^ I wouldn't know. I haven't watched since Roode became champ...and the sad part of that is Roode was my favorite wrestler in TNA until they didn't have him win the World Title from Angle/turned him heel. After that, I stopped caring. :/

I has it's moments though. I'm not going to say TNA is the greatest, but it can be passable sometimes.

It makes me miss Aries in RoH and wish they'd picked up Shima Xion after his trial but otherwise the booking is impossible to follow and most of the talent is wasted. Anyone know what's happened to Shelly?

I'm not, TNA just doesn't deserve it's own thread because it's 98% awful.

Also just curious, so don't get all defensive and such... but why do you use hashtags outside of Twitter?

Pretty bad by the sound of things. From PWInsider:
Spoiler: show
Hardy scored a near fall with a two count. Roode, realizing he was done for, smiled and kicked the referee in the groin. Hardy nailed the Twist of Fate but the referee called for the bell.

Your winner by DQ, Jeff Hardy!

The crowd immediately began chanting “We Want Sting” but he didn’t come out. Hardy laid out Roode and nailed the Swanton. He grabbed the belt and threw it down on Roode.

Horrible finish that came off like TNA couldn’t come up with anything else. It wasn’t just a kick to the groin of the referee but their paying audience as well. Absolutely the worst way they could have closed the PPV in my opinion. The work was absolutely fine in the ring but when you show Sting, who’s supposed to be in charge, putting over that Hardy has this chance and earned it and then he doesn’t come out when the challenger gets completely screwed over, well, it makes him look like a moron. The fans shouldn’t have to wait until Thursday for conflict resolution when they are paying $30 to see a decisive finish.

Not the first impression anyone would have wanted going into the New Year, especially after the strong turn TNA TV has taken. The booking of the last two matches felt like missed opportunities, not in that the babyfaces should have went over, but that the finishes were so flat, they did no one – not the wrestlers, the fans or the company ANY good at all.

Not the first time TNA have used PPVs to setup angles on their TV show. Why anyone pays money their ppvs is completely beyond me.

To be honest, I'm not even sure they're worth that effort.

there are roughly 8,000 people who buy TNA paperviews.

there are 8,000 people who have way too much money to waste and should donated it to me.

Are you going?

I've heard their house shows are usually more entertaining than their televised show.
