    TNA World Champion Sting: Who plays the foil?

    1) Matt Hardy or Abyss if heels, Anderson if a face TNA is short on top heels, and they wouldn't want to turn RVD or Anderson heel, as they'd need an over face to challenge for the title back. Abyss and Matt are now Immortal's most prominent guys since Jeff got kinda-suspended (especially with...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    Again, I agree with all of this. It's lose-lose for TNA. Are you a company that screws the hardcore fans - the PPV buyers? (again though, Hogan has repeated history here...) or are you a company that puts an addict on a pedestal and risks the health of its employees? Only way out is a series...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    I pretty much agree with all of this. The only reason I would be impressed if it was a work was due to the levels of legit hate (not Vickie or Cole manufactured hate) for a wrestler not seen since people believed it was real, which in today's environment would be an impressive feat. The fact...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    *sigh* It's called MARKETING. How many people do you think were even aware TNA had an on-demand service before now? If even 5% of people who sign up for the free 6 months (which will cost TNA nothing but slightly increased server fees seeing as they weren't paying subscribers anyway) like the...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    Again, i'm just playing devil's advocate here, but if he isn't in reality "a drugged up, irresponsible human being who shouldn't have been let out to wrestle", then they've done a masterwork in making you believe that. The fact they've completely fucked up the goal (to profit from that) is not...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    Well, my post basically agrees with your opinion. As I said, this doesn't translate into viewership so is a failure if it is a work, and even saying that, I don't believe at all it is a work. The only reason i'd believe it could possibly be a work is not to preserve any credibility, but due to...

    What in the world is Sting wearing?

    It's supposed to be Kabuki inspired, like his facepaint. I think it's great, and as mentioned before, an overdue change seeing as his previous gear was ripped off from a film released in 1994...

    What if the Jeff Hardy Situation is Just a Work?

    First of all, let me say I am not a fan of kayfabe out of the ring. I believe the story and drama should be kept on the shows and PPVs, but out the ring and in interviews, the wrestlers should not work the audience and should behave as regular working actors. However... I know a lot of people...

    Would you watch The Undertaker - The Movie?

    (apologies if this is the wrong section, but i'm not sure if he's a RAW guy now or not) I was inspired by the new Johnny Cash entrance song he uses now, which IMO perfectly suits the character, and wondered why, with the huge number of poorly written and generic films the WWE churns out, why...

    Should Regal get a big send-off?

    One thing I should state about Regal however is that regardless of his current level on the card, he's completely solid and reliable in every area. Unlike other bottom carders, he can lose and make the winner look like they've achieved something in the process. He can put on a solid match with...

    Should Regal get a big send-off?

    Like has been said many times before, you don't need to be a World Champion to have a great career, so making the comparison that if former world champs never got one he shouldn't is wrong. Khali was a world champ. Piper never was. Need any more examples? Sure Regal is not at the level of...

    Should Regal get a big send-off?

    Gorgeous George was hardly built like a monster. In fact nobody was back in those days, and unless you're going to get a non-wrestling actor to play him, I think Regal is your best bet as long as he could manage the accent, as he does the snooty heel down to a tee. There's nobody else currently...

    Should Regal get a big send-off?

    Thanks for the good replies so far! In regards to bigger stars such as Macho Man not getting a send off, i'd argue that's because they left for more political reasons, and never actually retired from the ring when leaving WWE. You don't want to give someone a big farewell only for them to end...

    Should Regal get a big send-off?

    On the recent European tour, William Regal alluded to an upcoming retirement by telling the fans this would likely be his last overseas appearence. Now as someone completely buried in the lowercard shuffle, you'd imagine a talent in that position would just be quietly 'future endeavored' when...

    Know who the Undertaker should lose the streak to?

    I should state that I mean the new character should have a different name and not an identical look, but keep the most popular traits. In the same way Jack Swagger is essentially playing Kurt Angle but with a different spin on it. Get someone to be a modern Undertaker, but obviously don't try...
