Listened to the first 30-40 minutes so far, then had to exit my car. Loved the shout out for Curry Man and Shark Boy. Will continue this later, good stuff.

Well, there's still stuff I'm not "on board with" as far as TNA is concerned but it isn't "lolTNA" like I originally thought. Also, Sammy and I are polar opposites on JBL.

I know you disagreed with us on Hogan's role on TV. You seemed to approve of most other things in TNA, though.

TNA is like the AFL if the AFL were actually more entertaining than the NFL.
It would still only be the AFL and nowhere near the level of the NFL. You just can't compete. No matter how hard you try. They just aren't at the same level and that's that. |

TNA really does try harder and put forth a better product creatively than WWE. WWE has the mainstream attention on lock though and the more talented roster but as they've proven over recent years, they don't need to try.

Orton is serviceable at best in the ring, his promos are boring and all sound the same, his middle-rope DDT looks more and more contrived every time he does it, and he looks like a shaved orange monkey.

Orton is quite possibly the best in-ring psychologist in wrestling today. The man can be jobbed left and right and be involved in boring storylines and still get the crowd going during his matches (Post-WrestleMania crowd excluded but... I mean... come on.)
He's not a master of the mic by any means but he's fucking stellar at everything else. He's very close to a prototypical sports entertainment star. Barrett is still unproven. He definitely wins on the "able to lay off the drugs" aspect though. |

You'd still be an hour short. This is quite the investment.

Well damn. They need to shorten the show to 30 mins tops. But I suppose it gives me something to do while I'm playing Atari.

If you're an Orton fan, you better strap yourself in for a bumpy ride, if we have the same line-up for each episode. Most of us can't stand him.

I'm really not seeing it, man. His moveset is unremarkable with the exception of the fact that a lot of it looks sloppy and weak. And his 'psychology' seems to be "let the other guy wrestle most of the match, then pop up and do a quick 5 moves of doom, sell a little bit more, then do a suprise RKO" in virtually every match. And his voice is slow, robotic, and awkward on the mic. Barrett actually looks like he's doing damage out there, and is a much better talker. And he also doesn't keep getting busted for drugs. |

I also fail to see this magnetic pyschology that Orton supposedly has. I am unable to fathom why the audience still give him reactions, most of the time.

it baffles me that people don't see this, the guy is so good it's ridiculous. "The prototypical sports entertainment star" as #1-wwf-fan puts it is pretty much the perfect way to describe him.

It's weird that the two opposing camps have literally zero common ground on this guy.
It's like we're in the Discussion Forum. |
