    Chris Jericho : How big an oppourtunity did they miss?

    The millenium man. How often could you class a record 9 time intercontinental champion, 6 time world champion and a 7 time tag team champion a missed oppourtunity? Can you at all? Normally I'd venture it being the latter but even though Jericho was given may accolades he was never given the...

    Is there a better Jr Heavyweight than Devitt currently?

    Questions basically up there, he's had a good match with Tanahashi which made him look like a bloody star, the great 3 way with Ibushi and Low KI (Hitman suits ftw) and now he'll steal the show with Shelley in a month aswell. So yeah is there any better Jr Heavy currently?

    Could Bully Ray be TNA's JBL?

    Bully Ray is considered to be one of the greatest speakers in TNA, John Layfield was considered the same after his WWE title reign. Both were reguarded as tag team midcarders for life before a heel turn took them to the next level and we experienced two of pro wrestlers greatest heels coming out...

    Should Chris Hero have been the man in 2010?

    Who's your hero? It's Chris Hero... Kevin Steen was an agile big man who lacked personality, Generico was in a similar but smaller boat, Danielson was rolling barrells around on NXT, Rollins was as dull as dishwater on the mic and Aries was lacking in motivation, so the question should be who...

    Is it just me who's noticing the similarities ?

    Between Gargano and Punk on the mic? They both have that unpolished charm to them and every word they say seems to be real, from a media standpoint the pacing and tone is wrong but from a promo standpoint that makes it so relatable. More so the start of this one, but it's there.

    The best thing about Matt Morgan since his return...

    he's learnt to wrestle like a 7 foot giant, the major gripe I had with him before was he always sold everything like Rey Mysterio. Overselling is something I tend to love but it didn't fit Matt in anyway shape or form but now he's cracked the selling enigma and now he's ticked every box...

    So why was Hogan so limited in the WWF?

    Oh brother During the gold age of wrestling one man ruled the entire kingdom, clad in red and yellow he hailed from Venice Beach California, it was indeed the immortal Hulk Hogan. He showed he could go in Japan in match ups against Muta and Hansen in the late 80s and early 90s but his matches...

    So who does heel Orton feud with?

    Many on here are seemingly begging for it to happen, Orton is a more entertaining persona when he's allowed to cut loose and the heel road seems to be the only way to do that in the WWE's black and white world so who does he feud with? ADR after he drops the WHC to DZ could offer some...

    Will Cena play second fiddle?

    Since he was drafted to Raw on an episode of The Highlight Reel on June 6th 2005 John Cena has been the man in the WWE, some of the part time talents have been larger than him such as Brock and Rock but it's always felt as they were coming into his world in short bursts before riding off again...

    It's all in a name?

    The comic is irrelevant except it made me laugh and is based around the center of this thread. El Generico recently signed a WWE contract and has worked dark matches both masked and shockingly unmasked, this has caused a very interesting issues within this forum. These are mainly based upon...

    Impact Wrestling dream matches

    Simple enough thread, what are your dream matches for TNA which are plausible, why is it a dream match and how would you like it to be built? I'll start with the big one : Austin Aries vs AJ Styles Why is it a dream match? You have two of the most athletic guys on the planet, they were that...

    Could it have been Machomania that gripped the world rather than Hulkamania?

    The beat goes on "A cup of coffee in the big time, yeah a cup of coffee in the big time." Now the timing may have been slightly off as Hogan was already WWF Champion and on the route to immortality but theoretically did Savage lack anything to be the immortal one? He had the mic skills to...

    Is Bully Ray under rated?

    We all know he's a god on the mic but his ring work seems to be slightly underrated from what I've seen, he's no A double who'll pull out a five star match with a broomstick but if you expect a good old fashioned brawl with a heel who'll use his character interaction to a tee not many seem to be...

    Has anyone topped Austin's run in 2001?

    From a quality stand point did anyone tear things up like the Texas Rattlesnake did that year? Great matches? Check. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aM1Z266PBMQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJb9sC4I2J8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNLkMhKFKTY...

    Does a win over Chris Jericho mean anything ?

    He's jobbed to so many people but never seems to put them over, Dolph causing his contract to be terminated didn't really boost him. I love Jericho but I can't help but feel him jobbing is pretty pointless from a character progression standpoint. So yeah post your angry comments below :obama:

    Joey Ryan - should they alter his gimmick?

    Hey Testify hop on for the moustache ride of your life. Recently Joey Ryan's "other career" has been played up a fair bit on commentary when he's actually on TV and I'm starting to think they should start playing to it more. He can keep the sleazy nature but as Val Venis shows a pornstar could...

    Could a stiff style of wrestling get over in the WWE?

    Apologies in advance for bringing Japanese vanilla midgets into this section but could the stiff style used by many in the orient firstly be viable in the WWE and secondly get over? If so who would you like to use it? The prime example is the match below between Misawa and Takayama below...

    Is it just me who's a bit annoyed by Brock's MMA style?

    I re-watched his match with Cena a few days ago and whilst the elbows were great and the kimura is the best submission move in the WWE currently IMO I wish he'd vary it up a bit, he always seems to either shoot in for the double leg or go for the kimura now where as before he'd bust out a lot of...

    Am I being a blind optimist or is everyone else excited about TNA's future?

    This company has had so many false dawns (Angle's debut, Hogan's debut, Monday Night slaughter and some other shit I'm forgetting all spring to mind) but I can't help but be optimistic, the fresher talent is taking over (Bully dropping weight means he can go for another 5/6 years IMO) while the...
