Their undercards were full of awesome. That was part of what made WCW a great hook, the NWO hooked casuals the great undercard hooked the hardcores. |

TNA just eerily reminds me of the WCW when Russo was running wild with the New Blood vs. Millionaires crap, Goldberg turning heel, David Arquette winning the WCW Title, etc. It's going downhill and FAST. |

No one books like that now because WCW went under, now everyone books like it's WWE 1998 where the show focuses on 3 guys and you get 15 minutes of wrestling in a 2 hour show.

There is a huge list of little things TNA could do that would hook them a decent audience but they'll never do it because it's far to logical.

I really don't know why they don't try to mold their shows after a company like ROH. Let the guys go out there, put on crazy and awesome matches, and base the storylines off of the in ring action instead of vice versa. Sadly, the TNA brass thinks the way to compete with the WWE is to bring in old, over the hill names and have kooky storylines. |

Well, TNA doesn't draw nationally, either. At worst it would be a lateral move.

Also Samoa Joe for as nice a worker as he is, his look is a huge problem. |

Looks like Orton wins tonight, which wouldn't normally bode well for him winning Sunday.
There were more problems with the Shane/Blahtista/HHH team, though. |

1) 2 guys just don't like each other for some simple reason or 2) 2 guys fighting over a title (or 4 for tag teams) It's amazing what you can do if you keep it simple. |

There's a reason some of the biggest draws this country has ever seen couldn't work at all or were marginal type workers. They didn't draw because they could work... |
