Latest PPV and weekly show discussion thread

@DrX25: if that is true that is awesome, there needs to be some tension and Kaityln would make a great heel

@DrX25: I'm torn here. While this will most certainly mean more TV time for Kaitlyn, breaking up my favorite women's tag team makes me sad. But what does this mean for AJ? I guess she's doing this whole romance angle with Daniel Bryan now and as adorable as that is, I'd like to see her doing more.

@Milkman: Well, from what I understand, Bryan was only used to progress the Rhodes/Booker T angle and AJ was only featured in the match, so maybe they forgot? But I suppose AJ will eventually have a match/series of matches with Kaitlyn and join forces with the Barbie dolls (as the odd diva out) and I guess more TV time or possible PPV bonuses are great but if I have to endure more of Kelly Kelly's incessant chanting of "COME ON AJ!", I think I will make myself deaf.

@Demoskinos: I'm not 100% sure either way (I read some stuff that suggests that he did wear green once but it is a meme, so take it for what it's worth).

so i feel like Bryan might cash in at TLC becasue and set up a match a RR or He will fail to cash it in and set a WM rematch.

If you actually knew anything about Punk you would know he's not homophobic. He is incredibly pro gay rights.

I still want as much as I know it isn't. The It Begins promos to be Mordecai. Have Kane return, Undertaker return, and Mordecai return, and have that feud that was teased all those years ago.

@CL60: Yes and Braden Walker will return.

Chickbusters live again!

@lord_canti: Saw it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was cut in the international edition but stayed on the Syfy feed (remember the massive difference between the US/Canada and international version of Orton busting up Rhodes). Also, that version has the Aksana/Rhodes vs Booker T match announcement segment but it starts with Rhodes barging in to see him.

@Milkman: I'm going to guess that it won't be for long.

it seems that they edited Kaitlyn heel turn , so maybe they are going b ack on it. that or the segmaent lasted more than 1 minute.

Link with video

Even though I knew that was coming, I couldn't help but excited for the end as the clock was running out on Orton.

From watching the video they probably edited it out because it was shit. All she did was sort of... walk over to Beth and Natalya. That's hardly thrilling stuff.

@GunslingerPanda: I'm willing to bet that a writer got yelled at for writing that segment but I will say that AJ did show some great emotion and it was probably more impactful that just getting laid out by Kaitlyn. (Maybe the segment got thrown out because Rhodes was on commentary and they were focusing too much/not enough on the divas?)

@Tuggah: I definitely got excited even though I knew Orton was winning (a sign of good storytelling).

so any one have any idea of who this new vignette is? a prophet coming on the 2nd day of 2012. the undertaker? wouldent be the first time hes used creepy children in a promo

@lord_canti: Most people say it will be Chris Jericho (Probably as a heel to face CM Punk at Mania) because January 2nd is a bit early to bulid up to a Taker match in Miami.

@Milkman: Now the dirtsheets are saying that the Chickbusters as a whole will join the DoD or be (yet) another heel tag team. Link here

@DrX25: I'd be cool with that. Though heel AJ seems like of weird to me. She's so cute and tiny! How could she be bad?

@Milkman: She actually had a heel run from July 2010 to May 2011 in FCW but I don't see her fitting in with the DoD (5'2" and 107 lb. vs 5'5/7" and 135 to 150 lb.)

Oh hey, guys. There's a TNA PPV tonight.

Oh...no one cares? Yeah, thought so.

@Milkman: What's funny is that there are more people who are the half empty Smackdown than people who will order ANY TNA PPV.

Also, how bad will the Slammy Awards be? (And TurboMan, you better stay true to your word and wear a tuxedo).

"We Want Ryder" chants during the TV title match. The only wrestler that's over in two wrestling promotions at once.

@Milkman: Well, Robbie E is a Jersey Shore ripoff and Jersey Shore is a My New Haircut (What Ryder based his gimmick on) ripoff, so Robbie E is a Ryder ripoff.

@DrX25: It won't be a full tuxedo, but I'll be there in a shirt & tie.

Bought some poster board today... trying to figure out what to write on it.

