I 'mark' for whatever company is putting out entertaining feuds and storylines and anyone saying that is TNA right now is lying to themselves.

:tough:

There are no storylines outside of the faction war nobody cares about.

How much is the BFGS hurting the buzz for this company?

I'm actually excited about the BFG Series because I want to know who'll be facing Sabin/Bully at Bound For Glory. In fact I think that the series is what is making Impact amazing this last weeks. I actually cracked up when Chavo said "Hernandez, you're going to win the BFG series and I'm going to win the X-Division title, then next year it'll be you against me" or something like that. It was funny because Hernandez has almost no chance to win the series and Chavo wouldn't be a good X-Div champion.

I'll be watching tonight. Not particularly pumped for anything but it's not like I have much else to do.

I don't see how the BFGS is hurting the buzz, if anything it is the only buzzworthy thing happening atm. It can provide tons of great matches that have some meaning behind them.

But does it really feel like big names are partaking in it? Seems to me as an observer that most big names are connected to the stable war. Not to undersell Aries and Roode but they aren't as high on the pecking order as they used to.

Joe, Hardy, Aries, Roode, Magnus, Bad Influence... tons of big names and amazing wrestlers.

Nah, it's just that this Aces and Eights crap has dragged out too long. I'm never in the mood to watch it, but I'll keep up with the results.

All well and good. But focus seemingly isn't on the series sadly. From what I have seen all the focus is on Bully vs Hulk vs Mafia and the BFG series is just tacked on. Last year we had rivalries within the BFG series going on, people competing between each other about points, Hardy's redemption, Storm chasing points to get back at Roode (which was kind of ejector seated at Destination X but who cares?). Just from observing a lot less is at stake within the BFG series itself when it comes to story. And with bully losing the belt there isn't even the entire idea of the winner saving TNA to drive it on either.

To take a bit from Heyman-logic. You can have as many big names as you want but if you don't create a reason to care for what they are doing no one will care about them at all.

I think if you watched the shows you would probably realize there is still a good deal of build and airtime given to the BFGS in all honesty.
