TNA Thread for 3/26/09 CROSS THE LINE

[DarKCentaur]

20 Men in a Cage? They couldn't scrape together any MORE guys?

[DarKCentaur]

Ok I don't get it... why would you WANT to be Team Captain? Do you get a title shot if your team wins or something?

[DarKCentaur]

Angle is 3 minutes late for the opening

[DarKCentaur]

Cornette is such a worthless excuse for authority.

[DarKCentaur]

I think for the moment, Impact is my favorite show, if only for the fact that I don't have to see a 12 Rounds promo every 5 minutes.

[DarKCentaur]

I'm so lonely

[screech]

I love how Cornette starts with "these rules are very simple" and continues with a confusing explanation of the rules.

[screech]

Don West doesn't match.

FAIL

[screech]

There's really no point to being team captain. No special privileges or anything.

[screech]

Why does it have to be in a cage? They can't just have a battle royal with everyone on the roster? They need to make it more of a clusterfuck?

[DarKCentaur]

TNA Logic: More is better!

[DarKCentaur]

And who does Kiyoshi think he is, Bats? He hasn't done anything to deserve two X-title shots in the past what, 3 weeks?

[screech]

They handed out Suicide shirts before this match to make it look like he has fans.

[screech]

Kiyoshi is a good wrestler though, so it's okay.

[James Steele]

:lol: @ Don West

"Come on Professor, we all know why he's called Big Sexy"

[screech]

God I hate Don West. He is fucking awful.

[DarKCentaur]

I guess Alex Shelley didn't have a rematch clause in his contract.

[DarKCentaur]

I love Don West when he remembers to be a heel.

[James Steele]

Kiyoshi looks like Red Rooster and Great Muta had a love child.

[James Steele]

Tenay is almost as annoying as that guy who did RoH on HDNet.

[screech]

What a shit finisher.

[James Steele]

:lol:

I can't believe TNA still has to do such overkill on the PPV hype pieces.

[DarKCentaur]

Haha, you certainly don't wanna be reminiscent of the Red Rooster.

[James Steele]

LOL

KURT SMASH POSTER OF JEFF JARRETT

[screech]

He really took it to that poster, didn't he?

[DarKCentaur]

What a shit finisher.

The Suicide Solution? That's setting a great example.

[James Steele]

I wonder if Kevin Nash will leave some of that Survivor:Amazon pussy for Scott Steiner. Scott did ask him nicely.

[Droford]

Is there anyway we can get Homicide vs Suicide in a match? Actually duh..he has the X division title shot..OBVIOUS!

And hope for a Sabu run in.

[screech]

The Suicide Solution? That's setting a great example.

THEY CROSS THE FUCKING LINE

[SuperSlim]

SUICIIIIIIIIIIIDE sucks

[James Steele]

AcipHex

...sounds like a Jeff Hardy band.

[DarKCentaur]

Is there anyway we can get Homicide vs Suicide in a match?

And hope for a Sabu run in.

Theoretically speaking, Sabu is 3 times the man they both are.

[screech]

Is there anyway we can get Homicide vs Suicide in a match?

And hope for a Sabu run in.

Vince Russo just wrote that down and it will happen at Lockdown.

INSIDE SIX SIDES OF STEEL

[James Steele]

I only turned iMPACT! on while flipping through and catching Angle and Cornette talking, but have they done anything with Foley/Sting yet?

[screech]

That was so pointless

[James Steele]

Jeff Jarrett with such conviction!

Double J is why TNA will never be taken seriously. He is a great wrestler, but he can't be a babyface and work the mic without any sense of corniness.

[screech]

Nothing with Foley/Sting yet

[DarKCentaur]

They're fighting at Lockdown after Foley hit Sting with a chair last week

[screech]

Lauren is so hot

[screech]

And Helms is a lucky bastard

[SuperSlim]

Velvet is the only person, the only reason to watch TNA

[James Steele]

The Beautiful People could get over in WWE. :lol: WTF they are doing some sorority shit? I retract my previous statement.

