Bound For Glory 2014 Live Thread

Figured I should get this up for all of you heading to the Korakuen Hall to watch the biggest TNA event of the year live (bell time is 5:30am EST).

The card as it stands now:
  • The Great Muta and Tajiri vs James Storm and The Great Sanada
  • Samoa Joe vs Low Ki vs Kaz Hayashi
  • Team 3D vs Abyss and Tommy Dreamer
  • Havok vs Velvet Sky
  • MVP (how does this convicted felon get into Japan!?) vs Kazmo Sakamoto
  • Ethan Carter III vs Ryota Hama
  • Manik vs Minoru Tanaka
  • Andy Wu and El Hijo del Pantera vs Jiro Kuroshio and Yusuku Kodama
Clearly a show set to blow Wrestlemania XXX out of the water in every way.

If you're still undecided, walk-up tickets are still available for around $23.

Comments

  1. Ok, knowing somewhat how you are, I'm sensing sarcasm but, man, I was there live for Mania 30 and it was just so great. I guess thanks for reminding me of the memories.

    who wastes a plane ticket on Velvet Sky, arguably the worst wrestler on the roster? Why isn't the ultra-talented Asian babyface female working Japan?

    ReplyDelete
  3. Because Gail Kim isn't sleeping with Bully Ray would be my guess.

    ReplyDelete
  4. So this is the biggest PPV of the year but the previous TV show was main-evented by Hardyz Vs Dudleyz Vs Wolves in a TLC match for the tag titles. Does anybody else see the problem with expecting people to pay $40 for this show?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Does this draw even 5000 PPV buys? This isn't even a friends and family show.

    ReplyDelete

    I bet the HITC live thread gets more comments than this PPV gets buys.

    This is probably a sold show, which means it will actually make the company money unlike their U.S. PPVs.

    ReplyDelete
  8. The negativity towards TNA on here is weird sometimes.

    ReplyDelete
  9. According to 2ch, the place is packed. Sounds like this should come across well on TV.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Kourakuen Hall is on the fifth floor of a multipurpose building. They are apparently making fans take the elevator, so it's taking a ridiculously long time getting everyone in.

    ReplyDelete
  11. To be fair it is pretty shite

    ReplyDelete
  12. The locals appear to be digging the show.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Samoa Joe retains his X-Division title.

    Here's a shot of the crowd, in case you've never experience Kouraken Hall for the shitty venue that it is:

  14. Because how can you sleep while this is going on?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Where is everyone at? This is like the TNA of live threads.

  16. The Ghost Of Meekin's MoobsOctober 12, 2014 at 5:34 AM

    Even SSW would be embarrassed to film there

    ReplyDelete
  17. It is the TNA of live threads. he biggest show of their year, can't you tell?

    ReplyDelete
  18. TNA fanboys tell me, is there a single match on this biggest show of the year that wold be considered big enough to main event Impact?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Pretty negative place in general. (I'm guilty of it too, not pointing fingers)

    ReplyDelete
  20. The Muta tag should be good. Ignore the fact that Muta appeared once on Impact about three months ago and that's the end of the match's build.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm attended indy shows without a single named wrestler on the card with a more impressive crowd.

    ReplyDelete
  22. It's big enough to be a huge deal in Tokyo, which is what it needs to be right now.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Better than this?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Muta's tag would be, if you don't mind it barely being mentioned for three months that is.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Muta and Tajrir vs Sanada and Storm isn't the main event?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Sorry, you are correct.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I question WWF1987's fandom since he isn't here. Were all bigger TNA fans than he is.

    ReplyDelete
  28. If he were there, he'd be too intently focused on the show to post about it in real time.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I've thought the same thing and just assumed he still had friends over there — probably including Vince — and he didn't want to put his hands on that.

    ReplyDelete
  30. "The semi and main were bullshit, but at least the crowd was into it."

    Yep, that's our TNA!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Yes.

    He knew he didn't want to burn that bridge.

    ReplyDelete
  32. The Dudleys apparently gave a pretty emotional speech.

    ReplyDelete
  33. When I clicked on this page I assumed all the comments world be from him.

    ReplyDelete
  34. It looks like a hotel conference room.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Have to say I'm kinda blown away people are active right now. I'm only up cause my son had an early practice. BoD must be more international than I thought.

    ReplyDelete
  36. About 1800 people just did.

