THE GREAT WHITE DOPE

I gotta say after the past week TNA has had it is kind of my honor to be able to bring to you the forums view on the TNA world.   Sure, you heard some of it last week, but did you think the Hardy/Sting/PPV/Bischoff/Carter/Hogan/Hernandez/Wrestling/Muggle/Sackboy/Scott Pilgrim Evil-Ex/Psyduck/Pac-man (not Jones)/Blockbuster Clearance Sale/The Other Hardy conversation was going to die down after only THE DAY OF THE EVENT? Personally, I wish. Truthfully, it didn’t. But boy were we ever in an uproar.

I actually watched the event. I assume, and pay-per-view buys would back up, that almost all of you didn’t. The show wasn't that bad. The main event was a tragedy of epic proportions but overall the show wasn't terrible. It was mediocre but not terrible.   Such a gigantic event took place that brand new members to the WWI Galaxy jumped in with their two cents.   One of them with the scoop of the century that all internet sites wish they would’ve gotten a jump on. This will also be the most post-editing I do probably in the entirety of the time I am to do this report. Because, frankly, this brought out bombs from A to F then straight to S and M.

Of course, even in a few seconds, it shouldn't have been hard to figure out NOT to send Hardy out there and put someone else in, but they don't think quickly on their feet.

Aaron Wood

Yeah. hearing that Hardy ****ed himself up during the show should not really make TNA's management/creative blameless. There was still a ton of they could have pulled.

Like I said, they had the ready made story of "Jeff didn't know he would be defending the title against Sting, so we're not telling you when Hardy gets his rematch" and put someone else in.

The Chosen 1
Which if that is the case the first reaction is well "What could they do? They had to come up with something right then and there on the fly"... and then you realize ... "HOW THE **** IS THE #1 HEEL IN THE MAIN EVENT OF YOUR SHOW GETTING ****** UP THROUGH OUT THE NIGHT AND YOU HAVE NOOOOOOOOO IDEA UNTIL HE'S ALREADY OUT THERE!"

Markus Ramius

honestly after this latest fiasco i don't understand how TNA has ANY fans left. i would put this in the same category as the infamous "finger poke of doom" in WCW.

Galaxy

Why did Jeff, sober or close to it, do drugs RIGHT BEFORE his match. Man, I know wrestling is known for its drug users, but even most will at least try and put some restraint on their behaviour and not get visibily messed up before a match. I assume he didn't think he was going to be bad as he was, but still.

The Chosen 1

Goddamn... ESPECIALLY for a company that eats, sleeps, drinks and breathes WORKED SHOOT: They're gonna bring back the guy who got so fucked up before the Main Event of a PPV that they had to ruin the whole show for the fans....AS A BABYFACE? What the fuck man? WHY Would they do that? He should either A: JUST NOT BE ON THE SHOW AND GET HELP AND OR GET SENT TO PRISON SOON or B: Play into the fact that he cared so little about all this that he would get fucked up before a Main Event. He's already a Heel USE IT... They use everything else, They've got Kurt, Jeff & Karen running around, why try and cover up what was so blatantly obvious about what happened on Sunday?

            Sprout1883 (making his debut, and breaking the news of Punk’s uncontrollable bladder)

            this is wrestling?

            but you are right with Russo and everything, they should really play up that Jeff is   a tool and cares so little for the fans that he gets messed up before matches.
            How can people cheer for this tool?

            Punk must be pissing his pants at Jeff Hardy

                        Exx

                        I find it equally strange that his brother is still part of the group who threw him under the bus.

The Green Teabagger

So they've decided to build to Hogan-Sting--despite the fact that Hogan has been told by his doctors NEVER to wrestle again--to eventually happen and probably for the World Title, just so Hogan can get his win back from Starcade '97.

