Just a Thought
 
With the supposed "Monday Night Wars" returned (Anybody got a copy of the ratings?) I was thinking about how easy it would be for Vince McMahon to be a dick in this situation. He could come out and make this long drawn-out announcement about how a new company has come to challenge his iron-grip on the wrestling world. Then, with a wry smile he could promote as a heel Ring of Honor, telling his audience what channel they're on and telling them that they're going to end up just like WCW when he's finished with them.

While at the same he could have his agents work out some sort of program with the ROH, some temporary talent exchanges for instance.

I would approve of said idea.

Jordan 03-15-2010 01:27 PM

Yeah that would be really cool.

Swiss Ultimate 03-15-2010 01:30 PM

I just like the idea of the WWE not even acknowledging TNA's existence. Like if Angle returns they should sell it as "Kurt Angle's return to wrestling".

I did try a search on Monday Night ratings in general and came up empty.

Swiss Ultimate 03-15-2010 01:34 PM

Um...maybe TNA should be competing with Hanna Montana instead of the WWE.

Mr Amazing 03-15-2010 01:55 PM

Tna should use the fact WWE acts like tna does not stand a chance as fire and bring the best product week in weekout i mean they have the talent to do it

Swiss Ultimate 03-15-2010 02:08 PM

If I was in charge of TNA I would do that...however, they brought in Hogan and the Nasty Boys instead.

Sixx 03-15-2010 02:27 PM

Weren't they supposed to cancel Hannah Montana?

roach21 03-15-2010 02:37 PM

Spongebob, Hannah Montana, Icarly, Penguins of Madagascar.... I see from a business perspective why Vince would want to go PG.

Tna was retarded to have retirement home rejects races like hogan,flair,Nastiesand hall wrestle and a cage match end in DQ

They should of had have a AJ Styles vs Desmond Wolfe vs Pope in a Ultimate X match for the World Titleas the main event and they would easily beat McMahon and Friends vs Cena instead they get a rating below 1.0 and the best match they had was the Xtitle match

Hannah fucking Montana?! Are you kidding me?!?!?!?! I have officially lost hope in humanity:nono:

Swiss Ultimate 03-15-2010 03:16 PM

I don't know if an awesome match would have saved the ratings that night. I just wonder how many people were turned off by that first horrible show and how many fans of WWE who clicked over to see what the noise was decided it was no better than what they were already watching.

Swiss Ultimate 03-15-2010 03:23 PM

Oh and I hate Ultimate X and King of the Mountain.

Jeritron 03-15-2010 03:26 PM

Tonight they have a taped show with no big suprises or matches, going up against the "go home show" which will feature Stone Cold, and Wrestlemania rematches including Jericho vs Shawn Michaels.

I'd be suprised if the ratings gap wasn't worse tonight

The Jayman 03-15-2010 03:26 PM

WWE's new home: Nickelodeon

Mr Amazing 03-15-2010 04:25 PM

raw winning this round tonight

1. Miley Cyrus is hot
2. Kids are stupid

Xero 03-15-2010 06:11 PM

lol Spongebob got bumped for Hannah Montana.

Xero 03-15-2010 06:13 PM

I agree though, this would definitely work in Vince's favor. Though HD Net isn't exactly a widely accessible show.

Would be awesome if after the first "season" finishes he gives NXT's spot to ROH.
