American Alpha seem pretty flat SD, people don't seem to care about them nearly as much as they did on NXT, they just kind of came in without context. Them reluctantly coming together and Jason hating their catchphrase in their funny backstage segments is part of the reason they got over.
They're never going to sell those NES style New Day shirts, are they?
You can get them from FYE. They have some kind of merch deal with them.

They need The Revival to feud with.

It doesn't help AA have had fuck-all mic time and have mostly been doing in-ring work since they got brought up. They need to have them talk more.

TNA is in a world of fuck right now. If WWE still happens to go after the video archive, at least go after Eli Drake. The dude is gold.
Unless there are talent that the WWE wants to sign or trademarks they can just wait til TNA gets taken over by the state or goes bankrupt and pick up the tape library.
I just don't understand what Dixie is thinking it planning. Hell even why people are working with her.
Only smart move I've seen her make is force JJ to sell his share.

King Ross is right in pointing out that they need to stop advertising and congratulating each other's shows/PPVs.

every tag team needs The Revival. They gave DIY and Enzo & Cass their most interesting feuds.

I was wondering why I was unable to give a specific answer to that question earlier when you first posted it and I just realized why
Because there is no answer. Because she has never thought about it
It goes beyond what I said earlier about how she never believed shed get caught. None of this was ever realistically supposed to go this far. TNA is nothing more than a vanity project Dixie always wanted and was lucky enough to have a family rich enough to enable it. Everything else was secondary. Talent, contracts, loans, TV deals.
Nobody else could get all of the resources she had to work with and simply not give a fuck about any of it. And that's what makes her stand out most from all the other wrestling failures. Abrams, Heyman, Bischoff, etc forever all wanted to succeed. Dixie didnt. Dixie had numerous opportunities and botched them all in ways everyone saw coming, and eventually if you do that enough, it's not going to look like you're trying.
And I'm sorry if anybody here disagrees, but point blank: when you are actively not paying talent and production on time for years, when you're screwing over 3 TV networks yearly for 3 years, when you're fucking over your friend you knew for years who wanted the company and trusted you, when you have to sell part of your library to a network and fuck them over on payment at the same time, when you're not even paying taxes and fucking over the government of the state you're run in...you're not trying to succeed. At all.

Don't click that spoiler unless you want proof Mojo's been doing 'that' thing since the NXT early Hype Bro days.
They already had him and he got fired for retweeting and tweeting at me. seriously.

Honestly that's what I am amazed with what wrestling attracts.
It attracts people that want fame but don't want to risk anything. A sports athlete, entertainer, or business leader risks failure when trying to succeed.
By all accounts since summerslam 99 wrestling promotion figures on television don't want to risk what's real. Vince was super protective of the image of himself and his company, Steph inmasculates every one in her sight while promoting herself as a Geraldine Ferraro-Healer of sick children, HHH juiced and booked himself to be "The King of Kings" with the greatest wrestler of all time as his bitch in Ric Flair. Dixie is no different in that regard.
Something about wrestling attracts people who failed or simply aren't good enough without completely controling the facts or image in their favor.
Dixie was that. She essentially used TNA as a vanity project with no desire to make money, make a product, or have a vision. Without the false prestige of being a TV figure or a wrestling promoter what is she? She's a office worker with rich parents. But with a worked sport comes a worked persona.
Its why people get addicted to wrestling and why people like Jake The Snake can never let go.

They had to scan Kalistos head and because of a glitch looks like he's been unmasked.

I'm sad they included the black eye makeup for Kane, but not the tuft of curly hair he had when he unmasked in 2003.
Craziest thing to me is guess who was the one to unmask Kane? If you didn't already know.
You know maybe you would give that to some up and comer to get him some heat or you know not unmask somebody who was a draw till that point.
The person who Sat next to Vince and booked himself to go over with Ric Flair's belt.

I don't know unmasked Sin Cara doesn't really look like Hunico. Maybe they just used general scans.

I'm done with people arguing that Naomi is great or underrated, I mean it wasn't totally on her but still after all these years that shit should be inexcusable.
Because I was awake for 28 hours and clearly brain farted.

Wehn did Broch begin to regret his putting a weiner on his chest?
so boys
let's say you were a wrestler, what are some ideas you have that would make a good promo?
i bring it up just cos i had a fun little idea right this moment. if i was a wrestler i'd come out to my music, cut it off, and demand the ring announcer take longer saying my name. drag out every syllable, then when he/she did it, i'd say NOT LONG ENOUGH. DO IT AGAIN. and then keep doing that a few times until the face came out to kick my ass. i think that'd be a blast.

He's the only one that doesn't look like himself, I dunno I feel that Kalisto face is a bit too specific not to be him.