Also on the TNA agenda was the always famous Bi-weekly Impact tapings. Now with all of this controversy surrounding the company and everyone in it there is no way anyone would do something stupid there, right? Actually I had a trivia contest planned. I was going to ask the quiz question: “What group will be the first to try to get “heat" off of Japan’s tragedy?" See the problem with it came when I realized there were so few answers and I don’t like multiple choice. Basically it came down to

A) TNA

B) TNA
C) Randy Orton if he were a heel.

Anybody remember that? Man, Orton had no problem bringing personal loss and pain out in the open for some hatred. Imagine how he would’ve handled this whole situation. His comments would’ve gotten onto CNN by the end of the hour.

Luckily for Orton the unfortunate man of the hour was The American Made, none of that imported BS up in here, Hulk Hogan. Oh, Hogan…will you ever learn? (Note: I’m just copying Hogan’s tweet. There is no way I’m fixing all those grammatical errors. Also, I won‘t fix Aaron Wood‘s improper spelling because it‘s “right in the UK“ bull)

Aaron Wood

You know, I don't care that it's a mild spoiler, but if I didn't know any better, Id' say TNA were trying to deflect attention away from Jeff by doing something EVEN WORSE, because in a promo Hogan cut at the beginning of the tapings, he talked about Immortal in terms of being a "tsunami" in wrestling.

Hogan's actually apologised for his verbiage and said it will be cut form the braodcast, but like the huge douchecanoe that he is, his apology PUT HIMSELF OVER.

            "The tsunami of wrestling wasn't cool,it will never air,it's already cut out, but    when your cuttin promos old school and not following a Script like the other robots will no skills, sometimes you make mistakes. I'm sorry,I was on a roll and made a mistake.nothing but love and Total respect for Japan, but you guys     already know             that. I totally apologize. keepin it real HH4Life.Much respect,love for Japan HH"

Exx

Sounds like someone's bitter than he never got to avenge that loss to Yokozuna.

Markus Ramius

TNA just digging a bigger and bigger and bigger grave for themselves over the last few days. If Dixie had half a brain they would shut the show down for a month and reformat the whole show and relaunch it distancing themslevs from everything that has happened in the last year or so.

The Chosen 1

No. TNA is in a position right now where they NEED to make sure that they don't make the few people who like them, hate them... and saying that they are the Tsunami of Wrestling (To SOME People) might be too far... especially considering it's PRETTY MUCH The Apocalypse in Japan right now.

We need to end this whole thing on some sort of a positive note. So let’s give you a sneak peek at a Pro Wrestling Sitcom pilot that will probably never make the air. I don’t care about that, though. This has Colt Cabana (@ColtCabana ) in it. Also, we need this to at least it Youtube.

Do you know pro wrestling? Do you think you can predict exactly how every show will play out? Then join the World wrestling Insanity forums and get yourself in on the WWI Fantasy Game. It makes the old WWE Fantasy game look more polished, but this has TNA and ROH.

SQUEAKY

WWE Superstars, responsible for keeping the careers of superstars like Chris Masters and Tyler Reks, looks to be no more.   Where will we get the material for our C-Show Showdown? What programming will WWE put on to appease the .5 million fans who demand mediocre action from wrestlers they have no emotional attachment to?

Aaron Wood: According to prowrestling.net, Superstars is cancelled on WGN from April 7th.

TheGreatWhiteDope: Oh no, whatever will Primo do?

Mike Johns: Is this going to be a trend? Shows I used to review getting canceled?

Aaron Wood: That would be nice. Just need you to stop doing TNA. Possible with Squirrelz taking over, just in case he's the "catalyst" for cancellations, so to speak.

It's certainly something of a shake up come April. April 4 is the last ROH show and the first Tough Enough. I imagine that, much like NXT, Superstars will continue on wwe.com and internationally.

Bundorama: I'm the one that sent the email to prowrestling.net after WGNA sent me the email that Superstars was cancelled after April 7th. I sent another email asking if it would be cancelled altogether, or just air someplace else. The guy responded it was his understanding it would be cancelled altogether....

