- It seems as if TNA may be out to get ROH. TNA has booked a house show at the North Fork Theatre in Westbury, Long Island, on 2/22 which is the same day ROH will be running at the Deer Park Community Center in Long Island. This is the second time TNA has done this recently. They booked and upcoming show in Troy, OH on 1/25 the same day that ROH is in Dayton, ROH as well.

Interesting...I guess...I wonder how they'll do...

I would rather go to the TNA show.
Now, I know I'll get flayed alive for that, but all the problems with impact, too many screwjob endings, too many comedy skits, none of these things happen at house shows.
I've been to two TNA house shows and they've been among the best live shows I've ever seen.

Weird.
Maybe TNA thinks piggybacking with ROH would help with House shows or something.

Stunts like this will show TNA just how loyal the ROH fan base is, especially in the Tri-State area..
I predict that ROH will outdraw 'em at both shows and then TNA will see that they made a mistake...

If TNA did the shwo in the afternoon, where peopel could hit both shows, it'd be a win for both companies. Have one show in the afternoon then the other have their show at 8. That would be a good idea

I've been to two TNA house shows and they've been among the best live shows I've ever seen. I'm not one to bash another's opinion, but I've already talked about it in numerous threads.. House Shows in general are the shits, plain and simple. Be it WWE, TNA, no one is going to risk goin' out there and blowin' a knee.. I don't blame them for this mentality, I would do just enough to get by as well. I can understand goin' to the TNA show if you are a more mainstream fan looking to see the Big Names, but if you are more concerned with solid in ring work, ROH IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO! Really, all the guys in ROH constantly bust their ass, because for 99% of the guys on the roster, this is their big payday.. If you wanna see what Joe can do, watch his standout matches in ROH, not a 9 minute house show match with AJ Styles... |

This really may not be a good idea for them.
I doubt they're "out to get" ROH, and are likely just thinking "Hey, there'll be a lot of wrestling fans in the area, let's siphon a few to our show".
But, still, two shows on the same day can be risky, especially since neither company will promote the other one's show.

That would be a good idea That's a perfect idea, and also a very respectable way for both companies to get over in a certain area... But it seems very clear to me that TNA at this point is just goin' for ROH's jugular. ROH booked this date first, and it's just common courtesy to let 'em have it... |

At least former ROH guys in TNA can have a reunion. Maybe a picnic or something...Can you imagine Joe on a picnic? Blanket laid, birds twittering, Joe Muscle-Busting stray ducks and Homicide just laying on the blanket eating some potato salad. I'd pay top dollar to see TNA do that.

What about an egg race? The Briscoes would have to be careful not to MAN UP! too hard, thus pushing the egg off of the spoon...

seems kinda unprofessional of TNA to book this... but business is business... so things like that are gonna happen
TNA will probably outdraw ROH just because of the name recognition. more power to em