[DarKCentaur]

I don't understand Madison Rayne... she turned on Taylor Wilde so defiantly, just to become a weak-willed slave to the Beautiful People.

[James Steele]

Why has Family Guy been shitting on Seth Rogan lately? Is it because he is turning into the Rob Scheinder of stoner flicks?

[screech]

That Quiznos commercial is fucking creepy

[James Steele]

TNA should try to do a Chuck Norris/Dog The Bounty Hunter match at BFG 5. WWE is missing out on billions of dollars at WrestleMania by not doing it.

[James Steele]

That Quiznos commercial is fucking creepy

PUT IT IN ME SCOTT

[SuperSlim]

I hate rough cut

[screech]

I usually hate them, but that was a good Rough Cut

[DarKCentaur]

"They don't pay to see Brother Ray and Brother D'Von wrestle by themselves"

Somebody should have told WWE that years ago

[screech]

Wow the timing there was incredible.

[James Steele]

Wow! TNA has a fancy interview set, and Bubba has sideburns with a shaved head. That is symbolic of TNA in so many ways.

[screech]

Almost makes me wish I could afford tickets to that.

[Droford]

TAZ reference!

[screech]

This is lame.

[James Steele]

T-N-A! T-N-A! T-N-A! T-N-A!

[SuperSlim]

*yawn*

[DarKCentaur]

I think the build for that tag match is actually really good so far.

[screech]

FOLEY CROSSED THE FUCKING LINE

[rob11]

Almost makes me wish I could afford tickets to that.
Don't worry, nobody will pay those prices. I'm down there every day, and will let you know if they start giving them away. Maybe they will do that code thing again where the tickets become free.

[screech]

I think the build for that tag match is actually really good so far.

It has been for the most part, but that segment was really cheesy to me.

[James Steele]

TNA should try to get the sandwich market like WWE does. Instead of John Cena doing Subway commercials with Jared, TNA would have Scott Steiner doing Quiznos commercials with the creepy toaster oven.

[screech]

I love Sting promos

[screech]

TNA should try to get the sandwich market like WWE does. Instead of John Cena doing Subway commercials with Jared, TNA would have Scott Steiner doing Quiznos commercials with the creepy toaster oven.

:lol:

[James Steele]

In just 40 minutes, I have noticed that TNA alternated between good, bad, mediocre, and potentially awesome.

[screech]

Don't worry, nobody will pay those prices. I'm down there every day, and will let you know if they start giving them away. Maybe they will do that code thing again where the tickets become free.

Awesome. Thanks, man.

[screech]

In just 40 minutes, I have noticed that TNA alternated between good, bad, mediocre, and potentially awesome.

That's usually what happens. Though it ends up being potentially awesome and completely retarded.

[James Steele]

Why the hell does Mick Foley wear that country-western deathbiker vest? Only Dog can wear that kind of vest...unless Mick is going to bring him into TNA!!!

[screech]

SILLY STING

[James Steele]

ROFL "My Pi Sexy"

God bless Russo.

[Droford]

thats a bonus to having a 47 inch hd tv.

[screech]

I love Velvet Sky

[screech]

Does anyone actually subscribe to TNA Mobile?

[DarKCentaur]

Does anyone actually subscribe to TNA Mobile?

Morons.

[James Steele]

[screech]

48 minutes in, 7 minutes of wrestling.

[James Steele]

Wow, Livewire got more wresting in an hour than TNA does.

[Droford]

12 Rounds~!! lolhaha

[James Steele]

SON OF A BITCH

Did I just see a fucking 12 Rounds ad??!!?!

[screech]

12 ROUNDS

[DarKCentaur]

The only thing better is if TNA threw a boatload of money at Keifer Sutherland to face Chuck Norris

[DarKCentaur]

Where? I didn't see no 12 Rounds, thank Christ

[rob11]

Screech, they are having an autograph session at the Electric Factory. Admission just $65 hahaha.

