I think it is wrong on both companies part to continue this. It is wrong for WWE to bar their superstars from talking to TNA talent as you know several of the TNA talent and WWE talent rosters have very close relationships (it would be like your boy/girlfriend telling you to never see any of your friends again) and TNA should not have shown Robbie being in the crowd (only doing it as a way to take a cheap shot at the WWE by bragging that one of their performers is watching there show because how do we know he didnt just go to the show to celebrate a special occasion with someone he knows). He might have been, but it was a WWE guy watching a TNA TV show and no matter how petty it is, he shouldn't have done that. If it were a house show,it would be different as no one sees it but the people in attendance. It sucks, but those are the rules they implemented. I was saying shame on TNA for not understanding that a WWE guy might have obligations to someone close to them to see a TNA show with them. Robbie probably wasnt there to say F*** U, WWE.

I'm sure he wasn't, but still he has to factor in that he has a job and that the people he works for may not like seeing him on another wrestling program that isn't WWE. It sucks, but that's how it is.

Definitely I agree there as it would only get the guy in trouble and it was unnecesssary.

1) It was a dick move on TNA's part to show him.
....honestly, its one of the f***ing Highlanders, how does that make you look any bigger?
2) Its a dick move on WWE's part to fire him over it.

He looked so bored too, so it was dumb of TNA to show him.

Wow. Way to suck, WWE. And also, that was a bitch move on TNA's part to point him out like that. dude it's a fake picture Drrp. That's what I get for not paying attention. That being said, it was still a bitch move for TNA to be like "Oh, look!"

poor guy, he just wanted to do something for entertainment and got busted. That sucks for him, because he is totally expendable and will likely be fired for this. it's like TNA wanted to get him fired they didn't have to show him

TNA: We are bastards!
Poor guy comes out, despite the risk, to support TNA and they take that opportunity to possibly screw him out of a job.
At the same time, it's a little sad that the guy had more TV time on TNA this week than any WWE broadcast. ;D

"guy in trouble and you knew they were thinking exactly that when they did it."
On any other week I wouldn't have cared as much because the guy is undercard at best in the WWE. This is not just another weekend though. Orlando is a hotbed this weekend for the wrestling world. Its the place to be as a pro wrestling fan right now.
Tenay mentioned briefly on Impact this situation of close quarters and then the phone ad comes up for you to call with info on some confrontation that possibly happened. All TNA needs now is fuel for the fire and to able to expose its rival on their biggest weekend.
I don't think TNA cares what level the guy is at or how much this helps their own company. They had the chance to go and expose a WWE employee at their event and they did it. It was like a piece of WWE walked in their doors and sat down in their crowd. Literally.
Its not like he tried to hide either. Too late. Idiot! You are just SITTING there. The camera is on you for seconds. They couldn't use your stage name but they KNOW your REAL name. They put the company you work for next to your name. Its like being assassinated camera style.

He looked so bored too, so it was dumb of TNA to show him. If anything this should make the WWE keep him on the payroll. "Yes one of our superstars was at a TNA event and he is absolutely bored out of his skull watching it" kind of like an anti-endorsement. Kind of reminds me of how at the beginning of the WWE-ECW relationship when Dreamer, Sandman and Heyman made a cameo appearance during the Bradshaw-Vega strap match. There was actually a picture taken for one of the Apter mags from this event of Taz and I believe Perry Saturn napping during the show, slouched in their chairs.

this is so stupid, i mean honestly, what difference does it make if he was there or not? i dont understand why WWE is being so unprofessional of the fact that TNA exists. I mean its absolutely normal for a wrestler to check out other promotions, thats like a band member of one band watching another band play. Its not like he intentionally came out on camera...
He probably is gonna be punished for this unfortunately
