When I first saw them two weeks ago, I kinda thought to myself, "Who's
playing the part of Jerry Saggs?" I vaguely remember Brian Knobbs going solo
at least a few years back because Jerry Saggs had died or had a stroke, or
something bad had happened to permenantly incapacitate him from ever
wrestling again.

What's up with that???

Nobody has ever heard of Jerry Sags getting incapacitated, at all? And if
so, they aren't suddenly wondering why all of a sudden he's made a
miraculous recovery?

According to this, no such thing occurred:

From what I've been able to gather, the Boys were in some kind of match
against Hall and Nash, and apparently it turned into a shoot, with Sags
getting hurt bad enough at the hands of Scott Hall that he retired. Hall was
reported to be drunk at the time.

This all may be true, or maybe it's not, but I swear that I remember several
years back that he was effed up!

In 1996, they were tricked by the nWo into thinking they were going to
become members but were attacked as soon as they received their shirts. Sags
had been injured previously in a shoot-altercation with an intoxicated Scott
Hall and he had to retire due to this injury. Following Sags's retirement,
Knobbs became a singles wrestler and entered WCW's hardcore division.

Scott Hall is skell. If he isn't drunk, he's doped up on pills. The second
TNA announced Beer Money versus Hall and Waltman, I twittered Dixie Carter
and advised her to have a backup team since Hall has a bad habit of no
showing or backing out. He did it once to TNA already. And guess what
happened at the PPV tonight? Hall pussied out leaving Waltman to hold the
bag with Nash. Backstage chatter put Waltman at not wanting to do the match
either, but apparently did anyway (this is the first PPV from TNA I have not
ordered since 2006. Besides the price increase the matches didn't seem
worth it).

Then there was the reaction of the 6 sided ring replaced with the 4 sided
one. It got booed. Hogan and Bitchoff pretty much gave the TNA fans the
finger and said "get used to the change." I don't know what Dixie is
thinking. Alientaing the fans is not the best idea.

It's only a matter of time before Hogan books himself and takes the
heavyweight title (ala Foley) and holds onto it forever.

I've never much cared for Bitchoff. And now they are seriously talking
about doing a live show on Mondays. TNA isn't ready yet. They started a
bunch of stuff on that live show some weeks back and have had very little
follow through, including Moore and Hardy. Hall and Waltman are junkies and
are not reliable and need to go.

And now "Anderson"? What happened to the new talent getting a decent push?

Raymond will be the first to say it, the main event was a screw job Russo
ending.

So Hall pulled his usual, thats the 3rd time he's done it now. And if Hogans
got the reins you know he won't get fired for it like he did the last 2
times. The last time was with Dusty Rhodes as Director Of Authority who
rumour says told him to fuck off to his face. The time before that Jeff
Jarrett fired him personally to make sure there'd be no confusion.

The 6 sided ring is definately gone? How did they do it or don't I want to
know?

Thats a foregone conclusion with Nash holding a FOF case for the title,
he'll win, challenge Hogan & it'll be Fingerpoke Of Doom all over again.
Moore and Hardy. Hall and Waltman are junkies and are not reliable and
need to go.
I'd also like to remind you its pretty much 99% certain Hardy is going to
jail for several years shortly.

Who?

Actually I might not even watch it from what I've read here, I said if the 6
sided ring went I stopped reviewing new TNA & I mean it.

Ken Anderson, aka Mr. Kennedy.

Personally, I'm glad they got rid of the stupid six-sided ring. BUT, they
would be better served listening to the fans. If there's a backlash, they
may be in for some rough seas. Also, I agree with you Kevin in that it's too
soon to go against the WWE on Monday nights. Ideally, they should wait until
there's a huge lull in the TV sports landscape, because honestly, people
will probably watch one and DVR the other, if they don't DVR them both.

It may be nearing sink or swim time for TNA. And whether he realizes it or
not, Vinnie Mac needs the competition.

It was just there at the PPV. They wanted to do an angle where the 6 side
ring would be destroyed in a match, but felt it might go over bad with the
fans. To that I saw WHAT? I would have LOVED to have seen that kind of a
show. Fuck you Russo

Well, it's true. I haven't seen it yet...but if I can find a pic, I'll post
it.