[screech]

Yeah I saw that. Fuckin TNA. Nobody is going to pay that much.

[screech]

That belt seems meaningless on Sting

[DarKCentaur]

Don West: the Chris Jericho of TNA

[screech]

Don West: the Chris Jericho of TNA

:nono:

[DarKCentaur]

Well, not really. But he makes a similar point about Sting not wanting to give up the spotlight

[screech]

Amazing commentary by Foley

[screech]

Two of the best promo guys in the business in the ring right now.

[Droford]

Sting/foley..if only it were 1999 and not 2009.

[DarKCentaur]

I feel like Foley should, in theory, be much more serious and intense in this feud with Sting. But it comes off so awesome with him being goofy

[DarKCentaur]

HAHAHAHAHA let's not kid ourselves Mick.

[DarKCentaur]

I'm sure the mass media is talking about Lockdown, not Wrestlemania.

[screech]

FO-LEY FO-LEY FO-LEY

[Droford]

Foley needs to attack Sting's wife or something.

[DarKCentaur]

I hope Abyss is one of the captains. His team would consist of Lauren, Dr. Stevie, and 2 bags of tacks (with exactly 10,000 tacks in each)

[DarKCentaur]

Infact, in the weeks leading up to Lockdown, footage will be shown of Abyss pain-stakingly counting out the tacks to put in each bag

[screech]

Now that's some good buildup

[James Steele]

Fuck, another 12 Rounds ad.

[James Steele]

Followed by the creepy Quiznos ad.

[screech]

Great placement

[James Steele]

Blue fire means its hotter!

[Droford]

They are pretty much telegraphing MEM vs Team Jarrett which would probably be Jarrett/Styles/Joe/??

[DarKCentaur]

Probably somebody stupid like Eric Young. They usually sub him in when there's no other logical choice

[screech]

Kurt held every title in TNA at one time. How is AJ the first Grand Slam Champion? Could there not be a Grand Slam Champion before this fake belt was introduced?

[screech]

Dave Penzer is quite annoying.

[James Steele]

Alex Shelley with his gay ass music.

[Droford]

I like how TNA has a hole in the cage for the camera..never noticed that before.

[James Steele]

I wonder how long until Tenay and West wrestle.

[screech]

I wonder how long until Tenay and West wrestle.

It'll be the best match in TNA history.

[James Steele]

2 Black Guys + No Direction = Lethal Consequences

[James Steele]

What happened to DDP? I thought he came back to TNA not too long ago. I remember watching DDP being the big name going into the Jarrett Buzzsaw at Destination X back in the FSN days.

[DarKCentaur]

2 Black Guys + No Direction = Cryme Tyme

[DarKCentaur]

I don't remember DDP ever being in TNA

[screech]

On April 1, 2004, Diamond Dallas Page announced his return to the ring. After working for several independent promotions, he debuted with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling on November 12, feuding with Raven and Erik Watts. Page received an NWA World Heavyweight Championship title shot on March 13, 2005 at Destination X but was defeated by reigning champion Jeff Jarrett. Page left TNA shortly thereafter.

[James Steele]

He was there back when Dusty was the Commissioner of TNA in the back of his pickup truck.

[James Steele]

:lol: TNA wasn't too bad back in the FSN days, but they only had an hour to ruin.

[screech]

Why do we need replays of what JUST HAPPENED?

[DarKCentaur]

Well, I stand corrected then.

[screech]

Don West needs to shut the fuck up. That's what I'm thinking.

[James Steele]

WWE needs to use WAR GAMES. Imagine a War Games match with Orton/Jericho/Rhodes/DiBiase vs HHH/Batista/Punk/Kofi

[James Steele]

Sorry, I was reading up on DDP and remembered when he won War Games to be #1 contender.

