Vodka Drunkenski Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I know but if they got a bigger venue, they might sell, won't know until they fully try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 Doesn't work that way. They're taking a huge risk already going on the road full-time, and wrestling is in a major slump right now as a whole. They need to establish themselves on the road here before they can risk trying to sell out arenas. The Lockdown PPV, for example, was held in the Alamodome in San Antonio, which holds like 18,000 seats. They blocked off like 70% of the arena and only sold to the floor and first level because there was NO WAY they'd fill it. I think you drastically overestimate the interest in pro-wrestling right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentyseven Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 LOL the Mark Henry segment was fucking gold. Phil, I know you hate WWE but you have to watch the segment on youtube. Henry is usually bland but this was pretty awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 I actually saw it. Flipped over between periods of the CHI/BOS game. Turn was cool. Still don't like Mark Henry, though. Never have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentyseven Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 In all honesty, professional wrestling hasn't been the same for at least 10 years. I thought it was pretty good when they had the crossover storylines (when WWE bought WCW) but it has gone down steadily over the past decade. Now there aren't many top tier wrestlers in WWE. They have some draws like Punk (who really is the best in the business at the moment), Jericho (who is only part time), Lesnar (see Jericho), Cena, Bryan and The Shield (Im partial to them and I think they actually have some skill). I actually have started watching TNA but honestly, both brands have been kind of boring for me right now. Sting's new stable has caught my interest though.

Phil Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 I really hope Nash returns. I'd love to see him come back to TNA. Spent seven years there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twentyseven Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Kinda getting into TNA, at least a little bit. Sting's stable has my interest. This might seem like knit picking but there is something about their backstage camera that bothers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-ERIK- Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Lesnar just delivered a violent f5 to Punk. I think WWE has gotten better lately Heyman is fantastic and having a Punk-Lesnar feud is going to be great imo Not to mention Daniel Bryan is getting the biggest pops I've heard in a while and that match him and Rollins had on RAW 2 weeks ago was the best in a while the whole double turn with Ziggs and Del Rio was good too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentyseven Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Ive really been trying to watch TNA and see what it is all about. Can someone explain the significance of the X-Division Champ? Is it TNA's version of Money in the Bank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 28, 2013 Author Share Posted June 28, 2013 Tonight's episode sucked, but the ending was amazing. Option C allows the X Division Champion at the time of Destination X (PPV) to trade in their title for a possible World Title shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 @TNADixie: Who'll be the 1st #XDivision star to hold this new Championship belt?

Phil Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 They aired the Destination X "PPV" on IMPACT last night. I'm really hoping this begins to dismantle the Aces & Eights story line. It's at it's end, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
