  1. Fresh Faces for the Summer

    That seems like a good time of year to pair up some long established big name champion with first timers. Not that any of them should win a title but to really open the window and let some fresh air in. This isn't intended to be another who should get a push thread. Although it sounds like...
  2. If Hogan's Knees Weren't Shot...

    Would he become TNA champion? I don't mean a year long reign but more like one month. You seriously have to consider that if his legs were healthier and even at 56 years old, don't you think he'd want the distinction of being a champion in EVERY major organization? Another question is, do...
  3. World Championship Unification?

    In case you haven't noticed, wrestlers show up on both shows to do business without kayfabe restriction. It's cool but then it made me wonder how much longer until the aforementioned unification happens. Maybe never. I know this concept didn't work in 2002 which led to the resurrection of the...
  4. Too Many Concept PPVs or Is WWE Content?

    As we all know, there has been a major shakeup in ppvs in the last year and a half. No more Survivor Series. I never thought it would happen. Still, I looked at just the names of some upcoming ones and snap judgement tells me it's getting weird. Not terrible but, for instance: Fatal...
  5. PeepShow- Peeping At Giant Cocks and Balls

    I just needed to say that. I gave you a one point negative rep and you take away 30 points with no reply to the thread? I don't mind losing points, they're just a little bonus but reply to thread smurf. It looks spiteful otherwise.
  6. The Monty Brown Club

    I might be alone here. I still thought I should give it a try. Monty may be pushing 40 but I want him back! I've always thought he was very entertaining and even with his limited mobility, he still had some good matches. He can talk, has the catch phrase and the look. He's an instant main...
  7. Thoughts On John McCain's Possible V.P. Candidate

    It seems like these rumors and analysis from "experts" mirrors the ones for wrestling. I digress... The biggest front runner is Mitt Romney. He's a good choice to cover his evangelical and otherwise rabid religious base. McCain is pro-choice and that doesn't sit well with grass roots...
  8. True or False: MMA Will Be An Olympic Sport In Our Lifetime

    I'll say true. It's contested the world over and has true sportsmanship quality. It seems that the IOC doesn't like elbows to downed opponents. Well, you could treat it like boxing. In Olympic boxing knockouts are irrelevant. They can happen, but it's about how well you apply your art...
  9. All Hail Joey Villasenor!!

    This guy needs some publicity! He's 26-6 and has beaten David Loiseau, Phil Baroni and had a great fight with Ninja Rua for the title. He looks like a real complete fighter and I think he could compete with the best. He trains with Jardine and St. Pierre and it really shows. I would love to...
  10. King of the Cage

    Ok, so I don't know much about this promotion. I just purchased a dvd set from amazon for $1.50, $4.48 after shipping. I'm really looking forward to watching because on the box it claims to have 101 fights and over 20 hours of footage. It sound like a great bargain. Does anyone know what...
  11. Feelings About 2008

    I think TNA has done a great job this year. All the ppv's away from the Impact Zone is a really a milestone. Joe as champ, the super friends, Jarrett's return. I think this a seminal year and will continue into the future. For all the complaints I hear I still see fans attending shows and...
  12. Stallone Request

    For anyone willing I'd love a Stallone/Rocky/Rambo banner. Here are the specs: Theme-Stallone as Rocky and Rambo Colors-Red, White and Blue Text- On the top of the sig I'd like Stallone:, and on the bottom simply The Man Font- No preference although the military style font might be...
  13. Complete This Sentence: Frank Shamrock _______

    Retired too hastily. The story goes that he walked away because there was no money in MMA in 1999. He needed to care for his family. Ok fine. He took too long in coming back and he's not capitalizing. He's 35 and still has name power. I don't know what the deal is with him and Dana...
  14. Thoughts on the Gracies: Legends or Over-rated?

    I took basic Gracie jiu-jitsu at a local gym here for a month and enjoyed it. Even the guys taking belt classes all love Cesar Gracie and the whole she-bang. Royce Gracie won the first 2 UFC tournaments before there were weight classes and any rules. He broke some arms and legs and was the...
  15. Floyd Mayweather? Pacman Jones? What's next?

    I'm not against having celebrity influence in big events. Maybe a special ref or enforcer. When they try to wrestle it's a fuckin disaster. Anyone remember Rodman or Leno in WCW? No? Good! Who the hell else will wrestling dig up? David Beckham at Summerslam. Perhaps Vinny Testaverde...
  16. King Kong (2005) Request

    Theme: King Kong Text: Real King of Kings Colors: Grey & Blue Size: 600x300 Pics: They're in abundance everywhere so it doesn't matter Thanks guys!
  17. Lights, Camera, Overlooked

    This also is applicable to the WWE section but I prefer to stick around here. Without the technical crew, watching wrestling on tv would go back 30 years. Filming an entrance a particular way. The closing, tracking camera on Sting or the Kurt Angle steady entrance, it all comes together...
  18. White Boots and Other Observations

    Is it possible to not look at a wrestler seriously with white boots? Stay with me, I'm not trying to be too silly. Robert Roode has a great gimmick now like Ted DiBiase. I can't help but notice his big white boots. They don't look right. He should have some darker color with an ominous...
  19. Total Nonsense Accusations?

    I've seen on other boards and even dvd reviews on amazon.com about some high profile people in TNA. Notably Kurt Angle and Sting. Are the very wrestlers brought in the legitimize TNA also destroying it? I can't tell right now. I suppose a part of me is in denial if it is happening. It's...
  20. Seminal Moments in TNA

    What moment or incident defines TNA wrestling? A signing? A match? There are some very humble beginnings to speak of and growth to match it. I some that really jump out. Christian Cage debuting. I really became a fan in late 2004 of the Captain and followed him directly to TNA. I watched...
