TNA Turning Point Thoughts

This PPV really was better than any of the shit that WWE has crapped out this year. I found myself actually excited and glued to the TV and not willing to get up for bathroom breaks or snacks for fear of missing something.

1.Six sides of steel and the X-Title match were both matches of the year and leagues above anything WWE can even begin to put together right now.

2. The big 6 man all star tag match was as expected Hall and Nash are old and Savage is really old. But I think everyone realized that going in and weren't expecting a killer match. The scary thing coming out of this is that they made such a big deal out of Savage pinning Jarrett and they mentioned maybe a title shot. PLEASE NOOOO!!!!

3. JV needs to lay off the WWE skits. For one no one probably minded it all that much. They were equally as lame as some of the skits WWE has done this year. Or need I mention the Snitsky/Heidenreich growling thing? It was harmless fun. The tape was actually cool in proving how petty WWE is now. They were threatening to sue over that tape and it really was nothing important. I think it was Eddy on the tape and not Rey by the way.
I loved Tenay's comment. "It's not like we drove a tank up to WWE headquarters."
WWe are such hypocrits.

4.I'm also sick of hearing JV say TNA comes off as bush league. Shuttup already!!! They don't have millions of dollars to spend thay are doing their best.

5. In closing TNA just put out a better product than WWE last night. If you are dogging them for their production and presentation you are not a wrestling fan you are a theatre fan. This is wrestling that is what we were treated to so before any of you pass judgement before seeing the show, maybe you should actually watch the show.

I don't criticize TNA for coming off "bush league" because they don't have a large budget to work with to produce their TV events (even though they've been dumping tons of money into their tapings). I call them bush league when they book indy-like angles and do things in an attempt to get heat off another wrestling company. I didn't like it when WWE would do it, and I don't like it when TNA does it. Bush league is what it is.

Hey Steveo, are you getting paid by TNA or did Vince McMahon do something to you lol. As far as the TNA goes, I wish TSN picks up their show in the future. I would like to make my own judgement about their show. Plus I have never seen guys like Monty, Petey in action. And I also would have liked to see Macho, Hardy, the Outsiders and DDP back in action, even tho they are probably horrible right now (Except for Jeff Hardy I guess).

By the way, if you've ever seen the movie "Hook", which was the Peter Pan flick with Dustin Hoffman playing Captain Hook... it's discovered in the movie that Hook is an old bald man wearing a wig. At the TNA PPV, Savage looked like the Hook character after they took off the wig.

I have seen somewhere (forgot which site), that Savage wasnt taking his shirt off backstage, cause hes sick and thats why hes skinny. And maybe thats why he backed out against Hogan.

I ain't gettin paid by no one. I just want everyone around here to know that there is an alternative, and entertaining alternative that is worth the money you spend on the PPVs. All I eve see around here is WWE this, WWE that. I'm tired of it. There are other wrestling rpomotions and they sometimes are better than what Vince can give us. Competiton is good and it will make both products better. And yes, Savage looked like my grandpa last night and i have bigger arms than him right now. And if they give him a title shot it will be a huge joke. But seriously if you saw the show last night you witnessed two of the greatest matches to take place this year. I just really want for TNA to succeed because i miss having an alternative and i think they have what it takes.

One more thing, If vince sues over the footage they showed it will be the most ridiculous thing to happen in wrestling. He will bankrupt them and put them out of business. All they did was talk to Rey or whoever for a bit and eat a salad. They blurred everything out. Vince if you have a soul and a brain you will leave it be.

Vince wouldn't win any lawsuit anyways since, like JV said, they technically didn't do anything wrong. You said it yourself, they blurred everything out.

You know what, if TNA was smart, they would save all the money they are paying Nash, Hall, DDP and Savage and get a huge star like Brock or Austin or someone like that.

I wonder if they ever tried to get Austin. That'd be interesting
