TNA gets a lot of heat about a lot of things thats well deserved. But, what TNA has that WWE hasnt had in a really long time is having the best athletes. Guys like AJ styles, Bobby Roode, Sting, Samoa Joe and James Storm may not have started out in TNA but with guys like them on TNA's roster, guys such as Dolph Ziggler, The Miz, Mark Henry, John Cena and Randy Orton don't hold a candle in ability, some of them dont even hold a candle in mic skills and overall charisma. One thing about WWE is that their matches are usually quite boring, and the wrestlers are always jumping around and rolling basically making it look like ballet with commentary. TNA has the best matches with the best wrestlers and they have the best gimmicks. WWE hasnt had a good real gimmick since Hurricane. They also give more wrestlers chances at the spotlight. TNA pushes more wrestlers while WWE only pushes maybe 8 people out of their huge 30+ roster.
However, at least i can finish watching a WWE show. I get so bored with TNA after about the first hour. The matches are great and the wrestlers are great but the commentary is shit. Many say that Michael Cole is unbearable, i disagree and say that Mike Tenay is the worst commentator there in history even in his WCW days. The theme songs are so generic and similar to each other. They sound cheap and like they were played on a toy keyboard and I never know who is coming out when the music hits until i see him. WWE's storylines arent too creative but they still keep me interested. The wrestlers are for the most part more charismatic and things like the Money in the Bank, Royal Rumble and the Survivor Series matches are much more interesting. Another thing is that WWE has PPV's that you can remember. The TNA PPV's names included are pretty generic, not too special and if someone asked me to name a PPV for TNA past, present or future i could not do it. Another thing is that TNA sees WWE is TV-PG. They see that many fans hate PG television and they try the exact opposite approach. They overdo violence, they over cursing and they overdo the sexuality.
The question is what do you think TNA/WWE has that WWE/TNA will never have?
