  1. What of note happened during the "Kip Frey era"? Being dead serious. I'm talking angles and matches wise. The Dangerous Alliance. it was basically the equivalent of WWE last year, with the SHIELD having amazing TV matches ever week, usually twice a week.
  2. A Young Buck, Scotty Riggs, Da Mountie Kick, WHAM!, Stunner
  3. You can't DDT a man wearing a hat.
  4. Tatanka, Scotty 2 Hotty, #498 on the 2013 PWI 500 Scotty Turner HOW the WORM TURNS
  5. RVD is just what TNA needs. To finally go out of business.
  6. I kind of like Corporate Kane since he reminds me of Bull from Night Court and that brings back fond nostalgic memories.
  7. For some reason I thought Kane had a hell of a lot more face/heel turns than he's actually had.
  8. I should have voted for Generation X just for matt frewer. Man.
  9. I'm not necessarily arguing that. I'm just curious if there are gamefaq boards or a tumblr equivalent or whatever the hell the kids use these days with a bunch of 22 year olds on them who wax poetic about the joys of season 21 or some such? "Man, the show was way better in 2009!" I've heard people say that about, let's say, Saturday Night Live, but not the Simpsons.
  10. There is happiness to be found in this world!
  11. Shane Williams Awesome Kong King Kong Bundy King Kong King Kong Bundy?
  12. I couldn't think of another Ian on short notice. This is hard, ok?
  13. RUSH. Ian Rotten. Frightmare! The RushIan Frightmare.
  14. I wish that what you just said existed and teamed with Jason and Leatherface in Japan.
  15. I like the Clara theory on a "crazy plot" level, but I think it's too messy. Of those, the least messy and the one with the least amount of cost in introducing or reintroducing things to new readers is the Master. I think I'd probably put "brand new character" up there as a huge possibility too though.
  16. The "The Doctor Is not your Boyfriend" thing was absolutely a shot at the female fanbase. That they harped on it so much hurt the episode. I actually expected it to blow up more than it did.
  17. I have a good friend, an old friend, who just started watching Who two or three years ago. Pretty much all she cares about is constantly revisiting the Rose/Doctor relationship. That's how she was introduced to the property. That's what related to her and appealed to her and I think she would have been much happier if that was the tone of the show permanently. She's liked episodes since but to a far lesser extent, and my impression is that she's a lot happier doing artwork of that specific topic for like-minded people who commission her than to watch and get invested in the current episodes. She also reads a lot of quasi-feminist interpretations of this stuff, but that's kind of beside the point. It's the former that i think of when I think of the tumblr crowd.
  18. They need the network to be a hit in the long run, but their money is so god damn steady that it's hard to find the corporate reasons to ever have a light put under their ass. Frankly, the network is perfect for them, because what it does is take out the middle man. What we learned with the round of TV negotiation is that they're always going to be seen as sub duck dynasty shite. Wrestling will be low-brow, low-sponsor, appealing to idiots TV forever. This is how it will be looked at. This is how it will be paid for. Maybe WWE thinks otherwise, maybe not, but they've set up a system where their fanbase can basically just give them their money, no matter what anyone in a suit thinks, and it's up to them to make that pay off.
