Patrick B. Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 They could buy NWA Anarchy and show that weekly for a lot less money I imagine... Ironic due to formerly-NWA Anarchy actually now being up for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Borash and Tenay (on Explosion last year) or Borash and Taz (on Explosion for about two weeks last year) are both better than Tenay and Taz. But Borash and Spud (on Explosion last month) are better than either. In other news, I'm the only one on the board who watches Explosion. And even then, I haven't watched it since like July. *raises hand* Admittedly, I usually only watch the exclusive match... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 They took out the Spin Cycle (and The List... despite Challenge TV specifically saying to them, change anything you want about the show, but DO NOT CHANGE THE LIST) and turned it into an Impact recap show. Despite the fact that the Impact recaps were already showing on Impact the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgi86 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 What was "the List?" A fun little segment hosted by Robbie E where the guest of the week answers questions in order to make it on Robbie's "VIP list". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 XPlosion has some random gems; they had Roode-Magnus a few weeks ago and this week's episode has a 12-minute Hardys vs. MVP/King match that includes a Willow cameo. It was clearly recorded a few months ago as Spud is still a heel on commentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 So apparently Josh Matthews is going to be the PBP guy. Sadly Taz is still on color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Cibernetico Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I don't know why these companies have a hard on for Taz being in the booth. I can understand WWE wanting to give him a shot, but he should have been on commentary for no more than 3 years and then promptly removed. TNA replaced DON WEST with Taz. Its like replacing a Phantom with a Geo Metro. How does this guy continue to be terrible at his job for over a decade and still remain employed despite all of the cuts happening around him? How? I really don't get it. There is NO CASE that can be made for Taz staying on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 What was "the List?" Back when Robbie E was with Rob Terry, and he was endlessly telling people they couldn't do things because they weren't on the list... they spun it into an actual segment where he said who was on the list that week. And the head of Challenge TV thought it was really funny (it was), and told Borash to never stop doing it. And then they stopped doing it, months before the Robbies split.

Jerry Hattrick Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 People have been asking what should TNA be renamed. Inspired by the Omnibus thread. Cause it's the dumbest fuckin move since the bearhug. How is a bearhug dumb? You're literally crushing the life out of someone. Hulk Hogan's greatest weakness.

jstout Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I always thought Taz was a pretty good promo, but they used him as a heel manager for what, three weeks? Actually, maybe longer, wasn't he a manager type for that biker gang whose name I can't think of? Any TNA without an annoucing team of the Hog and Don West and Cody Deaner in the mix isn't worth watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk_Sabbath Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 If TNA is just going to tape only at the Manhattan Center, I wouldn't be opposed to them being like, New York Championship Wrestling (NYCW). Sure, it sounds regional, but it's a pretty high profile region we're talking here. It's not like they'd be Waukesha Championship Wrestling (hey, WCW again). I also don't understand what's wrong with Impact Wrestling, Impact Pro Wrestling, Impact Championship Wrestling, Impact Wrestling Federation, or any variation thereof. Call it literally anything other than TNA. It's such a shit name and probably has more to do with their lack of success than most people realize. If I'm a suburban ass soccer mom, and WWE is consistently putting out a PG product that my kid enjoys, and said kid then asks if we can watch something called TNA on Spike? I'm like, "No way little dude, that show's for grown men who like grown men things" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Yeah - they did a Best of their Thanksgiving shows Which was basically "Here are all the turkey suit matches" The rest of the time was Borash trying to get people to shop TNA and their "black Friday" deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I had no idea TNA had a new TV deal until just now. Do we all have to bow down to the insane prognostication of E090 now? (That was his name, right?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
