What is with TNA's MMA fetish? FFS SIGN INDEPENDENT WRESTLERS. It's like TNA and WWE have reversed lately. WWE is signing everyone they can who's performing well on the indy circuit. Sort it out, TNA.

I havent a clue who Tito Ortiz is but its certainly caused alot of upset with the wrestling fans as this guy isnt even a wrestler hes a fighter from UFC and I can guess Dixie has fired all those talented wrestlers just to pay this guy his wages WTF is Dixie doing? shes clearly copying WWE by sgining a UFC fighter as obviously WWE have my man Brock in the company. Dixie is really fucking up her company


:facepalm: Yeah cause anyone who is a MMA fighter cant be signed anywhere else because thats copying WWE. Stfu. Brock was in WWE before he went to UFC and these guys im not even sure were in UFC these are bellator guys.

Ortiz becoming a major rebel and fighting all of the factions would be funny, and it'd be boss if he would get Joey Ryan, Matt Morgan and Rampage to join him. They would be all "we're sick of the crap, just wrestle" and Dixie would fund them.

The ending and Tito's reveal was just awkward. It gave me no sense of what his purpose and storyline will be. Other than the predictable feud he'll have with Rampage, all that potential was wasted. They had a great angle with the videos but after all that build it just fell completely flat. At the very least they could have had the man cut a promo...

I agree they had huge potential to make this storyline into something worth while, entertaining and it could have done wonders for the company. I completely understand why everyone's upset because they want the company to succeed and bringing individuals like Tito Ortiz won't do anything long term, whereas you had someone like Matt Morgan that could have easily been the TNA WHC.

More I think about this, the more I hate it.

People are already speculating Tito vs Rampage in an MMA match at BFG. Any way that happens?
There isn't a single person on this planet who wants to see a worked MMA match. If they want to do a legit one, then it's two washed-up guys and it'll make TNA look bad + we'll all believe it's a work anyway and therefore not want to see it.

If they don't do that, what's Tito going to do? Are they just going to use the hardcore Impact audience to try to get Bellator cheap plugs? Because if we cared about Bellator we'd already be watching it. God knows Mike Tenay's told us enough about it. So they wasted yet another viral campaign, something that most TNA fans surely consider a joke by now anyway...

I just hope that Tito and Rampage do not feud and the two engage in actual wrestling matches, and I can already see the Park-Tito-Rampage interactions. Tito and Rampage could undergo a segment where they train in OVW and Park would just be like "no, you do that" and show them and it'd be hilarious.

Please no worked MMA fights. If it didn't work out well in Japan (where wrestling is seen as a sport) it won't work on US audiences.
