I know its not really a big deal, but ive been getting pretty 'angry' with the way the commentary team have been burying James Storm since he debuted in NXT. A few weeks ago Matthews made it seem like Roode absolutely squashed him in their match when it was a 50-50 match. This past week was the biggest example. They chose James Storm as 'most disappointing' wrestler in the tournament, yet he has the same amount of points as everyone else in his group. I know its a stupid thing to get annoyed over but I just find it ridiculous that they are treating him like this after everything he has done for them

They should be happy for Storm. He's one of the few actual homegrown TNA guys who have gone onto a bigger show and to my knowledge he hasn't trashed TNA.

Erasing all his accomplishtments and acting as though all he did was lose. Wouldn't surprise me if Ditzy and Gaburick ordered that to happen.

And they wonder why people want to see them fail so bad now.

Sticking AJ with people who could promo better than him is some of TNA's rare zen wisdom. Even if you're the best wrestler in the world, you might still need to learn how to talk. I also liked that run as a fan of his original total prick persona from his first year in the company Here's the thing though, Flair must have brushed off on AJ cause around the time, I remember AJ got a lot better on the mic. It's not that alien why guys like Orton and Batista got so much better so fast going from green guys to top guys when they were with Hunter and Flair. When you're with experienced guys with talent, they can teach you valuable things.

I have not watched much TNA and I do love a good trashy wrestling storyline but, my goodness, I've read through all these pages so far and so many things mentioned here sound like a nightmare. Can't imagine watching them play out live.

Thinking back on Jarrett's runs in the company is a weird exercise. In the early days, you could kind of excuse his being presented as a big deal, since TNA didn't have a very stable roster of full-time, already established stars yet, so they had to roll with the guy they knew would be there no matter what. Later on in his run, Jarrett did a solid of job of playing up his remarkable ability to play a heel who won by scheming, by cowardice, sometimes by dumb luck, and who got heat because he knew people hated that he was on top, so his very presence would grate on you. Even before his MMA Jarrett character, his final World Title run was a textbook example of how to draw heat by just being a complete jerk of a heel.
In between those periods, though, circa late 2003 through mid 2006? Things reached a completely unacceptable level.

Them not giving the ball to Monty Brown and running with him was one of their first big mistakes.