Raw was live from Pittsburgh this week.   Two weeks away from Wrestlemania and WWE put on…well they certainly put on a show.   It had announcers and commercials and everything.   All I’m saying is the go home show better be fantastic or else I’ll seriously reconsider spending my hard earned zero dollars to watch it on an illegal stream.

Markus Ramius: ..and just when i thought Cole couldn't be a bigger douche he does this.

shooting: Ok that is the best thing on the show. Its all downhill from here

JohnnyCraze: So, let's see. Undertaker beat Kane twice and HBK twice and now HHH twice!!

The Green Teabagger: Poor Ted DiBiase.   Dumb son of a bitch

Ravnos: So after thinking about it this week, I don't understand the Cole Mine. I thought Lawler couldn't hit Cole or he'd be fired and Cole was fine hiding behind that. Did Cole just realize that he'd pushed Lawler enough that Lawler might be okay with losing his job?

The Green Teabagger: No, WWE just got sick of trying to come up new ways to get rid of one of them through half the show. This way, Cole and Lawler can still commentate and there is no physical conflict.

JohnnyCraze: Wait, Rey Mysterio vs Randy Orton from WM 22?? Where's Kurt Angle?!

shooting: I'm guessing that they can't find Eric Angle to replace him

JohnnyCraze: I'm sure Angle fueding with Jarrett right now has the same feeling as being in the main event of WrestleMania!!

The Green Teabagger: Cole's burying the Divas again.....this is insane.   I want Beth Phoenix to walk out there and tear down the Cole Mine.

JohnnyCraze: Cole vs Eve for the divas championship....just wait

The Green Teabagger: That's the first reaction Eve has gotten since winning the Divas Title

JohnnyCraze: What will Cole reveal tonight? Lawler's dead grandmother? Lawler's dead cat?

shooting: Maybe Sonia (we all know they are going out with each other)

The Green Teabagger: Cole's trying to embarrass Lawler. Dragging out Lawler's 22 year old girlfriend would just be impressive.

shooting: Jerry is making Swagger look like a million bucks. Jerry took the WWE champion to the limit but gets taken out by one clothesline from Swagger.

The Green Teabagger: I can't figure out how to boo Snooki without cheering for Michelle McCool or vice versa.   I mean, even cheering for Trish is technically cheering for Snooki at Mania.   I can't do it...

shooting: Wait it takes Orton 4 weeks to destroy the Nexus but Cena never really hurt them?

The Green Teabagger: Duh, shooting.   Each member of the new Nexus received   The Randy Orton Super Magic Mega Kick of Final Ultimate Death!!! Upon receiving   The Randy Orton Super Magic Mega Kick of Final Ultimate Death!!! , a person immediately is out for eight months.   Dusty Rhodes was once struck with   The Randy Orton Super Magic Mega Kick of Final Ultimate Death!!!   and was actually coherent for a couple of hours until he smelled some BBQ pork. This revived Rhodes into the normal unintelligible man he is, plus he had some scrumptious BBQ Pork!

JohnnyCraze: Damn, Orton's wife is hot!! Remember Orton's fake wife?? When he was fueding with HHH and we saw Orton at his fake house with his fake wife in which HHH threw Orton out of?

T-Dog: Orton's wife from Feb 2009.

Orton's wife from last night.

Orton's really real wife

The Chosen 1: Why not just get your real wife to do it? lol I can't imagine they're lookin to Sara her.... just have her look scared of Punk

Squeaky: Seriously, it's not like the actress they hired was any good.

Markus Ramius: probably because they want to avoid real life relationships on TV, the wrestlers are actors why shouldn't their on screen wives be?

Aaron Wood: Hey, who is to say that this is supposed to be the same wife?

I think I know his next gimmick...

And, because we have more free time on our hands then we know what to do with, here are a collection from our Random Pictures Thread .   Believe me when I say that these were the only ones barely non-offensive enough to post on the main page.
