TNA WRESTLING @impactwrestling · 1h 1 hour ago

Fans around the world are choosing to #StandUp & I vow to make sure you're heard! Be loud, keep telling me what you want! Be back tomorrow!

So Drew has been "given control" of TNA's social media page so that fans can have a voice and tell TNA officials what they want.

This could end up very badly and I know this will probably deteriorate into a make fun of TNA (understandably) but if this were done by a company that showed a bit more competence, it's actually a cool way to hype up Galloway

I'm expecting #Askdixie part 2

It's the monk version of Aces and Eights!

[Jedi-El of Tomorrow]

Yeah TNA, all the tweets using that hashtag are referring to TNA and not stand up comedy, or standing up to injustice.

[Demented]

There are a number of things I'll stand up for, TNA is not one of those things. Okay, that's a lie. I did stand up once for TNA. I do admit, Taryn's magical cleavage was on screen at the time.

[El Cokehead del Knife Fight]

Someone favourited my tweet "whatever happened to Samoa Joe?"

[Rudy Gobert Fadeaway]

The fact that it's been almost 4 years and companies are still trying to make terrible copies of CM Punk in 2011 is just amazing to me.

In all honesty, when I saw the headline, I really thought this was about male victims of domestic violence.

[Just call me D.j.m.]

I'd ask...

"Do you ever get tired of douchey tweets from wrestling fans that think they're clever?"

Which would be noble, but also maybe misguided when she's working for the same company as him.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

Why does Drew love that one Smackdown theme so much?

[lionheart21]

Decided to send a tweet, because why not?

@impactwrestling I want booking that doesn't rely on constant interference.

[Deleted]

So did TNA just get jealous of all the hashtags attacking WWE lately and decide to invite a fight of their own?

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

That gang in the picture is the shittiest revolutionary gang of all time. These goofs couldn't get the same mask.

[Emmet Russell]

Whenever I see a V for Vendetta mask, I can't help but think there's a nerdy neckbeard behind it that sparks revolutions from his laptop that's covered in cheetoh dust.

Not what you want for a serious movement.

If a team can't even match up their gear, how can you expect them to have their shit together in any other area?

Everyone at that Drew rally's probably tripping over their own shoes.

You havew to give the BeatDownClan credit. They're always coordinated with their matching 1980s Breakdance troupe jackets and beanies.

Too bad they keep getting their butts kicked when trying to jump someone.

I don't understand this. We're going to tell Drew McIntyre (TNA basically) what we want and they're going to deliver? Isn't that what wrestling fans have been doing for the past 5 years when it comes to TNA?

I don't have Twitter so I won't be tweeting with McIntyre but what TNA fans want is simple. As a matter of fact I can sum it up with 3 points:

1. Talent that are fun to watch (They don't have to be mat technicians or indy darlings but everyone you put on TV should be marketable in some way. No more Chris Melendez, Crazy Steve, Knux, Abyss, Khoya, Grado, Sam Shaw etc etc. Hire guys with potential to make you money instead of putting any green rookie in the ring because he'll work cheap)

2. Use these talents properly (Again, they don't have to be the next Rock or Austin but if you hire someone they should be used properly. This means not a random heel turn, this means not a random story line that embarrasses the character and ruins him. That means finding the guys strengths, playing to them and developing someone who can make you money)

3. Proper story lines and compelling television (The most important one. TNA shows rarely flow properly and rarely bring a person back for next weeks show. It's not "must see" TV and that's why the audience has dropped off. If it were must see TV then TNA would have brought a million fans with it to Destination America instead they brought about 300,000. TNA is a show you can miss for 2 months and you turn it back on and they're in the same building, the same guys are still on top and feuding with the same people. Pull the trigger on things, make matches mean something again. I read the Impact thread and a poster couldn't understand why he wasn't pumped for an EY/Angle/Roode match. The reason is because it has no build and TNA can't really make things interesting. Without a person who can make things interesting we will see TNA continue to lose money. Unfortunately for TNA John Gaburick is not the creative genius they need)

[Emmet Russell]

So ... how long before they turn McIntyre heel?

He's obviously connecting with audiences well and he has future potential as a top star in the company. I think he's turned by the first episode back in Orlando.