    ReplyDelete
  37. How can you sleep when the Dudleys are making the most famous speech since Terry Funk yelled "FOREVER!" 183 times?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Because otherwise the WWF could put it on someone else and say they won it in Rio.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Hah. Fair enough. Did you watch online? PPV? Or are you over there?

    ReplyDelete
  40. NOAH ran a show in Yokohama at the same time. It will be interesting to see which one got a higher attendance.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Just following along on 2ch and any Twitter feeds that I can find.

    ReplyDelete
  42. zanadude can you post the results please??

    ReplyDelete
  43. I don't know them myself! Stupid Japanese don't post results, they just make comments like:

    "The main event was going so badly I thought 'Oh, 3D will probably run in here!', so I LOLed when it happened. I wonder if that was an ad-lib?"

    ReplyDelete
  44. Seems like the TNA talent went out of the way to appeal to the Japanese crowd. Wonder how their enthusiasm will play out with the US PPV audience.

    ReplyDelete
  45. My girlfriend and best friend's wife are going to the farmer's market, so my best friend and I are gonna make an enormous breakfast, drink beer and play as much video games as his hopefully sleeping baby will allow us.

    Don't know what anyone else's excuse is.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Results:

    Minoru Tanaka defeated Manik

    Ethan Carter III defeated Ryota Hama

    MVP defeated Kazma Sakamoto

    Samoa Joe defended the the X-Division Championship against Low Ki and Kaz Hayashi.

    Team 3D defeated Abyss and Tommy Dreamer

    HAVOK defended TNA Knockouts Championship against Velvet Sky

    Great Muta & Tajiri defeated James Storm & The Great Sanada.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Well, this live thread was a disaster. Looks like I won't be running with any other US PPVs in Japan any time soon.

    ReplyDelete
  48. How is Joe these days?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Man, catching up on Austin's podcast. Listening to his talk with JR. JR's rant on a needed for real heels, and having enforced rules the heel can break to make a clear line between the bad guy and the good guy is so true.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Over with the Japanese. Can't say for sure any more than that.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Man, I was a big fan of his. Just haven't been into TNA for a couple years. I've read around these parts that he's slowed a bit.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Didn't Austinnow/McMahon destroy that paradigm?

    The guy that breaks the rules is the guy that gets cheered, because the bad guys make the rules now.

    ReplyDelete
  53. He means in a match. Heels would cheat all the time against Austin.

    ReplyDelete
  54. To add to cultststus's point, McMahon kept making rules to stack the deck against Austin.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Yeah but I'm thinking back then heels would choke Austin to a 4 count, or a McMahon would low bridge Austin coming towards the ropes causing him to fall out of the ring and then get removed from ringside.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Good! It's good to see people turned out for this. As popular as it is to hate on TNA, the wrestlers deserve to perform in front of a big crowd once in a while.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Catching up on WTF, Episode 500, Marin calling brother.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Just remember it's TNA's fault, not yours.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Main eventing Impact... well, considering TNA, I could see 3D/Dreamer + Abyss or Muta + Tajiri/Storm + Sanada in that spot. With the X-Div Triple Threat a dark horse.


    But yeah, this card was weak. Nowhere near as bad as it was looking 4-6 weeks ago, but still barely better than an Impact.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Because Gail isn't with the company right now? (Hence why she lost the KO title recently.)

    ReplyDelete
  61. Enforcing rules is all JR goes on about on his podcast. I've stopped listening to it now

    ReplyDelete
  62. Just because they've helped given you a "career" doesn't mean they're worthy of much praise...


    :)

    ReplyDelete
  63. Easy. I didn't fall asleep until 2 AM local, and had to be at work for 9. (It's almost 9:20 now)

    ReplyDelete
  64. Re-watching some of the Benoit newscasts after his death. It's pretty much all STEROIDS STEROIDS STEROIDS with no mention of brain injuries.

    ReplyDelete
  65. By the way, what's the thinking on the Richards/Ehrhoff deal you offered? Just curious, before I make my final decision.


    (Also, ESPN needs to make something more obvious, like a nice-sized "YOU HAVE A TRADE OFFER!" somewhere on the page. I only noticed it by accident yesterday afternoon.)

    ReplyDelete
  66. Sir William was Bill Dundee, right? Wonder why they replaced him with Jeeves around this time?

