I was watching TNA last week and found myself marking out more times than a mark. I couldn't believe it lol.
The first was when Stevie Richards got on the mic, I have missed him and his greatness.
Second was in the same promo when Raven returned. I haven't seen Raven in TNA, cause I never watched it back then.
Third mark out moment came when Victoria debuted, she is looking hot! And finally the last mark out moment was for 'The Franchise' Shane Douglas, he isn't looking as great as he used to but its The Franchise for fucks sake.
After the show ended I was amazed at the amount of times I marked out for TNA compared to WWE shows. I cant remember the last time I marked out for a moment in Raw or Smackdown (I marked out for D.H Smith and The Hart Trilogy).
Anybody find this is the case with themselves as of late?

Not over TNA that's for sure.

Essentially, all you did was mark for ECW and some boobs. Clearly genius booking by TNA :shifty:

Hey, if it's simple and it works. The Knockouts Division is very cool right now. I'm loving Awesome Kong being a face out to destroy the pretty bitches, and getting Victoria in there is only going to make things better. They just need to let Raisha Saeed/Cheerleader Melissa wrestle, and maybe get one Japanese girl to just spread the greatness.

I had a small mark out moment when Chris Sabin told Jay Lethal there was no reason to yell, by the way. I love The Motor City Machine Guns. I'm also a huge mark for Matt Morgan, for whatever reason.

I love the Motor City Machine Guns, I loled when Lethal asks which hand it was.

Suicide is actually growing on me. I thought bringing in the character was initially stupid, but the dude actually seems pretty messed up, and he delivers in the ring. I'm willing to at least buy into the "who's in the costume?" storyline enough to a pay-off. I'm afraid TNA won't deliver a pay-off, though. Or they'll do it way too late.

See, even this wouldn't get me to start watching TNA, i just never get in to what is actually going on for some reason, not like i haven't tried either!

I'll mark out if TNA fires all of the guys and focuses only on the knockouts

Wrestlers making their debuts or returns to a promotion are usually mark out moments. The fact that TNA had 4 at the same time doesn't mean they're upping their quality.

I eagerly await the time when the TNA audio department is told to "cut the fucking music."

Can you imagine how great TNA would be if all they did was debut guys who can't or won't work for McMahon every week?

TNA has 62 people on their roster right now.
Around 25 people are guys who used to work for, or cannot work for Vince McMahon.
TNA gettins some WWE doesn't have isn't much of a shocker. I mean, it was cool when Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash, Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle, Sting, Rhino, and others deubted, but taking 3 or 4 people in one night that all used to work for Vincent Kennedy McMahon..... Yea........ Uhhhhh.....
So TNA brought a glass of talent to the raging fail fire. It's still a glass of water.

Well I gotta admit...just seeing Raven and Richards back together with Daffney is pretty sweet.

In no way shape or form do I agree. TNA have had some quality matches lately and some (not all) but some of the storyline are actually interesting (i.e. Stevie Richards/Raven/Abyss). I believe they are slowly upping their quality.
