TNA is better right now. The last few episodes of Impact have left me really excited at the end. This week's ending with Joe and Angle nearly winning the tag titles was flipping awesome and it left me wanting more, thus more likely to tune it next week. (Not that I will as I download it as I do not have satellite).
Here is why I love TNA right now - - X-Division - LAX - Nash/Shelley/Starr are hilarious and Shelley is the next Jericho IMO - Sting is starting to become quite badass and actually entertaining me for a change. I'm glad he dropped the title and this thing with Abyss (Chris) and Jim Mitchell is interesting. - Joe/Angle is awesome. - Christian Cage is the best thing in wrestling today. - I also have the inevitable return of my beloved JJ to look forward to

I agree with everything stated above, besides the JJ remark. WTF on that one.
I would also like to add: -AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels -Seeing Rhino used properly -Senshi -Tyson Tomko, for some reason, is highly entertaining. -I mark for the Musclebuster. That really does mean something to me when I don't mark for any other finisher. |

TNA > SD > ECW > RAW (the recent happenings on ECW knocked it down)
Raw is just.. CRAP and it sucks because all the "cool" WWE guys are there, just about. |

Being better than WWE at this moment doesn't mean shit though. WWE has become unwatchable for me (I just can't stand Raw, and I rarely have time to watch Smackdown. ECW is the oly saving grace, and that's not saying much right now.)
For the life of me though, I still can't get into a habit of watching TNA... I'm praying that WSX is good... Rumor has it they're going to have some great gimmicks... We'll see. |

After last night, I'd rather watch the weekly half hour show that's on Public Access here than RAW.
Horrible wrestling, crappy gimmicks, shitty low-quality recorded VHS is still better than the shitfest they called RAW. I think I'm switching things over to SmackDown! and TNA for a while.... Last edited by Xero; 01-09-2007 at 11:37 AM. |

What's wrong with the Public Access wrestling?
My local public access show has a guy called "Ninja Presley".... How can that be a bad gimmick?!? |

Last time I checked they had like a 500 pound Vampire. It's mostly either Russo gimmicks or generic wrestlers.
Anyway, just got finished watching last week's Impact. Aside from VKM and the Roode/Young/Brookes angles, it really wasn't too bad. Truthfully, in entertainment value, it's miles ahead of RAW. |

I have to agree, that while TNA has its flaws, It is more interesting (at least for me) because it, has more then maineventers being pushed, midcarders seem to be sub-me instead of mid-carders for example, Sabin, Daniels, Styles seem to be ME-ers but really aren't. They are high up and seem like ME-ers as they get pushed, and I always like thier matches. Anyways thats my opinion.

Well like Mick Foley said about 97-98 Raw, "we were putting on the better show for about a year or more before it even showed up in the ratings"
Same applies for now, if TNA continues to provide a better show as well as improving, and WWE continues its current shittiness, it'll eventually show up. Patience folks. |

The thing is we notice the shit now, and when we hear the ratings go up we have to think back and think, wait what happened 3 months ago? Fuck our short attention spans.

Neither TNA nor WWE are putting on great entertainment, however TNA is at least putting on some good matches.

If Turner was smart he'd quickly jump on the chance to start at another company, given that WWE n TNA aren't that good right now.

Also, Turner is contractually obligated to stay clear of Wrestling Promotions until 08, isn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong.

I seriously tried watching TNA again last night and I still find it worse than Raw.
I know that it's not saying much. I would quit watching wrestling, but unlike a lot of people here I can actually admit that I don't have the will power to do so. |

I was pretty underwhelmed by Impact last night, but still thought it was much MUCH better than Raw lately. They really need two hours. There's some good storylines going, but all the matches are just too damn short. One of the key events that happened last night, they didn't even show on TV or even replay! (Referencing 3D jumping Konnan). Terrible time management. Even worse, they've had two weeks to edit this shit together and STILL decided not to show it.
Also, given the situation with DX...you'd think that they could have retaped a VKM promo to match the current events that have taken place with HHH's injury and getting VKM chants on Raw. The "Alamo" segment just made TNA look 5 steps behind the times. |