    ReplyDelete
  67. It is towards all wrestling on here. You aren't really allowed to like wrestling here on this mostly wrestling site.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Yep. A mere seven years later, that narrative would be totally different and much more accurate today.

    ReplyDelete
  69. You aren't allowed to like "modern" wrestling. Just a bit of a difference there... just a little.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Slight threadjack: Looks like starting Wednesday, they're going back to uploading Raws from 1995...picking up with 8/14 & 8/21/95.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I imagine he stays locked in a padded room just saying, "MELTZER WRONG AGAIN! HE HAS NO SOURCES! ONE MILLION VIEWERS A WEEK! TNA IS FIIIIIIIIIINE!"

    Then they let him out of the straight jacket to post here for a few hours a day. I believe at least 70% of the reason he keeps coming back is because he uses his tears from the TNA bashing to jerk off with. The guy is a loon and completely uncredible.

    ReplyDelete
  72. They only had to go around to another country as a novelty act to achieve it. TNA should just stay in Japan. They are WAY more popular than WWE there.

    ReplyDelete
  73. How huge is it?

    ReplyDelete
  74. And time limits...I still listen as long as he has a guest I think will be interesting. I just have to FF to about the 21 minute mark.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Damn, I don't even think that poorly of John Edwards. Usually.

    ReplyDelete
  76. This is why I'd say its a bad idea to take Wrestlemania overseas.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Um...huge enough to fill Korakuen Hall?

    Wrestle-1 wasn't doing that on its own.

    ReplyDelete
  78. TJ:

    Kevin Durant out 6-8 weeks with a foot fracture

    ReplyDelete
  79. Bobby, email me at BBayless781@gmail.com for an invite to the fantasy basketball league.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Not sure that TNA deserves any praise for it. This show is almost entirely produced by Wrestle-1. All TNA is doing is slapping on a voiceover track today.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Your kicking my ass now this week

    ReplyDelete
  82. The best defense is a good offense.

    ReplyDelete
  83. With me sitting a dude who got a hat trick last night too.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Was it a bad idea taking Summerslam overseas?

    ReplyDelete
  85. Summerslam's not wrestlemania.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Uh...no. WWE pulls in many times more fans for its shows, without any help from local feds.

    ReplyDelete
  87. Everything that followed Hackenschmidt/Gotch is bullshit.

    ReplyDelete
  88. What does this have to do with an overseas WrestleMania?

    ReplyDelete
  89. Was it a bad idea taking Summerslam overseas?

    ReplyDelete
  90. In 1992 when business was good? No.

    In 2014 when you basically only make significant money with Wrestlemania? Yes.

    ReplyDelete
  91. What's the difference between filling Met Life Stadium and filling Wembley Stadium?

    ReplyDelete
  92. In fairness, WWE could probably fill it with an NXT event, MINUS KENTA/Itami, with a main event of Zack Ryder vs Heath Slater in a 60-minute Iron Man match.

    ReplyDelete
  93. I think WWF felt that airing any PPV on a tape delay was a bad idea, something they never did again. But they did make a ton of money to offset the (for the time) disappointing buyrate.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Come on, Rogers/O'Connor was nothing but legitimate.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I suupose the talent was pleased to be wrestling in a four sided ring again.

    ReplyDelete
  96. You'd have to put Wrestlemania on five hours earlier in the day, for one. You're not gonna fill Wembley between midnight and 4am.

    ReplyDelete
  97. The energy of this crowd says otherwise. The real wrestling fan in Japan has been clamoring for this. What an event! Such buzz. So nice.

    ReplyDelete
  98. They don't make all their money in ticket sales. They potentially hurt their ppv numbers by people who are unwilling to stay up to the wee hours of the morning on a Sunday night to watch.

    I dunno, just saying. I have to work, if even the pre-show only started at 10 at night, then that counts me out.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Tyson/Douglas nearly filled the Tokyo Dome at 10am on a Sunday, for Saturday nightviewing on HBO.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Okely dokely. I'll repeat that no sporting event is going to take place between midnight and 4am at Wembley stadium, for a billion reasons involving security, transport, and madness.

    ReplyDelete
  101. It doesn't matter when it airs on the network.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Hm. Yeah, I guess that's true.

    ReplyDelete
  103. Could air live from Japan.