@TurboMan: "Tortilla + Steak + Ketchup = Ratings" ? (As long as there's no cursing, references to TNA, non WWE twitters, or references to "Marks" you'll be fine).

Wow, the Iron Man match ended in a 3-3 tie and instead of overtime...it just ended. That was it.

Another satisfying end to a TNA PPV!

@Milkman: Don't tell me you actually paid for a TNA PPV.

God no. Had a stream on my laptop while I watched the Sunday night football game.

There was nothing really offensively horrible. But it was just so goddamn boring. No titles changed hands. No storylines were advanced. Even the Hardy-Jarrett cage match which was suppose to result in one of them getting fired, ended with a cop-out "we'll find out next week on Impact!"

Ok.. here's the sign situation so far. Me and my friend have come up with:

"John Cena Is A Poopy Head"

"Kelly Kelly 3:16"

"I'm Trending On Twitter Right Now"

"Wut Da Hale !?"

@TurboMan: Those are pretty good. Where are your seats? Are you gonna be easy to see on TV?

i used to care more about tna but its become just boring there not making big mistakes like wwe but there just doing nothing if it wasnt for the older wrestlers i care about i wouldent watch it

also @TurboMan: put "we want robbie E" on it :P

Put an@ lagana on your sign

I'll be in the right corner of where the camera usually points

I'm just going to leave this soundboard here.

Aw yeah, 3 hour RAW/Slammy award show tonight.

We got a chat open for the show?

This should work.

Holy fuck balls, that was amazing.

Kane moment was pretty cool but most of that show was downright painful.

Any TurboMan sitings? I know I was in there atleast once

No, sorry, didn't catch you. How was the show live? Personally, I found the show largely insufferable but maybe it was one of those "you had to be there" things.

I was in a pretty good section, and I yelled throughout the show a lot. I've watched the show on youtube, and I think I hear myself in a couple of spots... my "John Cena is a Poopy Face" poster got a ton of attention, and was mentioned in the "show us your signs" segment during comercial. The boo's were silenced during Snooki winning and were replaced with cheers.

The first hour of the show was INSUFFERABLE. The JR segment was hard to watch, but we got excited to see JR none-the less. In my section, Road Dogg got one of the biggest pops of the night. The Kane moment at the end was a great moment and I freaked the hell out when it happened. The Lauranitis vignette had me rolling. Rock and Randy Ortan got the biggest pops, booing Cena was fun.

There was an INSANELY long gap in between matches, and during one of the commercial breaks in the beginning of the second hour, our section succesfully got a "We Want Wrestling" chant going throughout the entire Arena. There was a Y2J chant after the video came up.

And I was on TV at least once. It features armpit sweat.

They finally fixed Kane's music, and that look is the best he's had since before he switched to the half mask and started doing spinaroonis. I'm sure they'll do the start-n-stop push with him just like they always do with him, Mark Henry, and Big Show...but at least for now, all is well.

...almost wonder if the timing for this is hinting at a Undertaker vs. Kane 3.0 at Mania for what I assume would be Undertaker's last match. It has now been a longer period of time than their first two (14 & 20 as opposed to 20 & 28). Obviously the match quality would be down significantly from the past 3 years, but I suppose it would be appropriate from a character perspective, and during their last feud Kane basically kicked the shit out of him 3 matches in a row. No one wants to see Undertaker lose at Mania at this point so that would be a way to get in a match that would have an obvious Undertaker win, but still have the match itself mean something as long as they do a decent buildup.

New Kane mask? Great

New Kane attire... meh

i thought this last night can anyone confirm that it is the same guy behind the mask? i think he looks too in shape and his chins a little too big

yeah, he looked super in shape last night. When I was there for it, a group of people thought it was Undertaker. When I calmly tried to explain that Undertaker had tattoos all over his body, but that didn't convince them.

Yeah, the parts of his face that were unmasked, especially his chin, looked bizarrely like Taker but it doesn't make sense for him to be running around as Kane. Plus, tattoos.

yea that moment was cool, he looked like the rocketeer till he took his mask off

It looked nothing like Taker.. >.> It was clearly Glenn Jacobs.
