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

Urgh they look like they've turned up at the Citibank induction day.

Thats one of the reasons I hate guys wearing suits or formal wear in wrestling unless its part of your gimmick or style, otherwise you just look bland suits are the like plain black trunks these days

[King Pitcos]

Watched the clip on Youtube. The one in the blue shirt wasn't that bad, but the bigger guy was distractingly awful.

Sting as the new investor is the first thing i thought of when reading that, and low and behold as i read down the page other people thought the same.

 

It's bound to happen.

At least it's somebody new in the door that have something resembling a bit of buzz. Bad Influence v American Wolves has potential, if Richards and Eddie Edwards are any good.

 

Promo-wise, do these two have anything worth bothering about?

Davey Richards says Michael Owen-style "you know" an awful lot:

got 2:30 in (6 "you know"s) before I had to turn it off due to boredom

14 "you know"s in 2 minutes

a 5:31 split piece between Richards and Tyler Black and Richards gets about about 3minutes and says 31 "you know"s

The investor will probably be some Jeff Hardy or something. Why not?

[Buzz Lightyear]

Surely JJ is the investor?

[wrestlingmad]

Dixie's mother is coming on board as a on-screen character?

The bloke who tried to buy them and just quit for real? It'll be some bloke from the roster like always. There's just zero thought past "let's do a new investor angle!" with this company. There never is. One thing you can guarantee, it will be disappointing or underwhelming. Its all special referees, investor angles, heel stables vs divided babyfaces and authority figures. Every clich

I'm not being funny, but is there a general consensus on when the show was last "good"? Or has it always underdelivered?

[PowerButchi]

It was alright at times in 2006.

[garynysmon]

Hardly missed an episode in 2012. Early 2010 was at least fun to watch too.

TNA haven't got a live show is ages, so whoever it is, its probably not going to be some elaborate work. We'll be reading it in the spoilers, which goes against their mentality. We'll possibly find out from the UK tapings, whoever it is. If it was a big inside thing where its a mega surprise, we'll know via spoilers weeks in advance, so it seems pretty pointless. I think they are either banking on Sting or AJ re-signing or they'll just wheel Al Snow out.
