TNA iMPACT! & ReAction LD for 10.07 is LIVE Before the Glory!

[It's Damn Real!]

Hey Riaku and IDR, Jeff Hardy is trying to get TNA to hire Gregory Helms. Thoughts?

I like Helms, but the roster is a little tight right now for that kind of thing. I'd be OK with him if they bailed on a few others to make room for him.

Actually, I imagine we may probably see them bail on a few guys to make roster room for an influx of former WWE talent. Not only is there Helms, but there's also Carlito, Knox, Yang, and several other former WWE guys just waiting for the opportunity to steal the positions of other homegrown TNA guys.

Talent is talent. I don't care where a guy "came from" any more than I care about what religion he is — both are equally as irrelevant when it comes to wrestling, despite popular opinion (on this forum).

That said, Knox, Yang and "several other WWE guys" aren't good enoguh as far as I'm concerned, and frankly I don't care much for Carlito, either.

Helms is the only one out of the glut of performers I'd consider.

I never understood what Carlito had going for him. Sure there was a mild level of charisma there, but nothing significant. When I rack my brain for memories of him I come up with one promo where he was alongside Vince McMahon and John Cena... and that's literally it.
Usually I take so few memories as an indication that a guy wasn't much good.

As for the rest of the ex-WWE brigade, I'd enjoy seeing The Worlds Greatest Tag Team show up to serve as fresh faces in the tag division. TNA has three of the greatest tag teams in pro wrestling, but we've seen them face one another so many times that they're in constant need of fresh blood, and Ink Ink don't really cut it for me.

Anyone else... not so much with the interest from me.

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

I agree with Gelgarin, Haas and Benjamin are welcome to join. Everyone else can go to somewhere else.

An apple, an afro and a stupid catch phrase.

I'm plenty fine with them, because they come in with a history with Angle, and give the tag division a shot in the arm.

Matt Hardy can come if he agrees to take his brother out of the main event scene and stick to tag work.

I'd rather he kill himself.

Too harsh?

I'd rather not, to be honest. At least with TWGTT, you've got a little humility. I'm not so sure the same would be the case were the Hardys to be working for the same company (on the same show) again. I really don't want to see them as World Champions, especially because they'd probably hold those belts for a long time.

 

[Gelgarin]

Probably. You could have at least fashioned some kind of joke around him feuding with Suicide... 's a question of tone and all that.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Less than 30 to go.

 

[Gelgarin]

Majorly pumped to be doing this again. My beloved has woken up; but I plan to lock her away in the next room with her medicine textbooks whilst I chug caffine and admire Kurt Angle's thighs.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Excited to have ya back, bud. Makes watching the the KB Complains show a little more bearable.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm a good bit sleepy here so my energy level will be down. Need to save energy for tomorrow.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

HA! I'll believe it when I see it, brotha.

 

[klunderbunker]

Well that and I just reviewed BFG 09 and have 08 on my list and since 09 was a good show I'm in a good mood.

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

Guesss IDR isn't happy to have me back

Neither is KB

Took me a sec to realize it was even you, man — name change threw me off. How've you been, homie?

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

I've been ok, I'm ice skating again.

How have you been?

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

I'm also crazy pumped for tonights show. Can't wait to see ReAction live.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

HERE WE GO!

 

[Tiger Chaos Theory]

Holy shit kidnapping in process!

 

[Gelgarin]

Oh good... Abyss. Just what I always wanted.

 

[klunderbunker]

1. WHERE IS SECURITY?

2. Why isn't this guy fired or in like jail yet?

 

[klunderbunker]

Never liked the one shoulder look on women.
