Why should I give a fuck about Crimson in TNA?
 
Why should anybody? Why the fuck is he getting pushed as such?

SOMEBODY EXPLAIN THIS TO ME!!!!!!!

Captain of Fun 08-17-2011 03:32 AM

I don't even know who that is.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:34 AM

Gunner can fuck off too, while we're at it.

Captain of Fun 08-17-2011 03:35 AM

0 for 2.

Captain of Lucky. He's been undefeated for 8 months or so. I'm currently watching the most recent Impact, so maybe it ends here, but there's nothing to cheer for here at all.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:39 AM

Nope, still undefeated. Gross.

Captain of Fun 08-17-2011 03:48 AM

I stopped watching when Immortal formed. Made no sense to me. A lot of what TNA does, makes no sense to me.

People flipping back between face and heel every month with no explanation. People allying with one another for no apparent reason.

Instead of Impact Wrestling, they should change their name to Attention Deficit Disorder Wrestling.

Doesn't really roll off the tongue though, I guess.

Purgatory 08-17-2011 04:12 AM

Yeah, I don't get this either. Eric Young has more charisma and is more deserving of some kind of push. Yeah, he's their 'Global Champion'...But, what the fuck is that? Look at Jarrett, right? He's the Champion of Mexico, or some shit.

Fuckin pisses me off.

Captain of Fun 08-17-2011 04:31 AM

lol champion of mexico, what?

Juan 08-17-2011 06:37 AM

He beat me for that title

RiX1024 08-17-2011 08:31 AM

They push Crimson because he's got the look but he's green.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 12:00 PM

Eric Young has been pretty awesome, even though he hasn't even been in the arena in months. Crimson SORTA has the look, I guess, but I'm hoping they don't think they've got another Goldberg on their hands. I could see him winning the BFG series and winning the title, but that would really suck.

Speaking of the BFG series, why is Devon doing so well?

Innovator 08-17-2011 12:16 PM

Because the nwo reunion failed, so it's time for a Goldberg streak.

Riker 08-17-2011 12:26 PM

what the fuck is a BFG Series. If it is anything like the AWA Team Series, I am IN!

McLegend 08-17-2011 12:29 PM

Wait what?

Jarrett is the champion of Mexico?

Innovator 08-17-2011 12:30 PM

Jarrett is taking McLegend's spot as a belt mark.

McLegend 08-17-2011 12:32 PM

Are you guys being serious?

Like he's really the Champion of Mexico? Seriously?

The Bound For Glory Series is a point-based competition between 12 or so TNA wrestlers in which the winner will receive a shot at the World title at the Bound For Glory pay per view. A pinfall victory is worth 7 points and a submission victory is worth 10 points. 10 points are deducted for a loss via disqualification. In tag matches, the person who gets the decision gets the points, but not his partner(s).

It's not really a terrible idea, but it leads to a bunch of matches that don't really have anything behind them besides the series.

Does THIS look serious to you?

McLegend 08-17-2011 12:41 PM

I'm too busy looking at Karen Angle to notice anything else.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 12:45 PM

Take your time.

McLegend 08-17-2011 12:50 PM

O I see it now. That does look pretty serious.

Karen Jarrett

He does?

Looks like a lanky albino to me :-\

Gertner 08-17-2011 01:16 PM

Why should you give a fuck about TNA in general?

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 01:18 PM

Does Crimson have 'the look'?

YOU BE THE JUDGE, TPWW!

Both him and Gunner have grown on me and I don't think their horrible (but nowhere near amazing) There both big, young guys, I dont think either is ready for main event status, but it would be refreshing to have a world champ who isn't pushing 50

Innovator 08-17-2011 03:10 PM

Whatever happened to Muffin?

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:12 PM

I think part of my problem with Crimson is that his name is so stupid. Maybe it'd be better if he were like Jake Crimson or something.

Ah so it's like the G-1 Climax in New Japan. It's a pretty huge event over there, but New Japan is booked more like an actual sport, so it works out pretty well. I always wondered how it would fair in a sports entertainment climate. Apparently not very well according to thrilla.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:40 PM

No, the series in and of itself is a fine idea. The people that they have leading it is what's confusing to me. Crimson is in first place, followed by like Robert Roode and Devon. None of those guys seem like they should be top tier champions.

Samoa Joe has negative ten points, but I think he's going to make a big run sooner or later.

Riker 08-17-2011 03:50 PM

Welcome to TNA, where the Points are made up and dont matter anyway,

Seems like there should be 2 top guys battling back and forth, and maybe like you said Joe should be pushing at the end.

Why does Devon even have a job? Same with BULLY RAY?


And thrilla, I disagree on Jake Crimson. I think Crimson kind of sucks, but I hate Jakes , Jacks, Johnnys, Jimmys, Joeys and whatever with a fake last name.

Johnny Nitro
Jimmy Rave
Jack Swagger
Jack Victory
Johnny Kashmere
Joey Mercury
Johnny Devine

Why not a Frank? Or Vincent? Or Gus?

Gus Crimson. There is a fucking name for you.

Riker 08-17-2011 03:52 PM

That pic is the first I have seen of Crimson. Seems like a big dude, like has Vince's look.

Needs to fix that hair. Ugh.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:53 PM

Fine, I'll take Gus. I think Crimson just sounds horrible on its own.

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 03:55 PM

Jake Crimson actually sounds like a vampire gimmick.

But yeah, he can be Waldo Crimson for all I care. As long as it's more than just Crimson. Gunner could use a name, too. They sound like henchmen at best, not people who should be winning the BFG series.

Riker 08-17-2011 03:58 PM

At least Gunnar is a real name. So its like he is Christian, just using a single name. I am not sure what he could add and have sound right.

Crimson is just shit. Wasnt he originally paired with Red?

Anybody Thrilla 08-17-2011 04:02 PM

I always thought Christian was a silly name too, but I'm used to it by now. Christian Cage sounds way better.

Not sure about this Red character. I've only gotten back into TNA over the last two months or so after a two year hiatus or so.

Emperor Smeat 08-17-2011 04:06 PM

Was he the guy TNA hyped up coming from the military or was that another guy unrelated to Crimson?

I'd assume TNA is grooming him to be their next "AJ Styles" in a sense of having a young guy in the main event instead of just "WWE rejects" or older wrestlers all the time. Probably would end up doing the same as they did to AJ Styles at first and forget about him after the initial push.

Wishbone 08-17-2011 04:58 PM

The guy from the military was Jesse Neal who is currently no where to be found (mabe injured I don't know). As for Crimson I honestly don't have a problem with them pushing a new young talent and the guy's not completely horrible. I do think they're over doing his push a bit though.
