Yes it’s Saturday, I have once again changed my mind about posting on certain days, so the sky is the limit from now on…TNA Once again someone has beat me to the punch in the rundown of the TNA results from this past Thursday, so I won’t waste the time going over it again. There are a few things I will bring up though; For one the reintroduction of Shane Douglas into the fold of the TNA. If he fumbles the ball on this go around he’ll be finished completely as far as pro wrestling is concerned-so to him I say, “Keep your nose clean and don’t mess it up for yourself.” It seems so far they know what they will be doing with him. Raven is back with Stevie, and one other woman wrestler returned to pro wrestling: Victoria (still can’t believe the WWE would let a talent like her get away-but as everyone knows, they are idiots.) A.J. Styles will still impress me no matter what match he is in. If he ever goes to the WWE, that would be the biggest mistake he could ever make. Lets hope he stays in TNA for a long time to come. Sting is now the head of MEM. Will this lead to bigger and better things? Or will this lead to its downfall? Did I see a real dejected Kurt Angle? Maybe this will lead to something different then what we have been seeing lately. Its been good so far, I can’t imagine what’s coming. Well, we know what it is because they have taped 4 weeks of shows so we know it will be better then what the other federation is giving us live on Mondays. Kip James seems to be a joke. I imagine anytime on television for the guy is good exposure no matter what happens. Suicide is probably hands down one of the best in the federation…tell me if I am wrong and why. Otherwise, I will say this for a long time. Samoa Joe’s Nation of Violence, is it his idea? By ordered does this mean the rumored return of Taz down the line and will he be joining him soon in this Nation? If it’s a Nation, where are the other people that should be part of it? Will there be others to make it a “Nation?” Is this a good thing or what, I’m kinda confused especially when Joe seems to have conflicts with AJ who is definitely a face. Seems as if Joe is doing an Attitude Era kinda thing right now. He’s neither good, nor bad. I like it. Team 3D vs. Beer Money Inc. at Slammiversary. I for one can’t wait for it to happen. The tag teams in TNA will always be better then what they have in the WWE right now. I’m glad they’re putting forth the effort to show the fans that they care about this division and are giving them a lot of time for us all to enjoy them. (unlike WWE’s joke they have us witnessing at present time-Goldust and Hornswoggle??, ugh…..) WWE As you are quite aware, Ken Kennedy was let go by WWE, am I surprised? Not in the least bit. Kennedy was so injury prone that he spent more time on the sidelines then he did in the game. He was almost pushed to main event status when he was going to be revealed as the storyline illegitimate son of Vince’s. But he got suspended due to failing the wellness policy. Then when he returned he injured himself. He returned again and after not so long was gone again due to injury. (although he was gone for awhile to film that movie as well) I don’t blame the WWE for letting this lame horse go. He was a detriment to the federation and a non producer, so I say to you Mr. “Kenneth C. Anderson” Kennedy, good luck in you future career, wherever that may be. Would TNA take him? I bet they would if he could guarantee he wouldn’t get injured once he would start working there. Don’t do it TNA, just don’t do it!! 3.2 Raw rating for Monday May 25th…you have to admit this was not what Vince was aiming for when he wanted to put down E. Stan Kroenke at the beginning of the show. But then who really cares about that. Vince wasted 20 minutes of the show to do this and as a fan I thought it was ridiculous and uncalled for. If you want to increase ratings, give the fans what they want, no what you want you idiot McMahon. Oh I forgot, he’s been doing that for the last umpteen months and even years. Besides ever since WCW folded, the competition is no longer there so the push for better programming isn’t there. He thinks he has it made so whatever he puts on television people will watch. Now’s the time for TNA to step up and see if they have what it takes to beat this egomaniac at his own game. I hope they do because I for one am getting sick of what McMahon is putting out there. I watched too much last Monday because I was in the mindset that the show was going to be worth watching, boy was I wrong. Next time I will have to tape the darn thing and fast-forward through it so my precious spring warmth isn’t wasting being inside witnessing this drivel. I had brought up the fact that you won’t be seeing Shawn Michaels for quite awhile in a previous article. Well, it turns out that you probably won’t be seeing him until at least the end of the year. He wants to spend his free time with his kids. I can appreciate that in a father. Anyone that has the opportunity to do that I would say go for it. Your kids are only young once and if you don’t take time out for them, you will regret it. So HBK, take all the time you need. That’s my 3 cents worth, til next time….
