I love how they are merely paying lip service to TNA's home grown talent only to mainevent ppv with washed up WWE talent.

Sting was never in the WWE. Samoa Joe was never in the WWE (unless you consider that Jakked taping he worked). How are they washed up WWE talent? Oh, you meant Angle and Foley. Fairly certain that's not the main event, ace. It may end up being such, but so far there is no reason to not expect Samoa Joe vs. Sting to headline Bound For Glory.

Foley is a good talker and was a good worker. I didn't mind him as commentator, infact he was good. As far as working, home boy should be retired and stay retired. Plus, it isn't like Foley in his prime, never faced Angle in his prime.

Yeah, I know Joe and Sting were never in WWE, didn't say they were. I said that were paying lip service to TNA's home grown talent in reference to Jarrett saying that Samoa Joe and AJ Styles were carrying this company, and that they were carrying the company before the Kurt Angle's and Sting's came to the promotion. So infact I had already adressed Joe as being homegrown. As for Sting, he is a WCW guy, and you can't say he is TNA homegrown either. The point was, they are saying AJ and Joe have been carrying TNA only to give the Mainevent slot to Foley and Angle.

I fail to see how that's relevant. God, you are retarded.

How the fuck do you know the main event slot would have gone to Foley and Angle? Every year the TNA World Title match has closed the show, even when Rhino was fucking challenging for it. Seriously, fuck you, BDC.

I maintain that the real problem with TNA is the writing. Not the older talent, but rather Vince Russo sitting in the back with Dutch Mantel following his every move. Angle has been willing to put stars over, Booker T was looking forward to it, and really, Christian's whole purpose of going over to TNA was so he could be the star he knew he could be (for once).

Mick Foley WILL put stars over. When has he not? Now the match is Kurt Angle vs. Jeff Jarrett again, so you can all be happy. Wait, that awfully untalented Kurt Angle is in the match. God forbid we watch that one.

Now we may get Mick Foley doing commentary for the PPV, which would rule.

WWE also main events its PPVs with washed up WWE talent, if you're gonna look at it that way.
It's a problem with wrestling as a whole, rather than the companies. They put attitude era stars out there, because thats what people will watch. When they try to get away from it, the fans either don't accept that person, or the faithful resent them. It's something the wrestling business and fans need to overcome.
Don't knock TNA main eventing a PPV with Angle and Foley when WWE is main eventing theirs with Jericho and Michaels, or HHH and Undertaker.

Granted, those guys can still go. So why not? I have no problem with it and neither do most of you. Well, just like they can still go, so can Angle and the ones who didnt get Along with Vince, for the most part. The fans accept it and they still put on a hell of a match. Angle main eventing a PPV is no different or washed up than HHH or Michaels, or even Jericho. His TV age is younger than all of them. Foley, I can tell you right now can still have a great match. He just needs to dedicate himself to it in advance, which it seems he already has.
