Most people are attracted to the WWE because of the shock-factor storylines. RoH doesn't give you that. Your best alternative to WWE if you're a WWE fan is definitely TNA, in my opinion.

It gives you it more as you don't have Dirt sheets covering every step, not ROH but take Super Dragons return to PWG I knew nothing of that until I saw it. Steen hacking ROHs website was something I had no clue was happening till it did either.

:hmm: Still think a good amount of people might like some indie stuff if they gave them a chance.

They will once you get used to the culture shift, the best thing to do if you know someone who is trying to get used to it is edge them into the guys they know such as Punk and link it off from that.

Besides the year or so period of me banning TNA from my visions after how badly they pissed me off with the Jeff Hardy/Victory Road incident, I've given TNA plenty of chances when WWE turns me down. Half the time it goes well and I continued watching it until WWE got their act together and TNA had nothing I was particularly invested in watching. The other half of the time, like the last time I gave it a try, I had to suffer through the terrible Claire Lynch angle (I did not last long).

That said, what about now where if you recall any of my posts in the WWE section it's clear to tell I'm not happy with their current product? Truth be told, wrestling just isn't that high on my interests anymore. I'm no longer at the point where if WWE isn't satisfying my wrestling needs, I'll just check TNA out to get my fix, or even watch old matches that happened while I wasn't watching to get my fix. I'm at the point where I don't need a fix, nor care if I get one and would rather focus my free time on video games or anime. I hate saying this considering how obsessed I was with WWE at one point, but that's where I am. If it wasn't for the fact that I was on wrestling forums, I probably wouldn't keep up with it at all, let alone watch the rare segment on Raw every few weeks.

Cause they automatically assume it sucks, which is stupid cause they never watched the product...
Or they're in it for the entertainment rather than wrestling.

I disagree. I know TNA is good, I've seen TNA a couple times, but am I going to watch it on the regular? No. I'm already accustomed to WWE. If i go to TNA I'll be a noob again.
