So wait. Senshi oriiginally gets the case where he was going to be fire, only to put in his notice the next day, so they switched the Case to Chris Daniels so he'd get the case where he got fired. TNA then announces that Chris Daniels had been fired, even though in real life is probably isn't, and Senshi keeps working TV tapings, despite the fact he was supossed to have really left.


My head hurts.

TNA's "logic" has a way of doing that to people.

Why didn't they go the logical route and have Senshi take the "loser" case

This is TNA...

You did that wrong. Here, let me:

THIS...is TNA. [/James Earl Jones-esque voice]

There.

[rrm15]

Interesting whether work or shoot.

[humorousled]

This is a work. It would be very stupid to let the Fallen Angel go. He is one of the original stars that TNA had and he is one of the performers that people think of when they think of TNA.

Yeah, really. That's a gimme. Everyone gets fired on TV. Hell, even WE were all fired on TV.

*chortles*

Seriously, he's just being "fired" so we can see him return as Curryman. Maybe we'll see him by Currymas!

Well, it could be that the whole "Daniels fights Senshi for the case" was planned, cause they had something planned if this is indeed a work.

And, yeah, I'm as confused about Senshi as you are.

[renzino]

I think it's a work.

If this is true, TNA wasted someone who should be in the main event scene. Honestly, by this point he should have been put over by Sting and given a heavyweight title reign.

It's a complete work. Wrestlers aren't really fired on TV like that.

And they probably did the thing where he gets Senshi's case because they planned the storyline before Senshi gave his notice. Besides, Senshi being "fired" would simply lead to him not appearing anymore. Daniels being "fired" is actually leading to something.

I did assume it was a work since it was a major TV angle, but with the recent decision to let wrestlers leave, I figured there was a remote possibility that it was legit. Plus, I wouldn't put it passed the brains at TNA to do something that stupid.

[Ace Diamond]

The problem is, even if this is a work...I don't care.

I mean, yes I like Christopher Daniels and his work but...this storyline doesn't make me care...at all. I can't explain why either, but I'm just going to say that if all they're going to do is bring him back as curryman and then he doesn't go anywhere on the card, then there still isn't any point.

[Madagascar Fred]

the only point to this would be him reappering with another gimmick (let´s say "Curry Man"), to freshen him up...otherwise this SL wouldn´t make any sense IMO

[Blindkarevik]

There were definitely many better ways to handle this than they actually did.

I kinda figured they could go through with the Senshi being fired thing... then turn the attention away from the "who's getting fired" thing to Petey getting the World Title Shot instead of Steiner and build that angle right away.

With Senshi getting fired from the pink slip.. Cornette could've come out and said that since Senshi's gone, the loophole is gone and since Daniels and Skipper were supposed to never appear as XXX again, they would have a match where the loser is fired.

Have Daniels confront Senshi as he's gathering his things, Daniels screams at Senshi saying it's all his fault. How he was stupid to grab that particular briefcase and now they're all going to suffer for it.

Then in the Daniels/Skipper match.. Senshi comes back and costs Daniels the match and is fired on the spot. Then, with Senshi being legitimately gone from the company they could keep Daniels out as long as they have been planning to and do whatever they want to bring him back.

Plus the fact that Low Ki would be appearing on the indies again would give the angle some legitimacy.

I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said before though.

[Z-A Sandbaggin' Son of a b!%@h]

It's working, no matter what it is. People are confused and wondering what's going on. That's how things are supposed to be. We aren't all supposed Know right away what's goign to happen. I think this is awesome either way.

I'm not confused, I'm apathetic, there's a difference. Granted I'm just one person but I bet there are others like me who feel the same way, just as there are probably an equal number who are confused, yet interested.

Well, TNA has previously had a "loser of the match gets fired" scenario with Eric Young. Young was back the next week doing something stupid. However, if in this instance, Senshi had the case with the pink slip in it, and he never shows up again, that would add some legitimacy to the stipulation for a change.

you think people are going to check on when a bunch of indy dvds have “(Due to copyright restriction, only still photos of this match appear)” right next to Daniels' matches?
