Is Twitter Good for Wrestling?

I don't think anyone has brought this up before and looking at Joey Styles comments on the Nexus got me thinking...

Lately I wonder if WWE and TNA both regret pushing their stars to join Twitter. The TNA talent just keeps shooting themselves in the foot by promising "big surprises" and "major changes", only to never really deliver or have it spoiled by another one of their stars. And WWE stars, well, they just seem to keep saying all of the things they shouldn't be on Twitter, break kayfabe, and get fired for it. Take Matt Hardy for example, I actually can't tell anymore if the guy is tweeting in character or as himself. I have a feeling that he's gonna lose his job one day because of something he writes on Twitter. Just sayin..

Beyond that, sometimes I wish that they would carry over twitter discussions to their tv programming. Remember the Twitter War between Jericho and Miz. Why did we never get that on RAW?!?! Everything they wrote slamming each other was just hilarious.

Ultimately, I want to know what is your guys' opinion is on how twitter is helping or hurting wrestling.
