iMPACT! : Thursday On SpikeTV

[hbk2hhh]

@123garrett in all seriousness, if they killed tna wouldnt ratings have gone down house shows gone down (even worse) wouldnt wrestlers left the company. I hate how people come on and talk shit about facts they dont have because they dont like the direction of the company when their doing fine if you dont like it dont watch it and shut up

[HotMan660]

Why TNA keeps on getting 1.0 ratings because they refuse to get rid of old superstars that are getting boring to the fans and because of the stupid storylines, too many comedy gimmicks, they copy WWE's ideas, they don't hire good storywritters with original ideas, they have a crappy setting, they have it on Spike TV and the last one they keep on using ex WWE superstars instead of the new ones and have stupid gimmicks that's the reason why TNA is a mess right now.

[KCG013]

And while Jarrett was in power and there were less stars, we saw more emphasis on the wrestling back in the day and they had to use the younger guys

[tnawrestlingorginal]

i can see tna being fixed after october but please dont keep the people holding it back so it can happen again dixie u own the company but we put money in ur pocket take charge. get names created so people say alex shelly is a true performer. instead of u see the great aj styles having 2 carry nash an thn losing. take charge. dont rely on people who fail hell give angle booking rights in partner ship with a person who will draw the younger 18 to 34 adiunce we rely on.

[KCG013]

Giving Angle booking rights would probably fuck the company over even more. I like Jarrett but look what happened there. Anyone who has booking rights and is an active member of the roster always seems to fuck up. Angle is fucking up right now by being a bitch and complaining about his wife (who he divorced) getting with Jeff..now Jeff is fucked and this guy started the company

[tnawrestlingorginal]

i sais get some 1 with angle he puts over young guys an ays he doesent need 2 be champion an he is against the stupid gi mmick matches. we dnt know if he is it could be speculation i respect jarret an wud like 2 still se him in company but with alot less power he just hires freinds an makes terrible decision he ia egotistacal person who robs the youngs spotlight on the show.

[KCG013]

Angle says alot of things and goes back on them though. As a fan I wouldnt want Angle wit hthat much power. I mean if he really wanted to put over younger guys Im sure we'd see more over younger guys now. He has enough pull backstage to get Jarrett pulled..Im sure he coulda declined having the title (AGAIN) in favour for a younger guy

[tnawrestlingorginal]

i am going to tna meet n greet n ireland an watching the house show. i found out on midway trough a news paper. no one nows abt till like month b 4 show. i have been at tna first 2 times in ireland loved it great wrestling the best fan interaction during the show it was something speacial. but shake things up i will continue 2 buy merch purchase tickets. and watch on bravo. but please show us respect and fix the problems. i do see improvments coming and see good. but please listen to fans again.

[tnawrestlingorginal]

tna i have been wachn since day 1 an am disgusted wth the way tna has gone impact 4 min matches aj being mistreated. the guns hell the entire x division an know the tag. sting please retire n october thn mafia will end i hope young faces aj some 1 who can perform with him. not kevin nash or booker t. now lashely make him wrestle long hard matches but push the orginals first like joe aj etc . after victory road u owe us asspecially i mean advertise better .

[HipnosisV1Games]

....didn't TNA hype the debut of Andromeda like 2 years ago lol

[HipnosisV1Games]

no his mic skills are good but he's just not a monster style talker

its better if he talks normal and be's a monster in the ring....like he was supposed to be in WWE lol

I like Lashley though and think he can actually Wrestle....of course I always liked Lashley just because of the cage thing he did on Umaga lol so I guess im just bein a Lashley mark XD

[wwfepenguin]

holy crap holy crap, this looks great!

[planetvegeta96]

wow fraken hardcore

[HipnosisV1Games]

-- Last week's episode of Impact had a total of 29:04 minutes of actual wrestling.

....thats awesome cause I enjoyed those 30 minutes more than any other WWE matches I saw last week...BRAVO TNA....even 30 minutes beat WWE

...lol im still loving Morgan vs AJ..."GET READY TO FLY!!!" **tosses AJ over ropes**

[redhurricane24]

Awesome! I thought I was the only one! Here's hoping that they do better in their 2nd match.

[HaloOverHead]

Really? Did you even watch Smackdown last week?

