TNA do the national stadium in Dublin ever year , only 2,500 so it's pretty perfect to go to nice and cosy.Last time I went to WWE was in the RDS and there's like 30,000 too big.

exactly, wrestling like boxing needs that intimate atmosphere.
going to them big shows you need to get ringside seats for a good view and they cost $$$.

you watching TNA this year :devilehh:

Lord7God · Jan 12, 2013

I'm watching but I'm not going to show this year , ill go to the WWE whatever they name it this time haven't went since 08 to WWE .
I'd usually go with my brother even though he isn't a big fan anymore , he can't this year so I just skipped it.
I coulda asked someone but wrestling is frowned upon so I didn't bother.

Manchester, they are taping 2 ep's of impact.
I'm tempted to go to the london tapeings too but will probably only have the cheap seats available. I'll decide tommorow if I wanna go to both.

tna is taping 4 eps of impact in the uk 2 in Manchester and 2 in London.

When's the date?

yeah the card is not good.
this felt like a filler ppv but now that TNA is only doing 4 ppv's a year this is all of a sudden a big one :fp:

as long as king wins i don't care, BVD is killing the division and york is trying to do these acrobatic moves but the dude is in slow motion.

Don't forget the signboard :devilehh:

I haven't

don't think i'm on the camera side but I'll hold something up anyway.

damn · Jan 13, 2013

if you haven't already heard tna is changing it's ppv model and only doing 4 big ppv's (genesis, lockdown, slammiversary and the biggest one bound for glory)

so they should have enough time to build these ppv's with fueds lasting 3-4 months before a payoff. :eek:

in addition to that they are doing 7 "one night only" gimmick ppv's (no storyline)
they have taped the first two shows X-Travaganza and Joker's Wild Tag Team Special to air in 3 and 4 months.

the X-Travaganza ppv has aries vs joe

The themes for the "One Night Only" PPVs will be,

- TNA X-Travaganza, featuring the stars of the X-Division (airing in April, taping 1/13).

- TNA Joker's Wild Tag Team Special, featuring enemies teaming and a Battle Royal final (airing in May, taping 1/13)

- TNA Hardcore Justice 2 - ECW reunion style "hardcore" show featuring hardcore stipulation matches bringing in ECW talents.

- TNA "10 Reunion" - Stars from the early days of TNA battling inside a Six-Sided ring.

- TNA Knockouts Knockdown - One night Knockout tournament with the first round being all stipulation matches and the final four in a "test of their stamina" to see who the final victor is.

- TNA International Incident - One night tournament featuring talent from " United States, India, Mexico, Ireland, Canada, Germany,
Japan & the UK" with the winner earning a TNA title shot.

- TNA X-Division World Cup Tournament - four teams of X-Division wrestlers in a one night tournament featuring singles, tag, six man and eight man tag bouts.

- TNA World Cup of Wrestling - Four teams, each captained by a TNA wrestler featuring a Heavyweight wrestler, a tag team and an X-Division wrestler battling in singles, tag and stipulation bouts. The finale will be a "two ring, triple chance Battle Royal."

i really like the internet shows tna makes.

before the bell is very cool.
impact post show is always entertaining with bad influance and the robbie's talking smack.
and spin cycle is pure gold (srsly check it out on youtube, it's like a half-shoot round table discussion)

-------

kaz will probobly call some one out at the start of the ppv like he has done before :proud:

when damn gets all serious about TNA, it brings a smile to my face :lol:

- TNA Hardcore Justice 2 - ECW reunion style "hardcore" show featuring hardcore stipulation matches bringing in ECW talents.

Zero confidence on this one, first one was shit.

it won't have much ECW talant, will just be like hardcore justice with sabu, rhino and some indy guys thrown in with some tna guys.
basically a botchamania ppv :proud:

so I was reading posts that make fun of how tna were challenging raw and got their ass shipped to thursday nights

apparently their ratings were averaging 0.7-0.9 to raw's 5-6 :lol:

I still have a little hope that this is all part of a very, very elaborate prank.

yeah they got bent over :lol:

they weren't ready to go head to head with raw but spike wanted to start the monday night wars which was the catalyst for the last wrestling boom.

your number was for the premiers which had hogan back in TNA and i think hart back in wwe.
tna does about 1-1.4 rating to raw's 2-3 rating (without the rock) right now.

basically tna is equivalent to smackdown.

i'm not serious......maybe you guys are reading my posts with the wrong voice in your heads

no prank, damn is back into wrestling 4-life/couple of years :fp:

wwe is the mainstreamist alternative to TNA

Sage said:

i'll email the suggestion to dixie carter.

TNA to me is like talking about italian football to EPL morons, most people just believe what sky (or the WWE) tells them.

put simply if it was just the WWE and no real competition then I wouldn't be watching wrestling.

jammin · Jan 13, 2013

What exactly did TNA have over the Dubyew Dubyew Eee when you first started watching? As in, what was the reason why you preferred TNA?

Sage · Jan 13, 2013

x-division.
nearly everyone in tna that I like is or was an x division wrestler.

the same thing that made me a fan of WCW.
inbetween all the fuckerys and lame mainevent matches you had benoit, malenko, eddie guerrero, ray mysterio, juventud guerrera, chris jericho, kidman, jushin thunder liger, ultimo dragon and the luchadores tearing up the show.

the one thing vince never had.

derpu · Jan 13, 2013
