HOLY SHIT A DANIELS SMILEY! #MarkOutMoment

Isn't Aces and Eights car crashy enough, ridiculous enough, and conceived with so little of a plan, that it classifies as Russo-booking? And it isn't drawing shit.

Bad ratings mean the business decision of putting the belt on Hardy was a fail, but you can't just blame the ratings on that. But tbh, I haven't watched in 3 weeks outside of BFG and haven't really missed it, the storylines right now are laughably bad.

Aces and Eights did draw back in August - a 1.4 rating, highest rated segment of the year. Now, not so much.

It's still not a time to blame it on Hardy. Time will tell though.

Interesting that you haven't watched in 3 weeks but can still manage to draw conclusions on the storylines

The Aries turn was awesome. Bully's character and part of the Aces & eights angle is awesome, as is the Devon swerve. The Ryan/Snow angle was awesome, and now add in Morgan to this. Frankie Kazarian and Daniels get multiple segments and a match every week. Money. Roode/Storm. Man, laughably bad feud that one was.

I'm not surprised at all, honestly. Wrestling isn't getting anymore popular & it'll take a goddamn miracle to get some of the WWE sheep to watch another wrestling product. TNA has turned it's back on the internet fans who got them where they are & the ratings show it. RVD wasn't even on the Post BFG show as the new X Title holder... they might as well trash the division as it seems like they're running it into the ground anyways. Hardy is your champion even though his stupid ass was almost the nail in the coffin last year. They keep making bad signings... I mean who the fuck cares about Mr Pectacular or King Mo?

TNA has always had an identity crisis. Hopefully they find the product they are looking for soon & stick to it.

Edit: Just so you guys know, I love TNA... but they have no idea what they're doing.

Edit 2: Devon is a piece of trash & my Grandmother is more charismatic than Matt Morgan... son.

I second this statement. Kudos DZ.:obama:

I'm not sure on how serious Testify and Dolph's are with the Devon love, I presumed it was just a little joke around here, but I agree that Devon is boring as fuck and the swerve with him "leading" (or not leading?) was abysmal, in my opinion.

Devon holds pinfall victories over HHH and The Undertaker, it's about time TNA pushed this young stud. Devon > your favorite wrestler unless your favorite is D'Von Dudley then it's a tie.

Devon is not the leader of the Aces and Eights. They called him the Sergeant at arms of the gang multiple times during the show. A Sergeant at arms in a biker gang is the man leading your enforcers, the guy you go to when you want violence done. Not the guy who leads or makes decision.

Wonder how long it is until the aces and eights leader is revealed? How long has this been going on? :lol1:

Devon holds the IZ in the palm of his hand. You are probably just mad that Devon is more swole than your favorite wrestler.

First of all, your opinion about Devon is not relevant. 2nd, Devon is the God of Crowd. 3rd, he's not the leader, Stopspot explained it. 4th, Devon is the new face of TNA. Finally, 5th: oooh my brotha, TESTIFY!! :testify:
