I hate you Vince Russo you make BFG all about the old and ex-WWE guys while the TNA originals are an after thought.
Joe and Pope are pawns in the battle between Hogan/Jarret and Nash/Sting
Flair is the focus of the Fourtune and EV2.0 feud (With AJ and co playing the flunkies to Flair)
Abyss is kind of lost in the either with the whole "They" thing.
The TNA World Championship is being fought for by 3 ex-WWE guys and the next title shot is going to RVD an ex-WWE guy.
What the hell happened to Jay Lethal's push (That's right Vince Russo forgets a push has to be sustained).
You have time and time again told your fans that Ex-WWE/WCW/ECW guys will forever be better then TNA stars. What are you doing Russo? How is consitantly undercutting guys built by your brand going to get people to buy into your brand as being legit?

I don't see this as Russo at all. Everytime he's been in control, he's tried to make it about the younger guys. It's someone else that just came in that loves the ex-WWE guys and pushes the hell out of them over homegrown talent, though just don't dare say anything about him being one of the biggest failures in wrestling history lest he call you on his Facebook page.

So Pope, who is more over than 95% of the TNA roster (I'd only put AJ and Anderson over him right now) is being turned heel, however is with two guys getting cheered despite being heels and now Jarrett, Pope and, Joe are going to have to carry Sting, Nash and a currently hospitalized with back injuries from picking up seashells Hogan to a decent match at BFG? Why? Sting and Nash don't need to be carried, really. Sting's never really been one to have bad performances,especially at BFG, and Nash can still wrestle his big man style well. Hogan, yeah, but all he has to do is Bret Hart it and let everyone else do most of it. I agree. Sting doesn't have to be carried. Hogan, Yeah he will but he'll be on the apron like Bret at summerslam with doing a only few things.

How is consitantly undercutting guys built by your brand going to get people to buy into your brand as being legit? Which explains why the TNA guys were the winners coming out of the last PPV, them being most of the primary belt holders outside of the vacant world title, that some of the guys have spent enough time in TNA to get rid of that ex-whatever" label, or should have, and in general, being exactly the opposite of what you're saying.....

The way Russo booked before Bischoff and Hogan arrived, like the way he pushed AJ, Desmond wolfe, etc, I suspect its Bischoff and Hogan influencing Dixie to pusn the old guys.

The fact that yet another Cage match went to a no-decision makes me want to rip my eyes out.

Offhand I'm not enthused by those spoilers much at all. Only thing that has me even a little curious is Anderson vs Joe.

They were filler until the main course arrived. Russo fans can argue all they want about who he pushes, and who he doesn't push, but at the end of the day the material is weak. And as the head writer, Russo really does deserve every single ounce of criticism he gets for the actual writing of the show. And lets not forget that, despite Wolfe taking off, Russo rushed through his program with Angle phenomenally quickly. Because he has no idea how to book long-term. Wolfe should be in the main event by now, but Russo booked him solely to lose to Angle and then lost interest.

This is where these goofy "I am being held down" angles don't work. It presumes that the viewer knows that wrestling is a work, which is the exact opposite of how to book wrestling. It's a bit heelish for Pope to get chances at the belt and come up short, then blame management....but we're supposed to know he's being booked to job in these matches and is thus being held down. Except it has nothing to do with the "wrestling is a work" aspect. It's that he's having these big matches, and gets nothing in return. It's all on TV, and it fits well with the whole angle Nash & Co are pulling in the first place. But it's his fault he's getting nothing, kayfabe-wise. Pope's the guy blowing these chances. What does he want, someone to hold Anderson or whoever down so he can pin them?

People are right about the Pope thing. He's been given the chances, he blew it.
Also, Jay Lethal won the X-Divison title on 9/16, in a moment that required confetti and a mass celebration. He's is then not seen on impact for the next two weeks.

Maybe he got some confetti in his eye. And needed 117 stitches.

People are right about the Pope thing. He's been given the chances, he blew it. I disagree, Pope has been stealing wins for weeks now but never gets his push. Try to stay current, what happens months ago doesn't mean as much as last few weeks. I think scooping up Pope into Sting's conspiracy theory stable has merit. So what if Pope is over and gets a "heel" turn (I still maintain they are actually faces) this is TNA here where the only real heel is Matt Morgan. Quite honestly I think Pope's personality is better suited for a heel character anyways. This story is just playing off national politics.

These sound like joke results written to annoy people.
Flair vs Foley? Dreamer and Rhyno winning? The Band 2.0 with Pope as EY? Jarrett, Hogan and Joe on a team?
Styles v Kendrick should be a great match though.
Aside from that the last few iMPACT results have been not my cup of tea at all.

I don't like these spoilers at all. The fake BP (Madison/Tara) lost all credibility when Velvet beat Madison, it was a complete burial, and im talking about Alicia fox burial, Sarita will likely be included in the feud to make it even Angie/Velvet/LVE vs Madison/Tara/Sarita

^ Oh please!
Madison isn't that good anyway so her losing to Velvet was NOT a burial. She didn't have any credibility left anyway going into the match after losing to Angelina back to back.

Madison was booked as the top heel of the KO division, she was buried at No Surrender against the top face's lackey, I believe Sarita will likely be included in the feud and becomes the new top heel.

^ I swear you will not give up.
Velvet is NOT Angelina's lackey anymore and like I said Madison isn't that good herself and doesn't come off as a threat to anyone even when she was KO champion. Madison might have been booked as the top heel of the division but she wasn't believable in that role at all.
That's all I'm going to say because I know your just trying to start a fight and I'm not going to give you the satisfaction.
