Nothing to be butthurt about, they just said something that people had been saying for ages. What's next, people saying "the sky is blue" and have a few saying "nooooo sometime it's gray!".

It wouldn't annoy me if the Knockouts match quality was better. However stuff has a tendency to be really bad because Gail is the only one left who I would say is a genuine talent. Brittany is shit, Madison needs a good wrestler to have a good match with, Angelina is just difficult to watch and Velvet is almost as bad as Rosa Mendez. Sure Jessica Havok is coming in but you just know that TNA is just going to TNA it all up.

Yeah, if this was 2009 or so, whenever Kong was one of the best booked heels in wrestling, woman or man, then yeah, it'd be more applicable, but here, it feels silly.

There were a few spots (the finish in particular) where I could see that getting chanted but yeah, that is pathetic when you consider the number of quality Diva's matches in NXT alone.

I think when those guys were chanting that, they weren't thinking of NXT, just the main roster, personally I don't think either division is doing that well right now. As far as those chants go, at least they aren't as bad as "you can't wrestle", "what" chants or when they chant a guy's former gimmick("husky harris", "albert", etc.).

Knockouts in their prime? Absolute truth. Knockouts 2014? Ehhhhh.

I'd still say the main roster has had better matches though not as memorable. Yeah, I agree both main divisions are in the pits.

Eh those chants were harmless. Couple guys tried to get something started and it failed.
No less laughable then the couple of guys on Sunday who sounded like they were chanting boring during the Passion of the Cena.
Besides 5 year old "Lets go Cena" kid blew them both away and he was by himself.

The only KO better than the divas (well, the ones who wrestle) is Gail Kim. But she';s not just a top KO; she's one of the best talents in the world, no matter the gender.
AJ is great. Paige is a good wrestler. Natalya is great. Nikki and Brie have improved leaps and bounds. And the NXT lineup is brilliant as far as divas go.

"At certain times, on a week-to-week basis, we're still able to put out a better woman's match than on WWE's shows, but this can vary of course and the overall quality isn't a patch on the hey-day of the Knockouts" is a bit of a mouthful.

Yeah, at one point it'd be valid, but with NXT, along with AJ, Paige, Nattie & Naomi doing some good shit, whereas TNA have Velvet Sky being useless, it means f*** all.

Considering they wasted their "THIS IS AWESOME" chants for Bram and Abyss going through thumbtacks. Again. They felt they needed something new to chant. Take away Gail Kim and you have a roster of Knockouts couldn't even hang with the golden age of Knockouts. And some of them were around that time.

Just like everything else in TNA, the chant was aimed at past glories.

Take away Gail Kim, and you have a roster that could barely hang with the Divas division about three years ago. Shit, at their worst, at least they had Beth, Natalya, and Alicia Fox.

Its funny that many people thought that the allure of watching the NYC shows was to see TNA ripped on by this 'hardcore' wrestling crowd, instead they somehow got every TNA lover into one room.
