[...] Aaron covered how dumb Foley’s farewell after a month in the company was. His promo was good, though, even [...]

TNA’s new tagline:

TNA: Causing Less Despair

It caused me less despair this week, actually. Sorry I handed off a really talky show to you, at any rate.

Having been in the Chicago audience for BFG, I concur with Randall that Impact Zone audiences are a signficant problem.

The crowd in Chicago was hot, the arena was nearly sold out and I think that energy had a positive impact (no pun intended) on the quality of the show.

And while I’m not a fan of Nash in the ring (and let’s face it, who really is) I can see the logic behind the match-up with Joe.

I do think TNA deserves some credit for basically carrying a story line over several months. Joe and Nash developed for months. Joe versus Booker (which was really the start of this young/old angle) started months a little while back as well.

I prefer story lines that develop over time, so I’m glad TNA is trying to keep something going.

AJ’s promo at the beginning was great. Booker’s backstage stuff…not so much. What they hell are they thinking?

Impact Zone crowds always suck. All the more reason for them to get the hell out of there. A bunch of tourists are more likely to cheer old-school stars like Sting and Nash no matter what they’re doing.

Good and not inaccurate observations, but we could at least all give them props for pushing strongly to their HD/Live episode next week like it was actually something significant. Most times, not even the WWE condescends to do that for their PPVs.

I’ll send you some holy water to wash the shit stains Impact left in your eyes. Do you want UPS or DHL?

(1) As I look at him, Morgan needs to hold himself a little lower to the ground, because he can’t lose 5 inches in height. He just looks exceptionally awkward in his frame. A guy like Nash is built for seven feet. A guy like Morgan is either a workout warrior or a roid freak, and that’s about all keeping him from looking like Gheorghe Muresan.

(2) Nash’s promo started out typical Nash, which I was digging. Unfortunately, he had to resort to cheap heat and garbage to get the retards in the crowd to give the proper response. I think I hate TNA crowds almost as much as the promtoion itself.

(3) Yes, pretty much every one of those inconsistencies occurred to me. This promotion is infuriating.

I saw what you typed but you could have just typed “TNA suck” and repeat ten times.
