Oh man, I read the spoilers for the shows taped last night. Gets even better (dumber)! Apparently Bigfoot shows up in the crowd during an X Division match. Thanks TNA, I'm going to be laughing all day about that. Ouch... my cheeks hurt. I'm gonna be looking like Jack Nicholson's Joker for the next week. I was actually laughing about this sort of thing a while ago. Like when they had James Storm and his goons out in the woods every week with some idiots in a haunted cabin to promote the channel's other awful shows. Then midway through a match Josh would come away with something like, "going for a moonsault and he lands on his feet! feet, talking of feet, big feet, don't forget to catch this week's all new episode of Bigfoot Humpers, only on Destination America. Tuesday. 9/8 Central. Join Buck, Jerry and the gang this week as they close in on another guy in a suit." TNA is really bad right now. The bit with James Storm and Mowgli Shere Khan was painful to watch. Actually, this week, I think every single face who spoke went with the same old "I'm just like all these people here" talk. All 200 of them. TNA really is nothing more than a televised Carny show these days. I don't even care about avoiding spoilers these days. So Karen Jarrett is the mastermind, eh? I'm sure Karen v Dixie in a TNA ownership on a pole match will be a classic.

TNA just announced this year's Hall of Fame inductee
It's a fucking referee! Who gives a shit!

This one seems so stupid that I have to wonder if they are doing it on purpose. As far as I'm aware, they still have Roode, Storm, Abyss, Gail Kim, etc. I suppose none of them have a WWE career as long and successful as Hebner so that automatically qualifies him ahead of everyone else for the TNA Hall of Fame.
I've read that TNA's TV deal is due to expire in January. I can see the final image being Angle and Hebner stood in the ring with their arms in the air, Angle with the belt in his other hand, with Josh blabbering something about the best wrester and referee ever.
TNA is so hard to watch right now. So Jeff and his Goons got beat last week. Is that it now? They signed a contract at the top of the show and the match was changed completely ten minutes later. This big Indian guy absolutely sucks. Sucks! Why didn't EC3, of all people, not care in the slightest that Jeff might gain power? What happened to the BDC? Bram, who saved the day for TNA, probably won't be seen again. Did they put the belt on Tigre Uno just so they could take a jab at Donald Trump?
Just some thoughts bouncing about my head regarding TNA. I really just watch now to see how quickly they are spiralling down the wrestling well of failure.

This one seems so stupid that I have to wonder if they are doing it on purpose. Perhaps they could have some ninjas kidnap Earl before he makes it to the HOF ceremony, you mean? All of those names you listed are perfectly fine, I suppose the problem is that putting someone in the Hall of Fame kinda means you're over the hill. It's fine for Sting & Angle, they are very clearly at the tail end of their careers. On the other hand Bobby Roode is only a couple years older than me, therefore he is very young and has many years of being young and not old ahead of him.

Yeah, I suppose being tagged as a legend in your thirties wouldn't be that great for them. At this point I want the likes of Roode, Young, etc, to get a chance in NXT like Joe is getting right now, with the possibility of having a run on the WWE's main roster before it becomes too late for them. TNA has fallen so far at this point and I think some of their loyal servants deserve better. AJ Styles is a main eventer in New Japan right now too. There is plenty of oppertunities out there for them.

Eric Young would be a good addition to the Wyatt family.
I think Roode would have the most impact (sorry, can't think of a better word) on the roster - I can see him punching well above the Ziggler Line as a singles star, but the more likely route would be bringing him in with Storm as an NXT tag team.
I guess the Hardys could come back for a nostalgia tag run as well if the E thinks they are clean.
I'm sure they would induct Angle into the HOF.
I don't really see much Value-Over-What-They-Already-Have-In-NXT on the rest of the roster. I mean, why bring Lashley back when Big E is right there being more entertaining?
Edit: Duh, Austin Aries. Of course. In fact Rockstar Spud could fill a Santino role as well.

Is your wrestling company looking like it's going to die? Just put the belt on Matt Hardy and make Brodus Clay the #1 contender! Problem solved!

It's pretty sad that I didn't even realise Bound for Glory was happening last weekend. Not as sad as Matt Hardy winning your wrestling company's World Title. And still not as sad Matt Hardy relinquishing the title a few days later because EC3 filed an injunction against the company. Sometimes you think TNA can't possibly get any stupider, but hey, why the fuck not, might as well run out all those extra-stupid angles they had saved up for a rainy day before they die.

I don't think it's sad that you didn't know, TNA has a communication problem. They have never been great at letting people know that events are going to happen. That's why we see pictures of house shows with 18 people at it.
