That's right everyone. Last month, it was officially announced that the former Total Nonstop Action/Impact Wrestling merged with the greatest project in the history of our sport, Global Force Wrestling! We know that a merger is just the superior company absorbing the far inferior one, and I refuse to let us pretend otherwise. As such, come here for all discussion of all things Global Force! Link to the previous Global Force Wrestling Discussion Thread (requires the Global Force Network): https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3626161&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=1 Videos Discussing Global Force Wrestling from Noted Idiot Poster MassRanTer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7e3SflTCW0w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgOyWtF5xt4 In April of 2014, Jeff Jarrett announced that he was going to change the world of wrestling with an elite batch of wrestlers, later announced to be the likes of List of GLOBAL FORCE CHAMPIONS, BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE SPECTACULAR JEFF AND KAREN JARRETT: GFW Global Champion: THE INCOMPARABLE, UNSTOPPABLE Magnus (who defeated NXT Champion Bobby Roode to win the title, proving Global Force > NXT) GFW NEX*GEN Champion: Cody GFW Women's Champion: Christina Von Eerie GFW Tag Team Champions: Nobody is worthy of holding them. Tapings may or may not have occured to change these. Global Force Wrestling is also featuring the corpse of TNA's titles, but let's face it, none of those can stand up to the Supreme Talent of Global Force Wrestling. Total Nonstop Action has #JoinedTheForce, World of Sport will soon follow, and it is about goddamn time for all of us to as well.

So how long does the GFW belt last as a separate title until they unify the titles?

Every time I hear things about TNA its things like "LAX is back, but they replaced the best guy of the three with someone who sucks because he's too busy being great in New Japan." Its pretty amazing.

the best tna moment will forever be when they wrote an entire storyline and marketing campaign about getting the MAIN EVENT MAFIA back together despite all of them working for wwe at the time, on the assumption they'd quit and join TNA

DJExile posted:oh yeah wasn't that where like everyone on screen had to be blurred out? Moreso. There were like 3 or 4 matches where the winners would face off in a multiman for a title shot. Hernandez won one of his qualifiers, and then was in the match. They cut the matches and blurred him out in some roster shots and had to fill time like crazy.

The ref was a one in a million thing of happening (It was a show in Mexico and only a few refs in Mexico who have a US tv contract.) And only was in one segment. Hernandez wanted out of LU (possibly be because his last angle involved angry neckbeards whipping him with belts because he said dragons weren't real), and got conditionally released. He couldn't work on TV until Ultima Lucha finished, got back into TNA via MVP, never told anyone about the condition, so they inserted him into the ME picture and was written into like a quarter of the show. At no point did TNA ever call LU to clear it woth them, and they had to scrap and rewrite a show they already had in the can. MVP got canned too.
