IMPACT Wrestling LD - All Dates

[klunderbunker]

I'm trying so hard to care and my goodness I just don't.

 

[klunderbunker]

Did you know Lashley does MMA? Because he does.

That is all.

 

[Lowdown]

Every week I keep twisting in the wind waiting for something to go down I might be interested in. And it never comes to fruition.

 

[klunderbunker]

The problem is that it's not even bad. It's perfectly acceptable but there's just NO connection or emotion for any of this. It comes and goes and I might remember some of it tomorrow. That's really, really not good and for me is the worst thing a show can do.

 

[klunderbunker]

I really could go without the "Starring Bruce Prichard" part of "Impact Wrestling Starring Bruce Prichard".

 

[Lowdown]

Why the hell can they just have standard wrestling matches for the Grand Championship? If they must have the match split into rounds everytime, then why not just make the match 2 out of 3 falls? At least it would eliminate the judge aspect of it.

 

[Sai the Uganda Guy]

I love Moose and I love EC3, but my God I hate the Grand Championship.

 

[Lowdown]

This is nuts. Just keep it simple. This whole judging like a boxing match is unnecessary.

 

[Lowdown]

So does this officially make Bruce Pritchard a heel authority figure?

 

[Sai the Uganda Guy]

They're trying too hard to be unique with it. Without the judging it's just like the TV or Global or whatever title... That's not a bad thing, I wouldn't mind it, but clearly someone thought the judging of rounds was a good idea and need to be slapped silly for such stupidity.
I like the 2 out of 3 falls idea, Lowdown. Anything to get rid of the judges.

 

[klunderbunker]

Can anyone explain why Bahh and Bokara have jobs?

 

[klunderbunker]

Review is up.

Ice Picks, Donkeys and Cottage Cheese (This Show was Really Boring)

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Can anyone explain why Bahh and Bokara have jobs?

They're hired jobbers.

I actually like Bahh. I feel like there's something to work with there. Bokara is like watching paint dry.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

I love Moose and I love EC3, but my God I hate the Grand Championship.

Agreed. It just doesn't translate well to pro wrestling. I give Corgan credit for trying something new, but this is a failed concept, and I wish they'd scrap it.

The title itself could probably be kept around, but the judging concept ought to be done away with by now. Just make it a mid-card title. If you want to give it a gimmick, make it a traveling championship that's routinely defended overseas.

 

[klunderbunker]

They're hired jobbers.

True. And I have no idea why those two of all people are there. At least they stopped wearing those titles, whatever they were.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

To be honest, I actually like it more when a company has contracted jobbers versus bringing in random no-name talents from the city in which they're operating out of that night.

 

[klunderbunker]

Karen is as forced into this role as the time my Aunt Bessie tried to put on a girdle.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm laughing. Really, I am. We're supposed to be stunned that Gail Kim is getting a title shot. I'm laughing.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

K, I'm in. Just starting. I'll catch up.

 

[klunderbunker]

These international tag matches are fine in theory but it doesn't work like it used to in WCW. Back then you weren't going to find that kind of stuff anywhere. Today, you can easily find a half dozen or more promotions on YouTube with the exact same stuff, if not far better. It's fine, but this is far from the groundbreaking stuff that they'd like it to be.

 

[klunderbunker]

Remember a few years ago when Park was one of the most entertaining characters in wrestling because he got to show off how good he could be with comedy and let you see how much more he could do than Abyss? Well screw that because we need this fat, embarrassment to wrestling named Kongo Kong to get a monster push instead.

Is he supposed to be the second coming of Kamala or something? Where did he come from?

 

[klunderbunker]

Is he supposed to be the second coming of Kamala or something? Wheredid he come from?

As is the case 95% of the time in TNA: they didn't explain it at first and after awhile you're just supposed to go with it.

 

[klunderbunker]

This is another show that feels like it's about 95 hours long.

 

[Lowdown]

I want to be invested in this, but I struggle week in and week out.
