TNA wrestling will make its start on the SPIKE network starting the first sat in oct at 11pm. should be interesting to see how they will compete with the monster known as WWE. recently Raven dropped the belt back to Jeff Jarret to have him the heavy weight champion when the show first appears on Spike.

I keep seeing the Adverts for this on spike, I looks a little more hard core than the pro wrestling I've been used to seeing ? I dunno maybe its just me

I look at is as a poor attempt to be like ECW. Vince had trouble trying to mesh those guys into the WWE and just wasted the talent, for the most part. I still don't know if I like the 6sided ring, seems cheesy.
Most of the talent there is people who had Issues with the WWE. Scott Hall if he is still there is a known Alcoholic who can't control it. Sean Waltman has some serious problems. There is some good talent there, but unless they found a way to get Paul Heyman or Eric Bishoff to come run it, it will never come up to par with WWE.
I mean come on Dusty Rhodes even left there to go back to the WWE to be behind the scenes. LOL. I would love to see a match of the guys behind the scenes at WWE against some of the guys from TNA. Dean Malenko, Sgt. Slaughter, Arn Anderson, Terry Taylor just to name a few. If they really wanted to take a shot at the WWE they should get Ultimate Warrior under contract, but I think they realize whats being said in the DVD might be more Truth than hard feelings.

TNA is what it is. they finally got a tv contract. lets see how they use it. at least spike didnt place it right up against wwe right away.
watched the first episode and it was pretty good. nash came out without scott hall so i think he is done. sean waltman is now done. later has never done anything for me. but they did land the dudley boys now know as team 3-d. they made a appearance at the end of the show. come on they got aj styles who is awesome in the ring.
but come on yes it is different. and yes the 6-sided ring is weird. but since it is different it is a nice alternative to wwe. so if u will be watching both, like me, at least u wont be watchin a carbon copy.
so until the ultimate warrior realizes that the warrior was a character he played and makes a real comback.........ummmmmm...........give me wrestling.....any wrestling and i am happy

hope u guys r watchin this stuff. its a great show to watch and is different them wwe. know i found out the nash is hurt.
also read that hogan thought about signin with them a while ago and decided with wwe as did mick foley. he was actually goin to then decided to make his return to the ring with wwe. at tabbo tuesday will make his return to the ring.
still all in all i like what they are doin. their rating is up to a .9 which isnt bad for a late sat. night. but they need a weekday prime time slot. they should put them on tuesday or wed nights at 8 or 9. wwe dont have or ever had a show on those nights. but all in all is pretty good
boo-ah

holy crap. at the last pay per view tna had. jarrett was post to defend his heavy weight belt against nash. well since he was hurt that had jarrett go up against Rhyno. and guess who won. gore! gore ! gore!. Rhyno is now the tna champion. this is a guy that wwe couldnt find any use for and he went no where in their organization and since signing with tna. hes a top dog and their champ. good for him. always liked him.
also at the pay per veiw. the dudleys/ aka Team 3-D returned. they had to change their names because vincs wouldnt let them use it. copyright law. seems like a petty thing for him to do. not surprising though. we all by now know how he is.
boo-ah

lots of interesting rumors floating around.
the big one is that they expect Brett hart to show up in some appearances on tna. he has said he likes what they are doin and is friends with some of the guys in charge. hmmmmmm. wwe or tna.....within they year brett will be back on tv. either with one promotion or the other.
shannon moore will soon be with tna and is expected to be a heel in the x division.
test might be makin at least a one time appearance with tna...maybe at the genesis pay per view
benoits contract is up soon so there is rumblins that he might leave as did jericho and christian who didnt resign and is expected to go to tna
the rumor floating around was that nash had a heart attack. as of now they are sayin that isnt true.
boo-ah

Stings first appearance on tv since 2001 sat night put Impact over the 1 oint barrier for the first time in thier late night time slot. also this week it has been announced that Spike TV will be moving TNA Impact to a prime time slot. Thursday is being discussed but not set. if i was them i would put it on tuesday or wed. night. nothing really good on those nights except Lost on wed