[screech]

LOL War Games

[DarKCentaur]

That would be awesome. But that would require Vince to recognize an idea other than his own.

[screech]

It would be sweet

[screech]

How is this match two decades in the making?

[James Steele]

I wonder why TNA hasn't tried to bring in Shannon Moore again.

[James Steele]

How is this match two decades in the making?

Sting and Cactus Jack back in pre-Bischoff WCW. Mick wrote about how important those matches were to him (along with Vader damn near killing him) in his first 2 books.

[DarKCentaur]

The clock said 11, but Rhyno was #10?

[James Steele]

Sting and Foley had several matches in 1991 and 1992.

[Droford]

Sting and Cactus Jack back in pre-Bischoff WCW. Mick wrote about how important those matches were to him (along with Vader damn near killing him) in his first 2 books.

To the best of my memory they last wrestled back in 1992.

[screech]

WATCH OUT FOR THE CHAIR

[James Steele]

:lol:

Cactus Jack defeated Van Hammer at Clash of the Champions 18.

[screech]

Sting and Cactus Jack back in pre-Bischoff WCW. Mick wrote about how important those matches were to him (along with Vader damn near killing him) in his first 2 books.

Ah. That was before my time (watching wrestling) and I haven't read Foley's first books yet. Thanks.

[James Steele]

October 27, 1991 - Halloween Havoc: Sting's Team defeated Cactus Jack's Team in a Chamber of Horrors match. (Sting's Team: Sting, El Gigante, The Steiners | Cactus's Team: Cactus Jack, Abdullah the Butcher, Diamond Stud & Vader)

[Droford]

:lol:

Cactus Jack defeated Van Hammer at Clash of the Champions 18.

the awesome thing about Van Hammer is he ran a wrestling school near where I live for a while. I was tempted..but seriously..

[DarKCentaur]

I hope Nido wins. The return of Tiger Mask for Lockdown!!

[Droford]

Jarrett will obviously run in when most everyone is eliminated..ugh

[James Steele]

Surfer Sting = The Goods

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/sting/25.jpg

[DarKCentaur]

Is that Sting or Jim Carrey

[screech]

Kurt is wrecking days

[James Steele]

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/sting/22.jpg

:lol:

I am glad I didn't know about this until after I was already a fan because I might not be a Sting mark.

[Droford]

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/sting/22.jpg

:lol:

do a search for Sting and Robocop..lol

[James Steele]

Sadly, Sgt. Pepper Sting is still better than Lobster Sting (and I loved the Wolfpac):

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/sting/01.jpg

It wouldn't have been so bad, but his tights were red too:

http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/s/sting/28.jpg

[screech]

Still creepy

[screech]

The Quiznos commercial, that is

[DarKCentaur]

Shane Sewell is still around? Why

[screech]

Why are Bashir and Rhino feuding? What a ridiculous mismatch.

[screech]

Shane Sewell is still around? Why

I'm wondering that myself

[Droford]

Dumb question.
What happens if MEM guys are the last two in the ring?

[screech]

BRAND NEW CAGE?!?

[James Steele]

I wish Sting would go to WWE already. I want to see Sting vs Triple H before I die, and I have no clue why.

[screech]

Dumb question.
What happens if MEM guys are the last two in the ring?

There will be an even dumber answer

[Juan]

Booker T got fat

[James Steele]

Dumb question.
What happens if MEM guys are the last two in the ring?

TNA Management will CROSS THE LINE...and pretend the stipulation didn't exist.

[DarKCentaur]

Hah, Yujiro is fucked

[screech]

Nice of you to join us, Juan

[James Steele]

Daivari looks good for being raped by Samoa Joe last week.

[screech]

LOL at Steiner's reaction

[screech]

WHY THE FUCK IS PENZER COUNTING?

[James Steele]

DON'T FIRE ERIC!

