Announcement that will change the Industry as we know it

[Cboogie]

Thanks for clearing that stuff up

 

[footballfool89]

Im not i big fan of TNA, watched it a few times but im a devoted WWE fan. But this whole announcemt deal has interested me. I'm mainly interested to see who the announcer is just incase it is someone like Jerico or Beniot. As long as its not one of them im fine, if Benoit were to go, SD would be in even more trouble.

 

[djmalachi]

Dont worry, i wont be Beniot

 

[Randolph H]

I think I know whats going on... The Bagwell, Luger thing... The Russo thing... it was meant to throw us off... Goldberg is going to come out and challenge Jarrett at the premier of the New Impact or Show on Spike.

 

[djmalachi]

Dont think so... they keep drooping Sting's name. They say he's there tonight and they are right he's not schedule to be on the card...but I also think that's a smokescreen. I guess we'll just have to wait and see

 

[phaze029]

this doesnt make any sens, if you know wrestling you know vince russo and goldberg dont go together its obivous. its going to either be something great and something like primetime now that Panda energy is gonna throw the money at them which will make monday night wars II...something i have been waiting to see for a while...or that this announcment is going to bomb..

 

[sledge450]

The Announcer? Clearly Vince Russo! Its obvious, and a good way to get him back onto tv
As for the announcement
I think it has to be a wrestler, a big announcement wouldnt be that there will be a 2 hour slot, they are going to use the announcement as a ratings booster,and only a wrestler can do that
My guess? The NWO thing would be interesting,as scott hall/nash etc are all free (any coincidence lugor and baggwell are backstage?). Also,would explain the sudden halt in wwe interest for the faction.
Also,heres a list of the current free agents on the market

Hogan (unlikely,sicne hes just said he wants to work mania)
Brock Lesnar (my tip)
Kurt Angle (90 days aint up)
Goldberg (possible,but hopefully not...cant wait for those goldberg.monty brown matches)
Bret Hart (would be a shock,has said hed like to do summit with tna)
Y2J (To many projects at the moment)
Randy Savage
Austin (Wow)
Or
Could Tna be about to poach a dissatisfied wwe superstar? anything from a mid carder up would be a massive shock,and would show tnas pulling power. Likley candidates?

Benoit
Matt Hardy
Benjamin

Main one of those that i could see going is Benjamin see as WWE hasnt used him to hes full capacity, second would be Benoit, and last would be Hardy. Hardy is about a 0% chance of going, see as Jeff just came back and they currently are planning on a Hardy Boyz ruinion at Mania.

 

[Randolph H]

What ever they are doing... its working... I'am interested...

lol, same, and i hardly ever watch TNA.

 

[djmalachi]

All I have to say that this is the first TNA PPV I ordered so this better not be a let down. If so this will be the LAST TNA PPV I ever order

 

[Randolph H]

They are playing mind games... lol... I watch it once and awhile...

 

[sledge450]

its fascinating,and i actaully want to know...thank you tna,for brining the excitment back to pro wrestling!

I was going to order it... but I think I will wait until bound for glory if something interesting comes out of tonight... (I have never ordered TNA BEFORE and this is actually the first week that I am capable of ordering PPV).

TNA in itself is a great organization, but its gonne come crashing down sooner then later because all they do is pick up WWE's Old Talent. it;s not that i dont like seeing them, but this announcment better be big, like i said before, there has to be some type of moving to primetime to start another Monday night wars..it just seems to me like the right thing to do..because TNA is FAR FAR more entertaining then WWE. so this announcment could again make or break TNA and some of their fans.

 

[Moon Knight]

that's why i asked if it was possible, it's not my prediction, im just asking if it's possible

Wikipedia says
TNA was originally a member of the National Wrestling Alliance, with the company known as NWA-TNA, but withdrew from the NWA in 2004, in the process acquiring the rights to the NWA World Heavyweight Championship and NWA World Tag Team Championship until the year 2014.

what if they are rejoining TNA........or part of the announcement is they are going to start touring (doing house shows)


Really like i said, im just throwing stuff out there, i don't want it to be Kurt Angle, Goldberg, Benoit, or the 2 hour show in a different time-slot.

I know you are just throwing stuff out there, I was just commenting on to narrow down the options.

 

[Achilles07]

Maybe they've resurrected Andre the Giant and that's what they ment when they said "big." (Just as crazy as most of the stuff you say, folks).

I got to disagree with you. If they went to Monday nights right now and went head to head against Raw, they would be suffering a major blow. At this point, they can not go head to head with Raw. I could, see them going head to head with SD and beating them but thats just because of the state Sd's in.

Dont forget Monday Night Football...Raw has seen a drop in ratings becuase of this and that would be suicide for TNA to debut on a Monday night!

 

[sledge450]

if tna go's 2 hours, it will be either a wednesday or a friday...anything else,especially going against raw,or even wwe-cw, would be product suicide.

lol true, if they switched to Monday nights, there ratings would be below .5

PopWarner football is better than smackdown. But in all fairness they do have some good talent like Taker and Mr. Kennedy.

Actually If I remember correctly WCW Nitro started at 8 pm est and built up a base because people watched the show and turned to football or WWF at 9...

 

[realblackhart]

this is crazy that this is drawing so much attention, i don't even watch TNA but Im sittin here in the TNA forum trying to find outr what's going on. i never spent more than a minute in the TNA forum. this better be good, if not a once interested fan in TNA part-time is going back to the WWE full time and i'm sure im not the only one that feels that way

lol i still watch it but theres no disagreeing that its been no where near as good as it used to be. Ever since Eddie(R.I.P) "left" its just not been the same. But yes, they do have some talent, Kennedy, Taker, Lashley, and Batista but we have all heard that he is extremaly unhappy and wants to move back to Raw.
