Tna???

DannyAu-Yeung

Was watching it last week on Sky. Whats with the 6 sided ring on TNA???

4 sides just isnt enough anymore. Get with the times man. TNA realised that wrestling fans like cheap novelties like big cages and six sided rings. Im all for it. It looks cool and it ads and extra dimension to matches. It allows wrestlers to do moves that cant be done in a regular 4 sided WWE ring

It felt weird though watching guys wrestle in a 6 sided ring. Too used to watching wrestling in a 4 sided ring.

What do you mean on Sky?
TNA couldnt be on Sky Sports... could it?

I don't think so. I've only seen it on the wrestling channels.

With a six sided ring the X-divsion is unbelievable at times the stuff they can do.

The Fitz

Yeah especially with the talent they have there, its a good bit better than wwe now

Brow

Plus i think they arent half as strict on moves done. If Styles or anyone came over from TNA they'd be a shadow of the themselves that you see in TNA these days.

I dont get AJs move's. Whats the point in doing a moonsault only to land on your feet before hitting an inverted DDT? Would it not be more effective and less time consuming to just hit an inverted DDT? Its not very realistic. OK prowrestling by its nature is not very realistic if you throw a guy against the ropes he not going to spring back at you in a real fight, but AJs move is a bit ridiculus

Brow

It's impressive, adds a bit of flair and showmanship. I dunno, it looks good. A lot of moves are like that though.

Sky as in the wrestling Channel.

Stalfos

Right, i understand now

6 sided ring looks cool but i still prefer the 4 sided one

jesusjones

Its suits the X division guys more rather than the heavyweights I think

Brow

Yeah, i saw a tag match in it a while ago and they seemed confused at times at what to do regarding irish whips and stuff.

What's the point in doing a moonsault or a 450 splash or a frogsplash or a shooting star press? Why not just jump on the bloke? Why do any move why not just hop on him and punch his face in? It just adds that extra bit of showmanship and atleticism and it just looks impressive.

As for the six sided ring I've only seen one or two matches and maybe the ropes were too tight that time or maybe it's just the way it is with six sides but the few irish whips I've seen it looked like they were bouncing off a brick wall and just didn't look too good at all.

Sorry lads but TNA is pretty bad.

Don't get me wrong, I like to watch other feds apart from WWE and a bit of competition is great, but at the moment TNA poses no competition to WWE.

Plus I’m all for new, young stars showing their talents and potential.

I'm not over the moon with the HHH/JBL story, but compared to the crap production and promos I’ve seen on Impact, its Oscar material.

And really, ask yourself, if guys like Styles are so much better performers, why aren’t they performing for McMahon for more money?

As for the “big names” they have, Nash and Hall would turn up at the opening of a fridge if it was cash up front, Hardy is just plain lazy and couldn’t get out of bed for the WWE schedule, and I’m sorry but DDP vs. JJ is not my idea of a main event in 1995 , never mind 2005

jesusjones

Tna is bad in places they do need new main event guys pretty badly and Jarretts ego has run wild a long time ago and people can get fed up of that pretty easily.Why some guys arent in WWE!Simply because most of them are below average height Guys like Petey Williams,Chris Sabin,A.J,Chris Daniels,AMW,Micheal Shane,Monty Brown,Abyss Kid Kash and so on there is a talent roster there and in most of these cases they dont have either the Stamford Look or they dont have the charisma not because they are not talented.In A.Styles case he was offered a developmental deal but turned it down and now is getting more more in T.N.A and indies anyway.T.N.A if it gets it priorities right can be a major alternative to WWE but I agree on this not in its present state

Brow

McMahon would ruin their careers if he got his hands on a lot of them. Plus AJ turned down the deal because he just got his family settled and didnt like the look of the travel schedule.