[HipnosisV1Games]

weird thing about smackdown lol

I LOVE Jeff Hardy....but I don't watch Smackdown! cause TNA iMPACT! makes me uninterested =P

[HaloOverHead]

Well the reason I ask is because I thought the Hardy/Morrison match was really good, might be worth checking out.

[bestthinggoing459]

Is TNA trying to recreate the Attitude Era or something? lol.

[ravelicious]

cant you even think or see they want to create their own thing? The attitude era was an awesome time in WWE, but before it, ECW was doing already pretty well in the same style. TNA are doing the same thing. Giving fans what they want to see, no matter what name you call it

[HipnosisV1Games]

not Recreate it......bring it back

[xXxryanmccarthyxXx]

yeah and they will fail the attitude era was the best and tna will never be it

[CaptainPhenomenal]

the language is here the violence is here the storylines all they miss is sexuallity

[lawliet3456]

BEAT JOE IF YOU CAN BUT SURVIVE IF HE LETS YOU.

so awesome.

[wolfkingy2k]

when did that happen 0:06

[jrock0993]

idk but i look foward to see it in 2 days hope mem gets wooped

[Thescotthalldotcom]

MEM is the old nWo and Bobby Lashley is the Goldberg of TNA. lol Sting still the lonewolf appear in the dark like he did in WCW against nWo..

So the nWo idea is back and it is great! This is 2SWEET!

[mandywwefan97]

what the ??

[TNAWrestlingNonstop]

Wow TNA Just No Stop Keep having Better & Better Shows Week after Week !! Check out My Channel

[onewarriornationIIc]

Hey TNA! When are you going to hire me? I could team up with Sting and the Blade runners can ride once more! Everybody knows I am more of a Warrior than Jim Hellwig ever was!

[GamingPalooza]

man... this weeks impact looks fkn INSANE! lol I saw it advertise on TV a few days ago.. and it definitely caught my attention... Everyone going absolutely crazy brawling in the parking lot...

THAT = RATINGS!

[dominican48]

Yes defintely when i saw this i was like what the hell whats goin on in TNA but my favorite about wrestling is wars thats why i like TNA is like out of control there just like back when WCW was now this will bring ratings i cant wait to see impact this thursday i wanna see whats this about wooooo...

[gurrg391]

the Yakuza are a real Japanese Mafia to all that didn't know. anyway. TNA is coming hard with their storyline here and they are bringing great matches to TV such as last week when Hernandez fair and square beat Samoa Joe. that was so sick and nobody saw that coming.

[lawliet3456]

perhaps watch Jackie Chan's The Shinjuku Incident to get a taste of the Yakuza?

[eldjdelacalle]

boricuas all day baby....... Puerto Rico'Hip-hop'Rap'Reggeaton i like the music & video

[Darkshadow780]

Bobby Lashley is stronger than the Main Event Maffia members??

[Fezzer]

What's with the shitty rap?

[Dowdsy69]

I think that TNA must have F.I.L.T.H.E.E. on a annual contract, in that he writes and performs one song for TNA at Hard Justice.

He did last year's theme as well.

[tragicdeceit]

hahaha so raw

[ThundaKlap360]

XD Bobby Lashley pwned the MEM again!!

[tnawrestlingorginal]

tna beat them on regular bases(in usa). an get alot more than ecw, superstars,and smackdown on a regular bases in the uk an are bearly behind raw 2 weeks ago they bet raw aswell

[ciaranod]

If Jeff goes, TNA needs a true visionary. A man that has a history of changing the buisness. TNA needs a real fucking genius. As Mick Foley called him, 'The Mad Scientist'

People. TNA NEEDS PAUL MOTHER FUCKING HEYMAN.

Dixie, get this man and your rating will SPIKE. The man is money

[canucktheclown]

Paul Heyman won't work for TNA. Apparently Heyman and Jim Cornette don't like each other.

[ciaranod]

Well, Cornette is one of the people that's on the verge of being fired so if he goes, Heyman may be coming in.

[psking777]

how about  eric bischoff

[xxxragexxx40965]

its possible but i think bischoff is doing something by himself some kind of business

[Dowdsy69]

Paul Heyman > Eric Bischoff

Just let Heyman handle the wrestling and let someone else handle the business.

He ain't too great with money, but he is amazing at booking.

[psking777]

yeah thats true

[gram1615]

We Want Raven!!

