I have seen the "you hated them in tna so you cant like them now" posts at an absurd frequency...as if being in a company they hate wouldnt have an negative affect the wrestler.

I think it's more of saying a wrestler has been awful for the last ten years (i.e. Eric Young), where now that he's in NXT he's suddenly decent?

Pictured: A man who has no idea what he's talking about. The way he seems to describe TNA's so-called "bullies", I'm actually still not sure if he was calling them bullies or condoning bullying other wrestling fans and then "hoping he didn't insult anybody" in the same ridiculous run-on sentence.

Of all the things with crazy TNA fans, this is the one I really don't get. Of COURSE the wrestlers on TNA were good! Yeah, some of them sucked. Hernandez comes to mind. But most of them were great and those that weren't were often in the mix with guys that were and could make them look good. Its THE SHOW that sucked. THE WRITING AND THE BOOKING. The wrestlers had nothing to do with it.

The wrestlers had nothing to do with it. No TNA fan will ever admit that, because it means that no amount of their fantasy booking or proposed talent acquisitions are worth a drat unless the company completely rebrands from top to bottom. It means that TNA Mecca favourites EC3 and Eli Drake and Bram are never, ever, ever going to be stars as long as they work for TNA in its current incarnation, which is completely the case.

Man, what the hell is EC3 going to do when TNA finally goes? I can't imagine him going back to NXT with the rest of the Impact exodus, both because of how he was treated in developmental the first time and, uh, incompatibility with the performance enhancements he's clearly on. He's too old to be a Juice Robinson NJPW young lion, and I don't think he's got the reputation and experience to take the AJ Styles route as an expensive, steady indie hand. What's left, tagging in ICW with Rockstar Spud? Would Ring of Honor have any interest in him? He's a moron for putting all his eggs in Dixie's basket, but I'd still like to see him successful somewhere after the promotion finally dies.

Personally I'm really curious if Bobbo Lashley comes back to the Fed. That'd certainly be interesting. The one I'm really sad for is Storm. Man did he blow it super hard. I hope his bridges didn't get burned entirely in that whole episode.

With EC3 he's unfortunately in the position of being the new Brutus Magnus. I wouldn't rule out an NXT run, particularly if its around the time of the next batch of call ups and they need bodies to take jobs, but I don't see him being in a major position in any other company. His look and gimmick might have some legs in Mexico, but in general he's not really a good enough worker to get a big opportunity.Sanguinia posted:Personally I'm really curious if Bobbo Lashley comes back to the Fed.

I liked the comment I read during Catrina's iama that suggested Ec3 go to Lucha Underground as Ethan Cueto 3.

This rules. Contact The Boobsquote:In the current episode of Pro Wrestling 24/7 entitled Meltzer Madness we intentionally stated that the Wrestling Observer and F4w did not recognize the TNA Titles. This is not a fact, just as Meltzer’s reporting of TNA being evicted from their former location in Nashville was not a fact, but a rumor.
