Team 3D is killing the X-Division for a reason...because they can. I don't mind for Team 3D burying the X Division just as long as it leads to MCMG getting over. And by over I mean cleanly beating Team 3D, without the twenty run-ins and etc.

Agreed. I always cringe when people go on about the "prestige" of fake championships. If the Stanley Cup was decided in a 4-way tornado football game, it would be a disgrace. A writer deciding which actor gets to wear with belt, makes no difference. ok, i said nothing about prestige, or about who gets to wear a plastic belt in my original comment. my point was that it was completely out of left field. "angle, you dont like nash? well try teaming with him!!!" oooohhh "sting, you team with---" "no, ill pick my partner"oooohhh the way the angle/sting feud has been built, the title is irrelevent to their matches, its more personal at this point. they might as well make it hair vs hair match (well, if angle had any), for all that any of it matters to the feud. nash, angle, and sting have issues with each other. just put em all in a ring and let em fight it out. everything doesnt have to have a "zany" gimmick to it. and if the belts mean nothing to the storylines, just get rid of them, altogether. and like i always post about TNA, i like their matches, and more than the WWE at this point. edit: look at the eddie/benoit celebrations after they won belts, and tell me "it doesnt matter" i actually think it works in with the story. angle is a mean heel who makes things way to personal and who cheats at will, but sting is the one who provoked nash into trying to get in the ring before sting attacked him. who knows what nash was going to do it shouldn't have ended in a dq. the heel had gotten away with the belt rightfully basically whether they acknowledged it outright or not. so cornette knowing decides to tip the odds against kurt at the next pay per view by making him tag with his on again off again friend that is currently extremely mad at him to defend against sting and ....

Robert Roode vs Fatu, ok but there was interference, the only justified interfernce of the night. Pus Christian killed it, he should not have went out. But then you'd bitch about Don West solo-commentating this match. I RARELY try and justify about wrestling especially TNA but it really seems as though you were watching the show LOOKING for things to be pissed about. I also find it ironic that you rip into Awesome Kong when you have Umaga in your sig since they were pushed the same way.

I think he already covered Umaga in his sig. Apparently, he was trying to do something for a look-alike contest. This is just me going off memory. Therefore, he wasn't really endorsing Umaga. 3. Yes. People will complain about everything. It's in their nature. 4. There is no 4.

I actually caught TNA last night, and Christian made a good play-by-play man for ONE reason. West is damn awful by himself. "WAIT A MINUTE, CHRISTIAN IS WALKING DOWN THE RAMP! HE HAS A LADDER! NOW HE IS PLACING THE LADDER UP BY THE ANNOUNCE TABLE! NOW HE IS WALKING TO THE ANNOUNCE TABLE! NOW HE'S PUTTING THE HEADSET ON AND SITTING DOWN AT THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!" This may be hyperbole, but whatever.
I instantly thought of Jim Ross when Tenay started going off on his tirade. JR spends his time in storylines getting the crap kicked out of him. The only time he got involved into a storyline when he had an opinion was only to solidify the Undertaker's biker heel run (Where Angle spotted him talking bad, Mr. McMahon wanted him to kiss his ass, Taker came in, told JR to show some respect, and shoved his face in there). I have yet to see Jim Ross say that a decision is ridiculous (YES HE HAS SAID IT, READ THE ENTIRE SENTENCE) and start to shout over to whoever the authority figure is and tell him that there's nothing to decide.
And one thing that makes me laugh about the X-Division/Team 3D thing is that I, and everyone else knows. Had this been two years ago, it would've been a Styles/Daniels vs. Team 3D feud, and I wouldn't have had a problem with that. As a matter of fact, I kinda miss the "I helped build the X-Division, and I'm going to protect it" AJ. In my opinion, the character he's portraying is okay too, but that AJ would make a lot of sense right now.
TNA isn't doing very well, but I'm not going to sit here and talk about everything and how it's all bad. I'm just going to say "They can do a lot better".