    ReplyDelete
  104. The angle where Eaton joined with Regal was good. He offers to join Regal and gets rebuffed. So they have a match in which Eaton was pretty over as a babyface. Regal quits in the middle, Eaton has earned his respect, voila, tag team. Blue Bloods was an iffy gimmick but I enjoy both Regal and Beautiful Bobby.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Whoa, you never I'd never actually watched this before, I had no idea how blatant it was. I pictured her coming into the arena loading dock and just wordlessly dumping the belt in the trash. Didn't know they actually named the competition and acknowledged that she was Alundra Blayze. This is why Nitro was revolutionary.

    ReplyDelete
  106. So scratch Wembley Stadium then. The world is a big place with many time zones.

    ReplyDelete
  107. I think WWE's *one* successful thing right now should probably stay in the good ol' US of A. But yeah, give us all the other PPVs over here in the UK. I'm all for that.

    ReplyDelete
  108. One of those new age hippie wrestling fans, huh?

    That bullshit was responsible for the creation of the WWWF!

    ReplyDelete
  109. Maybe put WrestleMania on the back of a big truck and drive it around several places in one night.

    ReplyDelete
  110. Not nearly as pleased as the crowd was to see them all perform. Unbelievable. Every report I am hearing says this show was amazing live. This could be a real turning point for TNA as a whole. The future looks bright... Except the TV deal, however, I could see a massive success such as this really opening the eyes of some hard headed tv execs out there. I'm sure the crack production team is putting together a nice international video package to show just how popular and successful TNA is abroad and how that energy can be not only maintained, but heightened state side. A great day to be a wrestling fan for sure.

    ReplyDelete
  111. I'm sure Nancy Grace would still fuck it up.

    ReplyDelete
  112. WCW's tour of Australia in November 2000. Hot crowds every night, everyone seemed to be a superstar. Unfortunately they booked return tickets and had to come home to an unforgiving and hostile United States of America.

    ReplyDelete
  113. Sammartino's nothing more than an Eye-Talian bag of hair. Didn't we beat them up 20 years ago, why should we CHEER for one of them? At least Buddy's a good ole' American. Just like apple pie and baseball.

    ReplyDelete
  114. Hang on, let me get my psychic hat...

    ReplyDelete
  115. Bully just put a cryptic tweet. Maybe a return to the WWE?

    ReplyDelete
  116. Yeah, tbf I will listen if he has someone that hasn't been on other podcasts I listen to but that is starting to get rare.

    I skip Jericho's monologue most times too. Austin's can be interesting though.

    ReplyDelete
  117. I totally agree with JR about this. Why should we boo any of the WWE heels? Because the WWE tell us to? Most of the heels don't do anything dastardly. They tell us that someone like Bo Dallas is a heel but if he never does anything heelish besides spouting some cornball inspirational quotes then why should the fans boo him. Then they wonder why the fans cheer him ironically. Maybe if they do some simple rulebreaking then maybe the crowds would actually boo the heels rather than repeat their catchphrases.



    Bo-lieve that!

    ReplyDelete
  118. Bernier has been awful this week and I have gotten nothing from my top guys. Zidlicky is my top scorer

    ReplyDelete
  119. Nah, probably jsut still fired up about being inducted into the prestigious TNA HOF. I'm pretty sure WWF1987 has already confirmed he will be resigning with TNA long term and he has even more sources within TNA than Meltzer.

    ReplyDelete
  120. The raw energy TNA would receive from an Australian tour is something they need to seriously consider. From what I hear they are even more popular than WWE in Australia and they need to do a tour for that rabid fan base. Spud would have that crowd eating out of the palm of his hand.

    ReplyDelete
  121. The Love-Matic Grampa!October 12, 2014 at 10:14 AM

    Hackenschmidt?!? That oiled-up Prussian strongman? Bah! Flimshaw!

    Besides, everyone knows Farmer Burns was the last REAL wrestler!

    ReplyDelete
  122. I think it's interesting that Kim Jung Un is apparently missing at the same time that Dixie Carter takes herself off TNA television. I would expect negotiations for TNA in North Korea are at a very, very advanced stage.

    ReplyDelete
  123. You're sounding even more delusional then 1987.

    The crowd could have been hotter then Hogan vs Rock, it doesn't suggest a bright future for TNA and it's not a barometer for saying TNA is bigger then WWE in Japan.

