From Gerweck.net:
I hope that TNA listens to Tomko and tapes the 1/4 Tokyo Dome show. It would be a cool setting and a nice change of pace for them. Plus, it's about time they start looking in to taking Impact out of Orlando.

From Gerweck.net: - TNA has cancelled the scheduled live events for 11/15 and 11/17 in Tel Aviv, Israel. No reason has been given but Mike Johnson reports that ticket sales were very low. As I said on the other thread. Does TNA even have a TV deal in Israel?

I think Israel gets Eurosport, then the answer would be yes.

I just feel obligated to once again say, "Vince Russo is an idiot."
This would be really cool if they did it. They really should hype this more than they are. It's a pretty big deal, I think. I can't understand why they aren't already hyping the bejeezus out of it.
I still don't think he's Sting's mystery partner.

Why would Booker T be the mystery partner? He said he wanted out of the business, and he got it.

After 10:00pm means its not really considered "mainstream" in the EU countries (or Israel). A 1 month delay would mean that the people watching it live might get confused by the current storylines as well.

Ah well the main reason Eurosport shows it after 10 pm is Eurosports own "child protection". They refuse to show pro-wrestling or any martial arts before 10 pm since this summer. I remember them showing some TNA PPV on prime time last christmas.

Tomko pushing TNA to show the 1/4 show from Tokyo is smart.
Tomko can see the glaring editing and horrible production values of a typical TNA show. New Japan is known for its high production values, great camera work, and in general great presentation.
Having the show taped, then dubbed with the commentary of Moody Jack and Hector Guerrero would be such an awesome show.
Do it TNA, it's your chance to present a bigger than life type of show without the abrupt camera work of your craptacular editing bay and camera crew.
He's talking about showing the 1/4 show instead of a weekly impact.
That's what he's saying not a typical impact just filmed in Tokyo, but the big 1/4 show.
Also i'd love to see Bernard/Tomko fight the Steiners

That's interesting, but I don't think pro wrestling has too much of an Israeli fanbase--most posters from other countries on here come from either Canada, UK, or Australia. I wonder how a "Wrestlecrap Latino" for lucha gimmicks could do?

Sorry, the title just reminded me so much...
#And I said, what about, Impact in To-ky-o, she said "I think I, remember the show and, as I recall I think, we both kinda liked it", and I said, "Well, that's, the one thing we got".
Surprised that Kong's got endorsements from Ki, Joe, Tenay AND Mantell. Not to knock her ability, I love her style...but it just seems like an odd mixture. Maybe Joe likes her for her size, Ki loves the way she hurts people, Mantell loves her big, scary, old-school badass look....and I dunno, maybe Tenay's sleeping with her.
Anyways, good news, bar the cancellation of Isreal's show. Keep it up.

Either she gives Tenay good Snu-Snu or she comforts him when the big meanie Jim Cornette talks to him in a way that Tenay does not approve of.

- Due to the holidays TNA will taping 3 days in a row at Universal Studios in December on the 3rd, 4th and 5th. Whoo Hoo! I'm going to be in Orlando the 4th and the 5th! Boo Ya! Also I'm not surprised Mantell is responsible for the signing of Kong. Tracy told me last weekend that Dutch is the one responsible for the women's division and that he's their biggest supporter there. So for those who hate the women's division, blame Dutch, if you like it, he gets the credit.

Her exact words were, "He's our biggest supporter there. He's the reason we have all that we have now."
Take what you will from that.
