Just thought I'd start this thread to see if anyone else has anything positive to say about TNA in 2009.
For starters, they certainly showed that they have the cojones to sign Hogan of all the people. The jury is out on whether or not it will work for the long term.

For the most part, right now it's the best wrestling show going on a consistent basis.
They've got a lotta quality guys I like, Daniels,AJ, Angle, Beer Money, Wolfe; the list goes on.
I also usually enjoy the Knockout segments as well.
Overall for the most part, a good, entertaining show.

AJ as the champ is a good move.
Booker T is gone.
They realize that they have too many PPV and will have less once their current PPV deal expires.
They have more than one wrestling style.
Nigel/Desmond is awesome.

They arguably have the best roster talent today.
Their past few PPV shows have been very solid for the most part.
They're trying hard to improve, and to give fans what they want.

I like that the faces and heels come out of separate tunnels

They're the most all-around entertaining wrestling show in years, providing just the right balance of storylines and in-ring action. They're just one hot angle and the right promotional tidal wive to really take off.

It has the best mix of entertainment and wrestling among the shows I've seen so far, and puts quality shows on a regular basis.

I enjoyed Desmond Wolfe's debut. I hadn't seen anything by Nigel up until his debut in TNA.

I really enjoy Hamada, Stevie, and Daffney, and I can't help but like Eric Young. I dunno why, I just enjoy him in his current role. It just clicks.

It isd the closest thing to the attitude era since it is still rated TV-14.
Improved since the beginning of the year.

The six sided ring is cool, and I really like Christopher Daniels and Kurt Angle.

They still want to be a wrestling company and there's a hunger there. The WWE has neither of these things.
Also, there's no magic camera backstage like in WWE. I've missed a few shows of late so I hope that hasn't changed.
Also thier name sounds like boobs and butts. *idiocracy answer*

They're currently in a period of probably their best all-around booking since 2005, which has been reflected in an improved, more varied product.
They're good about addressing poor booking decisions; if they feel something's getting a negative (or a lack of a) reaction, they usually move pretty quickly to change it or tweak it (copyright Mick Foley, Inc.), essentially admitting "Hey, what the @#$% were we thinking when we came up with that? Sorry, here's something that's hopefully at least slightly better."
Case in point most recently would be the de-emphasis of Suicide's connection to the TNA video game, and Brutus Magnus not being saddled permanently with the stupid gladiator gimmick.

Best wrestling company today. I think that's a positive enough comment.
