What do you want from TNA?

[phantomgerald]

I want the TNA of 2005 back. The one where X division is getting air time, no ex-wcw or wwe wrestlers like Black Reign. Great matches at the PPV that ends cleanly. The only downer is we got too much of Jeff Jarrett back then. Now there's too little of him. Get his ass on screen and stop controlling things backstage.

No more parodies of WWE. Don't even refer to them, pretend they don't exist. Give actual wrestlers a push. Homicide, Hernandez, Styles, Daniels should all be pushed. Not to mention the two ex-members of AMW. Without Angle, Cage and the likes, they would have been maineventing at their peak, but now they'll probably never hold the championship gold.

Wait...what? You're saying either make threads praising TNA, or make threads bashing them?

"Praise" and "bash" being taken to the most basic concepts of either you like it or you dont, yes. There is no middle ground. You either like it, or you dont like it.

People shouldn't stop watching something they don't like, they should continue to watch it for bashing purposes? If I hear a movie sucks, I'm not going to go buy tickets just so I can bash it along with the others, it doesn't make any sense lol.

Thats a faulty analogy. A movie and anything on TV are two completely different animals, mostly because people, at one time or another have watched something they didnt particularly want to watch just because they were bored or because they saw something good in all of the rest of the bullshit.

I used to watch UFC Fight Night, but now I find it pretty boring and I choose not to watch it. Instead, should I continue to watch it, and bash it because I find it boring? Should I make a bunch of threads entitled "UFC sucks!" where I express my hatred towards them ? :_cling_:

If you are bored enough, or just want something in that genre on in the background, yeah, why not? I do it all the time. I really dont like the news, it's very depressing for the most part, but I keep it on in the background because its good to stay current on whats happening and its usually just something to have on and im half paying attention.

ROFLMFAOWOFF :laugh:

I wouldnt mind if Awesome Kong showed those big brown milk jugs more often tbfh

 

[The Outkast Kid]

Complementary refills from her choclately rain jugs?

Is it me or is C4 watching a completely different knockouts vision to us? A lot of them can quite clearly wrestle just as well as Gail Kim.

Okay for TNA to become more appealing to me, they need more serious segments, less "comedic" ones. I want them to have some proper realistic PERSONAL original feuds. The booker T/Roode one isn't bad. But it's gotta be better, it's gotta be on the edge of my seat wow! Type style. For example Austin/McMahon. Or DDP Stalking Takers wife. But with a new idea, obviously...

I want FRESH. At the moment TNA is mimicking WWE a lot, I don't want that that's why I turned over to TNA.

Also: Push there original talent more. (With good gimmicks)

 

[the dark knight]

just want em to put up shows that are actually worth watching.

and btw, having a better women's division really depends on your taste.

trish > WWE's current women's division and TNA's entire roster combined

I feel TNA's problems stem from just 3 people Jarrett, Russo & Mantel ever since these 3 have taken over the booking of the company there has been a decline in the TNA product.
There are swerves & turns every week (See Russo's WCW Booking) the talent is unhappy at not beeing told what's happening plus as mentioned in this thread there trying to copy a lot of WWE's ideas and adding more entertainment and back stage segments when they should be concentrating on there wrestling product and in ring action.
TNA has a lot of potential and I seem to recall TNA's TV & PPV product a lot better whan they were working with a 5 man booking team when a certain Mike Tenay and Scott D'Amore had a say on things.

I Feel that TNA needs more action and less comedy. Having more comedy then action in a wrestling show is disrespectful to wrestling in general.

Bang on.

They need to urgently get Raven on the booking team, he has a great mind for wrestling. And just... fire Russo.

What in God's name is with all these comedy segments? None of them are ever funny and are becoming tiring. I used to LOVE TNA back in 2004 (I remember it back in Nashville where it was basically non-stop wrestling for two hours) and 2005 because it lived up to its name 'Total Nonstop ACTION'. The matches were fantastic and we actually saw the X-Division for more than five minutes.

I want to see an alternative to WWE's product not a weaker copy-cat production with all the backstage stuff. WWE absolutely owns them in that sense. I just want them to strip it of stupid angles, stupid comedy segments and stupid gimmicks, give us fast-paced, action-packed wrestling.

They have so much talent in that dressing room, they can't keep letting it go to waste.

i myslef think that mantel is more of a problem then russo. mantel is in favour of keeping the youth in tna down, and pushing the ex wwe talent more then russo according to numerous reports. i ant both gone but i feel russo is a scapegoat