    ReplyDelete
  124. He's either bi-polar, or sarcastic in the positivity.


    Maybe he's trying to bring WWF1987 into the thread, by any means necessary.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Bo Dallas is a heel in the vain of a 2000 Kurt Angle. He's a goody two-shoes whose meant to get under your skin. In that role, he's very effective. He actually shouldn't be breaking the rules, because that wouldn't be his character. If anything, the faces should be breaking the rules to get at him to get cheers (AKA Stone Cold, Eddie Guerrero).



    Bo Dallas would be a lot more effective if they gave him a better story line than insulting people who lost to Rusev though. He might as well change his name to Rusev's Sloppy Seconds right now.

    ReplyDelete
  126. Another blockbuster move by Dixie. It's good to have an owner in North America who actually CARES ABOUT WRESTLING!!! The pendulum is swinging.

    ReplyDelete
  127. After all WCW did on Nitro in 1995 (the constant bashing, the "this is where the big boys play, those guys suck" comments, they tape their shows and here's who wins stuff, trashing the women's title), you can't blame WWF for taking shots back at them with the Billionaire Ted sketches... until they got too low-brow and they never actually acknowledged Eric Bischoff's existence, the man responsible.

    ReplyDelete
  128. Somebody put up the Observer live shows from around the time WCW went out of business. Pretty interesting listen.

    ReplyDelete
  129. He wants to job to the Miz for the rest of his career?

    ReplyDelete
  130. He just up voted a comment I made to make fun of him so sarcasm seems likely.

    ReplyDelete
  131. Complete trainwreck.

    ReplyDelete
  132. Dustin Harris is upset that the mainstream media did focus on anyone else who might have committed the murders.

    ReplyDelete
  133. Yeah, its almost like I'm just saying crazy over the top things to mock TNA fans or something. Weird.

    ReplyDelete
  134. Better storylines would definitely help. The NXT version of Bo Dallas was a hypocrite. He preaches all these virtuous things then he turns around and cheat behind everyone's back while denying that he would ever do such things. That's the difference between a heel and a snark favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  135. The Love-Matic Grampa!October 12, 2014 at 10:47 AM

    Well, I for one refuse to believe that people would actually resort to using sarcasm on the internet. Inconceivable!

    ReplyDelete
  136. This Countdown segment on Jimmy Johnson and the Herschel Walker trade makes me even more pissed off at Jerry Jones for being completely unable to swallow his pride and keep Johnson around. No telling how many more Super Bowls we could have had.

    ReplyDelete
  137. See, I just hate the Cowboys. (And the Stars, but who cares?) If they had kept Jimmy, and not degenerated into the sometimes entertaining mess they are now, I'd hate Dallas more than New York by now.

    ReplyDelete
  138. I just wish it made sense. What does it mean for Swagger to Bo-lieve? Does Dallas have a program for Swagger or whomever to follow? He just says "You need to bo-lieve". I can see why that would be annoying, but what the christ does he MEAN? Please flesh these characters out a bit, WWE.

    ReplyDelete
  139. Business is much better now than it was in 1992.

    ReplyDelete
  140. The Browns are giving points? Uh oh.

    ReplyDelete
  141. Probably NJPW with Devon

    ReplyDelete
  142. Stafford or Rothlisberger?

    ReplyDelete
  143. Stafford doesn't have Megatron

    ReplyDelete
  144. Have they ever done it again?

    ReplyDelete
  145. That's what I was thinking. Think I'll go big Ben.

    ReplyDelete
  146. Jesus, the nerds surrounding Akbar Gbaja-Biamila on RedZone makes me cringe.

    ReplyDelete
  147. I've got the farm on the Patriots. Go team

    ReplyDelete
  148. Lots of action but it seems like I'm riding with Bayless for the most part this week. Which means this train is headed straight off the rails.


    I have SD -7, NE -1, GB -2.5, Jaguars +6, Cardinals -2.5, Denver -10, Carolina +7

    ReplyDelete
  149. Defending TNA is the WORST offense

    ReplyDelete
  150. I'm betting the next big overseas show we'd see would in China. That's Cena & Vince's pet project.

    ReplyDelete
  151. He would do really well there.

    ReplyDelete
  152. Fuck the Steelers!

    ReplyDelete
  153. Boy, Parks and Rec just takes a fucking dive right from the start of Season 6, they can just be cancelled now I suppose.

