You have to hand it to VKM

[Flexy Lexy]

For all the flack they get, if I told you last year that the biggest story in wrestling would be Brian James and Monty Kip Sopp, who would believe me?

They can't work as well as they used to, but they can still stir up controversy like their Attitude Era heyday. Plus, they have to be driving the real VKM off the wall (and I'm not even a TNA loyalist)

Am I looking at this the right way or are they controversial in an "X-Pac Heat" way?

[rrm15]

Eh. Tonights skit was kind of funny, I thought. And idk if I'd call them the BIGGEST story this year...

[MGH]

I don't think they're close to the top story in wrestling this year myself.

[OtisMaximus]

I just can't get into this... to me it seems pointless... They seem no different then the Sega Kid on Youtube giving his line of bull...
It's even worse when they are less funny then DX and do all the same things.

I don't believe you now.

No one. And they'd be right.

Their attempts to be controversial rivals that of Kent Jones.

Everyone's talking about them so their task is effective.

[EJS]

When most of the people are talking about how much you're wasting everyone's time, that's the exact opposite of effective.

well let's see: I actually watch their segments but I fast forward through Team 3D's long-boring segments.

Yeah, but I haven't watched Impact for about a month now because of that crap.

Not that I made a decree or something it's just that I don't go out of my way to watch it. In fact, I forget about it.

[HRH The KING]

Why, what did they say tonight?

[JMA]

I don't really care about them.

[Andrew is Good]

It has got people talking, but so did David Arquette winning the belt.

My main problem with it is it can't be successful in the long run I feel, because they're trying to feud with people who aren't feuding back with them.

I think the storyline itself might be actually coming to an end though with them declaring victory, despite getting very little or no response. Which is good, like, The James Gang can be funny, and they are underrated I feel. I respect them a great deal, I do. Probably with all the VKM bashing I've done, people may not realize that I respect the hell out of both men for what they've accomplished in wrestling. I just feel that this storyline was really bad, and helped out nobody.

I always liked them as the New Age Outlaws. They may not've been the best tag team in history, but they were still pretty solid. The VKM vignettes make me laugh. It's when they show up in the ring demanding Shawn and Hunter face them for a $1 million shoot fight that it's stupid.

[emoney3265]

You know what guys? Just because all of you hate them... I LIKE THEM. They can still entertain with any gimmick so I don't care. Their skits aren't hilarious but some parts make me chuckle.... chuckle.

The only point of VKM was to stir the pot. Considering how WWE is going to stop doing press-conferences because of VKM chants, then they were successfull.

I hate how everyone dumps on anything that isn't putting younger guys over, or building up to a PPV match etc. Just watch and enjoy.

It's not that simple, what may be enjoyable to you, may tune someone else out of watching it. I personally don't care for them, but if they did accomplish one thing it was the stoppage of the press conferences, and they should mention that maybe on the PPV on Sunday or in the weeks to come on Impact.
