10 Year Anniversary of #August1Warning

[Cwalker]

It’s a shame TNA at their peak never became the #2 they should have been.

You can make an argument that in 08/09, they had the best roster in the world

Main Event Mafia had a whole Lethal Lockdown Match planned against Immortal.

But that went to hell when Booker and Nash went back to WWE.

But that's a good thing because we got the Fortune vs. Immortal feud that should have started as soon as Immortal were revealed.

Flair tries to align Fortune with Immortal (like he did successfully in real life), AJ and co. realise this is literally what they were fighting against with EV2.0 (old guys taking spots), beat the shit out of him and become the new top babyface faction.

As rushed as it was, I remember that reveal where Fortune turns on Immortal had me marking tf out, they did that moment so well

It was so rushed they had members of the second "they" outright attacking Fortune members

That would have been a dogshit feud. Mega-Immortal against Main Event Mafia featuring Angle, Nash, Steiner and Crimson

Tbh Aces and Eights was probably the best invasion/power struggle storyline TNA ever did, and they sure did a lot of them.

 

[Jimmy King]

Ken Anderson has my favorite reaction

For a last minute change, yeah it was well executed

Wasn’t Joe and Magnus apart of MEM by this point?

Or did that come later?

 

[Cwalker]

And also…

Crimson

Ken Anderson has my favorite reaction

He was just as bamboozled as all the viewers were

 

[Cwalker]

He was definitely thinking…

“I’m gonna have to job to this mfer, aren’t I?

That was the 2013 run... this was the planned roster for 2011

Couldn’t remember but that checks out cause 2013 sounds about the time that I was pulling for Magnus to be World Champion.

He did eventually become it... as a lame corporate champion due to being the biggest star willing to take a pay cut
