The reasoning behind watching TNA is the same reasoning I would attribute to the viewing of things like rooster fighting, controlled demolitions of decrepit buildings, frog dissection and two chicks one cup.
I.E. morbid curiosity |

I watched some again tonight...
Mickey James is great, one of the best female wrestlers I have ever seen... though she was in a cage match with "Madison" another good worker, but it was so unnecessary as the cage did not have any affect on the match or the outcome. Bad choice, we don't need gimmick matches for "no reason", but it's TNA what more can you ask for? James Storm is once again very entertaining to me, he isn't quite "there" but it could happen if he works with the right guys... His match with Hardy wasn't very good and the over booked non finish totally sucked and ruined the show. They should have had Roode on commentary and then do a face off with the winner to close the show, or something simple, building to the PPV instead of trying to make me watch next week to see who the number one contender is. The point is to build to the big shows and as we all know, that is a skill TNA lacks. Bully Ray is great, especially in small doses, though I don't full understand where he fits into the main story. That's because I never watch though. Eric Young against Angelina Love was hilarious, keep it up Eric Young, keep it up. Best segment of the night... Alex Shelly confronts Austin Aries, great segment with great work from both men. Shelly could totally make it in WWE if he got the chance. I said to my brother when watching this... and get ready for it, it may never happen again... especially while watching TNA... "THAT MAY BE THE MOST LOGICAL SEGMENT I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE" Champ - I'm the best you guys, I've beaten everyone, either they have to get bigger dudes for me to fight or I might have to retire early, that's really how good I am. Challenger - No way man, I could beat you, cause your a cheater. Champ - Whatever dude, you've been hurt for a while, besides who are you anyway? How did you even get here tonight? Oh yeah that's right you flew in on Chris Sabin's coat tails. Challenger - Psssyeah right man, I'm pretty sick in the ring but if you don't think so and your so confident then go ahead and put your title on the line against me. Champ - No way dude, you gotta earn that right. Challenger - Alright fine. SCENE Add some good acting and a sincere lack of unbelievable BS and we got a good build for the PPV, provided Shelly wins his match. That was how you do it. |

James Storm needs to watch some Austin promo's, gain some more badasserey to his persona. I don't feel scared of him, he should have that quality.
Bobby Roode needs to get better suits, he looks like a fagget. Not the gay kind either. |

TNA has its moments for me, but that could be said about WWE too. Some of the stuff Eric Young does is pretty hillaious. I like Gunner, Crimson and the veterans like AJ, RVD and Joe still put on good matches. The X division has it's moments too. The 2 out of 3 series between Ion and that other guy (I cant even remember his name) were some great matches, and Aires is flat out awesome. They have much better female wrestlers, then again it depends if that appeals to you at all. For me, TNA has a habit of getting real good then falling to crap, then working it's way back up. I think right now it's slowly getting better and hopefully it will continue to get better for awhile

eh, its has its moments when they put on something genuinly good. they're just way too far in between and like late wcw too many egos and not a person strong enough to keep them in check in the back.

PROS
------ Some good originals Some veterans you'd prefer to see on TV than not at all Knockouts don't look as phony as the WWE Divas, and their women's matches are superior to WWE's X Division has decent talents and has potential to make some big names Not PG Good entrances Good gimmicks when at their best, but.... (look at cons) CONS ------ Wastes alot of their good originals Crappy crappy storylines Rely too much on the veterans to fix everything Small audience Kills good gimmicks even when they're drawing Has some bad gimmicks that linger even when they're not drawing Most of their matches are very unimpressive Doesn't look like they're planning to make themselves any bigger than they currently are |

The Aces & Eights angle continues to go strong. Usually TNA arcs fizzle after about a month, but Pritchard and company are keeping the potential A&E leader a wide possibility, similar to the identity of the RAW GM.
Sting wore tights with pink scorpions to celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Devon nailed Sting with his spinning, jumping back elbow and then shouted, "Who the man?!?" at the rabidly booing Impact! crowd. Sting waved down Aces & Eights to attack him while applying the Scorpion Death Lock. Sting might be the A&E leader, or else why would he gesture for someone to come from backstage when he's about to win the match? |

I tried every time one of my favourite guys went over (Angle, Anderson) and I couldn't keep watching longer than 2 episodes.
Pretty much have no interest in a fed where one of the Dudley Boys is a main eventer, plus there's the Jeff Hardy debacle. |

I enjoyed Bound For Glory more than I enjoyed the past month of WWE programming, that's for sure. The Storm/Roode match is my fav recent wrestling match.
The Aces and Eights storyline is still extremely retarded though. |

In the recent, say, 2 months or so, TNA has had some better programming than WWE, to be honest.
The only things I even tune in to WWE are for Sheamus/Barrett (their matches have been winning), Ziggler, Sandow, and without saying THE RYBACK Although my faith in him is being tried by failing to finish Heyman..... Gotta agree with Pintint, Storm/Roode feud that has been going on has been done very well. Their match was nothing short of excellent. A's & 8's started off well, but has turned into a steaming pile worse than tuning into WcW and seeing a rainbow of nWo shirts claiming to be "different". |

that last part is like saying "no interest in a fed where one of the Hart Foundation/The Rockers/the Hollywood Blondes/Skyscrapers" etc. Doesn't mean jack shit. Not to mention Bully Ray has been excellent since he started giving a shit.
