When I first saw the New Age Outlaws come out as Voodoo Kin Mafia and bad mouth the WWE and DX, I just thought it was a stupid stunt TNA was trying to pull. But believe me, TNA has got all the attention it wanted, thanks to 'VKM', the WWE fans were chanting VKM and TNA chants during the Rosie Vs Trump crap and Vince McMahon just became sad after he came to know that TNA is WWE's competetion. I have started liking VKM, I thought both of them are better on the mic then DX and have the entertainment aspect, VKM is not two washed up wrestlers pretending to be degenerates as they have helped TNA get WWE's attention by creating one of the most successful angles in TNA......'VKM Vs VKM'. I know a lot of people here will disagree with VKM being cool, but I really wanna know what are your true opinions about VKM, I know smarks deep down inside your heart....you love Voodoo Kin Mafia but are not able to accept it.VKM! and TNA! chants on RAW www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czwpn_ADN0sVKM Alamo Challenge www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPWiKrdQlBQ

As I've said before, I'm really neutral towards them. They don't ruin my viewing experience, but they don't enhance it much, either.

Yeah dude, but they're better than DX and BG James mic skills are superb. I have become a fan of VKM  |

I enjoy them until they make fun of HBK working a light schedule. No one in TNA should ever say someone in WWE has a light schedule. I could go to universal studios twice a month to do cut a promo.

to be honest, I'm starting to enjoy them. when they're not bitching about WWE (which, I guess, is most of the time) they can be pretty funny... not as funny as, say, the PCS, but damn funny none the less

Let's put it this way: the fact this entire angle isn't undisputedly Wrestlecrap and, if TNA can get out of the gutter, will probably be seen favorably by wrestling history is an achievement in its own.

Love them? Hell no. They're okay. I just hate it how they're calling out people who they know aren't going to respond and try to act tough (it's really not even that. It's the sheep in the iMPACT Zone mindlessly chanting "VKM!" because they think they're so cool for going against the corporation. That's what really gets to me.
But I'd be lying if I said they weren't pretty effective. Now the WWE crowd has something other to chant other than "boring". They can promote the other company now, and possibly force the WWE to up their game, which I find hilarious and great all at once. So in closing, yeah, I'd say after looking at the positives and negatives, I'm pretty neutral. (I'll also admit that I like their ironic humor--making fun of stupid skits while doing one. They are doing that on purpose, right?)

Put it this way.
I know that everyone has their opinion on VKM, and it isn't good for a lot of people. Plenty of people have said how stupid it is and how bad it makes TNA look.
But the fact that people were chanting VKM at Raw during a lame segment means that it worked. I don't think VKM is all that great myself (I do think some of it is funny, but not all of it). But the fact that an audience that was NOT the Impact Zone was chanting VKM means that it worked.

I've been a big fan of VKM ever since the angle started. I think it's great they are getting the attention of the WWE. And that fans are chanting their name at WWE shows. Go VKM!

Yeah, the VKM chants at raw most likely got under Vince's skin. That was one of their goals.

The main goals should be to increase their fanbase, ratings, and profits.
Being irritating should be one of the least concerns.

VKM sucks. Their skits are every bit as bad as DX's- if not worse.
Let's face it. If you take all the pathetic attempts at humor away, Shawn Michaels is one of the all time greats in the ring. HHH is certainly interesting to watch.
On the other hand, you've got one half of the Smoking Gunns and Jeff Jarrett's roadie- neither of whom qualify as exciting in ring performers.

They've had a couple of quotes that I thought were kind of funny. "Come out with your pants up" comes to mind. All in all, it seems like they're trying too hard for an angle that can't possibly have a resolution, though.
I guess if they're getting their own chants during crappy RAW segments, they're doing their job.
We shall see how this turns out.

Have the ratings increased because of them? No. But they are getting chants so that is something. I just hate that TNA has to focus on WWE more than there own product.
