Exactly why I loathe them. Years ago, inspired by one of our intrepid posters, I tried to make a video about their wasted talent. Several weeks later, my roommate told me I'd become depressed, and I'd gradually started drinking to excess literally every night, with yelling and weekly blackouts. So much talent, so much potential, so much waste. It was watching the slow torturous death of an art form. After maybe two months I felt like I'd lost a piece of my mind. Close examination of TNA had a Lovecraftian effect on my psyche.

Now I only watch TNA through Botchamania and Broken Hardy videos. My drinking returned to reasonable levels (for people like us :)), and my depression has been handled by increased medication.

TNA is a monster that ruins everything it touches. And it will never die.

Maybe you should not drink with your medications my friend. Hope things are better for you, alcohol is great depression not so.

Drinking with medication is probably what TNA has been doing for years. Probably why it was never effective.


What's next for our southern flower of a princess Dixie after all of this is done and folded? Are the nazis going to eat her brains or is she gonna be the Carter family's jester or receptionist? Pretty sure no one in the family would want her back in their business after all these gently caress ups.

Is Damien 'Aron Rex' Sandow out of this lovely company yet?

He's still on TV because of the tapings but he removed any reference to TNA from his Twitter during the lawsuit stuff, for what it's worth. If he doesn't show up on the Hardy thing next month and the subsequent taping he's likely gone.

does he leave with the belt? The most TNA thing would be let him leave with the Grand Championship and never mention it again.

This would be why Moose picked up Magnus' role as TNA's PR on Twitter.

No, the most TNA thing would be to keep the belt around long after the wrestler it was created for has left, and rename it six time.

What will the title be called this time next year, I wonder.

Speaking of Magnus, TNA sure did a great job of using him to try and put the final nail in the coffin of Sting's career. It obviously didn't work because Sting went on to WWE and no one gives a poo poo about Magnus.

Then it's safe to conclude that he's out. Good job, TNA.

Hey now, TNA put over Sting (and Styles harder than they ever did when he actually worked for them) over Magnus on the way out.

Coincidentally, the person who Sting actually put over on his way out was... current WWE talent Bobby Roode! :v:

She left a company that used her in a speaking role regularly and has a huge state of the art wrestling training facility for one that would throw her in the ring immediately and probably won't even pay her just because her husband didn't want to be a spaceman jobber.

She really wanted to wrestle and WWE wouldn't let her. TNA, thankfully, has no standards or concern for the safety of its employees

What does she study?

I have no basis for how good a school Full Sail is in the grand scheme of things. Does this seem like a thing where she chose Full Sail because it's the legit best for whatever she studies, or because it's tangential to WWE and could lead to a return?

For-profit colleges are never better than public / private non-profits. You might get the same benefits but the risks are a lot riskier.

Unless Maria has been doing technical stuff on the side, she's probably doing on-air broadcasting

It'd be funny if she's just trying to get a degree in game design and has nothing to do with NXT at all.

She will be doing her Master's in Entertainment Business.