    ReplyDelete
  154. I honestly forgot that show was still on

    ReplyDelete
  155. Seasons 2-4 are some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen on TV, but I suppose that's a really hard standard to keep up for long.

    ReplyDelete
  156. Stranger in the AlpsOctober 12, 2014 at 11:32 AM

    I had to find out the hard way that my new ISP has stuck a cap on my monthly usage. 250 GB a month. I don't even know if that's a lot. I've gone over by 12 GB and the billing cycle isn't even over yet.


    I guess that is a lot.

    ReplyDelete
  157. Danny Aiken is getting cut

    ReplyDelete
  158. What would be kind of neat (if incredibly ambitious) is to turn one Wrestlemania into a three day event in three locations. You could have shows on Friday and Saturday at locations around the world air at various times on the network, then do the traditional Sunday night in the USA. Of course, it would require splitting the roster for the three shows, but the impetus to bring back part timers for a show would at least make sense. If you had two or three big matches from each venue, used a combination of NXT or international talent on the undercard for the shows abroad then used your mid card for the American show? It'd be hard to pull off, but it would rock as a wrestling fan.

    ReplyDelete
  159. Start drive at opponents 15, fail to score.

    DOLPHINS FOOTBALL!

    ReplyDelete
  160. I wish these damn refs would figure out basic booking: use their biased call-making ability to hand the Browns some games during the season so when they job them out to their beloved Steelers it looks more impressive.

    ReplyDelete
  161. I was 2-8 the first two weeks

    9-5-1 the past three weeks

    ReplyDelete
  162. With the network, an oversea's ppv makes more sense. For a 'medium ppv' ( Say, summer slam or royal rumble) they could probably do really well at a big indoor arena.

    ReplyDelete
  163. As stupid and needlessly hateful as I thought the later Ted sketches were, I thought the refusal to acknowledge Bischoff was a great subtle (!) little way to tweak him.

    ReplyDelete
  164. The indoctrination of Eaton into the blueblood lifestyle is probably the funniest series of skits WCW did that were actually meant to be funny. Regal offering Eaton his choice of wine and Bobby asking for a bottle of Boone's Farm = high comedy.

    ReplyDelete
  165. I bet Eric REALLY wanted him to though. He probably got a lot of shit from Bischoff for not joining in.

    ReplyDelete
  166. Something bad happened to the Steelers and they didn't get a bailout call YES! YES! YES!

    ReplyDelete
  167. Dundee was gone at the very end of '94 or very beginning of '95, I think because of budget cuts (he was pulling in a road agent *and* talent salary at the same time).

    ReplyDelete
  168. Heenan said that it would just make him look bad, since he spent 9 years there.

    ReplyDelete
  169. And by that I mean shitting on something before it happens. By all means, shit on it afterwards, but to shit on it pre-emptively just makes me think people WANT to hate TNA rather than enjoy the bits that are actually good and hate the rest.

  170. The show will be airing its final season

  171. Does anyone else think that Eddie, in his later sleazeball character, would have made a good Horseman? Maybe in the Tully role?

  173. Weird that Team 3D teased going after a new set of tag titles at BFG (most likely the IWGP titles since they pulled out the Bullet Club shirts). Weird that TNA would let them do that. And weird because AJ Styles said (on Jim Ross's podcast) that NJPW really hates TNA right now.

  174. Pretty much the same pattern with me. 1st week I got murdered in pick em and in bets. 2nd week, killed in pickem, broke even on bets. Since then things have mostly stabilized and I had a pretty big week 4 to cancel out the early season failings but I'm still wary.

  175. How is Tampa Bay this bad? Does Jon Gruden watch these games with his pants down?

  177. Especially when discussing THIS BUSINESS! This isn't fun and games. It's a way of life.

  178. Not sure how well his calves would translate to a non-american audience.

  179. So glad I sat Steve Smith this week since apparently he isn't going to catch one of the 500 tds Flacco plans on throwing today.

  185. Whoops. Won't really miss the points though, my team is fucking loaded.

  186. Are you starting Flacco?

  187. No, I have Luck, Murray, and Bell. I pretty much win every week just by default.

  189. Tampa Bay makes me feel a sliver better about the Raiders.

  190. When your entire NFL fandom is being kicked in the teeth by officiating, you notice these things.