Im happy your not live. I can watch clips on here and never watch you guys on Spike no more.

Jeff Jarrett will be let go soon!

Please Taz stop pretending Joe is you and dont give him your catch lines.

[CaptainPhenomenal]

when raven was around poeles were saying that he is washed-up and that he looks like 40 year old emo

now evirobody wants him back fans this days dont know what they want

[Dowdsy69]

I want Raven in creative, he doesn't need an onscreen character, he can make matches happen and he can pass on his wisdom.

Did you know he is in MENSA?

[CaptainPhenomenal]

WHAT IS MENSA

[Dowdsy69]

The smartest 2% of people in the world.

[twistedkatana1]

they are at the point now of being profitable. they're not in any financial crisis.

and why do you want them to go out of buisness? having more wrestling in the world is a good thing. you get an additional 2 hours of wrestling a week, plus a whole other world of matches and storylines. things only get better when the competition gets bigger.

i don't know when you got into wrestling, but you did so because competition made the products good enough for you to enjoy it

[relam13]

Also, even if you don't want to watch TNA, their presence might at least pressure the WWE into putting out a better product.

[lawliet3456]

yeah, what happened to the days when Stone Cold came out in a beer truck spraying Vince McMahon with beer? when Stone Cold threw Rock's title in the river? or The Rock and Sock connection, this is your life?? when was the last ultimate swerve like TNA's Samoa Joe joing MEM?

seriously, i watched Smackdown and waiting for something cool to happen. instead, we get a by-the-numbers wrestling program that doesn't take risks.

[lawliet3456]

NO SHOCK. NO SURPRISES. if i wrestled for wwe i'd lose my passion for the biz. i'd hate the craft.

[SmokeandMirrors13]

WE WANT RAVEN!

COPY N PASTE! HA HA

[Dowdsy69]

You are an idiot, Dixie Carter never said that.

Also, the ratings for the show are averaging in at around 1.2/1.3 which is better than both ECW and Superstars.

[subsynchronous]

So is Bobby Lashley another one of Kurts puppet$ like Samoa Joe?

[Dowdsy69]

No, Lashley isn't in the Main Event Mafia.

[subsynchronous]

He was when he entered TNA. Besides, that's what I thought about the early days of Nation Of Violence.

[BigCityMonkey]

I mean Im not a huge TNA fan, but thats a negative red ranger! I don't think they're going anywhere. They're holding it down!

[XPlayer00]

More unfiltered Russo, this is going be another great impact!

[RDK619]

I Like TNA alot but.....

LESS TALKIN MORE WRESTLING! plz =)

AJ Styles is my hero!!!!!!!!!

oh and 1 of my fav wrestlers in comin to TNA!!!  4 up!

[kotk05]

TNA, please get rid of the Legend's Title or convert it to a TV title?

Looking forward to the next impact. Spread the word!

[Smokey137]

that's better idea than Legend, TV title is simplistic.

[relam13]

The Legend's Title is too restrictive. It should be something like the International title, for guys with talent, but not really main event material (Rhino, Eric Young, Homicide).

[Smokey137]

Or even a title similar to the European Title, or like you said International title, maybe that title can be the title that can be defended and won in countries like Japan for NJPW and AAA in Mexico, and have the champion from one of those promotins compete in TNA.

[Dowdsy69]

TV Title's aren't too great though as that means that it couldn't be defended on PPV or on house shows.

[kotk05]

True. Either way, the Legends title is worthless and needs to go.  Maybe no 4th title, just re-invest more time and effort into the tag and Xdiv titles.

[Dowdsy69]

Now you're talking!

X-Division has beasically been taken off of iMPACT! and onto YouTube.

Like I've said before, Amazing Red should be trying to get the title, Daniels should stay there, I think Brian Kendrick and Paul London should join, and have KENTA join.

KENTA would make a great competitor for almost all of the championships. (He could form a tag team with Kiyoshi, and be like the Yakuza or whatever).

[Rosshizzle]

the yakuza? lol theyre from gta 3!

[Dowdsy69]

Yakuza is the Japanese mafia, for real.

[Rosshizzle]

REALLY? whoa that was unexpected! i thought they were only in gta 3????

anyway thanks for letting me know =]

[canucktheclown]

Daniels doesn't need to be in X Division. He needs to be in the heavyweight division and win the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. The X Division isn't about weight limits and you are putting cruiserweight sized guys in that division. Put Hernandez in that division. It would make for something interesting.

