TNA vs. WWE Monday, January 4th!!!

[Captain]

Brets contract to host was signed for January and February according to the local news about all this. So he's bound to pop up again. He wont..cant fight though, so the Orton thing was hooey. Mans had a stroke, and a back that may as well be made out of straw. Gettin' nutted at the end of the show probably taxed him....Still....I really wanted him to crush Heartbreak Kid. I HATE that goofball. Would have been nice to see him pop Vince too....maybe next week?

It took a lot for him to even do this I'm sure. Rumor had it that there was some financial issues in the Hart clan here (they had to sell their estate grounds a few years back, and eventually even sold the mansion (including the infamous dungeon). One of the brothers wants to release dvd's of the old Stampede Wrestling show, but Vince owns the rights when he bought out ol' Stu years back, so the family had to kiss some butt there.Last, but not least, as Vince mentioned, the Harts want Stu in the Hall of Fame. Dont know how that all works, but I'm betting Vince runs that too, so the only way to get him in there (where he deserves to be!) is to bow down to Vince and take one in the nuts for the family.

I think the Bela's a Smok'in !!!!
Man.... & There's 2 of them !!!
.. I just think they are so Damn Hot.


... Obviously the Vince Kicking Brett, is to work him around and in the Story Line , if he is infact sticking around for 5 Months of a Contract.

And Brett Looked Damn Good for 53 ..., We all could be so Lucky, to have our Hair, let alone look like we can Still Kick some Arse.

BTW.... Santino's Skit as Jericho Ruled.
I like that Guy ...

I just really found Myself Not Caring about anybody on TNA I didn't reconize ..., and It's hard for me to watch, when I don't Know someone ...

It's good to see Kurt Angle...., He's still Awesome.

And As a Fan of DX ... I don't care,.. You Guys Can ...........

SUCK IT !!!

Naw jk.., well Kinda, I just find them Entertaining, always Have.

After the cameras were off many of the guys backstage came out and welcomed Bret back in front of the crowd, no Michaels or HHH though. Afterwards Bret went around the ring shaking hands with many of the fans at ringside before going to the back.

Other than the occasional bit of TNA here and there, I haven't watched wrestling in a couple of years - but, because of this thread, I decided to watch both shows tonight. I flipped back and forth, like I did years ago during the RAW/Nitro years, and overall liked what I saw out of TNA better. The Styles/Angle match was terrific (save the stupid masked man run in angle) and it was fun to see Ric Flair show up. I could do without Hulk Hogan and his NWO buddies, though. But if they need Hogan there to get attention, then so be it.

The chemistry between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels is great, and I think that some of what they said, scripted or not, they actually meant. The Vince kicking Hart in the groin was predictable and stupid.

And I actually like the six-sided TNA ring. :P

[fallensaviour]

I'll say I agree with you guys about the TNA ring and the red cage was crap.The dude looked like he had a hard time trying to climb out the top and then fell down.Maybe it was part of the show but to me it looked like he was just struggling way to hard.

The DX match could have been better if they were paired with a better tag team Jeri-go bye,bye and big show just were not that enjoyable to watch together.
I'm not a DX fan at all but Michaels and H clearly flow good together as a tag team.

And yes wwe has better looking gals!!!

For all the hitman haters out there that crowd spoke volumes when michaels and Vince were in that ring all you could here was cheering for the hitman.
The hitman still has a huge fanbase and could still sell some shirts I bet.It was great to see him in the squared circle again.I'm sure the Bret vs Vince thing is far from over.

WWE does have the much hotter chicks though...not even close.

[Hector]

I found the DX Match real Entertaining...
The New WWE Figures..., Not so Much,.. I do Like the Barbarian HHH ...
It was Cool To See The Bad Guy,.. Scott Hall.
Jeff Hardy At TNA..., was Kinda a Shock to me ..
Unless it's a "Name" I know, I find TNA Very Boring...
& I thought the Hitman Looked Damn Good At 53.
All in all ... Better Programing at WWE ..., alot of Hype for Nothing imo on Both Counts.

I'm pretty much in agreement except for DX.

Bret Hart does look good at his age...well preserved.

Yep...Jeff Hardy was indeed a surprise showing at TNA.

And you are right about TNA...and all those unknowns...can't relate to them that well.

I still have not seen the entire TNA telecast...I'll give my overall verdict until then...but so far...I have Raw winning.

[Hector]

I just watched Raw on my DVR...and I'm watching TNA right now...also on DVR.

First off...they must've paid Bret Hart a ton of money to hug Shawn Michaels...lol. McMahon kicking Hart was pretty lame...come on.

DX...I can't stand DX...and that stupid dwarf...good grief.

FINALLY Orton beats Kingston fair and square...about friggin' time.

I'm a HUGE Bret Hart fan...but even with him...the show was a bit of a downer.

I hope it picks up next week...supposedly Mike Tyson will host...and I'm dying to see what happens between Hart and Orton.

Now to TNA...

What a horrible red cage...I couldn't even see who was wrestling...truly horrible...and that ring still sucks.

Nice to see Jeff Hardy on board...that was a surprise.

A lot of wrestlers I don't recognize on TNA...but it has a lot of veterans too...nice mixture.

There seems to be more wrestling and less yapping in TNA than WWE.

TNA arena and audience is much smaller than the huge WWE stadium and crowds though.

Ok...now I'm off to watch the second part with Hulk Hogan...I'll post back later.

So TNA had Hogan,Flair,123 kid,scott hall,kevin Nash,a hardyboy and eric bishof.None of whom wrestled big surprise and bret hugs shawn and gets bagged by vince.
Not really a big surprise there.But can see some good story line development for the future.Orton saying he wants a shot at Bret and Vince playing the big bad boss a rehash of the vince stone cold shtick.
The DX vs big show/jericho match was pretty crappy.Who's tops for tags now in the wwe I'd like to see DX do some decent matches with some established teams.

[The Toyroom]

Yawn!!

[MegoMark71]

I'm a bit sick to my stomach as i watched bret hug shawn

[fallensaviour]

Pvr ing raw and watching TNA I just watched the opening for bret and switched back to TNA.
Wow what a list of guys showing up at tna so far.

[timmy]

I'll have to TiVo Raw.
I'll be at the TNA show in Orlando.

[toys2cool]

I'll probably check it out
