The road to the April 15th Lockdown Pay-Per-View event begins!

​

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Thread title date is wrong, sorry 'bout that.

Might be in a bit late tonight. Really interested in the outcome of Pittsburgh/Nashville, so I may opt to watch TNA on delay, since I have the option (DVR).

 

[Joe's Gonna Kill You]

Excited for the show

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

So fucking pumped for Lockdown.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm curious abotu what they're going to do with Aries. Based on the crowd reaction at the PPV he's practically a face by default. Those kind of turns by audience willpower usually result in MONSTER pushes. That should be interesting.

That was the iMPACT Zone crowd, so there's a grain of salt to be taken there, but in principle I completely agree, and honestly, I get the sense that TNA has big plans for Aries. He's been over as fuck lately and there's NOTHING left for him in the X Division.

 

[The Bearded One]

I'm going to be here tonight. I've been loving Impact lately.

The best thing to do is to get that title off of him and let him climb the card. The people want to see it, so go with it. I hope that happens. So basically by BFG 2012 I'd think he would be somewhere in the upper echelon of wrestlers in the entire company.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

Sure why not

I agree. I've been an Aries fan for years and I love how well he's doing in TNA. I would have had him lose the X Division Title last Sunday. Then I would have had him answer Robbie E.'s open challenge and win the TV Title. I think Aries could be the one to make the TV Title relevant. Plus, it would have smoothly transitioned out of the X Division and into a spot higher on the card.

Hogan could hold the title and it wouldn't matter if he never appears on TV/defends it.

 

[The Bearded One]

To quote the Bud Light commercials: "Here we go!"

 

[Joe's Gonna Kill You]

TNA! TNA! TNA!

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Sting with a "severe" concussion. Hmm... what happens to iMPACT GM position?

 

[The Bearded One]

That's true. I think Aries is the type of person that would be on TV regularly as he's someone that is pretty over with the crowd, so I assume he's someone they would want on TV every week. It would have also been an easy way to get him out of the X Division.

That's true, but they really need to change the way the title is used. It's on TV once a month or so anymore and D-Von came out of the crowd after no one came down the ramp for a free challenge to it. That makes it look even weaker.

 

[The Bearded One]

They shouldn't have replayed this. This is awkward.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Aries doesn't need a title to be over. The crowd adores him regardless. Might be great in the vein of a Jeff Hardy-type, gunning for the World Title but not quite winning it for years.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Hey, we get an intro again! Nice!

 

[JJYanks121]

They shouldn't have replayed this. This is awkward.

Tell us what happened quickly if you want but do it quicker than that. That's 5 minutes of broadcast on something that already happened when you only have 2 hours to begin with.

 

[klunderbunker]

The ending to that PPV would have been great if not for one problem: no one cares about Dixie Carter.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

I would also like to point out Aries is the reason I'm watching. He is be far my in my top 3. The other 2 being Roode & Storm

 

[It's Damn Real!]

They played too much of it. You could have told the viewers what happend in 1:00, 2:00 tops.

 

[klunderbunker]

Is Dixie the dumbest boss in the history of wrestling?

 

[Hyorinmaru]

i'd be able to deal with the ******ed fans if it wan't such a small building
