Cain LynchTNA "They" are revealed.
October 20th 2010 12:11
The biggest PPV of the year for TNA and we finally got to see who they are, some were expecting "They" to be EV 2.O well TNA revealed them as Eric Bischoff, Hulk Hogan, and Jeff Jarrett, and new TNA World Champion Jeff Hardy. For pretty much the first time in his career, Jeff Hardy has become a heel, and this new direction for TNA does look like an appealing one.
The imPACT before the PPV Dixie Carter signed what was a contract that she thought was going to say goodbye to Abyss from TNA, well that backfired on her and now "They" run the show. The PPV did have some lackluster matches, but the ending was what really captured it,
TNA has started to slowly climb out from the craptitude and has started to show a lot of promise, with Mickie James now in the company, possibly Matt Hardy joining in the new year, and maybe even The Hurricane as well, who knows where TNA can go from here.
Now people were complaining about the way the imPACT went after the PPV, well talking segments are usually annoying, but TNA was setting up the takeover, you have to admit, the matches now days are just a backdrop to the show, the real action is the segments, the videos, the storylines, and the matches are the final part of the show.
The spectacle of wrestling is now how the storylines go, and how they are written, and booked and matches seem to complete that puzzle. So cut TNA some slack if for one night the wrestling took a back seat, TNA booked that imPACT exactly how I would have done it.
I mean, TNA is now under the management (in the story) of Eric, Hulk and Jeff, with Abyss and Hardy the body guards if you will. Now they also had to explain why they did what they did, how they did it, and then they had the reaction of the talent, and the former president. Who I might add is now working the fans via twitter.
Now that's some sense, use social networks to your advantage make the storyline as real as you can make it. And TNA has made it as real as possible, by taking shots at how WCW ended, Jeff and Angle also brought up real life issues, and it explained why Jeff did what he did.
And that imPACT was the biggest one of the year, because there was so much going on from the PPV, so much to discuss, and then when Jarrett beat the snot out of Angle and almost "ended his career" even Taz was brought into that angle. Now you have made Angle one part of the team that will try and save TNA from "Them"
Fortune appear to be what will turn into 2k10s version of nWo, which will battle TNA at some stage in possibly a war games type match where Dixie's team will try and bring TNA back to her and "Save it" from the guys that "killed" WCW.
The futures of Sting and Nash seem to be uncertain at the moment as well, while Sting is taking some time to consider his future in the company, Nash has been posting messages alluding to his possible exit from TNA and possibly wrestling as well. Unless, both come back in a few weeks to "Save" TNA from "Them" and such.
TNA has also signed Katie Lea, it will be interesting if they eventually sign her "brother" Paul, and maybe change things up there. WWE was going to try and incest angle with them, but that managed to fade, and both seem to end up on ECW before fading into the future endeavors club.
I have not looked so forward to another imPACT in such a long time, I know there are still TNA haters out there, but unless you are willing to give it a go, you do not know what you are missing. I used to be pro WWE, loved watching nothing but the 'E but I have started to wane away from that.
It's not the PG-13 rating, or anything, it's been slowly losing it's appeal for a very long time, Nexus was interesting to begin with but that's now turned into a boring crap hole. Daniel Bryan was the only thing I was interested in, they fired him, brought him back, but it's really not the same.
Seeing Bret Hart in the ring and not doing anything but pinching and putting on the sharpshooter has sealed it for me that the WWE is starting to stink up the joint. We know Bret cannot wrestle, why bother booking him in matches as all he can do is throw weak punches and limber around the ring?
Tyler Reks on Team Smackdown? 'Nuff said.
Goldust offering to marry Aksana to keep her in the country? Dud.
Goldust sending love letters to the Million Dollar belt? Puhlease.
Nxt with the Divas? Well that was great idea, until stupid challenges made it more eye candy crap, with no real respect to the ability of these women. You have talented women, and then you have some that cannot wrestle for shit, or cut a promo for shit, and then you get someone Jamie who looked promising you fire her.
I love wrestling, not one company, but I have lost a lot of interest in the WWE, slowly becoming rubbish.
