fairplay to TNA, its been good for a while now but the A&8 stuff has gone to a new level lately, last weeks impact reminded me alot of the glory days of attitude era

if only they could get away from impact zone long term

They are away from the impact zone, all shows are now live/ taped on the road.

The end of the impact zone has come, TNA are on the road for good, TNA are on the up, I hope they ignore the ratings (1.07 this week) and continue down the same road, the ratings will come eventually.

I prefer it on the road to, the crowds are much better, was another pretty good episode this week, Bully Ray telling us how he did it all, and Taryn Terrell getting made a knockout, so she can now get her hands on Gail Kim, like we didn't see that coming , and i thought Brooke looked hot as hell in that dress

Could have done something else with AJ, instead of giving him the Sting routine, all thats missing is a bat, and seeing him up in the rafters looking down

They should have explained why D-Von forgave Bully considering what he did to D-Von's sons last year.

i havnt seen imapct but its my concern that they wont explain it properly.

bully and d-von behind aces and eights is fine but did bully mention when they made up?

also didnt the gang kick crap out of him at his wedding? did he make a joke about them pulling their punches?

i felt bully ray behind it all for a long time as he was always clearing the ring with chain but never connecting, they teased it,but then after the wedding beatdown i forgot about it

About the BIB, Yes, he did, he basically said, he took one of the team, he took beatings to alleviate suspicion of himself.
I will say, I am loving Impact Wrestling more than ever at the moment, I find watching WWE such a chore at the moment, WWE has lost its sparkle for me, Its just "Meh", where as TNA, is on fire, and I think its a crying shame more people don't give it a chance.

The last part: yeah and it is really quite sad for wwe that people are saying that at the time of the year that no one would ever use to say that, during wrestlemania season.

TNA is the more interesting and better show atm, but I think a small part of that is down to WWE having too much tv.

I have a fear however about TNA become so popular and successful. Maybe people will agree.
I wouldn't be surprised to see SKY put TNA behind a paywall in the future. Hope I am wrong though

I agree, Its The Rock being champion which is the problem, Its definitely the worst build to Mania I've seen in the near 10 years I've been a wrestling fan, It doesn't even feel like its Mania soon, they've been building a world title feud with video packages only, least when TNA were forced to write Jeff off TV when he was champion, they did a injury angle which to a casual fan, made sense he wasn't there.

TNA is the more interesting and better show atm, but I think a small part of that is down to WWE having too much tv.
I also agree, they are oversaturated, and the lack of major competition is a problem, they can put out, rubbish show after rubbish show, and not worry about it, because they are number one, I'm pulling for TNA to become huge, so they can threaten WWE into doing something, because they won't untill they have valid competition.

I prefer rooting for underdogs anyway, so Go TNA.. ^-^

TNA is alot better, less emphasis on the knocksouts is a good thing, they do not need 2 segments of a show!

still improvement needed and some matches go too long and disrupt flow of the show but the main story arc is very good and yes right now its overtaken wwe in terms of excitement.

Am I the only one who just can't stand Gail Kim? I think she is awful on the mic and she still wrestles WWE style rather than adapting to the Indie style of Wrestling that the likes of Mickie James and suchlike display.

That's the theory at the minute. I still think it's too early to call 100%, but if I were a betting man I'd say it's the most likely scenario. Particularly with the fact he can't get a title shot until Bound For Glory, it would be the ultimate redemption storyline. And we all know how much TNA loves those.
