Well he is a generic looking son of a b****, I googled him & he had dreads but the TNA pic is rather dull. Well, he cut the dreads off back when he thought he had a hope in hell of getting reinstated.  |

well, Impact ratings should spike a bit. The IWC will hate the idea, but the casual fan will be interested in seeing Pac Man getting his ass kicked.

I don't get how this is good for TNA when people think it's the fourth brand of WWE? Oh well, when the buzz stops, the rating will be the same.

Eh, guess it'll be good for a ratings pop.
I still don't like Pacman, though.
If they bring him in as a heel, it could work, but it sounds like they're not doing that. I can't begin to guess why not.

I don't know, are the football fans going ga-ga over this? I don't know as I don't watch football or anything. As a football fan, I'm only sort of interested. But that's because the Tennessee Titans are my 2nd favorite team. I don't know. I'm willing to see where they go with this before I crap all over it. |

Just saw them mention this on ESPNews and they mentioned he had signed with "TNA (no not that kind) Wrestling" and that he could now "legally brawl". They did mention that Kurt Angle was their champ which got a "how the mighty have fallen" and laughing until commercial.
No mention of Spike TV (understandable), iMPACT, the PPV or anything positive really.

No mention of Spike TV (understandable), iMPACT, the PPV or anything positive really. ESPN only mentions professional wrestling when it's bad news or a buried Wrestlemania story. Add that to the fact that it's Pacman Jones, who was the biggest evil in the NFL up until Michael Vick, and there shouldn't be any surprise that it's negative and, more importantly, that they're not going to take it seriously. The only reason it's getting mentioned is because it's Pacman Jones, and they're not going to spin it positively for him. For football fans who aren't wrestling fans, I doubt a large number of them are going to tune into TNA just to see Pacman. A lot of them don't want to see Jones again period and a lot of the response I've heard from this is a collective "meh". |

Seems like a waste of money for a non-wrestler who won't pop ratings.
I think TNA can be a great promotion, I just wish they'd stop doing potentially stupid shit like this and focus on the EXTREME positive they have to offer, some really great and talented young wrestlers.

The only reason it's getting mentioned is because it's Pacman Jones, and they're not going to spin it positively for him. That was kind of my point. TNA is wanting publicity out of this and except for their press release and an AP report, the publicity isn't good. This has been known for nearly a week now and none of the publicity has been what I'd call positive. Now they have 3 days to get some positive spin out of this before PacMan "debuts". |

I don't understand this. I first thought he'd just be brought in for publicity and appearances, but now everything I read basically is stating that he's going to wrestle. Since when did he get trained? Who trained him? He Can't wrestle, He can't do anything that could risk him getting injured so if he gets into the ring he'll be fired from the Titans. |
