Hollywood Cibernetico Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Just got around to watching Spud' promo in full....love that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooseCannon Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 My current best example of 'what the fuck, TNA' is that you have this little dude named Rockstar Spud who is GREAT at generated heat and you keep putting him in the ring. Let him keep being a little bitch until getting to put your hands on him is a BIG DEAL. Nah, first you establish that he is a little bitch who can't back up his words in the ring, then you stick a title on him and make him a chickenshit who is good at avoiding a fight, so that when someone finally gets him in the ring for a fair match, it is a big deal. Of course, this being TNA, they would do that, then have Spud go over clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He talks shit and lets the big guy do all the work, tags himself in when their opponents are dead for the pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 If anything, Bobby Lashley as a heel could use Spud as a mouth piece/manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianS81177 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 It was nice to see Lashley do something in TNA other than come out and point at the ring. I really don't get what anyone sees in EC3. His promo was shit, and his ring work is nothing special. I have to admit that was really the first time I've seen much of Spud (Dixie's face is an automatic cue to fast forward to me), and I have to admit the little dude was funny. Abyss is way too fat and broken down. I think this was the first time I've seen Sanada and Tigre Uno (I don't watch much puro or lucha) and I liked both. Shame that they'll be wasted by Russo.

Patrick B. Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Always had a soft spot for Bateman when he was on NXT3...I think he's more in his element as a goofy face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that they'll be wasted by Russo. I'm not sure how he would have anything to do with it seeing that he hasn't been employed with the company for about two years.

If recent reports are anything to believe, Russo is back with TNA. Whether that's as a consultant or what is unknown, but he definitely has his hands on this product (again, if you believe the reports). Samuel Shaw is amazing and this is what TNA should have been doing with their Gut Check guys/gals from the start. So much potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I haven't even watched any TNA for months, but just from reading the results it's pretty obvious Russo has a hand in the (over-) booking, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 TNA was just as overbooked when Russo wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Shaw is my favorite of all the new characters they have been giving screen time to lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooker Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 So, every time they go back to the Impact Zone, me and the friend I watch wrestling with are obsessed with the audience and the little stories within the story. One of the amazing (read: horrible) ones was that, from the perspective of the hard camera, to the left of the screen there were these blonde college (high school?) girls, and the mobile cameraman on the right side, I swear to God, was just standing in front of them with the camera facing them for, no shit, half the show. I tried looking through MGFanJay's always appreciated screencaps for an example, but I the only one I could find the camera guy was basically obscured by Magnus and Kane. But it was just audacious and gross. Otherwise, loved this show, lack of Aries notwithstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamal Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Glad to see Brittney finally debut. She's been great in SHINE and WOW. So, glad to see her get this kind of exposure. It was cool to see Angelina Love back but I agree that the segment dragged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
