Wasn't it true that Brooke Hogan

[chrom]

Was edited into backstage segments that was taped and she wasn't really there at all doing it?

I heard a report that they did that with her due to her abysmal acting and I gotta ask if that's true.

[El Cokehead del Knife Fight]

Yeah it's true. I think it was more that Hulk wanted her to have a light schedule so they taped a ton of segments so that the girls had to act like they were talking to her and being talked to by her.

God that sounds stupid. Talk about a waste of money and airtime.

[Push R Truth]

I would love to know how many viewers TNA gained with all the money they spent on Brooke.


In all seriousness I doubt it was even 100 viewers gained.

[Sephiroth]

If the segment where Brooke fell on her ass during an entrance was taped in advance as TNA didn't think to edit it out , I woukd laugh quite heartily.

To this day I don't understand why she even signed to the company, her reality tv career was pretty much over, like a poster above said, they didn't gained any viewers, f*** Hogan truly raped that company...kinda off topic Scott Steiner claimed that Nick was supposed to debut during the Immortal era with Garrett Bischoff...I'm so thankful in didn't happened

Thank god that didn't happen, and for those unfortunate few who are curious, Garrett is still employed!

Well at least they could have just used Mick Foleys theme for Nick.

[ayumidah]

Well, if TNA's good for one thing, it's their stories that inspire all of those disbelieving laughs/eyerolls...

Accurate and at the same time kind of understatement.

I know everything that happens in TNA ultimately lies in the hands of Dixie, but it doesn't change the fact that Hogan lays waste where ever he goes. After his path of destruction, he pretty much goes back to the wwe to a hero's welcome.

Still not as bad as "hey, let's film the commentators reading a script and cut to them reading it and not watching a Sting brawl like they're pretending to. Let's also use this shot for the show, which we have like 4 days of time to edit but will leave this, as-is", but going by that, they probably did film it ahead of time. They have ludicrously bad production standards.

During an Aries/Anderson pre-tape, they left in the producer/director/cameraman/whoever saying cut.

That one was also just so bad, especially considering that someone with only 45 minutes, tops, of training would know how to remove that. They just don't care.

Considering the production crew walked out and quit after the last tapings after the treatment and missed pay. Imagine all the mistakes that are going to happen now.

Maybe Dixie will handle all production duties herself?

Path of Destruction. Raped the company is an understatement. Glad we have perspective.

I still maintain that Tenay and West were watching their monitors, as they would have to in order to watch a brawl in the crowd going backstage.

It was still a really bad choice of a camera shot, especially on a taped show.