[nrb6304]

Hernandez vs. Joe Ultimate-X for the X-Division title :)

[CaptainPhenomenal]

Joe could compete for the X title but not Hernandez is too big and not fast enough

[canucktheclown]

Hernandez is not actually smaller than Samoa Joe in terms of weight. They are the same height, but Samoa Joe is 290 pounds.

[THETNADEFENDER]

there is No Height/Weight Limit IN The X Division

[Frantyx]

well tajiri tried da whole yakuza thing bak n da wwe but he cudnt do it cuz he wudve offended da real yakuza so dats y dat myt not be a gud idea but still kenta shud tag team wit kiyoshi

[Dowdsy69]

Well they don't have to directly reference the Yakuza, and they could be seen as respecting them rather than dissing them.

[Frantyx]

yea tru....

[RMWrestling75]

I agree with you 100% (kotk05) about the Legends Title, but i think they should replace it with a TNA Light-Heavyweight Title so guys like Eric Young, Kiyoshi, or even Robert Roode can compete for it as a secondary title.

And yes, put more money into the Tag Team division, including the X division, Heavyweight division, & maybe a little bit into the Knockout division which is already good........your thoughts?

[ItachiUchiha112]

Thats what the x division title is for

[CaptainPhenomenal]

Tag team is already getting enough attention now put some attention on the X-division for months the tag title matches were hyped as if they were as important as the world title they need to do the same thing for the X- title make it look as impotant as the world title

[JamieLeeDay]

agreed. they used to hype the x division then they turned their focus to the knockouts and now they're focusing purely on the tags. i just wish they could build them all up at the same time.

[kotk05]

RMWrestling75, I like the idea of a Light-Heavyweight division very much only if they had a second show. Since they only have 1 show and only 2 hours, I'd say it's best to just kill the Legends title and rebuild the Xdiv title.

At the moment, I'm content with Knockout Title, it hasn't been tainted. It must be made safe from those who are not worthy: Morasca, Sharmell. TNA just need a better booker for the women. Savio Vega is out, I'm curious of who's gonna take over.

[RMWrestling75]

Some people say Paul Heyman, Raven, Eric B., or Kurt Angle! I guess we have to see what happens.....

For me i'll say Raven for booking like most of the fans & if possible Heyman can also work with the booking, creative team, talent, or show production maybe

[XxEDGExXRulezXx]

oh myy!!! I heard that Jeff Jarrett will come out of the institution, I can not believe this!!!!

[ajstyled]

TNA should bring back the Alpha Male!

[miyoshi82]

WTF is the British Invasion doing in that mess?

[Thrilla1234579]

Probably The MEM And The World Elite Joined Forces 4 A Night

Well, We'll Find Out Thursday

[SaveUsBlizzard]

it said EVERY WRESTLING IN THE LOCKEROOM.. so thats probably why.

[AttitudeEra1998]

The opening scene looks very cool.

[TNAiMPACTUltimate]

add me

[EternalDeathSavior]

This is what TNA needs. Attitude since the other company is pg. TNA needs to use that to their advantage. Maybe not be exactly like the attitude era. But perhaps have the attitude and the ring action TNA has been noted for. I am so bored of the WWE but that is me.

[veritasunleashed]

The massive brawl looks to be kick ass!

[AJS2210]

where can i find the video of this big brawl cant find it anywhere nd i really want to see it.

[Matthewxx52]

it will be on thursday

[YungLunatik]

[CabanaClassic]

[DoomsdayDCW]

I cant wait for this weeks episode

[DoomsdayDCW]

Looks like a good episode for once

[CaptainPhenomenal]

are you saying tna does not put on good shows if you dont like tna why watch it

[TeamExtremeMember8]

You don't have to dislike TNA to admit they don't put on a good show.

[CaptainPhenomenal]

You can say that TNA didnt put on a good TV show or ppv but to say that every show sucked this means that you dislike the company

[TeamExtremeMember8]

That's not what I'm saying.Like I'm fan of both WWE and TNA but I watch WWE every week to be dissapointed.Just because I'm dissapointed every week doesn't mean I dislike it just tired of it being stale.But not SmackDown.

[CaptainPhenomenal]

ok I GET IT
