's world class production team showing me how bad it was at its worst, and Vince's boys all having a collective laugh and circle jerk about it. Especially if it involved Mick Foley saying "I let them think I was joining them in 2005, but that was only japes" Flair likening Fortune to if all the Horsemen had been Paul Roma, and the Hulk stroking his fu manchu and chuckling "I was laughing all the way to the bank, brother."

I think Russo did some talking head stuff for WWE Recently, and has done interviews for wwe.com, so he might not be buried as much at the moment. Or least, if he is, he'll get a half arsed chance to put his side across.

It's a nice thing to have, for a good price. Can't see them selling much "Best of TNA" DVDs, though.

The money I would pay for that. It sounds amazing.

[KingOfMetal]

If they were to buy the TNA library, I doubt there's anything of worth from Punk's run there, you could maybe get a couple of Christian's ladder matches. Depending on personal terms at the time you'd get a decent amount of Jeff Hardy (even stick that Sting match on a DVD for a laugh) and stuff for a definative Kurt Angle career set.

Other than that, you'd get a random match or two for gimmick match DVD sets, but that would be about it

[Loki]

You got some good Sting matches, good Angle matches, and if you ever wanted to sign Roode, Bully, or any of their other top guys, then you'd have lots to do DVDs about them. But, yeah, mainly Sting and Angle.

[Up Chuck]

Yeah, for sure, even if they didn't have Hardy and Angle under contract, they'd crank out a DVD set for each of them and redo the Sting one. I doubt they'd make a killing out of the TNA library, but a) they'll buy it anyway because they buy whatever they can and b) let's not pretend they won't pay peanuts for it when the time comes anyway.
