"Air is for closers!"

Who was the announcer who said "the Pitbulls have been teaming for years, but that doesn't compare to the Ascension's unspoken chemistry"? Was that Riley? Because that was fucking awful.

Let's all take a moment to remember that we are sort of in the middle of the one-year anniversary of the clumsiest, blandest, and most half-hearted face turn in history. You could be talking about any number of face turns over the past year, really.

"Hey, that's my chicken suit!"

No, but I'll definitely take more segments as good as Christian trying to cut weight in Kurt Angle's chicken suit.

What were you going to say if you got through to him?

In Bischoff's defense, TNA was pretty much a lost cause by the time he got there.

Imagine how crazy she'll get when Paige gets called up. Because you know Punk is gonna try to hook up with her at some point. It's inevitable.

True, and you can probably add Edge retiring suddenly to the list of things that needed to happen in order for Christian to get the belt.

I guess there's a rumor going around that somehow Triple H is going to end up with the belts at the end of the night. I think I would prefer that to Orton winning.

Maybe he just wanted to rub his balls in Batista's face.

It's a moot point because there's no way AJ gets signed. They're not hiring a guy in his mid-30s that can't cut a promo and hasn't drawn money for anyone more relevant than TNA.

That picture would have made for the greatest Survivor Series match EVER.

I'm not sure that's much of a gamble since he's probably done wrestling when his WWE career is up.But if he wanted to use the name for other projects/etc. when he's retired, he'll still have to be in the company in some capacity. You'll notice Austin doesn't refer to himself as Stone Cold on his podcast.

So Booker T's promotion just announced that Michael Cole will also be at the show this Saturday.

Or just give him a name with the initials "AJ" and ignore the ugly tattoo. Y'all are overthinking this.

Imagine Goldberg jobbed to Hogan and fucked off? Or Batista lost to Triple H and fucked off? Ryback wasn't remotely as over as either guy. He wasn't booked remotely as well as either guy, but he was over and he could have been a big star.If they had protected him and given him better booking, Ryback absolutely could have been a big star. So what if he has a bad attitude, is super reckless, and has to be led through his matches. I just described Goldberg, too. And he had the extra handicap of working in WCW. It can be done.

There is a very good chance that Sting may end his career in TNA. That's a shame.

No they didn't. He left before they had a chance to do anything with him. TNA had him for years and never did anything meaningful with him.

They'd have to simplify their wrestling style a lot, wouldn't they? No more working matches like they were in a video game.

Stevie Ray was the work horse on that team. Think about that for a second. Speaking of Stevie Ray, I'm going to Booker T's promotion's show this Saturday, and apparently Stevie is going to be making an appearance. I'm way more excited about that than I should be.

You throw a guy the size of Andre into the seventh row and you're bound to be a little sore the next day, brother.

Did you see the pop Duggan got the last time he was in the Royal Rumble a couple of years ago? It was MASSIVE. Don't underestimate the power of nostalgia.

For fuck's sake, people actually think Punk would bring up Austin beating Debra? You've got to be kidding me.
