Impact thread for January 23, 2025 - **LIVE** in San Antonio! Joe Hendry is World Champ, Rascalz vie for NXT Tag Titles, six-Knockout tag, more

I love how many of the NXT superstars are actually taking pictures in front of the TNA banner.

It shouldn't be as surprising as it is. A lot of these people literally grew up with TNA. Cora is 24, Nathan Frazer is 26, Axiom is 27. TNA is 22 years old.

 

[O-Blaze]

Yeah I’m sure alot of them were probably TNA fans

This is what I was asking at Genesis is how many NXT superstars did grow up as fans of TNA but a few people said probably not that many because a lot of them are coming in from the college program but definitely girls like Cora.

TNA booking just for blaze next week so his ass better be here!

for some personal reasons I’m excited about this one

 

[Ricky Smarks]

PCO flaming out is already refreshing things to such a great degree. Callihan can finally sink his teeth into something legitimately interesting now that he doesn’t have the albatross of PCO around his neck.

And a renewed rivalry with Mance and throw Steph in to book. This is so much better than PCO taking on Mance.

Is that an instagram you just made

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Is that an instagram you just made

Yeah. Just easier to upload screenshots this way.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I tried to get the wrestling smarks Instagram account back, but Instagram won’t get back to you about things like this and I can’t seem to find whoever created the account. I think it was a user called Legion, but I can’t get a hold of them.

 

[O-Blaze]

Yeah. Just easier to upload screenshots this way.

Well I gave it a follow!

 

[Ricky Smarks]

My man David P still showing TNA his support.

He’s right. That was a great pivot.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I also hope that’s the plan moving forward. One live show a month after the PLE/PPV that month.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

If Shawn Michaels has any balls, he books this match at the next NXT PLE or TNA PLE.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

I know Steph is feuding with Sami right now and she’s a heel, but let’s get first class in on this because this shit is hilarious.

Ready or not I'm going in
