Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 The Asexual Division? Is that one of Billy Corgan's new socially progressive ideas for TNA? I think it would be the AseXual Division. The Morrissey Memorial championship belt. 1
BEN! Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Still no roster though, right? http://globalforcewrestling.com/roster/ Here's the updated version: DATABASE_ERROR_ REBOOTING_ DATABASE_UPDATING_ REBOOTING_ 2
nate Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 The joke roster is going to be infinitely more interesting than the real one, isn't it?
Web Conn Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I'm hoping that Bischoff's involvement is strictly on the television production side and not on the creative side. I dont want WWE Lite I want something completely different. Itss most likely blind optimism on my part but I hope GFW becomes something more than a punchline. EDIT: Some GFW NEWZ http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/news/backstage-gfw-news-notes-plans-for-touring-rumored-talent-revealed-more Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter According to sources, Jeff Jarrett’s Global Force Wrestling is starting to reach out to talent. Scott D’Amore and Sonjay Dutt are working with Jarrett in the office, and they have offered some talent the possibility of 39 dates. At this time, the company has noted they’ve got 12 dates confirmed. The promotion is talking with a lot of talent, including Roderick Strong (who works ROH dates but has no contract at this time), Team 3-D, Shelton Benjamin and Chris Masters. The feeling is that who ever ends up with the long-term relationship with New Japan Pro Wrestling will be in position to sign more talent. ROH has been trying to lock up key talent, and part of the allure of signing with ROH right now is the strong relationship with New Japan.
MGFanJay Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I can't wait for Shelton to win the GFW Baseball Tour secondary title.
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 There was also a note in the Observer that an unspecified wrestler who TNA was behind on paying threatened to jump to Jarrett if he wasn't paid. They promptly paid him. I think we will end up seeing some current TNA guys who don't get paid on time show up eventually.
cool arrow Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 So, we know now that Jim Cornette is involved in some capacity. Anyone want to start a pool on how long it takes him to quit/burn his bridges?
Web Conn Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 I'm thinking its an ex-WWE guy who stormed into the TNA offices, if a homegrown talent had down that they would have shown him the door ala Styles and Joe. More Newz: http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/news/jim-cornette-to-work-with-gfw-jeff-jarrett-to-make-some-big-announcements-more-news There will be a lot of details announced for the July 24th TV tapings this week. Jim Cornette announced on his podcast this week that he will be taking part in the June 12th and 13th Global Force Wrestling “Grand Slam Tour” events in Jackson and Knoxville, Tennessee. Tonight, Jeff Jarrett will be throwing out the first pitch at the Mississippi Braves Minor-League Baseball Game. GFW will run that venue on June 20th. On Saturday, Jarrett will be in Jackson, Tennessee at the Jackson Generals game.
nate Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 So ... the chances may very well be that TNA's road to redoing the "Monday Night War" fervor will be ... to feud with Global Force Wrestling. Wow.
The Nature Boy Posted May 1, 2015 Author Posted May 1, 2015 It's TNA, they're probably still using Windows 95. And only then it's because the WWE finally threw out their old computers and someone went dumpster diving at Titan Tower. 3
(BP) Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 So they're behind on payroll because their computers are busy loading Encarta? I buy it. 2
Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 So, we know now that Jim Cornette is involved in some capacity. Anyone want to start a pool on how long it takes him to quit/burn his bridges? Why do people still think Jim Cornette has anything to offer besides outdated ideas? Hiring him at this point really isn't any better than hiring Vince Russo. 2
The Nature Boy Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 It's weird to me that we haven't had many big name wrestling bookers emerge in the past 15 years. I'm also surprised that TNA or GFW haven't hired Gabe Sapolsky. When you look at the stars that came out of ROH during his tenure (Punk, Bryan and Rollins in particular), you'd think that he'd be able to use that to get himself a good gig.
CrazyMax46 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Gabe isn't exactly a people person. I know you read this forum Gabe. You too Quack.
Shawn411 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I disagree with you guys about Cornette. He would make a great commentator or manager.
Web Conn Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I think Gabe is happy booking Evolve/FIP/DGUSA I can't Imagine he'd want to book TNA. He seems like a my way or the highway type of guy, I couldnt see him having to answer to Dixie going well. IDK maybe him and Jarrett could work out some sort of talent exchange,
The Nature Boy Posted May 4, 2015 Author Posted May 4, 2015 Who the fuck is the special guest? With the hype that GFW is putting into this roster reveal, you'd almost expect CM Punk to walk out. I know he won't, mind you but there is literally no available talent worth all of this hype and secrecy.
nofuture Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Who the fuck is the special guest? "What is the database doing at the GFW Globatorium?" 2
Web Conn Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 anyone know wht time it is I have class in the afternoon but if i can make it i will definitely go.
Curt McGirt Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 If you go, we want a ROAD REPORT! Or I do, anyway. 1
BrianS81177 Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 "We know who that CPU is!" They've signed the anonymous Raw GM?