[screech]

Nice rapeage of Abyss

[James Steele]

WHY THE FUCK IS PENZER COUNTING?

He did it during War Games when he announced in WCW, too. He is trying to cover up for the fans apathy.

[James Steele]

LOL

[James Steele]

ANGLE IS ON FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

[Juan]

Rhyno got pinned, I lost a $10 bet

[screech]

IT'S A FARCE

[James Steele]

:lol:

I love Scott and Kurt's antics.

[James Steele]

:lol:

Where is Nash? He would make it even better.

[screech]

He did it during War Games when he announced in WCW, too. He is trying to cover up for the fans apathy.

Makes sense. It's really fucking annoying, though.

[screech]

OMG NO ONE SAW THIS COMING

[James Steele]

WHAT KIND OF CRAP IS THIS?!?!?

[DarKCentaur]

Umm, where is Samoa Joe?

[James Steele]

BLOODY WANKERS!!!

[James Steele]

SCOTT AND KURT ARE DOUBLE TEAMING JEFF!!!

[screech]

Umm, where is Samoa Joe?

Raping Bashir

[screech]

NOT EVEN CLOSE

[Juan]

The Stroke

[James Steele]

JEFF STROKES SCOTT, SCOTT IS OUT OF IT. ANGLE SLAMS JEFF, BUT JEFF GETS UP AND THEY CONTINUE TO EXCHANGE STRIKES. KURT TUGS ON JEFF, BUT JEFF COUNTERS. JEFF STROKES KURT...BUT SCOTT STOPS KURT FROM ENDING IT. SCOTT SLAMS JEFF AND KURT PINS HIM FOR THE FINISH!

[James Steele]

OH MY GOODNESS!

[screech]

God Joe looks awful

[screech]

SCREW YOUR MATH

[Juan]

Who in their right mind would be "afraid" of Samoa Joe

[DarKCentaur]

Did Joe get fatter?

[James Steele]

Wow, Joe looks ridiculous.

[screech]

LOL at the guy in the crowd trying to warn Kurt

[screech]

Yes, Joe got fatter

[screech]

HIGHWAY ROBBERY

[James Steele]

Wow, Samoa Joe is complete overkill.

[James Steele]

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS??!!!

[screech]

The gauntlet got 33 minutes of TV time. That's more wrestling for one match than the last month's worth of iMPACTs.

[Droford]

Who in their right mind would be "afraid" of Samoa Joe

I demand some Joe's gonna eat you! chants.

[screech]

CORNETTE vs. WEST

BOOK IT!

[James Steele]

CRAZY KURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

[James Steele]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[screech]

Why didn't he take out his mouth piece?

[Juan]

Kurt looks freakishly tiny

[DarKCentaur]

Wow, West is awesome right now

[James Steele]

PLEASE COME HOME TO VINCE, KURT!

:lol: @ West/Cornette

[screech]

The Frontline still exists?

[James Steele]

Please tell me that is painted on Joe's face, and not a tattoo.

Samoa Joe, please don't try so hard...it makes you HOW BIZARRE!

[Droford]

so..wait..Joe doesnt even want to be a captain..

enter Jarrett..ugh..

[James Steele]

so..wait..Joe doesnt even want to be a captain..

enter Jarrett..ugh..

JOE WANTS TO TORTURE!

JOE WANTS TO EAT QUIZNOS!

[screech]

PUT IT IN HIM, JOE

[Juan]

I don't even know why I DVR'd this show, I'm gonna delete it right now...

[James Steele]

I have never had Quiznos despite them popping up like pimples in my hometown and one being opened on my campus.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Think Subway without any redeeming nutritional value.

Although I would probably pay to see the hypothetical Quizno's commercial with Scott Steiner.

[screech]

I would pay to see any commercial with Scott Steiner.

[James Steele]

Oven: Put it in me, Scott.

Steiner: **** right I will, you ******* **** **&*******.
