i think it should be mentioned that tna ratings have been steadily climbing. also, the timeslot isn't as good, nor is the company as well established. need i also remind people that wcw lost way more money than tna has, and also climbed to the top. granted, they're gone now, but that was an issue of people not doing buisness backstage, and those people are not around in tna. also, i would like to know how exactly many of the tna stars are "no names" or "haven't been relevant in years"?
now, i'm not an "anti wwe" guy by any means. but, if you're going to cut down a product, state facts, not "facts as you see them".

I think nobody has a problem with TNA becoming a strong company (I sure don't).
I just hate how you have to be full TNA or full Double Double E. And I hate uber marks like Tweety here.

Tna offers Paparazzi Productions Christian Cage and "give me a beat" Tomko LAX Christopher Daniels, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe These 4 reasons alone are enough to watch. WWE John Cena 4 moves of Doom taking out an entire roster of far more talented entertainers. Bobby Lashley ECW champ. If you can even call that joke ECW. Batista hahahahahah K-Fed Rosie 12 minutes of wrestling per 2 hour show Horrible horrible angles King Booker and JBL commentary the only positive I can award that crapey organization. WWE also draws 20,000 paid fans to a house show. Chris Benoit, Finlay, Shawn Michaels, Edge, C.M. Punk, King Booker, Rey Mysterio, Triple H and Randy Orton (among others) that can all put on great matches, put butts in seats, sell merchandise and be entertaining. WWE has legends created (mostly) in WWE, like Hogan, Bruno, Billy Graham, Randy Savage, Pedro Morales, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Steve Austin and The Ultimate Warrior. What legends does TNA have? The only two real legends they have are Sting and Kurt Angle. Both of whom were created elsewhere. In 20 years, the majority of fans probably will have no idea who A.J. Styles was. Who Chris Daniels was. Who Samoa Joe was. But they will still remember who Hogan, Bret, Shawn, Austin, Cena, Triple H, Warrior and Savage were.

I just wonder who thought the Rosie/Trump thing was a good idea. I don't imagine why they thought anyone would want to see that. It's sad to say it just seemed to be there to amuse Vince.
Ahem. Raven is quite legend. To me anyway. Don't throw rocks at me. I'm not stepping into this "RAWR WWE VS TNA" debate.

Hey, I'm as happy as you are that there's somebody willing to challenge Vince McMahon with superior wrestling, and, thanks to TNA, we can see the true talent of what they have, which we never see in WWE. That being said, they have a hell of a long way to go. Obviously, a 2 hour show and moving out of the Impact zone would go a long way in terms of show quality and revenue is concerned, but until TNA can prove that it can be as comedic, dramatic, and just plain entertaining as the peak years of the WWF, it's not going to beat Vince, because to beat him nowadays, you've got to have, bar none, the BEST in ring and out ring action anyone's ever seen. And right now, they don't. Other than Kevin Nash, they've never been funny, AT ALL, and most of the drama is killed by the constant shouting of the announcers and the crappy acting of the wrestlers. Just my 2 cents.

That RAW was pure unadulterated garbage and I usually find the shows to be watchable, at the very least. I felt robbed of brain cells after the crap tonight. Rosie vs. Trump was pure unadulterated wrestlecrap and I wouldn't be surprised if it's nominated and wins 2007 Gooker of the Year.
With 24 coming on next week and actually falling asleep for most of RAW last week (granted, that was due more to being exhausted from the night before), I think I might just outright stop watching it until the summer and stick to SmackDown and when I can catch it, ECW.
