Seriously, they were in a big arena? It wasn't five hundred people in a five thousand seat arena?

And way to go TNA winning the 2012 Gooker! At least you beat the WWE at something! If only it wasn't for sucking more than they did. But damnit, WE WON!

TNA recorded a months worth of Impact shows during their UK tour last week. Yes, they do fill up arenas in the UK and are more popular there than the WWE is over there. I guess fans over there like good wrestling, storylines with a point, interesting characters and are tired of getting their intelligence insulted by Vince on a regular basis. Oh yeah, TNA is also TV14 so you don't have to worry about any kiddy crap all the time.

Starting in March, TNA will permanently be taking Impact on the road every week. The first stop is in Chicago. It only took them ten years but they finally got their heads out of their asses and realise that they need to take their major program on the road.

Hopefully, over the next couple years they can expand enough to give the WWE some serious competition. The only way Vince is gonna change anything is if he gets a swift kick in the ass from the competition like WCW did in 1996.

He has a real hip injury that requires surgery. That F5 and and injury they said he has is a work to get him off tv so he can have his surgery.

Last time I saw TNA, there were about 500 people in an 8,000 seat arena.

If they're gonna take this on the road permanently, they need to scale back to, at most, 2,500 seat theaters.

If they keep booking major arenas week after week, I give them a year, two at most, before they're bankrupt.

I was really bored last night and ended up watching a little bit of Smackdown. It's gotten better, since I used to watch it at least.

I've never been too big on Del Rio, but the last few matches I've watched... damn, he can really put on an amazing match. I hope he goes far, he seems to be one of the few that WWE seems to be doing something right with (which sadly isn't saying much, )

Jack SWAGgger has stepped it up quite a bit too. I used to hate him, but now he just has so much more aggression and so much more energy, or it seems like it at least. I can see him being either a super Heel or a super Face, and not be as annoying as John Cena.

We are witnessing the SWAGpocalypse

What happened on RAW? I got caught up watching "two best friends play..." and didn't care to watch Monday Night Cena.
