TNA Wrestling General Discussion Thread

[Kross Rhodes]

I just dont think its reasonable to hold random wrestlers at a higher standard that I would hold myself

That’s fair, but if I was wrestler I would hold myself to that standard. I would try my best not to speak on this weird WWE/AEW thing. Which is where most of this troll nonsense comes from. Because they mistakenly believe AEW has no stories.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

I would have said worse to that dude

I actually wish he did. If his comment was more brutal and targeted, it would have been funnier and less vague.

I literally told Bish yesterday I was sorry nobody wanted to let him run a third company into the ground

that's technically on TNA topic so we back on track

Those matches announced don't excite me much but they seem decent for a tv taping - curious who's gonna be fighting who and the next pape

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Light hearted trolling by friends on this website is not the same as responding to a wrestler that doesn't know you, who wasn't talking to you, and telling him to shut up about wrestling and focus on stories.

But noted that it's more similar to you than me

Just a come back to this again just want to clarify once again when I was talking about trolls I wasn’t talking about anybody I’m talking to here.

Once again, that was on me. I should’ve been more clear.

To be fair to Bischoff, even though I do think his comments on AEW are stupid I don’t think WCW was his fault. I think he gets blamed for that way too much. If it wasn’t fe him WCW wouldn’t have ever even become the only company in history to beat the WWF for almost 2 years but also, I honestly think them firing him was the worst mistake WCW ever made. Granted I hated his 1999 booking but ratings wise and buys was they were still OK. It was the firing of him that torpedoed the company into the ground.

TNA was a whole other thing. That was a mess.

He didn’t get that TNA wasn’t WCW and it was 2010. My goodness. Talk about killing an identity.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

But I also blame hogan for TNA more.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

nah Bischoff is a fucking clown lol

 

[Bobby Barrows]

I also blame Hogan for WCW. Just fucking lose clean to Sting, you fucking clown.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

He provided me with my favorite wrestling promotion so I have to respectfully disagree, but I agree his takes on AEW are trash.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and who hired and enabled Hogan the most in this entire career? couldn't be EZ E

Yep. And scores of others he should have put over.

understandable

Without hogan there wouldn’t have been a thriving WCW either. It’s a two-edged blade.

However WCW would have survived 2000 if they didn’t panic at being a successful number 2 in 1999.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I'm just saying, EZ E has to take the blame too in the same way Tony has to take some blame for how much bullshit he let Punk get away with

 

[Kross Rhodes]

understandable

Which is funny because these conversations are often more nuanced than some like to admit. WCW was more sports presented than the cartoon WWF at the time. There always a good balance to be found in wrestling.
