Well I can say I was a big fan from the October 2005 debut of iMPACT! on Spike TV, that lasted going into early 2007 and now I just find the product a mess and puzzling...
They have some really good talent in the ring, but the prodcution and creative continues to get worse or stays the same in general, I would like to see TNA do well but for me it's not entertaining overall...
AJ Styles was a favorite of mine, he did remind me of Sting when I first saw Sting as a kid and it was fun to watch AJ wrestle, now he is Little Nature Boy wearing a feather robe and trying to act like him, ugh what a pile of crap that is, AJ was so much better years ago...
I did like seeing the Nasty Boys in a few segments but now they have Jimmy Hart back as the manager and they went over Team 3D, sooner or later they will win the gold from the new team of Morgan and Hernandez who won the belts but are now headed for a feud while holding the belts, thats a WWE formula but TNA's not doing it well at all...
Anyway, I can go on what just turns me off with TNA and thats a shame I really liked the show but it just does not entertain me and now that they are moving to Mondays next month on a full time basis what will they pull out now, I guess I'll check it out but who knows what they're going to do...

I gave TNA another shot with the Hogan thing, and I was 'rewarded' by being forced to watch the Nasty Boys in a prominent angle and Scott hall 'talking'.
That about did it for me... I've been keeping my eye on the show reports, but so far there isn't anything that has made me want to watch.

I watched the first hour and maybe a little longer of lastnights iMPACT! and one thing I did like was the promo segment of "The Pope" D'Angelo Dinero and AJ Styles and the beatdown on the Pope by AJ and Flair. Samoa Joe losing cleanly to Orlando Jordan and they didn't show it but he kisses the guy first and then the girl on the cheeks when they cameout, guess TNA is trying to be the new Attitude Era with that and come on Joe is starting over again, the guys was a former World Champion and now a hack, oh well thats the way it goes for Joe...
Overall the stuff I saw wasn't bad but TNA is moving to Monday's March 8th and they really think they're going to win the war, if they can get something good going and consistant they can have atleast a descent shot of having better ratings...

Are they actually moving to Monday? I thought they were just going to do an occassional live Monday show. I actually think they'd do better on Mondays, despite the WWE... I think WWE fans would be more likely to flip to TNA during RAW commercials than they'd be to tune in special... then, if they get the eyeballs, they at least have a chance to keep them.
I liked what I saw of 'the Pope', though I couldn't help but wish that gave that gimmick to Jay Lethal instead of the Macho Man thing.
Joe is a mystery to me. TNA clearly doesn't really want him to be a main eventer, but every once in a while they toss him into a top level program, and with a new personality every time. You can't even really define him anymore. I think he needs some time away.. maybe if he had an 'injury' for 6-9 months he could come back fresh with a well defined character and get back on top.

Yes, they have a count down clock to March 8th to the full time move to Monday's at 9pm they announced it during the show lastnight...
The plan that was reported is have a LIVE show every other week with a taped show taped that Tuesday to air the following Monday...
Eric Bischoff said, we will either float or sink but we are giving fans another option over the WWE, we'll see what happens and it sounds like TNA plans to sign another name from lastnights show...

I wonder who it is? There aren't that many decent WWE Castaways left. . . Maybe JBL or Jimmy Snuka Jr? The return of Booker?

Who knows all Bischoff said I think on his cellphone "Tell him it's better here then that cesspool he worked for up north!"...

Then again, seeing how they brought the Nasty Boys back, I guess it could be Honky Tonk Man.

I think in the end TNA will lose more of it's original's down the road like Daniels who is not liked by Hogan or Bischoff and really what are they doing with Joe and I could see him gone too... I think we'll see what happens with them moving to Mondays at 9pm and how many people will tune into the show, I would love to see the two companies step their game up but the WWE right now has no threat in TNA overall...

I could only take about half of the first in ring segment with AJ, Flair, Abyss and Hogan and then turned it off...
Abyss is the next Hogan, will he come out in red and yellow down the road with Hogan & Abyss against Flair & AJ Styles, god what a joke...
Desmond Wolfe loses to Abyss, Rob Terry wins over Mr.Anderson and so what is up with these strange matches and Wolfe might be getting a pay check but really he's not getting the push that he had when he debuted and now with Hogan in charge he's done...
