To be taken seriously, the idea of a union would have to be put forward by someone who has real clout in the company like John Cena or The Undertaker (in WWE's case) or Angle or Hogan (in TNA's).

But they're the ones who don't need one.

Here's a review I read about this weeks Impact

What an awful television show. Anderson beats up a fake professor, yells, bitches, complains more, has a chance to get a rematch FAIRLY, still can't' do it, blames everyone but himself, attacks anyone he wants to...WHY IS HE A FACE!? We've got another stupid concussion angle, and maybe the day will come when one is done well, but RVD, with his. Limited. Acting. Skill. Isn't the guy to do it, dude. Okada/Okato being FINE after being viciously beaten was just stupid. Ref only DQing Pope for one illegal thing, but after he did five billion other illegal things, was also stupid. Then Joe took nine hours to SAVE HIS FRIEND WHO WAS CLEARLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING. Now, granted, Joe hasn't been in a TNA ring in a while, so he might've forgotten how to get there, but I'm sure he should've found it faster than last week's mysterious darkened room.

I had no idea Mexican America was even coming out for a match since it began with Hernandez cutting a promo and then dropping two flags. Then for some reason, Devon was Morgan's partner. Then, for some reason, Velvet came to help, and then, for some reason, presumably magical powers, Angelina, looking either under a spell or emaciated, I'm not sure which, came out and didn't help. Then, FOR SOME REASON FOR THE THOUSANDTH TIME BECAUSE NOTHING IN THIS MATCH MADE ANY GODDAMN SENSE AT ALL, Winter came out and yelled. Oh, and it was a street fight. Taz noted it, said Devon was PERFECT for it...then Devon did his wacky spinny elbow thingy. And Morgan did his elbows in the corner WITH HIS BACK TO HIS OPPONENT. Probably not a good move in a real street fight. Oh, and the wizard of Oz might've rung the bell. Someone did. They teased the Wizard of Oz, and it might've been him, or the same person who drove the Hummer, gave Hogan a hummer, was the higher power, or something. Mickie-Tara was good, Madison looked HOT in her dress, Matt Hardy cut a better promo than Flair and Bully Ray. Rest of this show was just awful. Okay, the Captain America movie ad was good, too.

Who was that review from? Because it sounds like its from someone who is slightly anti-TNA.

The first segment was fine. Anderson is not a conventional babyface and I hope the moaning and bitching is leading him to join Immortal and turn heel.

Not a fan of another concussion angle but the guy is slating RVD's acting? Arent you meant to act like your out of it after being concussed?

The Angelina spell stuff is pretty dodgy though.

I assume he's pointing out that RVD is incredibly wooden, and so shouldn't be used in angles that require someone to act.

It's just a guy from the WrestlingObserver messageboard. TNA Impact tends to be a running joke with some of the guys on the site. Alot of time with good cause considering how horrible some of the stuff is.

Hopefully Anderson goes heel, cause he's a horrible babyface.

I think the guy is saying RVD's acting of a guy who had a concussion was guff.

The Angelina Winter stuff was garbage. It reminds my of the old story Raven used to tell about an old wrestler back in the territories who used to "hypnotise" his opponents to win.

Well the spoilers i read says he shakes hands with Hogan so i'm guessing he is a heel and will take Jeff Hardy's position.

Apparently he let Gunner and Terry put him on their shoulders then and shook Hogan's hand then he attacked them. Still a face.

I'm really glad they capitalised on Gunner winner the TV title last week. I'm sure this will continue next week....

Edit - talking about UK pace

That rant higher up was ridiculous. It's clear that Anderson is playing the tweener role and to be honest I think it's pretty damn good.

Enjoyed the return of Daniels. Fortune vs Immortal is actually quite good, especially now Immortal has some bigger names in it.

I hear that TNA are talking about rebranding in an around the Impact name. Supposedly, this doesn't mean that the TNA name is getting dumped, but it is being considered.

I was surprised with the lack of blood until later on in the show. It just shows TNA can put on decent cage matches without resorting to blood and weapons. I was surprised at the Knockouts match being so short. Lethal Lockdown was fun although Ric Flair looked to be in a mess by the end of it, seeing Ric before he entered the cage though shows you what kind of shape he is in. He could put on a good match again if he really wanted to, as usual he played the fall guy and let the young guys have their way with him and made them all look great. Don't count Ric out yet, he can still go.

Personally I'm just surprised Kurt Angle isn't dead. God damn.

I think Kurt Angle is in a lot better health than people would like to believe.

That's not what I was referring to, I was only talking about that powerbomb bump he took off the top. That was horrifying to watch.

Angle is just a machine, it must be all the milk he drinks. I thought he was done after that powerbomb.

Lethal Lockdown was pretty fun, huge pop for AJ when his music played.

Kurt Angle claimed that not only did Jeff Jarrett break ribs in their match on Sunday, but that he dislocated his shoulder. He said people needed to see the replay, that it was the Match of the Year, and that it was just as good as his match with Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania. The Lockdown match, aside from the near-death stupidity, was pretty damn great, but it was nowhere near Angle vs. Michaels at Mania.
The PPV was much better than last months crapfest. Angle vs Jarrett was really good as was Lethal Lockdown.
