Finally, I'll be able to watch ROH on tv. Truer words have never been typed! Never mind Monday, can I trademark the Wednesday Night War tagline? ROH vs. NXT vs. Lucha Underground, all airing at 8 PM? THIS is what WRESTLING is all about! Great time to be a WRESTLING fan. I'll watch ROH, catch NXT on the network later and Lucha Underground on Saturday.

He called Swarm a "WWE mark" ?!?!? LOL who is this newb?? ariesroode: I don't want to jump on you cause I like to think we're a close knit community here but you asked for a civilized conversation then call someone a mark (btw way off there), and yet your avatar and name are all about TNA so who would we assume is the mark? Anyways I'm a wrestling fan and always find something entertaining in every promotion. Heck I watch Booker T's Reality of Wrestling w/e I get the chance and that show sucks haha. So I would love to see TNA make it. I'm probably in the minority but I would like to see a inter-promotional "war" between ROH and TNA. But I'm also a realist and can see the writing on the wall. TNA is on life support right now. But thing's can change (and hopefully will). I remember a few years ago when Chikara was all the talk on these boards and look at them now. Here we see 2 companies which started around the same time going in different directions. TNA was handed a silver spoon and in most opinions have failed, while ROH has had to earn it's way to the where they are now. But as wrestling fans, I think we can agree on hoping for bright a future for all the promotions and wrestlers. BTW Hoping this TV deal helps out Filsinger Games a bit. Maybe a mention or two on the ROH show. Oh and Total Divas sucks. Was ok at first but now it's just stupid. (but I hate all reality shows so that's that)

TNA fans just assume if you aren't into TNA it's because you're stupidly blinded by the WWE somehow. It's the same argument far lefties have when you just aren't interested in their agendas. Not into far left ideals? Must be some bible beating bigot red neck who gets all their opinions from Fox News. Right? Not into TNA? Must be a stupid WWE mark. It's hardly a strong argument and I find it's best to avoid those types. I respect the loyalty to their Titanic and leave it at that.

I miss the days I could set my VCR and record about 12 hours of Wrestling a week, everything from WWE, TNA, MLW, IWA out of San Juan where I watched an ultimate X match about 2 months before TNA aired there's.

I just realized my statement and IWA could be taken as TNA bashing but it's just a statement. I'm a Wrestling Mark I'll brag about the good and criticise the bad. I just hate to see a great company brought down by management especially management from out side of the wrestling business, I'm about to sound like a WWE mark but look at the evidence, Billionaire Ted tried using all his money to by rating but Vince and his wrestling mind set kept trudging along and over came. Dixie has money and tries to buy rating, tried buy the same ratings as WCW maybe next year we'll see the same results, I truly hope not.

I honestly don't want TNA to go under, really hope they just get better management. The talent pool is amazing, they need to be used better.
But right now is a great time for wrestling. This week I watched Ring of Honor, RAW, NXT, Lucha Underground, New Japan, and then caught the tag match on Impact between the Wolves and Aries & Roode. Plus I watched 3 Prime Time Wrestling's on the Network. ROH/NJPW War of the World night 1 (watching night 2 tonight), A STARDOM show from March I think, the Jerry The King Lawler dvd, and re-read Jerry Jarrett's book. I have yet to get to the other show on Roku and online I watch in a week.

Nothing like complaining about people who generalize by generalizing. True many TNA fans think that way but a lot of that is hold over from when there were less visible companies out there so for the most part it was TNA or WWE. Not to mention many that attacked TNA were clearly WWE fans.
