hammerva Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Jim Mitchell doing the induction for Abyss in the Hall of Fame is obvious and is should be funny as hell. They are showing it on Twitch so if you miss it live chances you have a couple hundred more chances to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Time to change to a more gritty bare bones mma shoot style weed culture production and pitch the show to Viceland. But in all actuality this has to suck for those who are in the office over at Impact. I wonder what the ratings are on Fight Network in Canada. Maybe it's time to restructure and focus more on touring Canada and featuring Canadian talent in more prominent roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thibs Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I mean this isn’t a surprise. The booking is boring and they’ve put zero effort into actually make the show must see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Rumours are starting to circulate that Aries won't be at the TV tapings and may be done with Impact (again). If it's a work, I wonder how comfortable Aries is with acknowledging himself to be the insecure flake we all know him to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'm going to go on a limb and say we're getting an Allie and Rosemary role reversal as they've been teasing with their Elseworlds thing on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Japan? Personally, I still think it's a work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self-publish a vegan cookbook or audition for Big Brother. Maybe cheer some kids up during the holidays by dressing up as one of Santa's elves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'll bet ROH since they need something that's not Bullet Club. He can feud with someone equally on his level, Jeff Cobb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have Aries beat Lethal for the title, then do a champion vs. champion feud with Cobb, with Cobb eventually winning the world title. * It's not like Delirious would come up with anything better. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee Bey Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/2018/10/identity-of-eli-drakes-original-opponent-at-bound-for-glory-646902/ Quote This past weekend, Impact Wrestling's Bound For Glory pay-per-view emanated from the Melrose Ballroom in Long Island City, NY. With Eli Drake throwing an open challenge, the fans expected to see a big name appear during the event, but it was James Ellsworth that made his way out, much to the bemusement of the live crowd. According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Impact Wrestling had to go with an alternative plan for Drake's opponent for Bound For Glory. It is being reported that Joey Janela was supposed to be Eli's opponent at the pay-per-view, and that the company had already planned a long-term program involving both the performers. However, Janela injured his knee last month during an independent event, and later revealed that he would be out of action "for a long while". Janela said that he completely tore and destroyed his PCL and MCL, an ACL sprain and several other issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Janela would have been a really good choice. Not to nitpick, but Janela isn't from New York either. He's from Asbury Park, NJ. Once I realized it wasn't going to be Jericho, I thought about MJF as a possibility since he's from Long Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 They should have gone with Arquette dead serious, think that would have went over better than Ellsworth. No matter who they went with I don’t think it would have went over. Everyone there had it in there minds it was gonna be Jericho and when it wasn’t and it would have been a long shot anyway they shit all over it.

AxB Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 So this 'Impact after dark' thing they're pitching is them putting a positive spin on getting moved out of primetime (in America), right? Because their start time on 5Spike (in the UK) is 11pm now. Are they planning on embracing it by going with more a blood and violence style than before? If you want to contrast with the competition being all family friendly PG clean, you want to go adults only NC17 dirty, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
