[Crippler]

I watched the go-home show and the the PPV, so why not? i'll watch tonight. Wonder how long till Rampage feuds with Angle in a MMA match

 

[Cwalker]

Wait...was Rampage the big signing that Dixie was bragging about or is someone else joining TNA? Either way, I'll be watching. Interested to see where they go with the World Championship and what happens to AJ after losing to Angle

 

[We Are Legion]

Pretty sure this is who Dixie was talking about.

 

[Tapout]

Yeah! BFG Series starts. TNA usually never disappointing around this time. Been getting back into TNA, and right now looks like a great time to do it. Aces and Eights though needs to start dying down. No question.

 

[Cwalker]

Aces & Eights will probably run until Bound for Glory. It's been a year already, and we don't see another NWO-like over run of a stable.

 

[Cwalker]

Hogan can barely walk to the ring. If anyone needs to be put out to pasture, it's him

 

[Tapout]

AJ needs to win BFG series. I'm digging his lone wolf gimmick

 

[Troy]

I still can't figure out why AJ lost his return match at Slammiversary. I get that Angle was inducted but it is a bit of a waste for him to return and lose right away. Chavo and Hernandez in BFG series hopefully means they will split.

AJ's gimmick is just a rehash of the Sting/NWO angle from 96-97. But I agree that AJ makes the most sense. A dark horse though is Matt Morgan. I think he's going to be featured heavily over the next few months

 

[Troy]

Could you really consider Chavo and Hernandez as a long term tag team? Haven't even been together for a year.

I hope that it is finally Morgan's chance at a proper run at the title. Still surprised that he hasn't been given a title run before, especially when he was doing his work for Gladiators as well.

By today's tag team standard I would. With the state of tag team wrestling the way it is in both companies, 8 months or however long they've been together is a long time

Bit sad that tag team wrestling has dropped so far that a team together for less than a year can be considered a long term team.

Hernandez is through to the BFG Series but I can't see him doing anything. He doesn't work that well as a singles wrestler, much better as part of a tag team.

 

[Cwalker]

Hernandez winning was the right move. Don't see him winning the series though. I think his time to be a maineventer was right after the LAX split

 

[Tapout]

Hernandez is a nice addition, won't win, but he's a steady hand to have in it.
