They really weren't doing all that bad with him. Of course, he shouldn't be anywhere near the main event, but the guy was at least understandable. A lot of better than what they're giving us now to be honest. If they bring him back as a babyface though (which was the plan) I don't see him helpin them.

Just you wait till he comes back. With Jarrett/Angle/Russo together it could reach realms of suckiness never even dreamed of before.

Jarrett's absence is not the reason. The refusal to focus on home-grown and indy talent is the reason. Maybe, just MAYBE if they stopped pushing every ex-WWE employee over their established stars this wouldn't be a problem. And remember, this is the same company that jobbed out pretty much the top guy in their company to Shannon Moore.

Or the wonderful coincidence that he founded the company and was always booked as a main eventer when he wasn't? I think him being the champ for so long really made people want to see him lose it. And he was a main eventer in WCW before TNA existed They wanted to see him lose it because they were sick of seeing him with it. And Russo was heading WCW's creative team while Jarrett was headlining WCW pay-per-views. And now Russo has a job with Jarrett in TNA. Coincidence?

Can we at least hold off on saying that Russo has killed TNA until he books a Christy Hemme On A Pole match?

Jarrett actually never left. He handles the buisness end of stuff.

With TNA booking major shows in different places, a bunch of deals with a cell phone company, Maxim, iTunes, & more, steady ratings, and such, I don't see where the whole "TNA is dead" thing comes from? Quality? Then every fed has died at least twice before.

TNA sucks now because of Vince Russo. WWE was the "sports-entertainment" wrestling show. What set TNA apart was that they were very centered around the wrestling. Now Russo is just making it another sports-entertainment show and basically making it WWE on a shoestring budget.
They need to can him and give the book to Jim Cornette.

TNA's hardly dead (yet). I just think their shows have gone down in quality since Russo took over.

And he was a main eventer in WCW before TNA existed Yea but he was a Main eventer for WCW during the worst days of WCW. So they doesn't really give jarrett much credit.
