Check out this dope Terry Gordy promo

 

[somedevil]

I wonder if any big events in Florida are happining soon

Holy Crap, did he ever look that good in his TNA run?

I wonder when he is showing up because he has a date in early July but this pic shows he is getting ready for that NXT run.

Plus here is the new Samoa Joe rumor:

Bill Behrans on Sean Radican's radio show seemed to indicate that Samoa Joe would join NXT in a similar capacity to Rhyno but on a swank, more esteemed basis and he would be portrayed as a "Legend" AND Joe could also still work indies.

Interesting. Bill is his agent taking his booking for him.

 

[Aiii]

Spoiler

Bryan alaverz hinted at some thing like that happening

Seeing Joe now kind of proves what we already knew that TNA doesn't really have any kind of gym or performance center for their athletes. Any conditioning they do seems to be on their own time.

[Seraphis Cain]

It's a shame Joe is (apparently) finally getting his WWE run only after Punk and Bryan are gone (I know Bryan is uncertain, but still). Not saying there's nobody on the roster he can have a great match with, far from it, but man, what could have been.

 

[Kaladin]

Did Joe vs Steen ever happen with the two of them at their peak on a grand stage?

That's a match I would want to see.

That's bullsh*t, Sandman. Where do you think they train their performers for in-ring competition, a parking lot?

The only singles match they had was in 2005 at PWG for the the title. Joe was at his peak not sure if Steen was at that time.


Plus what happened to Joe at TNA was cause of injuries and horrible booking. Would you want to continue training your ass off when they are putting tattoos on your face, getting kidnapped by ninjas, and former WWE guys getting better booking then you?

Happened fairly regularly on the independent scene in 2004.

Ah.....so Joe never really fought Steen at his peak then.

Looking forward to this one, as you know Joe can still go and with the way he looks now, he can probably go like he did ten years ago.

What do you consider Steen's peak? Because Steen was in his best shape in the mid 2000s. He just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger. The only thing that has changed are his promos.

He was never really as good IMO in the Mr. Wrestling days or in the Steen / Generico days till he started his big ROH / PWG run. He might have got bigger, but I thought his ring ability got better.

 

[miserable]

i wanna see Joe hit the muscle buster on Steen

fat on fat violence!

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Heel bodied TheWesker so hard, Samoa Joe thought he was transported back in time to a day where he was on a diet.

 

[Data West]

does fat Steen even do the moonsault anymore? That was always his best looking move. That and the neckbreaker

DA has a clause in the contract that says if they don't like what they see they can drop the show in Sept. We might finally be really reaching the definite end for real this time honestly, friends

What was the era in which TNA was good again? Because every single goddamn time I was told it was good and I gave it a chance it was this uneven piece of crap that was tonally all over the map, like an obsessive WWE stalker who wanted to kill everything that made the WWE what it was, while dressing exactly like them and acting exactly like them every other day.

Plus every PPV I tuned in for always ended with outside interference. It was always bullshit.

I honestly think people were so jaded after losing a couple of good WWE alternatives that they blinded themselves to the fact that TNA was basically everything wrong with WCW AND everything wrong with WWE rolled into one. Yeah. It had great talent on the roster, it always had that. But sure, lets job out everyone to Jeff Jarrett. Or lets job the entire X Division to Kevin Nash, because that worked so well in WCW. Or lets bring back Hogan and let him bury TNA and it's owner just so he can put himself over.

Oh, and lets keep using Russo even though he sucks and everyone knows he sucks, and even though our network have very clearly told us not to keep using him. Lets just keep using him and hope they never find out.

The only good thing about TNA is that it was so garbage that I decided to give this indie wrestling promotion that regularly put on shows in Boston a chance, and discovered ROH right in the middle of an obscene amount of talent on the roster. And unlike TNA, they actually got to wrestle complete matches which put the exciting new talent over.

Wow!

Seriously though, was there ever a time that TNA wasn't a joke? Like a period where they kept their shit together for say, six months, and had a good run of shows that weren't all run ins and wildly inconsistent tonal shifts and their commentators constantly going on about how all this shit was so much better than the 'other guys'?

Even during the "good" periods, TNA was never good from top to bottom.

Even during Samoa Joe's run as the X Division champion when he had the matches against Daniels and Styles, you still had Team Canada vs. 4Live Kru. And that Joe run lasted about months before Joe transitioned to Sabu, around the same time when Bullet Bob Armstrong is facing fucking Konnan in an arm wrestling match on PPV. A few months later, you had the America's Most Wanted vs. Styles/Daniels series, which was good, except that's when Kevin Nash burying the X Division starts. And Joe gets stuck in the midcard during this time when he should have been pushed to the main event, except Christian Cage is occupying that space.

There are moments you can point to, like Angle vs. Wolfe or Angle vs. Joe, but it was never actually good, as a whole.
