TNA Sacrifice Reportedly Does Record Low Buyrate

[X]

Hay; I did exactly the same thing. Where the hell's my snide comeback?

Nah your comment was actually a well informed counter-point, unlike SD's which just screams of the usual raging butthurt, takes shots at both me and the WWE, and comes off like he usually does, which is an extremely insecure basket case clinging to every single word that you say, because he realizes that you're actually an intelligent person and often make good points, while he just mocks people and defends everything TNA does in such a knee-jerk fashion that even he realizes at this point that nobody takes him or anything he says remotely seriously. Hence, he piggy-backs on every single post or point you ever make.

At least we know who has a classier fanbase. Did you see any threads here about the far more dramatic number for WWE? Nope.

Then you aren't looking hard enough, or even looking at all.

You should probably take 5 seconds to look at the WWE section before just blatantly making shit up.

Yet an "unbiased wrestling critic" managed to start a thread here and cut and paste information while conveniently leaving out the WWE part. Hope they do not take away his blogging privileges over this.

Errr no, I copy and pasted the exact news quote as it was printed on 411. It didn't say a thing about the WWE PPV buyrates, because the news topic was specifically about TNA.

Get back to your dunce corner while the adults are speaking, thanks.

I reckon there's less sunlight between Rock and Chyna than there is between WWE and TNA, so it bears mentioning from where I sit (my living room, fyi).

What also bears mentioning is in their first PPVs back, Chyna's company had one of the lowest buyrates ever and WWE had the second biggest ever.

I'm gonna chalk it up to a bad month and TNA not being able to do anything right. The Chyna thing should have worked in a better time in a more competent company. I don't think Chyna has anything on Rock, but I definitely thing there should be enough of a market for late '90s nostalgia that someone who was at Chyna's level should be able to have a more successful comeback after a decade than that.

Then again, this is the same company that's been killing the magic of Sting one match a time and squandered whatever interest there was in seeing Hulk Hogan again.

How does a thread in the WWE section examining what the cause may have been defeat my point about how the fanbases handled the similar reports? There were no spam threads made about the topic, which is where we usually discuss rating/buy topics. The only thread made about it had no references to McMahon crying himself to sleep at night in the OP.

Fair enough if true. The exact same thing was put up on wrestlezone 9topic only about TNA as well) but it referenced the prior news regarding OTL in the lead sentence.


A lot of writing about my personal tastes and none responding to my points on the topic. What school is teaching this crap?

The other main difference: Rock is a legit action star in Hollywood. Chyna is making porn and is famous for being on a celebrity rehab show. Also I've yet to see Chyna main event three Wrestlemanias.

Your standards for legitimacy are a tad liberal, IMO. I'd venture he was on his last legs as an "action star" until Fast Five dropped.

Sexism.

I don't know if I'd go that far. Legitimate might have been a bit much though.

It is amazing how smart people think they are based on using a different application of "here." It appears they used up all their brainpower on that one because they conveniently ignore everything else. Do you guys really think people not in the WWE fanbase spend a lot of time in the section?

Pardon?

Get it... because I was implying that I didn't hear... see?
I'm open to taking bookings.

If we are taking coco seriously then I must inquire why Chyna is to blame more than your beloved RVD?

Do you fucking speak english?

He didnt say it was Chyna's fault, he said it was TNA's fault. Holy shit.
I bet you wear velcro strap sandals and a helmet, dont you?

 

[Coco]

I'm not blaming Chyna at all. But I wouldn't blame RVD either as the build was more about Immortal, Anderson, and everyone other than RVD.

Get bent, troll.

 

[shattered dreams]

Are you happy? Now can we quit using semantics poorly to try and avoid the questions at hand?

If your statement about RVD taking a backseat to everyone else during the build is true (doubtful IMO to the extent you are claiming) would that not suggest they were building to Slammiversary more than Sacrifice opposed to being incompetent or whatever you said?

I think TNA did fine with Chyna. It was the main event and the other matches besides Jarrett-Angle that just didn't seem to bring a lot to the table. I think it was intentional to an extent but they may have underestimated how far RVD's stock had dropped.

I never implied that either.

Her time's a comin'!

Botchamania for porn could be entertaining ... or disgusting or both.

 

[Coco]

That's right. Flee from the evidence of your poor reading comprehension.

 

[shattered dreams]

I will readily admit that at this point I have no idea what you think your point is.

 

[Coco]

If TNA were a better company, Chyna would have drawn big. That's my point.

Out of boredom, define better.
