I remember reading a report from WON or PWT that said that West had read a large chunk of negative feedback TNA was getting for their PPV's, and determined that some of them HAD to be plants. Now, if Russo said this, I'd chalk it up to ego. But with West, I feel like it was genuine, childlike enthusiasm for the product. The guy quite frankly deserves better than TNA.

Jeff Jarrett brought in english commentary and Scott Steiner - he pretty much knows exactly how to draw me in Global Force is more legit in my mind than TNA already

The guy in the freaky japanese mask that kind of looks like a sex doll must be The Great Muta? and this is hilarious.

Hijo Del Helmsley posted:West and Tenay were absolutely the best thing in TNA. Regardless of how dumb anything was, they would try 100% to bluff it out and talk it up. Let's not get crazy. Don West was a guy who was very fun at times, very passionate and a great salesman. Most of the time his commentary was like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyJU8As8hyQ Terrible acting with awkward delivery. He shouldn't be calling the Tokyo Dome.

Big Dave said that Jeff Jarrett wants 10-12,000 buys for Tokyo Dome. He talked about it and the NJPW TV show on AXS on Saturday's Sin Limite. He thinks that NJPW World will hurt the buyrate but not critically because the market for the English PPV is people who don't watch NJPW, not NJPW diehards.

I'm all for anything that will expand the fanbase, but I seriously doubt that many people who are currently unfamiliar with the product are going to give a new federation with no wrestlers they've heard of outside of possibly AJ Styles a try simply because JR is announcing it.

And even then, AJ is a fairly negligible draw in this context. I mean, he's a name because of TNA. TNA don't do good numbers. And I don't see even most TNA fans buying this show. Still wish them all the luck in the world if only to make NJPW bigger.

people bought an MMA PPV with 0.25 names on it because JR & Chael Sonnen did play-by-play for it, don't know how many buys it got but there was certainly interest generated on that alone.

That a follow up show with JR and Chael wasn't booked is a pretty good sign it bombed. Edit: Bombed in the relative sense that the interest they brought didn't translate into enough business to cover their cost. I'm sure the show did more buys on PPV with them than without.

Striker is a huge fan and will be really knowledgeable it's just that it's going to be cringe worthy when he says stuff actually out loud on broadcast.
