TNA Slammiversary XII PPV Discussion

[CFCrusader]

If the Menagerie vs Von Erichs happens, I will be so tempted to quit watching the PPV right there (because I get it free on Challenge UK but whatever)... meanwhile, The Bro-Mans vs The Von Erichs looks like a very solid match as long as the latter team are good. The Bro-Mans can be the serious champions, challenging crybabies, crazy goofs... they just work. Please, TNA, get more teams like them and The Wolves in; good wrestlers, equally as good at their gimmicks.

Oh, and speaking of The Wolves... it sucks that they built up the whole friction between The Wolves and MVP, but we don't even see MVP trying to get the team to defend the titles? He should want for them to lose, so he can get someone he likes in as champion... instead they're unnecessarily competing for the X-Division title in what looks so much like it's meant to be a MITB rip off.

This is very true, I guess I just have a personal preference of building people slowly then when they do get a title shot it feels more deserved. How many singles matches has Lashley had in TNA since he returned? Maybe 6 or 7? I don't think a person deserves to main-event a company's second-biggest PPV based on that little ring time.

No doubt, I agree with you. I don't think he should be pinning the World Champ having so few matches (and out of nowhere with nothing coming out of it, really) at all. But since he has pinned the guy, from a kayfabe perspective it's alright.

Just on a personal note, this thread is the best wrestling discussion this place has had in a long, long time. It's great to be a part of this brotherhood. :

Final answer for the Hall of Fame? Gail Kim.

Also, does anyone think that after all these teases, will Dixie go through a table tonight since they're off Spike TV?

Not happening tonight, imo. In NYC on one of the tapings though? I think if Dixie is really ready to take that bump, it will be in Bully's town in NYC. Imagine people marking out for it.

This might be nothing or might be something (hey Dave M.), but TNA's Unfinished Business PPV special that airs in the UK this month is focused on Mick Foley's TNA years. Does it possibly mean Mick Foley is to be inducted into the TNA HoF tonight, I can't tell. Just throwing this out there and possibly myself under the bus if this happens.

:facepalm1:

 

[Snowman1]

I can buy Foley being the pick. He's not deserving at all, but there just aren't many options. It just shows that this HoF shouldn't exist...

Wait, what about Earl H.?

Are you sure they would do it in NYC? That would be great, but you know how Spike feels about man on woman violence. That's the only way to pay off this angle, if they don't let her get her comeuppance then Dixie shouldn't be involved in angles.

(Dixie shouldn't be in angles at all, but w/e)

I do and I hope so

 

[Aids Johnson]

Gonna miss the LD. Father's day/Surprise 60th (happy birthday Senhor!) took the life out of me. I'll be watching, but i'm bailing at the last minute again.

 

[Snowman1]

Thanks for the reminder champ, no LD for El Snowberino either, Wilby. May jump on Skype to laugh with Leo or somebody.

 

[Leo C]

I'll be here tonight if anyone's around.
