Letting Vince Russo loose with an openly bisexual character..... potential train wreck, or the greatest thing ever. I honestly see this being Wrestlecrap. I'll go with train wreck.

Yeah this screams Vince Russo.
The only good thing that came out of this is it actually made people talk about Orlando Jordan, which I guess is a positive. I don't think OJ is half as bad as people claim, but he doesn't exactly scream charisma. This at least gives him some character. Whether it's good or not remains to be seen.
I don't think they are ever going to get Goldust circa 1996 heat with a "gay" character again. For one thing Dustin was so convincingly creepy in that role that he made you believe it, and secondly, it's 2010. We've seen everything on TV. A bisexual on TV is not exactly a big deal anymore.

I liked it. It screams Lady Gaga more than anything. His lady friend is very good looking (not fussed on the guy). His music is awesome. It would have been nice if they'd had them watch the whole show and occasionally show shots of them (which would have given them a reason for the whole segment).
I'll see where it's going. So far I'm not insulted, but intrigued.

I guess it makes sense. Abyss has a mental disorder, and Orlando Jordan has a sexual disorder. They could even debut a couple of new characters like "Pope the Polygamist" and "Big Rob the Pedophile". They could even bring in Stinksky to do his foot fetish thing.

Now that TNA has officially launched the new OJ, I wonder if they will let him go ahead and kiss that guy on TV now. I know they edited it out last time, but that was before the new OJ "launched" so to speak.
Hopefully Jordan can find a balance of being bizarre enough to disturb people, but not going so far as to become offensive. It's a fine line to walk for sure.

Nostradamus couldn't predict where this is going. It's so off the wall and bizarre, it can literally go in any direction, most of them likely bad.

He was outted from power in RoH after falling into a trap set by a to catch a predator crew. Where when he was told his chat partners age he famously replied "LoL I'll pretend u said 18"

This might have already been said, but was anyone else more offended that they had (a clearly terrified) Jordon hanging from what looks like 2 rags tied together?

It was bizarre, and not in the good "Goldust" way.
I feel like this segment in particular should have been a vignette, not an actual in-ring segment. I think you could generate the same "WTF" response from the viewers without having the crowd crap on it immediately. The whole idea of a wrestling "Lady Gaga" is sort of intriguing, but I don't know if Jordan has the chops to pull it off. Then again, they say the best characters are when a worker just turns the volume up to 11...well, we're at 11 now.
