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

So, who's going to book AJ Styles vs Zack Sabre Jr. then?

[cobystag]

Some promoter just needs to run Styles vs Red again. Take it back to 2003.

 

I'd prefer a Paul London rematch. Hope ROH book it.

It's UK tour time so Hardy needs written off TV to cover for his inability to enter the country for the tapings.

 

Ah, forgot about that. Cheers for the update

[Carbomb]

If he went would he even make the main roster? Or would they hero him? You can never tell with wwe

 

Hero/Ohno got released because he continued to look like a condom filled with porridge and refused to do anything about it. AJ, barring a few wobbles, is usually in decent shape.

 

That said, Styles has a massive tattoo displaying the name of someone else on the roster. The only thing that coukd save him is shoving him in MVPs old outfit (and that probably wont help in the long run)

 

Doesn't have to be MVP-style gear, that's a bit extreme. Could have a singlet or even the Bret Hart/X-Pac-style singlet top with tights. Talking of which, does anybody wear gear like that these days? It's a good look, but I can't think of anyone who does.

I totally get why a Spud is on TV, and actually think he's pretty good in the role. But why the fuck did they put him in it as "Rockstar Spud"? His current gimmick couldn't be any less of a rock star. Does the name really have that much goodwill attached to it?

[Big Benny HG]

I always thought Jeff Jarrett would show up as part of the US version of AAA that's supposedly starting in a few months. They're supposedly looking to snap up US indie wrestlers too, so the likes of Styles (if he is genuinely available), Ohno, Roderick Strong (who is currently out-of-contract with ROH, hence why he's able to do EVOLVE at the moment) and that sort would probably be on their radar.

[UK Kat Von D]

This Jarrett promotion sounds pretty interesting if anything comes of it. Probably worthy of it's own thread if he manages to get Alex Shelley. Hopefully it has a women's division made up only of Scarlett Bordeaux

What a great way of putting it. I'm even just enjoying saying that outloud.

I guess the explaination would be that he still thinks he's a rockstar. He even busted out a song when searching for AJ Styles in a bar. The commentators seemed to be just caling him Spud though, so maybe i'm giving TNA too much credit.

Last Nights One Night Only PPV Taping. I like the 'low production' look of it. Their TV should had been shot in venues this size.

TNA, live from Grange Hill boy's gym.

[The Cutting Edge]

Looks good.

 

Clutching at straws lads Im afraid

[IANdrewDiceClay]

That's actually going to air on TV. Its an empire. I wouldn't be surprised if they hired Ken Dodd to join the BroMans. Just because you lowered your sig doesn't mean you should lower your standards. At least cover the whole floor with crash mats instead of leaving gaps.

How does that look good? It looks like about 300 people.
