Try to see THEIR side...
We all bitch and moan about what TNA, WWE or any other promotion does. Whether we think it's stupid, ludicrous or down right awful, let's try to see and discuss THEIR side, and at least try to make some sense of it.

Some sample topics:

WWE firing Bryan Danielson
TNA keeping on Bischoff and Hogan
WWE lacking a tag team division
TNA pushing Rob Terry

WWE firing Bryan Danielson - They had to, can't set the precedent that talent can overstep the limit and get away with it.

TNA keeping on Bischoff and Hogan - TNA needs names to draw in the casual fan, and Hulk Hogan is the most well known name in wrestling history. Plus, the two of them were at the center of one of the biggest angles in wrestling history, maybe they can catch lightning in a bottle again?

WWE lacking a tag team division - The tag division has always been a part of the undercard, and instead of pushing teams, they'd rather take their undercard time and push new, individual personalities. With an active tag division, guys like Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Kofi Kingston etc would have less TV time to shine on their own.

TNA pushing Rob Terry - Its worked for the WWE in the past, and he's their best shot at having a muscle bound face of the company.

WWE firing Bryan Danielson- They need to keep their sponsors happy to get more sponsors in the future. They lost a good number of sponsors because of the TV-14 Attitude Era.

TNA keeping on Bischoff and Hogan- I was more excited when I heard Bischoff was coming along with Hogan. They just picked a bad time to go head to head with Raw during the Road to Wrestlemania. So, now that they learned from that experience they can move on.

WWE lacking a tag team division-Might just be that the wrestlers want to get over on their own.

TNA pushing Rob Terry- They gave him a title because TNA was going to be in Wales. A typical thing WWE always would do to give random titles to William Regal when they went to England. I'm sure Vince is pissed off that he's not in the WWE.

WWE Firing Danielson - obviously was to keep WWE PG so they can attract sponsors and make it more family friendly. Plus he's popular with the IWC.

TNA keeping Bischoff and Hogan - simple....name value. Hulk Hogan is one of the most popular wrestlers in the business and Bischoff is one of the most controversial man in wrestling so yeah. say no more.

WWE lacking tag teams - because Vince wants to create singles stars instead of pushing two wrestlers as a tag team.

TNA pushing Rob Terry - To me it's nice to have a Welshman getting a push (being biased there). Still the guy has no ability only a look, They might think "yeah this guy has a great look now let's push him". To me he's better off as a Hoss to another wrestler.

WWE Firing Daniel Bryan - We wanted too fuck with the IWC, so we sent out a false story about how we fired him. It worked.

TNA Keeping Hogan And Bishoff - Big Names = Big Ratings?

WWE Lacking Of Tag Teams - We are focused solely on the building of individuals not groups, this isn't Japan.

TNA Pushing Rob Terry - He is a freak!

WWE firing Bryan Danielson - When a high up sponser/outside force, whether it be Mattel or Linda's campaign, has a problem with something, it really has to be dealt witih. Obviously if it wasn't for this, Vince wouldn't have fired Dragon. He was brought back on Sunday, his name got amplified tenfold in the process, and the sponser was happy.

TNA keeping on Bischoff and Hogan - Hogan arguably is the biggest name in wrestling history. Even if he just pops up now and does his poses people will be pumped.

WWE lacking a tag team division - Look at how many people were underutilized in the tag team division, while they were better singles. Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Dynamite Kid, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Shelton Benjamin, Jeff Hardy, Edge and Christian, Brian Kendrick, Booker T, and Scotty Steiner just off the top of my head. If there is money to be made with a guy as a singles competitor, why waste him when he has to carry someone lesser than him in a division which is second fiddle anyways nowdays?

TNA pushing Rob Terry - He can learn to do moves, and not everyone is built like a brick shithouse like he is. A bruising Brit who doesn't work the normal European style could appeal to a larger audience.

Has Bischoff ever been asked on tv or a dvd WHY he let this happen?

Or was he not there anymore? Was it Russo?

WWE firing Bryan Danielson - If they didn't, they'd lose sponsors

WWE lacking a tag team division - Only main events at wrestlemania will always be a non-tag match.
TNA pushing Rob Terry - If wrestling was real, he'd be the champion in any company right now. Plus, the Freak Buster is growing on me.

Firing Danielson-I don't even consider it a firing. Vince planned to bring him back after the primary.Linda won and he could now bring back Danielson with out it affecting her campaign.Even if someone does say something about it they have months to let it fade away before it's time to vote again.

Rob Terry- Batista sold a lot of merch.Rob Terry is already a better wrestler with more agility then him.

Bischoff and Hogan-Two of the biggest names ever in the buisness. They are attention grabbers and attention is what TNA desperately needs right now.

WWE TAG TEAMS- I cannot defend this in any way shape or form.Just sad and dissapointing.

Yet they really didn't BURY Mark Henry, as he's still around and at times he's been "mildly" pushed.
