All this and much more on Thursday's "iMPACT!", including more matches for the June 21 Slammiversary epic event!

[DarKCentaur]

Man, it wouldn't be Impact without a clusterfuck main event!

[DarKCentaur]

Also, what's with that Knockouts match? Isn't Angelina defending the title against Tara?

[kareru]

thats a fucking great show

[kareru]

i just wish tna was on for longer, or with less promos about wrestlers i have known that existed for 20 years

[DarKCentaur]

It doesn't really matter how long the show is when they book their entire roster into an hour's worth of programming. The rest of the show is littered with MEM promos and pointless JB segments.

[Steveviscious89]

I agree.....with the fact that there are a few too many promos for my taste, or at least promos that aren't really that good. I'm sure we could all do without the ODB/Deaner stuff, I mean that's just been terrible since day one. Don't get me wrong, I think ODB is great to have on the show, but man that whole Deaner angle is really bottom of the barrel.

[DarKCentaur]

I don't get any of the Deaner stuff either. They need to drop his character and repackage the poor guy, before too much damage is done.

[DarKCentaur]

WTF? Does Hebner have a golf ball in his mouth?

[DarKCentaur]

Man, this "Welcome Back Jarrett" segment is just like Rock, This Is Your Life.

[Krimzon7]

YOU're the only one here? Sucks dude. Hi I'm here. And Raven is cutting a nice promo.

[DarKCentaur]

That was a pretty sweet promo. And yes, that's nothing new for me :(

[DarKCentaur]

As cool as it is to see the Franchise, he shouldn't be wrestling anymore.

[Krimzon7]

HOLY SHIT IS THIS CHRIS BROWN WRESTLING???

[DarKCentaur]

As much as I like Daniels, his ring attire is an eyesore. It's way too bright

[DarKCentaur]

Amazing Red looks like a big 12-year old

[Triple Naitch]

Pretty sure this is the most self-explanatory thread ever.

[DarKCentaur]

Somehow I envision getting Franchised involving a Big Mac and fries

[The Gold Standard]

I didn't know there was a thread for TNA anymore. I thought only screech cared about TNA

[DarKCentaur]

It's kinda sad, because I feel like TNA has been trying lately.

[DarKCentaur]

Jethro Holiday must be pissed: he went from being a WWE Tag Champ to a TNA jobber.

[Batista03]

It's kinda sad, because I feel like TNA has been trying lately.

I liked TNA a year or 2 ago but now I just turn to it to see a few ppl. And there is not much on around that time anyway.

[DarKCentaur]

I really love Matt Morgan, he's really starting to come into his own. This promo on Sting is pretty sweet

[Batista03]

I agree.

[DarKCentaur]

On the other side of the coin, JB annoys me to no end.

[DarKCentaur]

Well of course the cage wall collapsed, it only covers a third of the ring. What a stupid match

[DarKCentaur]

Ok I'm still stuck on this dumb concept of a match. It looked like they were wrestling in front of a batting cage. Did Raven actually used to have these matches in TNA back in the day, or is this something new?

[DarKCentaur]

While that Joe promo was better than the crap he has been doing, it sure sounds like the Nation of Violence is starting to turn into TNA Frontline 2.0

[thedamndest]

So no Victoria? This will determine if I youtube things.

[DarKCentaur]

No, but Angelina Love and Daffney is an ultimate team of hot.

[kareru]

No, but Angelina Love and Daffney is an ultimate team of hot.

i like your thinking dude

[DarKCentaur]

BTW, Victoria sighting. Her and Kong had a staredown

[Testicle]

Ok I'm still stuck on this dumb concept of a match. It looked like they were wrestling in front of a batting cage. Did Raven actually used to have these matches in TNA back in the day, or is this something new?

Yeah, the clockwork orange house of fun matches, he had some good ones back in the day. One of which was againts shawn waltman, believe it or not.

[Testicle]

I also agree that the franchise should probably not be featured on national tv anymore, whats more is that he is going to have a ppv with daniels, I bet the crowd is goning to shit all over it.

As much as I love the old ECW guys, TNA has to stop bringing these guys in just to bring them in. Raven can still deliever promos, but what else. One of TNAs biggest problems is that they don't feature their own stars enough.

[DarKCentaur]

Ok now the whole Team 3D/Beer Money respect angle I thought was pure class and totally well done. So why the fuck would they turn Beer Money heel AGAIN against them?

[Volare]

I watched Velvet Sky, and Team 3D...then didn't care.

[KIRA]

cause Raven unlike shane douglas is a god no matter how old he gets

[DAMN iNATOR]

Besides the promos, one thing that is really irritating is listening to everyone's god awful themes in TNA. And then also, I'm getting sick of Tenay & West fighting on commentary like a couple of 2nd graders.

Case in point about the themes thing: Raven and Richards both used to have great ones in WWE. Now they both use a very slight variation on some kind of generic psycho music, which seems, oddly enough to be infused with a little "dramatic western movie" stuff in there...

= greatness compared to the trash they make them come out to week after week in TNA.

[KIRA]

stevens wwe theme is Kroniks old theme but its awesome.Ravens WWE and TNA theme both suck really bad at least his TNA theme has a hint of his WCW theme in it which was a knockoff of Nirvanas "Come as you Are" Which was his best in both his and my opinion.

[Steveviscious89]

True True....There are some lame themes in TNA, but how can you not say the same about WWE. I mean....I don't even like the themes they give to their top guys anymore..no hook at all. I actually like some of the themes in TNA because you can easily remember them after having not heard them many times.
