And at least Rob Terry can get away with being a crap worker due to being a big hoss. Khoya isn't. I don't get Khoya for that reason. They way they book him, you'd think he would be at least 6'5 and around 300 lbs. But he is 6'2 and 265 lbs. Compared to Edge, he's 20 lbs bigger and three inches shorter. Why is Khoya treated like a hoss anyway?

Not to distract from the Goya talk, but is The Freak still in TNA? Or Knux? Rob Terry was released in December/January. Knux is still there but hasn't been on tv in months. I presume that means they'll be releasing him as well once his contract is up Which is a shame, Knux really got into the groove his last two-three months with the company. He looked like an unbelievable star with Austin Aries, all that main event potential Heyman saw in him years ago really showed.

They actually uploaded that Fallaway Slam on their official YouTube. That's embarrassing. The video description pretty much just sums up TNA as a whole for me: "Sometimes something so traumatic happens you just can't get over it.. IMPACT WRESTLING Airs on Destination America Friday Nights at 9/8c."

That is the worst fallaway slam I've ever seen.
And of course, they didn't edit it off a taped show.
Also, why does this guy sound like a chicken when he grunts?

It's like they're actively trying to distract you from what's going on in the ring. I know someone in the WWE board complained about the camerawork in NXT. THIS makes NXT's camerawork look like Boogie Nights.

Khoya has no business being on prime time tv. But because Rob Curry is visually impressive, TNA will trout him out and pray he doesn't accidentally kill anyone trying to wrestle.

After binge watching, yeah, I think he's managed to botch every attempt at a "Sky-high" he's done.
I'm typically a big fan of the move, and when done right is very fluid and nice looking. But good god. Just have The Revolution beat him down and kick his ass out already.

I did like that a common example of TNA booking confusion had a logical issue where James Storm and the rest of the Revolution were mad at Khoya for no reason instead of Abyss, who got pinned.
Even Abyss at this stage of his career is a better worker than Khoya.

I think that he was trying to be super powerhouse badass and just casually toss the guy overhead on the Fallaway Slam......too bad it just looked like shit.
