Dumb poo poo TNA has done(the hits):
-somehow convinced Chris Rock to make an appearance. I couldn't tell if he was terrified or confused. Same for the crowd.
-Dixie getting mad because they couldn't get Vanilla Ice
-Dutch Mantell declaring there would be no booked finishes by submission
-drawing a dick on Samoa Joe's face
-hiring Taz
-hiring Vince Russo. 3 times.
-Billy Corgan.
-a reverse battle royal
-a women's reverse battle royal
-a reverse ladder match
-dixie vs email
-russo vs email


I'm still impressed the Ultimate X rigging hasn't fallen onto the audience or collapsed. Same for that terrordome cage thing.

So Jenna Morasca was "famous" for being on Survivor, did she do anything else of prominence to be on TNA or was that pretty much it? Same as Jonny Fairplay (who at least had some indy wrestling exposure).

I've never seen the Jenna vs. Sharmell match so I just watched it.

Jenna throws the absolute worst slaps I've ever seen. Her elbows are tight into her sides and she just kind of moves her hands back and forth.

Sharmell wears a blue feathered dress that she can barely move in, and it leaves feathers all over the place. She gets hit with the worst punch of all time by Kong at the end of the match which allows Jenna to straddle her and get the pin.

Some other girl I've never seen before gets knocked off the top rope and nearly kills herself by just missing slamming her head on the gate. Kong was supposed to catch her I guess.

As well as that disgusting skit with Eric Bischoff, Hulk Hogan, and I think Ric Flair all making fun of the "TNA Doctor" for suggesting that concussions were a bad thing and maybe some people should take some time off.

Don't forget that while this "serious" concussion story was going on, there was also a comedy one going on where Eric Young was dropped on his head and went from being a serious heel to a goofy brain damaged face.

Just watched it too and it was also quite terrible. At least those two could do some wrestling moves, but most of the match was them talking at each other or trying to make sure their boobs don't fall out of their tops.

Both are easy -***** or more, but Jenna vs. Sharmell was laughably embarrassing while Rebel vs. Shelly was just really bad.

I'd say the times they refused to pay for the medical expenses of anyone that wasn't a white man.

The time they insisted that Daffney be put through a barbwire covered plywood board by Abyss, saying they would give her a big push, she got injured going through it, they refused to pay for any medical expenses and didn't even get it on camera. Or the time they forced Daffney to do a strip tease. Or how they had Bubba Dudley's poorly trained rookie beat her in a squash where she ended up suffering a career ending injury and Bubba tried to get the blame pinned on Daffney.

Anything TNA did to Daffney, really.

Yeah, Daffney ended up having to sue them to get her medical costs covered, which I think she did get eventually.


Also when Chris Candido died, TNA sent his final paycheque with his name on it, so his girlfriend (Tammy Sytch aka Sunny) asked them to resend the cheque in her name so she could cash it. TNA refused, and sent a boneless ham as a sympathy gift.

Sytch already had her problems (I used to work with her) but TNA's treatment of Candido before, during, and after pushed that poor woman over the edge.

Earth-1145 is truly the best!
A world of singing, magic frogs,
high adventure, no shitposters
Death Crew Council has been gone for awhile. James Storm is back to being a beer drinkin' cowboy after somehow turning into a Bray Wyatt Cult Leader and a weird Mime Mask Gang Leader over the course of the past 36 months.
It's a shame DCC never won the tag titles, it would have been quite the culmination of his storied tag career:

1) Tag titles with Chris Harris
2) Tag titles again with Chris Harris like six months later
3) Won them the third time in a year
4. A fourth AMW title win!
5) Somehow Triple X and AMW switched tags partners, a fourth tag title reign with Chris Daniels
6) AMW, five time champions!
7) Sorry, six times!
8) Beer Money wins the titles!
9) Beer Money wins them again!
10) Whoops, Beer Money wins it for a third time!
11) Beer Money wins the belts for Fourtune!
12) James Storm teams up with Gunner I guess and wins the titles!
13) Now James Storm is Bray Wyatt and he and Abyss win the tag titles for THE REVOLUTION
14) Sadly, the Death Crew Council never won the titles :(

Maybe when he recovers from his Slammiversary injuries he can be granted ceremonial tag titles 13-17 so that they can claim he is better than Cena OR Flair
