TNA Live
 
i've only been to two shows one in asbury park and one in rahway nj and they were both great. I must say TNA has WWE beat when it comes to house shows.

Thats because house shows are about wrestling, which TNA has WWE beat.

Now, when it comes to making a watchable TV, TNA is garbage.

This is exactly their problem.

I considered going to the Rahway show but in the end I didn't want to support something that I don't enjoy. I know I would have enjoyed the show but I don't enjoy their TV.

WWE knows how to write soap operas. Maybe they should do that and leave wrestling to the pros.

The Pope 09-26-2010 08:52 PM

They left wrestling years ago.

RAW is just as bad as TNA. NXT is worse. SmackDown!, though? That's a bit of a leap...

The Pope 09-26-2010 09:39 PM

Smackdown has good wrestlers which they choose to use them as acters for some reason.

No, they arn't much better, but TNA makes me want to throw up, while the most I usually do during Raw or Smackdown is dry heave.

However, as this subject has been done to death, I will conclude by saying that a TNA house show would probably be pretty enjoyable. I actually saw a couple in Nashville before they moved. Saw Raven smack the hell out of a guy in a wheelchair. It was awesome.

However, as Xero said, I dont think I could bring myself to go to one now days, since I would be supporting a system I dont believe in. I want them to turn it around, I just dont think they will.

Hearing this makes me want Dixie to wake up and realize that they could be by and far the better WRESTLING company if they actually tried to be. I get having storylines and angles and what not. But the company's strength is their immensely talented roster.

They should run with it and start pumping out shows chock full of great wrestling with some short promos and storyline advancing skits in between. It'd definitely set them apart and help build a different type of fan base.

It would be a fan base that is nowhere near as profitable. But, they can't even get the fucking sheep in Orlando to buy a ticket.

Look how well that worked for ECW...and ECW didn't pay half of what TNA does for talent.

They actually sell them tickets or did they let him in free like most of their shows.
