I really don't want to see an MMA stable on a wrestling show. I'm pretty sure that idea is bad both for wrestling fans who hate MMA and for MMA fans.

Team Angle (Pro Wrestling) vs Team Rampage (MMA): In a 6 man steal caged match. :

Hearing the ticket sales were abysmal prior to this past weekend (well duh, WTF is Wichita Falls anyway?), but when this #Aug1Warning thing heated up over the internet, tickets sales went up for a good number.

That's great for TNA, hope it's not a scub like Hardcore Holly.

Really, who is a free agent and is known by the general wrestling community is out there?

People like Adam Pearce are great in theory, but the general wrestling fan, if they remember him, are probably only going to remember him as the guy who came on Gutcheck and didn't get hired. I'm interested, but I know damn well I'm going to be disappointed after the big reveal. I'm hoping for Teflon Taz because at least it'll be funny to me.

It's no secret that many people will be disappointed, so that's why you shouldn't really get your hopes high.

We'll find out tonight.

Hopefully Joseph Park gets boomsticked and sent into the abyss by Bradley.

I hope they stop using the Joesph Park gimmick, too.

Joseph Park was great, but it has gotten really stale in the last couple of months. They went nowhere with the character for months.

After last week's segment with EY though, seems like things will move forward soon, thank fuck. Hopefully this whole Park Brothers thing ends @ BFG once and for all.

I mean, Abyss is a great gimmick and character. Abyss and Kane do have similarities, and by that they should have looked at the mistake WWE made with Kane by taking off his mask. I would have much preferred if TNA didn't go down the route of creating the Joesph Park gimmick in the first place.

Lets face it, Abyss character has gotten stale and boring, whether babyface or heel IMO. Simply outdated. Joseph Park the babyface, too. So what is there to try to with it? TRY and turn Joseph Park heel ASAP. Try and see if anything will come out of it. Personally, I think it has potential.

It did get stale, but they could've had a fake Abyss feud or something as such. I wouldn't mind a heel Joseph Park and see if it goes anywhere, if not, they can go back to the drawing board and try different things.
