Thank you TNA!

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

Thank you TNA for being so fucking awesome right now.

No, I'm not joking.

Anyone who has seen TNA over the past couple months, should agree with me that it's been improving SOOOO much!

First things first....Bound For Glory comes....Sting finally loses in a heavyweight championship match. AJ Styles retains, which, I think is so badass for the company.

If you check out the whole Bound for Glory PPV, it seemed to be pretty badass. I wish I had gotten it, but hey, I'm a college guy with a fucked up back, and I'm out of work....soooo....I can't be blowing 50 bucks on a PPV at this point.

Impact has been so fucking good the past month. Their matches have been out of this world. The X Division is fucking back. The Amazing Red is so insane. He's awesome. Some of the shit he pulls....honestly, it blows my mind sometimes to see him wrestle. Homicide has really impressed me lately with his wrestling skills. Daniels is so fucking good. Anyone who can watch a Daniels match, and not be super impressed, doesn't know what wrestling is. The guy can make anyone look awesome. Sabin and Shelley(not sure if thats how you spell his last name or not)....are so good as singles....but out of this world as a team. Their match against Lethal Consequences was awesome!

The tag team division, still, is so badass. Beer Money might be my all time favorite tag team. I fucking love them. Impact this week, had it's main event be The British Invasion vs. Beer Money in a cage match, for the titles....I didn't like the ending, but the actual match itself was sick.

Plus, they've got some great rising stars. Eric Young is the Legands Champion because he screwed over Kevin Nash. A heel screwed over a heel. I love it! Kurt Angle says Main Event Mafia, after one full year of running things, are done. Kinda acts like a face. Says he appreciates the talent in TNA.

They've got Hernandez who in my eyes, will be a future TNA Heavyweight Champion, and will be awesome as it. They've got Matt Morgan who is not the best at interviews, but the dudes an in ring freak. He's huge. He's fast. He's got massive amounts of intensity. Fun to watch.

And the womens division....oh man, I looooooove the womens division. Why? Because their women are awesome. I'm so glad Tara(Victoria) is there. She's awesome there. Their knock outs(not divas) all have gimmicks....so it's not watching the same women time and time again. It's fun, and it's easy to get involved with their storylines. I actually look forward to seeing Tara, ODB, Awesome Kong, and The Beautiful People....plus, they've got some oriental chick that has "anything goes" matches all the time...and shes SUPER HARDCORE. She hit a moonsault off the top ropes, outside the ring, and landed on a chick that was laying on a table....it was awesome.

AND....

AND....

ANDDDDDDDDD....

NIGEL MCGUINESS FUCKING DEBUTED!!!!

He interupts Kurts interview with JB and tells Kurt that he got into the wresting business because of Kurt Angle. He goes by a new name "Desmond Wolf" but Tazz made sure to let everyone know it was Nigel....anyways, Nigel then attacks Kurt in the back....pretty awesome....

at the end of the show, Kurt comes out and says "no ones going to make a name for themselves by attacking me like that....get your ass out here!"

Nigel doesn't show, so Kurt starts to head to the back....out of nowhere, BAM, Nigel attacks Kurt and beats his ass.

Nigel comes in, and immediately gets a fucking push against Kurt Angle....I love it!

Oh, and next months PPV main event....

TNA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
AJ Styles(c) vs. Samoa Joe vs. Christopher fucking Daniels

how sweet is that? These three guys are headlining the PPV....so badass....TNA right now, in my eyes, is at it's best. It's funny because they've got storylines and shit, but if you really watch the wrestling...not the storylines....TNA has WAY better wrestling than WWE. I noticed it A LOT last night and the week before on Impact....wrestling skill....TNA>WWE hands down.

[Anthony Jordan]

Wow, I might have to actually start recording Impact now.

[MTMT]

I'm glad they're pushing AJ Styles again... I remember when TNA first got a TV deal with Fox Sports, I was insanely impressed with him.

I barely have time for WWE at the moment; I mostly just read results online, and rarely watch it. Fuck, I barely have time for TV anymore... there are a few new shows that seem interesting (FlashForward and Community come to mind) that I just can't bring myself to start following, because I don't want another TV addiction. I guess you can add TNA to that list as well.

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

Like I said, wrestling wise, TNA blows WWE out of the water. Granted, there are some innnnnnncredible "wrestlers" in WWE as well. Punk, Rey, Edge, Jericho, Morrison, Kofi, HBK etc....but in TNA, it's so different. There are very few who aren't impressive in the ring. Most of them put on really awesome matches. When the match starts, you have no idea who's going to win....I like that. Tazz made a comment on Impact this past week which I thought was awesome....he didn't come right out and bash WWE, but he made a solid point. I think it was during the Amazing Red vs. Homicide match, but it might have been during the AJ and Daniels vs. Big Sexy and Joe match....but Tazz made the comment of "Look at these guys wrestle. It's something I haven't seen in a long time. I came to TNA because TNA lets it's guys actually wrestle. I haven't been able to see a lot of that in a very long time"....and it's true. You don't see a lot of really great "WRESTLING" matches in WWE. We get it when we see Jericho vs. Rey. We get it with certain guys in the WWE....but come on....when we have to watch Kane vs. Khali, or Finlay vs. Mike Knox....how much actual wrestling do we get? Not that much. 99% of matches on TNA are going to give you actual wrestling....and the people that aren't really good at wrestling, they tend to put in "anything goes, or hardcore" matches because then they can get your attention with gimmick matches. They're brilliant. Like I said, I just love the fact that there's a federation out there, with some awesome talent in it, who all focus on wrestling. It's great to see....and really exciting to see.

Matt my friend, Flashforward is fucking awesome. You'll have to check it out when the first season comes out or something. I don't know if Luke's watching this or not, but he should because there are a lot of the Lost people in it. There's a new show coming out soon called "V" or something like that....thats also got Lost peeps in it. Not sure how it's going to be, but Flashforward....AWESOME SHOW!

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

Oh, and guys, if you want to see one of the best matches in a long time....find the AJ Styles vs. Kurt Angle match from the TNA SUPER IMPACT show a couple weeks ago. You'll be glad you watched it. Incredible match. Definitely one I'll always remember. Classic!

[theegomjw]

FlashForward is sweet, of course im watching it.



and TNA is dong well right now. If they can let the PPVs and shows revolve around 'TNA talent', and not old WWE talent then thats great.

of course the bigger veteren names like Nash/Angle etc are great for getting interest, but they should be backing up the younger guys, not over taking them...TNA seems to be going about it OK right now.

[AWA Staff]

don't have much time to read over all the posts but, I'm gonna say what I did on Thursday night.....

Desmond/Nigel....his debut and attack did NOT impress me. Not at all

[SLAM II]

bill i disagree with you on the debute of nigel! i agree with timmy.

i thought it was nice.

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

I love the fact that he's jumping right into a feud with Angle. I think it could be awesome!

[AWA CEO: Mr. Timothy Draven]

I won't stop watching WWE, but I also don't care if I read the results instead of watch it....while TNA, I'm actually excited to watch it on Thursday....I don't remember the last time I was actually excited about watching wrestling....TNA has done that for me.
