Have to admit, I'm really enjoying TNA these days - especially this war between the TNA Originals and The Main Event Mafia.

TNA just has this realism about it that I find quite refreshing. There are no clearly defined heels or faces, everyone has shades of grey. Take this feud for example, each side has valid viewpoints and we the fans are free to cheer either depending on who you agree with. (M.E.M :nanner:) Now that's cool.

I find myself FFW through large segments of WWE programs, Smackdown especially - Khali's kiss cam, Diva costume matches, Kung Funaki... :throwup: I wonder how long before I finally give up and stop tuning in altogether :dunno:

I sometimes do the same as far as the large segments but I always watch anything that has to do with the divas.In my opinion there will never be a hotter group of women wrestling then on Raw and Smackdown.From what I've seen the TNA women are hott but they still can't touch the WWE divas

I was a little surprised that Regal won the Inter-Continental title from Santino the other night on Raw even though it took place in the United Kingdom, Regal's home country. What is the time difference between there and the U.S.? I know it wasn't live this week, neither was ECW and I bet Smackdown won't be either.

Smackdown and ECW are never live (even though ECW says live). Every now and then they might do a live show but they are pretty much always taped on Tuesdays.

Well, I knew that. :D I've been watching these shows since the beginning. I even watched the original ECW and liked it much better.

I loved the original ECW, I went to a live show back in '97 when they came to the Ice Rink here in Stamford. Taz was facing Sabu and the fight ended up in the audience with me and my brother. Chris Candido and Shane Douglas were wrestling against New Jack and Kronus. In fact during the match Tammy Sytch came out and sat in the bleachers with Balls Mahoney and we started yelling "Sunny's cheatin'" at Chris Candido. Tommy Dreamer was facing Rob Van Dam in an ECW vs WWF match with Dreamer representing ECW and Van Dam representing WWF. Dreamer won. Blue Meanie even came out to Shawn Michaels "Sexy Boy". Ah! That was fun.

You live in Stamford, CT? How close are you to the WWE Headquarters?

I live off of exit 6 near the Stamford/Greenwich border and the WWE Headquarters is off of exit 9 on the Stamford/Darien border. I drive by it everyday when I go into Norwalk and I've met Triple H and Stephanie McMahon when I went to see a movie in Norwalk. I also applied for an internship with WWE Magazine but was told that their internship positions were filled by the time I applied. My sisters aunt used to work for them as well and she used to get us free magazines from them when I was younger. The best part was when DX sprayed the DX logo on the side of the building. It was up there for a while.:D

Hopefully they rebrand Santino as a good wrestler and not just a comedy character. Hopefully Regal will feud with Noble for intercontinental title.

Hey, I just found something, I think Christian Cage might be going back to the WWE!

Latest Update On Christian Cage Leaving TNA For WWE (Impact Spoiler Included)
Written by Richard Gray on Nov 11, 2008 - 10:49:27 AM

TNA taped an angle that will air on this Thursday's edition of Impact last night where Christian Cage was beaten down by Kurt Angle, Booker T, Kevin Nash, and Scott Steiner to close the show. This was done to give the company an opportunity to write Christian off of television should he opt to re-sign with WWE when his contract with TNA Wrestling expires next month.

TNA does not want to get caught in a situation like they did with Gail Kim where the news had broke that she was leaving the company before her final match aired. TNA is playing it safe and will write Christian back into television should he end up re-signing with them.

There is nothing new to what has already been reported other than Christian has told TNA officials that WWE is pursuing him and that he is seriously considering accepting their offer. Christian does not have any ill will against anyone in TNA Wrestling and is making the decision completely based on what is financially best for him and his family.

I hope Christian does end up back in WWE and I hope that WWE doesn't move him to mid-card status. I think he proved himself in TNA.

He proved himself during his 1st tenure with the WWE but they still let him go. If he goes back, they'll just fuck him over...again.

The article I read said that if he goes back to the WWE, he'd make 3 times as much as he did with TNA.

I think he may come back and reunite with Edge which would be really great. Now if they would just bring back Gangrel.
