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

[King Pitcos]

I watched this week's Impact and was quite impressed. I'll probably watch next week, too. Mr Anderson looks tiny now though! It took me quite a while during that first Aces and Eights speech to recognise him.

Which episode is on Challenge tonight? Is it the post Lockdown one?

Looked up Mia Yim. Hell, yes - more of her please.

[pgi86]

Indeed. Mia's quite good, both to look at and in the ring.

 

I'm quite pleased to see Santana Garrett on this deal too. She used to be Orlando Jordan's valet in TNA, for like 2 weeks or something. She's also the chick that Scott Hall was putting over big time in his YouTube videos a while back when he was doing them. She's good.

Just watched the Sting/Aries match. Christ I wish Sting would make some effort with his attire. Horrible blue gloves and boots, the singlet is vile and his constant wearing of a over sized t-shirt is dreadful. I love Stinger but would it kill him to wear some decent gear?

The baggy shirts are to hide his gut, but thats the least of his problems. He looks like an old aerobics instructor or something. Bizarre stuff.

...and then Hogan comes out on crutches.

 

For me, if either are not in a condition to look presentable on TV then keep them off until they are. It doesn't look good for company in my opinion.

Hogan on crutches is fine, but Bully being intimidated by him on the ramp (after easily mullering the 100% healthy Angle, Hardy, Joe etc) is fucking stupid.

[Smith]

 

Daffney and Amber O'Neal showed up and were in the crowd protesting. TNA basically paid her to stalk them.

This is wrestling. Sting is 53; he's not got a bodybuilder's physique, but he looks ok. He's hardly Flair in WWE or anything. You suspend your disbelief for the old guys, that's part of being a wrestling fan.
