I like TNA but why not just rename the damn thing to Total Nonstop Angle already. How many freaking times do they need to show him in some stupid skit backstage? Every chance they had they would cut to the back to show him and it was annoying as hell. Also Sabin and Shelley seemed WEAK on the mic.

I agree with you on all those backstage skits, but IMO if they didn't have Angle or Borasch selling them then they would suck much, much more. |

booking is still atrocious How so? We had two good tournament matches featuring four great talents (Kaz, Storm, Cage, Harris). And a main event with the two top tag teams, both of which are over, fighting for the tag titles that went to a clean finish. What's atrocious about that? |

To be honest, I find them both unwatchable. I'll give TNA the nod, though, because it seems like the WWE doesn't even care these days. But their shows still feel like a giant clustersmurf to me (when I actually watch).

TNA always cures my Insomnia as I fell asleep again during a Chris Harris match. TNA will never be better than WWE if they still have Tenay/West doing commentary. They ruin it for me. Oh, they need to cut their mics during promos. We know the heel is lying or exaggerrating, Tenay. Shut the f--- up. Then explain all the outrage for Brother Ray burying the MCMG & The X Division in a promo, or a bunch of other stuff heels say. |

They should make a TNA Fantasy game, since Angle and Borash would have gotten 674 points tonight in appearances. I will give TNA this -- I loved how Eric Young said that Sting's partner was going to be the Shockmaster. Because the Shockmaster actually WAS Sting's partner back in WCW. That was an amazing reference! Proof that major companies read the WC boards. |

But at-least Angle is entertaining screeen-hog, Vince's act is totally played-out.
The previous two Impacts were quite meh but were no worse than RAW. This week Impact was actually good again and totally owned Vince's crap.
Impact is usually better than RAW just because RAW is usually unimpressive. Watching RAW live blows, it is only good when I can fast-forward thru the recaps, commercials, and crap on DVR.

In my opinion, TNA's tag matches are alot better than WWE's tag matches. TNA's are more balanced while WWE's has the weakest face getting beaten up for 3/5 of the match before the hot tag. Lol the basic fundamental of tag team wrestling is to build up heat for a hot tag. |

Pros for TNA, since everyone already did the cons:
- Women's Division
- Main event scene
- Samoa Joe
- Robert Roode slowly improving
- Tag division
- Recognizable champs who are truly living at the top, instead of three equal champs
- Multiple turns for Team 3D prevents them from getting stale.
- X-Division

I couldn't get into the show this week. I was watching it with a couple of friends who are casual fans.
MY cousin was like man "why is tna so lame, the acting is just lame. Man wtf kurt angle and the dudley boys?"
yeah i pretty much agree with that.
It was okay, I just couldn't get into the show. samoa Joe sucks and I can't watch him wrestle.
The best matches were The opener and the closer.
Tenay and West need to shut up during every promo it was very glaring. Bobby Roode hates women. oh yeah don't take that gail kim won't stand for it.
it's just annoying

I gotta say the Angle and JB interrogation skits where some of the best skits I've seen in quite a long time, everyone of them was funny and I was wondering who would show up next and with what wacky Mystery Partner idea. I'm also wondering now if Jay Lethals gimmick is that he actually thinks he's Macho Man.  |

No, but it should be noted that people are complaining about that, too. that is true. i have to give the advantage still to tna in this respect, because the person who is taking up a lot of screen time is an actual wrestler and the skits were all adding to the build up of the main event feud. |

People like Harris. He gets a pretty decent crowd reaction.

Then explain all the outrage for Brother Ray burying the MCMG & The X Division in a promo, or a bunch of other stuff heels say. That was mostly before the X-Division got a chance to fight back. I've thought it was a pretty good angle for a little while to get the division over, but if they had just lost right off the bat, I'd be pissed. |
